UGenesise 41:9-36 CZB24

Induna yabaphathizitsha yasikhuluma kuFaro, yathi: Lamuhla ngicabanga iziphambeko zami; UFaro wazithukuthelela izinceku zakhe, wangifaka esitokisini endlini yenduna yemilindankosi, mina nenduna yababhaki. Saphupha iphupho ngabusuku bunye, mina naye; saphupha, kwaba yilowo nalowo njengokuchazwa kwephupho lakhe. Kwakukhona kanye lathi ijaha elingumHebheru, inceku yenduna yemilindankosi; samtshela lokho, wasichazela amaphupho ethu; wachaza kwaba yilowo nalowo njengephupho lakhe. Kwasekusithi njengokusichasisela kwakhe, kwaba njalo; mina wangibuyisela esikhundleni sami, yena wamxhoma. UFaro wayesethumela wambiza uJosefa, baphangisa ukumkhipha emgodini; waphuca, wagqoka izingubo zakhe, wangena kuFaro. UFaro wayesethi kuJosefa: “Ngiphuphe iphupho, akakho ongalichaza; futhi ngizwile uthi uyakwazi ukuqonda iphupho ukuze ulichaze. UJosefa wamphendula uFaro, wathi: “Akukho kimi; uNkulunkulu uyakumphendula uFaro ngokuthula.” UFaro wasesithi kuJosefa: Ephutsheni lami, khangela, ngimi osebeni lomfula. Bheka, kwakhuphuka emfuleni izinkomo eziyisikhombisa, ezikhuluphele, zibukeka kahle; badla edlelweni. Bheka, kwakhuphuka ezinye izinkomo eziyisikhombisa emva kwazo, zimbi, ezimbi kakhulu, zizacile, engingakaze ngizibone ezweni lonke laseGibithe ngenxa yobubi. Izinkomo ezondile nezibuthakathaka zadla izinkomo eziyisikhombisa ezikhuluphele. Kwathi sebedlile, akwaziwa ukuthi balidlile; kodwa zazisezimbi njengasekuqaleni. Ngakho ngavuka. Ngabona ephusheni lami, bheka, kwamila izikhwebu eziyisikhombisa ohlangeni lunye, zigcwele, zizinhle; Bheka, kwavela emva kwazo izinhlamvu eziyisikhombisa ezibunile, ezincane, zipheshulwa ngumoya wasempumalanga. Izikhwebu ezondile zadla izikhwebu eziyisikhombisa ezinhle, ngazitshela izanusi; kodwa kwakungekho owayengangichazela. UJosefa wasesithi kuFaro: Iphupho likaFaro linye: UNkulunkulu wamambulela uFaro azakukwenza. Izinkomo eziyisikhombisa ezinhle ziyiminyaka eyisikhombisa; lemithambo eyisikhombisa emihle iyiminyaka eyisikhombisa; iphupho linye. Izinkomo eziyisikhombisa ezacile nezibuthakathaka ezakhuphuka emva kwazo zazineminyaka eyisikhombisa ubudala; imithambo eyisikhombisa engenalutho evunguza umoya wasempumalanga iyakuba yiminyaka eyisikhombisa yendlala. Nanti izwi engalikhuluma kuFaro: Lokho uNkulunkulu ahlose ukukwenza, uyakubonisa uFaro. Bheka, kukhona iminyaka eyisikhombisa yenala enkulu ezweni lonke laseGibithe; Emva kwayo kuyakuvela iminyaka eyisikhombisa yendlala; futhi yonke inala iyokhohlakala ezweni laseGibhithe; indlala iyakudla izwe; Inala ayisayikwaziwa ezweni ngenxa yendlala ezolilandela; ngoba kuzoba nzima kakhulu. Ngakho iphupho likaFaro laphindwa kabili; kungenxa yokuthi indaba inqunywe nguNkulunkulu, futhi uNkulunkulu uzoyenza maduzane. Manje uFaro makafune indoda ehlakaniphileyo nehlakaniphileyo ayimise phezu kwezwe laseGibhithe. UFaro makenze lokhu, abeke izinduna phezu kwezwe, athathe okwesihlanu kwezwe laseGibithe ngeminyaka eyisikhombisa yenala. Mababuthe konke ukudla kweminyaka emihle ezayo, babuthe amabele phansi kwesandla sikaFaro, bagcine ukudla emizini; Lokho kudla kuyoba ukudla kwezwe iminyaka eyisikhombisa yendlala eyoba khona ezweni laseGibhithe; funa izwe libhujiswe yindlala.
