< 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.
Pea naʻe ʻave ʻa Siosefa ki ʻIsipite; pea ko Potifa ko e matāpule ʻa Felo, ko e pule ʻoe kau leʻo, ko e tangata ʻIsipite, naʻa ne fakatau ia ʻi he nima ʻoe kau ʻIsimeʻeli, ʻakinautolu naʻa nau ʻomi ia ki ai.
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.
Pea naʻe ia Siosefa ʻa Sihova, pea ko e tangata monūʻia ia, pea naʻa ne ʻi he fale ʻo ʻene ʻeiki, ko e tangata ʻIsipite.
3 Potifar de dzesii be Yehowa li kple Yosef le mɔ tɔxɛ aɖe nu,
Pea mamata ʻene ʻeiki ki he ʻiate ia ʻa Sihova, pea mo e fakamonūʻia ʻe Sihova ʻi hono nima ʻae meʻa kotoa pē naʻa ne fai.
4 eya ta Potifar lɔ̃ Yosef. Etsɔe ɖo eƒe aƒemenuwo kple eƒe dɔwɔnawo dzi kpɔkpɔ nu.
Pea naʻe lelei ʻa Siosefa ʻi hono ʻao, ʻo ne ngāue kiate ia, pea ne fakanofo ia ke leʻohi hono fale, pea naʻa ne tuku ki hono nima ʻa ʻene meʻa kotoa pē.
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,
Pea talu ʻae fakanofo ia ke leʻohi hono fale, pea mo ʻene meʻa fulipē, naʻe tāpuaki ʻe Sihova ʻae fale ʻoe tangata ʻIsipite, koeʻuhi ko Siosefa: pea ko e tāpuaki ʻa Sihova naʻe ʻi heʻene meʻa kotoa pē, ʻi he fale, pea ʻi he ngoue.
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.
Pea naʻa ne tuku ʻene meʻa kotoa pē ki he nima ʻo Siosefa; pea naʻe ʻikai te ne tokangaʻi ʻe ia haʻane meʻa, ka ko e mā pe naʻa ne kai. Pea ko e tangata sino lelei ʻa Siosefa mo toulekeleka.
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.
Pea hili ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni, naʻe fakasiosio ʻae uaifi ʻoe ʻeiki ʻa Siosefa kiate ia; pea ne pehē, Haʻu ke ta mohe.
8 Yosef gbe hegblɔ nɛ be, “Kpɔ ɖa, nye aƒetɔ ka ɖe dzinye, eye wòtsɔm ɖo eƒe aƒemenuwo katã nu.
Ka naʻe ʻikai loto ia ki ai, ʻo ne pehē ki he uaifi ʻo hono ʻeiki, “Vakai, ʻoku ʻikai ʻiloʻi ʻe heʻeku ʻeiki ʻae ngaahi meʻa ʻoku ʻoʻona ʻi he fale, pea kuo ne tuku ia kotoa pē ki hoku nima:
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.”
ʻoku ʻikai ha tokotaha ʻoku lahi hake ʻiate au ʻi he fale ni; pea naʻe ʻikai te ne taʻofi au mei ha meʻa ʻe taha, ka ko Koe pe, koeʻuhi ko hono uaifi koe: pea ʻe fēfē ʻeku fai ʻae hala lahi ni, ke u halaia ai ki he ʻOtua?”
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.
Pea ʻi heʻene lea pe ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē kia Siosefa, naʻe ʻikai te ne tokanga kiate ia, ke na mohe, pe ke ofi kiate ia.
11 Gbe ɖeka esi Yosef nɔ eƒe aƒemedɔwo wɔm, eye ame bubu aɖeke menɔ afi ma lɔƒo o la,
Pea ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ko ia, naʻe pehē, naʻe hū [ʻa Siosefa ]ki fale ke fai ʻene ngāue; pea naʻe ʻikai ha tangata ʻoe kakai ʻoe fale ʻi ai.
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.
Pea naʻa ne puke ki hono kofu, ʻo ne pehē, “Haʻu ke ta mohe;” ka naʻe siʻaki ʻe [Siosefa ]hono kofu ʻi hono nima, ka ka hola ia ʻo hao kituʻa.
13 Esi Potifar srɔ̃ kpɔ be eƒe awu tsi ye si, eye wòsi dzo la,
Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi heʻene mamata kuo tuku hono kofu ki hono nima, pea kuo hola ia kituʻa,
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.
Naʻa ne ui ki he kau tangata ʻo hono fale, ʻo ne pehē kiate kinautolu, “Vakai, kuo ne ʻomi ʻae Hepelū ni ke pauʻusiʻi mai kiate kitautolu: naʻe haʻu ia kiate au ke ma mohe mo ia, pea u kalanga ʻi he leʻo lahi:”
15 Esi wòse medo ɣli be amewo nava xɔ nam la, egblẽ eƒe awu ɖe gbɔnye, eye wòsi do go le aƒea me.”
Pea kuo fanongo ia kuo u hiki hoku leʻo ʻo kalanga, ʻiloange, naʻa ne siʻaki hono kofu kiate au, ka ka hola, pea mole kituaʻā.
16 Etsɔ awu la dzra ɖo, eye esi srɔ̃a gbɔ fiẽ ma la,
Pea naʻa ne tuku maʻu hono kofu, kaeʻoua ke haʻu ʻene ʻeiki.
17 egblɔ nya blibo la nɛ be, “Hebri kluvi ma si nèkplɔ va afi sia la di be yeadɔ gbɔnye sesẽtɔe.
Pea naʻa ne lea kiate ia ʻi he lea ni, ʻo pehē, “Ko e tamaioʻeiki Hepelū naʻa ke ʻomi kiate kitautolu, naʻe haʻu kiate au ke pauʻu mai kiate au.
18 Nye ɣlidodo koe ɖem tso eƒe asi me. Esi dzo hegblẽ eƒe awu ɖe megbe!”
Pea ʻi heʻeku hiki hake hoku leʻo ʻo kalanga, ʻiloange, naʻa ne siʻaki hono kofu kiate au, pea hola kituaʻā.”
19 Esi Potifar se nya sia la, edo dɔmedzoe.
Pea kuo fanongo ʻa ʻene ʻeiki ki he ngaahi lea ʻa hono uaifi, ʻaia naʻa ne lea ʻaki kiate ia, ʻo ne pehē, naʻe fai pehē ʻa hoʻo tamaioʻeiki kiate au; naʻe tupu ai ʻene ʻita lahi.
20 Elé Yosef de gaxɔ me, afi si wodea ga fia Farao ƒe gaxɔmenɔlawo ɖo.
Pea naʻe ʻave ʻa Siosefa ʻe heʻene ʻeiki, ki he fale fakapōpula, ki he potu naʻe haʻi ai ʻae kau pōpula ʻae tuʻi: pea naʻe nofo ai ia ʻi he fale fakapōpula.
21 Ke Yehowa ganɔ kple Yosef le afi ma hã; eve enu, eye wòna gaxɔdzikpɔlawo ƒe amegã ƒe dɔ me trɔ ɖe eŋu.
Ka naʻe ia Siosefa ʻa Sihova, ʻo ne ʻaloʻofa kiate ia, mo ne fakaʻofeina ia ʻi he ʻao ʻoe tauhi fale fakapōpula.
22 Eteƒe medidi o la, gaxɔdzikpɔlawo ƒe amegã la tsɔ gaxɔa dzi kpɔkpɔ de asi na Yosef, eye gaxɔmenɔla bubuawo katã nɔ ete.
Pea naʻe tuku ʻe he tauhi fale fakapōpula ki he nima ʻo Siosefa ʻae kau pōpula kotoa pē naʻe ʻi he fale fakapōpula; pea ko e meʻa kotoa pē naʻa nau fai, naʻe fai maʻana.
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.
Naʻe ʻikai vakai ʻe he tauhi fale fakapōpula ki ha meʻa ʻe taha naʻe ʻi hono nima; koeʻuhi naʻe ʻiate ia ʻa Sihova, pea ko ia naʻa ne fai, naʻe fakamonūʻia ia ʻe Sihova.
