Yusufu obu yakuzire akafooka musaija murungi muno, nahabwekyo mukazi wa Potifa akagonza Yusufu kubyama nawe. Yusufu akamanya ngu kinu kibi muno kandi akaba atarukusobora kukikora. Kinu kikabihiiza muno muka Potifa. Iba obu yagarukire omuka, mukaziwe akamubihirra ngu: ‘Yusufu musaija mubi muno, agondeze kubyama nanyowe!’ Potifa akaikiriza ebya mukazi we, kandi akabihirirwa muno Yusufu.
