< Genesis 43 >
1 Now great famine was in the land.
Leleꞌ naa, ndoes-laꞌas sia Kanaꞌan boe fua.
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.
Yakob no ume isi nara rabasaꞌ hendi nanaat fo maꞌahulu na, ana nara rendi mia Masir. Boe ma ana nafadꞌe se nae, “Ana nggare. Malole lenaꞌ hei baliꞌ Masir mii, fo hasa seluꞌ nanaat fee hita dei.”
3 And Iudah answered him, saying, The man charged vs by an othe, saying, Neuer see my face, except your brother be with you.
Te Yahuda nataa nae, “Amaꞌ! Faiꞌ naa, fetor naa fee nesenenedꞌaꞌ neu hai nae, mete ma hai nda mo amaꞌ ana muri ma sa, naa, hai afiꞌ mitudꞌu mata mara neu e.
4 If thou wilt sende our brother with vs, we will goe downe, and bye thee foode:
De amaꞌ musi mboꞌi odꞌi Benyamin, fo tungga hai dei. Naa fo hai feꞌe mii hasa nanaat fee amaꞌ.
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.
Te mete ma amaꞌ nda fee Benyamin neu sa, naa, hai o nda mi saꞌ boe. Te atahori Masir naa olaꞌ taꞌo naa ena naa.”
6 And Israel sayd, Wherefore delt ye so euill with me, as to tell the man, whether ye had yet a brother or no?
Boe ma Yakob ai se nae, “Taꞌo bee de hei mifadꞌe atahori naa, mae hei odꞌi ma feꞌe hela esa fai. Hei sangga miꞌisususaꞌ a au!”
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?
Te ara kokoe rae, “Amaꞌ e! Atahori naa akaꞌ natane nakandooꞌ a, fo nae bubꞌuluꞌ hita bobꞌonggiꞌ nara. Ana natane nae, ‘Taꞌo bee? Hei ama ma feꞌe masodꞌaꞌ, do? Hei feꞌe ma odꞌi touꞌ fai, do?’ De hai feꞌe mae saa fai!’ Naa de hai o olaꞌ no matetuꞌ boe. Te se nitaꞌ nae ana nae denu hai mendi odꞌiꞌ neu sia naa?”
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.
Boe ma Yahuda olaꞌ seluꞌ nae, “Amaꞌ! Mboꞌi anaꞌ naa neu no hai leo. Au helu, mete ma dadꞌi saa-saa neu e, naa, au nggati ala e. Mete ma au nda o baliꞌ e masodꞌaꞌ neu amaꞌ sa, naa, amaꞌ fua salaꞌ neu au losa mate. Dadꞌi amaꞌ mboꞌi anaꞌ naa leo, te hai mae lao ia ena. Malole lenaꞌ hai mi lai-lai, fo ata afiꞌ mate ndoes.
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.
10 For except we had made this tarying, doutlesse by this we had returned the second time.
Sobꞌa hai nda mihani doo na basa ia sa, naa hai baliꞌ lao rua ena.”
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:
Boe ma ama na nae, “Mete ma taꞌo naa, naa, hei tao taꞌo ia. Mendi hita rae na buna-bꞌoa malole na, onaꞌ a oni oeꞌ, bumbu-bumbu, hau maꞌameniꞌ raa na, modꞌo salap, kanari no hau dekeꞌ lain ra. Mendi basa se fee neu fetor Masir a, fo mae ia hita lepa-ngges na.
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.
Hei o mendi doiꞌ dedesi na lao rua, huu hei musi fee baliꞌ doiꞌ fo hei hambu mia karon mara faiꞌ naa. Mbei ma atahori naa ra mbedꞌaꞌ rasalaꞌ.
13 Take also your brother and arise, and go againe to the man.
Mo hei odꞌi ma boe, te baliꞌ lai-lai e.
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.
Au hule-huleꞌ fo Lamatualain Koasa mana Seliꞌ na, tao fetor a kasian hei. Naa fo ana nau fee baliꞌ Benyamin no Simeon, fo basa hei baliꞌ. Te, mete ma ana nggara mopo se, naa, au lemba sususaꞌ naa sambe mate.”
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.
Basa naa de, ara reu raduru lepa-ngges ma haꞌi doiꞌ, fo rendi Masir neu. De ara lao ro Benyamin. Ara losa naa de, reu risiꞌ 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.
Yusuf nita Benyamin no aꞌa nara ma, ana denu malangga mana tao ues nae, “We! Mo atahori ia ra risiꞌ ume ngga. Mi tati sapi esa, fo nasu maladꞌa-maladꞌaꞌ. Te dei fo, ara raa reorenduꞌ ro au.”
17 And the man did as Ioseph bad, and brought the men vnto Iosephs house.
Boe ma, malangga mana tao ues tao tungga Yusuf parenda na. De ana no se risiꞌ Yusuf ume na.
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.
Ara lao boe ma, aꞌa nara ramatau rala seli. Sia dalaꞌ taladꞌa na ara ola-olaꞌ rae, “We! Taꞌo bee de ana denu ro hita tisiꞌ ia. Seꞌu-seꞌu te nae tao naꞌasususaꞌ hita, huu doiꞌ fo ara tao baliꞌ sia hita karon na maꞌahulu na. Ara ro hita ia tema, fo aiboiꞌ ma, toꞌu hita, fo tao dadꞌi ate na. Ma rambas rala hita keledei nara.”
19 Therefore came they to Iosephs stewarde, and communed with him at the doore of ye house.
Naa de, deka-deka Yusuf ume na ma, ara olaꞌ ro malangga mana tao ues a rae,
20 And said, Oh syr, we came in deede down hither at the first time to bye foode,
“Ama! Hai moꞌe maꞌaf, te maꞌahulu na hai ima hasa nanaat sia ia ena boe.
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.
Hai baliꞌ kamboꞌ mi, de hai hahae mia dalaꞌ. Mae sungguꞌ ma, hai sefi karon fo mae hani banda ra. Naa te hai hambu baliꞌ esa-esaꞌ doiꞌ are mara, mia karon rala. Hai nda mihine seka mana tao neu naa sa. De ia naa, hai mendi baliꞌ basa doiꞌ naa ra. Dadꞌi amaꞌ afiꞌ mumunasa o. Hela fo amaꞌ nahine, ia naa hai o mendi doiꞌ lenaꞌ fo mae hasa seluꞌ nanaat feuꞌ.”
22 Also other money haue we brought in our handes to bye foode, but we cannot tell, who put our money in our sackes.
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.
Basa ma, malangga mana tao uesꞌ a nataa nae, “Hei neneꞌ a. Afiꞌ mimitau. Mbei ma hei Lamatualain ma, mana fee nggi papala-babꞌanggiꞌ sia karon naa ra. Faiꞌ naa, au simbo ala basa hei doi ma ena. Hei nda mihuta saa saꞌ boe!” Boe ma ana mboꞌi Simeon neu se.
24 So the man led them into Iosephs house, and gaue them water to wash their feete, and gaue their asses prouender.
De basa se risiꞌ Yusuf ume na rala. Malangga mana tao ues a fee se oe safe ei nara. Ana o hani keledei nara boe.
25 And they made ready their present against Ioseph came at noone, (for they heard say, that they should eate bread there)
Boe ma, nafadꞌe nae, “Dei fo hei mia reorenduꞌ mo malangga.” Ara feꞌe rahati Yusuf nenema na ma, ara haꞌi memaꞌ lepa-ngges nara.
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.
Yusuf losa boe, basa se sendeꞌ lululangga nara sia mata na. Dei de, ara fee lepa-ngges ra reu e.
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?
Yusuf natane se nae, “Taꞌo bee? Basa hei malolole, do? Hei ama ma lasiꞌ naa, onaꞌ bee? Ana malole, do?”
28 Who answered, Thy seruant our father is in good health, he is yet aliue: and they bowed downe, and made obeysance.
Rataa rae, “Amaꞌ ate lasi ma, fo hai ama bꞌonggi ma, malolole.” Basa de, ara beꞌutee fee hadat neu e.
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.
Yusuf mete ndule basa se, de nita odꞌi na Benyamin. Ana nae, “Ooo! Ia eni, hei odꞌi muri ma fo hei dui faiꞌ naa, do?” Boe ma ana olaꞌ no Benyamin nae, “Ana ngge! Au hule-huleꞌ fo Lamatualain pala-banggi fee nggo papala-babꞌanggiꞌ naeꞌ.”
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.
Nita Benyamin ma, Yusuf naeꞌ a natudꞌu susue na ena. Huu ana sue odꞌi na nae na seli. Ana nda naeꞌ a naꞌatataaꞌ nala rala na sa ena. De ana lai-lai lao hela se, nisiꞌ kama na rala. Ana nggae mesuꞌudꞌu-faruka sia naa.
31 Afterward he washed his face, and came out, and refrained himselfe, and sayd, Set on meate.
Nggae basa, dei de neu narou mata na. Ana naꞌamamateꞌ rala na, de neu nandaa no se fai. Basa de, ana denu pagau nara reu ralalau mei a.
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.
Ara tao fee Yusuf naa mia mei mesaꞌ ne. Odi-aꞌa nara raa sia mei feaꞌ. Atahori Masir mana tao ues nara raa sia mei feaꞌ boe, huu atahori Masir ra melumudꞌu raa raꞌabꞌue ro atahori Ibrani ra.
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.
Malangga mana tao ues a fee Yusuf odꞌi-aꞌa nara endoꞌ matambambaliꞌ ro e. Ana fee se endoꞌ teri-teri tungga sira too nara, mia aꞌaꞌ losa odꞌi muriꞌ a. Rita taꞌo naa ma, titindindi.
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.
Yusuf denu pagau nara haꞌi nanaat fee odꞌi-aꞌa nara mia mei na. Basa se simbo ona-ona esaꞌ. Te ara tao fee Benyamin, lenaꞌ aꞌa nara lao lima. De basa se raa-rinu losa raꞌabeta.
