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?'
Nígbà tí Jakọbu mọ̀ pé ọkà wà ní Ejibiti, ó wí fún àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ ọkùnrin pé, “Èéṣe tí ẹ ń wo ara yín lásán?”
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;'
“Mo tí gbọ́ pé ọkà wà ní ilẹ̀ Ejibiti. Ẹ sọ̀kalẹ̀ lọ sí ibẹ̀ kí ẹ sì rà wá fún wa, kí a má ba à kú.”
3 and the ten brethren of Joseph go down to buy corn in Egypt,
Nígbà náà ni mẹ́wàá nínú àwọn arákùnrin Josẹfu sọ̀kalẹ̀ lọ sí Ejibiti láti ra ọkà.
4 and Benjamin, Joseph's brother, Jacob hath not sent with his brethren, for he said, 'Lest mischief meet him.'
Ṣùgbọ́n Jakọbu kò rán Benjamini àbúrò Josẹfu lọ pẹ̀lú wọn nítorí ẹ̀rù ń bà á kí aburú má ba à ṣẹlẹ̀ sí i.
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,
Nítorí náà, àwọn ọmọ Israẹli wà lára àwọn tó lọ Ejibiti lọ ra oúnjẹ nítorí ìyàn náà mú ni ilẹ̀ Kenaani pẹ̀lú.
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.
Nísinsin yìí, Josẹfu ni alábojútó fún gbogbo ilẹ̀ Ejibiti, òun sì ni ó ń bojútó ọkà títà fún gbogbo ènìyàn ìlú náà. Nítorí náà nígbà tí àwọn arákùnrin Josẹfu dé, wọ́n tẹríba, wọ́n sì foríbalẹ̀ fún Josẹfu.
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.'
Lọ́gán tí Josẹfu ti rí àwọn arákùnrin rẹ̀ ni ó ti dá wọn mọ̀, ṣùgbọ́n ó ṣe bí i wí pé kò mọ̀ wọ́n, ó sì sọ̀rọ̀ líle sí wọn. Ó béèrè pé, “Níbo ni ẹ ti wá?” Wọ́n sì dáhùn pé, “Láti ilẹ̀ Kenaani ni a ti wá ra oúnjẹ.”
8 And Joseph discerneth his brethren, but they have not discerned him,
Bí ó tilẹ̀ jẹ́ wí pé, Josẹfu mọ àwọn arákùnrin rẹ̀, síbẹ̀ àwọn arákùnrin rẹ̀ kò mọ̀ ọ́n.
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.'
Nígbà náà ni ó rántí àlá rẹ̀ tí ó lá sí wọn, ó sì wí fún wọn pé, “Amí ni yín, ẹ wá láti wo àṣírí ilẹ̀ wa ni.”
10 And they say unto him, 'No, my lord, but thy servants have come to buy food;
Wọ́n dáhùn pé, “Bẹ́ẹ̀ kọ́ olúwa wa, àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ wá láti ra oúnjẹ ni.
11 we [are] all of us sons of one man, we [are] right men; thy servants have not been spies;'
Ọmọ baba ni wá, olóòtítọ́ ènìyàn sì ni wá pẹ̀lú, àwa kì í ṣe ayọ́lẹ̀wò.”
12 and he saith unto them, 'No, but the nakedness of the land ye have come to see;'
Ó wí fún wọn pé, “Rárá! Ẹ wá láti wo àṣírí ilẹ̀ wa ni.”
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.'
Ṣùgbọ́n wọ́n tún dáhùn pé, “Arákùnrin méjìlá ni àwa ìránṣẹ́ rẹ, ọmọ baba kan náà, tí ó ń gbé ní ilẹ̀ Kenaani. Èyí tí ó jẹ́ àbíkẹ́yìn wa ń bẹ lọ́dọ̀ baba wa, ọ̀kan sì ti kú.”
14 And Joseph saith unto them, 'This [is] that which I have spoken unto you, saying, Ye [are] spies,
Josẹfu wí fún wọn pé, “Bí mo ti wí fún un yín náà ni, Ayọ́lẹ̀wò ni yín!

Èyí sì ni a ó fi dán an yín wò, èmi búra pé, níwọ̀n ìgbà tí Farao bá wà láààyè, ẹ kì yóò kúrò níbí, àyàfi bí arákùnrin yín kan tókù bá wá sí ibí.
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;'
Ẹ rán ọ̀kan nínú yín lọ láti mú arákùnrin yín wá, àwa yóò fi ẹ̀yin tókù pamọ́ sínú túbú, kí àwa ba à lè mọ bóyá òtítọ́ ni ẹ̀yin ń wí. Ṣùgbọ́n bí ó bá jẹ́ pé irọ́ ni ẹ̀yin ń pa, ní òtítọ́ bí Farao ti ń bẹ láààyè ayọ́lẹ̀wò ni yín!”
17 and he removeth them unto charge three days.
Ó sì fi gbogbo wọn sínú túbú fún ọjọ́ mẹ́ta.
18 And Joseph saith unto them on the third day, 'This do and live; God I fear!
Ní ọjọ́ kẹta, Josẹfu wí fún wọn pé, “Èyí ni ẹ̀yin yóò ṣe kí ẹ̀yin ba à le yè nítorí mo bẹ̀rù Ọlọ́run.
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,
Tí ó bá jẹ́ pé olóòtítọ́ ènìyàn ni yín, ẹ jẹ́ kí ọ̀kan nínú yín dúró ni túbú ní ìhín, nígbà tí àwọn yòókù yín yóò gbé ọkà lọ fún àwọn ará ilé e yín tí ebi ń pa.
20 and your young brother ye bring unto me, and your words are established, and ye die not;' and they do so.
Ṣùgbọ́n ẹ gbọdọ̀ mú arákùnrin tí ó jẹ́ àbíkẹ́yìn yín wá, kí n ba à le mọ òtítọ́ ohun ti ẹ ń wí, kí ẹ má ba à kú.” Wọn sì gbà láti ṣe èyí.
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.'
Wọ́n ń sọ ọ́ láàrín ara wọn wí pé, “Àwa jẹ̀bi nítòótọ́ nípa ti arákùnrin wa. A rí ìbànújẹ́ ọkàn rẹ̀ nígbà tí ó ń bẹ̀ wá nítorí ẹ̀mí rẹ̀, ṣùgbọ́n a kò gbẹ́bẹ̀, nítorí náà ni ìdààmú yìí fi dé bá wa.”
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.'
Reubeni dá wọn ní ohùn pé, “Èmi kò wí fún yín pé kí ẹ má se ṣẹ̀ sí ọmọdékùnrin náà? Ṣùgbọ́n ẹ kò gbọ́! Ṣùgbọ́n nísinsin yìí a ń béèrè ẹ̀jẹ̀ rẹ̀ lọ́wọ́ wa.”
23 And they have not known that Joseph understandeth, for the interpreter [is] between them;
Wọn kò sì mọ̀ pé, Josẹfu ń gbọ́ wọn ní àgbọ́yé nítorí ògbufọ̀ ni ó ń lò tẹ́lẹ̀.
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.
Ó yípadà kúrò lọ́dọ̀ wọn, ó sì bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí ní sọkún. Ó sì tún yí padà sí wọn, ó sì bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí ní sọ̀rọ̀. Ó mú Simeoni kúrò láàrín wọn, ó sì dè é ní ojú wọn.
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.
Josẹfu pàṣẹ pé kí wọn bu ọkà kún inú àpò wọn, kí wọn sì mú owó ẹnìkọ̀ọ̀kan padà sínú àpò rẹ̀, kí wọn sì fún wọn ní ohun tí wọn yóò lò nírín-àjò wọn padà sílé. Lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí a ti ṣe èyí fún wọn,
26 And they lift up their corn upon their asses, and go from thence,
wọn gbé ẹrù wọn lé kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́, wọn sì padà lọ sí ilé.
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,
Níbi tí wọ́n ti dúró láti sùn lóru ọjọ́ náà, ọ̀kan nínú wọn tú àpò rẹ̀ láti mú oúnjẹ fún kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ rẹ̀, ó sì rí owó rẹ̀ ní ẹnu àpò rẹ̀.
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!'
Ó sì wí fún àwọn arákùnrin rẹ̀ pé, “a ti dá owó mi padà, òun nìyí ní ẹnu àpò mi.” Ẹ̀rù bà wọ́n, wọ́n sì ń gbọ̀n, wọ́n sì wí pé, “Èwo nìyí tí Ọlọ́run ṣe sí wa yìí.”
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,
Nígbà tí wọ́n padà dé ọ̀dọ̀ Jakọbu baba wọn ní ilẹ̀ Kenaani, wọ́n ròyìn gbogbo ohun tí ó ṣẹlẹ̀ fún un wí pé,
30 'The man, the lord of the land, hath spoken with us sharp things, and maketh us as spies of the land;
“Ọkùnrin náà tí í ṣe alábojútó ilẹ̀ náà, sọ̀rọ̀ líle sí wa, ó sì fi ẹ̀sùn kàn wá pé a wá yọ́ ilẹ̀ náà wò ni.
31 and we say unto him, We [are] right men, we have not been spies,
Ṣùgbọ́n, a wí fún un pé, ‘Rárá o, olóòtítọ́ ènìyàn ni wá, a kì í ṣe ayọ́lẹ̀wò.
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.
Arákùnrin méjìlá ni wá, ọmọ baba kan náà, ọ̀kan ti kú, èyí tí ó jẹ́ àbíkẹ́yìn wà lọ́dọ̀ baba wa ni ilẹ̀ Kenaani.’
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,
“Nígbà náà ni ọkùnrin tí ó jẹ́ alábojútó ilẹ̀ náà wí fún wa pé, ‘Báyìí ni n ó ṣe mọ̀ bóyá olóòtítọ́ ènìyàn ni yín, ẹ fi ọ̀kan nínú àwọn arákùnrin yín sílẹ̀ níbí, pẹ̀lú mi, ẹ sì mú oúnjẹ lọ fún àwọn ará ilé yín tí ebi ń pa kú lọ, lọ́wọ́ ìyàn.

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;
Bí wọ́n sì ti ń tú àpò ẹrù wọn, ẹnìkọ̀ọ̀kan bá owó tí ó san fún ọjà náà lẹ́nu àpò rẹ̀! Ẹ̀rù sì bà wọ́n gidigidi, àwọn àti baba wọn.
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.'
Jakọbu baba wọn wí fún wọn pé, “Ẹ ti mú mi pàdánù àwọn ọmọ mi. N kò rí Josẹfu mọ́, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni n kò sì rí Simeoni náà mọ. Ẹ sì tún fẹ́ mú Benjamini lọ. Èmi ni gbogbo ohun búburú yìí wá ń ṣẹlẹ̀ sí!”
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;'

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)
Ṣùgbọ́n Jakọbu wí pé, “Ọmọ mi kì yóò bá a yín lọ, ẹ̀gbọ́n rẹ̀ ti kú, òun nìkan sì ni ó kù nínú àwọn ọmọ ìyá rẹ̀. Bí ohunkóhun bá ṣẹlẹ̀ sí i, ìbànújẹ́ ni yóò sì pa mi kú ni ọjọ́ ogbó mi yìí.” (Sheol h7585)
