Basebenika isilayezelo kuJosefa besithi: Uyihlo walaya engakafi, esithi:
17 Ga abin da za ku ce wa Yusuf, ‘Na roƙe ka, ka gafarta wa’yan’uwanka zunubai da laifofin da suka aikata na abubuwa marasa kyau da suka yi maka.’ Yanzu muna roƙonka ka gafarta zunuban bayin Allah na mahaifinka.” Sa’ad da saƙonsu ya zo masa, sai Yusuf ya yi kuka.
Lizakutsho kanje kuJosefa lithi: Ngiyakucela, akuxolele isiphambeko sabafowenu lesono sabo, ngoba bakwenzela okubi; khathesi-ke ake uxolele isiphambeko sezinceku zikaNkulunkulu kayihlo. UJosefa wasekhala inyembezi nxa bekhuluma kuye.

20 Kun yi niyya ku yi mini lahani, amma Allah ya nufe wannan ya zama alheri don yă cika abin da yanzu yake faruwa, ceton rayuka masu yawa.
Kodwa lina laceba okubi kimi, uNkulunkulu waceba ngokuhle, ukuze enze njengalamuhla, ukuze alondoloze abantu abanengi bephila.
21 Saboda haka, kada ku ji tsoro. Zan tanada muku da kuma’ya’yanku.” Ya sāke tabbatar musu, ya kuma yi musu magana ta alheri.
Khathesi-ke lingesabi; mina ngizalondla lina labantwanyana benu. Wasebaduduza, wakhuluma labo ngomusa.

23 Ya kuma ga tsara ta uku ta’ya’yan Efraim. Haka ma’ya’yan Makir ɗan Manasse, an haife su aka sa a gwiwoyin Yusuf.
UJosefa wasebona abantwana bakaEfrayimi abesizukulwana sesithathu; labantwana bakaMakiri indodana kaManase bazalelwa emadolweni kaJosefa.
