Genesis 42
1 And he saw Jacob that there [was] grain in Egypt and he said Jacob to sons his why? are you looking at one another.
Tango Jakobi ayokaki ete ble ezali na Ejipito, alobaki na bana na ye ya mibali: « Mpo na nini bozali kotalana bino na bino?
2 And he said here! I have heard that there [is] grain in Egypt go down there towards and buy grain for us from there so we may live and not we will die.
Nayoki ete ble ezali na Ejipito. Bokende kuna mpe bosomba ndambo mpo na biso mpo ete towumela na bomoi mpe tokufa te na nzala. »
3 And they went down [the] brothers of Joseph ten to buy grain grain from Egypt.
Bandeko mibali zomi ya Jozefi bakendeki na Ejipito mpo na kosomba ble.
4 And Benjamin [the] brother of Joseph not he sent Jacob with brothers his for he said lest it should happen to him harm.
Kasi Jakobi atikaki te Benjame, ndeko ya Jozefi ya mobali, ete akende elongo na bango, pamba te azalaki kobanga ete likama ekweyela ye.
5 And they came [the] sons of Israel to buy grain in among those coming for it was the famine in [the] land of Canaan.
Kati na bato oyo bakendeki kosomba ble na Ejipito, bana mibali ya Isalaele mpe bazalaki; pamba te nzala makasi ekotaki mpe na mokili ya Kanana.
6 And Joseph he [was] the ruler over the land he [was] the [one who] sold grain to all [the] people of the land and they came [the] brothers of Joseph and they bowed down to him face [the] ground towards.
Jozefi azalaki moyangeli ya mokili. Ye nde azalaki koteka ble epai ya bato na ye nyonso. Bongo tango bandeko ya Jozefi bakomaki, bagumbamaki liboso na ye mpe bakitisaki mito na se.
7 And he saw Joseph brothers his and he recognized them and he acted as a stranger to them and he spoke with them harsh and he said to them from where? have you come and they said from [the] land of Canaan to buy food.
Tango kaka Jozefi amonaki bango, asosolaki mbala moko ete bazali bandeko na ye. Kasi asalaki lokola nde azali mopaya liboso na bango mpe azalaki na maloba makasi epai na bango. Atunaki bango: — Bowuti wapi? Bazongisaki: — Towuti na mokili ya Kanana; toyei nde kosomba biloko ya kolia.
8 And he recognized Joseph brothers his and they not they recognized him.
Atako Jozefi asosolaki ete bazali bandeko na ye, kasi bango basosolaki ye te.
9 And he remembered Joseph the dreams which he had dreamed of them and he said to them [are] spies you to see [the] nakedness of the land you have come.
Bongo Jozefi akanisaki ndoto oyo alotaki na tina na bango mpe alobaki na bango: — Bino bozali penza banongi! Boyei nde kotala bisika nini mokili na biso ebatelami malamu te!
10 And they said to him no O lord my and servants your they have come to buy food.
Bazongisaki: — Te nkolo na ngai, basali na yo bayei nde kosomba biloko ya kolia.
11 All of us [are] sons of a man one we [are] honest we not they are servants your spies.
Tozali biso nyonso bana ya moto moko. Basali na yo bazali bato ya sembo, kasi bazali banongi te.
12 And he said to them In-deed [the] nakedness of the land you have come to see.
Alobaki na bango: — Te! Boyei na mokili na biso mpo na kotala bisika oyo ebatelami malamu te!
13 And they said [are] two [plus] ten servants your brothers - we sons of a man one in [the] land of Canaan and there! the young [brother] [is] with father our this day and the one not [is] he.
Kasi bango bazongisaki: — Basali na yo bazalaki bandeko mibali zomi na mibale; tozali bana ya moto moko oyo azali kovanda na mokili ya Kanana. Mwana ya suka azali sik’oyo elongo na tata na biso, mpe mosusu azalaka lisusu te.
14 And he said to them Joseph it [is that] which I said to you saying [are] spies you.
Kasi Jozefi alobaki na bango: — Ezali ndenge kaka nalobaki na bino: bozali banongi.
15 By this you will be tested [by] [the] life of Pharaoh if you will go out from here that except when comes brother your young here.
Tala ndenge nakomeka bino: Na kombo ya Faraon, bokolongwa na esika oyo te soki leki na bino ya suka akomi awa te!
16 Send of yourselves one so he may fetch brother your and you be imprisoned so they may be tested words your ¿ [is] truth with you and if not [by] [the] life of Pharaoh for [are] spies you.
Botinda moko kati na bino ete akende kozwa ndeko na bino ya mobali; mpe bino oyo bokotikala, bokozala na boloko mpo na komeka maloba na bino mpe kotala soki bolobi solo. Soki te, na kombo ya Faraon, bozali banongi!
17 And he removed them to custody three days.
Atiaki bango nyonso na boloko mikolo misato.
18 And he said to them Joseph on the day third this do and live God I [am] fearing.
Na mokolo ya misato, Jozefi ayebisaki bango: — Nazali moto oyo abangaka Nzambe. Bosala oyo nazali koloba mpe bokozala na bomoi.
19 If [are] honest you brother your one let him be imprisoned in [the] house of custody your and you go take [the] grain of [the] hunger of households your.
Soki bozali bato ya sembo, tika ete moko kati na bino atikala awa kati na boloko; bongo bino bamosusu bokende, bomema ble oyo esengeli mpo na mabota na bino, oyo ezali na nzala makasi.
20 And brother your young you will bring to me so they may be verified words your and not you will die and they did so.
Kasi bomemela ngai leki na bino ya suka. Yango ekolakisa ete bolobaki solo mpe bokokufa te. Basalaki bongo.
21 And they said each to brother his indeed [are] guilty - we on brother our who we saw [the] distress of self his when sought favor he to us and not we listened there-fore it has come to us the distress this.
Balobanaki bango na bango: — Solo, tozwi etumbu mpo na makambo oyo tosalaki ndeko na biso; pamba te tomonaki pasi na ye tango azalaki kobondela biso, kasi toyokaki ye te. Yango wana pasi oyo ekomeli biso.
22 And he answered Reuben them saying ¿ not did I say to you - saying may not you sin against the boy and not you listened and also blood his here! [is] being required.
Ribeni alobaki na bango: — Nayebisaki bino ete bosala mwana wana mabe te? Kasi boyokelaki ngai te. Sik’oyo tosengeli kofuta makila na ye!
23 And they not they knew that [was] hearing Joseph for the interpreter [was] between them.
Bayebaki te ete Jozefi akokaki kososola maloba na bango, mpo ete azalaki kosalela molimboli mpo na kosolola na bango.
24 And he turned away from with them and he wept and he returned to them and he spoke to them and he took from with them Simeon and he bound him to eyes their.
Jozefi apesaki mokongo, apusanaki mosika mpe abandaki kolela. Bongo azongelaki bango mpe asololaki lisusu na bango. Azwaki Simeoni kati na bango mpe akangaki ye na miso na bango.
25 And he commanded Joseph and people filled vessels their grain and to return silver their each to sack his and to give to them provision[s] for the journey and someone did for them thus.
Jozefi apesaki mitindo ete batondisa ble na basaki na bango, bazongisa mbongo ya moto na moto na saki na ye mpe bapesa bango bilei mpo na nzela. Esalemelaki bango bongo.
26 And they lifted grain their on donkeys their and they went from there.
Batiaki ble na bango likolo ya ba-ane na bango mpe bakendeki.
27 And he opened the one sack his to give fodder to donkey his at the lodging place and he saw silver his and there! it [was] in [the] mouth of sack his.
Na esika oyo batelamaki mpo na kolekisa butu, moko na bango afungolaki saki na ye mpo na koleisa ane na ye mpe amonaki mbongo na ye na moto ya saki na ye.
28 And he said to brothers his it has been returned silver my and also here! in sack my and it went out heart their and they trembled each to brother his saying what? this has he done God to us.
Ayebisaki bandeko na ye: — Bazongiseli ngai mbongo na ngai, tala yango oyo na saki na ngai! Mitema na bango ebetaki mpe babandaki kolenga, balobanaki bango na bango: — Likambo nini oyo Nzambe asali biso!
29 And they came to Jacob father their [the] land of towards Canaan and they told to him all the [things which] had happened to them saying.
Tango bakomaki epai ya tata na bango Jakobi na mokili ya Kanana, bayebisaki ye makambo nyonso oyo ekomelaki bango. Balobaki:
30 He spoke the man [the] lord of the land with us harsh and he made us like [those who] spy out the land.
— Moto oyo azali mokonzi ya mokili alobelaki biso na maloba makasi. Azwaki biso lokola banongi.
31 And we said to him [are] honest we not we are spies.
Kasi tolobaki na ye: « Tozali bato ya sembo, tozali banongi te.
32 [are] two [plus] Ten we brothers sons of father our the one not [is] he and the young [brother] this day [is] with father our in [the] land of Canaan.
Tozalaki bandeko mibali zomi na mibale, bana ya tata moko. Moko azalaka lisusu te mpe oyo ya suka azali sik’oyo elongo na tata na biso, na mokili ya Kanana. »
33 And he said to us the man [the] lord of the land by this I will know that [are] honest you brother your one leave with me and [the] hunger of households your take and go.
Na boye, moto oyo azali mokonzi ya mokili azongiselaki biso: « Tala lolenge nakoyeba ete bozali bato ya sembo: ‹ Botikela ngai awa ndeko moko kati na bino. Bozwa biloko ya kolia oyo esengeli mpo na mabota na bino oyo ezali na nzala makasi mpe bokende.
34 And bring brother your young to me so let me know that not [are] spies you that [are] honest you brother your I will give to you and the land you will go about in.
Boyela ngai leki na bino ya suka. Na bongo, nakoyeba ete bozali banongi te, kasi bato ya sembo; mpe ngai nakozongisela bino ndeko na bino, sima nakotika bino mpo ete bokoka kosala mombongo na mokili. › »
35 And it was they [were] emptying sacks their and there! each man [the] bag of silver his [was] in sack his and they saw [the] bags of silver their they and father their and they were afraid.
Tango bafungolaki basaki na bango, moko na moko amonaki mbongo na ye na saki. Bango na tata na bango bamonaki mbongo mpe bango nyonso babangaki.
36 And he said to them Jacob father their me you are making childless Joseph not [is] he and Simeon not [is] he and Benjamin you will take on me they are all of them.
Tata na bango Jakobi alobaki na bango: — Bozangisi ngai bana na ngai mibale ya mibali: Jozefi azali lisusu te, Simeoni mpe azali lisusu te. Mpe sik’oyo bolingi kozwa lisusu Benjame! Makambo oyo nyonso ezali kokweyela kaka ngai!
37 And he said Reuben to father his saying two of sons my you will kill if not I will bring him to you put! him on hand my and I I will bring back him to you.
Ribeni alobaki na tata na ye: — Pesa ngai Benjame, mpe nakomemela yo ye. Soki namemeli yo ye te, boma bana na ngai mibale ya mibali.
38 And he said not he will go down son my with you for brother his he has died and he to only him [is] remaining and it will happen to him harm on the journey which you will go on it and you will cause to go down gray hair my in sorrow Sheol towards. (Sheol h7585)
Jakobi azongisaki: — Te! Mwana na ngai akokende elongo na bino te. Ndeko na ye ya mobali akufa; natikala kaka na ye. Soki likama ekweyeli ye na mobembo oyo bozali kokende, wana bokoboma ngai na pasi, na kimobange na ngai! (Sheol h7585)
