Genesis 44

1 And Joseph charged the steward of his house, saying, Fill the men's sacks with food, as much as they can carry, and put the money of each in the mouth of his sack.

Inatasan ni Jose ang katiwala ng kanyang bahay, sinabing, “Punuin mo ang sako ng mga lalaki ng pagkain, hangga't sa makakaya nilang buhatin, at ilagay ang bawat pera ng lalaki sa ibabaw ng kanyang sako.

2 And put my silver cup into the sack of the youngest, and the price of his corn. And it was done according to the word of Joseph, as he said.

Ilagay ang aking baso, ang pilak na baso, sa ibabaw ng sako ng bunso, at ganoon din ang kanyang pera para sa butil.” Ginawa ng katiwala ang sinabi ni Jose.

3 The morning dawned, and the men were sent away, they and their asses.

Nang nagbubukang-liwayway na, at ang mga lalaki ay pinaalis na, sila at ang kanilang mga asno.

4 And when they had gone out of the city, [and] were not far off, then Joseph said to his steward, Arise, and pursue after the men; and you shall overtake them, and say to them, Why have you returned evil for good?

Nang sila ay nakalabas sa lungsod subalit hindi pa nakakalayo, sinabi ni Jose sa kanyang katiwala, “Tumayo ka, sundan mo ang mga lalaki, at kung maabutan mo sila, sabihin mo sa kanila, 'Bakit ninyo sinuklian ng kasamaan ang kabutihan?

5 Why have you stolen my silver cup? is it not this out of which my lord drinks? and he divines augury with it; you have accomplished evil in that which you have done.

Hindi ba ito ang baso mula sa iniinuman ng aking amo, at ang baso na ginagamit niya para sa kanyang panghuhula? Gumawa kayo ng masama, ang bagay na ito na inyong ginawa.”'

6 And he found them, and spoke to them according to these words.

Naabutan sila ng katiwala at sinabi ang mga salitang ito sa kanila.

7 And they said to him, Why does our lord speak according to these words? far be it from your servants to do according to this word.

Sinabi nila sa kanya, “Bakit po sinasabi ng aking amo ang ganitong mga salita? Malayong gawin ng inyong mga lingkod ang bagay na iyan.

8 If we brought back to you out of the land of Chanaan the money which we found in our sacks, how should we steal silver or gold out of the house of your lord?

Tingnan ninyo, ang pera na nakita sa aming mga sako, ay muli naming dinala sa inyo sa labas ng lupain ng Canaan. Paano naman namin nanakawin mula sa tahanan ng inyong amo ang pilak o ginto?

9 With whoever of your servants you shall find the cup, let him die; and, moreover, we will be servants to our lord.

Kung sinuman sa inyong lingkod ang makitaan, hayaan mo siyang mamatay, at kami rin ay magiging mga alipin ng aming amo.”

10 And he said, Now then it shall be as you say; with whoever the cup shall be found, he shall be my servant, and you shall be clear.

Sinabi ng katiwala, “Ngayon rin hayaang magkaganoon ayon sa iyong mga salita. Siya na mahanapan ng baso ay magiging alipin ko, at ang iyong mga kapatid ay mapapawalangsala.”

11 And they hasted, and took down every man his sack on the ground, and they opened every man his sack.

At nagmamadali ang bawat lalaki at dinala ang kanilang sako pababa sa lupa, at binuksan ng bawat lalaki ang kanilang mga sako.

12 And he searched, beginning from the oldest, until he came to the youngest; and he found the cup in Benjamin's sack.

Naghanap ang katiwala. Nagsimula siya sa pinaka-panganay at natapos sa bunso, at nahanap ang baso sa sako ni Benjamin.

13 And they tore their garments, and laid each man his sack on his ass, and returned to the city.

Pagkatapos pinunit nila ang kanilang mga damit. Nilagay ng bawat lalaki ang kanilang asno at bumalik sa lungsod.

14 And Judas and his brethren came in to Joseph, while he was yet there, and fell on the ground before him.

Si Juda at ang kanyang mga kapatid ay pumunta sa tahanan ni Jose. Siya ay nanatili pa roon, at sila'y yumuko sa lupa sa harapan nito.

15 And Joseph said to them, What is this thing that you have done? know you not that a man such as I can surely divine?

Sinabi ni Jose sa kanila, “Ano itong ginagawa ninyo? Hindi ba ninyo alam na ang lalaking tulad ko ay bihasa sa panghuhula?”

16 And Judas said, What shall we answer to our lord, or what shall we say, or wherein should we be justified? whereas God has discovered the unrighteousness of your servants; behold, we are slaves to our lord, both we and he with whom the cup has been found.

Sinabi ni Juda, “Ano ang maari naming sabihin sa inyo aming amo? O kaya, paano namin maipagtatanggol ang aming sarili? Nalaman ng Diyos ang kasalanan ng iyong mga lingkod. Tingnan ninyo, kami ay alipin na ng aming amo, kami at siyang nahanapan ng baso.”

17 And Joseph said, Far be it from me to do this thing; the man with whom the cup has been found, he shall be my servant; but do you go up with safety to your father.

Sinabi ni Jose, “Malayong gawin ko iyan. Ang lalaking nahanapan ng baso sa kanyang kamay, ang lalaking iyon rin ang magiging alipin ko, subalit ang mga iba ay makakauwi na ng mapayapa sa inyong ama.”

18 And Judas drew near him, and said, I pray, Sir, let your servant speak a word before you, and be not angry with your servant, for you are next to Pharao.

Pagkatapos lumapit si Juda sa kanya at sinabing, “Aking amo pakiusap, pahintulutan po ninyo akong makapagsalita sa pandinig ng aking amo, at huwag hayaang umapoy sa galit laban sa iyong alipin, sapagkat katulad ka ni Paraon.

19 Sir, you asked your servants, saying, Have you a father or a brother?

Ang aking amo ay nagtanong sa kanyang mga lingkod, sinasabing, 'Mayroon pa ba kayong ama o kapatid?

20 And we said to [my] lord, We have a father, an old man, and he has a son of his old age, a young one, and his brother is dead, and he alone has been left behind to his mother, and his father loves him.

At sinabi namin sa aming amo, 'Mayroon kaming matandang ama, at anak niya sa kanyang katandaan, isang bunso. At patay na ang kanyang kuya, at siya ay nag-iisa na lamang na naiwan mula sa kanyang ina, at mahal na mahal siya ng kanyang ama.'

21 And you said to they servants, Bring him down to me, and I will take care of him.

At sinabi mo sa iyong mga lingkod, 'Dalhin ninyo siya rito sa akin para makita ko siya.'

22 And we said to [my] lord, The child will not be able to leave his father; but if he should leave his father, he will die.

At sinabi namin sa aming amo, 'Hindi kayang iwan ng bata ang kanyang ama. Sapagkat kung iiwan niya ang kaniyang ama ikamamatay ito ng kanyang ama.'

23 But you said to they servants, Except your younger brother come down with you, you shall not see my face again.

At sinabi mo sa iyong mga lingkod, 'Kung hindi ninyo kasama pababa ang bunso ninyong kapatid, hindi na ninyo muli makikita ang aking mukha.'

24 And it came to pass, when we went up to your servant our father, we reported to him the words of our lord.

At nangyari nga nang kami ay nakabalik sa aking ama na iyong mga lingkod, isinalaysay namin sa kanya ang mga salita ng aming amo.

25 And our father said, Go again, and buy us a little food.

At sinabi ng aming ama, 'Umalis kayo muli, bumili kayo ng ilang makakain.'

26 And we said, We shall not be able to go down; but if our younger brother go down with us, we will go down; for we shall not be able to see the man's face, our younger brother not being with us.

At sinabi namin, 'Hindi na kami makabababa. Kung kasama namin ang aming nakababatang kapatid, kami ay makakaalis pababa, sapagkat hindi na kami hahayaan na makita pa muli ang mukha ng lalaki kung hindi namin kasama ang bunso naming kapatid.'

27 And your servant our father said to us, You know that my wife bore me two [sons];

Sinabi ng aking ama na iyong lingkod, 'Alam ninyong dalawa lamang ang ipinanganak ng aking asawa.

28 and one is departed from me; and you said that he was devoured of wild beasts, and I have not seen him until now.

At ang isa ay nawala mula sa akin at sinabi ko. “Talaga ngang siya ay nagkapira-piraso, at hindi ko na siya nakita mula noon.”

29 If then you take this one also from my presence, and an affliction happen to him by the way, then shall you bring down my old age with sorrow to the grave. (Sheol h7585)

At kung kukunin rin ninyo itong isa sa akin at muling mapahamak, dadalhin ninyo ako sa katandaan na puno ng dalamhati sa kamatayan.' (Sheol h7585)

30 Now then, if I should go in to they servant, and our father, and the boy should not be with us, (and his life depends on this [lad's] life)

Kaya ngayon, kung pupunta ako sa aking ama na inyong alipin, at hindi ko kasama ang bata, sapagkat ang kanyang buhay ay karugtong na ng buhay ng batang lalaki,

31 —it shall even come to pass, when he sees the boy is not with us, [that] he will die, and your servants will bring down the old age of your servant, and our father, with sorrow to the grave. (Sheol h7585)

kapag ito ay nangyari, na hindi niya makita na kasama namin ang bata siguradong ikamamatay niya ito. At ang iyong alipin ay magiging dahilan ng pagdurusa ng ama ng iyong alipin sa kamatayan. (Sheol h7585)

32 For your servant has received the boy [in charge] from his father, saying, If I bring him not to you, and place him before you, I shall be guilty towards my father for ever.

Sapagkat ang iyong alipin ang katiyakan sa bata para sa aking ama at sinabi kong, 'Kung hindi ko madadala ang bata sa iyo, papasanin ko ang kasalanan magpakailanman sa aking ama.

33 Now then I will remain a servant with you instead of the lad, a domestic of my lord; but let the lad go up with his brethren.

Kaya ngayon, ako po ay nagmamakaawa hayaang manatili ang iyong lingkod sa halip na ang bata ang maging alipin ng aking amo, at hayaang makabalik ang bata kasama ng kanyang mga kapatid.

34 For how shall I go up to my father, the lad not being with us? lest I behold the evils which will befall my father.

Sapagkat paano ako makakabalik sa aking ama kung hindi ko kasama ang bata? Natatakot akong makita ang masamang mangyayari sa aking ama.”
