Mui 45
1 Yousefe da dimusa: dawa: beba: le, bu ea hawa: hamosu da amo hou ba: sa: besa: le, e da ili huluane amo sesei fisima: ne sia: i. E da ea yolalali ilima e da Yousefe adoloba, dunu eno da hame ba: i.
Joseph was not able to control his feelings any longer. He did not want to cry in front of his servants, so he said to them loudly, “All of you go outside!” After they went outside, there was no one else there with Joseph when he told his brothers who he was.
2 E bagadewane dibiba: le, Idibidi dunu ilia da nabi. Amalalu, ilia da amo sia: ne iasu Felou ea diasuga adola asi.
He cried so loudly that the people of Egypt who were outside heard it, and even the people in the king’s palace heard it.
3 Yousefe da ea yolalali ilima amane sia: i, “Na da Yousefe. Na ada da wali hahawane esalabala?” Be ea yolalali da amo sia: nababeba: le, ilia da bagadewane beda: iba: le, bu adole imunu da ilima hamedei.
Joseph said to his brothers, “I am Joseph! Is our father still alive?” But his brothers were not able to reply, because they were frightened because of what he said.
4 Be Yousefe da ilima amane sia: i, “Nolalali! Dilia nama gadenena misa!” Ilia da misini, e eno adole i, “Na da dilia eya Yousefe amo dilia Idibidi sogega bidi lai.
Then Joseph said to his brothers, “Come close to me!” When they came closer, he said, “I am your brother Joseph! I am the one you sold to traders who brought me here to Egypt!
5 Dilia mae fofogadigima, amola mae da: i dioma! Amola dilia wadela: i houba: le, wadela: i fawane ninima doaga: i, mae dawa: ma! Gode Hi da dilia loboga, na guiguda: eno dunu ilia esalusu gaga: ma: ne, asunasi dagoi.
But now, do not be distressed, and do not be angry with yourselves for having sold me to people who brought me here, because it was to save you from dying [because of the famine] that God sent me here ahead of you.
6 Wali da ha: i bagade ode ageyadu fawane. Ode biyale gala eno amoga osobo da hame gidinamu amo ha: i manu hame faimu, amo hou ba: mu.
There has been a famine in this country for two years, and it will continue for five more years, so that no one will plow ground, and there will be no crops to harvest.
7 Gode da na amo dili bisili masunusa: , asunasi dagoi. Bai E da dili amola diligaga fa: no lalelegemu mano, amo bogomu higa: i hodosa.
But God sent me here ahead of you, to keep you from starving, and to make sure that your descendants will survive.
8 Amaiba: le houdafa da dilia na guiguda: hame asunasi. Gode Hifawane da na asunasi. Gode hamobeba: le, na da wali Felou ea bisili ouligisu hina dunu hamoi dagoi. Na da ea soge huluane ouligisa. Na da Idibidi fi huluane ilima hina esala.
Therefore, it was not you who sent me here; it was God who sent me here! He has caused me to become like a father to the king. I am in charge of everything in his palace and the governor of everyone in Egypt!
9 Amaiba: le, hedolo na adama buhagili, ema ea mano Yousefe amane sia: sa amo adoma, ‘Gode da na Idibidi dunu huluanema hina bagade hamoi dagoi. Wahadafa nama misa.
Now return to my father quickly, and say to him, ‘This is what your son Joseph says: “God has caused me to become the governor over the whole land of Egypt. Come down to me immediately!
10 Di da Gousiene sogega na gadenene fimu da defea. Di, dia mano, dia aowa, dia sibi, dia goudi, dia bulamagau amola dia liligi gagui huluane.
You can live in the Goshen region. You and your children and your grandchildren, your sheep and goats and cattle, and everything that you own, will be near me.
11 Di da Gousiene sogega esalea, na da di ouligisa esalumu, amo dawa: ma. Wali ha: i bagade ode biyale gala eno ba: mu. Di, dia sosogo fi, amola dia lai gebo, amo huluane ha: ga bogomu na bagadewane higa: i hodosa.”
Since there will be five more years of famine, I will make sure that you have food. If you do not come here, you and your family and all of your servants will starve. [EUP]”’
12 Yousefe da eno amane sia: i, “Defea! Wali dilia huluane amola di Bediamini, da noga: le dawa: Na da dafawane Yousefe e.
“Look closely, and all of you can see, including my brother Benjamin, that it is really I, Joseph, who am speaking to you.
13 Na ada noga: le adoma amane, ‘Na da guiguda: Idibidi soge ganodini gasa bagade gala. Dilia ba: i liligi huluane ema adoma. Amasea, hedolowane e nama oule misa.’”
Go and tell my father about how greatly I am honored here in Egypt. And tell him about everything else that you have seen. And bring my father down here quickly!”
14 E da Bediamini ha: giwane nonogone dinanu. Bediamini amola Yousefe nonogone dinanu.
Then he threw his arms around his [younger] brother Benjamin’s neck and cried. And Benjamin hugged him and cried.
15 Amanoba, dinanuwane, e da yolalali huluane ouga: ne, nonogoi. Amalalu, yolalali da ema sia: dasu.
And then as he kissed his older brothers [on their cheeks], he cried. After that, his brothers started to talk with him.
16 Felou ea diasu fi da Yousefe yolalali da ema doaga: i, amo nababeba: le, hahawane ba: i.
Someone went to the palace and told the news that Joseph’s brothers had come. The king and all his officials were pleased.
17 Felou da Yousefema amane sia: i, “Diolalali ilima amane sia: ma, ilia da ilia ohe baligiga ha: i manu legele, hedolowane Ga: ina: ne sogega buhagima.
The king said to Joseph, “Tell your brothers this: ‘Put loads of grain on your animals and return to the Canaan region.
18 Amalalu, ilia ada amola fi huluane, guiguda: bu oule misa. Na da soge baligili ida: iwane Idibidi soge ganodini, amo ilima imunu. Ilia baligiliwane hahawane esalusu ba: mu.
Then bring your father and your families back here. I will give you the best land in Egypt, and you will have the best food in the land to eat.’
19 Ilia Idibidi gaguli fula ahoasu (bulamagau amoga hiougi) amoga ilia uda amola mano fonobahadi, amoga fila heda: ma: ne, amo oule masunu da defea. Ilia eda amola, bu oule misa: ne sia: ma.
“Also tell this to your brothers: ‘Take some carts from Egypt to carry your children and your wives, and get them and your father and come back here quickly.
20 Ilia liligi eno ilia sogega fisibiba: le, ilima mae da: i dioma: ne sia: ma. Liligi baligili ida: iwane Idibidi soge ganodini amo ninia da ilima imunu.”
Do not worry about bringing your possessions, because the best things in Egypt will be yours. Because of that, you will not need to bring any of your things from Canaan.’”
21 Ya: igobe ea mano da amo sia: defele hamosu. Yousefe da ilima gaguli fula ahoasu i, amola ilia logoga moma: ne ha: i manu i.
Jacob’s sons did what the king suggested. Joseph gave them carts and food to eat along the way, as the king had ordered.
22 E da abula afadafa salima: ne, ilima afae afae i. Be Bediaminima e da abula biyale salima: ne i, amola silifa muni fage 300 agoane i.
To each of them he gave new clothes, but he gave 300 pieces of silver and five sets of new clothes to Benjamin!
23 E da ea adama dougi nabuane gala amo da: iya, Idibidi liligi ida: iwane gala ligisi, amo asunasi. Amola e da dougi nabuane eno amo da: iya gagoma, bali, agi amola logoga moma: ne ha: i manu eno i.
And this is what he sent to his father: Ten male donkeys, loaded with some of the best goods that come from Egypt, and ten female donkeys loaded with grain and bread and other food for his father’s trip to Egypt.
24 E da yolalali asunasi. E da ilima amane sia: i, “Dilia logoga ahoasea, mae sia: ga gegema!”
Then he sent his brothers on their way, saying to them “Do not quarrel along the way!”
25 Ilia Idibidi yolesili, ilia eda Ya: igobe amo Ga: ina: ne sogega esalu, ema buhagi.
So they left Egypt and came to their father Jacob in Canaan.
26 Ilia ema amane sia: i, “Yousefe da esala. E da Idibidi fi huluane ilima hina esala.” Ya: igobe da bogomuwane fofogadigili, ilia sia: dafawaneyale dawa: mu hamedei ba: i.
One of them told him, “Joseph is still alive! In fact, he is the governor over all of Egypt!” Jacob was extremely astonished; he could not believe that it was true.
27 Be ilia Yousefe ea sia: huluane ema olelebeba: le, amola gaguli fula ahoasu Yousefe da e Idibidi sogega oule masa: ne iasi amo ba: beba: le, e da uhi.
But they told him everything that Joseph had said to them, and Jacob saw the carts that Joseph had sent to carry him and his family and possessions to Egypt. Then their father Jacob’s shock ended.
28 E amane sia: i, “Na gofe Yousefe da esala! Na da Godema eno hame adole ba: mu! Na da mae bogole e ba: la masunu!”
He said, “What you have said is enough to convince me! My son Joseph is still alive, and I will go and see him before I die!”
