Genesis 43
1 And the famine was sore in the land.
Amma illee beelli biyyattiitti baayʼee hammaatee ture.
2 And it came to pass, when they had completely eaten up the provisions which they had brought out of Egypt, that their father said unto them, Go again, buy us a little food.
Erga isaan midhaan biyya Gibxiitii fidan sana nyaatanii fixanii booddee abbaan isaanii, “Ammas dhaqaatii midhaan xinnoo dabalaa nuu bitaa” jedheen.
3 And Judah said unto him, thus, The man did solemnly protest unto us, saying, Ye shall not see my face, except your brother be with you.
Yihuudaan immoo akkana isaan jedhe; “Namichi sun, ‘Yoo obboleessi keessan isin wajjin dhufe malee isin lammata ija koo hin argitan’ jedhee of eeggannoo cimaa nuu kenne.
4 If thou wilt send our brother with us, we will go down and buy thee food;
Yoo ati obboleessa keenya nu wajjin ergite nu dhaqnee midhaan siif binna.
5 But if thou sendest him not, we will not go down; for the man said unto us, Ye shall not see my face, except your brother be with you.
Sababii namichi sun, ‘Yoo obboleessi keessan isin wajjin dhufe malee isin lammata ija koo hin argitan’ nuun jedheef, yoo ati isa ergite malee nu gad hin buunu.”
6 And Israel said, Wherefore have ye dealt so ill with me, as to tell the man that ye have yet another brother?
Israaʼel immoo, “Isin maaliif akka obboleessa biraa qabdan namichatti himuudhaan rakkina natti fiddan?” jedhee gaafate.
7 And they said, The man inquired particularly concerning us, and our kindred, saying, Is your father yet alive? have ye another brother? and we told him according to the tenor of these words: could we possibly know that he would say, Bring down your brother?
Isaanis akkana jedhanii deebisan; “Namichi waaʼee mataa keenyaatii fi waaʼee maatii keenyaa jabeessee nu gaafate. Innis, ‘Abbaan keessan amma iyyuu jiraa? Obboleessa biraa qabduu?’ jedhee nu gaafate; nu gaaffiidhuma isaa deebifneef. Yoos akka inni, ‘Obboleessa keessan as fidaa’ nuun jedhu akkamiin beekuu dandeenya ree?”
8 And Judah said unto Israel his father, Send the lad with me, and we will arise and go; that we may live, and not die, both we, and thou, as also our little ones.
Yihuudaanis abbaa isaa Israaʼeliin akkana jedhe; “Akka nu, atii fi ijoolleen keenya duʼa jalaa baanee jiraannuuf gurbicha na wajjin ergi; nu kaanee deemnaatii.
9 I will be surety for him; from my hand shalt thou require him: if I bring him not unto thee, and set him before thee, then shall I have sinned against thee all the days.
Ani wabii isaafin taʼa; waaʼee isaas anuma mataa koo gaafachuu ni dandeessa. Yoo ani deebisee isa siif fidee fuula kee dura dhaabuu baadhe, ani bara jireenya koo guutuu fuula kee duratti balleessaa kanatti nan gaafatama.
10 For, if we had not lingered, surely we had now returned the second time.
Utuu turuu baannee silaa yoona yeroo lama dhaqnee deebineerra ture.”
11 And their father Israel said unto them, If it must be so now, do this: take of the best products of the land in your vessels, and carry down to the man a present, a little balm, and a little honey, spices and lotus, pistachio-nuts and almonds;
Kana irratti abbaan isaanii Israaʼel akkana isaaniin jedhe; “Erga akkas taʼee waan kana godhaa; oomisha biyya kanaa filatamaa keessaa kennaa tokko tokko jechuunis haphee dibatan xinnoo ishee, damma xinnaa isaa, urgooftuu fi qumbii xinnoo ishee, ocholoonii fi lawuzii xinnoo ishee geessaatii namichaaf kennaa.
12 And twofold money take in your hand; and the money that was put back in the mouth of your sacks, you must carry back in your hand; peradventure it was an oversight;
Isin waan meetii afaan qalqalloo keessanii keessa kaaʼamee isinii deebiʼe sana deebisuu qabdaniif meetii sana harka lama fudhadhaatii deemaa; meetiin sun dogoggoraan dhufe taʼaatii.
13 Also your brother take along, and arise, go again unto the man.
Obboleessa keessanis fudhadhaatii dafaa gara namichaatti deebiʼaa.
14 And may God the Almighty give you mercy before the man, that he may send away to you your other brother, and Benjamin. And I, if I am to be bereaved, let me be bereaved.
Akka inni obboleessa keessan kaanii fi Beniyaam illee isin wajjin deebisee erguuf Waaqni Waan Hunda Dandaʼu akka namichi garaa isinii laafu haa godhu. Ani yoo ijoollee dhabe illee ijoollee nan dhaba.”
15 And the men took that present; and twofold money they took in their hand, as also Benjamin; and they rose up, and went down to Egypt, and stood before Joseph.
Namoonni sunis kennaawwan sana, meetii sana harka lamaa fi Beniyaaminis fudhatanii ariitiidhaan Gibxitti gad buʼanii fuula Yoosef dura dhadhaabatan.
16 And when Joseph saw Benjamin with them, he said to the superintendent of his house, Bring these men into the house, and slay, and make ready; for with me shall these men dine at noon.
Yoosefis yommuu Beniyaamin isaan biratti argetti hangafa hojjettoota mana isaatiin, “Namoota kana mana kootti geessi; horii tokko qalii nyaata qopheessi; isaan saʼaatii jaʼatti na wajjin nyaatuutii” jedhe.
17 And the man did as Joseph had said; and the man brought the men into Joseph's house.
Namichi sunis akkuma Yoosef isa ajaje godhe; jara sanas mana Yoosefitti geesse.
18 And the men were afraid, because they were brought into Joseph's house: and they said, Because of the money that came back in our sacks at the first time are we brought in; that he may seek occasion against us, and fall upon us, and take us for bondmen, together with our asses.
Namoonni sun yeroo mana Yoosefitti geeffamanitti sodaatanii akkana jedhan; “Nu sababii meetii yeroo jalqabaa deebiʼee afaan qalqalloo keenyaa keessatti argame sanaatiif as fidamne; inni nu rukutee, nu moʼatee, akka garbootaatti nu qabatee harroota keenya fudhachuu barbaada.”
19 And they came near to the man who was appointed over Joseph's house, and they spoke with him at the door of the house.
Kanaafuu jarri gara hangafa hojjettoota Yoosefitti ol baʼanii balbala manaa duratti itti dubbatan.
20 And they said, Pardon, my lord, we came down at the first time to buy food:
Akkanas jedhan; “Yaa gooftaa, nu yeroo jalqabaa midhaan bitachuuf as gad buunee turre.
21 And it came to pass, when we came to the inn, that we opened our sacks, and, behold, every man's money was in the mouth of his sack, our money in its full weight; and we have brought it back in our hand.
Nus yeroo iddoo bullu geenyee qalqalloo keenya bannetti tokkoon tokkoon keenya afaan qalqalloo keenyaa keessatti meetii keenya akkuma jirutti arganne. Kanaafuu meetii sana deebifnee fidnee dhufneerra.
22 And other money have we brought down in our hand to buy food; we know not who hath put our money in our sacks.
Meetii biraas ittiin midhaan bitachuuf fidnee dhufneerra. Eenyu akka meetii keenya qalqalloo keenya keessa nuu kaaʼes hin beeknu.”
23 And he said, Peace be to you, fear not; your God, and the God of your father, hath given you a treasure in your sacks; your money hath come to me. And he brought Simeon out unto them.
Innis deebisee, “Homaa miti; hin sodaatinaa. Waaqni keessan, Waaqni abbaa keessanii qalqalloo keessanitti badhaadhummaa isinii naqeera; meetiin keessan na gaʼee jira” jedheen. Ergasiis Simiʼoonin gara isaaniitti gad baase.
24 And the man brought the men into Joseph's house; and he gave them water, and they washed their feet, and he gave provender to their asses.
Hangafni hojjettootaa sunis jara sana mana Yoosefitti geessee akka isaan miilla isaanii dhiqataniif bishaan kenneef; harroota isaaniitiif immoo okaa kenne.
25 And they made ready the present before Joseph came home at noon; for they had heard that they should eat bread there.
Isaanis achitti akka nyaatan waan dhagaʼaniif dhufaatii Yoosef kan saʼaatii jaʼaatiif kennaa isaanii qopheeffatan.
26 And when Joseph came home, they brought him the present which was in their hand into the house, and bowed themselves to him to the earth.
Yeroo Yoosef manatti galetti isaan kennaa manatti ol galchanii turan sana kennaniif; fuula isaa durattis lafatti gombifamanii harka fuudhan.
27 And he asked them after their welfare, and said, Is your old father well, of whom ye spoke? is he yet alive?
Innis nagaa isaan gaafatee, “Abbaan keessan jaarsi isin waaʼee isaa natti himtan sun akkam? Inni amma iyyuu jiraa?” jedheen.
28 And they answered, Thy servant, our father, is in good health, he is yet alive. And they bowed down their heads, and prostrated themselves.
Jarris, “Tajaajilaan kee abbaan keenya amma iyyuu ni jira; nagumas” jedhanii deebisan. Ulfina isaaf kennuufis gad jedhan.
29 And he lifted up his eyes, and saw his brother Benjamin, his mother's son, and said, Is this your youngest brother, of whom ye spoke unto me? And he said, God be gracious unto thee, my son.
Innis ol ilaalee obboleessa isaa, ilma haadha isaa Beniyaamin argee, “Inni kun obboleessa keessan quxisuu isin waaʼee isaa natti himtan sanaa?” jedhee gaafate. Itti fufees, “Ilma ko, Waaqni si haa eebbisu” jedheen.
30 And Joseph hastened away, for his affection toward his brother became enkindled, and he sought to weep; and he entered into his chamber and wept there.
Yoosef yommuu obboleessa isaa argetti garaan raafamee dafee gad baʼe; booʼuu barbaadees kutaa mana isaa seenee achitti booʼe.
31 And he washed his face, and came out, and refrained himself, and said, Set on the bread.
Ergasiis fuula isaa dhiqatee gad baʼe; of jajjabeessees, “Nyaanni haa dhiʼaatu” jedhe.
32 And they set on for him by himself, and for them by themselves; and for the Egyptians, who did eat with him, by themselves; because the Egyptians may not eat bread with the Hebrews; for that is an abomination unto the Egyptians.
Jarris sababii warri Gibxi Ibroota wajjin hin nyaanneef Yoosefiif kophaatti, obboloota isaatiif kophaatti, warra Gibxi kanneen isa wajjin nyaataniifis kophaatti dhiʼeessan; Ibroota wajjin nyaachuun warra Gibxi biratti jibbisiisaa tureetii.
33 And they sat before him, the first-born according to his prior birth, and the youngest according to his youth; and the men marveled one at the other.
Namoonni sunis akkuma umurii isaaniitti hangafaa jalqabanii hamma quxisuutti fuula isaa dura tataaʼanii dinqifatanii wal ilaalan.
34 And he sent portions unto them from before him; but Benjamin's portion exceeded the portions of all of them fivefold. And they drank, and were merry with him.
Maaddii Yoosef irraas nyaanni qoodameef; qoodni Beniyaam garuu qooda tokko tokko isaaniitiif kenname dachaa shan taʼa ture. Jarris akkasiin Yoosef wajjin dhuganii itti hoʼe.
