< Genesis 44 >

1 Then he instructed the manager of his house, saying, "Fill the men's sacks with as much food as they can carry, and put each man's silver in the mouth of his sack.
Joseph el sapkin nu sin mwet kulansap se su taran ma nukewa in lohm sel ah, ac fahk, “Nwakla pak lun mwet inge ke mwe mongo nwe ke na arulana sessesla, ac likiya mani lun kais sie oelucng in pak lal an.
2 Put my cup, the silver cup, in the sack's mouth of the youngest, along with the silver for his grain." So he did according to the word that Joseph had told him.
Filiya cup silver se luk ah oelucng in pak lun tamulel fusr sac, wi mani in wheat lal an.” Ac mwet sac orala oana ke fwackyang nu sel.
3 As soon as the morning dawned, the men were sent off along with their donkeys.
Toangna in lotu tok ah supweyukla tamulel ekasr ah wi donkey natulos.
4 When they were far from the city, Joseph said to his manager, "Up, go after the men, and when you overtake them, ask them, 'Why have you repaid evil for good?
Ke elos som ac srakna fototo nu ke siti uh, na Joseph el fahk nu sin mwet kulansap se lal ah, “Sulaklak fahsrot tukun mwet ekasr ah. Kom fin sonoltal, kom siyuk seltal, ‘Efu ku komtal oru ma koluk sang moli ma wo?
5 Why have you stolen my silver cup? Isn't it from this that my lord drinks and by which he indeed uses for divination? You have done evil in doing this.'"
Efu ku komtal pisrala cup silver se lun mwet kacto se luk ah? Cup se ingan ma el nimnim kac ac orekmakin nu ke susfa lal ah. Ma na koluk se pa komtal orala inge?’”
6 And he caught up with them and spoke these words to them.
Ke mwet kulansap sac sonolos, el fahkang kas inge nu selos.
7 But they said to him, "Why does my lord speak such words as these? Far be it from your servants that they should do such a thing.
Elos topkol ac fahk, “Leum se, mea kom fahk ingan? Kut tia etu lah mea kom fahk an. Kut fulahk lah wanginna kain ouiya ingan kut oru.
8 Look, the money that we found in the mouths of our sacks we brought back to you from the land of Canaan. How then could we steal silver or gold from your lord's house?
Kom etu na lah kut folokonma mani ma kut tuh konauk in pak lasr ah oe Canaan me nu sum. Na efu ku kut in pisre silver ku gold liki in lohm sin mwet kacto lom?
9 With whomever of your servants it is found, he must die, and we also will be my lord's slaves."
Leum se, fin koneyukyak ma ingan sin sie sesr, lela in anwuki mwet sac, ac kut saya uh ac fah mwet kohs lom.”
10 And he said, "Very well, then, it will be as you say. The one with whom it is found will be my slave, but you will be blameless."
Ac mwet sac fahk, “Nga insese nu kac, tusruktu mwet se na ma srukak cup sac ac fah mwet kohs luk, ac kowos su saya an sukosok in som.”
11 Then they hurried, and each man lowered his sack to the ground, and each man opened his sack.
Ouinge elos sulaklak na sruhkya pak lalos uh, ac kais sie selos ikasla pak lal.
12 And he searched, beginning with the oldest, and ending at the youngest. And the cup was found in Benjamin's sack.
Mwet kulansap se lal Joseph ah iluhsya pak lalos inge, mutawauk ke el su matu nu ke el su fusr, ac cup sac koneoyukyak in pak lal Benjamin.
13 Then they tore their clothes, and each man loaded his donkey and returned to the city.
Tamulel ekasr ah seseya nuknuk lalos ke asor, srakang pak lalos nu fin donkey natulos, ac folokla nu in siti ah.
14 So Judah and his brothers came to Joseph's house, and he was still there, and they fell to the ground before him.
Ke Judah ac mwet lel elos tuku nu lom sel Joseph, Joseph el srakna oasr we. Elos pasrla ye mutal nwe infohk uh,
15 And Joseph said to them, "What is this deed that you have done? Didn't you know that a man like me can indeed practice divination?"
ac Joseph el fahk, “Mea komtal oru angan an? Ya komtal nikin lah kain mwet se nga uh ku in konauk ma komtal oru uh ke susfa?”
16 Then Judah said, "What can we say to my lord? What can we speak? And how can we clear ourselves? God has uncovered the guilt of your servants. Look, we are my lord's slaves, both we, and the one in whose possession the cup was found."
Na Judah el fahk, “Leum se, mea kut ku in fahk nu sum? Kas fuka kut ac fahk in aksuwosye kut? Kut ac tulekutla fuka? God El akkalemyela ma koluk lasr. Kut nukewa inge ac fah mwet kohs lom, ac tia el na su koneyukyak cup sac yoro.”
17 But he said, "Far be it from me that I should do so. The man in whose possession the cup was found, he will be my slave. But as for you, go up to your father in peace."
Joseph el fahk, “Mo na mo! Nga tia ku in oru angan! Mwet se na ma cup sac oan yoro an pa ac mwet kohs luk uh. Ac komtal saya an ku in folokla nu yurin papa tomomtal in misla.”
18 Then Judah approached him, and said, "My lord, please allow your servant to speak a word in the ears of my lord, and do not become angry with your servant, for you are like Pharaoh himself.
Judah el kalukyang nu yorol Joseph ac fahk, “Leum luk, nunak munas, lela nu sik in fahk nunak luk. Nimet kasrkusrak sik. Kom oapana tokosra.
19 My lord asked his servants, saying, 'Do you have a father or a brother?'
Leum luk, kom tuh kusen siyuk nu sesr meet ac fahk, ‘Ku oasr papa tomomtal, ku tamulel lomtal saya?’
20 And we said to my lord, 'We have a father, an old man, and a child born when he was old, a little one, and his brother is dead, and he is his mother's only child, and his father loves him.'
Ac kut topuk ac fahk, ‘Aok, oasr papa tumasr su arulana matuoh, ac tamulel fusr se su isusyang nu sel ke el matu. Tamulel lun tulik fusr se inge misa, ac tulik se inge mukena srakna moul sin tulik nutin nina kial. Papa tumal ah arulana nunkal yohk.’
21 Then you said to your servants, 'Bring him down to me, so that I can see him myself.'
Leum luk, kom tuh fahk nu sesr mu kut in usalu nu inge kom in tuh liyal.
22 And we said to my lord, 'The boy can't leave his father: for if he should leave his father, his father would die.'
Ac kut topuk mu tulik sac tia ku in som liki ye mutun papa tumal ah. El fin som lukel, papa sac ku na in misa.
23 But you said to your servants, 'Unless your youngest brother comes down with you, you will not see my face again.'
Na kom tuh fahk, ‘Komtal tia ku in sifilpa utyak nu ye mutuk tamulel fusr se lomtal an fin tia wi komtal.’
24 And it happened when we came up to your servant my father, we told him the words of my lord.
“Ke kut tuh folokla nu yurin papa tumasr ah, kut fahkang nu sel ma kom fahk ah.
25 But our father said, 'Go again, buy us a little food.'
Na el fahk mu kut in sifilpa foloko moli kutu mongo.
26 We said, 'We can't go down. If our youngest brother is with us, then we will go down, for we cannot see the man's face unless our youngest brother is with us.'
Ac kut topkol ac fahk, ‘Kut tia ku in som, mweyen kut ac tuh kofla utyak nu ye mutun mwet sac tamulel fusr se lasr inge fin tia wi kut. El fin twe wi kut, kut fah ku in som.’
27 Then your servant my father said to us, 'You know that my wife bore me two sons.
Na papa tumasr ah fahk, ‘Komtal etu na lah Rachel, mutan kiuk, el tuh oswela wen luo na nu sik.
28 And the one disappeared from me, and I said, "Surely he is torn in pieces." And I haven't seen him since.
Sie seltal som likiyu tari. Sahp el eiyuki sin kosro sulallal, mweyen nga soenna sifil liyalak tukun el som ah nwe inge.
29 If you take this one also from me, and harm happens to him, you will bring down my gray hairs with sorrow to Sheol. (Sheol h7585)
Na komtal fin usalla pac el uh ac oasr kutu ma sikyak nu sel, na asor ma komtal orala nu sik uh ac ku na in uniyuwi, ke nga matuoh inge.’ (Sheol h7585)
30 So now, when I come to your servant my father and the boy is not with us, since his life is bound up in the boy's life,
“Ke ma inge, leum luk, nga fin folokla nu yurin papa tumuk, mwet kulansap lom, ac tulik se inge tia wi kut, na in oana ke moul lal uh arulana fulyang nu sin tulik se inge uh,
31 it will happen, when he sees that the boy is not with us, that he will die. Your servants will bring down the gray hairs of your servant our father with sorrow to Sheol. (Sheol h7585)
el fin liye lah tulik sac tia wi kut, el ac misa. Ac kut, mwet kulansap lom inge, pa ac oru tuh papa tumasr su matuoh in pacl inge elan misa ke asor lal. (Sheol h7585)
32 For your servant became collateral for the boy to my father, saying, 'If I do not bring him to you, then I will bear the blame to my father forever.'
Saya pacna, nga tuh wuleang ke moul luk nu sin papa tumuk ke tulik se inge. Nga tuh fahk nu sel mu nga fin tia folokunla tulik se inge nu yorol, na mwata uh ac fah oan fuk in moul luk nufon.
33 So now, please let your servant remain instead of the boy, a slave to my lord, and let the boy go up with his brothers.
Ke ma inge, leum luk, nunak munas, lela nu sik in muta aol tulik se inge mwet kohs lom. Fuhlella elan wi tamulel lal inge som.
34 For how will I go up to my father if the boy isn't with me? I could not bear to see the misery that would come on my father."
Nga ac folokla fuka nu yurin papa tumuk, tulik mukul se inge fin tia wiyu? Nga tia ku in ngetang liye ongoiya se inge fin sonol papa.”
