Genesis 45
1 Joseph couldn't control his emotions any longer while all his attendants were there, so he shouted out, “Everybody leave me!” So there was nobody else there when Joseph revealed who he was to his brothers.
Joseph teh a teng kaawm e pueng hmalah kâsum thai hoeh toung dawkvah, tami pueng kai koehoi koung tâcawt awh, telah a hram. Hottelah Joseph ni a hmaunawnghanaw koe a kâpanuesak nah yunglam apihai ahni teng kangdout awh hoeh.
2 But he cried so loudly that the Egyptians could hear him, and they told Pharaoh's household about it.
Kacaipounglah a ka teh, Izipnaw ni a thai awh, Faro imthungkhu ni hai a thai awh.
3 “I'm Joseph!” he announced to his brothers. “Is my father still alive?” They couldn't answer him as they were so surprised to see him face to face.
Joseph ni a hmaunawnghanaw koe kai teh Joseph doeh, apa atu sittouh a hring rah maw, telah ati. Hatei pato thai laipalah a hmaunaw roumkalue awh teh a hmalah sut a kangdue awh.
4 “Please come closer to me,” he told his brothers. They came over to him. “I'm your brother Joseph who you sold into slavery in Egypt.
Joseph ni a hmaunawnghanaw koe, pahren lahoi na hnai awh haw, telah ati. Hateh a hnai awh. Ahni ni na hmaunawngha Joseph, Izip ram vah na yo awh e hah ma.
5 But don't be worried or get angry with yourselves that you sold me to be a slave here, because it was God who sent me ahead of you to save lives.
Hatei, hivah cei hanelah na yo awh dawkvah, na lungmathout hanh awh, namamouh hoi namamouh hai kâhmuhma hanh awh, bangkongtetpawiteh, hringnae rungngang hanelah Cathut ni nangmouh hmalah na patoun e doeh.
6 The country has suffered from famine for two years already, but there will be five more years with no plowing or reaping.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, kum hni touh thung hete ram dawk takang a tho. Kum panga touh a ngai rah. Hat nah thung pueng teh laikawk kanawk awm mahoeh. Canga e hai awm mahoeh.
7 God sent me ahead of you to make sure you would still have descendants, to save your lives in this miraculous way.
Hottelah talai van catoun ka tawn hanelah karingkung hoi rungngangnae kalen hoi na hringsakthai awh nahanlah, Cathut ni ahmaloe hoi nangmouh hmalah na patoun toe.
8 So it wasn't you who sent me here, but God. He was the one who made me Pharaoh's chief advisor in charge of all his affairs, and ruler of the whole country of Egypt.
Hottelah hie hmuen koe na kacetsakkung hah nangmouh laipalah Cathut doeh. Ahni ni Faro hanelah na pa lah, imthungkhu kahrawikung, hoi Izip ram pueng kaukkung lah na coung sak.
9 Now hurry! Go back to my father and tell him, ‘This message comes from your son Joseph: God has made me the ruler of the whole of Egypt. Come to me now; don't wait.
Karanglah apa koe cet awh nateh, ahni koe na capa Joseph ni hettelah a dei, Cathut ni Izip ram pueng dawk bawi lah na sak, kai koe tho awh, uet awh hanh leih.
10 You'll live in the land of Goshen so you can be close to me with your children and grandchildren, and with your flocks and herds and everything that belongs to you.
Goshen ram vah na o han. Nang nama hoi, na capanaw hoi na mincanaw hoi, na tuhunaw, na maitohu hoi na tawn e puenghoi kai koe roeroe vah na o han.
11 I'll make sure you have food, because there are still five more years of famine to come. Otherwise you and your family and your animals are going to starve.’”
Hawvah kai ni na kawk han. Bangkongtetpawiteh hawvah takang kum panga touh ao han rah. Hatdawkvah, na roedeng payon vaih nang hoi na imthung hoi na tawn e pueng hoi telah na ti pouh awh han.
12 Then Joseph told his brothers, “You can all see for yourselves—including my brother Benjamin—that it's really me talking to you!
Hahoi khenhaw! nangmae mit roeroe hoi ka nawngha Benjamin e mit roeroe ni kaie ka pahni ni a dei lahun e hah na hmu awh.
13 Tell my father how much I'm respected in Egypt. Tell him everything that you've seen. Hurry! Bring my father here quickly!”
Izip ram e ka bawilennae pueng hoi na hmu awh e hno pueng hah apa koe na dei awh vaiteh, apa teh karang poung lah na thokhai awh han, telah ati.
14 He hugged Benjamin, and Benjamin hugged him back. They both wept for joy.
Hahoi a lungtabue hoi Benjamin lungtabue rekkâbet lah a tapam teh a ka. Benjamin ni hai a tapam teh a ka.
15 He kissed all his brothers and wept over them, and after that his brothers were able to start talking with him.
A hmaunawngha pueng a paco hnukkhu, a hmaunawnghanaw ni lawk a dei awh.
16 Word soon reached Pharaoh's palace that Joseph's brothers had arrived. Pharaoh and his officials were glad to hear the news.
Joseph e hmaunawnghanaw a tho awh tie kamthang teh Faro im vah a thai awh teh, hote kamthang ni Faro hoi a sannaw a lunghawi sak.
17 Pharaoh said to Joseph, “Tell your brothers, ‘This is what you are to do: Load your donkeys with grain and go back to the country of Canaan.
Faro ni Joseph koe, na hmaunawnghanaw koe, hettelah dei pouh, na saringnaw teh cakang phu sak hoi tâcawt awh nateh, Kanaan ram vah cet awh.
18 Then bring your father and your families and return here to me. I will give you the best land in Egypt, and you shall eat the best food the country has to offer.’
Hahoi na pa hoi a imthung hah kaimouh koe thokhai awh. Izip ram e hnokahawi na poe awh vaiteh, hete ram dawk kaawm e hnokahawipoung hah na ca awh han telah dei pouh awh.
19 Tell them to do this as well, ‘Take some wagons from Egypt for your children and your wives. Bring them and your father here.
Kâ na poe, hettelah dei pouh. Na canaw hoi na canunaw hane hoi na yunaw hanelah Izip ram hoi lengnaw sin awh nateh, na pa hah thokhai awh.
20 Don't worry about bringing your possessions because the best of all Egypt is yours.’”
Na hnopai kong dawk lungpuen hanh awh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Izip ram e hnokahawi pueng teh nangmae doeh, telah ati.
21 So that's what the sons of Israel did. Joseph provided them with wagons, as Pharaoh had ordered. He also gave them supplies for their journey.
Hahoi teh, Isarel canaw ni hottelah a sak awh. Joseph ni Faro kâpoe e patetlah leng hah ahnimouh koe a poe. Lam vah a ca awh hane hai a poe.
22 He gave each of them new clothes. But to Benjamin he gave five sets of clothes and 300 pieces of silver.
Ahnimouh abuemlah koe khohna kâthung hanelah a poe. Benjamin koe teh tangka cumthum touh hoi khohna kâthung hane panga touh a poe.
23 Joseph also sent to his father the following: ten donkeys carrying the best things from Egypt, and ten female donkeys carrying grain and bread and supplies needed for his father's journey.
Hahoi a na pa koevah, la hra touh, Izip ram hnokahawi kapawtkung hoi lamanu hra touh, lam vah a na pa hane cakang hoi vaiyei hoi canei han kaphawtkung lah a patoun.
24 Then he saw his brothers off, and as they left he told them, “Don't argue on the way!”
Hottelah a hmaunawnghanaw hah a patoun teh a ceisak. Ahni ni lam vah na kâyue awh hoeh nahanlah kâhruetcuet awh telah ati.
25 So they left Egypt and went back home to their father Jacob in the country of Canaan.
Izip hoi a tâco awh teh a na pa Jakop koe a pha awh.
26 “Joseph's still alive!” they told him. “It's true, and he's the ruler of the whole country of Egypt!” Jacob was stunned at the news—he just couldn't believe it!
Hatei, Joseph a hring rah Izip ram pueng ukkung lah ao telah a dei pouh awh. Jakop a lungmit teh, ahnimouh ni dei e tang thai hoeh.
27 But when they told him everything that Joseph had said to them, and when he saw the wagons that Joseph had sent to take him to Egypt, Jacob came back to his senses.
Hatei, ahni koe Joseph ni lawk dei e pueng hah a dei pouh awh. Hahoi a kâcui hane leng Joseph ni a patawn e hah a hmu toteh, a na pa Jakop e lungthin bout a kâhlaw.
28 Israel said, “All right, I believe you! My son Joseph is still alive! I'm going to go and see him before I die.”
Isarel ni a khout toe, ka capa Joseph teh a hring doeh rah, ka cei vaiteh, ka due hoehnahlan ka hmu han telah ati.
