Mose 1 37
1 Ale Yakob gatso aƒe ɖe Kanaan, afi si fofoa nɔ la.
Yakobo yabeeranga mu Kanani, ensi bajjajjaabe mwe baatambuliratambuliranga.
2 Esiae nye Yakob ƒe dzidzimeviwo ŋutinya. Fifia Yakob ƒe vi Yosef xɔ ƒe wuiadre. Eya kple fofoviawo, ame siwo nye fofoa srɔ̃wo Bilha kple Zilpa ƒe viwo ƒe dɔe nye be woakpɔ wo fofo ƒe lãwo dzi. Yosef gblɔa nu madzemadze siwo nɔviawo wɔna la na wo fofo.
Era bino bye bifa ku lulyo lwa Yakobo: Yusufu bwe yali nga wa myaka kkumi na musanvu ng’ali ne baganda be batabani ba Biira ne Zirifa, nga balunda ekisibo ky’endiga, Yusufu n’ategeezanga Yakobo kitaabwe ebintu ebibi bye baakolanga.
3 Israel lɔ̃ Yosef wu via bubuawo, elabena wodzi Yosef nɛ esime wònye amegãɖeɖi. Ale gbe ɖeka Yakob tɔ awu ʋlaya nyui aɖe nɛ.
Bw’atyo Isirayiri n’ayagala nnyo Yusufu okusinga abaana be abalala, kubanga nga ye mwana ow’omu bukadde bwe; n’amutungira ekyambalo eky’amabala amangi.
4 Yosef nɔviwo de dzesi lɔlɔ̃ tɔxɛ si wo fofo tsɔ nɛ la, eya ta wolé fui, eye womeƒoa nu nɛ kple nɔvilɔlɔ̃ ƒe gbe o.
Naye baganda ba Yusufu bwe baalaba nga kitaabwe amwagala okusinga bo ne bakyawa Yusufu, ne batayinza na kwogera naye na kisa.
5 Gbe ɖeka la, Yosef ku drɔ̃e, eye wòlĩi na nɔviawo. Nu sia gadzi nɔviawo ƒe fuléle ɖe edzi!
Lumu Yusufu n’aloota ekirooto, n’agenda n’akitegeeza baganda be, ne beeyongera nnyo okumukyawa.
6 Egblɔ be, “Miɖo to miase nye drɔ̃e la ɖa.
Yabagamba nti, “Muwulire ekirooto kino kye naloose.
7 Míeyi ɖanɔ mɔlu blam le gbedzi; tete nye mɔlu babla tsi tsitre, eye mia tɔwo katã va ƒo xlãe, eye wode ta agu nɛ.”
Twali tusiba ebinywa by’eŋŋaano nga tuli mu nnimiro, ekinywa kyange ne kiyimuka ne kiyimirira; laba ebinywa byammwe ne bikyebungulula ne bikivuunamira.”
8 Nɔviawo gblɔ nɛ fewuɖutɔe be, “Ekema ɖe nèdi be yeazu fia ɖe mía dzia?” Ale wogalé fui ɖe edzi wu le eƒe drɔ̃e la kple eƒe nyawo ta.
Baganda be ne bamugamba nti, “Olowooza olitufuga? Olowooleza ddala nti tulibeera baddu bo?” Olwo ne beeyongera nnyo okumukyayira ddala olw’ekirooto kye n’ebigambo bye.
9 Yosef gaku drɔ̃e bubu, eye wògalĩi na nɔviawo be, “Mise nye drɔ̃e si megaku la ɖa. Ɣe, ɣleti kple ɣletivi wuiɖekɛ de ta agu nam!”
Ate n’aloota ekirooto ekirala n’akitegeeza baganda be, n’agamba nti, “Ndoose ekirooto ekirala: ne ndaba enjuba n’omwezi n’emmunyeenye ekkumi n’emu nga binvuunamira.”
10 Azɔ ya la, elĩ drɔ̃e la na fofoa kple nɔviawo siaa, ke fofoa ka mo nɛ hebiae be, “Drɔ̃e ka tɔgbie nye esia? Ɖe nye kple dawò kple nɔviwòwo míava de ta agu na wò gbe ɖekaa?”
Naye bwe yakitegeeza kitaawe ng’ali wamu ne baganda be, kitaawe n’amunenya ng’agamba nti, “Kirooto ki kino ky’oloose? Ddala nze ne nnyoko awamu ne baganda bo tulijja ne tuvuunama mu maaso go?”
11 Nɔviawo ʋã ŋui ɖe edzi wu, gake fofoa ya de ŋugble le nya la ŋuti.
Baganda be ne bamukwatirwa obuggya, kyokka ye kitaabwe n’akuuma ekigambo ekyo mu mutima gwe.
12 Gbe ɖaka la, Yosef nɔviwo kplɔ wo fofo ƒe alẽwo yi gbedzi le Sekem.
Awo baganda ba Yusufu ne bagenda okumpi ne Sekemu okulunda ekisibo kya kitaabwe.
13 Israel gblɔ na Yosef be, “Abe ale si nènyae ene la, nɔviwòwo le alẽawo dzi kpɔm le teƒe si te ɖe Sekem ŋu. Va madɔ wò ɖe nɔviwòwo gbɔ.” Yosef ɖo eŋu be, “Enyo.”
Isirayiri n’alyoka agamba Yusufu nti, “Nga baganda bo bwe balundira e Sekemu, jjangu nkutume gye bali.” Yusufu n’amuddamu nti, “Nzuuno ntuma.”
14 Ale wògblɔ nɛ be, “Yi nàkpɔe ɖa be nu sia nu le edzi yim nyuie na nɔviwòwo kple woƒe lãwo hã, eye nàva gblɔe nam.” Ale wòɖoe ɖa le Hebron ƒe Balime. Esime Yosef ɖo Sekem la,
N’alyoka amugamba nti, “Genda kaakano olabe obanga baganda bo n’ekisibo bali bulungi, okomewo ontegeeze.” Awo n’amutuma okuva mu kiwonvu kya Kebbulooni, n’atuuka e Sekemu.
15 ŋutsu aɖe kpɔe le gbea dzi, eye wòbiae be, “Ame ka dim nèle?”
Awo omusajja n’amulaba ng’atangatangira ku ttale, n’amubuuza nti, “Onoonya ki?”
16 Yosef ɖo eŋu be, “Nɔvinyewo kple woƒe alẽwo dim mele; èkpɔ wo nama?”
N’amuddamu nti, “Noonya baganda bange, nkwegayiridde mbuulira gye balundira ekisibo.”
17 Ŋutsu la ɖo eŋu be, “Ɛ̃, womegale afi sia o; mese nɔviwòwo nɔ gbɔgblɔm be yewoayi Dotan.” Ale Yosef dze wo yome yi Dotan, eye wòkpɔ wo le afi ma.
Omusajja n’amuddamu nti, “Beeyongerayo, kubanga nabawulira nga bagamba nti, ‘Ka tugende e Dosani.’” Awo Yusufu n’agoberera baganda be n’abasanga e Dosani.
18 Ke esi wògbɔna la, wodze sii tso adzɔge ke, eye woɖo be yewoawui!
Baganda be ne bamulengera ng’akyali wala, era bwe yali nga tannabasemberera ne bateesa bamutte.
19 Wogblɔ na wo nɔewo be, “Drɔ̃ekula ma gbɔna ɖaa!
Ne bagambagana nti, “Sekalootera wuuyo ajja.
20 Mina míawui atsɔ eƒe ŋutilã aƒu gbe ɖe vudo siawo dometɔ ɖeka me, eye míagblɔ be lã wɔadã aɖee vuvui. Ekema míakpɔ nu si ado tso eƒe drɔ̃ekuku la me ɖa.”
Kale mujje tumutte, tumusuule mu kimu ku binnya; tuligamba nti, ‘Ensolo enkambwe ye yamulya; tulabe ebirooto bye bwe birituukirira.’”
21 Esi Ruben se nya sia la, edze agbagba be yeaɖee tso woƒe asi me. Egblɔ be, “Migana míawui o.
Naye Lewubeeni bwe yakiwulira n’agezaako okumuwonya mu mikono gyabwe n’agamba nti, “Tetumutta.
22 Migakɔ ʋu aɖeke ɖi o. Midae ɖe vudo sia me le gbegbe la, gake migade asi eŋu o.” Ruben gblɔ nya sia be yeaɖee tso woƒe asi me, eye yeakplɔe ayi na fofoa.
Tuleme kuyiwa musaayi; ka tumusuule mu bunnya buno wano mu nsiko. Temumuteekako mukono gwammwe.” Yayogera bw’atyo alyoke amuwonye mu mikono gyabwe, amuddize kitaawe.
23 Eya ta esi Yosef ɖo nɔviawo gbɔ la, woɖe eƒe awu ʋlaya la le eŋu,
Awo Yusufu bwe yatuuka ku baganda be ne bamwambulamu ekyambalo kye eky’amabala amangi kye yali ayambadde:
24 eye wolée da ɖe vudo aɖe si me tsi menɔ o la me.
ne bamutwala ne bamusuula mu bunnya obwali obukalu nga tebuliimu mazzi.
25 Wonɔ anyi, ɖu nu; kasia wokpɔ kposɔ aɖewo le didiƒe gbɔna wo gbɔ. Wonye Ismaeletɔ asitsala siwo tso Gilead la, eye wotsɔ aŋe, lifi kple kotoklobo yina ɖe Egipte.
Awo bwe baatuula okulya, ne bayimusa amaaso ne balengera ekibiina ky’Abayisimayiri nga bava e Gireyaadi, ng’eŋŋamira zaabwe zeettise ebyakaloosa, n’envumbo ne mooli nga bali mu lugendo babitwala e Misiri.
26 Yuda gblɔ na nɔviawo be, “Viɖe ka míakpɔ ne míewu mía nɔvi, eye míetsyɔ nu eƒe ʋu dzi?
Yuda kwe kugamba baganda be nti, “Kitugasa ki okutta muganda waffe n’okuyiwa omusaayi gwe?
27 “Mina míadzrae na Ismaeletɔwo, eye míade asi eŋu o, elabena mía nɔviŋutsue; míawo ŋutɔ míaƒe ŋutilã kple ʋue.” Nɔviawo lɔ̃ ɖe edzi.
Tumuguze Abayisimayiri. Omukono gwaffe guleme okumubaako, kubanga muganda waffe, omubiri gwaffe gwennyini.” Baganda be ne bakkiriziganya naye.
28 Ale esi Midiansitsalawo va ɖo wo gbɔ la, woɖe Yosef le vudo la me, dzrae na Ismaeletɔwo klosalo blaeve, eye wokplɔe yi Egipte.
Abasuubuzi, Abayisimayiri bwe baabatuukako ne baggya Yusufu mu bunnya, ne bamuguza Abayisimayiri. Baamubaguza ebitundu bya ffeeza amakumi abiri; ne bamutwala e Misiri.
29 Ruben menɔ anyi hafi nɔviawo dzra Yosef o. Emegbe esi wòtrɔ gbɔ la, eyi be yeaɖe Yosef le vudo la me, ke esi wòkpɔ be Yosef megale vudoa me o la, evee ŋutɔ, eye wòdze eƒe awuwo.
Lewubeeni bwe yadda n’alaga ku bunnya n’alaba nga Yusufu taliimu, n’ayuza engoye ze,
30 Efa avi hegblɔ na nɔviawo be, “Ɖevi la megale vudo la me o; ke afi ka nye ya mayi fifia?”
n’addayo eri baganda be n’abagamba nti, “Omwana taliiyo. Kale naamunoonyeza wa?”
31 Nɔviawo wu gbɔ̃ aɖe, eye wotsɔ Yosef ƒe awuwo bliba ɖe gbɔ̃ la ƒe ʋu me.
Awo ne baddira ekyambalo kya Yusufu, ne batta embuzi, ne bakinnyika mu musaayi.
32 Wotsɔ awu la yi na wo fofo be wòakpɔ ɖa be ame ka tɔe mahã. Wogblɔ nɛ be, “Míekpɔ awu sia le gbedzi. Yosef tɔe loo alo menye etɔe oa?”
Ne baddira ekyambalo ekyo eky’amabala amangi ne bakitwalira kitaabwe ne bamugamba nti, “Twalaba ekyambalo kino, kikebere olabe obanga kye kya mutabani wo.”
33 Wo fofo kpɔe dze sii enumake. Efa avi gblɔ be, “Ɛ̃, vinye ƒe awue. Lã wɔadã aɖee lée; eme kɔ ƒãa be lã wɔadã aɖe vuvu Yosef.”
N’akyetegereza n’agamba nti, “Kye kyambalo kya mutabani wange! Ensolo enkambwe yamulya. Ddala Yusufu yataagulwataagulwa.”
34 Israel dze eƒe awuwo, ta akpanya, eye wòfa konyi le via ƒe ku ta kɔsiɖa geɖewo.
Awo Yakobo n’ayuza ebyambalo bye, n’akungubagira Yusufu okumala ebbanga ddene.
35 Ƒometɔwo katã dze agbagba be yewoafa akɔ nɛ do kpoe. Egblɔna be, “Medi be maku le vinye la fafa me,” eye wògawoa avi hehehe! (Sheol h7585)
Batabani be bonna ne bawala be ne bagenda gy’ali okumusanyusa, kyokka ye n’atakkiriza kusanyusibwa. N’agamba nti, “Nedda, ndikka emagombe nga nkyakungubagira omwana wange Yusufu.” Bw’atyo Yakobo n’akungubagira nnyo Yusufu. (Sheol h7585)
36 Midiantɔwo kplɔ Yosef yi Egipte, eye wodzrae na Potifar, ame si nye Egipte fia, Farao ƒe aƒedzikpɔla kple eŋudzɔsrafowo ƒe amegã.
Mu kiseera kyekimu Abamidiyaani bwe baatuuka e Misiri, Yusufu ne bamuguza Potifali, omu ku bakungu ba Falaawo; omukungu oyo ye yali omukulu wa bambowa.
