8. Waza wamnika umnqophiso wolwaluko; wathi yena ekuwo, wazala uIsake, wamalùsa ngomhla wesibhozo, waza uIsake wamenjenjalo uYakobi, waza noYakobi wabenjenjalo oomawokhulu abalishumi elinababini.
9. Bathi oomawokhulu, bemmonele uYosefu, bathengisa ngaye, bamsingisa eYiputa; kodwa uThixo waba naye,
10. wamncothula kuzo zonke iimbandezelo zakhe, wambabala ngobulumko phambi koFaro, ukumkani waseYiputa; wammisa ukuba abe yirhuluneli phezu kweYiputa nendlu yakhe iphela.
