Genesis 47

1 Then Joseph went in and told Pharaoh, and said: 'My father and my brethren, and their flocks, and their herds, and all that they have, are come out of the land of Canaan; and, behold, they are in the land of Goshen.'

Yusuf ya tafi yă faɗa wa Fir’auna, “Mahaifina da’yan’uwana, tare da garkunansu da shanunsu da kome da suke da shi, sun zo daga ƙasar Kan’ana, suna kuwa a Goshen yanzu.”

2 And from among his brethren he took five men, and presented them unto Pharaoh.

Sai ya zaɓi mutum biyar daga cikin’yan’uwansa, ya gabatar da su a gaban Fir’auna.

3 And Pharaoh said unto his brethren: 'What is your occupation?' And they said unto Pharaoh: 'Thy servants are shepherds, both we, and our fathers.'

Fir’auna ya tambayi’yan’uwan, “Mece ce sana’arku?” Suka amsa wa Fir’auna suka ce, “Bayinka makiyaya ne, kamar yadda kakanninmu suke.”

4 And they said unto Pharaoh: 'To sojourn in the land are we come; for there is no pasture for thy servants' flocks; for the famine is sore in the land of Canaan. Now therefore, we pray thee, let thy servants dwell in the land of Goshen.'

Suka kuma ce masa, “Mun zo, mu zauna a nan na ɗan lokaci, gama yunwa ta yi tsanani a Kan’ana, dabbobin bayinka kuma ba su da wurin kiwo. Saboda haka yanzu, muna roƙonka, bari bayinka su zauna a Goshen.”

5 And Pharaoh spoke unto Joseph, saying: 'Thy father and thy brethren are come unto thee;

Fir’auna ya ce wa Yusuf, “Mahaifinka da’yan’uwanka sun zo maka,

6 the land of Egypt is before thee; in the best of the land make thy father and thy brethren to dwell; in the land of Goshen let them dwell. And if thou knowest any able men among them, then make them rulers over my cattle.'

ƙasar Masar kuma tana gabanka, ka zaunar da mahaifinka da’yan’uwanka a sashe mafi kyau na ƙasar, bari su zauna a Goshen. Idan kuma ka ga waɗansu a cikinsu da suka fi dacewa, sai ka sa su lura mini da shanuna.”

7 And Joseph brought in Jacob his father, and set him before Pharaoh. And Jacob blessed Pharaoh.

Sa’an nan Yusuf ya shigar da Yaƙub mahaifinsa, ya gabatar da shi a gaban Fir’auna. Bayan Yaƙub ya albarkaci Fir’auna,

8 And Pharaoh said unto Jacob: 'How many are the days of the years of thy life?'

sai Fir’auna ya tambaye shi, “Shekarunka nawa da haihuwa?”

9 And Jacob said unto Pharaoh: 'The days of the years of my sojournings are a hundred and thirty years; few and evil have been the days of the years of my life, and they have not attained unto the days of the years of the life of my fathers in the days of their sojournings.'

Yaƙub kuwa ya ce wa Fir’auna, “Shekarun hijirata, shekaru ɗari da talatin ne. Shekaruna kaɗan ne cike da wahala, ba za a kuwa daidaita su da shekarun hijirar kakannina ba.”

10 And Jacob blessed Pharaoh, and went out from the presence of Pharaoh.

Sai Yaƙub ya albarkaci Fir’auna, ya yi masa bankwana, sa’an nan ya fita.

11 And Joseph placed his father and his brethren, and gave them a possession in the land of Egypt, in the best of the land, in the land of Rameses, as Pharaoh had commanded.

Ta haka Yusuf ya zaunar da mahaifinsa da’yan’uwansa a Masar, ya ba su mallaka a sashe mafi kyau na ƙasar, a yankin nan na Rameses, kamar yadda Fir’auna ya umarta.

12 And Joseph sustained his father, and his brethren, and all his father's household, with bread, according to the want of their little ones.

Yusuf ya kuma tanada wa mahaifinsa da kuma’yan’uwansa da dukan gidan mahaifinsa, abinci bisa ga yawan’ya’yansu.

13 And there was no bread in all the land; for the famine was very sore, so that the land of Egypt and the land of Canaan languished by reason of the famine.

A yanzu, a cikin ƙasar duka, ba abinci, gama yunwa ta yi tsanani ƙwarai, har ƙasar Masar da ƙasar Kan’ana suka shiga matsananciyar wahala!

14 And Joseph gathered up all the money that was found in the land of Egypt, and in the land of Canaan, for the corn which they bought; and Joseph brought the money into Pharaoh's house.

Yusuf ya tattara dukan kuɗaɗen da suke a Masar da Kan’ana don biyan hatsin da suke saya, ya kuwa kawo su a fadan Fir’auna.

15 And when the money was all spent in the land of Egypt, and in the land of Canaan, all the Egyptians came unto Joseph, and said: 'Give us bread; for why should we die in thy presence? for our money faileth.'

Sa’ad da kuɗin mutanen Masar da Kan’ana suka ƙare, dukan Masar ta zo wurin Yusuf ta ce, “Ka ba mu abinci. Me zai sa mu mutu a idanunka? Kuɗinmu duk sun ƙare.”

16 And Joseph said: 'Give your cattle, and I will give you bread for your cattle, if money fail.'

Yusuf ya ce, “To, ku kawo dabbobinku, zan sayar muku da abinci a madadin dabbobinku, tun da kuɗinku ya ƙare.”

17 And they brought their cattle unto Joseph. And Joseph gave them bread in exchange for the horses, and for the flocks, and for the herds, and for the asses; and he fed them with bread in exchange for all their cattle for that year.

Saboda haka suka kawo dabbobinsu wa Yusuf, ya kuma ba su abinci a madadin dawakai, tumaki da awaki, shanu da jakunansu. Ya kuwa ba su abinci a madadin dabbobinsu, a wannan shekara.

18 And when that year was ended, they came unto him the second year, and said unto him: 'We will not hide from my lord, how that our money is all spent; and the herds of cattle are my lord's; there is nought left in the sight of my lord, but our bodies, and our lands.

Sa’ad da wannan shekara ta ƙare, sai suka zo wurinsa a shekara ta biye suka ce, “Ba za mu ɓoye maka ba ranka yă daɗe, kuɗinmu sun ƙare, dabbobinmu kuma sun zama naka. Ranka yă daɗe, in ban da jikunanmu da gonakinmu, ba abin da ya rage mana.

19 Wherefore should we die before thine eyes, both we and our land? buy us and our land for bread, and we and our land will be bondmen unto Pharaoh; and give us seed, that we may live, and not die, and that the land be not desolate.'

Kada ka bar mu mu mutu, ka yi wata dabara! Kada ka bari mu rasa gonakinmu. Ka musaye mu da abinci, mu da gonakinmu. Mu kuwa za mu zama bayin Fir’auna. Ka ba mu iri don mu rayu, kada mu mutu, don kuma kada gonakin ƙasarmu su zama kango.”

20 So Joseph bought all the land of Egypt for Pharaoh; for the Egyptians sold every man his field, because the famine was sore upon them; and the land became Pharaoh's.

Ta haka Yusuf ya saya wa Fir’auna ƙasar Masar duka, gama Masarawa duka sun sayar da gonakinsu, saboda yunwa ta tsananta musu. Ƙasar ta zama mallakar Fir’auna.

21 And as for the people, he removed them city by city, from one end of the border of Egypt even to the other end thereof.

Yusuf kuwa ya mai da mutanen bayi, daga wannan iyakar Masar zuwa wancan.

22 Only the land of the priests bought he not, for the priests had a portion from Pharaoh, and did eat their portion which Pharaoh gave them; wherefore they sold not their land.

Amma bai sayi gonakin firistoci ba, gama suna karɓa rabo daga Fir’auna ne, suna kuma da isashen abinci daga rabon da Fir’auna yake ba su. Dalilin ke nan da ba su sayar da gonakinsu ba.

23 Then Joseph said unto the people: 'Behold, I have bought you this day and your land for Pharaoh. Lo, here is seed for you, and ye shall sow the land.

Yusuf ya ce wa mutane, “Yanzu da na saye ku da kuma gonakinku a yau wa Fir’auna, ga iri don ku shuka a gonaki.

24 And it shall come to pass at the ingatherings, that ye shall give a fifth unto Pharaoh, and four parts shall be your own, for seed of the field, and for your food, and for them of your households, and for food for your little ones.'

Amma sa’ad da hatsi suka nuna, za ku ba da kashi ɗaya bisa biyar ga Fir’auna. Sauran kashi huɗu bisa biyar kuma ku riƙe a matsayin iri don gonaki da kuma abinci wa kanku da gidajenku da kuma’ya’yanku.”

25 And they said: 'Thou hast saved our lives. Let us find favour in the sight of my lord, and we will be Pharaoh's bondmen.'

Suka ce, “Ka ceci rayukanmu, in ya gamshe ka, ranka yă daɗe, za mu zama bayin Fir’auna.”

26 And Joseph made it a statute concerning the land of Egypt unto this day, that Pharaoh should have the fifth; only the land of the priests alone became not Pharaoh's.

Ta haka Yusuf ya kafa wannan ya zama doka game da ƙasa a Masar, har yă zuwa yau cewa kashi ɗaya bisa biyar na amfani gona ya zama na Fir’auna. Gonakin firistoci ne kaɗai ba su zama na Fir’auna ba.

27 And Israel dwelt in the land of Egypt, in the land of Goshen; and they got them possessions therein, and were fruitful, and multiplied exceedingly.

To, Isra’ilawa suka zauna a Masar a yankin Goshen. Suka mallaki filaye a can, suka riɓaɓɓanya suka ƙaru ƙwarai.

28 And Jacob lived in the land of Egypt seventeen years; so the days of Jacob, the years of his life, were a hundred forty and seven years.

Yaƙub ya yi zama a Masar shekaru goma sha bakwai, yawan shekarunsa duka sun zama ɗari da arba’in da bakwai.

29 And the time drew near that Israel must die; and he called his son Joseph, and said unto him: 'If now I have found favour in thy sight, put, I pray thee, thy hand under my thigh, and deal kindly and truly with me; bury me not, I pray thee, in Egypt.

Sa’ad da lokaci ya gabato da Isra’ila zai mutu, sai ya kira ɗansa Yusuf, ya ce masa, “Ka yi mini wannan alheri, ka sa hannunka ƙarƙashin cinyar ƙafata, ka yi mini alkawari saboda ina roƙonka kaɗa ka bizne ni a Masar,

30 But when I sleep with my fathers, thou shalt carry me out of Egypt, and bury me in their burying-place.' And he said: 'I will do as thou hast said.'

amma sa’ad da na huta da kakannina, ka ɗauke ni, ka fid da ni daga Masar, ka binne ni a inda aka binne su.” Yusuf ya ce, “Zan yi yadda ka faɗa.”

31 And he said: 'Swear unto me.' And he swore unto him. And Israel bowed down upon the bed's head.

Yaƙub ya ce, “Ka rantse mini.” Sai Yusuf ya rantse masa, Isra’ila kuwa ya yi godiya ga Allah yayinda ya jingina a kan sandansa.
