Ngasemuva uHesironi wangena kuyo indodakazi kaMakiri uyise kaGileyadi; wamthatha eseneminyaka engamashumi ayisithupha; wamzalela uSegubi.

Kuthe eseneminyaka engamashumi amane ezelwe , kwafika enhliziyweni yakhe ukuba abamele abafowabo, abantwana bakwa-Israyeli.

Eseneminyaka eyishumi nambili, bakhuphuka njengokomthetho womkhosi.

U-Abrahama wayesemdala, eseneminyaka eminingi; uJehova wayembusisile u-Abrahama kukho konke.

Kwathi u -Esawu eseneminyaka engamashumi amane , wathatha umfazi uJuditi indodakazi kaBeri umHeti noBasemati indodakazi ka-Eloni umHeti.

Lokhu kuyindaba kaJakobe . UJosefa eseneminyaka eyishumi nesikhombisa wawalusa umhlambi kayise enabafowabo; engumfana nje wayekuwo amadodana kaBiliha nakuwo amadodana kaZilipa omkayise; uJosefa waletha kuyise imibiko emibi ngabo.
