Genesis 43
1 And the derth waxed sore in the lande.
Alò, gwo grangou a te rèd nan tout peyi a.
2 And when they had eate vp that corne which they brought out of the lande of Egipte their father sayde vnto them: goo agayne and by vs a litle food.
Epi li te vin rive ke lè yo te fin manje sereyal ke yo te achte an Égypte la, papa yo te di yo: “Ale retounen, achte yon ti manje.”
3 Than sayde Iuda vnto him: the man dyd testifie vnto vs saynge: loke that ye see not my face excepte youre brother be with you.
Men Juda te pale avèk li. Li te di: “Nonm nan te menase nou ke: ‘Nou p ap wè figi m sof ke frè nou an avèk nou.’
4 Therfore yf thou wilt sende oure brother with vs we wyll goo and bye the food.
Si ou voye frè nou an avèk nou, nou va desann achte manje.
5 But yf thou wylt not sende him we wyll not goo: for the man sayde vnto vs: loke that ye see not my face excepte youre brother be with you.
Men si ou pa voye li, nou p ap desann. Paske nonm nan te di nou: ‘Nou p ap wè figi m sof ke frè nou an avèk nou.’”
6 And Israell sayde: wherfore delt ye so cruelly with me as to tell the man that ye had yet another brother?
Alò, Israël te di: “Poukisa ou maltrete m konsa, pou nou te di mesye a ke nou te gen yon lòt frè toujou?”
7 And they sayde: The man asked vs of oure kynred saynge: is youre father yet alyue? haue ye not another brother? And we tolde him acordynge to these wordes. How cowd we knowe that he wolde byd vs brynge oure brother downe with vs?
Men yo te di: “Mesye a te kesyone nou byen dirèk konsènan moun nan fanmi nou. Li te mande: ‘Èske papa nou toujou vivan? Èske nou gen yon lòt frè?’ Alò, nou te reponn kesyon li. Èske nou ta ka konnen ke li ta di: ‘Mennen frè nou an desann?’”
8 Than sayde Iuda vnto Israell his father: Send the lad with me and we wyll ryse and goo that we maye lyue and not dye: both we thou and also oure childern.
Juda te di a papa li, Israël: “Voye jènjan an avèk mwen. Nou va leve ale, pou nou kapab viv e pa mouri, nou menm, ansanm ak ou, ak pitit ou yo.
9 I wilbe suertie for him and of my handes requyre him. Yf I brynge him not to the and sett him before thine eyes than let me bere the blame for euer.
Mwen menm, mwen va garanti pou li. Ou kapab mete m responsab li. Si mwen pa mennen l tounen bò kote ou, pou m fè l chita devan ou, alò, ke mwen rete koupab devan ou pou tout tan.
10 For except we had made this tarieg: by this we had bene there twyse and come agayne.
Paske si nou pa t mize, asireman kounye a nou ta gen tan retounen de fwa deja.”
11 Than their father Israel sayde vnto the Yf it must nedes be so now: than do thus take of the best frutes of the lande in youre vesselles and brynge the man a present a curtesie bawlme and a curtesie of hony spyces and myrre dates and almondes.
Alò, papa yo, Israël te di yo: “Si sa oblije fèt, alò, fè l konsa: Pran kèk nan pi bèl pwodwi peyi a nan sak nou, pou pote desann vè nonm nan kòm kado; yon ti lwil, yon ti siwo myèl, yon ti gòm santi bon, myrr, grenn pistach fen avèk grenn zanmann.
12 And take as moch money more with you. And the money that was brought agayne in youre sackes take it agayne with you in youre handes peraduenture it was some ouersyghte.
Pran doub lajan nan men nou, e anplis, pran pou remèt nan men nou kòb ki te retounen nan bouch sak la. Petèt se te yon erè.
13 Take also youre brother with you and aryse and goo agayne to the man.
Pran frè nou an tou, e leve retounen vè mesye a.
14 And God almightie geue you mercie in the sighte of the man and send you youre other brother and also Be Iamin and I wilbe as a ma robbed of his childern.
Konsa, ke Bondye Toupwisan an kapab bannou gras nan zye mesye a, pou li kab lage bannou lòt frè nou an avèk Benjamin. Epi pou mwen, si mwen pèdi pitit mwen yo, mwen pèdi nèt.”
15 Thus toke they the present and twise so moch more money with them and Ben Iamin. And rose vp went downe to Egipte and presented them selfe to Ioseph.
Alò, mesye yo te pran kado sila yo, e yo te pran doub lajan nan men yo avèk Benjamin. Konsa, yo te leve desann an Égypte, e yo te kanpe devan Joseph.
16 When Ioseph sawe Ben Iamin with them he sayde to the ruelar of his house: brynge these men home and sley and make redie: for they shall dyne with me at none.
Lè Joseph te wè Benjamin avèk yo, li te di a chèf domestik lakay li a, “Mennen mesye yo nan kay la, touye yon bèt, e fè prepare l; paske mesye sa yo ap vin manje avèk mwen a midi a.”
17 And the man dyd as Ioseph bad and brought them in to Iosephs house.
Alò, nonm nan te fè sa ke Joseph te mande a, e li te mennen mesye yo lakay Joseph.
18 When they were brought to Iosephs house they were afrayde ad sayde: be cause of the money yt came in oure sackes mouthes at the first tyme are we brought to pyke a quarell with vs and to laye some thinge to oure charge: to brynge us in bondage and oure asses also.
Alò, mesye yo te byen pè, paske yo te mennen yo lakay Joseph. Konsa, yo te di: “Se akoz lajan ki te remèt nan sak yo premye fwa a, ke yo ap mennen nou la a, pou li kapab chache okazyon kont nou, pou tonbe sou nou, e pran nou kòm esklav avèk bourik nou yo.”
19 Therfore came they to the man that was the ruelar ouer Iosephs house and comened with him at the doore
Pou sa a, yo te vin pwoche chèf domestik la. Yo te pale ak li nan antre kay la,
20 and sayde: Sir we came hither at the first tyme to bye foode
e yo te di: “O mèt mwen, vrèman nou te desann premye fwa a pou achte manje,
21 and as we came to an Inne and opened oure sackes: beholde euery mannes money was in his sacke with full weghte: But we haue broght it agene with us
men sa te fè ke lè nou rive nan lojman nou, pou louvri sak nou, konsa, nou jwenn kòb chak moun nan bouch sak li! Tout kòb nou nèt! Konsa, nou te retounen pote li nan men nou.
22 and other mony haue we brought also in oure handes to bye foode but we can not tell who put oure money in oure sackes.
Nou te pote osi, lajan anplis nan men nou pou achte manje. Nou pa konnen kilès ki te mete kòb nou yo nan sak nou yo.”
23 And he sayde: be of good chere feare not: Youre God and the God of youre fathers hath put you that treasure in youre sackes for I had youre money. And he brought Simeon out to them
Li te di: “Rete anpè, nou pa bezwen pè. Bondye pa nou an e Bondye papa nou an te bannou trezò nan sak nou yo. Mwen te resevwa kòb nou an.” Epi li te mennen Siméon deyò bay yo.
24 ad led the into Iosephs house and gaue the water to washe their fete and gaue their asses prauender:
Epi nonm nan te mennen mesye yo antre lakay Joseph. Li te bay yo dlo, e yo te lave pye pa yo. Li te bay bourik yo manje.
25 And they made redie their present agaynst Ioseph came at none for they herde saye that they shulde dyne there.
Konsa, yo te prepare kado yo pou lè Joseph ta vin parèt a midi, paske yo te tande ke yo te gen pou manje la.
26 When Ioseph came home they brought the present in to the house to him which they had in their handes ad fell flat on the grounde befor him.
Lè Joseph te rive lakay li, yo te pote kado ki te nan men yo bò kote li nan kay la, e yo te bese atè devan li.
27 And he welcomed the curteously sainge: is youre father that old man which ye tolde me of in good health? and is he yet alyue?
Li te mande yo si tout bagay ale byen. Li te di: “Èske granmoun sou sila nou te pale m nan toujou vivan?”
28 they answered: thy servaunte oure father is in good health ad is yet alyue. And they bowed them selues and fell to the grounde.
Yo te di: “Sèvitè ou a, papa nou toujou byen; li toujou vivan.” Yo te bese ba pou bay respè.
29 And he lyfte vp his eyes and behelde his brother Ben Iamin his mothers sonne and sayde: is this youre yongest brother of whome ye sayde vnto me? And sayde: God be mercyfull vnto ye my sonne.
Lè li te leve zye li, li te wè frè li, Benjamin, fis a manman l lan, e li te di: “Èske se sila a ki pi jenn frè nou ke nou te pale m nan?” Konsa, li te di: “Ke Bondye kapab fè ou gras, fis mwen.”
30 And Ioseph made hast (for his hert dyd melt apon his brother) and soughte for to wepe and entred in to his chambre for to wepe there.
Konsa, Joseph te fè vit ale deyò, paske li te tèlman touche byen fon pa prezans frè li yo, e li te chache yon kote pou l ta kab kriye. Li te antre nan chanm li an, e li te kriye la.
31 And he wasshed his face and came out and refrayned himselfe and bad sett bread on the table
Alò, li te lave figi li, e li te vin parèt deyò. Li te kontwole tèt li, e te di: “Sèvi manje a.”
32 And they prepared for him by himselfe and for them by them selues and for the Egiptians which ate with him by them selues because the Egyptians may not eate bread with the Hebrues for that is an abhomynacyon vnto the Egiptians.
Epi yo te sèvi Joseph nan yon kote pou kont li, e lòt Ejipsyen yo pou kont yo, paske yon Ejipsyen pa t kapab manje avèk yon Ebre. Paske sa se yon abominasyon pou Ejipsyen yo.
33 And they satt before him: the eldest acordynge vnto his age and the yongest acordyng vnto his youth. And the men marveled amonge them selves.
Alò, yo te chita devan li, premye ne a, selon dwa nesans li, pi jenn nan selon jennès li, e mesye yo t ap gade youn lòt byen etone.
34 And they broughte rewardes vnto them from before him: but Ben Iamins parte was fyue tymes so moch as any of theirs. And they ate and they dronke and were dronke wyth him.
Li te pran pòsyon manje pa yo sòti nan pwòp tab li, men pòsyon Benjamin an te senk fwa plis ke tout lòt yo. Epi yo te manje e bwè, e fè kè kontan avèk li.
