< Genesis 43 >
1 Now great famine was in the land.
A yanzu, yunwa ta yi tsanani a ƙasar.
2 And when they had eaten vp the vitaile, which they had brought from Egypt, their father sayd vnto them, Turne againe, and bye vs a little foode.
Saboda haka sa’ad da suka cinye dukan hatsin da suka kawo daga Masar, mahaifinsu ya ce musu, “Ku koma, ku sayo mana ƙarin abinci.”
3 And Iudah answered him, saying, The man charged vs by an othe, saying, Neuer see my face, except your brother be with you.
Amma Yahuda ya ce masa, “Mutumin ya gargaɗe mu sosai cewa, ‘Ba za ku sāke ganin fuskata ba sai in ɗan’uwanku yana tare da ku.’
4 If thou wilt sende our brother with vs, we will goe downe, and bye thee foode:
In za ka aika da ɗan’uwanmu tare da mu, za mu gangara mu sayo maka abinci.
5 But if thou wilt not send him, we wil not go downe: for the man said vnto vs, Looke me not in the face, except your brother be with you.
Amma in ba za ka aika da shi ba, ba za mu gangara ba, gama mutumin ya ce mana, ‘Ba za ku sāke ganin fuskata ba sai ko in ɗan’uwanku yana tare da ku.’”
6 And Israel sayd, Wherefore delt ye so euill with me, as to tell the man, whether ye had yet a brother or no?
Isra’ila ya yi tambaya, “Me ya sa kuka kawo wannan damuwa a kaina ta wurin faɗa wa mutumin cewa kuna da wani ɗan’uwa?”
7 And they answered, The man asked straitly of our selues and of our kinred, saying, Is your father yet aliue? haue ye any brother? And wee tolde him according to these wordes: could we knowe certainely that he would say, Bring your brother downe?
Suka amsa, “Mutumin ya yi mana tambaya sosai game da kanmu da iyalinmu. Ya tambaye mu, ‘Mahaifinku yana da rai har yanzu? Kuna da wani ɗan’uwa?’ Mu dai mun amsa tambayoyinsa ne. Ta yaya za mu sani zai ce, ‘Ku kawo ɗan’uwanku a nan’?”
8 Then sayde Iudah to Israel his father, Send the boy with mee, that we may rise and goe, and that we may liue and not dye, both we, and thou, and our children.
Sa’an nan Yahuda ya ce wa Isra’ila mahaifinsa, “Ka aika saurayin tare da ni za mu kuwa tafi nan da nan, saboda mu da’ya’yanmu mu rayu, kada mu mutu.
9 I wil be suertie for him: of mine hand shalt thou require him. If I bring him not to thee, and set him before thee, then let me beare the blame for euer.
Ni kaina zan tabbatar da lafiyarsa; na ɗauki lamuninsa, a hannuna za ka neme shi. In ban dawo da shi gare ka, in sa shi nan a gabanka ba, zan ɗauki laifin a gabanka dukan kwanakina.
10 For except we had made this tarying, doutlesse by this we had returned the second time.
Ai, da ba mun jinkirta ba, da mun komo har sau biyu.”
11 Then their father Israel sayd vnto them, If it must needes be so now, do thus: take of the best fruites of the lande in your vessels, and bring the man a present, a little rosen, and a little hony, spices and myrrhe, nuttes, and almondes:
Sa’an nan mahaifinsu Isra’ila ya ce musu, “In dole ne a yi haka, to, sai ku yi. Ku sa waɗansu amfani mafi kyau na ƙasar a buhunanku, ku ɗauka zuwa wurin mutumin a matsayin kyauta, da ɗan man ƙanshi na shafawa, da kuma’yar zuma, da kayan yaji, da ƙaro, da tsabar citta da kuma almon.
12 And take double money in your hande, and the money, that was brought againe in your sackes mouthes: cary it againe in your hand, lest it were some ouersight.
Ku ɗauki ninki biyu na yawan azurfa tare da ku, gama dole ku mayar da azurfan da aka sa a cikin bakunan buhunanku. Mai yiwuwa an yi haka a kuskure ne.
13 Take also your brother and arise, and go againe to the man.
Ku ɗauki ɗan’uwanku kuma ku koma wurin mutumin nan da nan.
14 And God almightie giue you mercie in the sight of the man, that hee may deliuer you your other brother, and Beniamin: but I shall be robbed of my childe, as I haue bene.
Bari Allah Maɗaukaki yă nuna muku alheri a gaban mutumin saboda yă bar ɗan’uwanku da Benyamin su dawo tare da ku. Ni kuwa, in na yi rashi, na yi rashi.”
15 Thus the men tooke this present, and tooke twise so much money in their hande with Beniamin, and rose vp, and went downe to Egypt and stoode before Ioseph.
Saboda haka mutanen suka ɗauki kyautar, da kuma kuɗin da ya ninka na farko. Suka kuma ɗauki Benyamin, suka gaggauta suka gangara zuwa Masar suka kuma gabatar da kansu ga Yusuf.
16 And whe Ioseph saw Beniamin with them, he sayde to his stewarde, Bring these men home and kill meate, and make ready: for the men shall eate with me at noone.
Sa’ad da Yusuf ya ga Benyamin tare da su, sai ya ce wa mai hidimar gidansa, “Ka shigar da mutanen cikin gida, ka yanka dabba ka shirya, gama mutanen za su ci abincin rana tare da ni.”
17 And the man did as Ioseph bad, and brought the men vnto Iosephs house.
Mutumin ya yi kamar yadda Yusuf ya faɗa masa, ya kuwa ɗauki mutanen zuwa gidan Yusuf.
18 Nowe when the men were brought into Iosephs house, they were afrayd, and sayd, Because of the money, that came in our sackes mouthes at the first time, are we brought, that hee may picke a quarrell against vs, and lay some thing to our charge, and bring vs in bondage and our asses.
Mutanen dai suka firgita sa’ad da aka ɗauke su zuwa gidansa. Suka yi tunani, “An kawo mu nan ne saboda azurfan da aka sa a cikin buhunanmu da farko. Yana so yă fāɗa mana, yă kuma sha ƙarfinmu, yă ƙwace mu kamar bayi, yă kuma kwashe jakunanmu.”
19 Therefore came they to Iosephs stewarde, and communed with him at the doore of ye house.
Saboda haka suka je wurin mai yin wa Yusuf hidima, suka yi masa magana a bakin ƙofar gida.
20 And said, Oh syr, we came in deede down hither at the first time to bye foode,
Suka ce, “Ranka yă daɗe, mun zo nan ƙaro na farko don mu saya abinci,
21 And as wee came to an ynne and opened our sackes, behold, euery mans money was in his sackes mouth, euen our money in full weight, but we haue brought it againe in our handes.
amma a inda muka tsaya don mu kwana, da muka buɗe buhunanmu sai kowannenmu ya sami azurfansa daidai a bakin buhunsa. Saboda haka ga kuɗin a hannunmu, mun sāke komowa da su.
22 Also other money haue we brought in our handes to bye foode, but we cannot tell, who put our money in our sackes.
Mun kuma kawo ƙarin azurfa tare da mu don mu saya abinci. Ba mu san wa ya sa azurfanmu a cikin buhunanmu ba.”
23 And he said, Peace be vnto you, feare not: your God and the God of your father hath giuen you that treasure in your sackes, I had your money: and he brought forth Simeon to them.
Sai mai hidimar ya ce, “Ba kome, kada ku ji tsoro. Allahnku, Allahn mahaifinku ne ya ba ku dukiyar a cikin buhunanku; ni dai, na karɓi azurfanku.” Sa’an nan ya fitar musu da Simeyon.
24 So the man led them into Iosephs house, and gaue them water to wash their feete, and gaue their asses prouender.
Mai yin hidimar ya ɗauki mutane zuwa gidan Yusuf ya ba su ruwa su wanke ƙafafunsu, ya kuma tanada wa jakunansu abinci.
25 And they made ready their present against Ioseph came at noone, (for they heard say, that they should eate bread there)
Suka shirya kyautansu domin isowar Yusuf da rana, gama sun ji cewa zai ci abinci a nan.
26 When Ioseph came home, they brought the present into the house to him, which was in their handes, and bowed downe to the grounde before him.
Sa’ad da Yusuf ya zo gida, sai suka ba shi kyautai da suka kawo, suka rusuna a gabansa har ƙasa.
27 And he asked them of their prosperitie, and sayd, Is your father the olde man, of whome ye tolde me, in good health? is he yet aliue?
Ya tambaye su, yaya suke, sa’an nan ya ce, “Yaya tsohon nan mahaifinku da kuka faɗa mini? Yana da rai har yanzu?”
28 Who answered, Thy seruant our father is in good health, he is yet aliue: and they bowed downe, and made obeysance.
Suka amsa, “Bawanka mahaifinmu yana da rai har yanzu da kuma ƙoshin lafiya.” Suka kuma rusuna suka yi mubaya’a.
29 And he lifting vp his eyes, beheld his brother Beniamin his mothers sonne, and sayde, Is this your yonger brother, of whome ye tolde me? And he said, God be merciful vnto thee, my sone.
Da ya ɗaga idanu, sai ya ga ɗan’uwansa Benyamin, ɗan mahaifiyarsa, sai ya yi tambaya, “Wannan ne ƙaramin ɗan’uwanku, wanda kuka faɗa mini a kai?” Ya kuma ce, “Allah yă yi maka albarka, ɗana.”
30 And Ioseph made haste (for his affection was inflamed towarde his brother, and sought where to weepe) and entred into his chamber, and wept there.
Saboda motsi mai zurfi da zuciyarsa ta yi da ganin ɗan’uwansa, sai Yusuf ya gaggauta ya fita, ya nemi wuri yă yi kuka. Ya shiga ɗakinsa ya yi kuka a can.
31 Afterward he washed his face, and came out, and refrained himselfe, and sayd, Set on meate.
Bayan ya wanke fuskarsa, sai ya fito ya daure, ya umarta, “A kawo abinci.”
32 And they prepared for him by himselfe, and for them by themselues, and for the Egyptians, which did eate with him, by themselues, because the Egyptians might not eate bread with the Ebrewes: for that was an abomination vnto the Egyptians.
Sai aka raba musu abinci, nasa shi kaɗai su kuma su kaɗai, domin Masarawa ba sa cin abinci tare da Ibraniyawa, gama wannan abin ƙyama ne ga Masarawa.
33 So they sate before him: the eldest according vnto his age, and the yongest according vnto his youth. and the men marueiled among themselues.
Aka zaunar da’yan’uwan Yusuf a gabansa bisa ga shekarunsu, daga ɗan fari zuwa auta.’Yan’uwan kuwa suka duddubi juna suna mamaki.
34 And they tooke meases from before him, and sent to them: but Beniamins mease was fiue times so much as any of theirs: and they drunke, and had of the best drinke with him.
Daga teburin da yake a gaban Yusuf aka riƙa ɗibar rabonsu ana kai musu, amma rabon Benyamin ya yi biyar ɗin na kowannensu. Suka kuwa sha, suka yi murna tare da shi.
