Genesis 47
1 Then came Ioseph and tolde Pharaoh, and sayde, My father, and my brethren, and their sheepe, and their cattell, and all that they haue, are come out of the land of Canaan, and behold, they are in the land of Goshen.
Jusufu agĩthiĩ akĩĩra Firaũni atĩrĩ, “Baba na ariũ a baba hamwe na ndũũru ciao cia mbũri na cia ngʼombe na indo ciao ciothe nĩmokĩte kuuma bũrũri wa Kaanani, na rĩu marĩ Gosheni.”
2 And Ioseph tooke part of his brethren, euen fiue men, and presented them vnto Pharaoh.
Ningĩ agĩthuura ariũ a ithe atano na akĩmatwara mbere ya Firaũni.
3 Then Pharaoh said vnto his brethren, What is your trade? And they answered Pharaoh, Thy seruants are shepheards, both we and our fathers.
Firaũni akĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Mũrutaga wĩra ũrĩkũ?” Nao magĩcookeria Firaũni atĩrĩ, “Ithuĩ ndungata ciaku tũrĩ arĩithi, o ta ũrĩa maithe maitũ maarĩ.”
4 They sayde moreouer vnto Pharaoh, For to soiourne in ye lande are we come: for thy seruants haue no pasture for their sheepe, so sore is ye famine in the lande of Canaan. Nowe therefore, we pray thee, let thy seruants dwel in the land of Goshen.
Ningĩ makĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Tũũkĩte gũikara gũkũ kwa ihinda, tondũ ngʼaragu ĩno nĩ nene kũu Kaanani, na ndũũru cia ndungata ciaku nĩ ciagĩte ũrĩithio. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio twagũthaitha wĩtĩkĩrie ndungata ciaku itũũre Gosheni.”
5 Then spake Pharaoh to Ioseph, saying, Thy father and thy brethren are come vnto thee.
Firaũni akĩĩra Jusufu atĩrĩ, “Thoguo na ariũ a thoguo mokĩte kũrĩ we,
6 The lande of Egypt is before thee: in the best place of the land make thy father and thy brethren dwel: let the dwel in the land of Goshen: and if thou knowest that there be men of actiuitie among them, make them rulers ouer my cattell.
na bũrũri wa Misiri ũrĩ mbere yaku; he thoguo na ariũ a thoguo mwena ũrĩa mwega mũno wa bũrũri ũyũ. Reke maikare Gosheni. Na rĩrĩ, angĩkorwo nĩũũĩ amwe ao marĩ na ũũgĩ wa mwanya-rĩ, matue arũgamĩrĩri a mahiũ makwa.”
7 Ioseph also brought Iaakob his father, and set him before Pharaoh. And Iaakob saluted Pharaoh.
Ningĩ Jusufu akĩrehe ithe Jakubu mbere ya Firaũni. Na Jakubu aarĩkia kũrathima Firaũni-rĩ,
8 Then Pharaoh sayde vnto Iaakob, Howe olde art thou?
Firaũni akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Ũrĩ na mĩaka ĩigana?”
9 And Iaakob sayd vnto Pharaoh, The whole time of my pilgrimage is an hundreth and thirty yeeres: fewe and euill haue the dayes of my life bene, and I haue not attayned vnto the yeeres of the life of my fathers, in the dayes of their pilgrimages.
Nake Jakubu akĩĩra Firaũni atĩrĩ, “Mĩaka yakwa ya kũũrũũra nĩ igana rĩmwe na mĩrongo ĩtatũ. Mĩaka yakwa ĩkoretwo ĩrĩ mĩnini na ya mĩtangĩko, na ndĩigana mĩaka ya kũũrũũra kwa maithe makwa.”
10 And Iaakob tooke leaue of Pharaoh, and departed from the presence of Pharaoh.
Jakubu agĩcooka akĩrathima Firaũni na akĩehera akiuma hau Firaũni aarĩ.
11 And Ioseph placed his father, and his brethren, and gaue them possession in the lande of Egypt, in the best of the land, euen in the lande of Rameses, as Pharaoh had commanded.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Jusufu akĩhe ithe na ariũ a ithe ũtũũro kũu Misiri na akĩmahe mĩgũnda mwena ũrĩa mwega mũno wa bũrũri ũcio, rũgongo rwa Ramesese o ta ũrĩa Firaũni aathanĩte.
12 And Ioseph nourished his father, and his brethren, and all his fathers houshold with bread, euen to the yong children.
Ningĩ Jusufu nĩaheaga ithe na ariũ a ithe na andũ a nyũmba ya ithe othe irio kũringana na mũigana wa ciana ciao.
13 Now there was no bread in all the land: for the famine was exceeding sore: so that the land of Egypt, and the land of Canaan were famished by reason of the famine.
Na rĩrĩ, gũtiarĩ irio mwena ũcio wothe, tondũ ngʼaragu yarĩ nene mũno; na Misiri na Kaanani cierĩ nĩ ciahinyĩrĩrĩkĩte nĩ ũndũ wa ngʼaragu ĩyo.
14 And Ioseph gathered all the money, that was found in the land of Egypt, and in the land of Canaan, for the corne which they bought, and Ioseph layd vp the money in Pharaohs house.
Jusufu akĩũngania mbeeca iria ciothe ingĩonekire bũrũri wa Misiri na wa Kaanani, irĩ irĩhi rĩa ngano ĩrĩa andũ maagũraga, nake agĩcitwara nyũmba-inĩ ya ũthamaki ya Firaũni.
15 So when money fayled in the lande of Egypt, and in the lande of Canaan, then all the Egyptians came vnto Ioseph, and sayde, Giue vs bread: for why should we dye before thee? for our money is spent.
Na rĩrĩa mbeeca cia andũ a Misiri na cia andũ a Kaanani ciathirire-rĩ, andũ a Misiri othe magĩthiĩ kũrĩ Jusufu, makĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Tũhe irio. Tũngĩgĩkua ũtwĩroreire nĩkĩ? Mbeeca ciitũ nĩithirĩte biũ.”
16 Then saide Ioseph, Bring your cattell, and I will giue you for your cattell, if your money be spent.
Nake Jusufu akĩmacookeria atĩrĩ, “Ndeherai mahiũ manyu, na nĩngũmwenderia irio nĩ ũndũ wa mo tondũ mbeeca nĩ thiru.”
17 So they brought their cattell vnto Ioseph, and Ioseph gaue them bread for the horses, and for the flockes of sheepe, and for the heards of cattel, and for the asses: so he fed them with bread for all their cattell that yeere.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio magĩtwarĩra Jusufu mahiũ mao, nake akĩmakũũranĩria irio na mbarathi ciao, na ngʼondu na mbũri ciao, na ngʼombe na ndigiri ciao. Nake Jusufu akĩmateithĩrĩria mwaka ũcio wothe na irio, magĩcikũũrania na mahiũ mao mothe.
18 But when the yeere was ended, they came vnto him the next yeere, and sayd vnto him, We will not hide from my lord, that since our money is spent, and my lord hath the heards of the cattel, there is nothing left in the sight of my lorde, but our bodies and our ground.
Naguo mwaka ũcio wathira-rĩ, magĩũka kũrĩ we mwaka ũyũ ũngĩ, makĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Tũtingĩhota kũhitha mwathi witũ ũndũ, kuona atĩ mbeeca ciitũ nĩithirĩte, na mahiũ maitũ rĩu nĩ maku, na gũtirĩ kĩndũ gĩtigaire kĩa mwathi witũ tiga mĩĩrĩ iitũ na ithaka ciitũ.
19 Why shall we perish in thy sight, both we, and our land? bye vs and our land for bread, and we and our land will be bonde to Pharaoh: therefore giue vs seede, that we may liue and not dye, and that the land go not to waste.
Tũngĩgĩkua ũtwĩroreire nĩkĩ, ithuĩ na ithaka ciitũ hamwe? Tũgũranĩrie hamwe na ithaka ciitũ, ũtũhe irio, na ithuĩ na ithaka ciitũ tũtuĩke ngombo cia Firaũni. Tũhe mbeũ nĩgeetha tũtũũre muoyo, tũtigakue, na nĩguo bũrũri witũ ndũkanangĩke.”
20 So Ioseph bought all the lande of Egypt for Pharaoh: for the Egyptians solde euery man his ground because the famine was sore vpon the: so the land became Pharaohs.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Jusufu akĩgũrĩra Firaũni bũrũri wothe wa Misiri. Nao andũ a Misiri makĩendia ithaka ciao, mũndũ o mũndũ, nĩ ũndũ ngʼaragu nĩyamahatĩrĩirie mũno. Naguo bũrũri wothe ũgĩtuĩka wa Firaũni.
21 And he remoued the people vnto the cities, from one side of Egypt euen to the other.
Nake Jusufu agĩgĩtua andũ ngombo kuuma mwena ũmwe wa Misiri nginya ũrĩa ũngĩ.
22 Onely the lande of the Priestes bought he not: for the Priestes had an ordinarie of Pharaoh, and they did eate their ordinarie, which Pharaoh gaue them: wherefore they solde not their grounde.
No rĩrĩ, ndaigana kũgũra ithaka cia athĩnjĩri-ngai akuo, tondũ o maarĩ na igai maaheagwo nĩ Firaũni, na maarĩ na irio cia kũmaigana kuuma kũrĩ igai rĩu Firaũni aamaheaga. Kĩu nĩkĩo gĩatũmire mage kwendia ithaka ciao.
23 Then Ioseph sayd vnto the people, Behold, I haue bought you this daye, and your lande for Pharaoh: lo, here is seede for you: sowe therefore the grounde.
Nake Jusufu akĩĩra andũ acio atĩrĩ, “Rĩu tondũ ũmũthĩ nĩndamũgũra hamwe na ithaka cianyu mũtuĩke a Firaũni-rĩ, mbeũ cianyu nĩcio ici; oyai mũkahaande mĩgũnda.
24 And of the encrease ye shall giue the fifth part vnto Pharaoh, and foure partes shalbe yours for the seede of the fielde, and for your meate, and for them of your housholdes, and for your children to eate.
No rĩrĩa mũkaagetha, mũkaahe Firaũni gĩcunjĩ gĩa gatano. Icunjĩ icio ingĩ inya harĩ ithano no mwĩigĩre irĩ mbeũ cia kũhaanda na irio cianyu ene na cia nyũmba cianyu, na cia ciana cianyu.”
25 Then they answered, Thou hast saued our liues: let vs finde grace in the sight of my Lord, and we will be Pharaohs seruants.
Nao makiuga atĩrĩ, “Nĩwahonokia mĩoyo iitũ. Tũroogĩtĩkĩrĩka maitho-inĩ ma mwathi witũ; ithuĩ tũgũtũũra tũrĩ ngombo cia Firaũni.”
26 Then Ioseph made it a lawe ouer the land of Egypt vnto this day, that Pharaoh should haue the fift part, except the land of the priests only, which was not Pharaohs.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Jusufu akĩruta watho ũkoniĩ ithaka cia Misiri, na nĩũtũire nginya ũmũthĩ, atĩ gĩcunjĩ gĩa gatano kĩa magetha nĩ kĩa Firaũni. No ithaka cia athĩnjĩri-ngai akuo itaatuĩkire cia Firaũni.
27 And Israel dwelt in the lande of Egypt, in the countrey of Goshen: and they had their possessions therein, and grewe and multiplied exceedingly.
Nao andũ a Isiraeli magĩtũũra Misiri bũrũri-inĩ wa Gosheni. Makĩgĩa na indo kuo na magĩciarana, makĩingĩha mũno.
28 Moreouer, Iaakob liued in the lande of Egypt seuenteene yeeres, so that the whole age of Iaakob was an hundreth fourtie and seuen yeere.
Jakubu aikarire Misiri mĩaka ikũmi na mũgwanja, nayo mĩaka yake ĩrĩa aatũũrire muoyo yarĩ mĩaka igana rĩmwe na mĩrongo ĩna na mũgwanja.
29 Now when the time drewe neere that Israel must dye, he called his sonne Ioseph, and sayde vnto him, If I haue nowe founde grace in thy sight, put thine hand nowe vnder my thigh, and deale mercifully and truely with me: burie me not, I pray thee, in Egypt.
Na rĩrĩa ihinda rĩa Isiraeli rĩa gũkua rĩakuhĩrĩirie-rĩ, agĩtũmanĩra mũriũ wake Jusufu, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Angĩkorwo nĩnjĩtĩkĩrĩkĩte maitho-inĩ maku-rĩ, iga guoko gwaku rungu rwa kĩero gĩakwa, na ũnjĩĩre atĩ nĩũkanjĩka maũndũ ma ũtugi na ma wĩhokeku. Ndũkanaathike gũkũ Misiri,
30 But when I shall sleepe with my fathers, thou shalt carry me out of Egypt, and bury mee in their buryall. And he answered, I will doe as thou hast sayde.
no rĩrĩa ngaahurũka hamwe na maithe makwa, ũkanguua, ũndute Misiri, ũgaathike o harĩa mathikĩtwo.” Nake Jusufu akiuga atĩrĩ, “Nĩngeeka o ũguo woiga.”
31 The he said, Sweare vnto me. And he sware vnto him. And Israel worshipped towardes the beds head.
Nake Isiraeli akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Wĩhĩte na mwĩhĩtwa.” Nake Jusufu akĩĩhĩta harĩ we na mwĩhĩtwa, nake Isiraeli akĩhooya enyiitĩrĩire mũthĩgi wake.
