25 Rakeri paakabereka Josefa, Jakobho akabva ati kuna Rabhani: “Chiregai ndiende kumusha kwangu nekunyika yangu.+ 26 Ndipei madzimai angu nevana vangu vandakashandira, kuti ndiende, nekuti imi munonyatsoziva mashandiro andakakuitirai.”+ 27 Rabhani akabva ati kwaari: “Kana wandinzwira nyasha ndapota hangu gara, nekuti ndiri kuona nezviratidzo kuti* Jehovha ari kundikomborera pamusana pako.” 28 Akawedzera kuti: “Ndiudze kuti unoda mubhadharo wei, ndikupe.”+ 29 Saka Jakobho akati kwaari: “Imi munoziva mashandiro andakakuitirai uye kuti zvipfuwo zvenyu zvakaita sei pandakanga ndichizvichengeta; + 30 makanga muine zvishoma ndisati ndauya, asi zvipfuwo zvenyu zvakawedzera zvikava zvizhinji, uye Jehovha akakukomborerai kubvira pandakasvika. Saka ndichashandirawo imba yangu riini?”+

31 Akabva ati: “Ndokupei?” Jakobho akati: “Hamufaniri kutombondibhadhara henyu! Mukangondiitira izvi, ndichatangazve kufudza zvipfuwo zvenyu uye kuzvichengeta. + 32 Ndichapfuura nepakati pezvipfuwo zvenyu zvese nhasi. Tsaurai makwai ese ane tumavara tudiki uye ane makamba-makamba, nemakwai ese matsvuku akasvibirira ari pakati pemakondohwe madiki. Uye pakati pembudzi, tsauraiwo hadzi dzese dzine makamba-makamba netumavara tudiki. Kubva iye zvino, izvi ndizvo zvichava mubhadharo wangu.+ 33 Kururama* kwangu kuchaonekwa pazuva ramuchauya kuzoona mubhadharo wangu; kana ndikawanikwa ndiine mbudzi hadzi dzisina tumavara tudiki kana dzisina makamba-makamba uye ndikawanikwa ndiine makondohwe madiki asiri matsvuku akasvibirira, ndinenge ndaba.”

34 Rabhani akabva ati: “Hapana chakaipa! Ngatiitei zvawataura izvozvo.”+ 35 Musi iwoyo akabva atsaura nhongo dzine mitsetse nedzine tumavara tudiki nembudzi hadzi dzese dzine makamba-makamba nedzine tumavara tudiki, uye pamakondohwe madiki akatsaura ese akanga aine pakachena neese matsvuku akasvibirira, ndokuzviisa mumaoko evanakomana vake. 36 Pashure paizvozvo akaendesa zvipfuwo zvake kure naJakobho nechinhambwe cherwendo rwemazuva matatu, uye Jakobho akanga achifudza zvipfuwo zvaRabhani zvakasara.

37 Jakobho akabva atema tumiti twemustorakisi, twemuarumondi, netwemupurani, ndokutukwatura-kwatura makwati kuti tuve tuchena mune dzimwe nzvimbo. 38 Akabva aisa tumiti tuya pamberi pezvipfuwo, maiyerera nemvura ichienda muzvinwiro, nemuzvinwiro zvacho, maiuya zvipfuwo kuzonwa mvura, kuti zvinzwe kuda mukono zvakatarisa tumiti twacho, pazvaiuya kuzonwa mvura.

39 Saka zvipfuwo zvainzwa kuda mukono zvakatarisa tumiti tuya, uye zvaibereka vana vane mitsetse, vane tumavara tudiki, nevane makamba-makamba. 40 Jakobho akabva atsaura makondohwe madiki, uye akaita kuti zvipfuwo zvitarise kune zvine mitsetse uye kune zvitsvuku zvese zvakasvibirira zvaiva pakati pezvaRabhani. Akabva aparadzanisa zvipfuwo zvake nezvaRabhani uye haana kuzozvisanganisa. 41 Uye pese paaiona zvipfuwo zvakasimba zvava kuda mukono, Jakobho aiisa tumiti tuya munoyerera mvura pamberi pezvipfuwo, kuti zvinzwe kuda mukono zviri pedyo netumiti. 42 Asi akanga asingaisi tumiti twacho pamberi pezvisina kusimba. Saka Rabhani aingowana zvisina kusimba, Jakobho achiwana zvakasimba.+

43 Uye pfuma yemurume wacho yakaramba ichingowedzera, akava nezvipfuwo zvakawanda nevarandarume nevarandakadzi vakawanda nengamera nemadhongi.+
