Genesis 42
1 Forsothe Jacob herde that foodis weren seeld in Egipt, and he seide to hise sones, Whi ben ye necgligent?
Lè Jakòb vin konnen te gen ble pou vann nan peyi Lejip, li di pitit li yo: -Poukisa nou chita konsa yonn ap gade lòt, de bra kwaze?
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.
Mwen tande y'ap vann ble nan peyi Lejip. Desann non, al achte ble pou nou ka viv pou nou pa mouri grangou.
3 Therfor ten britheren of Joseph yeden doun to bie wheete in Egipt,
Se konsa, dis nan frè Jozèf yo desann nan peyi Lejip, y al achte ble.
4 and Beniamyn was withholdun of Jacob at hoome, that seide to hise britheren, Lest perauenture in the weie he suffre ony yuel.
Men Jakòb pa t' voye Benjamen, lòt frè Jozèf menm manman avè l' la, avèk yo paske li te pè pou malè pa t' rive l'.
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.
Grangou a te rèd nan peyi Kanaran an tou. Se konsa, pitit Izrayèl yo te vwayaje ansanm ak lòt moun ki tapral achte ble tou.
6 And Joseph was prince of Egipt, and at his wille whetis weren seeld to puplis. And whanne hise britheren hadden worschipid hym,
Se Jozèf ki t'ap gouvènen sou tout peyi Lejip la. Se nan men l' moun te konn soti toupatou vin achte manje. Frè Jozèf yo rive, yo bese tèt yo byen ba jouk atè pou di l' bonjou.
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.
Lè Jozèf wè frè l' yo, li rekonèt yo. Men li pran pòz pa konnen yo. Li pale rèd ak yo. Li di: -Ki bò nou soti? Yo reponn: -Nou soti peyi Kanaran, nou vin achte manje.
8 And netheles he knewe the britheren, and he was not knowun of hem,
Jozèf te rekonèt frè l' yo, men yo menm yo pa t' rekonèt li.
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.
Le sa a Jozèf vin chonje rèv li te fè sou frè l' yo. Li di yo: -Nou se yon bann espyon. Nou vin isit la pou n' chache konnen pwen fèb peyi a.
10 Whiche seiden, Lord, it is not so, but thi seruauntis camen to bie metis;
Yo reponn li: -Non, mèt. Nou se moun pa ou, se manje nou vin achte isit la.
11 alle we ben the sones of o man, we comen pesible, and thi seruauntis ymaginen not ony yuel.
Nou tout nou se pitit yon sèl papa. Nou p'ap ba ou manti, se pa espyon nou ye.
12 To `whiche he answeride, It is in other maner, ye camen to se the feble thingis of the lond.
Jozèf di yo: -Se pa vre. Nou vin isit la pou n' chache konnen pwen fèb peyi a.
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.
Yo di l': -Nou se douz frè, pitit yon sèl papa nan peyi Kanaran. Dènye a rete ak papa nou. Gen yonn nan nou ki disparèt.
14 This it is, he seide, that Y spak to you,
Jozèf reponn yo: -Nou wè mwen gen rezon lè m' di se yon bann espyon nou ye.
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,
Men ki bò mwen pral kenbe nou: M'ap fè sèman sou tèt farawon an, nou p'ap soti isit la tout tan nou pa fè ti frè nou an vini isit la.
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.
Voye yonn nan nou al chache l'. Lòt yo ap rete nan prizon. Se konsa, m'a wè nou pa t'ap bay manti. Si se pa sa, mwen fè sèman sou tèt farawon an, se espyon nou ye.
17 Therfor he bitook hem to kepyng thre daies; sotheli in the thridde dai,
Li fè fèmen yo tout nan prizon pandan twa jou.
18 whanne thei weren led out of prisoun, he seide, Do ye that that Y seide, and ye schulen lyue, for Y drede God;
Sou twazyèm jou a, Jozèf di yo: -Men sa pou n' fè, si nou vle sove lavi nou: Mwen menm mwen se moun ki respekte Bondye.
19 if ye ben pesible, o brother of you be boundun in prisoun; forsothe go ye, and bere wheetis, whiche ye bouyten,
Si nou konnen nou p'ap bay manti se pou yonn nan nou rete fèmen nan prizon kote yo te fèmen nou an. Lòt yo mèt pote ble a ale pou fanmi nou yo ka manje.
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,
Men, ti frè nou an, sa ki pi piti a, se pou nou mennen l' ban mwen, pou nou ka moutre m' nou pa t' ban m' manti. Konsa, yo p'ap touye nou. Yo tonbe dakò sou sa.
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.
Yonn t'ap di lòt: -Nou wè. Nou peye sa nou te fè frè nou an pase. Se vre wi. Nou te fè mal lè nou te fè frè nou an pase tout sa nou te fè l' la. Nou te wè ki jan sa te fè l' lapenn anpil, lè li t'ap mande nou fè l' gras. Men, nou pa t' vle koute l'. Se poutèt sa nou nan tout traka sa a.
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.
Woubenn di yo: -Mwen te di nou pa fè tibway la anyen, men nou pa t' vle koute m'. Koulye a se lanmò tibway la n'ap peye.
23 Sotheli thei wisten not that Joseph vndirstood, for he spak to hem by interpretour.
Jozèf te konprann tout sa yo t'ap di a. Men yo pa t' konn sa paske te gen yon moun ki t'ap tradwi pou yo lè yo t'ap pale avè l'.
24 And he turnede awei hym silf a litil and wepte; and he turnede ayen, and spak to hem.
Jozèf soti kote yo te ye a, li al kriye. Lèfini li tounen, li pale ak yo, li pran Simeyon, li fè yo mete l' nan chenn, la devan yo tout.
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.
Jozèf te bay lòd pou yo te plen sak yo avèk ble, pou yo te mete lajan yo chak nan sak yo ankò, lèfini pou yo ba yo manje pou yo manje sou wout la. Se sa yo te fè vre.
26 And thei `baren wetis on her assis, and yeden forth,
Frè yo menm chaje bourik yo ak ble yo te achte a, yo pati.
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,
Lè yo rive kote yo t'ap pase nwit la a, yonn ladan yo louvri sak li pou l' te ka bay bourik li manje. Li jwenn lajan li te bay la nan sak la.
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.
Li di frè l' yo. -Yo renmèt mwen lajan m' lan wi. Men li nan sak mwen an. Kè yo kase. Yo t'ap tranble kou fèy bwa tèlman yo te pè. Yonn t'ap di lòt: -Kisa Bondye fè nou konsa?
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,
Lè yo rive kay Jakòb, papa yo, nan peyi Kanaran, yo rakonte l' tout sa ki te pase. Yo di l':
30 The lord of the lond spak harde to vs, and gesside that we weren aspieris of the prouynce;
-Nèg k'ap gouvènen peyi a pale rèd ak nou. Li pran nou pou espyon.
31 to whom we answeriden, We ben pesible, nether we purposen ony tresouns;
Nou di l' nou p'ap ba l' manti, se pa espyon nou ye.
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.
Se douz frè nou ye, pitit yon sèl papa. Yonn nan nou disparèt, dènye a rete ak papa nou nan peyi Kanaran.
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,
Men chèf peyi a di nou: Men ki jan m'ap konnen si nou p'ap ban m' manti: Kite yonn nan frè nou yo isit la avèk mwen. Pran sa nou bezwen pou fanmi nou. Nou mèt ale. Mennen lòt ti frè nou an ban mwen.
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.
Lè sa a, m'a konnen se pa espyon nou ye, nou pa t'ap ban m' manti. m'a renmèt nou frè nou an. m'a kite nou trafike nan peyi a.
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,
Lè yo vide sak yo, chak moun jwenn ti sakit lajan li te bay la nan bouch sak li ankò. Lè yo wè sa, yon sèl lapè pran yo ansanm ak papa yo.
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.
Lè sa a Jakòb, papa yo, di: -N'ap wete tout pitit mwen yo nan men m'. Jozèf disparèt, Simeyon pa la ankò. Koulye a, nou vle pran m' Benjamen. Se mwen menm k'ap pote tout chaj la.
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.
Woubenn di papa l' konsa: -Papa, ou mèt touye de pitit gason m' yo, si m' pa mennen Benjamen tounen ba ou. Ou mèt renmèt mwen li nan men, m'ap mennen l' tounen ba ou.
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)
Men Jakòb te di: -Pitit gason m' lan p'ap fè yon pa. Frè li a fin mouri. Se li menm sèl ki rete nan pitit manman l' yo. Si pou yon malè ta rive l' nan vwayaj nou pral fè a, m'a mouri. Mwen fin granmoun, lapenn sa a va twòp pou mwen, la fin pote m' ale. (Sheol h7585)
