< Genesis 48 >

1 Againe after this, one sayd to Ioseph, Loe, thy father is sicke: then hee tooke with him his two sonnes, Manasseh and Ephraim.
Nda dooꞌ sa ma, atahori rema rafadꞌe Yusuf rae ama na namahedꞌi. De no ana nara ruꞌa se, Manase ma Efraim, reu seꞌu baꞌi Yakob na.
2 Also one told Iaakob, and said, Behold, thy sonne Ioseph is come to thee, and Israel tooke his strength vnto him and sate vpon the bed.
Yakob rena Yusuf se rema ma, ana naꞌamamateꞌ ao na endoꞌ sia koi.
3 Then Iaakob sayde vnto Ioseph, God almightie appeared vnto me at Luz in the land of Canaan, and blessed me.
Ana nafadꞌe Yusuf nae, “Ana Usu e! Lamatualain koasa manaseli na, natudꞌu Ao na nema au mia kambo Lus sia rae Kanaꞌan. Sia naa, Ana helu au,
4 And he sayde vnto me, Behold, I wil make thee fruitefull, and will multiplie thee, and will make a great number of people of thee, and will giue this lande vnto thy seede after thee for an euerlasting possession.
nae, ‘Dei fo au fee umbu-ana mara ramaheta, fo tititi-nonosi mara dadꞌi leo monaeꞌ. Ma nusaꞌ ia, Au fee neu tititi-nonosi mara, fo dadꞌi sira hata-heto na losa nduꞌu-dꞌoo na neu.’
5 And now thy two sonnes, Manasseh and Ephraim, which are borne vnto thee in the lande of Egypt, before I came to thee into Egypt, shall be mine, as Reuben and Simeon are mine.
De ia naa, ana ma Efraim no Manase, hak nara taꞌo ia: au uma sia Masir ia, ruꞌa se au umbu nggara. Mae onaꞌ naa o, ia naa, au tao se dadꞌi ana nggara, onaꞌ a Ruben ma Simeon.
6 But the linage, which thou hast begotten after them, shalbe thine: they shall be called after the names of their brethren in their inheritance.
Te mete ma ho hambu anaꞌ fai, naa ho ana mara. Au nda tao se onaꞌ au ana nggara sa. De ara simbo hata-hetoꞌ mia aꞌa nara Manase no Efraim.
7 Nowe when I came from Padan, Rahel died vpon mine hande in the lande of Canaan, by the way when there was but halfe a dayes iourney of grounde to come to Ephrath: and I buryed her there in the way to Ephrath: the same is Beth-lehem.
Au tao taꞌo naa, fo musunedꞌa ina ma Rahel. Leleꞌ hai baliꞌ mia Mesopotamia misiꞌ Kanaꞌan, ina ma bꞌonggi de mate mia dalaꞌ taladꞌa na deka kambo Efrata sia rae Kanaꞌan. Leleꞌ naa, au susa ala seli. De au uꞌoi e sia dalaꞌ suu na nae nisiꞌ kambo Efrata.” (Kamboꞌ naa aleꞌ ia, ara babꞌae e, Betlehem.)
8 Then Israel beheld Iosephs sonnes and sayd, Whose are these?
Yakob olaꞌ basa ma, ana botiꞌ mata na, nita Yusuf ana nara sia naa. Natane Yusuf nae, “We! Seka ana nara ia ra?”
9 And Ioseph sayd vnto his father, They are my sonnes, which God hath giuen mee here. Then he sayd, I pray thee, bring them to me, that I may blesse them:
Yusuf nataa nae, “Anaꞌ ia ra, Lamatualain fee au sia Masir ia.” Yakob olaꞌ nae, “Mete ma taꞌo naa, naa mo se deka ro au, fo au hule-oꞌe Lamatualain fee papala-babꞌanggiꞌ neu se.”
10 (For the eyes of Israel were dimme for age, so that hee coulde not well see) Then he caused them to come to him, and he kissed them and embraced them.
Yakob lasiꞌ ena, de mata nara poke ena. Naa de ana nda nita malole sa. Yusuf no ana nara, deka ro Yakob, de ana holu ma idu se.
11 And Israel sayde vnto Ioseph, I had not thought to haue seene thy face: yet lo, God hath shewed me also thy seede.
Ana olaꞌ no Yusuf nae, “Dꞌoo basa ia, au duꞌa na, nda undaa o nggo sa ena. Te ia naa, Lamatualain tao lenaꞌ naa fai, sambe au o feꞌe ita ana mara.”
12 And Ioseph tooke them away from his knees, and did reuerence downe to the ground.
Basa naa ma, Yusuf naꞌadꞌodꞌooꞌ ana nara mia Yakob, de sendeꞌ lululangga na ma beꞌutee losa rae, mia ama na matan.
13 Then tooke Ioseph them both, Ephraim in his right hand towarde Israels left hand, and Manasseh in his left hand toward Israels right hand, so he brought them vnto him.
Basa boe ma Yusuf fela. Noꞌe nala ana nara de fee se rambariiꞌ deka ro aman. Ana ulu na, Manase, neu Yakob bobꞌoa onan, ma ana ka rua na, Efraim, neu Yakob bobꞌoa diin.
14 But Israel stretched out his right hand, and layde it on Ephraims head, which was the yonger, and his left hande vpon Manassehs head (directing his handes of purpose) for Manasseh was the elder.
Yakob loo lima na fo hule-oꞌe fee se, te ana lali lima ona na neu Efraim langga na, ma lima dii na neu Manase langga na.
15 Also he blessed Ioseph and sayde, The God, before whom my fathers Abraham and Izhak did walke, the God, which hath fed me al my life long vnto this day, blesse thee.
Ana hule-oꞌe noꞌe Lamatualain pala-banggi fee Yusuf nae, “Ho baꞌi Isak ma no ama na Abraham, ruꞌa se tungga Lamatualain hiihii-nanau na. Lamatualain o naꞌaboi au mia feꞌe soru ngga losa oras ia.
16 The Angel, which hath deliuered me from all euill, blesse the children, and let my name be named vpon them, and the name of my fathers Abraham and Izhak, that they may growe as fish into a multitude in the middes of the earth.
Ana mboꞌi au mia basa deꞌulakaꞌ ra. De au o oꞌe fo Ana pala banggi fee anaꞌ ia ra ro tititi-nonosi nara. Boe ma, mete ma ara hule-oe neu Lamatualain, ara afiꞌ liliiꞌ ingga baꞌi Abraham, baꞌi Isak, ma au nara ngga. Fo tititi-nonosi nara boe ramaheta, dadꞌi leo monaeꞌ sia raefafoꞌ ia.”
17 But when Ioseph sawe that his father layde his right hande vpon the head of Ephraim, it displeased him: and he stayed his fathers hand to remooue it from Ephraims head to Manassehs head.
Yusuf nita aman tao lima ona na neu Efraim langga na, de ana toꞌu aman lima na, ma lali nisiꞌ Manase langga na.
18 And Ioseph sayde vnto his father, Not so, my father, for this is the eldest: put thy right hand vpon his head.
Nafadꞌe ama na nae, “Amaꞌ e! Afiꞌ tao taꞌo naa. Te Efraim odꞌiꞌ. Eni nda ana uluꞌ sa. Amaꞌ musi tao lima ona ma sia Manase langga na ata. Huu naa, ana uluꞌ a hak na.”
19 But his father refused, and sayd, I know well, my sonne, I know well: he shalbe also a people, and he shalbe great likewise: but his yonger brother shalbe greater then he, and his seede shall be full of nations.
Te ama na Yakob nda nau sa. Olaꞌ nae, “Ana ngge. Au memaꞌ uhine. Te dei fo Manase dadꞌi manaseliꞌ, ma tititi-nonosi nara o ramaheta losa dadꞌi leo monaeꞌ. Te odꞌi na Efraim, dei fo lenaꞌ e fai. Tititi-nonosi nara, nae na seli losa ara dadꞌi leo hetar manaseliꞌ fai.”
20 So he blessed them that day, and sayde, In thee Israel shall blesse, and say, God make thee as Ephraim and as Manasseh. and he set Ephraim before Manasseh.
De ana nafadꞌe ana karuꞌaꞌ ra nae, “Dei fo mete ma atahori Israꞌel roꞌe Lamatualain pala banggi fee atahori, ara ingga hei ruꞌa nggi nara mara boe. Ara roꞌe rae, ‘Hule-huleꞌ a Lamatualain pala banggi fee nggo, onaꞌ a Ana fee Efraim no Manase.’” No taꞌo naa, Yakob ingga Efraim naran naꞌahuluꞌ aꞌan Manase naran.
21 Then Israel said vnto Ioseph, Behold, I die, and God shall be with you, and bring you againe vnto the land of your fathers.
Boe ma Yakob nafadꞌe Yusuf nae, “Ana ngge! Nda dooꞌ sa, te au mate. Te dei fo Lamatualain tulu-fali hei, ma no baliꞌ hei misiꞌ bei-baꞌiꞌ mara nusa na.
22 Moreouer, I haue giuen vnto thee one portion aboue thy brethren, which I gate out of the hand of the Amorite by my sworde and by my bowe.
Te ia naa, au fee nggo lenaꞌ odꞌi-aꞌa mara. Au fee seluꞌ nggo mbukuꞌ sia rae Kanaꞌan fo dalahulu na au haꞌi mia atahori Amori leleꞌ utati o se.”
