Genesis 43
1 And the famine [was] heavy in the land.
Njala inakula kwambiri mʼdzikomo.
2 And it was just when they finished to eat the grain which they had brought from Egypt and he said to them father their go back buy for us a little of food.
Tsono atatha kudya tirigu yense amene anakatenga ku Igupto, Yakobo anati kwa ana ake aja, “Pitani kuti mukatigulire chakudya china pangʼono.”
3 And he said to him Judah saying certainly he warned us the man saying not you will see face my except brother your [is] with you.
Koma Yuda anati kwa iye, “Munthu uja anatichenjeza monenetsa kuti, ‘Simudzandionanso ine pokhapokha mutabwera ndi mngʼono wanu.’
4 If there you [are] sending brother our with us we will go down and we will buy for you food.
Mukalola kuti mngʼono wathuyu apite nafe, ndiye ife tidzapita kukakugulirani chakudya.
5 And if not you [are] sending [him] not we will go down for the man he said to us not you will see face my except brother your [is] with you.
Koma mukapanda kumulola, ife sitipita, chifukwa munthuyo anatiwuza kuti, ‘Simudzandionanso pokhapokha mutabwera ndi mngʼono wanuyo.’”
6 And he said Israel why? did you do harm to me by telling to the man ¿ still [belong] to you [does] a brother.
Tsono Israeli anafunsa kuti, “Bwanji inu munandiputira mavuto oterewa pomuwuza munthuyo kuti muli ndi mʼbale wanu wina?”
7 And they said carefully he asked the man of us and of kindred our saying ¿ still [is] father your living ¿ [does] there [belong] to you a brother and we told to him on [the] mouth of the words these ¿ really did we know that he will say bring down brother your.
Iwo anayankha, “Munthuyo ankangofunsafunsa za ife ndi za banja lathu. Iye anatifunsa kuti, ‘Kodi abambo anu akanali ndi moyo? Kodi muli ndi mʼbale wanu wina?’ Ife tinkangoyankha mafunso ake. Ife tikanadziwa bwanji kuti adzanena kuti, ‘Mubwere naye kuno mʼbale wanu’?”
8 And he said Judah to Israel father his send! the young man with me so let us arise and we will go and we may live and not we will die both we as well as you as well as little one[s] our.
Ndipo Yuda anati kwa Israeli abambo ake, “Muloleni mnyamatayo apite ndi ine, ndipo tinyamuka nthawi yomweyo, kuti ife ndi inu pamodzi ndi ana athu tikhale ndi moyo.
9 I I will stand surety for him from hand my you will require him if not I have brought him to you and I will set him before you and I will be culpable to you all the days.
Ine ndidzipereka kuti ndikhale chikole cha moyo wa mnyamatayu. Ine ndidzamuteteza. Ngati sindibwera naye ndi kumupereka kwa inu, ndidzakhala wolakwa pamaso panu moyo wanga wonse.
10 For if not we had delayed for now we have returned this two times.
Mmene zililimu, tikanapanda kuchedwa, bwenzi titapita ndi kubwerako kawiri.”
11 And he said to them Israel father their if so - then this do take some of [the] best products of the land in vessels your and take down to the man a gift a little of balm and a little of honey spice and myrrh pistachio nuts and almonds.
Tsono abambo awo Israeli anawawuza kuti, “Ngati pafunika kutero, ndiye muchite izi: Ikanimo zipatso zabwino kwambiri za dziko lino mʼmatumba mwanu ndi kumutengera munthuyo ngati mphatso. Mumutengere mafuta wopaka pangʼono, uchi pangʼono, mafuta wonunkhiritsa chakudya, mule, mtedza ndi alimoni.
12 And silver double take in hand your and the silver that was returned in [the] mouth of sacks your you will take back in hand your perhaps [was] a mistake it.
Mutenge ndalama zokwanira. Ndalama zina nʼzokamubwezera zija anakuyikirani mʼmatumba anu zija. Mwina anangolakwitsa.
13 And brother your take and arise go back to the man.
Mutengeninso mngʼono wanuyu ndi kubwerera kwa munthuyo msanga.
14 And God Almighty may he give to you compassion before the man and he will let go to you brother your other and Benjamin and I just when I have been bereaved I have been bereaved.
Ndipo Mulungu Wamphamvuzonse akuchitireni chifundo pamaso pa munthuyo kuti akamulole mʼbale wanu wina uja ndi Benjamini kuti abwerere ndi inu. Kukakhala kulira, ndine wolira basi.”
15 And they took the men the gift this and double money they took in hand their and Benjamin and they arose and they went down Egypt and they stood before Joseph.
Choncho abale aja anatenga mphatso, ndalama zokwanira ndi Benjamininso. Iwo anafulumira kupita ku Igupto ndipo anakaonekera kwa Yosefe.
16 And he saw Joseph with them Benjamin and he said to [the one] who [was] over household his bring the men the house towards and slaughter a slaughter and prepare [it] for with me they will eat the men at noon.
Yosefe ataona Benjamini ali pamodzi ndi abale ake, anati kwa wantchito wa mʼnyumba mwake, “Atengereni anthu awa ku nyumba kwanga, ndipo uphe nyama ndi kukonza bwino chakudya popeza amenewa adya ndi ine masana ano.”
17 And he did the man just as he said Joseph and he brought the man the men [the] house of towards Joseph.
Wantchitoyo anachita monga momwe Yosefe ananenera, ndipo anawatengera abale aja ku nyumba kwa Yosefe.
18 And they were afraid the men that they were brought [the] house of Joseph and they said on [the] matter of the silver which returned in sacks our at the beginning we [are] being brought to roll himself on us and to throw himself on us and to take us to slaves and donkeys our.
Tsono anthu aja anachita mantha ataona kuti akuwatengera ku nyumba kwa Yosefe. Mʼmaganizo awo ankanena kuti, “Atibweretsa kuno chifukwa cha ndalama zija zinabwezeredwa mʼmatumba athu poyamba paja. Ameneyu akufuna kuti atipanikize ndi kutigwira ukapolo natilanda abulu athu.”
19 And they approached the man who [was] over [the] household of Joseph and they spoke to him [the] entrance of the house.
Choncho atafika pa khomo la nyumba ya Yosefe anamuyandikira wantchito wa Yosefe nayankhula naye kuti,
20 And they said pardon us O lord my certainly we came down at the beginning to buy food.
“Pepani mbuye wathu, ife tinabweranso ulendo woyamba kudzagula chakudya
21 And it was that we came to the lodging place and we opened! sacks our and there! [the] silver of each man [was] in [the] mouth of sack his silver our in weight its and we have brought back it in hand our.
koma titafika pa malo ena kuti tigone, tinatsekula matumba athu ndipo aliyense wa ife anapeza ndalama zake momwe zinalili zili pakamwa pa thumba lake. Ndiye tabwerera nazo.
22 And silver other we have brought down in hand our to buy food not we know who? did he put silver our in sacks our.
Tabweretsanso ndalama zina kuti tigule chakudya. Sitikudziwa kuti kaya ndani anayika ndalamazo mʼmatumba athu.”
23 And he said peace [be] to you may not you fear God your and [the] God of father your he gave to you treasure in sacks your silver your it came to me and he brought out to them Simeon.
Koma iye anati, “Mitima yanu ikhale pansi ndipo musachite mantha. Mulungu wanu, Mulungu wa abambo anu, anakuyikirani chumacho mʼmatumba anu. Ine ndinalandira ndalama zanu.” Ndipo anakawatulutsira Simeoni.
24 And he brought the man the men [the] house of towards Joseph and he gave water and they washed feet their and he gave fodder to donkeys their.
Wantchito uja anawalowetsa anthuwo mʼnyumba ya Yosefe, nawapatsa madzi kuti asambe mapazi awo. Anadyetsanso abulu awo.
25 And they prepared the gift until came Joseph at noon for they had heard that there they will eat food.
Abale aja anakonzeratu mphatso zawo zija kuti adzapereke kwa Yosefe, popeza anamva kuti Yosefe adzadya komweko masana.
26 And he came Joseph the house towards and they brought to him the gift which [was] in hand their the house towards and they bowed down to him [the] ground towards.
Yosefe atafika ku nyumbako, iwo anapereka mphatso zija namuweramira pansi.
27 And he asked of them to welfare and he said ¿ health [is] father your old whom you spoke ¿ [is] still he alive.
Yosefe anawafunsa za moyo wawo kenaka anati, “Kodi abambo anu wokalamba amene munkandiwuza aja ali bwanji? Ali ndi moyobe?”
28 And they said health [belongs] to servant your to father our still he [is] alive and they bowed low (and they bowed down. *Q(K)*)
Iwo anayankha kuti, “Mtumiki wanu abambo athu akanali ndi moyo ndipo ali bwino.” Ndipo anamugwadira namuweramira pansi.
29 And he lifted up eyes his and he saw Benjamin brother his [the] son of mother his and he said ¿ [is] this brother your young whom you spoke to me and he said God may he show favor to you O son my.
Pomwazamwaza maso Yosefe anaona Benjamini, mʼbale wake weniweni wa bere limodzi, ndipo anafunsa, “Kodi uyu ndiye mʼbale wanu wamngʼono kwambiri amene munkandiwuza uja?” Kenaka anati, “Ambuye akukomere mtima mwana wanga.”
30 And he hurried Joseph for they grew warm compassion his to brother his and he sought to weep and he went the inner room towards and he wept there.
Kenaka Yosefe anafulumira kutuluka chifukwa mtima wake unadzaza ndi chifundo cha mngʼono wake ndipo anafuna kulira. Tsono anakalowa mʼchipinda chakechake nakalira kumeneko.
31 And he washed face his and he came out and he restrained himself and he said set food.
Atatha kupukuta misozi mʼmaso mwake anatuluka, ndipo modzilimbitsa analamula kuti chakudya chibwere.
32 And they set for him to only him and to them to alone them and for the Egyptians who were eating with him to alone them for not they were able! the Egyptians to eat with the Hebrews food for [is] an abomination it to Egypt.
Anamupatsira Yosefe chakudya payekha, abale ake aja pawokha, ndiponso Aigupto amene ankadya pamodzi ndi iye nawonso pawokha. Izi zinali choncho chifukwa Aigupto ankanyansidwa kudya pamodzi ndi Ahebri.
33 And they sat down before him the firstborn according to birthright his and the young [brother] according to youth his and they looked in astonishment the men each to neighbor his.
Abale aja anawakhazika patsogolo pa Yosefe. Iwo anawakhazika monga mwa mabadwidwe awo kuyambira woyamba kubadwa mpaka wotsirizira; ndipo ankangoyangʼanitsitsana modabwa.
34 And someone took portions from with face his to them and it was great [the] portion of Benjamin more than [the] portions of all of them five hands and they drank and they became drunk with him.
Tsono ankawagawira chakudya kuchokera pa tebulo la Yosefe. Koma chakudya cha Benjamini chinkaposa cha ena onsewa kasanu. Motero anadya ndi kumwa mpaka kukhuta, ndipo anasangalala pamodzi ndi Yosefe.
