< Genesis 44 >

1 And Joseph commanded the steward of his house, saying: Fill their sacks with corn, as much as they can hold: and put the money of every one in the top of his sack.
Binilin ni Jose ti mangay-aywan iti balayna, a kunana, “Kargaam dagiti sako dagiti lallaki iti taraon, segun iti kabaelanda nga awiten, ken ikabilmo ti kuarta ti tunggal maysa a lalaki iti ngarab dagiti sakoda.
2 And in the mouth of the younger’s sack put my silver cup, and the price which he gave for the wheat. And it was so done.
Ikabilmo ti kopak, ti pirak a kopa, iti ngarab ti sako ti inaudi, ken kasta met ti kuartana a bayad ti bukel.” Inaramid ngarud ti mangay-aywan ti imbaga ni Jose.
3 And when the morning arose, they were sent away with their asses.
Lumawlawagen iti bigat, ket napalubosan a pumanaw dagiti lallaki, isuda ken dagiti asnoda.
4 And when they were now departed out of the city, and had gone forward a little way; Joseph sending for the steward of his house, said: Arise, and pursue after the men: and when thou hast overtaken them, say to them: Why have you returned evil for good?
Idi nakaruardan iti siudad ngem saanda pay a nakaadayo, imbaga ni Jose iti mangay-aywan, “Tumakderka, kamatem dagiti lallaki, ket no makamatam ida, ibagam kadakuada, “Apay a sinubadanyo iti dakes ti naimbag?
5 The cup which you have stolen is that in which my lord drinketh, and in which he is wont to divine: you have done a very evil thing.
Apay a tinakawyo ti kopa a pagin-inuman ti apok, nga ar-aramatenna metlaeng nga agbuyon? Nakaaramidkayo iti dakes, gapu iti daytoy a banag a naaramidanyo.”
6 He did as he had commanded him. And having overtaken them, he spoke to them the same words.
Nakamatan ida ti mangay-aywan ket insaona dagitoy a sasao kadakuada.
7 And they answered: Why doth our lord speak so, as though thy servants had committed so heinous a fact?
Kinunada kenkuana, “Apay ta agsasao ti apok iti nalabes a sasao a kas kadagitoy? Adayo nga aramiden dagiti adipenmo daytoy a banag.
8 The money, that we found in the top of our sacks, we brought back to thee from the land of Chanaan: how then should it be that we should steal out of thy lord’s house, gold or silver?
Kitaem, ti kuarta a nasarakanmi kadagiti ngarab ti saksakomi, inyegmi manen kadakayo manipud iti daga ti Canaan. Kasano ngarud nga agtakawkami ti pirak ken balitok iti balay ni amom?
9 With whomsoever of thy servants shall be found that which thou seekest, let him die, and we will be the bondmen of my lord.
No siasino kadagiti adipenmo iti pakasarakanna, uray matay isuna, ken dakami met ket agbalin a tagabu iti apok.”
10 And he said to them: Let it be according to your sentence: with whomsoever it shall be found, let him be my servant, and you shall be blameless.
Imbaga ti mangay-aywan, “Ita ngarud, mapasamak koma a kas kadagiti imbagam. No siasino iti pakasarakan ti kopa, agbalin isuna a tagabuk, ket dakayo a dadduma, saankayo a mairaman.”
11 Then they speedily took down their sacks to the ground, and every man opened his sack.
Kalpasanna, pinartakan ti tunggal maysa nga imbaba dagiti sakoda, ket linukatan ti tunggal maysa dagiti sakoda.
12 Which when he had searched, beginning at the eldest and ending at the youngest, he found the cup in Benjamin’s sack.
Nagbiruk ti mangay-aywan. Rinuggianna iti kalakayan ket lineppasna iti kaubingan, ket nasarakanna ti kopa iti sako ni Benjamin.
13 Then they rent their garments, and loading their asses again, returned into the town.
Rinay-abda dagiti kawesda. Nagsakay ti tunggal lalaki iti asnona ket nagsublida iti siudad.
14 And Juda at the head of his brethren went in to Joseph, (for he was not yet gone out of the place), and they altogether fell down before him on the ground.
Immay ni Juda ken dagiti kakabsatna iti balay ni Jose, adda pay laeng isuna sadiay, ket nagpaklebda iti sangoananna.
15 And he said to them: Why would you do so? know you not that there is no one like me in the science of divining.
Kinuna ni Jose kadakuada, “Ania daytoy a naaramidyo? Saanyo kadi nga ammo nga iti lalaki a kas kaniak ket agbuybuyon?”
16 And Juda said to him: What shall we answer my lord? or what shall we say, or be able justly to allege? God hath found out the iniquity of thy servants: behold, we are all bondmen to my lord, both we, and he with whom the cup was found.
Kinuna ni Juda, “Ania iti maibagami kenka apo? Ania iti isaomi? Wenno kasanomi nga ikalintegan dagiti bagbagimi? Naduktalan ti Dios ti basol dagiti adipenmo. Kitaenyo, dakami ket tagabum apo, dakami amin agraman ti nakasarakan iti kopa.”
17 Joseph answered: God forbid that I should do so: he that stole the cup, he shall be my bondman: and go you away free to your father.
Kinuna ni Jose, “Adayo a maaramidko ti kasta. Ti laeng lalaki a nakasarakan ti kopa ti agbalin a tagabuk, ngem dakayo a dadduma, sumang-atkayo a sitatalna iti ayan ti amayo.”
18 Then Juda coming nearer, said boldly: I beseech thee, my lord, let thy servant speak a word in thy ears, and be not angry with thy servant: for after Pharao thou art,
Ket immasideg ni Juda kenkuana ket kinunana, “Apo, pangngaasim, bay-am koma nga agsao daytoy adipenmo ket denggem koma, ken saanka koma a makaunget iti adipenmo, ta sika ket kas iti Faraon.
19 My lord. Thou didst ask thy servants the first time: Have you a father or a brother?
Nagsaludsod ti apok kadagiti adipenna, kunana, 'Adda kadi amayo wenno kabsatyo a lalaki?'
20 And we answered thee, my lord: We have a father an old man, and a young boy, that was born in his old age; whose brother by the mother is dead: and he alone is left of his mother, and his father loveth him tenderly.
Ket kinunami kenka apo, “Addaan pay iti amami, lakayen isuna, ken adda maysa a putotna iti kinalakayna, maysa nga ubing. Ket natayen ti kabsatna a lalaki, ken is-isuna laengen iti nabati nga anak ti inana, ket ay-ayaten unay isuna iti amana.'
21 And thou saidst to thy servants: Bring him hither to me, and I will set my eyes on him.
Ket imbagam kadagiti adipenmo, 'Iyegyo isuna kaniak tapno makitak isuna.'
22 We suggested to my lord: The boy cannot leave his father: for if he leave him, he will die.
Ket kinunami kenka apo, 'Saan a mabalin a panawan ti ubing ti amana. Ta no panawanna ti amana, matay ti amana.'
23 And thou saidst to thy servants: Except your youngest brother come with you, you shall see my face no more.
Ket kinunam kadagiti adipenmo, 'Malaksid a kaduayo a sumalog ti kabsatyo a lalaki, saanyonto a makita manen ti rupak.'
24 Therefore when we were gone up to thy servant our father, we told him all that my lord had said.
Ket napasamak nga idi napankami iti adipenmo nga amak, imbagami kenkuana ti insaom apo.
25 And our father said: Go again, and buy us a little wheat.
Ket kinuna ti amami, 'Mapankayo manen gumatang iti taraontayo.'
26 And we said to him: We cannot go: if our youngest brother go down with us, we will set out together: otherwise, without him we dare not see the man’s face.
Ket kinunami, 'Saankami a makapan. Mapankami no kaduami ti inaudi a kabsatmi, ta saankami a mabalin a sumango iti lalaki malaksid no kaduami ti inaudi a kabsatmi.'
27 Whereunto he answered: You know that my wife bore me two.
Kinuna kadakami ti adipenmo nga amak, 'Ammoyo met nga inikkannak laeng iti dua nga annak a lallaki ti asawak.
28 One went out, and you said: A beast devoured him: and hitherto he appeareth not.
Ket napukaw ti maysa kaniak ket kinunak, “Sigurado a narangkarangkayen isuna, ket saankon a nakita pay isuna manipud idi.”
29 If you take this also, and any thing befall him in the way you will bring down my gray hairs with sorrow unto hell. (Sheol h7585)
Ket no alaenyo pay daytoy maysa kaniak ket adda iti saan a nasayaat a mapasamak kenkuana, ipandakto, siak a purawen ti buokna, iti sheol gapu iti ladingit. (Sheol h7585)
30 Therefore if I shall go to thy servant our father, and the boy be wanting, (whereas his life dependeth upon the life of him, )
Ita, ngarud, no mapanak iti adipenmo nga amak, ket saanmi a kadua ti barito, agsipud ta ti biagna ket naisinggalut iti biag ti ubing,
31 And he shall see that he is not with us, he will die, and thy servants shall bring down his gray hairs with sorrow unto hell. (Sheol h7585)
mapasamakto nga inton makitana a saanmi a kadua ti ubing, ket matayto isuna. Ket dakaminto nga adipenmo ti pakaigapuan iti panagladingitna a mangipan kenkuana iti sheol.' (Sheol h7585)
32 Let me be thy proper servant, who took him into my trust, and promised, saying: If I bring him not again, I will be guilty of sin against my father for ever.
Ta nagkari daytoy adipenmo iti amami maipapan iti ubing, a kinunana, 'No saanko a maisubli isuna kenka, uray siakton ti mangawit iti pammabasol ti amak iti agnanayon.'
33 Therefore I thy servant will stay instead of the boy in the service of my lord, and let the boy go up with his brethren.
Isu nga ita, pangngaasim ta ipalubosmo koma a daytoy nga adipenmo ti mabati a kas tagabu kenka apo, a saan ket a ti ubing, ket ipalubosmo koma a sumang-at ti ubing a kaduana dagiti kakabsatna a lallaki.
34 For I cannot return to my father without the boy, lest I be a witness of the calamity that will oppress my father.
Ta ania ngay ti rupak a mapan iti amak no saanko a kadua ti ubing? Mabutengak a makita ti dakes a mabalin a mapasamak iti amak.”
