Genesis 45
1 Then Ioseph could not refraine him selfe before all that stoode by him, but hee cryed, Haue forth euery man from me. And there taryed not one with him, while Ioseph vttered himselfe vnto his brethren.
Nʼoge a, Josef enwekwaghị ike ijite onwe ya aka nʼihu ndị na-ejere ya ozi. O welitara olu sị, “Zipụnụ onye ọbụla site nʼebe m nọ.” Ya mere, o nweghị onye ya na Josef nọ mgbe ọ kọọrọ ụmụnne ya onye ọ bụ.
2 And hee wept and cried, so that the Egyptians heard: the house of Pharaoh heard also.
O tiri mkpu akwa nke ndị Ijipt nụrụ, na nke ndị ụlọ Fero nụkwara.
3 Then Ioseph sayde to his brethren, I am Ioseph: doeth my father yet liue? But his brethren coulde not answere him, for they were astonished at his presence.
Josef gwara ụmụnne ya sị, “Mụ onwe m bụ Josef. Nna m ọ ka nọ ndụ ugbu a?” Ma ụmụnne ya enweghị ọnụ ha ji asa ya, nʼihi na oke egwu jidere ha nʼihu ya.
4 Againe, Ioseph sayde to his brethren, Come neere, I pray you, to mee. And they came neere. And he sayde, I am Ioseph your brother, whom ye sold into Egypt.
Mgbe ahụ, Josef sịrị ụmụnne ya, “Biko, bịanụ m nso.” Mgbe ha bịara ya nso, ọ sịrị ha, “Abụ m nwanne unu, Josef, onye unu rere ree gaa Ijipt.
5 Nowe therefore be not sad, neither grieued with your selues, that ye sold me hither: for God did send me before you for your preseruation.
Ma otu ọ dị, ka ọ ghara iwute unu, unu atakwala onwe unu ụta nʼihi orure unu rere m. Nʼihi na ọ bụ nʼihi ichebe ndụ unu ka Chineke ji buru ụzọ zite m nʼebe a.
6 For nowe two yeeres of famine haue bene through ye land, and fiue yeeres are behind, wherein neither shalbe earing nor haruest.
Oge ụnwụ agwụchabeghị. Ọ bụ ezie na afọ abụọ nke oke ụnwụ agafeela, ma ọ fọdụrụ afọ ise ọzọ nʼihu, oge a na-agaghị akọ ihe ọbụla nʼala, maọbụ iwere ihe ọbụla nʼubi.
7 Wherefore God sent me before you to preserue your posteritie in this land, and to saue you aliue by a great deliuerance.
Chineke zitere m ka m buru ụzọ bịa nʼebe a nʼihi ime ka ndụ fọdụrụ unu nʼụwa, na ịzọpụta ndụ unu site nʼụzọ nnapụta dị oke egwu.
8 Now the you sent not me hither, but God, who hath made mee a father vnto Pharaoh, and lorde of all his house, and ruler throughout all the land of Egypt.
“Ya mere, ọ bụghị unu zitere m nʼebe a, kama ọ bụ Chineke. Ya onwe ya emeela ka m ghọọrọ Fero nna, na onyeisi ezinaụlọ ya niile, na onye na-achị ala Ijipt niile.
9 Haste you and go vp to my father, and tel him, Thus saieth thy sonne Ioseph, God hath made me lord of all Egypt: come downe to me, tary not.
Ugbu a, meenụ ngwa lakwuru nna m, sị ya, ‘Ihe ndị a ka Josef nwa gị nwoke kwuru, Chineke emeela m onye na-achị Ijipt niile. Egbula oge ịbịakwute m.
10 And thou shalt dwel in ye land of Goshen, and shalt be neere me, thou and thy children, and thy childrens children, and thy sheepe, and thy beastes, and all that thou hast.
Ị ga-ebi nʼala Goshen, ka i nwee ike ịnọ m nso, gị na ụmụ gị, na ụmụ ụmụ gị, na igwe ewu na atụrụ gị, na igwe ehi gị, na ihe niile i nwere.
11 Also I will nourish thee there (for yet remaine fiue yeeres of famine) lest thou perish through pouertie, thou and thy houshold, and all that thou hast.
Nʼebe ahụ ka m ga-enyekwa gị ihe ị chọrọ, nʼihi na ụnwụ afọ ise ka dị nʼihu na-abịa. Ọ bụrụ na i meghị otu a, gị na ezinaụlọ gị na ihe niile bụ nke gị ga-ada ụkpa.’
12 And behold, your eyes doe see, and the eyes of my brother Beniamin, that my mouth speaketh to you.
“Nʼezie, anya unu na nʼanya nwanne m Benjamin, ahụla na mụ onwe m ji ọnụ m na-agwa unu okwu ndị a.
13 Therefore tel my father of al mine honour in Egypt, and of all that ye haue seene, and make haste, and bring my father hither.
Unu ga-akọrọ nna m maka nsọpụrụ niile a na-enye m nʼala Ijipt na ihe niile unu hụrụ. Kpọtakwanụ nna m ọsịịsọ ebe a.”
14 Then hee fell on his brother Beniamins necke, and wept, and Beniamin wept on his necke.
Ugbu a, ọ dakwasịrị nʼolu Benjamin, nwanne ya, kwaa akwa. Benjamin jidekwara ya nʼolu kwaa akwa.
15 Moreouer, he kissed all his brethren, and wept vpon them: and afterwarde his brethren talked with him.
Emesịa, o suturu ụmụnne ya niile ọnụ, bekwasịkwa ha akwa. Nʼikpeazụ, ụmụnne ya kpanyeere ya ụka.
16 And the tidinges came vnto Pharaohs house, so that they said, Iosephs brethre are come: and it pleased Pharaoh well, and his seruants.
Mgbe akụkọ a ruru ụlọ Fero na ụmụnne Josef bịara, ọ tọrọ Fero na ndịisi ozi niile ya ụtọ.
17 Then Pharaoh said vnto Ioseph, Say to thy brethren, This doe ye, lade your beastes and depart, go to the land of Canaan,
Fero gwara Josef sị ya, “Gwa ụmụnne gị, ka ha mee ihe otu a, ha bokwasị ịnyịnya ibu unu ibu laghachikwa nʼala Kenan.
18 And take your father, and your houshoulds, and come to me, and I wil giue you the best of the land of Egypt, and ye shall eate of the fat of the land.
Ha ruo, ha kpọta nna gị, na ezinaụlọ ha, ka ha lọghachikwute m nʼala Ijipt. Nʼihi na aga m enye ha ala kachasị mma nʼIjipt. Ha onwe ha ga-erikwa uru ala ahụ.
19 And I commaund thee, Thus doe ye, take you charets out of the lande of Egypt for your children, and for your wiues, and bring your father and come.
“Gwakwa ụmụnne gị okwu sị ha, ‘Sitenụ nʼala Ijipt were ụgbọala, nke unu ga-eji budata ndị nwunye unu na ụmụntakịrị unu. Dutekwanụ nna unu.
20 Also regarde not your stuffe: for the best of all the land of Egypt is yours.
Unu esogbula onwe unu banyere ngwa ụlọ unu, nʼihi na ihe niile dị mma nʼala Ijipt bụ nke unu.’”
21 And the children of Israel did so: and Ioseph gaue them charets according to the commandement of Pharaoh: hee gaue them vitaile also for the iourney.
Ya mere ụmụ Izrel mere ihe ndị a. Josef nyere ha ụgbọala dịka Fero nyere nʼiwu. O nyekwara ha nri ha ga-eri nʼụzọ.
22 He gaue them all, none except, change of raiment: but vnto Beniamin he gaue three hundreth pieces of siluer, and fiue sutes of raiment.
O nyere onye ọ bụla nʼime ha uwe mgbanwe ọhụrụ, ma o nyere Benjamin narị shekel ọlaọcha atọ, na uwe mgbanwe ise.
23 And vnto his father likewise hee sent ten hee asses laden with the best things of Egypt, and ten shee asses laden with wheate, and bread and meate for his father by the way.
O zipụụrụ nna ya ihe ndị a: ịnyịnya ibu iri ndị e bokwasịrị ihe mara mma niile si nʼala Ijipt, na nne ịnyịnya ibu iri ndị e bokwasịrị ọka na achịcha, na ihe ndị ọzọ dị iche iche, nʼihi ije ya.
24 So sent he his brethren away, and they departed: and he sayde vnto them, Fall not out by the way.
O zipụrụ ụmụnne ya. Ma oge ha na-achọ ịhapụ ya, ọ gwara ha sị, “Unu esekwala okwu nʼụzọ.”
25 Then they went vp from Egypt, and came vnto the land of Canaan vnto Iaakob their father,
Mgbe ahụ, ha hapụrụ ala Ijipt mechaa rute ala Kenan, bịakwute Jekọb nna ha.
26 And tolde him, saying, Ioseph is yet aliue, and he also is gouernour ouer all the lande of Egypt, and Iaakobs heart failed: for he beleeued them not.
Ha gwara ya sị, “Josef ka nọ ndụ. Nʼezie, ọ bụ ya na-achị ala Ijipt niile.” Ma o siiri Jekọb ike ịnabata akụkọ a. O kwenyeghị na ọ bụ eziokwu.
27 And they told him al the words of Ioseph, which he had said vnto the: but when he saw the charets, which Ioseph had sent to cary him, then the spirit of Iaakob their father reuiued.
Ma mgbe ha gwasịrị ya ihe niile Josef gwara ha, mgbe ọ hụkwara ụgbọala niile Josef zitere ka e jiri bute ya, mmụọ nna ha Jekọb lọghachiri.
28 And Israel said, I haue inough: Ioseph my sonne is yet aliue: I will go and see him yer I die.
Mgbe ahụ Izrel kwuru sị, “Ekwetala m! Josef nwa m ka dị ndụ. Aga m aga hụ ya anya tupu m nwụọ.”
