14. UYosefu wabuyela eYiputa ke, yena nabazalwana bakhe, nabo bonke abenyuka naye beya kumngcwaba uyise, emva kokungcwaba kwakhe uyise.
15. Ke kaloku abakhuluwa bakaYosefu babona ukuba uyise wabo ufile, bathi, Azi uYosefu uya kusitshutshisa na, abubuyisele kanye na kuthi bonke ububi esimenzele bona?
