< Genesis 42 >

1 Now Jacob saw that there was grain in Egypt, and Jacob said to his sons, “Why do you look at one another?”
Ya: igobe da gagoma Idibidi dialebe amo nababeba: le, egefelali ilima amane sia: i, “Dilia da abuli udigili esalabala?
2 He said, “Behold, I have heard that there is grain in Egypt. Go down there, and buy for us from there, so that we may live, and not die.”
Na da nabi gagoma Idibidi sogega diala. Ninia da ha: iba: le bogosa: besa: le, amoga lala masa.”
3 Joseph’s ten brothers went down to buy grain from Egypt.
Amaiba: le, Yousefe ea yolalali nabuane gala da Idibidi sogega gagoma bidi lamusa: asi dagoi.
4 But Jacob did not send Benjamin, Joseph’s brother, with his brothers; for he said, “Lest perhaps harm happen to him.”
Be e da se nabasa: besa: le, Ya: igobe da Yousefe eya Bediamini amo hame asunasi.
5 The sons of Israel came to buy among those who came, for the famine was in the land of Canaan.
Ga: ina: ne soge da ha: i bagadeba: le, Ya: igobe egefelali da eno dunu gilisili, gagoma ha: i manu bidi lama: ne misi.
6 Joseph was the governor over the land. It was he who sold to all the people of the land. Joseph’s brothers came, and bowed themselves down to him with their faces to the earth.
Yousefe, Idibidi ouligisu hina dunu, da osobo bagade fifi asi gala dunu huluane ilima gagoma bidi lalu. Amaiba: le, Yousefe yolalali da ema misini, ilia odagi osoboa digimusa: begudui.
7 Joseph saw his brothers, and he recognized them, but acted like a stranger to them, and spoke roughly with them. He said to them, “Where did you come from?” They said, “From the land of Canaan, to buy food.”
Yousefe da ea yolalali ba: beba: le, ili dawa: i galu. Be e da ogogole, e da ili hame dawa: i agoane hamoi. E da gasa fiwane ilima adole ba: i, “Dilia da habidili misibala: ?” Ilia da bu adole i, “Ninia da Ga: ina: ne sogega ha: i manu bidi lamusa: misi.”
8 Joseph recognized his brothers, but they did not recognize him.
Yousefe da ea yolalali dawa: i. Be e da ilia eya amo ilia da hame dawa: i.
9 Joseph remembered the dreams which he dreamed about them, and said to them, “You are spies! You have come to see the nakedness of the land.”
E da ilima musa: simasia ba: su amo bu dawa: i. E ilima amane sia: i, “Dilia da desega ahoasu dunu. Dilia da Idibidi soge amo ninia habidili gasa hame gala amo ba: la misi.”
10 They said to him, “No, my lord, but your servants have come to buy food.
Be ilia bu adole i, “Hame mabu, hina! Ninia da dia udigili hawa: hamosu dunu defele, ha: i manu bidi lamusa: misi.
11 We are all one man’s sons; we are honest men. Your servants are not spies.”
Ninia huluane da olalali esala. Ninia da desega ahoasu dunu hame. Ninia huluane da moloi dunu.”
12 He said to them, “No, but you have come to see the nakedness of the land!”
Yousefe bu adole i, “Hame mabu! Dilia da ninia soge amo ea gasa hame hou ba: la misi dagoi.”
13 They said, “We, your servants, are twelve brothers, the sons of one man in the land of Canaan; and behold, the youngest is today with our father, and one is no more.”
Ilia bu amane sia: i, “Ninia da olalali fagoyale galu. Ninia da dunu afae Ga: ina: ne soge ganodini amo ea manolali gala. Be eya afae da bogoi, amola ufi dunu mano da ninia eda amola esala.”
14 Joseph said to them, “It is like I told you, saying, ‘You are spies!’
Yousefe da bu adole i, “Na sia: i defele dilia da desega ahoasu dunu.
15 By this you shall be tested. By the life of Pharaoh, you shall not go out from here, unless your youngest brother comes here.
Na dilima adoba: su hou hamomu. Felou ea dioba: le, na da agoane sia: sa. Dilia fa: no lalelegei eya da guiguda: hame manoba, dilia da guiguda: hamedafa yolesimu.
16 Send one of you, and let him get your brother, and you shall be bound, that your words may be tested, whether there is truth in you, or else by the life of Pharaoh surely you are spies.”
Dilia fi dunu afae e lala masa: ma! Dilia eno huluane da guiguda: se iasu diasu ganodini esalumu. Dilia sia: da dafawane o dafawane hame, amo ninia ba: mu.”
17 He put them all together into custody for three days.
Amalalu, e da ili se iasu diasu ganodini sali. Amoga ilia eso udiana esalu.
18 Joseph said to them the third day, “Do this, and live, for I fear God.
Eso udiana amoga Yousefe da ilima amane sia: i, “Na da Godema beda: i dunu. Dilia liligi afadafa hamosea fawane, na da dili hame fane legemu.
19 If you are honest men, then let one of your brothers be bound in your prison; but you go, carry grain for the famine of your houses.
Dilia sia: da dafawane olelema: ne, dunu afae fawane da se iasu diasu ganodini esalumu. Dilia eno da dilia ha: i bagade fi ilima ha: i manu dilia lai gaguli masa.
20 Bring your youngest brother to me; so will your words be verified, and you will not die.” They did so.
Amasea, dilia fa: no lalelegei eya amo guiguda: oule misa. Amasea, dilia da hame ogogoi, na da dawa: mu amola na da dili hame fane legemu.” Amo da defea ilia sia: i dagoi.
21 They said to one another, “We are certainly guilty concerning our brother, in that we saw the distress of his soul, when he begged us, and we would not listen. Therefore this distress has come upon us.”
Ilia gilisili sia: dasu, “Dafawane! Wali ninia se nabasu da dabe agoane ninia eya ema wadela: le hamoiba: le lasa. E da ninima e fidima: ne se nabawane edegei, be ninia da hame nabi. Amaiba: le, ninia wali dabe agoane se naba.”
22 Reuben answered them, saying, “Did not I tell you, saying, ‘Do not sin against the child,’ and you would not listen? Therefore also, behold, his blood is required.”
Liubene da amane sia: i, “Na da goi maedafa wadela: ma: ne sia: i; be dilia da hame nabi. Wali ea bogoi amoga ninia da dabe laha.”
23 They did not know that Joseph understood them; for there was an interpreter between them.
Yousefe da ilia sia: huluane dawa: i. Be amo hou ilia da hame dawa: i. Ilia da ema sia: noba, sia: adole iasu dunu, amoga fawane sia: su.
24 He turned himself away from them, and wept. Then he returned to them, and spoke to them, and took Simeon from among them, and bound him before their eyes.
Yousefe da ili yolesili, disu. Amalalu, e da ilima bu misini, ilima sia: dasu. Ea sia: beba: le, ea dadi gagui da Simiane lale, ilia huluane ba: ma: ne lala: gi dagoi.
25 Then Joseph gave a command to fill their bags with grain, and to restore each man’s money into his sack, and to give them food for the way. So it was done to them.
Yousefe da sia: beba: le, ea hawa: hamosu dunu da ilia esa amo gagoma amoga nabalesi. Ilia da Yousefe yolalali ilia esa afae afae amo ganodini, silifa muni ilia musa: i, amo sali. Amola ilia da ha: i manu ilia logoga ahoasea moma: ne, ilima i.
26 They loaded their donkeys with their grain, and departed from there.
Amalalu, Yousefe yolalali da ilia gagoma lai, amo ilia dougi baligiga ligisili, yolesili asi.
27 As one of them opened his sack to give his donkey food in the lodging place, he saw his money. Behold, it was in the mouth of his sack.
Asili, ilia da sogebi amo golamusa: ouesalu, dunu afae da ea dougi amo ha: i manu imunusa: ea esa doasilaloba, ea muni amo gagoma gadodili ligisi dialebe ba: i.
28 He said to his brothers, “My money is restored! Behold, it is in my sack!” Their hearts failed them, and they turned trembling to one another, saying, “What is this that God has done to us?”
E da yolalalima amane sia: i, “Na muni ilia da nama bu i. Amo da na esa ganodini dialebe ba: sa.” Ilia bagade beda: i galu. Ilia da gilisili amane sia: dasu, “Gode da anima adi hamobela: ?”
29 They came to Jacob their father, to the land of Canaan, and told him all that had happened to them, saying,
Ilia da eda Ya: igobema doaga: loba, ilia da hou huluane ilima misi amo huluane ema amane adoi,
30 “The man, the lord of the land, spoke roughly with us, and took us for spies of the country.
“Idibidi ouligisu hina dunu da ninima gasa bagade ougiwane sia: i. E da nini ea soge wadela: musa: , desega ahoanebe sia: i.
31 We said to him, ‘We are honest men. We are no spies.
Be ninia ema bu adole i, ‘Ninia da desega ahoasu dunu hame. Ninia moloidafa dunu.
32 We are twelve brothers, sons of our father; one is no more, and the youngest is today with our father in the land of Canaan.’
Ninia da olalali fagoyale galu. Ninia dunu afae amo egefelali gala. Ninia eya da bogoi amola fa: no lalelegei eya da ninia eda amola Ga: ina: ne soge ganodini esala.’
33 The man, the lord of the land, said to us, ‘By this I will know that you are honest men: leave one of your brothers with me, and take grain for the famine of your houses, and go your way.
Amalalu, Idibidi hina da amane sia: i, ‘Dilia da moloidafa dunu o hame, amo ninia da amoga ba: mu. Dunu afadafa da nama ouesalumu. Eno da dilia ha: i bagade fi ilima ha: i manu gaguli masa.
34 Bring your youngest brother to me. Then I will know that you are not spies, but that you are honest men. So I will deliver your brother to you, and you shall trade in the land.’”
Dia eya fa: no lalelegei, amo nama oule misa. Amasea, dilia da desega ahoasu dunu hame be moloidafa amo na da dawa: mu. Na da dilia ola dilima bu imunu. Amola dilia da guiguda: bidi lasu hamomusa: ouesalumu da defea.”
35 As they emptied their sacks, behold, each man’s bundle of money was in his sack. When they and their father saw their bundles of money, they were afraid.
Amalalu, ilia da gagoma esa ganodini sali amo huluane gugudili legeiya, ilia huluane muni ganodini sali dialebe ba: i. Amo ba: beba: le, ilia, amola ilia eda Ya: igobe, da bagade beda: i galu.
36 Jacob, their father, said to them, “You have bereaved me of my children! Joseph is no more, Simeon is no more, and you want to take Benjamin away. All these things are against me.”
Ilia eda da ilima amane sia: i, “Dilia da na mano huluane fisimu, amo dilia da hanabala: ? Yousefe da fisi dagoi. Simiane da fisi dagoi. Wali dilia da Bediamini fadegamusa: dawa: lala. Ni fawane da se naba.”
37 Reuben spoke to his father, saying, “Kill my two sons, if I do not bring him to you. Entrust him to my care, and I will bring him to you again.”
Liubene da ea edama amane sia: i, “Na da Bediamini dima bu hame oule masea, di da na dunu mano aduna fane legemu da defea. Na ouligima: ne, Bediamini nama ima. Na da e bu oule misunu.”
38 He said, "My son shall not go down with you; for his brother is dead, and he only is left. If harm happens to him along the way in which you go, then you will bring down my gray hairs with sorrow to Sheol (Sheol h7585)."
Be Ya: igobe da amane sia: i, “Na gofe da dili sigi masunu hamedei. Ea ola da bogoi amola hisu da esala. E da logoga se nabasa: besa: le, hamedafa masunu. Na da dunu da: i hamoi dagoi. Di da amo se nabasu nama iasea, na bogomu.” (Sheol h7585)
