Genesis 47
1 So then Joseph went in, and told Pharaoh, and said—My father and my brethren, and their flocks and their herds and all that they have, are come in from the land of Canaan, —and, here they are, in the land of Goshen.
Basa ma, Yusuf no toronoo nara lima reu risiꞌ maneꞌ a. Ana nafadꞌe nae, “Ama maneꞌ! Au ama ngga no odꞌi-aꞌa nggara rema mia Kanaꞌan ena. Ara rema rendi banda hiek-lombo, sapi, ma sudꞌiꞌ a saa nara. Basa se sia Gosen ena.”
2 Moreover out of the whole number of his brethren, he took with him five men, —and set them before Pharaoh.
3 And Pharaoh said unto the brethren of Joseph—What is your occupation? And they said unto Pharaoh—Feeders of flocks, are thy servants, both we and our fathers.
Boe ma maneꞌ a natane nae, “Hei ue-tatao ma saa?” Rataa rae, “Hai manatadꞌa onaꞌ hai bei-baꞌi mara.
4 And they said unto Pharaoh—To sojourn in the land, are we come in, for there is no pasture for the flocks which pertain to thy servants, for, severe, is the famine in the land of Canaan. Now, therefore, let thy servants dwell we pray thee in the land of Goshen.
Aleꞌ ia, sia rae Kanaꞌan ndoe-laꞌas naseliꞌ de nda hambu nanaat ma uru sa ena. Naa de, hai ima sia nusaꞌ ia fo leo miꞌitataaꞌ. Hai o mendi banda mara boe. De hai mae moꞌe ama maneꞌ, fo leo sia Gosen, fo miꞌiboi banda ra sia naa.”
5 Then spake Pharaoh unto Joseph saying, —Thy father and thy brethren, are come in unto thee.
Boe ma maneꞌ a nafadꞌe hihii-nanau na neu Yusuf nae, “Ia naa, ama ma no odꞌi-aꞌa mara sia ia ena.
6 The land of Egypt, is, before thee, in the best of the land, cause thou thy father and thy brethren to dwell, —let them dwell in the land of Goshen, And if thou knowest that there are among them men of ability, then shalt thou set them as chieftains of cattle over mine.
De ara bole tao nusaꞌ ia onaꞌ sira nusa na. Au uhine ngga, Gosen naa, mamana maloleꞌ sia nusaꞌ ia. De malole lenaꞌ ara leo siaꞌ a naa leo. Ma mete ma sira rahine tao-mataꞌ neu banda no maloleꞌ, naa, onaꞌ bee na ara tao-mataꞌ neu banda nggara sia naa boe.”
7 So Joseph brought in Jacob his father, and caused him to stand before Pharaoh, —and Jacob blessed Pharaoh.
Basa naa ma, Yusuf natudꞌu ama na neu maneꞌ a. De Yakob hule-oꞌe neu Lamatualain, noꞌe papala-babꞌanggiꞌ fee maneꞌ a.
8 And Pharaoh said unto Jacob: About how many, have been the days of the years of thy life?
Basa naa ma, maneꞌ a natane e nae, “Amaꞌ too hira ena?”
9 And Jacob said unto Pharaoh, The days of the years of my sojournings, have been a hundred and thirty years, —Few and evil, have been the days of the years of my life, neither have they attained unto the days of the years of the lives of my fathers, in the days of their sojournings.
Yakob nataa nae, “Au usodꞌa too natun esa telu nulu ena, te au nda leo sia mamanaꞌ esaꞌ a sa. Au bei-baꞌi nggara o onaꞌ naa boe. Te au too ngga memaꞌ eꞌekuꞌ lenaꞌ se. Ma sofeꞌ no doidꞌosoꞌ.”
10 And Jacob blessed Pharaoh, —and came forth from the presence of Pharaoh.
Basa de Yakob natea maneꞌ a. Ana nda feꞌe lao sa, te ana noꞌe Lamatualain fee papala-babꞌanggiꞌ neu maneꞌ a fai.
11 So then Joseph fixed the dwelling of his father and his brethren, and gave them a possession in the land of Egypt in the best of the land. in the land of Rameses, —as Pharaoh had commanded.
Yusuf tungga maneꞌ a oꞌola na, de natudꞌu mamanaꞌ fee se sia Gosen. Mamanaꞌ naa maloleꞌ. (Dei de ara babꞌae mamanaꞌ naa ‘Rameses’.) Basa de Yusuf ama na no odi-aꞌa nara leo rakandoo sia naa.
12 And Joseph nourished his father and his brethren, and all his father’s house, —with bread, according to the need of their little ones.
Yusuf o banggi-bꞌae nanaat fee ama na, odi-aꞌa nara, ro basa sao-ana nara, tungga sira ume isi nara dedꞌesi nara.
13 But, bread, was there none in all the land, —for the famine was, very severe, —so that the land of Egypt and the land of Canaan fainted by reason of the famine,
Leleꞌ naa, ndoe-laꞌas manaseliꞌ, de sia bee-bꞌee nanaat nese. Mia Masir losa Kanaꞌan atahori ra masaloe ena. Ara nda tao rala saa-saa saꞌ boe, huu ndoe ritaꞌ a mamate nara.
14 So Joseph gathered up all the silver that was found in the land of Egypt. and in the land of Canaan, for the corn which, they, were buying, —and Joseph brought the silver into the house of Pharaoh.
Naa de, atahori mia basa mamanaꞌ sia Masir no Kanaꞌan, rema hasa nanaat sia Yusuf. Ana naduru doiꞌ ra, de neu mbedꞌa sia maneꞌ a ume na.
15 And the silver was spent out of the land of Egypt and out of the land of Canaan, so all the Egyptians came in unto Joseph, saying—Do give us bread, for why should we die before thee, although, silver, hath failed?
Dꞌoo-dꞌoo ma, atahori Masir ro Kanaꞌan ra doi nara basa se ena. De ara nda hasa rala nanaat sa ena. Ara risiꞌ Yusuf, ma roꞌe rae, “Ama fetor e! Fee hai nanaat dei, fo hai afiꞌ mate ndoes. Te basa hai doi mara ena.”
16 Then said Joseph: Give your cattle, and I will give you for your cattle, —if silver hath failed.
Yusuf nataa nae, “Mete ma memaꞌ hei doiꞌ nese ena, naa, taꞌo ia: fee banda mara fo nggati no nanaat.”
17 So they brought in their cattle unto Joseph, and Joseph gave them bread in exchange for the horses and for the cattle of the flock and for the cattle of the herd, and for the asses, —and he provided them with bread for all their cattle, throughout that year.
De ara fee banda nara reu Yusuf, fo nggati no nanaat. Ara fee ndara, hiek-lombo, sapi no keledei nara. No taꞌo naa, ara rasodꞌa tooꞌ naa, huu Yusuf tao taꞌo naa.
18 When that year was ended, then came they unto him in the second year and said to him—We will not hide from my lord, how that the silver and the herds of beasts for my lord are come to an end, —there is nothing left before my lord, save only our bodies and our ground:
Manafali ma, ara rema risiꞌ Yusuf rae, “Ama fetor e! Hai olaꞌ no matetuꞌ. Hai doi ma no banda mara, amaꞌ nggati mala basa se ena. Nda afiꞌ hela saa saꞌ boe. Helaꞌ a hai ao ma no rae ma.
19 Wherefore should we die before thine eyes both we, and our ground? Buy thou us and our ground, for bread, —and we and our ground will become servants to Pharaoh, and give seed, that we may live, and not die, and the ground, not lie waste.
Dadꞌi afiꞌ hela hai mate. Mete ma hai mate, seka mana tao mataꞌ neu rae ra? Malole lenaꞌ, ama fetor haꞌi mala hai dadꞌi ate. Haꞌi mala hai rae ma dadꞌi amaꞌ ena na boe. Ma fee fini-ngges fo hai sela fee amaꞌ. Hai bebengge ma, no rae a, amaꞌ nggati no nanaat. Sadꞌi hai afiꞌ mate!”
20 So Joseph bought all the ground of the Egyptians for Pharaoh, for the Egyptians sold every man his field, because the famine had laid fast hold upon them, —so the land became Pharaoh’s.
Huu ndoe-laꞌas boe fua, naa de basa atahori Masir ra seo hendiꞌ rae nara. De Yusuf hasa nala basa rae sia Masir, dadꞌi maneꞌ a enan.
21 And as for the people, he brought them into bondage as servants, —from one end of the boundary of Egypt unto the other end thereof.
Naa de, basa rauinggu Masir ra dadꞌi maneꞌ a ate na.
22 Only, the ground of the priests, bought he not, —for the priests had a statutory-portion, from Pharaoh and they had been eating their statutory-portion, which Pharaoh had given them, for which cause, they had not sold their ground.
Te mia basa e, Yusuf nda hasa malangga agama ra rae na sa, huu maneꞌ a fee se nanaat nakandooꞌ a. Naa de, ara nda parlu seo rae nara sa.
23 And Joseph said unto the people, Lo! I have bought you this day, and your ground for Pharaoh, —see, here is seed for you, so shall ye sow the ground;
Leleꞌ naa, Yusuf olaꞌ no manggaraun nara nae, “Ia naa hei dadꞌi maneꞌ a ate na. Basa hei rae ma, au hasa ala fee maneꞌ a ena. De mala fini-ngges ia ra, fo mii sela neu rae ra leo.
24 and it shall come to pass that, of the yield, ye shall give a fifth to Pharaoh, —but the four parts, shall be your own—for seed for the field, and for your food and for them who are in your households and for food for your little ones.
Dei fo oru naa, banggi neu lima. Babanggiꞌ esa mendi fee neu maneꞌ a. Hela babanggiꞌ haa, hei tao neu fini, ma mo ume isi mara mia.”
25 And they said—Thou hast saved our lives! let us find favour in the eyes of my lord, so will we become Pharaoh’s servants.
Ara rataa rae, “Amaꞌ fee masodꞌaꞌ nema hai. Huu naa, hai moꞌe makasi. Hai mae dadꞌi maneꞌ a ate nara.”
26 And Joseph appointed it for a statute—until this day, regarding the ground of Egypt, that Pharaoh, should take a fifth, —only, the ground of the priests, was, theirs alone, it had not become Pharaoh’s.
Yusuf tao hohoro-lalaneꞌ naa dadꞌi adat sia Masir. Mia basa are fo manggaraun ra oru, ara banggi neu lima. Babanggiꞌ esa fee neu maneꞌ a. Ma babanggiꞌ haa, ara soa. Akaꞌ a malangga agama ra rae nara, maneꞌ a nda hasa sa. Adat naa, feꞌe sia losa faiꞌ ia.
27 Thus Israel dwelt in the land of Egypt in the land of Goshen, —and gained possessions therein, and became fruitful and multiplied exceedingly.
Eniꞌ a leleꞌ naa, atahori Israꞌel ra leo rakandoo sia Masir, sia rae Gosen. Ara ramasuꞌi, ma tititi-nonosi nara boe ramaheta.
28 And Jacob lived in the land of Egypt seventeen years, —so it came to pass that the days of Jacob, the years of his life, were a hundred and forty-seven years.
Yakob feꞌe nasodꞌa too sanahulu hitu fai sia Masir. De ana too natun esa haa nulu hitu.
29 And the days of Israel drew near that he must die, so he called for his son for Joseph and said to him—If, I pray thee I have found favour in thine eyes, place, I pray thee thy hand under my thigh, —so shalt thou deal with me in lovingkindness and faithfulness—Do not I pray thee, bury me in Egypt.
Fai mamate na deka-deka boe, ana noꞌe Yusuf de nafadꞌe nae, “Ana Usu e! Au duꞌa-duꞌa na nda doo sa ena, Lamatualain noꞌe baliꞌ au. Dadꞌi au oꞌe, mete ma sue au, naa, teꞌa fo afiꞌ muꞌoi au sia rae Masir ia.
30 When I shall lie down with my fathers, then shalt thou carry me out of Egypt, and bury me in their buryingplace. And he said: I, will do according to thy word.
Musi mendi baliꞌ au ao sisi ngga, nisiꞌ bei-baꞌi tara mamana na. Muꞌoi au sia naa, huu naa, au hiihii ngga.” Yusuf nataa nae, “Malole, amaꞌ! Mete ma amaꞌ nau taꞌo naa, naa, au tunggaꞌ a.”
31 Then he said: Come, swear to me! And he sware to him. Then did Israel bow himself down on the head of the couch.
Yakob olaꞌ seluꞌ nae, “Te, mete ma taꞌo naa, naa, oras ia ho teꞌa dei, mae ho tungga amaꞌ hihiin.” De Yusuf teꞌa tungga Yakob oꞌola na. Basa naa ma, Yakob sendeꞌ lululangga na neu koi ata de hule-oꞌe noꞌe makasi neu Lamatualain.
