< Mose 1 38 >
1 Le ɣe ma ɣi me la, Yuda ʋu le nɔviawo gbɔ heyi Adulam, eye wònɔ ŋutsu aɖe si ŋkɔe nye Hira la gbɔ.
And it fortuned at that tyme that Iudas went from his brethren and gatt him to a man called Hira of Odollam
2 Yuda do go Kanaan nyɔnu aɖe si nye Sua ƒe vi la le afi ma, eye wòɖee.
and there he sawe the doughter of a man called Sua a Canaanyte. And he toke her ad went in vnto her.
3 Efɔ fu, eye wòdzi ŋutsuvi, eye wòna ŋkɔe be Er.
And she conceaued and bare a sonne and called his name Er.
4 Egafɔ fu, dzi ŋutsuvi, eye wòna ŋkɔe be Onan.
And she conceaued agayne and bare a sonne and called him Onan.
5 Egadzi ŋutsuvi ake, eye wòtsɔ ŋkɔ nɛ be Sela; teƒe si wodzii le lae nye Kezib.
And she conceaued the thyrde tyme and bare a sonne whom she called Scla: and he was at Chesyb when she bare hem.
6 Esi via Er tsi la, Yuda na wòɖe nyɔnuvi aɖe si ŋkɔe nye Tamar.
And Iudas gaue Er his eldest sonne a wife whose name was Thamar.
7 Ke Er, Yuda ƒe ŋgɔgbevi nye ŋutsu vɔ̃ɖi aɖe, eya ta Yehowa wui.
But this Er Iudas eldest sonne was wicked in the syghte of the LORde wherfore the LORde slewe him.
8 Yuda gblɔ na Er nɔviŋutsu Onan be, “Ele be nàɖe Tamar abe ale si míaƒe se di tso ame kuku nɔviŋutsu si be wòawɔ ene, ale be Tamar ƒe vi siwo wòadzi na wò la nanyi nɔviwò kukua ƒe dome.”
Than sayde Iudas vnto Onan: goo in to thi brothers wyfe and Marie her and styrre vp seed vnto thy brother.
9 Ke Onan medi be yeadzi vi si womabu abe ye ŋutɔ tɔ ene o, eya ta togbɔ be eɖe Tamar hã la, ɣe sia ɣi si wòadɔ Tamar gbɔ la, enana eƒe ŋutsutsi la duduna ɖe aba la dzi, ale be Tamar mafɔ fu adzi vi si anye nɔvia kukua tɔ o.
And when Onan perceaued that the seed shulde not be his: therfore when he went in to his brothers wife he spylled it on the grounde because he wold not geue seed vnto his brother.
10 Le Yehowa gbɔ la, enye nu vɔ̃ Onan wɔ be wògbe be yemadzi vi na ye nɔvi kukua o, eya ta Yehowa wu eya hã.
And the thinge which he dyd displeased the LORde wherfore he slew him also.
11 Eya ta Yuda gblɔ na toyɔvia, Tamar be megaɖe srɔ̃ azɔ le ɣe ma ɣi me o, ke boŋ wòatrɔ ayi wo de le edzilawo gbɔ, eye wòanye ahosi va se ɖe esime ye vi suetɔ, Sela natsi ate ŋu aɖee. Ke Yuda meɖo le nyateƒe me be Sela naɖee o, gake egblɔ nenema, elabena evɔ̃ be Mawu ava wu eya hã abe ale si wòwu foa eveawo ene. Ale Tamar yi wo de le edzilawo gbɔ.
Than sayde Iudas to Thamar his doughter in lawe: remayne a wydow at thi fathers house tyll Sela my sonne be growne: for he feared lest he shulde haue dyed also as his brethren did. Thus went Thamar and dwelt in hir fathers house.
12 Le ɣeyiɣi aɖe megbe la, Yuda srɔ̃ ku. Le kunuwɔwɔ nɛ vɔ megbe la, Yuda kple exɔlɔ̃, Hira, Adulamtɔ la yi Timna be woakpɔ fukoko na alẽwo dzi.
And in processe of tyme the doughter of Sua Iudas wife dyed. Than Iudas when he had left mornynge went vnto his shepe sherers to Thimnath with his frende Hira of Odollam.
13 Esi ame aɖe gblɔ na Tamar be toa dze Timna mɔ dzi hegbɔna fu ko ge na alẽawo,
And one told Thamar saynge: beholde thy father in lawe goth vp to Thimnath to shere his shepe.
14 eye esi wònya azɔ kɔtɛe be womaɖe mɔ yeaɖe Sela o, togbɔ be Sela tsi azɔ hã la, eɖe eƒe ahovɔ da ɖi, eye wòtsɔ motsyɔvɔ tsyɔ mo, ale be womagadze si ye o. Enɔ anyi ɖe mɔ to le Enaim si le Timna mɔ dzi la ƒe agbo nu.
And she put hyr wydows garmetes of from her and couered her with a clooke and disgyssed herself: And sat her downe at the entrynge of Enaim which is by the hye wayes syde to Thimnath for because she sawe that Sela was growne and she was not geue vnto him to wife.
15 Yuda kpɔe esime wòva yina, eye wòbu be gboloe le eƒe motsyɔvɔ la ta.
When Iuda sawe her he thought it had bene an hoore because she had couered hyr face.
16 Ale Yuda gogoe hebiae be wòana yeadɔ egbɔ, ke menya be ye ŋutɔ yeƒe toyɔvie o. Tamar biae be, “Ho neni nàxe nam?”
And turned to her vnto the waye and sayde come I praye the let me lye with the for he knewe not that it was his doughter in lawe. And she sayde what wylt thou gyue me for to lye with me?
17 Yuda do ŋugbe nɛ be, “Maɖo gbɔ̃vi aɖe ɖe wò tso nye lãwo dome.” Tamar biae be, “Nu ka nàtsɔ ade awɔba, ale be maka ɖe edzi be àɖo gbɔ̃vi la ɖem?”
Tha sayde he I will sende the a kydd fro the flocke. She answered Than geue me a pledge till thou sende it.
18 Yuda biae be, “Enyo, awɔbanu kae nèhiã?” Tamar ɖo eŋu be, “Tsɔ wò ŋkɔsigɛ si nètsɔna dea dzesi wò nuwo kple wò atizɔti nam.” Ale Yuda tsɔ wo nɛ. Tamar lɔ̃ Yuda dɔ egbɔ, eye wòfɔ fu.
Than sayde he what pledge shall I geue the? And she sayde: they sygnett thy necke lace and thy staffe that is in thy hande. And he gaue it her and lay by her and she was with child by him.
19 Le esia megbe la, Tamar gade asi eƒe ahovɔ la tata me abe tsã ene.
And she gatt her vp and went and put her mantell from her ad put on hir widowes rayment agayne.
20 Yuda gblɔ na exɔlɔ̃ Hira, Adulamtɔ la be wòalé gbɔ̃vi la ayi na Tamar, eye wòaxɔ awɔbanuawo vɛ, ke Hira mete ŋu ke ɖe Tamar ŋu o.
And Iudas sent the kydd by his neybure of Odollam for to fetch out his pledge agayne from the wifes hande. But he fownde her not.
21 Hira bia dua me ŋutsuwo be, “Afi ka gbolo si nɔa ŋutsuwo dim le mɔ to le Enaim dua ƒe agbonu la le?” Woɖo eŋu be, “Gbolo aɖeke menɔ afi sia kpɔ o.”
Than asked he the men of the same place saynge: where is the whoore that satt at Enaim in the waye? And they sayde: there was no whoore here.
22 Ale wòtrɔ va Yuda gbɔ, gblɔ nɛ be yemete ŋu ke ɖe eŋu o, eye wògblɔ nya si dua me ŋutsuwo gblɔ nɛ la na Yuda.
And he came to Iuda agayne saynge: I can not fynde her and also the men of the place sayde: that there was no whoore there.
23 Yuda gblɔ be, “Ekema awɔbanuawo netsi egbɔ faa! Míedze agbagba ale si míate ŋui. Ne míegale eyome tim kokoko la, dua me tɔwo ako mí. Meɖo gbɔ̃tsu la ɖee, ke mèkpɔe o.”
And Iuda sayde: let her take it to her lest we be shamed: for I sente the kydd and thou coudest not fynde her.
24 Le ɣleti etɔ̃ megbe la, woɖo du ɖe Yuda be toyɔvia Tamar fɔ fu le gbolowɔwɔ ta. Yuda do ɣli be, “Mihee vɛ, eye miatɔ dzoe!”
And it came to passe that after. iij. monethes one tolde Iuda saynge: Thamar thy doughter in lawe hath played the whoore and with playnge the whoore is become great with childe. And Iuda sayde: brynge her forth ad let her be brente.
25 Ke esi wohee yina wuwu ge la, eɖo du ɖe toa be, “Ame si tɔ ŋkɔsigɛ kple eŋuti ka kple atizɔti sia nye la, eya tututue nye ɖevi si dzi ge megbɔna la fofo. Ènya nane tso ŋkɔsigɛ kple atizɔti sia ŋua?”
And when they brought her forth she sent to her father in lawe saynge: by the ma vnto whome these thinges pertayne am I with childe. And sayd also: loke whose are this seall necklace and staffe.
26 Yuda lɔ̃ be ye tɔwoe, eye wògblɔ be, “Etɔ dzɔ, elabena megbe be nyemawɔ ŋugbedodo dzi atsɔe na vinye, Sela wòaɖe o.” Tso ema dzi la, megadɔ kplii kpɔ o.
And Iuda knewe them saynge: she is more rightwes tha I because I gaue her not to Sela my sone. But he laye with her nomore.
27 Eƒe vidziɣi ɖo, eye wòdzi evenɔvi siwo nye ŋutsuviwo.
When tyme was come that she shulde be delyuered beholde there was. ij. twynnes in hyr wobe.
28 Esi wònɔ ɖeviawo dzim la, vixela la sa ka dzĩ aɖe ɖe ɖevi si do gbɔna gbã la ƒe alɔnu,
And as she traveled the one put out his hande and the mydwife toke and bownde a reed threde aboute it saynge: this wyll come out fyrst.
29 ke ɖevi la he asi ɖe megbe yi dadaa ƒe dɔ me, eye wodzi ɖevi evelia gbã. Vixela la bia be, “Nu ka ta nèdo ŋgɔ na nɔviwòa ɖo?” Tso gbe ma gbe dzi la, woyɔa ɖevi sia be Perez si gɔmee nye “Ŋgɔdodo.”
But he plucked his hande backe agayne and his brother came out. And she sayde: wherfore hast thou rent a rent vppon the? and called him Pharez.
30 Eteƒe medidi hafi wodzi ɖevi si ƒe alɔnu ka dzĩ la le la o. Wona ŋkɔe be Zera.
And afterward came out his brother that had the reade threde about his hade which was called Zarah.
