Genesis 43
1 And the famine [is] severe in the land;
Báyìí, ìyàn náà sì mú gidigidi ní ilẹ̀ náà.
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.”
Nígbà tí wọ́n sì ti jẹ gbogbo ọkà tí wọ́n rà ní Ejibiti tan, baba wọn wí fún wọn pé, “Ẹ padà lọ ra oúnjẹ díẹ̀ si wá fún wa.”
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;
Ṣùgbọ́n Juda wí fún un pé, “Ọkùnrin náà tẹnumọ́ ọn nínú ìkìlọ̀ rẹ̀ fún wa pé, ‘Ẹ̀yin kì yóò rí ojúrere mi mọ́, àyàfi bí arákùnrin yín bá bá a yín wá’.
4 if you are sending our brother with us, we go down, and buy for you food,
Tí ìwọ yóò bá rán Benjamini arákùnrin wa lọ pẹ̀lú wa, a ó lọ ra oúnjẹ wá fún ọ.
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.”
Ṣùgbọ́n bí ìwọ kò bá ni jẹ́ kí ó bá wa lọ, àwa kì yóò lọ, nítorí ọkùnrin náà sọ fún wa pé, ‘Ẹ̀yin kì yóò rí ojúrere mi mọ́ àyàfi bí arákùnrin yín bá bá a yín wá.’”
6 And Israel says, “Why did you do evil to me, by declaring to the man that you had yet a brother?”
Israẹli béèrè pé, “Èéṣe tí ẹ fi kó ìdààmú yìí bá mi nípa sísọ fún ọkùnrin náà wí pé ẹ ní arákùnrin mìíràn?”
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?”
Wọ́n dáhùn pé, “Ọkùnrin náà fi pẹ̀lẹ́pẹ̀lẹ́ wádìí lọ́wọ́ wa nípa ìdílé wa àti àwa fúnra wa. Ó béèrè pé, ‘Ṣe baba yín ṣì wà láààyè? Ǹjẹ́ ẹ tún ní arákùnrin mìíràn?’ A kàn dáhùn ìbéèrè rẹ̀ ni. Báwo ni a ṣe le mọ̀ pé yóò wí pé, ‘Ẹ mú arákùnrin yín wá’?”
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.
Juda sì wí fún Israẹli baba rẹ̀, “Jẹ́ kí ọmọkùnrin náà lọ pẹ̀lú mi, a ó sì lọ ní kíákíá, kí àwa àti ìwọ àti àwọn ọmọ wa le yè, kí a má sì kú.
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;
Èmi fúnra mi yóò ṣe onídùúró fún un, èmi ni kí o gbà pé o fi lé lọ́wọ́. Bí n kò bá sì mú un padà tọ̀ ọ́ wá, jẹ́ kí ẹ̀bi rẹ̀ kí ó jẹ́ tèmi ní gbogbo ọjọ́ ayé mi níwájú rẹ.
10 for if we had not lingered, surely now we had returned these two times.”
Bí ó bá ṣe pé a kò fi falẹ̀ ni, àwa ìbá ti lọ, à bá sì ti padà ní ìgbà méjì ọ̀tọ̀ọ̀tọ̀.”
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;
Nígbà náà ni Israẹli baba wọn wí fún wọn, “Bí ó bá rí bẹ́ẹ̀, èyí ni kí ẹ ṣe, ẹ mú àwọn ohun dáradára ilẹ̀ yìí lọ́wọ́ lọ bí ẹ̀bùn fún ọkùnrin náà—ìkunra díẹ̀, oyin díẹ̀, tùràrí àti òjìá, èso pisitakio àti èso almondi
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.

13 And take your brother, and rise, return to the man;
Ẹ mú arákùnrin yín lọ́wọ́ pẹ̀lú ki ẹ sì tọ arákùnrin náà lọ.
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.”
Kí Ọlọ́run alágbára jẹ́ kí ẹ rí àánú gbà lọ́dọ̀ ọkùnrin náà kí ó ba à le jẹ́ kí arákùnrin yín tí ó wà lọ́hùn ún àti Benjamini padà wá pẹ̀lú yín. Ní tèmi, bí mo bá pàdánù àwọn ọmọ mi, n ó ṣọ̀fọ̀ wọn náà ni.”
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;
Nítorí náà wọ́n mú àwọn ẹ̀bùn náà àti owó ìlọ́po méjì àti Benjamini, wọ́n sì yára lọ sí ilẹ̀ Ejibiti, wọ́n sì fi ara wọn hàn níwájú Josẹfu.
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.”
Nígbà tí Josẹfu rí Benjamini pẹ̀lú wọn, ó sọ fún ìránṣẹ́ ilé rẹ̀, “Mú àwọn ọkùnrin wọ̀nyí lọ sí ilé mi, pa ẹran kí o sì ṣe àsè; wọn ó jẹun ọ̀sán pẹ̀lú mi.”
17 And the man does as Joseph has said, and the man brings in the men into the house of Joseph,
Ọkùnrin náà sì ṣe bí Josẹfu ti wí fún un, ó sì mú àwọn ọkùnrin náà lọ sí ilé Josẹfu.
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.”
Ẹ̀rù sì ba àwọn ọkùnrin náà nígbà tí wọ́n mú wọn lọ sí ilé Josẹfu. Wọ́n rò ó pé, “A mú wa wá sí ìhín nítorí owó tí a fi sí inú àpò wa ní ìgbà àkọ́kọ́. Ó fẹ́ bá wa jà, kí ó mú wa lẹ́rú kí ó sì gba àwọn kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ wa.”
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,
Nítorí náà wọ́n lọ bá ìránṣẹ́ Josẹfu, wọ́n sì ba sọ̀rọ̀ ní ẹnu-ọ̀nà àbáwọlé ilé náà.
20 and say, “O my lord, we really come down at the commencement to buy food;
Wọ́n wí pé, “Jọ̀wọ́ ọ̀gá, ní òtítọ́ ni àwa ti sọ̀kalẹ̀ síyìn-ín láti wá ra oúnjẹ ní ìṣáájú.
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;
Ṣùgbọ́n níbi tí a ti dúró ní ọ̀nà láti sùn ní alẹ́, nígbà tí a tú àpò oúnjẹ wa, ẹnìkọ̀ọ̀kan wa bá owó oúnjẹ tirẹ̀ tí ó rà lẹ́nu àpò láì lé, láì dín. Nítorí náà òun nìyí, a ti mu un padà wá pẹ̀lú wa.
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.”
A sì tún mú owó mìíràn lọ́wọ́ láti fi ra oúnjẹ. A ò mọ ẹni tí ó fi owó wa sí ẹnu àpò.”
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.
Ó sì wí fún wọn pé, “Àlàáfíà ni fún yín, ẹ má bẹ̀rù, Ọlọ́run yín, àní Ọlọ́run baba yín ni ó fi ìṣúra sí inú àpò yín; mo rí owó tí ẹ san gbà.” Nígbà náà ni ó mú Simeoni jáde tọ̀ wọ́n wá.
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,
Ìránṣẹ́ náà mú àwọn ọkùnrin náà lọ sí ilé Josẹfu, ó fún wọn ní omi láti fi wẹ ẹsẹ̀ wọn nu, ó sì fún àwọn kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ wọn lóúnjẹ pẹ̀lú.
25 and they prepare the present until the coming of Joseph at noon, for they have heard that there they eat bread.
Wọ́n pèsè ẹ̀bùn wọn sílẹ̀ fún Josẹfu di ọ̀sán nígbà tí yóò dé, nítorí wọ́n ti gbọ́ pé ibẹ̀ ni àwọn yóò ti jẹun ọ̀sán.
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;
Nígbà tí Josẹfu dé sí ilé, wọ́n kó àwọn ẹ̀bùn tí wọ́n ti mú wá fún un, wọ́n sì wólẹ̀ níwájú rẹ̀.
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?”
Ó béèrè àlàáfíà wọn, ó sì wí pé, “Ṣé àlàáfíà ni baba yín wà, baba arúgbó tí ẹ sọ̀rọ̀ rẹ̀ fún mi, ṣé ó sì wà láààyè?”
28 And they say, “Your servant our father [is] well, he is yet alive”; and they bow, and pay respect.
Wọ́n dáhùn pé, “Ìránṣẹ́ rẹ, baba wa sì wà láààyè, àlàáfíà sì ni ó wà pẹ̀lú.” Wọn sì tẹríba láti bọ̀wọ̀ fún un.
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.”
Bí ó ti wò yíká tí ó sì rí Benjamini àbúrò rẹ̀, tí í ṣe ọmọ ìyá rẹ̀ gan an. Ó béèrè lọ́wọ́ wọn pé, “Ṣe àbúrò yín tí ó jẹ́ àbíkẹ́yìn tí ẹ sọ fún mi nípa rẹ̀ nìyìí?” Ó sì tún wí pe, “Kí Ọlọ́run kí ó ṣàánú fún ọ, ọmọ mi.”
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;
Ọkàn rẹ̀ sì fà sí i gidigidi nígbà tí ó rí arákùnrin rẹ̀, nítorí náà Josẹfu yára jáde láti wá ibi tí ó ti le sọkún. Ó lọ sí iyàrá rẹ̀, ó sì sọkún níbẹ̀.
31 and he washes his face, and goes out, and refrains himself, and says, “Place bread.”
Lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí ó ti bọ́jú tan, ó jáde wá, ó ṣe ọkàn ọkùnrin, ó sì wí fún wọn pé, kí wọ́n gbé oúnjẹ wá kí wọ́n le è jẹun.
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.
Wọ́n gbé oúnjẹ tirẹ̀ fún un lọ́tọ̀, àti fún àwọn ará Ejibiti tí ó wá ba jẹun náà lọ́tọ̀, nítorí ará Ejibiti kò le bá ará Heberu jẹun nítorí ìríra pátápátá ló jẹ́ fún àwọn Ejibiti.
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;
A mú àwọn ọkùnrin náà jókòó lẹ́gbẹ̀ẹ́ rẹ̀, bí wọ́n ṣe dàgbà sí, láti orí ẹ̀gbọ́n pátápátá dé orí èyí tí ó kéré pátápátá, wọ́n sì ń wo ara wọn tìyanu tìyanu.
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.
A sì bu oúnjẹ fún wọn láti orí tábìlì Josẹfu. Oúnjẹ Benjamini sì tó ìlọ́po márùn-ún ti àwọn tókù. Wọ́n ń jẹ, wọ́n sì ń mu lọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀ láìsí ìdíwọ́.
