Ngobunye ubusuku bobabili, umphathindebe nombhakizinkwa benkosi yaseGibhithe, ababevalelwe ejele, yilowo nalowo waphupha; yilelo nalelo phupho lalichaza okuthile. Ngakusasa ekuseni lapho uJosefa efika kubo, wabona ukuthi bakhathazekile. Ngakho-ke wazibuza izinceku zikaFaro ezazinaye, zivalelwe endlini yomphathi wakhe, wathi: “Yini namuhla nibukeke nidangele na?” Bathi kuye: “Sibe namaphupho sobabili, akukho muntu ongasichazela wona.” UJosefa wathi kubo: “Ngabe incazelo ayiveli yini kuNkulunkulu na? Ngitsheleni amaphupho enu.” Ngakho-ke induna yabaphathindebe yamtshela uJosefa iphupho layo. Yathi kuye: “Ephusheni lami bekunesihlahla somvini phambi kwami, emvinini kukhona amagatsha amathathu. Kwathi eqeda nje ukubumba ayeseqhakaza, kwavela amahlukuzo amagilebhisi avuthiweyo kuwo. Indebe kaFaro ibisesandleni sami; ngawathatha amagilebhisi ngawakhamela endebeni kaFaro, ngase ngimnika esandleni uFaro.” UJosefa wathi kuye: “Nansi-ke incazelo yalo: amagatsha amathathu ayizinsuku ezintathu; zingakapheli izinsuku ezintathu uFaro uzokuphakamisa, akubuyisele esikhundleni sakho, uzomnika indebe yakhe esandleni, njengoba wawenza ngesikhathi usengumphathindebe. Uze ungikhumbule uma izinto sezikuhambela kahle, ungenzele umusa, uliphathe igama lami kuFaro, ukuze ngiphume kule ndawo. Ngokuba empeleni ngathunjwa ezweni lamaHebheru, nalapha angenzanga lutho olufanele ukuba bangifake kulo mgodi.” Lapho induna yababhakizinkwa ibona ukuthi incazelo ibe yinhle, yathi kuJosefa: “Nami ephusheni lami bekunamaqoma amathathu ezinkwa ezimhlophe ekhanda lami. Eqomeni elingaphezulu bekukhona yonke inhlobo yokudla kukaFaro, kodwa izinyoni bezikudla kuleli qoma ebelisekhanda lami.” UJosefa waphendula wathi: “Nansi incazelo yalo: amaqoma amathathu ayizinsuku ezintathu; ezinsukwini ezintathu uFaro uzokunquma ikhanda, akuphanyeke esigxotsheni, izinyoni zezulu zidle inyama yakho.”

Baphupha iphupho bobabili, kwaba yilowo nalowo iphupho lakhe ngabusuku bunye, yilowo nalowo ngokokuchazwa kwephupho lakhe, umphathizitsha nomphekizinkwa wenkosi yaseGibithe, ababeboshwe etilongweni. UJosefa wangena kubo ekuseni, wabona ukuthi badabukile. Wayesebuza izinceku zikaFaro ezazinaye zilindwe endlini yenkosi yakhe, ethi: “Ubuso benu budabukeleni namuhla na?” Bathi kuye: “Siphuphe iphupho, akakho ongalichaza.” UJosefa wathi kubo: “Ukuchaza akusikho okukaNkulunkulu na? Ake ningilandise lona.” Induna yabaphathizitsha yayisimlandisa uJosefa iphupho layo, yathi kuye: “Ephusheni lami kwakukhona umvini phambi kwami; emvinini kwakukhona amagatsha amathathu; wahluma qede wakhahlela, amahlukuzo awo athela izithelo. Indebe kaFaro yayisesandleni sami; ngathatha izithelo zomvini, ngazikhamela endebeni kaFaro, indebe ngayinikela esandleni sikaFaro.” Wathi uJosefa kuye: “Nakho ukuchazwa kwalo: lawo magatsha amathathu ayizinsuku ezintathu; zingakadluli izinsuku ezintathu, uFaro uzakuphakamisa ikhanda lakho, akubuyisele esikhundleni sakho; uzakunikela indebe esandleni sikaFaro njengokwenza kwakho kwakuqala, lapho wawungumphathizitsha wakhe. Kepha ngikhumbule, nxa usuhlezi kahle, ungenzele umusa, ungibike kuFaro, ungikhiphe kule ndlu. Ngokuba ngebiwa nokwebiwa ezweni lamaHeberu, nalapha futhi angenzanga lutho ukuba bangifake emgodini.” Kwathi induna yabaphekizinkwa ibona ukuthi lokho kuchazwa kwakukuhle, yathi kuJosefa: “Nakimi ephusheni lami kwakungathi kukhona amaqoma amathathu esinkwa esimhlophe ekhanda lami. Eqomeni elingaphezulu kwakukhona izinhlobo zonke zokudla kukaFaro; izinyoni zazikudla eqomeni eliphezu kwekhanda lami.” UJosefa waphendula wathi: “Lokhu kungukuchazwa kwalo: lawo maqoma amathathu ayizinsuku ezintathu; zingakadluli izinsuku ezintathu, uFaro uzakuphakamisa ikhanda lakho, alisuse kuwe, akuphanyeke emthini; izinyoni ziyakudla inyama yakho, ziyisuse kuwe.”

Baphupha iphupho bobabili, yilowo nalowo iphupho lakhe ngabusuku bunye, kwaba yilowo nalowo njengokuchazwa kwephupho lakhe, umphathizitsha nomphekizinkwa wenkosi yaseGibithe, owayeboshiwe etilongweni. UJosefa wangena kubo ekuseni, wababheka, bheka, babedabukile. Wasebuza izinceku zikaFaro ezazilaye egciniwe yendlu yenkosi yakhe, wathi: Kungani likhangeleka lilusizi kangaka lamuhla? Bathi kuye: “Siphuphe iphupho, akakho olichazayo.” UJosefa wathi kubo: “Izincazelo azikaNkulunkulu na? ngicela ungitshele. Induna yabaphathizitsha yamlandisa uJosefa iphupho layo, yathi kuye: “Ephusheni lami, nanto isivini phambi kwami; Emvinini kwakukhona izicucu ezintathu, okungathi umile, uqhakazile izimbali; amahlukuzo awo athela izithelo zomvini ezivuthiwe; indebe kaFaro yayisesandleni sami; ngathatha izithelo zomvini, ngazikhamela endebeni kaFaro, ngayinikela indebe esandleni sikaFaro. UJosefa wathi kuye: “Nanku ukuchazwa kwakho: Amagatsha amathathu ayizinsuku ezintathu; Kodwa phakathi kwezinsuku ezintathu uFaro uzaphakamisa ikhanda lakho, akubuyisele endaweni yakho; uyakubeka indebe kaFaro esandleni sakhe njengakuqala, usengumphathizitsha wakhe. Kodwa ngikhumbule, lapho kukuhambela kahle, ungibonise umusa, ungibize kuFaro, ungikhiphe kule ndlu. Ngokuba ngempela ngebiwa ezweni lamaHeberu; nalapha angenzanga lutho ukuthi bangangifaka emgodini. Kwathi induna yabaphekizinkwa ibona ukuthi ingcazelo yayinhle, yathi kuJosefa: “Nami ephusheni lami, bheka, nganginamaqoma amathathu amhlophe ekhanda lami.” Eqomeni eliphezulu kwakukhona zonke izinhlobo zenyama eyosiwe kaFaro; izinyoni zakudla eqomeni elisekhanda lami. UJosefa waphendula wathi: “Nanku ukuchazwa kwakho: oqoma abathathu bayizinsuku ezintathu.” Kodwa phakathi kwezinsuku ezintathu uFaro uzaphakamisa ikhanda lakho alisuse kuwe, akulengise emthini; izinyoni ziyakudla inyama yakho kuwe.
