< Chakruok 45 >
1 Josef ne ok nyal gengʼo mirima mane en-go e nyim joma ne tiyone. Kendo noywak matek niya, “Goluru ngʼato angʼata oko e nyima!” Kuom mano ne onge ngʼato angʼata mane nigi Josef kane ohulore ne owetene.
Then could Joseph not refrain himself before all those that stood by him; and he cried, Cause every man to go out from me. And there remained no man with him, while Joseph made himself known unto his brothers.
2 Kendo noywak matek ma jo-Misri nowinje, kendo jood Farao bende nowinjo wachno.
And he raised his voice in weeping; and the Egyptians heard it, and the house of Pharaoh heard it.
3 Josef nowacho ne owetene niya, “An Josef! Bende wuora pod ngima?” To owetene ne ok nyal dwoke, nikech luoro nomakogi ahinya e nyim Josef.
And Joseph said unto his brothers, I am Joseph; doth my father yet live? And his brothers could not answer him; for they were terrified at his presence.
4 Eka Josef nowacho ne owetene niya, “Biuru machiegni buta.” Kane gisetimo kamano, nowachonegi niya, “An owadu Josef mane uuso e piny Misri!
And Joseph said unto his brothers, Come near to me, I pray you; and they came near; and he said, I am Joseph your brother, whom ye sold into Egypt.
5 To koro, kik chunyu chandre kendo kik ucharu nine uusa ka nikech Nyasaye noora motelonu mondo ares ngimau.”
But now be not grieved, nor be angry with yourselves, that ye sold me hither; for in order to preserve life did God send me before you.
6 Kuom higni ariyo kech osebedo e piny, kendo kuom higni abich mabiro pur kata keyo ok nobedie.
For these two years hath the famine been already in the land; and there are yet five years, in which there will be neither ploughing nor harvesting.
7 Nyasaye noora motelonu mondo arit kothu modongʼ e piny kendo mondo ores ngimau gi resruok maduongʼ.
And God hath thus sent me before you to prepare for you a permanence on the earth, and to save your lives by a great deliverance.
8 “Kuom mano, ok un ema ne uora ka to Nyasaye ema ne oora. En ema noketo abedo wuon Farao, ruoth mar ode duto kendo jatelo mar jo-Misri duto.
So now it was not you that sent me hither, but God; and he hath made me a father to Pharaoh, and a lord for all his house, and a ruler throughout all the land of Egypt.
9 Koro returu piyo udog ir wuora kendo uwachne ni, ‘Ma e gima Josef wuodi owacho: Nyasaye oseketa ruoth mar piny Misri duto. Bi ira; kendo kik ideki.
Haste ye, and go up to my father, and say unto him, Thus hath said thy son Joseph, God hath made me lord of all Egypt; come down unto me, tarry not.
10 Ibiro dak e piny Goshen kendo machiegni koda; ma en in gi nyithindi, nyikwayi, jambi, dhogi kod gik moko duto ma in-go.
And thou shalt dwell in the land of Goshen, and thou shalt be near unto me, thou, and thy children, and thy children's children, and thy flocks, and thy herds, and all that is thine.
11 Abiro pidhi kanyo, nikech pod nitiere higni abich mag kech mabiro. To ka ok kamano, in kod joodi duto kod giwu duto ubiro chanduru.’
And I will maintain thee there; for there are yet five years of famine; lest thou, and thy household, and all that thou hast, come to poverty.
12 “Unyalo neno un uwegi, kaachiel gi Benjamin owadwa bende, ni adier an Josef ema awuoyo kodu.
And, behold, your own eyes see, and the eyes of my brother Benjamin, that it is my mouth that speaketh unto you.
13 Nyisuru wuora luor ma omiya e piny Misri duto kod gik moko duto ma useneno. Kendo keluru wuora kae piyo.”
And ye shall tell my father of all my honor in Egypt, and of all that ye have seen; and ye shall hasten and bring down my father hither.
14 Eka Josef nokwako owadgi Benjamin, kendo noywak kendo Benjamin bende nokwake kaywak.
And he fell upon his brother Benjamin's neck, and wept; and Benjamin wept upon his neck.
15 Kendo nonyodho owetene duto kendo noywak kokwakogi. Bangʼe owetene nowuoyo kode.
And he kissed all his brothers, and wept upon them; and after that his brothers spoke with him.
16 Kane wach ochopo e kar dak ruoth Farao ni owete Josef osebiro, Farao kaachiel gi jotije nomor.
And the report thereof was heard in Pharaoh's house, saying, Joseph's brothers are come; and it was pleasing in the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of his servants.
17 Farao nowacho ne Josef niya, “Nyis oweteni, oyie misikegi kuom pundegi mondo gidog Kanaan,
And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, Say unto thy brothers, This do ye; load your beasts, and go, get you unto the land of Canaan;
18 eka gidhi gikel wuonu kod joode duto mondo gidwog ira. Abiro miyogi kama ber moloyo e piny Misri kendo ginicham gik machiek e lopni.”
And take your father and your households, and come unto me; and I will give you the best of the land of Egypt, and ye shall eat the fat of the land.
19 Bende asemiyi chik mondo inyisgi niya, “Kawuru geche miywayo gi punde e piny Misri mondo udhi uomgo nyithindeu gi mondeu kod wuonu kendo ubi kodgi ka.
And thou art commanded, This do ye, take unto yourselves out of the land of Egypt wagons for your little ones, and for your wives, and take up your father, and come.
20 Kik uparru kuom gik maun-go e pinyu, nikech gik mabeyo mag Misri duto nobed mau.”
And do ye feel no concern on account of your household goods; for the best of all the land of Egypt is yours.
21 Omiyo yawuot Israel notimo kamano. Josef nomiyogi geche miywayo gi punde, mana kaka Farao nowachone kendo en bende nomiyogi gik mane ginyalo konyore godo e yo.
And the children of Israel did so; and Joseph gave them wagons, according to the command of Pharaoh; and he gave them provision for the way.
22 Nomiyo moro ka moro kuomgi law manyien to Benjamin nomiyo fedha mapekgi oromo kilo mia adek kod lewni mopogore opogore abich.
To all of them he gave to each changes of raiment; but to Benjamin he gave three hundred pieces of silver, and five changes of raiment.
23 Kendo magi e gik mane ooro ni wuon-gi: punde apar motingʼo gik mabeyo mag Misri kod punde apar mamon motingʼo cham kod makati kod chiemo mane onyalo konyorego e wuoth ka obiro Misri.
And to his father he sent after this manner: ten asses laden with the best things of Egypt, and ten she-asses laden with corn and bread and other food for his father, for the journey.
24 Eka Josef nokowo owetene modhi, kendo kane koro giwuok gidhi nowachonegi niya, “Kik udhaw kendu e wangʼ yo!”
And he accompanied his brothers on the way, and they departed: and he said unto them, Do not fall out by the way.
25 Kuom mano negiwuok Misri kendo gibiro Kanaan ir Jakobo wuon-gi.
And they went out of Egypt, and came into the land of Canaan, unto Jacob their father.
26 Neginyiso Jakobo niya, “Josef pod ngima kendo koro en e ruodh Misri duto.” Jakobo ne dhoge omoko, mi ok noyie gi wachgino.
And they told him, saying, Joseph is yet alive; and that he is governor over all the land of Egypt. But his heart remained cold, for he believed them not.
27 To kane giwachone gik moko duto mane Josef osewachonegi kendo kane oneno geche mane Josef oseoro mondo odhi otere ire, chuny Jakobo wuon-gi noduogo.
But when they told him all the words of Joseph, which he had said unto them; and when he saw the wagons which Joseph had sent to carry him: the spirit of Jacob their father revived.
28 Kendo Israel nowacho niya, “Ayie ni Josef wuoda pod ngima. Abiro dhi mondo anene kapok atho.”
And Israel said, Enough; Joseph my son is yet alive: I will go and see him before I die.
