19. Ukuze ndiqonde ukuba ninyanisile omnye wenu uza kuhlala apha kule ntolongo benigcinwe kuyo, abanye bona bagoduke nengqolowa le niyithengileyo, bayise kuloo mawenu alambileyo.

20. Kodwa kufuneka nimzise apha kum loo mninawa wenu yena. Loo nto iya kundibonisa ukuba beninyanisile, ndinganibulali ke.”Bavuma,

21. kambe bethetha bodwa besithi: “Kunje-nje-nje kungenxa yento esayenza kumninawa wethu uJosefu. Asizange simhoye esibongoza ukuba simncede kwimbandezelo awayekuyo. Yiyo loo nto nathi sibandezelekile nje.”
