Genesis 42
1 Now Jacob saw that there was corn in Egypt, and Jacob said unto his sons, Why do ye look one upon another?
Sa’ad da Yaƙub ya sami labari cewa akwai hatsi a Masar, sai ya ce wa’ya’yansa maza, “Don me kuke duban juna kawai?”
2 And he said, Behold, I have heard that there is corn in Egypt: get you down thither, and buy for us from thence; that we may live, and not die.
Ya ci gaba, “Na ji cewa akwai hatsi a Masar. Ku gangara can ku sayo mana, domin mu rayu kada mu mutu.”
3 And Joseph’s ten brethren went down to buy corn from Egypt.
Sai goma daga cikin’yan’uwan Yusuf suka gangara don su saya hatsi daga Masar.
4 But Benjamin, Joseph’s brother, Jacob sent not with his brethren; for he said, Lest peradventure mischief befall him.
Amma Yaƙub bai aiki Benyamin, ɗan’uwan Yusuf tare da sauran ba, gama yana tsoro kada wani abu yă faru da shi.
5 And the sons of Israel came to buy among those that came: for the famine was in the land of Canaan.
Sai’ya’yan Yaƙub suka isa Masar tare da sauran mutanen don sayen abinci, gama yunwar ta kai yankin Kan’ana ma.
6 And Joseph was the governor over the land; he it was that sold to all the people of the land: and Joseph’s brethren came, and bowed down themselves to him with their faces to the earth.
To, Yusuf ne gwamnar ƙasar wanda yake sayar da hatsi ga dukan mutanenta. Saboda haka sa’ad da’yan’uwan Yusuf suka isa, sai suka rusuna masa har ƙasa da fuskokinsu.
7 And Joseph saw his brethren, and he knew them, but made himself strange unto them, and spake roughly with them; and he said unto them, Whence come ye? And they said, From the land of Canaan to buy food.
Nan da nan da Yusuf ya ga’yan’uwansa, sai ya gane su, amma ya yi kamar baƙo, ya kuma yi musu magana da tsawa. Ya tambaya, “Daga ina kuka fito?” Suka amsa, “Daga ƙasar Kan’ana, don mu saya abinci.”
8 And Joseph knew his brethren, but they knew not him.
Ko da yake Yusuf ya gane’yan’uwansa, su ba su gane shi ba.
9 And Joseph remembered the dreams which he dreamed of them, and said unto them, Ye are spies; to see the nakedness of the land ye are come.
Sa’an nan ya tuna da mafarkansa game da su, ya kuma ce musu, “Ku’yan leƙen asiri ne! Kun zo don ku leƙi asirin ƙasar ku ga inda ba ta da tsaro.”
10 And they said unto him, Nay, my lord, but to buy food are thy servants come.
Suka amsa suka ce, “A’a, ranka yă daɗe, bayinka sun zo don saya abinci ne.
11 We are all one man’s sons; we are true men, thy servants are no spies.
Mu duka’ya’yan mutum ɗaya maza ne. Bayinka mutane ne masu gaskiya, ba’yan leƙen asiri ba ne.”
12 And he said unto them, Nay, but to see the nakedness of the land ye are come.
Ya ce musu “Sam! Kun zo ne ku ga inda ƙasarmu babu tsaro.”
13 And they said, We thy servants are twelve brethren, the sons of one man in the land of Canaan; and, behold, the youngest is this day with our father, and one is not.
Amma suka amsa suka ce, “Bayinka dā su goma sha biyu ne,’yan’uwa,’ya’yan mutum guda maza, wanda yake zama a ƙasar Kan’ana. Ƙaraminmu yanzu yana tare da mahaifinmu, ɗayan kuma ya rasu.”
14 And Joseph said unto them, That is it that I spake unto you, saying, Ye are spies:
Yusuf ya ce musu, “Daidai ne yadda na faɗa muku. Ku’yan leƙen asiri ne!
15 hereby ye shall be proved: by the life of Pharaoh ye shall not go forth hence, except your youngest brother come hither.
Ga kuwa yadda za a gwada ku. Muddin Fir’auna yana a raye, ba za ku bar wannan wuri ba sai ƙaramin ɗan’uwanku ya zo nan.
16 Send one of you, and let him fetch your brother, and ye shall be bound, that your words may be proved, whether there be truth in you: or else by the life of Pharaoh surely ye are spies.
Ku aiki ɗaya daga cikinku yă kawo ɗan’uwanku; za a sa sauranku a kurkuku, saboda a gwada maganarku a ga ko gaskiya ce kuke faɗi. In ba haka ba, to, da ran Fir’auna, ku’yan leƙen asiri ne!”
17 And he put them all together into ward three days.
Ya kuwa sa su duka a kurkuku na kwana uku.
18 And Joseph said unto them the third day, This do, and live; for I fear God:
A rana ta uku, Yusuf ya ce musu, “Ku yi wannan za ku kuwa rayu, gama ina tsoron Allah.
19 if ye be true men, let one of your brethren be bound in your prison house; but go ye, carry corn for the famine of your houses:
In ku mutane masu gaskiya ne, ku bar ɗaya daga cikin’yan’uwanku yă zauna a kurkuku, yayinda sauranku su tafi, su kai hatsi don gidajenku da suke yunwa.
20 and bring your youngest brother unto me; so shall your words be verified, and ye shall not die. And they did so.
Amma dole ku kawo ƙaramin ɗan’uwanku gare ni, saboda a tabbatar da maganarku har ba za ku mutu ba.” Suka kuwa yi haka.
21 And they said one to another, We are verily guilty concerning our brother, in that we saw the distress of his soul, when he besought us, and we would not hear; therefore is this distress come upon us.
Sai suka ce wa juna, “Tabbatacce ana hukunta mu ne saboda ɗan’uwanmu. Mun ga yadda ya yi wahala sa’ad da ya roƙe mu saboda ransa, amma ba mu saurare shi ba, shi ya sa wannan wahala ta zo mana.”
22 And Reuben answered them, saying, Spake I not unto you, saying, Do not sin against the child; and ye would not hear? therefore also, behold, his blood is required.
Ruben ya amsa, “Ban faɗa muku cewa kada ku ɗauki alhakin yaron nan ba, sai kuka ƙi ji, to, yau ga alhakin jininsa muke biya.”
23 And they knew not that Joseph understood them; for there was an interpreter between them.
Ba su san cewa Yusuf yana jin su ba, da yake yana amfani da mai fassara ne.
24 And he turned himself about from them, and wept; and he returned to them, and spake to them, and took Simeon from among them, and bound him before their eyes.
Sai ya juya daga gare su ya yi kuka, sa’an nan ya dawo ya yi musu magana kuma. Ya sa aka ɗauke Simeyon daga gare su, aka daure shi a idanunsu.
25 Then Joseph commanded to fill their vessels with corn, and to restore every man’s money into his sack, and to give them provision for the way: and thus was it done unto them.
Yusuf ya yi umarni a cika buhunansu da hatsi, a kuma sa azurfan kowane mutum a cikin buhunsa, a kuma ba su kalaci don tafiyarsu. Bayan aka yi musu wannan,
26 And they laded their asses with their corn, and departed thence.
suka jibga hatsinsu a kan jakuna, sai suka kama hanya.
27 And as one of them opened his sack to give his ass provender in the lodging place, he espied his money; and, behold, it was in the mouth of his sack.
A wurin da suka tsaya don su kwana, ɗaya daga cikinsu ya buɗe buhunsa don yă ciyar da jakinsa, sai ya ga azurfansa a bakin buhunsa.
28 And he said unto his brethren, My money is restored; and, lo, it is even in my sack: and their heart failed them, and they turned trembling one to another, saying, What is this that God hath done unto us?
Sai ya ce wa’yan’uwansa, “An mayar mini da azurfata. Ga shi a cikin buhuna.” Zuciyarsu ta karai, suka dubi juna suna rawan jiki, suka ce, “Mene ne wannan da Allah ya yi mana?”
29 And they came unto Jacob their father unto the land of Canaan, and told him all that had befallen them; saying,
Sa’ad da suka zo wurin mahaifinsu Yaƙub a ƙasar Kan’ana, suka faɗa masa dukan abin da ya faru da su. Suka ce,
30 The man, the lord of the land, spake roughly with us, and took us for spies of the country.
“Mutumin da yake shugaba a ƙasar ya yi mana matsananciyar magana, ya kuma ɗauke mu tamƙar’yan leƙen asirin ƙasa.
31 And we said unto him, We are true men; we are no spies:
Amma muka ce masa, ‘Mu masu gaskiya ne; mu ba’yan leƙen asiri ba ne.
32 we be twelve brethren, sons of our father; one is not, and the youngest is this day with our father in the land of Canaan.
Dā mu’yan’uwa ne goma sha biyu,’ya’yan mahaifi guda maza. Ɗayanmu ya rasu, kuma ƙaramin yanzu yana tare da mahaifinmu a Kan’ana.’
33 And the man, the lord of the land, said unto us, Hereby shall I know that ye are true men; leave one of your brethren with me, and take [corn for] the famine of your houses, and go your way:
“Sai mutumin wanda yake shugaba a kan ƙasar ya ce mana, ‘Ga yadda zan san ko ku mutane masu gaskiya ne. Ku bar ɗaya daga cikin’yan’uwanku a nan tare da ni, ku ɗauki abinci domin gidajenku masu yunwa, ku tafi.
34 and bring your youngest brother unto me: then shall I know that ye are no spies, but that ye are true men: so will I deliver you your brother, and ye shall traffick in the land.
Amma ku kawo mini ƙaramin ɗan’uwanku domin in san cewa ku ba’yan leƙen asiri ba ne, amma mutane ne masu gaskiya. Sa’an nan zan mayar muku da ɗan’uwanku, ku kuma iya yin sana’a a ƙasar.’”
35 And it came to pass as they emptied their sacks, that, behold, every man’s bundle of money was in his sack: and when they and their father saw their bundles of money, they were afraid.
Yayinda suke juyewa hatsi daga buhunansu, sai ga ƙunshin azurfan kowane mutum a buhunsa! Sa’ad da su da mahaifinsu suka ga ƙunshe-ƙunshen kuɗi, suka firgita.
36 And Jacob their father said unto them, Me have ye bereaved of my children: Joseph is not, and Simeon is not, and ye will take Benjamin away: all these things are against me.
Yaƙub mahaifinsu, ya ce musu, “Kun sa ni rashin’ya’yana. Yusuf ya rasu, Simeyon kuma ba ya nan, yanzu kuma kuna so ku ɗauki Benyamin. Kome yana gāba da ni!”
37 And Reuben spake unto his father, saying, Slay my two sons, if I bring him not to thee: deliver him into my hand, and I will bring him to thee again.
Sai Ruben ya ce wa mahaifinsa, “Ka kashe dukan’ya’yana maza, in ban dawo da shi gare ka ba. Ka sa shi ga kulawata, zan kuwa dawo da shi.”
38 And he said, My son shall not go down with you; for his brother is dead, and he only is left: if mischief befall him by the way in the which ye go, then shall ye bring down my gray hairs with sorrow to the grave. (Sheol h7585)
Amma Yaƙub ya ce, “Ɗana ba zai gangara zuwa can tare da ku ba, ɗan’uwansa ya rasu, shi ne kaɗai ya rage. In wani abu ya faru da shi a tafiyar da za ku yi, za ku sa furfurata ta gangara zuwa kabari cikin baƙin ciki.” (Sheol h7585)
