Ma Josef gwara ha sị, “Mba! Unu bịara ịchọpụta akụkụ obodo anyị nke a na-echezighị nke ọma.”
13 Isaan garuu akkana jedhanii deebisan; “Nu garboonni kee obboloota kudha lama, ilmaanuma abbaa tokkoo kan biyya Kanaʼaan jiraatuu ti. Kunoo quxisuun hunda keenyaa amma abbaa keenya bira jira; inni tokko garuu hin jiru.”
Ha zara sị ya, “Ndị ohu gị dị ụmụnne iri na abụọ. Ọ bụkwa otu nna mụrụ anyị niile. Nna anyị na nwanne anyị nta, onye ikpeazụ ọ mụrụ nọ na Kenan ugbu a. Ma otu onye nʼime anyị anwụọla.”
14 Yoosef garuu akkana jedheen; “Akkuma ani isiniin jedhe sana isin basaastota!
Josef sịrị, “Ihe unu na-akọ na-egosi na unu bụ ndị nnyopụta, dịka m gwara unu.
