< Genesis 42 >

1 Forsothe Jacob herde that foodis weren seeld in Egipt, and he seide to hise sones, Whi ben ye necgligent?
Yakobo atamva kuti ku Igupto kuli tirigu, anati kwa ana ake, “Nʼchifukwa chiyani mukungoyangʼanana wina ndi mnzake?
2 Y herde that wheete is seeld in Egipt, go ye doun, and bie ye necessaries to vs, that we moun lyue, and be not wastid bi nedynesse.
Ine ndamva kuti ku Igupto kuli tirigu. Pitani kumeneko mukatigulireko kuti tisafe ndi njala.”
3 Therfor ten britheren of Joseph yeden doun to bie wheete in Egipt,
Choncho abale ake khumi a Yosefe anapita kukagula tirigu ku Igupto.
4 and Beniamyn was withholdun of Jacob at hoome, that seide to hise britheren, Lest perauenture in the weie he suffre ony yuel.
Koma Yakobo sanamulole Benjamini mngʼono wake wa Yosefe kuti apite nawo chifukwa anaopa kuti choyipa chingamuchitikire.
5 Sotheli thei entriden in to the lond of Egipt, with othere men that yeden to bie; forsothe hungur was in the lond of Canaan.
Choncho ana a Israeli aja anapita pamodzi ndi gulu la anzawo kukagula tirigu pakuti ku Kanaani kunalinso njala.
6 And Joseph was prince of Egipt, and at his wille whetis weren seeld to puplis. And whanne hise britheren hadden worschipid hym,
Pakuti Yosefe anali nduna yayikulu yolamulira dziko la Igupto, ndiye kuti analinso amene ankagulitsa tirigu kwa anthu onse. Choncho abale ake a Yosefe nawonso anabwera, ndipo anamugwadira pansi.
7 and he hadde knowe hem, he spak hardere as to aliens, and axide hem, Fro whennus camen ye? Whiche answeriden, Fro the lond of Canaan, that we bie necessaries to lyiflode.
Yosefe atangowaona abale ake anawazindikira, koma ananamizira kukhala ngati mlendo nawayankhula mwaukali kuwafunsa kuti, “Mwachokera kuti?” Iwo anayankha, “Ku dziko la Kanaani, tikudzagula chakudya.”
8 And netheles he knewe the britheren, and he was not knowun of hem,
Ngakhale Yosefe anawazindikira abale ake, koma iwo sanamuzindikire.
9 and he bithouyte on the dremys whiche he seiy sumtyme. And he seide to hem, Ye ben aspieris, ye camen to se the feblere thingis of the lond.
Pamenepo anakumbukira maloto aja amene analota za iwo ndipo anati, “Inu ndinu akazitape! Mwabwera kudzazonda dziko lathu kuti muone pamene palibe chitetezo.”
10 Whiche seiden, Lord, it is not so, but thi seruauntis camen to bie metis;
Iwo anayankha, “Ayi mbuye wathu, antchito anufe tabwera kudzagula chakudya.
11 alle we ben the sones of o man, we comen pesible, and thi seruauntis ymaginen not ony yuel.
Tonse ndife ana a munthu mmodzi. Ndife antchito anu okhulupirika osati akazitape.”
12 To `whiche he answeride, It is in other maner, ye camen to se the feble thingis of the lond.
Iye anawawuza kuti, “Ayi! Inu mwabwera kudzaona pamene palibe chitetezo mʼdziko muno.”
13 And thei seiden, `We twelue britheren, thi seruauntis, ben sones of o man in the lond of Canaan; the leeste is with oure fadir, an other is not `on erthe.
Koma iwo anayankha, “Tinalipo ana aamuna khumi ndi awiri. Abambo athu ndi mmodzi, ndipo kwathu ndi ku Kanaani. Panopo wotsiriza ali ndi abambo athu ndipo wina anamwalira.”
14 This it is, he seide, that Y spak to you,
Yosefe anawawuza kuti, “Ndi momwe ndaneneramo: Inu ndinu akazitape.
15 ye ben aspieris, riyt now Y schal take experience of you, bi the helthe of Farao ye schulen not go fro hennus, til youre leeste brother come; sende ye oon of you,
Ndiye ndikuyesani motere: Ine ndikulumbira pali Farao ndithu, inuyo simudzachoka malo ano mpaka wotsirizayo atabwera kuno.
16 that he brynge hym, forsothe ye schulen be in boondis, til tho thingis that ye seiden ben preued, whether tho ben false ether trewe; ellis, bi the helthe of Farao, ye ben aspieris.
Tumizani mmodzi wa inu akamutenge mʼbale wanuyo ndipo ena nonsenu musungidwa mʼndende, kuti titsimikize ngati zimene mukunenazi ndi zoona. Apo ayi, pali Farao ndithu, inu ndinu akazitape!”
17 Therfor he bitook hem to kepyng thre daies; sotheli in the thridde dai,
Ndipo onse anawayika mʼndende kwa masiku atatu.
18 whanne thei weren led out of prisoun, he seide, Do ye that that Y seide, and ye schulen lyue, for Y drede God;
Pa tsiku lachitatu Yosefe anawawuza kuti, “Popeza ine ndimaopa Mulungu, ndipo inuyo ngati mukufuna kukhala ndi moyo muchite izi:
19 if ye ben pesible, o brother of you be boundun in prisoun; forsothe go ye, and bere wheetis, whiche ye bouyten,
Ngati muli anthu achilungamo, mmodzi wa inu atsale mʼndende, pamene ena nonse mupite kwanu kuti muwatengere chakudya anthu akwanu kuli njalako.
20 in to youre housis, and brynge ye youre leeste brother to me, that Y may preue youre wordis, and ye die not. Thei diden as he seide,
Mukabwere naye kuno mngʼono wanu wotsirizayo kuti titsimikizire zimene munanena kuti musafe.” Ndipo anachita zomwezo.
21 and thei spaken togidere, Skilfuli we suffren these thingis, for we synneden ayens oure brother, and we seiyen the anguysch of his soule, while he preiede vs, and we herden not; herfore this tribulacioun cometh on vs.
Iwo anati kwa wina ndi mnzake, “Ndithu ife tinalakwira mʼbale wathu uja popeza kuti ngakhale tinaona kuvutika kwake ndi kumva kulira kwake pamene ankatidandaulira kuti timuchitire chifundo, koma ife sitinamvere. Nʼchifukwa chake masautso awa atigwera.”
22 Of which oon, Ruben, seide, Whether Y seide not to yow, Nyle ye do synne ayens the child, and ye herden not me? lo! his blood is souyt.
Rubeni anayankha, “Kodi sindinakuwuzeni kuti musamuchite kanthu mnyamata uja? Koma inu simunamvere! Tsopano tikulandira malipiro a magazi ake.”
23 Sotheli thei wisten not that Joseph vndirstood, for he spak to hem by interpretour.
Koma sanadziwe kuti Yosefe ankawamva popeza kuti ankagwiritsa ntchito wotanthauzira poyankhula naye.
24 And he turnede awei hym silf a litil and wepte; and he turnede ayen, and spak to hem.
Yosefe anapita pambali payekha kukalira. Kenaka anabweranso nadzayankhula nawo. Iye anatenga Simeoni namumanga iwo akuona.
25 And he took Symeon, and boond hym, while thei weren present; and he comaundide the mynystris, that thei schulden fille her sackis with wheete, and that thei schulden putte the money `of alle in her baggis, and ouer this yyue metis in the weie; whiche diden so.
Yosefe analamula kuti awadzazire matumba awo ndi tirigu, awayikiremo ndalama zawo momwemo ndiponso awapatse chakudya cha panjira. Izi anawachitiradi.
26 And thei `baren wetis on her assis, and yeden forth,
Abale a Yosefe aja anasenzetsa abulu awo tirigu amene anagula uja ndipo ananyamuka ulendo wawo.
27 and whanne the sak of oon was opened that he schulde yyue meete to the werk beeste in the yn, he bihelde the money in the mouth of the bagge,
Atafika pamalo pena poti agone, mmodzi mwa iwo anatsekula thumba lake kuti atapemo chakudya cha bulu wake. Atangomasula anaona kuti ndalama zake zili pakamwa pa thumba.
28 and seide to his britheren, My monei is yoldun to me, lo! it is had in the bagge; and thei weren astonyed, and troblid, and seiden togidere, What thing is this that God hath doon to us.
Iye anati kwa abale akewo, “Ndalama zanga andibwezera, izi zili mʼthumba mwangamu.” Mitima yawo inachita ngati yachokamo ndipo anali ndi mantha ambiri, nati, “Ndi chiyani chimene Mulungu watichitira?”
29 And thei camen to Jacob, her fadir, in the loond of Canaan, and telden to hym alle thingis that bifelden to hem, and seiden,
Atafika kwa abambo awo Yakobo mʼdziko la Kanaani anafotokoza zonse zimene zinawachitikira nati,
30 The lord of the lond spak harde to vs, and gesside that we weren aspieris of the prouynce;
“Nduna yayikulu ya mʼdzikomo inatiyankhula mwa ukali kwambiri ndipo inkatiyesa kuti ndife akazitape.
31 to whom we answeriden, We ben pesible, nether we purposen ony tresouns;
Koma tinamuwuza kuti, ‘Ndife anthu woona mtima osati akazitape.
32 we ben twelue britheren, gendrid of o fadir, oon is not `on erthe, the leeste dwellith with the fadir in the lond of Canaan.
Ife tonse tinalipo ana aamuna khumi ndi awiri, abambo mmodzi. Mmodzi anamwalira, ndipo wamngʼono ali ndi abambo athu ku Kanaani.’”
33 And he seide to vs, Thus Y schal preue that ye ben pesible; leeffe ye o brother of you with me, and take ye metis nedeful to youre housis, and go ye, and brynge ye to me youre leeste brother,
Ndipo nduna ija inati kwa ife, “Kuti ndidziwedi kuti ndinu anthu owona mtima muchite izi: Mmodzi mwa inu atsale ndi ine kuno, ndipo enanu mutenge chakudya ndi kubwerera kwanu kumene kuli njalako.
34 that Y wite that ye ben not aspieris, and that ye moun resseyue this brother which is holdun in boondis, and that fro thennus forth ye haue licence to bie what thingis ye wolen.
Koma mundibweretsere wotsirizayo kuti ndidziwedi kuti sindinu akazitape koma anthu achilungamo. Kenaka ndidzakubwezerani mʼbale wanuyu ndipo mukhoza kuchita malonda mʼdzikoli.”
35 While these thingis weren seide, whanne alle schedden out wheetis, thei founden money boundun in `the mouth of sackis. And whanne alle togidere weren aferd,
Pamene amakhuthula matumba awo a tirigu aliyense anapeza kuti kathumba kake ka ndalama kali momwemo. Ataona zimenezi, iwo pamodzi ndi abambo awo anachita mantha kwambiri.
36 the fadir Jacob seide, Ye han maad me to be with out children; Joseph is not alyue, Symeon is holdun in bondis, ye schulen take a wey fro me Beniamyn; alle these yuels felden in me.
Abambo awo Yakobo anawawuza kuti, “Mwandilanda ana anga ine. Yosefe anamwalira ndipo Simeoni palibenso, ndiye tsopano mukufuna mutengenso Benjamini. Zonsezi zandigwera ine!”
37 To whom Ruben answeride, Sle thou my twei sones, if Y shal not brynge hym ayen to thee; take thou hym in myn hond, and Y schal restore hym to thee.
Koma Rubeni anati kwa abambo ake, “Ngati sindidzabwera naye kwa inu, mudzaphe ana anga aamuna awiri. Muperekeni mʼmanja mwangamu ndipo ndidzamusamala ndi kubwera naye kwa inu.”
38 And Jacob seide, My sone schal not go doun with you; his brother is deed, he aloone is left; if ony aduersite schal bifalle `to hym in the lond to which ye schulen go, ye schulen lede forth myn hoore heeris with sorewe to hellis. (Sheol h7585)
Koma Yakobo anati, “Mwana wanga sapita nanu kumeneko; mkulu wake anamwalira ndipo watsala yekha. Ngati choyipa chitamuchitikira pa ulendo mukupitawu, ndiye kuti ndi mmene ndakalambiramu inu mudzandipha ndi chisoni chotere.” (Sheol h7585)
