Genesis 42

1 And Jacob seeth that there is corn in Egypt, and Jacob saith to his sons, 'Why do you look at each other?'

Ary fantatr’ i Jakoba fa nisy vary tany Egypta, dia hoy izy tamin’ ny zananilahy: Nahoana no mifampijery foana ianareo?

2 he saith also, 'Lo, I have heard that there is corn in Egypt, go down thither, and buy for us from thence, and we live and do not die;'

Dia hoy koa izy: Indro, efa reko fa misy vary any Egypta; andeha midìna any ianareo, ka mividia ho antsika, mba ho velona isika, fa tsy ho faty.

3 and the ten brethren of Joseph go down to buy corn in Egypt,

Dia lasa nidina izy folo lahy rahalahin’ i Josefa mba hividy vary tany Egypta.

4 and Benjamin, Joseph's brother, Jacob hath not sent with his brethren, for he said, 'Lest mischief meet him.'

Fa Benjamina, rahalahin’ i Josefa, tsy mba nampandehanin’ i Jakoba niaraka tamin’ ny rahalahiny; fa hoy izy: Andrao hisy loza hanjo azy.

5 And the sons of Israel come to buy in the midst of those coming, for the famine hath been in the land of Canaan,

Dia tonga ny zanak’ Isiraely mba hividy vary niaraka tamin’ izay nankany; fa tratry ny mosary koa ny tany Kanana.

6 and Joseph is the ruler over the land, he who is selling to all the people of the land, and Joseph's brethren come and bow themselves to him — face to the earth.

Ary Josefa no mpanapaka ny tany, sady izy no mpivaro-bary tamin’ ny tompon-tany rehetra; ary tonga ny rahalahin’ i Josefa ka niankohoka tamin’ ny tany teo anatrehany.

7 And Joseph seeth his brethren, and discerneth them, and maketh himself strange unto them, and speaketh with them sharp things, and saith unto them, 'From whence have ye come?' and they say, 'From the land of Canaan — to buy food.'

Ary hitan’ i Josefa ny rahalahiny, dia fantany ihany izy, nefa nody olon-kafa taminy izy ka niteny mafy taminy nanao hoe: Avy aiza ianareo? Ary hoy kosa izy: Avy any amin’ ny tany Kanana izahay mba hividy hanina.

8 And Joseph discerneth his brethren, but they have not discerned him,

Ary fantatr’ i Josefa ny rahalahiny, nefa izy ireo kosa tsy mba nahafantatra azy.

9 and Joseph remembereth the dreams which he dreamed of them, and saith unto them, 'Ye [are] spies; to see the nakedness of the land ye have come.'

Ary Josefa nahatsiaro ireo nofy nanofisany azy ka nanao taminy hoe: Mpisafo ianareo; hizaha ny fangadihadin’ ny tany no nahatongavanareo.

10 And they say unto him, 'No, my lord, but thy servants have come to buy food;

Fa hoy izy ireo taminy: Tsia, tompokolahy; fa tonga mba hividy hanina ny mpanomponao.

11 we [are] all of us sons of one man, we [are] right men; thy servants have not been spies;'

Zanaky ny lehilahy iray ihany izahay rehetra; olo-marina izahay, fa tsy mba mpisafo tsy akory ny mpanomponao.

12 and he saith unto them, 'No, but the nakedness of the land ye have come to see;'

Ary hoy izy taminy: Tsia, fa hizaha ny fangadihadin’ ny tany no nahatongavanareo.

13 and they say, 'Thy servants [are] twelve brethren; we [are] sons of one man in the land of Canaan, and lo, the young one [is] with our father to-day, and the one is not.'

Fa hoy izy; Roa ambin’ ny folo mirahalahy ny mpanomponao, zanaky ny lehilahy iray ihany any amin’ ny tany Kanana; ary, indro, ny faralahy dia any amin’ ny rainay ankehitriny, fa ny anankiray tsy ao intsony.

14 And Joseph saith unto them, 'This [is] that which I have spoken unto you, saying, Ye [are] spies,

Ary hoy Josefa taminy: Ilay voalazako taminareo ihany hoe: Mpisafo ianareo no marina;

15 by this ye are proved: Pharaoh liveth! if ye go out from this — except by your young brother coming hither;

dia izao àry no hamantarana anareo: Raha velona koa Farao, tsy hiala atỳ ianareo, raha tsy tonga atỳ izany zandrinareo faralahy izany.

16 send one of you, and let him bring your brother, and ye, remain ye bound, and let your words be proved, whether truth be with you: and if not — Pharaoh liveth! surely ye [are] spies;'

Iraho ny anankiray aminareo, ary aoka izy haka ny zandrinareo, fa ianareo hafatotra, mba hofantarina ny teninareo, na marina na tsia; fa raha tsy izany, raha velona koa Farao, dia mpisafo tokoa ianareo.

17 and he removeth them unto charge three days.

Dia nataony tao an-trano-maizina hateloana izy rehetra.

18 And Joseph saith unto them on the third day, 'This do and live; God I fear!

Ary nony tamin’ ny andro fahatelo dia hoy Josefa taminy: Izao no ataovy, dia ho velona ianareo; fa izaho matahotra an’ Andriamanitra:

19 if ye [are] right men, let one of your brethren be bound in the house of your ward, and ye, go, carry in corn [for] the famine of your houses,

Raha olo-marina ary ianareo, dia aoka ny anankiray aminareo mirahalahy avy no hafatotra ao amin’ ny trano-maizina nitoeranareo; ary mandehana ianareo hitondra vary noho ny mosary any amin’ ny tranonareo;

20 and your young brother ye bring unto me, and your words are established, and ye die not;' and they do so.

ary ny zandrinareo faralahy dia ento mankaty amiko; dia ho hita fa marina ny teninareo, ary tsy hovonoina ianareo. Ary nataony izany.

21 And they say one unto another, 'Verily we [are] guilty concerning our brother, because we saw the distress of his soul, in his making supplication unto us, and we did not hearken: therefore hath this distress come upon us.'

Dia niresaka hoe izy: Efa meloka tokoa isika noho ny amin’ ny rahalahintsika, satria nahita ny fahorian’ ny fanahiny isika, raha nitaraina tamintsika izy, nefa tsy mba nihaino isika; koa izany no nahatongavan’ izao fahoriana izao amintsika.

22 And Reuben answereth them, saying, 'Spake I not unto you, saying, Sin not against the lad? and ye hearkened not; and his blood also, lo, it is required.'

Dia namaly azy Robena ka nanao hoe: Moa tsy niteny taminareo va aho ka nanao hoe: Aza manota amin’ ny zaza? nefa tsy mba nihaino ianareo; koa indro fa adinina ny ràny izao.

23 And they have not known that Joseph understandeth, for the interpreter [is] between them;

Ary izy ireo tsy mba nahalala fa Josefa nahafantatra ny teniny, satria nisy mpandika teny niresahany taminy.

24 and he turneth round from them, and weepeth, and turneth back unto them, and speaketh unto them, and taketh from them Simeon, and bindeth him before their eyes.

Ary Josefa dia nihodina niala teo aminy ka nitomany; ary niverina nankeo aminy indray izy ka niteny taminy, ary dia naka an’ i Simeona teo aminy izy ka namatotra azy teo imasony.

25 And Joseph commandeth, and they fill their vessels [with] corn, also to put back the money of each unto his sack, and to give to them provision for the way; and one doth to them so.

Ary Josefa nanome teny hameno vary ny lasakany sady hamerina ny volan’ ny isan-dahy ho ao anatin’ ny lasakany avy ary hanome vatsy azy ho entiny eny an-dalana; dia nanao izany taminy izy.

26 And they lift up their corn upon their asses, and go from thence,

Ary natainginy tamin’ ny borikiny ny vary, dia lasa nandeha izy.

27 and the one openeth his sack to give provender to his ass at a lodging-place, and he seeth his money, and lo, it [is] in the mouth of his bag,

Ary raha nosokafan’ ny anankiray ny lasakany hampihinanany ny borikiny teo amin’ izay handriany, dia hitany ny volany; fa, indro, teo am-bavan’ ny lasakany izany.

28 and he saith unto his brethren, 'My money hath been put back, and also, lo, in my bag:' and their heart goeth out, and they tremble, one to another saying, 'What [is] this God hath done to us!'

Dia hoy izy tamin’ ireo rahalahiny: Naverina ny volako, ka, indro, eo anatin’ ny lasakako izany; dia ketraka ny fony, ary nifampijery amin-tahotra izy ka niresaka hoe: Inona izao ataon’ Andriamanitra amintsika izao?

29 And they come in unto Jacob their father, to the land of Canaan, and they declare to him all the things meeting them, saying,

Ary tonga tany amin’ i Jakoba rainy, tany amin’ ny tany Kanana izy, dia nambarany taminy izay rehetra efa nanjo azy, ka hoy izy:

30 'The man, the lord of the land, hath spoken with us sharp things, and maketh us as spies of the land;

Mafy ny teny nataon-dralehilahy, tompon’ ny tany, taminay, fa nataony ho mpisafo ny tany izahay.

31 and we say unto him, We [are] right men, we have not been spies,

Ary hoy izahay taminy: Olo-marina izahay, fa tsy mba mpisafo tsy akory;

32 we [are] twelve brethren, sons of our father, the one is not, and the young one [is] to-day with our father in the land of Canaan.

roa ambin’ ny folo mirahalahy izahay no zanaky ny rainay; tsy ao intsony ny anankiray, ary ny faralahy dia any amin’ ny rainay any amin’ ny tany Kanana ankehitriny.

33 'And the man, the lord of the land, saith unto us, By this I know that ye [are] right men — one of your brethren leave with me, and [for] the famine of your houses take ye and go,

Dia hoy ralehilahy, tompon’ ny tany, taminay: Izao ary no hahafantarako fa olo-marina ianareo: ny anankiray aminareo mirahalahy avy dia avelao atỳ amiko, ka mitondra vary noho ny mosary any amin’ ny tranonareo, dia mandehana;

34 and bring your young brother unto me, and I know that ye [are] not spies, but ye [are] right men; your brother I give to you, and ye trade with the land.'

ary ento mankaty amiko ny zandrinareo faralahy, dia ho fantatro fa tsy mba mpisafo ianareo, fa olo-marina; dia homeko anareo ny rahalahinareo, ka dia hanao varotra eto amin’ ny tany ianareo.

35 And it cometh to pass, they are emptying their sacks, and lo, the bundle of each man's silver [is] in his sack, and they see their bundles of silver, they and their father, and are afraid;

Ary raha nandraraka izay tao anatin’ ny lasakany izy ireo, dia, indro, ny volany am-ponosana samy teo anatin’ ny lasakany avy; ary rehefa nahita ny volany am-ponosana izy sy ny rainy, dia samy raiki-tahotra.

36 and Jacob their father saith unto them, 'Me ye have bereaved; Joseph is not, and Simeon is not, and Benjamin ye take — against me have been all these.'

Ary hoy Jakoba rainy taminy: Foananareo anaka aho: Josefa tsy eto intsony, Simeona koa tsy eto intsony, ary Benjamina indray halainareo; izaho ihany no ozoin’ izany rehetra izany,

37 And Reuben speaketh unto his father, saying, 'My two sons thou dost put to death, if I bring him not in unto thee; give him into my hand, and I — I bring him back unto thee;'

Ary Robena niteny tamin’ ny rainy ka nanao hoe: Vonoy ny zanako roa lahy, raha tsy entiko miverina atỳ aminao izy; atolory eto an-tanako izy, dia izaho no hitondra azy mody ho atỳ aminao indray.

38 and he saith, 'My son doth not go down with you, for his brother [is] dead, and he by himself is left; when mischief hath met him in the way in which ye go, then ye have brought down my grey hairs in sorrow to sheol.' (Sheol h7585)

Ary hoy Jakoba: Tsy hidina hiaraka aminareo ny zanako; fa maty ny rahalahiny, ary izy irery ihany no sisa, ary raha hisy loza hanjo azy any amin’ ny lalana izay halehanareo, dia hampidininareo any amin’ ny fiainan-tsi-hita amin’ alahelo ny volo fotsiko. (Sheol h7585)
