< Genesis 48 >

1 After these things, it was told Joseph that his father was sick: and he set out to go to him, taking his two sons Manasses and Ephraim.
Waxyaalahaas ka dib waxaa Yuusuf lagu yidhi, Bal eeg, aabbahaa waa bukaaye. Markaasuu wuxuu kaxaystay labadiisii wiil oo ahaa Manaseh iyo Efrayim.
2 And it was told the old man: Behold thy son Joseph cometh to thee. And being strengthened he sat on his bed.
Kolkaasaa waxaa Yacquub loo soo sheegay, oo lagu yidhi, Bal eeg, wiilkaagii Yuusuf baa kuu imanaya. Markaasaa Israa'iil intuu xoog isgeliyey ayuu soo dul fadhiistay sariirtiisii.
3 And when Joseph was come in to him, he said: God Almighty appeared to me at Luza, which is in the land of Chanaan: and he blessed me,
Markaasaa Yacquub wuxuu Yuusuf ku yidhi, Ilaaha Qaadirka ah ayaa iigu muuqday Luus oo ku taal dalka Kancaan, wuuna i barakeeyey,
4 And he said: I will cause thee to increase and multiply, and I will make of thee a multitude of people: and I will give this land to thee, and to thy seed after thee for an everlasting possession.
oo wuxuu igu yidhi, Bal eeg waan ku badin doonaa, waanan ku tarmin doonaa, oo waxaan kaa dhigi doonaa dad fara badan; dhulkanna waxaan siin doonaa farcankaaga kaa dambeeya, inuu hanti aan weligeed dhammaanayn u ahaado.
5 So thy two sons who were born to thee in the land of Egypt before I came hither to thee, shall be mine: Ephraim and Manasses shall be reputed to me as Ruben and Simeon.
Haddaba labadaadii wiil oo dalka Masar kuugu dhashay, intaanan kuugu iman Masar, anigaa iska leh. Efrayim iyo Manaseh ayaan u lahaan doonaa sida Ruubeen iyo Simecoon.
6 But the rest whom thou shalt have after them, shall be thine, and shall be called by the name of their brethren in their possessions.
Carruurta aad iyaga ka dib dhasho, adigaa iska lahaan doona, waana in loo bixiyo magacyada walaalahood markay wax dhaxlaan.
7 For, when I came out of Mesopotamia, Rachel died from me in the land of Chanaan in the very journey, and it was springtime: and I was going to Ephrata, and I buried her near the way of Ephrata, which by another name is called Bethlehem.
Anigana, markii aan ka imid Fadan ayaa Raaxeel igaga dhimatay dalkii Kancaan waddada loo maro, intaanan weli Efrad soo gaadhin; oo kolkaasaan iyadii ku aasay waddada loo maro Efrad, meeshaasuna waa Beytlaxam.
8 Then seeing his sons, he said to him: Who are these?
Markaasaa Israa'iil intuu wiilashii Yuusuf dhugtay ayuu yidhi, Kuwanu waa ayo?
9 He answered: They are my sons, whom God hath given me in this place. And he said: Bring them to me that I may bless them.
Markaasaa Yuusuf wuxuu aabbihiis ku yidhi, Waa wiilashaydii Ilaah halkan igu siiyey. Markaasuu isna wuxuu ku yidhi, Waan ku baryayaaye, iyaga ii soo dhowee, waanan u ducaynayaa.
10 For Israel’s eyes were dim by reason of his great age, and he could not see clearly. And when they were brought to him, he kissed and embraced them.
Haddaba Israa'iil cimrigiisii dheeraa aawadiis ayuu la indha darnaaday, sidaas daraaddeed waxba ma uu arki karin. Kolkaasuu iyagii u soo dhoweeyey, wuuna isku duubay oo dhunkaday.
11 And said to his son: I am not deprived of seeing thee: moreover God hath showed me thy seed.
Markaasaa Israa'iil wuxuu Yuusuf ku yidhi, Uma aan malaynayn inaan wejigaaga arki doono, oo bal eeg, Ilaah weliba wuxuu i tusay xataa farcankaagii.
12 And when Joseph had taken them from his father’s lap, he bowed down with his face to the ground.
Markaasaa Yuusuf wuxuu iyagii ka durkiyey lowyihiisii; oo intuu sujuuday ayuu wejigiisii dhulka saaray.
13 And he set Ephraim on his right hand, that is, towards the left hand of Israel; but Manasses on his left hand, to wit, towards his father’s right hand, and brought them near to him.
Markaasuu Yuusuf labadoodiiba kaxeeyey, intuu Efrayim gacantiisii midigta ahayd ku qabtay oo ku toosan Israa'iil bidixdiisa, Manasehna ku qabtay bidixdiisii oo ku toosan midigtii Israa'iil, wuuna u soo dhoweeyey iyagii.
14 But he stretching forth his right hand, put it upon the head of Ephraim the younger brother; and the left upon the head of Manasses who was the elder, changing his hands.
Markaasaa Israa'iil soo fidiyey gacantiisii midigta ahayd, oo wuxuu saaray madaxii Efrayim oo kii yaraa ahaa. Gacantiisii bidixda ahaydna wuxuu saaray Manaseh madaxiisii, wuuna isdhaafiyey gacmihiisii, maxaa yeelay, Manaseh wuxuu ahaa curadkii.
15 And Jacob blessed the sons of Joseph, and said: God, in whose sight my fathers Abraham and Isaac walked, God that feedeth me from my youth until this day;
Markaasuu Yuusuf u duceeyey, oo wuxuu yidhi, Ilaaha aabbahay Isxaaq iyo awowgay Ibraahim ay ku hor socdeen, oo ah Ilaaha i quudinayay intii aan noolaa oo dhan ilaa maanta,
16 The angel that delivereth me from all evils, bless these boys: and let my name be called upon them, and the names of my fathers Abraham, and Isaac, and may they grow into a multitude upon the earth.
iyo malaa'igtii iga soo samatabbixisay xumaato oo dhan, wiilasha ha barakeeyeen; oo magacayga ha lagu magacaabo iyaga, iyo magicii aabbahay Isxaaq, iyo kii awowgay Ibraahim; oo dad faro badan dhulka ha ku noqdeen.
17 And Joseph seeing that his father had put his right hand upon the head of Ephraim, was much displeased: and taking his father’s hand he tried to lift it from Ephraim’s head, and to remove it to the head of Manasses.
Oo markii Yuusuf arkay in aabbihiis gacantiisii midigta ahayd Efrayim madaxiisa saaray ayuu taas ka xumaaday; markaasuu gacantii aabbihiis qabtay inuu ka qaado Efrayim madaxiisa oo uu saaro Manaseh madaxiisa.
18 And he said to his father: It should not be so, my father: for this is the firstborn, put thy right hand upon his head.
Oo Yuusufna wuxuu aabbihiis ku yidhi, Aabbahayow, saas ma aha, waayo, kanu waa curadkii ee gacantaada midigta ah madaxiisa saar.
19 But he refusing, said: I know, my son, I know: and this also shall become peoples, and shall be multiplied: but this younger brother shall be greater than he: and his seed shall grow into nations.
Markaasaa aabbihiis diiday oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Waan ogahay, waan ogahay, wiilkaygiiyow. Isaguna wuxuu noqon doonaa quruun, wuuna weynaan doonaa; habase yeeshee walaalkiisa ka yar baa ka weynaan doona, oo farcankiisu wuxuu noqon doonaa quruumo faro badan.
20 And he blessed them at that time, saying: In thee shall Israel be blessed, and it shall be said: God do to thee as to Ephraim, and as to Manasses. And he set Ephraim before Manasses.
Oo maalintaasuu u duceeyey iyagii, oo wuxuu yidhi, Reer binu Israa'iil idinkay idinku ducaysan doonaan, iyagoo leh, Ilaah ha kaa dhigo sidii Efrayim iyo sidii Manaseh. Oo Efrayimna wuxuu ka hor mariyey Manaseh.
21 And he said to Joseph his son: Behold I die, and God will be with you, and will bring you back into the land of your fathers.
Oo Israa'iilna wuxuu Yuusuf ku yidhi, Anigu waan dhimanayaa, laakiinse Ilaah baa kula jiri doona, oo mar labaadna wuxuu ku geeyn doonaa dhulkii awowayaashaa.
22 I give thee a portion above thy brethren, which I took out of the hand of the Amorrhite with my sword and bow.
Oo weliba waxaan ku siiyey qayb dheeraad ah, oo aad walaalahaa dheer tahay, waana tii aan reer Amor kaga qaatay seeftayda iyo qaansadayda.
