< Genesis 48 >

1 And it came to pass after these things, that one told Joseph, Behold, thy father is sick. And he took with him his two sons Manasseh and Ephraim.
Eso enoga Ya: igobe da olo madelai ba: i. Amola ilia da Yousefema adoi. Yousefe da egefe aduna amo Ma: na: se amola Ifala: ime, amo Ya: igobema oule asi.
2 And one told Jacob and said, Behold, thy son Joseph is coming to thee. And Israel strengthened himself, and sat upon the bed.
Ya: igobe da Yousefe e ba: la misi sia: nababeba: le, e da ea gasa fili, dia heda: su fafai da: iya wa: le fi.
3 And Jacob said to Joseph, The Almighty God appeared to me at Luz in the land of Canaan, and blessed me,
Ya: igobe da Yousefema amane sia: i, “Gode Bagadedafa da Luse soge amo ganodini nama misini amola E da na hahawane dogolegele fidima: ne sia: i.
4 and he said to me, Behold, I will make thee fruitful and multiply thee, and I will make of thee a company of peoples; and will give this land to thy seed after thee [for] an everlasting possession.
E da nama amane sia: i, ‘Na da dima mano bagohame imunu amola digaga lalelegei manolali da fi bagohame hamomu. Amo soge Na da dia mano fifi misi ilima imunu. Ilia da amo soge eso huluane mae fisili gagulalumu.’”
5 And now thy two sons, who were born to thee in the land of Egypt before I came to thee into Egypt, shall be mine: Ephraim and Manasseh shall be mine, as Reuben and Simeon.
Ya: igobe da eno amane sia: i, “Yousefe! Dia gofe aduna amo na da guiguda: mae misini dima lalelegei, amo da na mano. Ifala: ime amola Ma: na: se da Liubene amola Simiane amo defele, na mano gala.
6 And thy family which thou hast begotten after them shall be thine: they shall be called after the name of their brethren in their inheritance.
Di da dunu mano eno lalelegesea, ilia da na mano defele hame ba: mu. Ilia nana liligi lamu da Ifala: ime amola Ma: na: se ela fi amoga lamu.
7 And as for me, when I came from Padan, Rachel died by me in the land of Canaan on the way, when there was yet a certain distance to come to Ephrath; and I buried her there on the way to Ephrath, that is, Bethlehem.
Na da dia ame La: isele amo dawa: beba: le agoane hamosa. Na da Mesoubouda: imia soge fisili, logoga manebeba: le, e da Efala: de moilai gadenene guiguda: Ga: ina: ne soge ganodini bogoi dagoi. E bogobeba: le, na da se bagade nabi. Na da Efala: de ahoasu logo bega: ea da: i hodo uli dogone sali.” (Efala: de ea dio da wali Bedeleheme.)
8 And Israel beheld Joseph's sons, and said, Who are these?
Ya: igobe da Yousefe egefela ba: beba: le, amane adole ba: i, “Amo goi da nowala: ?”
9 And Joseph said to his father, They are my sons, whom God has given me here. And he said, Bring them, I pray thee, to me, that I may bless them.
Yousefe da bu adole i, “Amo da nagofela. Gode da Idibidi soge guiguda: amo ganodini, amo mano nama i dagoi.” Ya: igobe da amane sia: i, “Ela nama oule misa! Na da elama Gode da ela hahawane dogolegele fidima: ne sia: mu.”
10 But the eyes of Israel were heavy from age: he could not see. And he brought them nearer to him; and he kissed them, and embraced them.
Ya: igobe da da: i hamoiba: le, ea si da wadela: i galu. E da noga: le ba: mu gogolei. Yousefe da amo goi aduna ema oule misini, e da ela ouga: ne nonogoi.
11 And Israel said to Joseph, I had not thought to see thy face; and behold, God has let me see also thy seed.
Ya: igobe da Yousefema amane sia: i, “Na da dia odagi bu hame ba: mu dawa: i galu. Be wali Gode da fidibiba: le, na da di amola dia mano ba: i dagoi.”
12 And Joseph brought them out from his knees, and bowed down with his face to the earth.
Amalalu, Yousefe da ea mano aduna Ya: igobe ea masele da: iya fene esalu amo lale, e da beguduli ea odagi osobo digila sa: i.
13 And Joseph took them both, Ephraim in his right hand toward Israel's left hand, and Manasseh in his left hand toward Israel's right hand, and brought [them] near to him.
Yousefe da Ifala: ime amo Ya: igobe ea lobo fofadi leloma: ne oule asi amola Ma: na: se amo Ya: igobe ea lobodafa amoga leloma: ne oule asi.
14 But Israel stretched out his right hand, and laid [it] on Ephraim's head — now he was the younger — and his left hand on Manasseh's head; guiding his hands intelligently, for Manasseh was the firstborn.
Be Ya: igobe da ea lobo ele gaduli giawale, ea lobodafa amo Ifala: ime (e da fa: no lalelegei mano) ea dialuma da: iya ligisi amola ea lobo fofadi amo magobo mano Ma: na: se ea dialuma da: iya ligisi.
15 And he blessed Joseph, and said, The God before whom my fathers Abraham and Isaac walked, the God that shepherded me all my life long to this day,
Amalalu, e da Godema E da Yousefe hahawane dogolegele fidima: ne sia: i, amane, “Gode (na ada A: ibalaha: me amola Aisage da Ema hawa: hamosu) E da amo goi aduna hahawane dogolegele fidimu da defea. Gode da mae yolesili musa: amola wahadafa nama bisili logo olelemusa: ahoasu.
16 the Angel that redeemed me from all evil, bless the lads; and let my name be named upon them, and the name of my fathers Abraham and Isaac; and let them grow into a multitude in the midst of the land!
A: igele amo da na mae se nabima: ne gaga: su, e da ela hahawane dogolegele fidimu da defea. Na dio amola na ada A: ibalaha: me amola Aisage elea dio, da amo goi ela fi ganodini dialalalumu da defea. Ilima mano bagohame lalelegemu amola iligaga fi dunu bagohame ba: mu da defea.”
17 When Joseph saw that his father laid his right hand on the head of Ephraim, it was evil in his eyes; and he took hold of his father's hand to remove it from Ephraim's head to Manasseh's head.
Yousefe da ea ada ea lobodafa amo Ifala: ime ea dialuma da: iya ligisi amo ba: loba, da: i dioi galu. Amaiba: le, e da ea ada lobodafa amo Ifala: ime dialuma fisili Ma: na: se ea dialuma da: iya ligisima: ne, gagui.
18 And Joseph said to his father, Not so, my father, for this is the firstborn: put thy right hand on his head.
E da ea adama amane sia: i, “Agoane hame, ada! Ma: na: se da magobo mano. Dia lobodafa ea dialuma da: iya ligisima.”
19 But his father refused and said, I know, my son, I know: he also will become a people, and he also will be great; but truly his younger brother will be greater than he; and his seed will become the fulness of nations.
Be ea ada da amane hame hamoi. E amane sia: i, “Na gofe! Na dawa: ! Ma: na: se ea lalelegemu fi amola da fi bagade hamomu. Be magobo baligia da ea hou baligimu. Egaga fi lalelegemu da baligili bagade ba: mu.”
20 And he blessed them that day, saying, In thee will Israel bless, saying, God make thee as Ephraim and Manasseh! And he set Ephraim before Manasseh.
Amaiba: le, amo esoga, Ya: igobe da elama Gode da hahawane dogolegele fidima: ne ilegele sia: i dagoi. E amane sia: i, “Isala: ili dunu da eno dunuma Gode hahawane dogolegele fidima: ne sia: sea, ilia da alia dioba: le sia: mu. Ilia da agoane sia: mu, Gode da dilia hou afadenene, bu Ifala: ime amola Ma: na: se ela hou defele hamomu da defea.” Ya: igobe da agoane Ifala: ime bisili amola Ma: na: se fa: no ilegei.
21 And Israel said to Joseph, Behold, I die; and God will be with you, and bring you again to the land of your fathers.
Amalalu, Ya: igobe da Yousefema amane sia: i, “Di da waha ba: sa. Na da bogomu galebe. Be Gode da di mae fisili, dia aowalali amo ilia sogega bu oule masunu.
22 And I have given to thee one tract [of land] above thy brethren, which I took out of the hand of the Amorite with my sword and with my bow.
Siegeme soge ida: iwane gala amo na da A: moulaide dunuma gegesu gobihei bagade amola dadi amoga gegeiba: le, samogene gagulaligi. Amo soge na da diolalalima hame imunu. Na da amo dima fawane imunu.”
