Genesis 47
1 Then Joseph came and told Pharaoh, and said, My father and my brethren, and their flocks, and their herds, and all that they have, have come from the land of Canaan; and, behold, they are in the land of Goshen.
Yoosefis gara Faraʼoon dhaqee, “Abbaan kootii fi obboloonni koo bushaayee isaanii, loon isaaniitii fi waan qaban hunda fudhatanii biyya Kanaʼaan dhufanii kunoo biyya Gooshen jiru” jedhee itti hime.
2 And he took some of his brethren, even five men, and presented them to Pharaoh.
Innis obboloota isaa keessaa nama shan filatee Faraʼoonitti dhiʼeesse.
3 And Pharaoh said to his brethren, What is your occupation? And they said to Pharaoh, Thy servants are shepherds, both we, and also our fathers.
Faraʼoonis, “Hojiin keessan maali?” jedhee obboloota Yoosef gaafate. Isaanis, “Nu garboonni kee akkuma abbootii keenyaa tiksoota” jedhanii deebisaniif.
4 They said moreover to Pharaoh, We have come to sojourn in the land; for thy servants have no pasture for their flocks; for the famine is severe in the land of Canaan: now therefore, we pray thee, let thy servants dwell in the land of Goshen.
Akkanas jedhaniin; “Sababii beelli biyya Kanaʼaanitti cimee bushaayeen garboota keetii waan dheedan dhabaniif nu yeroo gabaabaa as jiraachuu dhufne. Akka nu garboonni kee biyya Gooshen keessa jiraannuuf maaloo nuu eeyyami.”
5 And Pharaoh spoke to Joseph, saying, Thy father and thy brethren have come to thee:
Faraʼoonis Yoosefiin akkana jedhe; “Abbaan keetii fi obboloonni kee siif dhufaniiru;
6 The land of Egypt is before thee; in the best of the land make thy father and brethren to dwell; in the land of Goshen let them dwell: and if thou knowest any able men among them, then make them rulers over my cattle.
lafti Gibxi fuuluma kee dura jira; abbaa keetii fi obboloota kee iddoo lafa hundumaa caalu irra qubachiisi. Isaan biyya Gooshen keessa haa jiraatan. Ati yoo namoota isaan keessaa dandeettii qaban beekte loon koo irratti itti gaafatamtoota isaan godhi.”
7 And Joseph brought in Jacob his father, and set him before Pharaoh: and Jacob blessed Pharaoh.
Ergasii Yoosef abbaa isaa Yaaqoobin fidee fuula Faraʼoon duratti dhiʼeesse. Erga Yaaqoob Faraʼoonin eebbisee booddee,
8 And Pharaoh said to Jacob, How old art thou?
Faraʼoon, “Umuriin kee hammam?” jedhee isa gaafate.
9 And Jacob said to Pharaoh, The days of the years of my pilgrimage are an hundred and thirty years: few and evil have been the days of the years of my life, nor have they attained to the days of the years of the life of my fathers in the days of their pilgrimage.
Yaaqoobis Faraʼooniin akkana jedhe; “Barri ani keessummummaan jiraadhe waggaa dhibbaa tokkoo fi soddoma. Baroonni koos muraasa; hamaadhas; innis bara abbootiin koo keessummummaan jiraatan sanaan wal qixxee miti.”
10 And Jacob blessed Pharaoh, and went out from before Pharaoh.
Kana booddee, Yaaqoob Faraʼoonin eebbisee fuula isaa duraa gad baʼe.
11 And Joseph placed 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.
Yoosefis akkuma Faraʼoon isa ajajetti abbaa isaatii fi obboloota isaa Gibxi keessa qubachiise; lafa lafa hunda caalu, aanaa Raamsee handhuuraa godhee isaanii kenne.
12 And Joseph nourished his father, and his brethren, and all his father’s household, with bread, according to their families.
Akkasumas Yoosef abbaa isaatiif, obboloota isaatii fi warra mana abbaa isaa jiran hundaaf akkuma baayʼina ijoollee isaaniitti midhaan kenne.
13 And there was no bread in all the land; for the famine was very severe, so that the land of Egypt and all the land of Canaan fainted by reason of the famine.
Waan beelli akka malee cimeef biyyattii guutuu keessa wanni nyaatamu hin jiru ture; sababii beela sanaatiinis Gibxii fi Kanaʼaan akka malee miidhaman.
14 And Joseph gathered all the money that was found in the land of Egypt, and in the land of Canaan, for the grain which they bought: and Joseph brought the money into Pharaoh’s house.
Yoosefis kaffaltii midhaan namoonni bitachaa turan sanaa maallaqa biyya Gibxii fi Kanaʼaan keessatti argamu hunda walitti qabee masaraa Faraʼoonitti galche.
15 And when money failed in the land of Egypt, and in the land of Canaan, all the Egyptians came to Joseph, and said, Give us bread: for why should we die in thy presence? for the money faileth.
Maallaqni warra Gibxii fi warra Kanaʼaan dhumnaan warri Gibxi hundi gara Yoosef dhufanii, “Midhaan nuu kenni. Nu maaliif fuula kee duratti duuna? Maallaqni keenya dhumeera” jedhan.
16 And Joseph said, Give your cattle; and I will give you for your cattle, if money hath failed.
Yoosef immoo, “Erga maallaqni keessan dhumee horii keessan fidaa; qooda horii keessanii ani midhaan isiniif nan kenna” jedhe.
17 And they brought their cattle to Joseph: and Joseph gave them bread in exchange for horses, and for the flocks, and for the cattle of the herds, and for the donkeys: and he fed them with bread for all their cattle for that year.
Isaanis horii isaanii Yoosefitti fidan; Yoosefis qooda fardeen isaanii, qooda bushaayee isaanii, qooda loowwan isaaniitii fi qooda harroota isaanii midhaan kenneef. Innis bara sana geeddaraa horii isaanii hundaa midhaan isaan soore.
18 When that year was ended, they came to him the second year, and said to him, We will not hide from my lord, how that our money is spent; my lord also hath our herds of cattle; there is nothing left in the sight of my lord, but our bodies, and our lands:
Waggaan sun dhumnaan jarri waggaa itti aanutti gara isaa dhufanii akkana jedhan; “Erga maallaqni keenya dhumee horiin keenya kan kee taʼee as, yaa gooftaa keenya akka dhagna keenyaa fi lafa keenya malee wanni tokko iyyuu nuuf hin hafin nu gooftaa keenya jalaa hin dhoksinu.
19 Why shall we die before thy eyes, both we and our land? buy us and our land for bread, and we and our land will be servants to Pharaoh: and give us seed, that we may live, and not die, that the land be not desolate.
Nu maaliif fuula kee duratti duuna? Nuu fi lafti keenyas maaliif badna? Nuu fi lafa keenya fudhadhuutii qooda isaa midhaan nuuf kenni. Nu lafa keenya wajjin Faraʼooniif ni garboomna. Akka nu duʼa jalaa baanee jiraannuuf, akka laftis duwwaa hin hafneef sanyii nuuf kenni.”
20 And Joseph bought all the land of Egypt for Pharaoh; for the Egyptians sold every man his field, because the famine prevailed over them: so the land became Pharaoh’s.
Yoosefis lafa biyya Gibxi hundumaa Faraʼooniif bite. Warri Gibxi hundi waan beelli isaanitti cimeef lafa isaanii gurguran; laftis kan Faraʼoon taʼe;
21 And as for the people, he removed them to cities from one end of the borders of Egypt even to its other end.
Yoosefis daangaa biyya Gibxi tokko irraa hamma daangaa kaaniitti saba garbummaa jala galche.
22 Only the land of the priests bought he not; for the priests had a portion assigned them by Pharaoh, and ate their portion which Pharaoh gave them: therefore they sold not their lands.
Lafti inni hin bitin lafa lubootaa qofa ture; kunis sababii isaan Faraʼoon irraa qooda argatanii fi sababii qooda Faraʼoon isaaniif kennu sanaan jiraataniif. Kanaafuu isaan lafa isaanii hin gurgurre.
23 Then Joseph said to the people, Behold, I have bought you this day and your land for Pharaoh: lo, here is seed for you, and ye shall sow the land.
Yoosefis saba sanaan akkana jedhe; “Kunoo ani harʼa isinii fi lafa keessan Faraʼooniif biteera. Kunoo lafatti sanyii facaafadhaa.
24 And it shall come to pass in the harvest, that ye shall give the fifth part to Pharaoh, and four parts shall be your own, for seed of the field, and for your food, and for them of your households, and for food for your little ones.
Yommuu midhaan galfamutti harka shan keessaa harka tokko Faraʼooniif ni kennitu. Harka afran hafe immoo sanyii facaafattan, nyaata ofii keessanii, nyaata warra mana keessan jiraataniitii fi nyaata ijoollee keessanii godhattu.”
25 And they said, Thou hast saved our lives: let us find grace in the sight of my lord, and we will be Pharaoh’s servants.
Jarris, “Ati duʼa nu oolchiteerta; nu fuula gooftaa keenyaa duratti fudhatama haa argannuu malee Faraʼooniif garboota ni taana” jedhan.
26 And Joseph made it a law over the land of Egypt to this day, that Pharaoh should have the fifth part; except the land of the priests only, which became not Pharaoh’s.
Yoosefis akkasiin akka harka shan keessaa harki tokko kan Faraʼoon taʼuuf Gibxi keessatti seera lafaa dhaabe; seerri sun hamma harʼaatti illee ittiin hojjetamaa jira. Lafa lubootaa qofattu utuu kan Faraʼoon hin taʼin hafe.
27 And Israel dwelt in the land of Egypt, in the country of Goshen; and they had possessions in it, and grew, and multiplied exceedingly.
Israaʼeloonnis Gibxi keessa kutaa biyya Gooshen keessa qubatan. Achittis qabeenya argatan; horaniis guddaa baayʼatan.
28 And Jacob lived in the land of Egypt seventeen years: so the whole age of Jacob was an hundred and forty and seven years.
Yaaqoob waggaa kudha torba biyya Gibxi keessa jiraate; barri jireenya isaas waggaa dhibba tokkoo afurtamii torba ture.
29 And the time drew near that Israel must die: and he called his son Joseph, and said to him, If now I have found grace in thy sight, put, I pray thee, thy hand under my thigh, and deal kindly and truly with me; bury me not, I pray thee, in Egypt:
Israaʼelis yeroon duʼa isaa dhiʼaannaan ilma isaa Yoosefin ofitti waamee akkana jedheen; “Yoo ani fuula kee duratti fudhatama argadhe, mee harka kee gudeeda koo jala kaaʼiitii akka gaarummaa na argisiiftuu fi akka naaf amanamtu waadaa naaf seeni. Gibxitti na hin awwaalin;
30 But I will lie with my fathers, and thou shalt carry me out of Egypt, and bury me in their buryingplace. And he said, I will do as thou hast said.
yeroo ani abbootii koo wajjin boqodhutti biyya Gibxii na baasii iddoo isaan itti awwaalamanitti na awwaali.” Innis, “Akkuma ati jette nan godha” jedhe.
31 And he said, Swear to me. And he swore to him. And Israel bowed himself upon the bed’s head.
Israaʼelis, “Naa kakadhu” jedheen. Yoosefis ni kakateef. Israaʼel immoo mataa ulee isaatti irkatee sagade.
