Genesis 43
1 And the famine [is] severe in the land;
Koro kech ne pod ger ahinya e piny.
2 and it comes to pass, when they have finished eating the grain which they brought from Egypt, that their father says to them, “Return, buy for us a little food.”
Bangʼ kane gisechamo cham duto mane gia godo Misri, wuon-gi nowachonegi niya, “Doguru mondo udhi ungʼiewnwae chiemo moko.”
3 And Judah speaks to him, saying, “The man protesting protested to us, saying, You do not see my face without your brother [being] with you;
To Juda nowachone niya, “Ngʼat cha nosiemowa matek ni, ‘Ok nachak awuo kodu ka ok ubiro gi owadu.’
4 if you are sending our brother with us, we go down, and buy for you food,
Kinyalo yie mondo Benjamin odhi kodwa, to wabiro dhi mondo wadhi warund cham.
5 and if you are not sending—we do not go down, for the man said to us, You do not see my face without your brother [being] with you.”
To ka ok iore, to ok wabi dhi, nikech ngʼatno nowachonwa ni, ‘Ok abi chak awuo kodu ka ok ubiro gi owadu.’”
6 And Israel says, “Why did you do evil to me, by declaring to the man that you had yet a brother?”
Israel nopenjogi niya, “Angʼo ma omiyo ukelona chandruogni ka unyiso ngʼatno ni un kod owadu moro?”
7 And they say, “The man asked diligently concerning us, and concerning our family, saying, Is your father yet alive? Have you a brother? And we declare to him according to the tenor of these things; do we certainly know that he will say, Bring down your brother?”
To negidwoke niya, “Ngʼatno nopenjowa ahinya kuomwa wawegi kendo kuom joodwa. Nopenjowa ni, ‘Bende wuonu pod ngima? Bende un gi owadu machielo?’ Ne wadwoke mana gik mane openjowa. Ere kaka dine wangʼe ni obiro wachonwa ni, ‘Dhi ukel owaduno ka’?”
8 And Judah says to his father Israel, “Send the youth with me, and we arise, and go, and live, and do not die, both we, and you, and our infants.
Eka Juda nowacho ne Israel wuon mare niya, “We wawuogi kendo adhi gi wuowini, mondo omi wan kod in kod nyithindwa kik kech negwa.
9 I am guarantor [for] him, from my hand you require him; if I have not brought him to you, and set him before you—then I have sinned against you all the days;
An awuon asingora ni abiro rite kendo en e lweta. Ka ok aduoge iri ka, to ikwana kaka jaketho e ndalo duto mag ngimana.
10 for if we had not lingered, surely now we had returned these two times.”
Ka debed ni ok waseketho kinde, dine wasedhi ma waduogo diriyo.”
11 And their father Israel says to them, “If so, now, do this: take of the praised thing of the land in your vessels, and take down to the man a present, a little balm, and a little honey, spices and myrrh, nuts and almonds;
Eka Israel wuon-gi nowachonegi niya, “Ka en ni nyaka obed kamano, to timuru kama. Keturu gik moko mabeyo mag pinyni e ogundeu kendo utergi ne ngʼatno kaka mich; ma gin yiende moko, gi mor kich gi gik mangʼwe ngʼar gi mane-mane kod oyungu.
12 and double money take in your hand, even the money which is brought back in the mouth of your bags, you take back in your hand, it may be it [is] an oversight.
Kawuru pesa moromo rundo nyadiriyo, nikech nyaka uduoki pesa mane oket ei ogundeu. Nyalo bedo ni mano nobothnigi.
13 And take your brother, and rise, return to the man;
Kawuru owadu kendo udhi ir ngʼatno piyo.
14 and God Almighty give to you mercies before the man, so that he has sent to you your other brother and Benjamin; and I, when I am bereaved—I am bereaved.”
Kendo mad Nyasaye Maratego timnu ngʼwono e nyim ngʼatno mondo mi owe owadu kod Benjamin mondo oduog kodu. To an to kochuno ni nyaka abed mokuyo to abiro kuyo.”
15 And the men take this present, double money also they have taken in their hand, and Benjamin; and they rise, and go down to Egypt, and stand before Joseph;
Kuom mano jogo nokawo mich kod pesa moromo rundo nyadiriyo, kod Benjamin bende. Negireto mapiyo nono ka gidhi Misri kendo negidhi ir Josef.
16 and Joseph sees Benjamin with them and says to him who [is] over his house, “Bring the men into the house, and slaughter an animal, and make ready, for the men eat with me at noon.”
Kane Josef oneno Benjamin kani kodgi, nowacho ne jarit ode niya, “Kaw jogi iter oda, yangʼnegi chiayo kendo ilosnegi chiemo mondo gichiem koda sa auchiel.”
17 And the man does as Joseph has said, and the man brings in the men into the house of Joseph,
Jarit notimo mana kaka Josef nokone kendo notero jogo nyaka e od Josef.
18 and the men are afraid because they have been brought into the house of Joseph, and they say, “For the matter of the money which was put back in our bags at the commencement are we brought in—to roll himself on us, and to throw himself on us, and to take us for servants—our donkeys also.”
To jogo ne luoro omako kane otergi e od Josef. Negiparo niya, “Osekelwa ka nikech pesa ma wayudo koduok e ogundewa, chiengʼ mane wabiro kae mokwongo. Odwaro ni mondo oichwa kendo olowa mondo mi oketwa wasumbini, bangʼe okaw pundewa.”
19 And they come near to the man who [is] over the house of Joseph, and speak to him at the opening of the house,
Kuom mano negidhi ir jarit od Josef kendo giwuoyo kode e dhoot.
20 and say, “O my lord, we really come down at the commencement to buy food;
Negiwachone niya, “Jaduongʼ ne wabiro ka mokwongo ngʼiewo cham.
21 and it comes to pass, when we have come to the lodging-place, and open our bags, that behold, each one’s money [is] in the mouth of his bag, our money in its weight, and we bring it back in our hand;
To kamane wabuoroe gotieno ne wagonyo gundewa kendo ngʼato ka ngʼato kuomwa noyudo pesane mana kaka ne wabiro kodgi e dho ogunde. Kuom mano waseduogogi.
22 and other money have we brought down in our hand to buy food; we have not known who put our money in our bags.”
Bende wasebiro gi pesa moko mondo wangʼiew godo chiemo. Ok wangʼeyo ngʼama noketo pesa e gundewa.”
23 And he says, “Peace to you, do not fear: your God and the God of your father has given to you hidden treasure in your bags, your money came to me”; and he brings out Simeon to them.
Nowacho niya, “Mano ber. Kik uluor. Nyasaye ma Nyasach wuonu, osedwokonu pesau e gundeu; to pesa mane ungʼiewgo cham ira, an godo.” Eka ne okelonegi Simeon.
24 And the man brings in the men into Joseph’s house, and gives water, and they wash their feet; and he gives provender for their donkeys,
Jarit notero jogo e od Josef, nomiyogi pi mondo giluokgo tiendgi kendo pundegi bende nomiyo chiemo.
25 and they prepare the present until the coming of Joseph at noon, for they have heard that there they eat bread.
Negiiko mich mane gibiro godo mondo gi dhi gimi Josef sa auchiel, nikech negisewinjo ni gidhi chiemo kode.
26 And Joseph comes into the house, and they bring to him the present which [is] in their hand, into the house, and bow themselves to him, to the earth;
Kane Josef odwogo dala, negimiye mich mane gikelone, kendo negikulore e nyime nyaka e lowo.
27 and he asks of them of peace and says, “Is your father well? The aged man of whom you have spoken, is he yet alive?”
Josef nopenjogi kaka gidhi eka nowachonegi niya, “Jaduongʼ ma wuonu mane uwachona wach kuome ni nade? Bende pod ongima?”
28 And they say, “Your servant our father [is] well, he is yet alive”; and they bow, and pay respect.
Negidwoke niya, “Jatichni ma wuonwa pod ngima kendo odhi maber.” Kendo negikulorene ka gimiyogo duongʼ.
29 And he lifts up his eyes and sees his brother Benjamin, his mother’s son, and says, “Is this your young brother, of whom you have spoken to me?” And he says, “God favor you, my son.”
Kane orango ma oneno owadgi Benjamin, wuod min-gi hie, nopenjogi niya, “Ma e owadu ma chogo, mane uwachona wachne?” Kendo nomedo wacho niya, “Nyasaye mad gwedhi wuoda.”
30 And Joseph hurries, for his bowels have been moved for his brother, and he seeks to weep, and enters the inner chamber, and weeps there;
Ne mirima omake ka oneno Benjamin owadgi. Josef noreto kadhi oko kendo orango kamane onyalo pondoe ka oywak. Nodonjo e kachiende kendo ne oywak kuno.
31 and he washes his face, and goes out, and refrains himself, and says, “Place bread.”
Bangʼ kane oseluoko wangʼe, noduogo kendo ka otemo oore nowacho niya, “Chiemuru.”
32 And they place for him by himself, and for them by themselves, and for the Egyptians who are eating with him by themselves: for the Egyptians are unable to eat bread with the Hebrews, for it [is] an abomination to the Egyptians.
Negitokone chiembe kende, owetene kendgi, kendo jo-Misri mane chiemo kode bende nomi chiembgi kendgi, nikech jo-Misri ne ok nyal chiemo gi jo-Hibrania, nimar mano en gima kwero ne jo-Misri.
33 And they sit before him, the firstborn according to his birthright, and the young one according to his youth, and the men wonder one at another;
Owete Josef nobet e mesa e nyime kaluwore kaka nywolgi nobet, chakre wuowi maduongʼ nyaka wuowi matin kendo e kinde mane gibet kamano chunygi noparore.
34 and he lifts up gifts from before him to them, and the gift of Benjamin is five hands more than the gifts of all of them; and they drink, indeed, they drink abundantly with him.
Kane omigi chiemo koa e mesa mar Josef, chiemb Benjamin ne ngʼeny moloyo mar ngʼato angʼata nyadibich. Kuom mano negichiemo kendo gimetho ka gin thuolo kode.
