UJosefa wayeseyala ukuba amasaka abo agcwaliswe ngamabele , kubuyiselwe imali yalowo nalowo esakeni lakhe , baphiwe umphako endleleni; kwenziwa njalo kubo.

Kwathi sesifike endlini yezihambi , savula amasaka ethu ; bheka, imali yalowo nalowo yayisemlonyeni wesaka lakhe , imali yethu ngokulinganiswa kwayo; sesiyibuyisile ngesandla sethu.

Wayala inceku yendlu yakhe , wathi: Gcwalisa amasaka alawa madoda ngokudla okulingene namandla abo okuthwala , ufake imali yalowo nalowo emlonyeni wesaka lakhe.

Uma umuntu enikeza kumakhelwane wakhe imali noma impahla ukuba ayilondoloze, bese yebiwa endlini yalowo muntu , isela, uma lifunyanwa, liyakukhokha kuphindwe kabili.

Uma ubona imbongolo yalowo okuzondayo ilele phansi komt hwalo wayo, wena-ke bese wukhetha ukuyiyeka, woyikhumula nokuyikhumula ninaye.

Abetha amacilongo angamakhulu amathathu, uJehova wabhekisa inkemba yalowo nalowo ngakumngane wakhe nakulo ikamu lonke ; ikamu labaleka kwaze kwaba seBeti Shitha ngaseSerera , laze lafika emkhawulweni we -Abela Mehola ngaseThabati.

UDavide wayeyindodana yalowo mEfrati waseB etlehema Juda ogama lakhe lalinguJese ; wayenamadodana ayisishiyagalombili ; lowo muntu wayemdala ezinsukwini zikaSawule phakathi kwabantu.

Kwathi emva kwalokho indodana yalowo mfelokazi , umnikazindlu, yagula; ukugula kwayo kwaba namandla kangaka ngangokuba yayingasenakho ukuphefumula.

Ngiyakumbizela inkemba kuzo zonke izintaba zami , isho iNkosi uJehova , inkemba yalowo nalowo imelane nomfowabo.

Kepha uma umuntu ethi kini : Lokhu kuhlatshelwe izithombe , ningakudli ngenxa yalowo okushiloyo nangenxa kanembeza,
