< Genesis 45 >

1 Then Joseph could not restrain himself before all those who stood before him, and he cried out, Cause every man to go out from me. And no man stood with him while Joseph made himself known to his brothers.
Tsono Yosefe sanathenso kuwugwira mtima kuti asalire pamaso pa antchito ake ndipo anafuwula kuti, “Aliyense achoke pamaso panga!” Motero panalibe wina aliyense pamene Yosefe anadziwulula kwa abale ake.
2 And he wept aloud, and the Egyptians heard, and the house of Pharaoh heard.
Ndipo analira mokweza mwakuti Aigupto anamva. Onse a ku nyumba kwa Farao anamvanso za zimenezi.
3 And Joseph said to his brothers, I am Joseph, does my father yet live? And his brothers could not answer him, for they were troubled at his presence.
Yosefe anati kwa abale ake, “Ine ndine Yosefe! Kodi abambo anga akanali ndi moyo?” Koma abale ake sanathe kumuyankha chifukwa anali ndi mantha kwambiri pamaso pake.
4 And Joseph said to 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.
Ndipo Yosefe anati kwa abale ake, “Senderani pafupi nane.” Atasendera iye anati, “Ine ndine mʼbale wanu Yosefe amene munamugulitsa ku Igupto!
5 And now be not grieved, nor angry with yourselves, that ye sold me here, for God sent me before you to preserve life.
Ndipo tsopano, musawawidwe mtima kapena kudzipsera mtima chifukwa choti munandigulitsa ine kuno, popeza Mulungu ananditsogoza ine kuti adzapulumutse miyoyo yanu.
6 For the famine has been in the land these two years, and there are yet five years, in which there shall be neither plowing nor harvest.
Kwa zaka ziwiri tsopano, kwakhala kuli njala mʼdziko muno, ndipo kwa zaka zisanu zikubwerazi, anthu sadzalima kapena kukolola.
7 And God sent me before you to preserve for you a remnant on the earth, and to save you alive by a great deliverance.
Koma Mulungu ananditsogoza kuti adzakusungeni ndi moyo ndi kuti mudzakhale ndi zidzukulu pa dziko lapansi.
8 So now it was not you that sent me here, but God, and he has made me a father to Pharaoh, and lord of all his house, and ruler over all the land of Egypt.
“Motero, si inu amene munanditumiza kuno koma Mulungu. Iye anandisandutsa kukhala nduna yayikulu ya Farao, ndipo zonse za mʼnyumba mwake zili mʼmanja mwangamu. Komanso amene akulamulira dziko lonse la Igupto ndi ine.
9 Hasten ye, and go up to my father, and say to him, Thus says thy son Joseph: God has made me lord of all Egypt. Come down to me, delay not.
Tsono fulumirani mubwerere kwa abambo anga ndi kuwawuza kuti, ‘Mwana wanu Yosefe akuti, Mulungu anandisandutsa kukhala mbuye wa dziko lonse la Igupto. Ndiye bwerani kuno musachedwe.
10 And thou shall dwell in the land of Goshen, and thou shall be near to me, thou, and thy sons, and thy sons' sons, and thy flocks, and thy herds, and all that thou have.
Ndipo inu, ana anu, zidzukulu zanu, pamodzi ndi nkhosa ndi ngʼombe zanu ndi antchito anu amene muli nawo muzidzakhala mʼdziko la Goseni pafupi ndi ine.
11 And there will I nourish thee, for there are yet five years of famine, lest thou come to poverty, thou, and thy household, and all that thou have.
Ine ndizidzakupatsani zakudya kumeneko chifukwa zaka zisanu za njala zikubwera ndithu. Kupanda kutero, inu ndi mabanja anu pamodzi ndi anthu anu onse mudzasowa chakudya.’
12 And, behold, your eyes see, and the eyes of my brother Benjamin, that it is my mouth that speaks to you.
“Tsono inu nonse pamodzi ndi mʼbale wangayu Benjamini, mukuona kuti ndi inedi amene ndikuyankhula nanu.
13 And ye shall tell my father of all my glory in Egypt, and of all that ye have seen. And ye shall hasten and bring down my father here.
Mukawawuze abambo anga kuti ndili pa ulemerero ku dziko la Igupto kuno ndi zonse zimene mwaziona. Tsopano fulumirani kuti mukabwere nawo kuno abambo anga.”
14 And he fell upon his brother Benjamin's neck, and wept, and Benjamin wept upon his neck.
Kenaka Yosefe anakhumbatira Benjamini, mngʼono wake uja nayamba kulira. Nayenso Benjamini anayamba kulira atamukumbatira.
15 And he kissed all his brothers, and wept upon them. And after that his brothers talked with him.
Atatero, Yosefe anapsompsona abale ake onse aja, akulira. Pambuyo pake abale ake aja anacheza ndi Yosefe.
16 And the report of it was heard in Pharaoh's house, saying, Joseph's brothers have come. And it pleased Pharaoh well, and his servants.
Akunyumba kwa Farao atamva kuti abale ake a Yosefe abwera, Farao pamodzi ndi nduna zake zonse anakondwera.
17 And Pharaoh said to Joseph, Say to thy brothers, This do ye: Load your beasts, and go, get you to the land of Canaan,
Farao anati kwa Yosefe, “Uwawuze abale ako kuti, ‘Senzetsani nyama zanu katundu ndi kubwerera ku dziko la Kanaani.
18 and take your father and your households, and come to me. And I will give you the good of the land of Egypt, and ye shall eat the fat of the land.
Mukabwere nawo abambo anu ndi mabanja anu kuno, ndipo ine ndidzakupatsani dera lachonde kwambiri mʼdziko la Igupto. Mudzadya zokoma za mʼdzikoli.’”
19 Now thou are commanded, this do ye: Take wagons for you out of the land of Egypt for your little ones, and for your wives, and bring your father, and come.
“Uwawuzenso kuti, ‘Tengani ngolo zingapo za kuno ku Igupto kuti mukakwezepo ana anu, akazi anu pamodzi ndi abambo ako ndi kubwera nawo kuno.
20 Also do not regard your stuff, for the good of all the land of Egypt is yours.
Musadandaule zosiya katundu komweko chifukwa dziko lachonde la kuno ku Igupto lidzakhala lanu.’”
21 And the sons of Israel did so. And Joseph gave them wagons, according to the commandment of Pharaoh, and gave them provision for the way.
Choncho ana a Israeli anachita zimenezo. Yosefe anawapatsa ngolo monga Farao analamulira, ndipo anawapatsanso chakudya cha paulendo wawo.
22 He gave to all of them, each man, changes of raiment, but to Benjamin he gave three hundred pieces of silver, and five changes of raiment.
Anaperekanso kwa aliyense zovala zatsopano, koma kwa Benjamini anapereka siliva wolemera pafupifupi makilogalamu anayi ndi zovala zisanu.
23 And he sent to his father according to this manner: ten donkeys laden with the good things of Egypt, and ten she-donkeys laden with grain and bread and provision for his father by the way.
Ndipo abambo ake anawatumizira izi: abulu khumi osenza zinthu zabwino kwambiri za ku Igupto, ndi abulu aakazi khumi osenza tirigu, buledi ndi zakudya zina za pa ulendo wake.
24 So he sent his brothers away, and they departed. And he said to them, See that ye not fall out by the way.
Kenaka anawalola abale ake aja kuti azipita, ndipo akunyamuka, iye anawawuza kuti, “Osakangana mʼnjira!”
25 And they went up out of Egypt, and came into the land of Canaan to Jacob their father.
Ndipo anachoka ku Igupto nafika kwa abambo awo Yakobo mʼdziko la Kanaani.
26 And they told him, saying, Joseph is yet alive, and he is ruler over all the land of Egypt. And his heart fainted, for he did not believe them.
Iwo anawuza abambo awo kuti, “Yosefe akanali ndi moyo! Ndiponsotu, ndiye akulamulira dziko la Igupto.” Yakobo anangoti kakasi osankhulupirira.
27 And they told him all the words of Joseph, which he had said to them. And when he saw the wagons which Joseph had sent to carry him, the spirit of Jacob their father revived.
Komabe atamufotokozera zonse zimene Yosefe anawawuza ndipo ataona ngolo zimene Yosefe anatumiza kuti adzakweremo popita ku Igupto, mtima wa Yakobo, abambo awo unatsitsimuka.
28 And Israel said, It is enough, Joseph my son is yet alive. I will go and see him before I die.
Ndipo Israeli anati, “Ndatsimikizadi! Mwana wanga Yosefe akanali ndi moyodi. Ndipita ndikamuone ndisanafe.”
