< Genesis 47 >

1 Therfor Joseph entride, and telde to Farao, and seide, My fadir and brethren, the scheep and grete beestis of hem, and alle thingis whiche thei welden, camen fro the lond of Canaan; and lo! thei stonden in the lond of Gessen.
Awo Yusufu n’agenda eri Falaawo n’amugamba nti, “Kitange ne baganda bange n’amagana gaabwe n’ebisibo byabwe ne byonna bye balina bazze nga bava mu Kanani; kaakano bali Goseni.”
2 And he ordeynede fyue, the laste men of hise britheren, bifore the kyng,
Yalondako bataano ku baganda be, n’agenda nabo ewa Falaawo.
3 whiche he axide, What werk han ye? Thei answeriden, We thi seruauntis ben kepers of scheep, bothe we and oure faderis;
Falaawo n’ababuuza nti, “Omulimu gwammwe mulimu ki?” Ne bamuddamu nti, “Abaweereza bo tuli balunzi nga bajjajjaffe.
4 we camen in to thi lond to be pilgrymys, for noo gras is to the flockis of thi seruauntis; hungur wexith greuouse in the lond of Canaan, and we axen that thou comaunde vs thi seruauntis to be in the lond of Gessen.
Tuzze muno kunoonyeza bisibo byaffe muddo, kubanga abaddu bo tuva mu njala mpitirivu eri mu Kanani; ne kaakano abaddu bo tukusaba tubeere e Goseni.”
5 And so the kyng seide to Joseph, Thi fadir and thi britheren camen to thee;
Awo Falaawo n’agamba Yusufu nti, “Kitaawo ne baganda bo bazze gy’oli.
6 the lond of Egipt is in thi siyt, make thou hem to dwelle in the beste place, and yyue thou to hem the lond of Gessen; that if thou woost that witti men ben in hem, ordeyne thou hem maystris of my beestis.
Ensi y’e Misiri gw’ogirinako obuyinza, teeka kitaawo ne baganda bo awasinga obulungi; bateeke e Goseni. Era obanga omanyi asobola mu bo muwe akuume ente zange.”
7 After these thingis Joseph brouyte in his fader to the king, and settide him bifor the king, which blesside the king;
Awo Yusufu n’ayingiza Yakobo, kitaawe n’amwanjula eri Falaawo. Yakobo n’asabira Falaawo omukisa.
8 and he was axid of the king, Hou many ben the daies of the yeeris of thi lijf?
Falaawo n’abuuza Yakobo nti, “Olina emyaka emeka?”
9 And he answeride, The daies of pilgrymage of my lijf, ben feewe and yuele, of an hundrid and thretti yeer, and tho `camen not til to the daies of my fadris, in whiche thei weren pilgryms.
Yakobo n’addamu nti, “Emyaka egy’olugendo lwange mu nsi giri kikumi mu amakumi asatu; emyaka gyange gibadde mitono era mizibu; siwangadde nga bajjajjange.”
10 And whanne he hadde blessid the kyng, he yede out.
Olwo Yakobo n’asabira Falaawo omukisa n’ava mu maaso ga Falaawo.
11 Forsothe Joseph yaf to hise fadir and britheren possessioun in Egipt, in Ramasses, the beste soile of erthe, as Farao comaundide;
Awo Yusufu n’asenza kitaawe ne baganda be e Misiri, n’abawa ekitundu ekyali kisinga obulungi eky’e Goseni, mu Disitulikiti ey’e Lamusesi nga Falaawo bwe yalagira.
12 and he fedde hem, and al the hows of his fadir, and yaf metis to alle.
Yusufu n’awa kitaawe ne baganda be n’ab’ennyumba ya kitaawe emmere ng’omuwendo gw’abaana baabwe bwe gwali.
13 For breed failide in al the world, and hungur oppresside the lond, moost of Egipt and of Canaan;
Awo emmere n’eggwa mu kitundu ekyo kyonna kubanga enjala yayitirira obungi, ne kireetera ensi y’e Misiri ne Kanani okukosebwa ennyo.
14 of whiche londis he gaderide al the money for the sillyng of wheete, and brouyte it in to the `tresorie of the kyng.
Yusufu n’akuŋŋaanya ensimbi zonna ezaali mu Misiri ne mu Kanani ng’abaguza emmere; n’azireeta mu lubiri lwa Falaawo.
15 And whanne prijs failide to the bieris, al Egipt cam to Joseph, and seide, Yyue thou `looues to vs; whi shulen we die bifore thee, while monei failith?
Awo ensimbi bwe zaggwa ku bantu b’e Misiri ne Kanani ne bajja eri Yusufu ne bamugamba nti, “Tuwe emmere. Ensimbi zituweddeko. Lwaki tufa?”
16 To whiche he answeride, Brynge ye youre beestis, and Y schal yyue to you metis for tho, if ye han not prijs.
Yusufu n’abagamba nti, “Kale obanga ensimbi zibaweddeko mundeetere ensolo zammwe mbaguze emmere.”
17 And whanne thei hadden brouyt tho, he yaf to hem metis for horsis, and scheep, and oxun, and assis; and he susteynede hem in that yeer for the chaungyng of beestis.
Awo ne bamuleetera amagana g’ensolo zaabwe, omwali embalaasi, n’endiga, n’ente, n’endogoyi, okubiwaanyisaamu emmere; emmere eyo n’ebayisa mu mwaka ogwo.
18 And thei camen in the secunde yeer, and seiden to hym, We helen not fro oure lord, that the while monei failith, also beestis failiden togidere, nether it is hid fro thee, that with out bodies and lond we han no thing;
Omwaka ogwo bwe gwaggwaako, ne bajja eri Yusufu mu mwaka ogwaddirira ne bamugamba nti, “Tetuukukise mukama waffe, ensimbi zituweddeko n’ensolo zaffe zifuuse zizo tewali kye tusigazza, wabula emibiri gyaffe gino n’ebyalo byaffe.
19 whi therfor schulen we die, while thou seest? bothe we and oure lond schulen be thine, bie thou vs in to the kyngis seruage, and yyue thou seedis, lest the while the tiliere perischith, the lond be turned in to wildirnesse.
Tufiira ki nga w’oli? Tugule ffe n’ebyalo byaffe otuwe emmere tuleme okufa, naffe tuliba baddu ba Falaawo, ensi yaffe ereme okuzikirira.”
20 Therfor Joseph bouyte al the lond of Egipt, while all men seelden her possessiouns, for the greetnesse of hungur;
Bw’atyo Yusufu n’agulira Falaawo ensi yonna ey’e Misiri. Abamisiri kinoomu, bonna ne batunda ebyalo byabwe kubanga enjala yali mpitirivu, ensi yonna n’efuuka ya Falaawo.
21 and he made it and alle puplis therof suget to Farao, fro the laste termes of Egipt til to the laste endis therof,
Bwe batyo n’abantu baamu okuva ku njuyi zonna ne bafuuka baddu ba Falaawo.
22 outakun the lond of preestis, that was youun of the kyng to hem, to whiche preestis also metis weren youun of the comun bernys, and therfor thei weren not compellid to sille her possessiouns.
Ekitundu kya bakabona kye kyokka ky’ataagula, kubanga bo baasasulwanga Falaawo. Kye yabasasulanga kwe beeguliranga ebyokulya; bo kyebaava batatunda ttaka lyabwe.
23 Therfor Joseph seide to the puplis, Lo! as ye seen, Farao weldith bothe you and youre lond; take ye seedis, and `sowe ye feeldis,
Awo Yusufu n’agamba abantu nti, “Mulabe, olwa leero mbaguze mmwe n’ebyalo byammwe; mbagulidde Falaawo. Kale kaakano ensigo zino zammwe munaazisiga.
24 that ye moun haue fruytis; ye schulen yyue the fifthe part to the kyng; Y suffre to you the foure residue partis in to seed and in to meetis, to you, and to youre fre children.
Bwe mulikungula, muliwa Falaawo ekitundu kimu kyakutaano, ebitundu bina bya kutaano biriba byammwe, okuba ensigo mu nnimiro zammwe, n’emmere ku lwammwe n’ab’ennyumba zammwe n’abaana bammwe.”
25 Whiche answeriden, Oure helthe is in thin hond; oneli oure God biholde vs, and we schulen ioifuli serue the kyng.
Ne bamuddamu nti, “Otuwonyezza okufa; mukama waffe bw’anaasiima tuliba baddu ba Falaawo.”
26 For that tyme til in to present dai, in al the lond of Egipt, the fyuethe part is paied to the kyngis, and it is maad as in to a lawe, with out the lond of preestis, that was fre fro this condicioun.
Awo Yusufu n’ateeka etteeka erikwata ku ttaka mu nsi y’e Misiri; weeliri n’okutuusa kaakano, nti ekitundu kimu kyakutaano kiba musolo gwa Falaawo; ettaka ly’abakabona lyokka lye litaafuuka lya Falaawo.
27 Therfor Israel dwellide in Egipt, that is, in the lond of Jessen, and weldide it; and he was encreessid and multiplied ful mych.
Bw’atyo Isirayiri n’abantu be ne babeera mu nsi y’e Misiri, mu Goseni, ne bagaggawalira mu kitundu ekyo. Baazaala ne baala nnyo.
28 And he lyuede therynne sixtene yeer; and alle the daies of his lijf weren maad of an hundrid and seuene and fourti yeer.
Yakobo n’amala mu Misiri emyaka kkumi na musanvu. Bw’atyo Yakobo n’awangaala emyaka kikumi mu ana mu musanvu.
29 And whanne he seiy the dai of deeth nyye, he clepide his sone Joseph, and seide to hym, If Y haue founde grace in thi siyt; putte thin hond vndur myn hipe, and thou schal do merci and treuthe to me, that thou birie not me in Egipt;
Ekiseera eky’okufa kwa Isirayiri bwe kyali kisembedde, n’ayita mutabani we Yusufu n’amugamba nti, “Obanga nfunye ekisa mu maaso go teeka omukono gwo wansi w’ekisambi kyange, ondayirire ng’onompulira n’otonkuusakuusa: tonziikanga mu Misiri,
30 but `Y schal slepe with my fadris, and take thou awey me fro this lond, and birie in the sepulcre of my grettere. To whom Joseph answeride, Y schal do that that thou comaundist.
onteekanga wamu ne bajjajjange. Olintwala n’onziika ku butaka.” Yusufu n’amuddamu nti, “Ndikola nga bw’ogambye.”
31 And Israel seide, Therfor swere thou to me; and whanne Joseph swoor, Israel turnede to the heed of the bed, and worschipide God.
N’amugamba nti, “Ndayirira.” N’amulayirira. Awo Isirayiri n’akoteka omutwe gwe ng’atudde emitwetwe w’ekitanda kye.
