Genesis 48
1 And it came to pass after these things, that it was reported to Joseph, Behold, your father is ill; and, having taken his two sons, Manasse and Ephraim, he came to Jacob.
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 And it was reported to Jacob, saying, Behold, your son Joseph comes to you; and Israel having strengthened himself, sat upon the bed.
Yakob rena Yusuf se rema ma, ana naꞌamamateꞌ ao na endoꞌ sia koi.
3 And Jacob said to Joseph, My God appeared to me in Luza, in the land of Chanaan, 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 said to me, Behold, I will increase you, and multiply you, and will make of you multitudes of nations; and I will give this land to you, and to your seed after you, for an everlasting 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 Now then your two sons, who were born to you in the land of Egypt, before I came to you into Egypt, are mine; Ephraim and Manasse, as Ruben and Symeon they shall be 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 And the children which you shall beget hereafter, shall be in the name of their brethren; they shall be named after their inheritances.
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 And as for me, when I came out of Mesopotamia of Syria, Rachel, your mother, died in the land of Chanaan, as I drew night to the horse-course of Chabratha of the land [of Chanaan], so as to come to Ephratha; and I buried her in the road of the course; this is Bethlehem.
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 And when Israel saw the sons of Joseph, he said, Who are these to you?
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 Joseph said to his father, They are my sons, whom God gave me here; and Jacob said, Bring me them, that I may bless 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 Now the eyes of Israel were dim through age, and he could not see; and he brought them near 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 said to Joseph, Behold, I have not been deprived of [seeing] your face, and behold! God has showed me your seed also.
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 Joseph brought them out from [between] his knees, and they did reverence to him, with their face 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 And Joseph took his two sons, both Ephraim in his right hand, but on the left of Israel, and Manasse on his left hand, but on the right of Israel, and brought them near to 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 having stretched out his right hand, laid it on the head of Ephraim, and he was the younger; and his left hand on the head of Manasse, [guiding] his hands crosswise.
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 And he blessed them and said, The God in whose sight my fathers were well pleasing, [even] Abraam and Isaac, the God who continues to feed me from my youth until this day;
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 who delivers me from all evils, bless these boys, and my name shall be called upon them, and the name of my fathers, Abraam and Isaac; and let them be increased to a great multitude on 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 And Joseph having seen that his father put his right hand on the head of Ephraim—it seemed grievous to him; and Joseph took hold of the hand of his father, to remove it from the head of Ephraim to the head of Manasse.
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 Joseph said to his father, Not so, father; for this is the firstborn; lay your right-hand upon 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 And he would not, but said, I know it, son, I know it; he also shall be a people, and he shall be exalted, but his younger brother shall be greater than he, and his seed shall become a multitude 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 And he blessed them in that day, saying, In you shall Israel be blessed, saying, God make you as Ephraim and Manasse; and he set Ephraim before Manasse.
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 And Israel said to Joseph, Behold, I die; and God shall be with you, and restore you to 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 And I give to you Sicima, a select portion above your brethren, which I took out of the hand of the Amorites with my sword and bow.
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.”
