Mose 1 39
1 Esi Ismaeletɔwo kplɔ Yosef yi Egipte la, wodzrae abe kluvi ene na Potifar, ame si nye Egipte fia, Farao ŋumewo dometɔ ɖeka. Eganye Farao ŋu dzɔlawo ƒe amegã kple aƒedzikpɔlawo ƒe amega hã.
UJosefa wasesehliselwa eGibhithe; njalo uPotifa, umphathi kaFaro, induna yabalindi, indoda engumGibhithe, wamthenga esandleni samaIshmayeli, ababemehlisele khona.
2 Yehowa yra Yosef le eƒe aƒetɔ si nye Egiptetɔ la ƒe aƒe me ale gbegbe be nu sia nu si wòwɔna la dzea edzi.
Njalo iNkosi yayiloJosefa, waze waba ngumuntu ophumelelayo; wayesendlini yenkosi yakhe, umGibhithe.
3 Potifar de dzesii be Yehowa li kple Yosef le mɔ tɔxɛ aɖe nu,
Inkosi yakhe yasibona ukuthi iNkosi ilaye, lokuthi konke akwenzayo iNkosi yakuphumelelisa esandleni sakhe.
4 eya ta Potifar lɔ̃ Yosef. Etsɔe ɖo eƒe aƒemenuwo kple eƒe dɔwɔnawo dzi kpɔkpɔ nu.
UJosefa wasethola umusa emehlweni ayo, wayisebenzela; njalo yamenza waba ngumphathi wendlu yayo, lakho konke eyayilakho yakunikela esandleni sakhe.
5 Enumake Yehowa de asi Potifar yayra me ɖe Yosef ta. Eƒe aƒemenyawo katã tsɔ afɔ nyuie; eƒe agblemenukuwo ʋã nyuie, eye eƒe lãwo hã dzi ɖe edzi,
Kwasekusithi kusukela esikhathini eyamenza ngaso umphathi wendlu yayo, lakho konke eyayilakho, iNkosi yabusisa indlu yomGibhithe ngenxa kaJosefa; lesibusiso seNkosi saba phezu kwakho konke eyayilakho, endlini lensimini.
6 eya ta Potifar tsɔ nu siwo katã nɔ esi la dzi kpɔkpɔ de esi. Zi ale si Yosef li ko la, megatsia dzi ɖe naneke ŋu o, negbe nu si wòadi be yeaɖu ko! Ke Yosef nye ɖekakpui dzeɖekɛ aɖe.
Yasitshiya konke eyayilakho esandleni sikaJosefa; yayingazi lutho lwayo, ngaphandle kokudla eyayikudla. Futhi uJosefa wayemuhle ngesimo, ekhangeleka kuhle.
7 Le ɣeyiɣi siawo me la, Potifar srɔ̃ de asi ahiãmoɖoɖo na Yosef me, eye gbe ɖeka la, egblɔ na Yosef be wòadɔ kpli ye.
Kwasekusithi emva kwalezizinto, inkosikazi yenkosi yakhe yaphakamisela amehlo ayo kuJosefa; yathi: Lala lami.
8 Yosef gbe hegblɔ nɛ be, “Kpɔ ɖa, nye aƒetɔ ka ɖe dzinye, eye wòtsɔm ɖo eƒe aƒemenuwo katã nu.
Kodwa wala, wathi enkosikazini yenkosi yakhe: Khangela, inkosi yami kayikwazi okulami endlini, njalo konke elakho ikunikela esandleni sami;
9 Ŋusẽ megale esi wum le aƒe sia me o! Meɖe naneke le nye dzikpɔkpɔ te o, negbe wò ko, elabena srɔ̃e nènye. Aleke mate ŋu awɔ nu vɔ̃ɖi, ŋutasẽnu sia tɔgbi? Anye nu vɔ̃ gã aɖe mawɔ ɖe Mawu ŋu.”
kakho omkhulu kulami endlini le; njalo kayingigodlelanga lutho, ngaphandle kwakho, ngalokhu ukuthi ungumkayo; njalo ngingenza njani lobububi obukhulu, ngone kuNkulunkulu?
10 Ke Potifar srɔ̃ ganɔ nya la ƒom ɖe Yosef nu kokoko gbe sia gbe, gake Yosef do tokui, eye wòdea axa nɛ ale si wòate ŋui.
Kwasekusithi ekukhulumeni kwakhe kuJosefa insuku ngensuku, kazange amlalele, ukulala laye, lokuba laye.
11 Gbe ɖeka esi Yosef nɔ eƒe aƒemedɔwo wɔm, eye ame bubu aɖeke menɔ afi ma lɔƒo o la,
Kwasekusithi ngosuku oluthile wangena endlini ukuyakwenza umsebenzi wakhe, njalo kwakungekho owamadoda endlu lapho endlini,
12 Potifar srɔ̃ va lé awu ɖe Yosef ŋu, eye wògblɔ nɛ be, “Dɔ gbɔnye!” Yosef ʋli le esi, ke le ʋiʋlia me la, eƒe dziwui tsi nyɔnu la si. Yosef si do le xɔa me.
yasimbamba ngesembatho sakhe isithi: Lala lami. Kodwa watshiya isembatho sakhe esandleni sayo, wabaleka, waphumela phandle.
13 Esi Potifar srɔ̃ kpɔ be eƒe awu tsi ye si, eye wòsi dzo la,
Kwasekusithi isibonile ukuthi utshiyile isembatho sakhe esandleni sayo, wabalekela phandle,
14 eyɔ eƒe subɔlawo, eye wògblɔ na wo be, “Mikpɔ ɖa, wokplɔ Hebri ɖekakpui sia vɛ be wòado ŋukpe mí! Eva afi sia be yeadɔ kplim, ke medo ɣli.
yabiza amadoda endlu yayo, yakhuluma kuwo isithi: Bonani, usilethele indoda engumHebheru ukudlala ngathi; uze kimi ukuze alale lami, ngamemeza ngelizwi elikhulu;
15 Esi wòse medo ɣli be amewo nava xɔ nam la, egblẽ eƒe awu ɖe gbɔnye, eye wòsi do go le aƒea me.”
kwasekusithi esezwile ukuthi ngiphakamise ilizwi lami ngakhala, watshiya isembatho sakhe eceleni kwami, wabaleka, waphumela phandle.
16 Etsɔ awu la dzra ɖo, eye esi srɔ̃a gbɔ fiẽ ma la,
Yasisibeka isembatho sakhe eceleni kwayo, yaze yafika inkosi yakhe ekhaya.
17 egblɔ nya blibo la nɛ be, “Hebri kluvi ma si nèkplɔ va afi sia la di be yeadɔ gbɔnye sesẽtɔe.
Njalo yakhuluma kuyo njengalamazwi isithi: Inceku engumHebheru, osilethele yona, izile kimi ukuze idlale ngami;
18 Nye ɣlidodo koe ɖem tso eƒe asi me. Esi dzo hegblẽ eƒe awu ɖe megbe!”
kwasekusithi sengiphakamise ilizwi lami ngakhala, yatshiya isembatho sayo eceleni kwami, yabalekela phandle.
19 Esi Potifar se nya sia la, edo dɔmedzoe.
Kwasekusithi inkosi yakhe isizwe amazwi omkayo, ewakhulume kuyo, esithi: Njengalamazwi inceku yakho yenze kimi, ulaka lwayo lwavutha.
20 Elé Yosef de gaxɔ me, afi si wodea ga fia Farao ƒe gaxɔmenɔlawo ɖo.
Inkosi kaJosefa yasimthatha yamfaka entolongweni, indawo lapho izibotshwa zenkosi ezazibotshelwa khona; wasesiba lapho entolongweni.
21 Ke Yehowa ganɔ kple Yosef le afi ma hã; eve enu, eye wòna gaxɔdzikpɔlawo ƒe amegã ƒe dɔ me trɔ ɖe eŋu.
Kodwa iNkosi yaba loJosefa, yelulela umusa kuye, yasimupha umusa emehlweni enduna yentolongo.
22 Eteƒe medidi o la, gaxɔdzikpɔlawo ƒe amegã la tsɔ gaxɔa dzi kpɔkpɔ de asi na Yosef, eye gaxɔmenɔla bubuawo katã nɔ ete.
Induna yentolongo yanikela-ke esandleni sikaJosefa zonke izibotshwa ezazisentolongweni; lakho konke ezazikwenza lapho, wayengumenzi.
23 Gaxɔdzikpɔlawo ƒe amegã megatsia dzi ɖe naneke ŋuti o, elabena Yosef kpɔa nu sia nu dzi nyuie. Yehowa nɔ kplii, eye nu sia nu dze edzi nɛ nyuie.
Induna yentolongo kayisakhangelanga lutho olwalusesandleni sakhe, ngoba iNkosi yayilaye; lalokho akwenzayo iNkosi yakuphumelelisa.
