Yaradiliş 42
1 Yaqub öyrəndi ki, Misirdə taxıl var. O öz oğullarına dedi: «Nə üçün bir-birinizə baxırsınız?»
When someone told Jacob that there was grain in Egypt that people could buy, he said to his sons, “(Why do you just sit there looking at each other?/Do not just sit there looking at each other!) [RHQ] We need some grain!”
2 Yenə dedi: «Mən eşitdim ki, Misirdə taxıl var, gedib oradan bizim üçün taxıl alın ki, ölməyib yaşayaq».
He said to them, “Someone told me that there is grain for sale in Egypt. Go down there and buy some for us, in order that we will not die!”
3 Yusifin on qardaşı taxıl almaq üçün Misirə getdi.
So Joseph’s ten [older] brothers went down to Egypt to buy some grain.
4 Ancaq Yaqub Yusifin qardaşı Binyamini qardaşları ilə birgə göndərmədi, çünki fikirləşirdi ki, onun başına bir fəlakət gələ bilər.
But Jacob did not send Benjamin, Joseph’s [younger] brother, to go with the others, because he was afraid/worried that something terrible might happen to him like what happened to Joseph.
5 Taxıl almağa gələnlər arasında İsrailin oğulları da var idi, çünki Kənan torpağında da aclıq hökm sürürdü.
So Jacob’s other sons went down from Canaan to Egypt to buy grain, and others from there went too, because there was a famine in Canaan also.
6 Yusif ölkənin başçısı idi və ölkənin bütün əhalisinə də taxılı özü satırdı. Yusifin qardaşları gəlib onun önündə üzlərini yerə qoyub səcdə etdilər.
At that time Joseph was the governor of Egypt. He was the one who sold grain to people who came from all over Egypt and from many other countries [HYP] to buy grain. So when Joseph’s brothers arrived, [they were told that it was necessary for them to talk with Joseph. So they went to him and] prostrated themselves before him with their faces to the ground.
7 Yusif qardaşlarını görüb tanıdı, ancaq onlarla yad adam kimi rəftar edərək sərt danışdı. Yusif onlardan soruşdu: «Haradan gəlirsiniz?» Onlar dedilər: «Ərzaq almaq üçün Kənan torpağından gəlirik».
As soon as Joseph saw his brothers, he recognized them. But he pretended that he did not know them. He spoke harshly to them, saying, “Where do you come from?” One of them replied, “We have come from Canaan, to buy some grain.”
8 Yusif qardaşlarını tanıdı, amma onlar Yusifi tanımadılar.
Although Joseph recognized his brothers, they did not recognize him.
9 Yusif qardaşları barədə gördüyü yuxuları xatırlayıb onlara dedi: «Siz casussunuz, ölkənin zəif yerlərini öyrənmək üçün gəlmisiniz».
And then Joseph remembered what he had dreamed about them many years previously. [But he decided not to tell them yet that he was their younger brother]. He said to them, “You are spies! You have come to find out whether we will be able to defend ourselves [if you attack us]!”
10 Qardaşları ona dedilər: «Xeyr, ey ağamız, qulların yalnız ərzaq almaq üçün gəliblər.
One of them replied, “No, sir! We have come to buy grain.
11 Biz hamımız bir adamın oğullarıyıq. Biz təmiz adamlarıq, qulların casus deyil».
We are all sons of one man. We are honest men, not spies.”
12 Ancaq Yusif onlara dedi: «Xeyr, siz ölkənin zəif yerlərini öyrənmək üçün gəlmisiniz».
He said to them, “[I do not believe you]. You have come just to see whether we would be able to defend ourselves if we were attacked!”
13 Onlar dedilər: «Biz qulların on iki qardaşıq və Kənan torpağında bir adamın oğullarıyıq. Kiçik qardaşımız indi atamızın yanındadır, bir qardaşımız isə yoxa çıxıb».
But one of them replied, “No, that is not true! Originally there were twelve of us who were brothers, the sons of one man. Our younger brother is with our father. One [younger] brother has died. [EUP]”
14 Yusif onlara dedi: «Hər şey mən dediyim kimidir: siz casussunuz,
Joseph replied, “[You are lying! I think] it is just as I told you. You are spies!
15 ancaq mən sizi belə yoxlayacağam: fironun canına and olsun ki, kiçik qardaşınız buraya gəlməsə, siz buradan gedə bilməyəcəksiniz.
But this is how I will determine whether what you are saying is true. I think that as surely as the king lives, you are spies. And you will not leave this place until your youngest brother comes here!
16 Aranızdan bir nəfəri göndərin ki, qardaşınızı gətirsin, siz isə burada saxlanacaqsınız. Onda sizin düz deyib-demədiyiniz bilinəcək. Yoxsa fironun canına and olsun ki, siz casussunuz».
Send one of your group to go and get your younger brother and bring him here. I will put the rest of you in prison, in order that I may test what you have said to find out whether what you are telling me is true. If the one who goes does not bring your younger brother here, then, just as surely as the king lives, it will be clear that you are lying and that you are spies.”
17 Yusif üç gün onları zindanda saxladı.
Then Joseph put them all in prison for three days.
18 Üçüncü gün Yusif onlara dedi: «Dediyimə əməl edib canınızı qurtarın, çünki mən Allahdan qorxuram.
On the third day, Joseph went to the prison and said to them, “I am a man who fears that God [will punish me if I do not do what I promise]. So do what I tell you, and I will spare your lives.
19 Əgər siz təmiz adamsınızsa, qoy qardaşlarınızdan biri həbs olunduğunuz yerdə qalsın, siz isə gedib ailələrinizi aclıqdan qurtarmaq üçün taxıl aparın.
If you are honest men, let one of your brothers stay here in prison, and the rest of you can take some grain back to your families who are very hungry because of the famine.
20 Sonra kiçik qardaşınızı mənim yanıma gətirin. Beləcə düz dediyinizi biləcəyəm və canınızı qurtaracaqsınız». Qardaşlar belə də etdilər.
But if you come back here again, you must bring your youngest brother to me, so that you can prove that what you told me is true, and as a result I will not have you executed.” So they agreed to do that.
21 Onlar bir-birlərinə dedilər: «Doğrudan da, biz qardaşımızın qarşısında təqsirkarıq. O bizə yalvardığı vaxt çəkdiyi əziyyəti gördük, ancaq ona qulaq asmadıq. Buna görə də başımıza bu bəla gəldi».
They said to each other, “It is surely because of what we did to our [younger] brother that (we are being punished/God is punishing us)! We saw that he [SYN] was very distressed when he pleaded with us not to harm him. But we did not pay any attention to him, and that is why we are having this trouble!”
22 Ruven onlara belə cavab verdi: «Mən demədimmi uşağa pislik etməyin, lakin siz mənə qulaq asmadınız. İndi isə onun qanına görə cəza çəkirik».
Reuben said to them, “I told you not to harm the boy [RHQ], but you did not pay attention to what I said! Now we are being (paid back/punished) for killing him [MTY]!”
23 Qardaşları Yusifin onları başa düşdüyünü bilmirdilər, çünki onlar tərcüməçi vasitəsilə danışırdılar.
While they were talking with Joseph, they were speaking through (an interpreter/someone who knew their language and the Egyptian language), but when they said these things among themselves, they were speaking in their own language, and they did not know that Joseph could understand their language, and that he could understand what they were saying.
24 Yusif onların yanından kənara çəkilib ağladı. Sonra qardaşlarının yanına qayıdıb onlarla söhbət etdi. Aralarından Şimeonu götürüb qardaşlarının gözü qabağında onun əl-qolunu bağladı.
[Because of what they said, Joseph realized that they admitted that what they had done to him many years previously was wrong]. He could not keep from crying, [and he did not want them to see him crying], so he left them and went outside the room and began to cry. But then he returned to them and talked to them again. Then he took Simeon, and while they were watching, he told his servants to tie him up. He left Simeon in the prison and told the others that they could go.
25 Yusif əmr etdi ki, onların çuvalları taxılla doldurulsun, hər birinin verdiyi pul da öz çuvalına qoyulsun və onlara yol üçün azuqə verilsin. Belə də edildi.
Joseph told his servants to fill the men’s sacks with grain, but he also told them to put the money that each one had paid for the grain in the top of his sack. He also told them to give them food to eat along the way. After the servants did those things for Joseph’s older brothers,
26 Qardaşlar taxıllarını eşşəklərinin belinə yükləyib oradan getdilər.
his older brothers loaded the sacks of grain on their donkeys and left.
27 Onlardan biri gecələdiyi yerdə eşşəyinə yem vermək üçün çuvalını açanda öz pulunu gördü: pul çuvalın ağzında idi.
At the place where they stopped to sleep that night, one of them opened his sack to get some grain for his donkey. He was amazed to see his money in the top of the sack.
28 O, qardaşlarına dedi: «Pulum özümə qaytarılıb, budur, o, çuvalımın içindədir». Qardaşların ürəyi həyəcana düşdü və onlar qorxa-qorxa bir-birlərinə dedilər: «Allah bizim başımıza nə iş gətirdi?»
He exclaimed to his brothers, “Someone has returned my money! Here it is in my sack!” They started shaking with fear, and said to each other, “What is this that God has done to us?”
29 Onlar Kənan torpağına, ataları Yaqubun yanına gəldilər və başlarına gələn bütün hadisələri ona danışıb dedilər:
When they returned to their father in Canaan land, they told him all that had happened to them. One of them said,
30 «O ölkənin başçısı olan adam bizimlə sərt danışdı, bizi ölkəyə gələn casuslar hesab etdi.
“The man who governs the whole land of Egypt talked very harshly to us. He acted toward us as though we were spying on his country.
31 Ona dedik: “Biz təmiz adamlarıq, casus deyilik.
But we told him, ‘We are honest men! We are not spies.
32 Biz bir atanın oğulları, on iki qardaşıq. Bir qardaşımız yoxa çıxıb, biri də indi Kənan torpağında atamızın yanındadır”.
Originally there were twelve of us who were brothers, the sons of one father. One has died [EUP], and our youngest brother is with our father in Canaan.’
33 O ölkənin başçısı olan adam bizə dedi: “Sizin təmiz adam olduğunuzu bundan biləcəyəm: qardaşlarınızdan birini yanımda qoyub, ailələrinizi aclıqdan qurtarmaq üçün taxıl götürərək gedin.
The man who is the governor of the land [did not believe us], so he said to us, ‘This is how I will know if you are truly honest men: Leave one of your brothers here with me. Then the rest of you can take some grain for your families that are starving from hunger and go.
34 Sonra kiçik qardaşınızı yanıma gətirin. O zaman sizin casus deyil, təmiz adam olduğunuzu biləcəyəm. Onda qardaşınızı sizə təhvil verəcəyəm və ölkədə alver edə bilərsiniz”».
But when you return, bring your youngest brother to me, in order that I will know that you are not spies, but instead, that you are honest men. Then I will release your brother for you. And then you can buy whatever you want in this country.’”
35 Qardaşlar çuvallarını boşaldarkən gördülər ki, hər kəsin çuvalında pul kisəsi var. Özləri və onların atası pul kisələrini görəndə qorxdular.
As they were emptying their sacks, they were surprised that in each man’s sack was his pouch of money! When they and their father saw all the pouches of money, they were frightened.
36 Ataları Yaqub onlara dedi: «Siz məni övladsız qoydunuz. Yusif yox, Şimeon yox, Binyamini də aparacaqsınız. Bütün bunları mənim başıma gətirmək istəyirsiniz».
Their father Jacob said to them, “You have caused two of my children to be taken from me! Joseph is dead, and Simeon is gone! And now you want to take Benjamin from me! It is I who am suffering because of all these things that are happening!”
37 Ruven atasına belə dedi: «Əgər onu sənin yanına gətirməsəm, iki oğlumu öldürərsən. Onu mənim ixtiyarıma ver, mən də onu qaytarıb yanına gətirəcəyəm».
Reuben said to his father, “I will be responsible for Benjamin. [I will take him to Egypt and] bring him back to you. Let me take care of him. If I do not bring Benjamin back to you, you may kill both of my sons.”
38 Yaqub dedi: «Oğlum sizinlə getməyəcək, çünki onun qardaşı ölüb və tək qalıb. Əgər getdiyiniz yolda onun başına bir iş gəlsə, mənim ağ saçlı başımı kədər içində ölülər diyarına endirəcəksiniz». (Sheol h7585)
But Jacob said, “No, I will not let my son go down there with you. His [older] brother is dead, and he is the only [one of my wife Rachel’s] sons who is left! If something harms him while you are traveling, you would cause me, a gray-haired old man, to die because of sorrow.” (Sheol h7585)
