Genesis 42
1 When someone told Jacob that there was grain in Egypt that people could buy, he said to his sons, “(Why do you just sit there looking at each other?/Do not just sit there looking at each other!) [RHQ] We need some grain!”
Ita, naammoan ni Jacob nga adda bukel idiay Egipto. Kinunana kadagiti putotna a lallaki. “Apay ta agkikinnitakayo?”
2 He said to them, “Someone told me that there is grain for sale in Egypt. Go down there and buy some for us, in order that we will not die!”
Kinunana, “Dumngegkayo, nangngegko nga adda bukel idiay Egipto. Sumalogkayo sadiay ket gumatangkayo iti agpaay kadatayo manipud sadiay tapno agbiagtayo a saan ket a matay.”
3 So Joseph’s ten [older] brothers went down to Egypt to buy some grain.
Simmalog ngarud dagiti sangapulo a kakabsat ni Jose tapno gumatang iti bukel manipud iti Egipto.
4 But Jacob did not send Benjamin, Joseph’s [younger] brother, to go with the others, because he was afraid/worried that something terrible might happen to him like what happened to Joseph.
Ngem ni Benjamin a kabsat ni Jose ket saanna a pinasurot kadagiti kakabsatna, ta kinunana, “Amangan no adda dakes a mapasamak kenkuana.”
5 So Jacob’s other sons went down from Canaan to Egypt to buy grain, and others from there went too, because there was a famine in Canaan also.
Immay met dagiti annak ni Israel tapno gumatang malaksid pay kadagiti immay, ta adda met panagbisin iti daga ti Canaan.
6 At that time Joseph was the governor of Egypt. He was the one who sold grain to people who came from all over Egypt and from many other countries [HYP] to buy grain. So when Joseph’s brothers arrived, [they were told that it was necessary for them to talk with Joseph. So they went to him and] prostrated themselves before him with their faces to the ground.
Ita, ni Jose ti gobernador iti entero a daga. Isuna ti aglaklako kadagiti amin a tattao ti daga. Immay dagiti kakabsat ni Jose ket nagpaklebda iti daga.
7 As soon as Joseph saw his brothers, he recognized them. But he pretended that he did not know them. He spoke harshly to them, saying, “Where do you come from?” One of them replied, “We have come from Canaan, to buy some grain.”
Nakita ni Jose dagiti kakabsatna ket nabigbigna ida, ngem nagpammarang isuna kadakuada ken nagsao isuna iti nagubsang kadakuada. Kinunana kadakuada, “Sadinno ti naggapuanyo?” Kinunada, “Naggapukkami iti daga ti Canaan tapno gumatang iti taraon.”
8 Although Joseph recognized his brothers, they did not recognize him.
Nabigbig ni Jose dagiti kakabsatna ngem saanda a nabigbig isuna.
9 And then Joseph remembered what he had dreamed about them many years previously. [But he decided not to tell them yet that he was their younger brother]. He said to them, “You are spies! You have come to find out whether we will be able to defend ourselves [if you attack us]!”
Nalagip ni Jose dagiti tagtagainepna maipapan kadakuada. Kinunana kadakuada, “Espiakayo. Immaykayo tapno kitaenyo ti saan a naguardia-an a paset ti daga.”
10 One of them replied, “No, sir! We have come to buy grain.
Kinunada kenkuana, “Saan, apo. Immay dagitoy nga adipenmo a gumatang ti taraon.
11 We are all sons of one man. We are honest men, not spies.”
Putotnakami amin ti maymaysa a tao. Mapagtalkankami a lallaki. Saan nga espia dagitoy adipenmo.”
12 He said to them, “[I do not believe you]. You have come just to see whether we would be able to defend ourselves if we were attacked!”
Kinunana kadakuada, “Saan, ngem immaykayo tapno kitaenyo ti saan a naguardia-an a paset ti daga.”
13 But one of them replied, “No, that is not true! Originally there were twelve of us who were brothers, the sons of one man. Our younger brother is with our father. One [younger] brother has died. [EUP]”
Kinunada, “Sangapulo ket dua nga agkakabsat dagitoy adipenmo, putotnakami ti maysa a tao idiay daga ti Canaan. Kitaem, kadua ita ti amami ti inaudi a kabsatmi, ket awanen iti daytoy a biag ti maysa pay a kabsatmi.”
14 Joseph replied, “[You are lying! I think] it is just as I told you. You are spies!
Kinuna ni Jose kadakuada, “Kas nakunakon; espiakayo.
15 But this is how I will determine whether what you are saying is true. I think that as surely as the king lives, you are spies. And you will not leave this place until your youngest brother comes here!
Babaen iti daytoy masubokkayo. Isapatak iti nagan ti Faraon a saankayo a pumanaw ditoy, malaksid no umay ditoy ti inaudi a kabsatyo.
16 Send one of your group to go and get your younger brother and bring him here. I will put the rest of you in prison, in order that I may test what you have said to find out whether what you are telling me is true. If the one who goes does not bring your younger brother here, then, just as surely as the king lives, it will be clear that you are lying and that you are spies.”
Mangibaonkayo iti maysa kadakayo ket mapanna alaen ti kabsatyo. Maibaludkayo tapno masubok dagiti imbagayo, no adda met laeng kinapudno kadakayo, ta no saan, isapatak iti nagan ti Faraon, awan duadua nga espiakayo.”
17 Then Joseph put them all in prison for three days.
Ket imbaludna amin ida iti tallo nga aldaw.
18 On the third day, Joseph went to the prison and said to them, “I am a man who fears that God [will punish me if I do not do what I promise]. So do what I tell you, and I will spare your lives.
Iti maikatlo nga aldaw, kinuna ni Jose kadakuada, “Aramidenyo daytoy ket agbiagkayo, ta adda panagbutengko iti Dios.
19 If you are honest men, let one of your brothers stay here in prison, and the rest of you can take some grain back to your families who are very hungry because of the famine.
No mapagtalkankayo a lallaki, mabati ngarud ti maysa kadakayo iti daytoy a pagbaludan, ngem mapankayo, mangawitkayo kadagiti bukel para iti panagbisin kadagiti balbalayyo.
20 But if you come back here again, you must bring your youngest brother to me, so that you can prove that what you told me is true, and as a result I will not have you executed.” So they agreed to do that.
Iyegyo ti inaudi a kabsatyo kaniak iti kasta ket mapaneknekan dagiti imbagayo ket saankayo a matay.” Kasta ngarud ti inaramidda.
21 They said to each other, “It is surely because of what we did to our [younger] brother that (we are being punished/God is punishing us)! We saw that he [SYN] was very distressed when he pleaded with us not to harm him. But we did not pay any attention to him, and that is why we are having this trouble!”
Kinunada iti tunggal maysa, “Pudno a nagbidduttayo maipapan iti inaramidtayo iti kabsattayo ta nakitatayo ti ladingit ti kararuana idi nagpakaasi kadatayo ngem saantayo a dimngeg. Ngarud naisubli kadatayo daytoy a ladingit.
22 Reuben said to them, “I told you not to harm the boy [RHQ], but you did not pay attention to what I said! Now we are being (paid back/punished) for killing him [MTY]!”
Simmungbat ni Ruben kadakuada, “Saan kadi nga imbagak kadakayo, 'Saankayo nga agaramid iti basol maibusor iti ubing,' ngem saankayonto met gamin a dimngeg? Ita kitaenyo, maisidsidirenkadatayo ti darana.”
23 While they were talking with Joseph, they were speaking through (an interpreter/someone who knew their language and the Egyptian language), but when they said these things among themselves, they were speaking in their own language, and they did not know that Joseph could understand their language, and that he could understand what they were saying.
Saanda nga ammo a naawatan ida ni Jose, ta adda mangipatpatarus iti nagbabaetanda.
24 [Because of what they said, Joseph realized that they admitted that what they had done to him many years previously was wrong]. He could not keep from crying, [and he did not want them to see him crying], so he left them and went outside the room and began to cry. But then he returned to them and talked to them again. Then he took Simeon, and while they were watching, he told his servants to tie him up. He left Simeon in the prison and told the others that they could go.
Pinanawanna ida ket nagsangit. Kalpsanna, nagsubli isuna iti ayanda ket nagsao kadakuada. Innalana ni Simeon kadakuada ket pinaibaludna iti imatangda.
25 Joseph told his servants to fill the men’s sacks with grain, but he also told them to put the money that each one had paid for the grain in the top of his sack. He also told them to give them food to eat along the way. After the servants did those things for Joseph’s older brothers,
Ket binilin ni Jose dagiti adipenna a punoenda iti bukbukel dagiti sako dagiti kakabsatna, ken isublida ti kuarta ti tunggal maysa a lalaki iti sakona, ken ipaayanda ida iti kasapulanda iti panagdaliasatda. Kasta ngarud ti naaramid para kadakuada.
26 his older brothers loaded the sacks of grain on their donkeys and left.
Inkarga dagiti agkakabsat dagiti awitda a bukel kadagiti asnoda ket pimmanawda manipud sadiay.
27 At the place where they stopped to sleep that night, one of them opened his sack to get some grain for his donkey. He was amazed to see his money in the top of the sack.
Iti lugar a naginanaanda, maysa kadakuada ti nanglukat iti sakona tapno pakanenna ti asnona ket nakitana ti kuartana. Adda daytoy iti ngarab ti sakona.
28 He exclaimed to his brothers, “Someone has returned my money! Here it is in my sack!” They started shaking with fear, and said to each other, “What is this that God has done to us?”
Kinunana kadagiti kakabsatna, “Naisubli ti kuartak. Kitaenyo daytoy; adda daytoy iti sakok.” Ket uray la agkibbakibbayo ti pusoda ken agpigpigergerda a nagkikinnita. Kinunada, “Ania daytoy nga inaramid ti Dios kadatayo?”
29 When they returned to their father in Canaan land, they told him all that had happened to them. One of them said,
Napanda kenni Jacob nga amada nga adda iti daga ti Canaan ket imbagada kenkuana ti amin a napasamak kadakuada. Kinunada,
30 “The man who governs the whole land of Egypt talked very harshly to us. He acted toward us as though we were spying on his country.
“Ti lalaki, nga apo ti daga ket sigugubsang a nakisarita kadakami ken impagarupna nga espiakami iti daga.
31 But we told him, ‘We are honest men! We are not spies.
Imbagami kenkuana, 'Mapagtalkankami a lallaki. saankami nga espia.
32 Originally there were twelve of us who were brothers, the sons of one father. One has died [EUP], and our youngest brother is with our father in Canaan.’
Sangapulo ket dua kami nga agkakabsat, putotnakami ti amami. Natayen ti maysa kadakami ken ti inaudi a kabsatmi ket adda ita iti ayan ti amami idiay daga ti Canaan.'
33 The man who is the governor of the land [did not believe us], so he said to us, ‘This is how I will know if you are truly honest men: Leave one of your brothers here with me. Then the rest of you can take some grain for your families that are starving from hunger and go.
Ti lalaki nga apo ti daga, kinunana kadakami, 'Babaen iti daytoy ket maammoak no mapagtalkankayo a lallaki. Ibatiyo ti maysa a kabsatyo kaniak, mangalakayo iti bukel para iti panagbisin kadagiti balayyo, ket mapankayo.
34 But when you return, bring your youngest brother to me, in order that I will know that you are not spies, but instead, that you are honest men. Then I will release your brother for you. And then you can buy whatever you want in this country.’”
Iyegyo ti inaudi a kabsatyo kaniak. Iti kasta ket mapaneknekak a saankayo nga espia, ngem ketdi, mapagtalkankayo a lallaki. Ket wayawayaakto ti kabsatyo ket mabalinkayo a gumatang ken aglako iti daytoy a daga.”'
35 As they were emptying their sacks, they were surprised that in each man’s sack was his pouch of money! When they and their father saw all the pouches of money, they were frightened.
Napasamak nga idi imbukbokda dagiti sakoda ket adtoy, adda iti sako ti tunggal maysa ti nakasupot a kuartada. Idi nakitada ken ti amada dagiti nakasupot a kuartada, nagbutengda.
36 Their father Jacob said to them, “You have caused two of my children to be taken from me! Joseph is dead, and Simeon is gone! And now you want to take Benjamin from me! It is I who am suffering because of all these things that are happening!”
Kinuna ti amada a ni Jacob, kadakuada, “Pinagladingitdak kadagiti putotko. Natayen ni Jose, awanen ni Simeon ken iyadayoyo ni Benjamin. Maibusor kaniak amin dagitoy a banbanag.”
37 Reuben said to his father, “I will be responsible for Benjamin. [I will take him to Egypt and] bring him back to you. Let me take care of him. If I do not bring Benjamin back to you, you may kill both of my sons.”
Nagsao ni Ruben iti amana, a kunana, “Uray patayemto dagiti dua a putotko a lallaki no saanko a maisubli ni Benjamin kenka. Italekmo isuna kaniak ket isublikto isuna kenka.”
38 But Jacob said, “No, I will not let my son go down there with you. His [older] brother is dead, and he is the only [one of my wife Rachel’s] sons who is left! If something harms him while you are traveling, you would cause me, a gray-haired old man, to die because of sorrow.” (Sheol h7585)
Kinuna ni Jacob, “Saan a sumurot a sumalog kadakayo ti anakko. Ta natayen ti kabsatna ket isuna laengen ti nabati. No adda dakes a mapasamak kenkuana iti dalanyo, ipandakto, siak a purawen ti buokna, iti sheol gapu iti ladingit.” (Sheol h7585)
