U-Israyeli wathi kuJosefa : Abafowenu abawalusi umhlambi eShekemi na ? Woza, ngiyakukuthuma kubo. Wathi kuye: Ngilapha.

Ngakho hamba , ngiyakukuthuma kuFaro ukuba ukhiphe eGibithe abantu bami, abantwana bakwa-Israyeli.

UJehova wathi kuSamuweli : Uyakumkhalela kuze kube nini na ? Ngokuba ngimlahlile ukuba angabe esaba yinkosi phezu kuka -Israyeli. Gcwalisa uphondo lwakho ngamafutha , uhambe; ngiyakukuthuma kuJese waseBetlehema, ngokuba ngizibonele inkosi phakathi kwamadodana akhe.
