Mose 1 41
1 Le ƒe eve megbe la, Farao ku drɔ̃e gbe ɖeka le zã me be yetsi tsitre ɖe Nil tɔsisi la to.
And two yeeres after, Pharaoh also dreamed, and beholde, he stoode by a riuer,
2 Tete nyi dami adre do tso tɔsisi la me, eye wonɔ gbe ɖum.
And loe, there came out of the riuer seuen goodly kine and fatfleshed, and they fedde in a medowe:
3 Emegbe nyi bubu adre do tso tɔsisi la me, ke woawo ɖi ku glãŋuiglãŋui, eye woƒe axaƒutiwo do. Woyi ɖatsi tsitre ɖe nyinɔ dami adreawo gbɔ.
And loe, seuen other kine came vp after the out of the riuer, euill fauoured and leane fleshed, and stoode by the other kine vpon the brinke of the riuer.
4 Nyi ɖikuawo lé nyinɔ damiawo mi! Tete Farao nyɔ!
And the euilfauoured and leane fleshed kine did eate vp the seuen welfauoured and fatte kine: so Pharaoh awoke.
5 Egayi alɔ̃ me kaba, eye wògaku drɔ̃e bubu. Azɔ ya la, ekpɔ bli adre siwo ʋã nyuie la le bliti ɖeka dzi.
Againe he slept, and dreamed the second time: and beholde, seuen eares of corne grewe vpon one stalke, ranke and goodly.
6 Enumake bli bubu adre gado ɖe bliti la dzi, ke esiawo ya meʋã kura o, eye ɣedzeƒeya na woyrɔ.
And loe, seuen thinne eares, and blasted with the east winde, sprang vp after them:
7 Bli yɔyrɔe siawo mi bli ʋaʋãwo! Farao ganyɔ, eye wòdze sii be drɔ̃e sɔŋ ko wonye.
And the thinne eares deuoured the seuen ranke and full eares. then Pharaoh awaked, and loe, it was a dreame.
8 Esi ŋu ke, eye wòbu drɔ̃eawo ŋu la, etsi dzimaɖi ŋutɔ le nu si drɔ̃eawo ate ŋu aɖe afia la ŋu. Eyɔ afakalawo kple nunyalawo katã le Egiptenyigba dzi ƒo ƒu, eye wòlĩ drɔ̃eawo na wo, ke wo dometɔ aɖeke mete ŋu ɖe wo gɔme o.
Nowe when the morning came, his spirit was troubled: therefore he sent and called all the soothsayers of Egypt, and all the wise men thereof, and Pharaoh tolde them his dreames: but none coulde interprete them to Pharaoh.
9 Tete fia ƒe ahakula gblɔ na Farao be, “Egbe la, meɖo ŋku nye nu vɔ̃ dzi.
Then spake the chiefe butler vnto Pharaoh, saying, I call to minde my faultes this day.
10 Ɣe aɖe ɣi va yi esi nèdo dɔmedzoe ɖe mí ame eve ŋu, eye nède nye kple aboloƒola gaxɔ me le ŋuwòdzɔlawo ƒe amegã ƒe mɔ me la,
Pharaoh being angrie with his seruantes, put me in ward in the chiefe stewards house, both me and the chiefe baker.
11 nye kple aboloƒola míeku drɔ̃e gbe ɖeka le zã me.
Then we dreamed a dreame in one night, both I, and he: we dreamed eche man according to the interpretation of his dreame.
12 Míelĩ drɔ̃eawo na Hebri ɖekakpui aɖe, ame si nye ŋuwòdzɔlawo ƒe amegã la ƒe kluvi le gaxɔa me, eye wòɖe drɔ̃eawo gɔme na mí.
And there was with vs a yong man, an Ebrew, seruant vnto the chiefe steward, whome when we told, he declared our dreames to vs, to euery one he declared according to his dreame.
13 “Eye nu sia nu va eme tututu abe ale si wògblɔe ene; nye ahakudɔ gaka asinye, wotso ta le aboloƒola nu, eye wotɔ eƒe ŋutilã ɖe ati nu.”
And as he declared vnto vs, so it came to passe: for he restored me to mine office, and hanged him.
14 Farao ɖo du ɖe Yosef enumake. Woɖee le gaxɔa me kaba; eko ta, di awu bubuwo do alɔtsɔtsɔe, eye wòdo ɖe Farao ŋkume.
Then sent Pharaoh, and called Ioseph, and they brought him hastily out of prison, and he shaued him, and chaunged his rayment, and came to Pharaoh.
15 Farao gblɔ na Yosef be, “Meku drɔ̃e aɖe le zã si va yi la me, gake ame siawo dometɔ aɖeke mete ŋu ɖe egɔme nam o. Ke mese be ètea ŋu ɖea drɔ̃ewo gɔme, eya ta mena woyɔ wò nam.”
Then Pharaoh sayde to Ioseph, I haue dreamed a dreame, and no man can interprete it, and I haue hearde say of thee, that when thou hearest a dreame, thou canst interprete it.
16 Yosef gblɔ na Farao be, “Nyemate ŋu aɖe drɔ̃e la gɔme le ɖokuinye si o, ke Mawu ya ate ŋu aɖe drɔ̃ea gɔme na wò!”
And Ioseph answered Pharaoh, saying, Without me God shall answere for the wealth of Pharaoh.
17 Ale Farao lĩ drɔ̃e la nɛ be, “Metsi tsitre ɖe Nil tɔsisi la to;
And Pharaoh sayde vnto Ioseph, In my dreame, beholde, I stoode by the banke of the riuer:
18 tete nyi dami siwo ƒe lãme nyo nyuie la do tso tɔsisi la me, eye wode asi gbeɖuɖu me le tɔsisi la to.
And lo, there came vp out of the riuer seuen fat fleshed, and welfauoured kine, and they fedde in the medowe.
19 Ke nyi bubu adre do tso tɔsisi la me. Woawo ɖi ku glãŋuiglãŋui; nyemekpɔ nyinɔ ɖiku mawo tɔgbi kpɔ le Egiptenyigba dzi o.
Also loe, seuen other kine came vp after them, poore and very euilfauoured, and leanefleshed: I neuer sawe the like in all the lande of Egypt, for euilfauoured.
20 Nyi ɖiku siawo lé nyinɔ dami siwo do tso tɔsisi la me gbã la mi,
And the leane and euilfauoured kine did eate vp the first seuen fat kine.
21 eye emegbe la, wogaɖi ku glãŋuiglãŋui abe ale si tututu wonɔ tsã la ene, eye menyɔ!
And when they had eaten them vp, it could not be knowen that they had eaten them, but they were still as euilfauoured, as they were at the beginning: so did I awake.
22 “Eteƒe medidi kura hafi megaku drɔ̃e bubu o. Azɔ ya la, bli adre nɔ bliti ɖeka dzi; bliawo katã ʋã nyuie.
Moreouer I sawe in my dreame, and beholde, seuen eares sprang out of one stalke, full and faire.
23 Bli adre bubuwo gado ɖe bliti ma ke dzi, ke woawo meʋã o, ke boŋ woyrɔ.
And lo, seuen eares, withered, thinne, and blasted with the East winde, sprang vp after them.
24 Bli yɔyrɔawo mi bli ʋaʋãwo. “Megblɔ esiawo katã na nye afakalawo, ke wo dometɔ aɖeke mete ŋu ɖe wo gɔme nam o.”
And the thinne eares deuoured the seuen good eares. Nowe I haue tolde the soothsayers, and none can declare it vnto me.
25 Yosef gblɔ na Farao be, “Gɔmeɖeɖe ɖeka koe le drɔ̃e eveawo si. Mawu nɔ nu si wòava wɔ le Egiptenyigba dzi la gblɔm na wò.
Then Ioseph answered Pharaoh, Both Pharaohs dreames are one. God hath shewed Pharaoh, what he is about to doe.
26 Nyi dami adreawo kple bli ʋaʋã adreawo fia be le ƒe adre siwo gbɔna me la, nuɖuɖu abɔ ɖe anyigba la dzi.
The seuen good kine are seuen yeres, and the seuen good eares are seuen yeeres: this is one dreame.
27 Nyi ɖiku adreawo kple bli maʋamaʋã yɔyrɔ adreawo fia be ƒe adre ƒe dɔwuame adze ƒe adre siwo me nuɖuɖu abɔ la yome.
Likewise the seuen thinne and euilfauoured kine, that came out after them, are seuen yeeres: and the seuen emptie eares blasted with the East winde, are seuen yeeres of famine.
28 “Ale Mawu ɖe nu si wɔ ge wòala la fia wò.
This is the thing which I haue saide vnto Pharaoh, that God hath shewed vnto Pharaoh, what he is about to doe.
29 Nuɖuɖu abɔ ɖe Egiptenyigba blibo la dzi le ƒe adre gbãtɔ siwo gbɔna la me.
Beholde, there come seuen yeeres of great plentie in all the land of Egypt.
30 Ke le ƒe mawo yome la, dɔwuame ava ƒe adre, eye enu asesẽ ale gbegbe be nuɖuɖu si bɔ tsã la avɔ, woaŋlɔ woƒe bɔbɔ kpɔ be le Egipte, eye dɔwuame agblẽ anyigba la dzi.
Againe, there shall arise after them seuen yeeres of famine, so that all the plentie shall be forgotten in the land of Egypt, and the famine shall consume the land:
31 “Dɔwuame la nu asesẽ ale gbegbe be ame aɖeke magaɖo ŋku edzi be nuɖuɖu bɔ kpɔ o.
Neither shall the plentie bee knowen in the land, by reason of this famine that shall come after: for it shalbe exceeding great.
32 Drɔ̃e eve siawo le nu eve fiam Farao; wofia be nya siwo megblɔ na mi la le eme va ge kokoko, elabena Mawu ɖo wo da ɖi, eye woava eme kaba.
And therefore the dreame was doubled vnto Pharaoh the second time, because the thing is established by God, and God hasteth to performe it.
33 Susu si mado ɖa lae nye be Farao nadi nunyala gãtɔ kekeake le Egipte, eye nàtsɔe aɖo agbledede ƒe ɖoɖowo nu le anyigba blibo la dzi.
Nowe therefore let Pharaoh prouide for a man of vnderstanding and wisedome, and set him ouer the land of Egypt.
34 Mina Farao natia dɔdzikpɔla ɖe anyigba la dzi be woaxɔ Egipte ƒe nuŋeŋe ƒe atɔ̃lia ɖeka le ƒe adreawo me.
Let Pharaoh make and appoynt officers ouer the lande, and take vp the fift part of the land of Egypt in the seuen plenteous yeeres.
35 Woaƒo nuɖuɖuawo nu ƒu le ƒe nyui siwo gbɔna la me, eye woadzra wo ɖo ɖe avawo me le duwo me na Farao,
Also let them gather all the foode of these good yeeres that come, and lay vp corne vnder the hand of Pharaoh for foode, in the cities, and let them keepe it.
36 ale be nuɖuɖu nasɔ gbɔ ate ŋu akplɔ mí to ƒe adre siwo dɔwuame anɔ anyi le Egipte la me. Ne menye nenema o la, tsɔtsrɔ̃ ava anyigba la dzi.”
So the foode shall be for the prouision of the lande, against the seuen yeeres of famine, which shalbe in the lande of Egypt, that the land perish not by famine.
37 Farao kple eƒe kpeɖeŋutɔwo xɔ Yosef ƒe nyawo.
And the saying pleased Pharaoh and all his seruants.
38 Esi wode ŋugble tso ame si woahiã na dɔ sia ŋu la, Farao gblɔ be, “Ame kae ate ŋu awɔ dɔ vevi sia nyuie wu Yosef? Elabena enye ame si yɔ fũu kple Mawu ƒe Gbɔgbɔ.”
Then saide Pharaoh vnto his seruants, Can we finde such a man as this, in whom is the Spirit of God?
39 Farao trɔ ɖe Yosef gbɔ gblɔ nɛ be, “Zi ale si Mawu ɖe drɔ̃eawo gɔme fia wò ko la, wòe nye nunyala gãtɔ le dukɔa me,
The Pharaoh said to Ioseph, For as much as God hath shewed thee all this, there is no man of vnderstanding, or of wisedome like vnto thee.
40 eya ta metsɔ wò ɖo dɔ blibo la nu. Nya sia nya si nàgblɔ la, woawɔ edzi le Egiptenyigba blibo la dzi. Nye ɖeka koe aganye amegã na wò.”
Thou shalt be ouer mine house, and at thy word shall all my people be armed, onely in the kings throne will I be aboue thee.
41 Ale Farao gblɔ na Yosef be, “Meto esia me tsɔ wò ɖo Egiptenyigba blibo la nu.”
Moreouer Pharaoh said to Ioseph, Behold, I haue set thee ouer all the land of Egypt.
42 Tete Farao ɖe eƒe ŋkɔsigɛ le asi hetsɔ de na Yosef; edo aklala biɖibiɖi ƒe awu nɛ, eye wòde sikakɔsɔkɔsɔ kɔ nɛ.
And Pharaoh tooke off his ring from his hand, and put it vpon Iosephs hand, and arayed him in garments of fine linnen, and put a golden cheyne about his necke.
43 Emegbe la, Farao tsɔ tasiaɖam si kplɔ fia tɔ ɖo la na Yosef, eye afi sia afi si wòyi ko la, ɣli ɖina be, “Midze klo!”
So he set him vpon the best charet that hee had, saue one: and they cryed before him, Abrech, and placed him ouer all the land of Egypt.
44 Farao gblɔ na Yosef be, “Nye, Egipte fia, meka atam na wò be, ànɔ Egiptenyigba blibo la nu le go sia go me.”
Againe Pharaoh saide vnto Ioseph, I am Pharaoh, and without thee shall no man lift vp his hand or his foote in all the land of Egypt.
45 Farao tsɔ ŋkɔ yeye na Yosef be Zafenat Paneah. Ŋkɔ sia gɔmee nye “Amewo ƒe agbeɖela, Mawu ƒe ŋusẽ tɔgbi ɖe ku kple agbe dzi.” Farao tsɔ nyɔnuvi aɖe si ŋkɔe nye Asenat, eye wònye Potifera, ame si nye On nunɔla la, ƒe vinyɔnu na Yosef wòɖe. Ale Yosef zu ame xɔŋkɔ aɖe le Egiptenyigba blibo la dzi.
And Pharaoh called Iosephs name Zaphnath-paaneah: and he gaue him to wife Asenath the daughter of Poti-pherah prince of On. then went Ioseph abrode in the land of Egypt.
46 Exɔ ƒe blaetɔ̃ esi wòge ɖe Farao, Egipte fia ƒe dɔ me. Yosef dzo le Farao gbɔ, eye wòde asi tsatsa me le anyigba blibo la dzi.
And Ioseph was thirtie yeere old when he stood before Pharaoh king of Egypt: and Ioseph departing from the presence of Pharaoh, went throughout all the land of Egypt.
47 Vavã, le ƒe adre gbãtɔwo me la, nukuwo wɔ nyuie ŋutɔ le afi sia afi.
And in the seuen plenteous yeres the earth brought foorth store.
48 Le ƒe mawo me la, Yosef de se be woatsɔ nuku ɖe sia ɖe si woaxa le Egipte la ƒe akpa aɖe ana dziɖuɖu, eye woadzra wo ɖo ɖe avawo me le du gãwo me.
And hee gathered vp all the foode of the seuen plenteous yeeres, which were in the lande of Egypt, and layde vp foode in the cities: the foode of the fielde, that was round about euery citie, layde he vp in the same.
49 Le ƒe adrea ƒe nuwuwu la, avawo yɔ, eye nuɖuɖu si wodzɔ na dziɖuɖu la sɔ gbɔ ale gbegbe be ame aɖeke meganya akɔnta le eŋu o.
So Ioseph gathered wheate, like vnto the sand of the sea in multitude out of measure, vntill he left numbring: for it was without number.
50 Le ɣeyiɣi sia me, hafi dɔwuame ƒe ƒe gbãtɔ naɖo la, Asenat, Potifera si nye On nunɔla ƒe vinyɔnu la dzi vi eve na Yosef.
Now vnto Ioseph were borne two sonnes (before the yeeres of famine came) which Asenath the daughter of Poti-pherah prince of On bare vnto him.
51 Ena ŋkɔ gbãtɔ be Manase si gɔmee nye “Meŋlɔ be.” Nu si Yosef di be yeafia lae nye be Mawu ve ye nu ale gbegbe be yeŋlɔ yeƒe ɖekakpuimefuwo kple yeƒe dzodzo le yewo de be.
And Ioseph called the name of the first borne Manasseh: for God, said he, hath made me forget all my labour and al my fathers houshold.
52 Ena ŋkɔ Via ŋutsu evelia be Efraim si gɔmee nye “Kutsetse,” elabena egblɔ be, “Mawu na metse ku le teƒe sia, afi si menye kluvi le.”
Also hee called the name of the second, Ephraim: For God, sayde he hath made me fruitfull in the land of mine affliction.
53 Ale ƒe adre siwo me nuɖuɖu bɔ le Egipte la wu enu,
So the seuen yeeres of the plentie that was in the land of Egypt were ended.
54 eye dɔwuame ƒe ƒe adreawo dze egɔme abe ale si Yosef gblɔe da ɖi ene. Nukuwo gblẽ le dukɔ siwo ƒo xlã wo la me, ke nuɖuɖu bɔ ɖe avawo me le Egipte.
Then began the seuen yeeres of famine to come, according as Ioseph had saide: and the famine was in all landes, but in all the land of Egypt was bread.
55 Dɔ de asi Egipte dukɔ la wuwu me. Woɖe kuku na Farao be wòana nuɖuɖu yewo. Eɖo wo ɖe Yosef gbɔ kple nya siawo be, “Miwɔ nu sia nu si wòagblɔ na mi be miawɔ la.”
At the length all the lande of Egypt was affamished, and the people cryed to Pharaoh for bread. And Pharaoh said vnto all the Egyptians, Goe to Ioseph: what he sayth to you, doe ye.
56 Esi dɔwuame kaka ɖe anyigba blibo la dzi la, Yosef ʋu avawo, eye wòdzra nuɖuɖu na Egiptetɔwo, elabena dɔwuame la nu sesẽ le anyigba la katã dzi.
When the famine was vpon all the land, Ioseph opened all places, wherein the store was, and solde vnto the Egyptians: for the famine waxed sore in the land of Egypt.
57 Eye amewo tso dukɔwo katã me va Egipte be yewoaƒle bli le Yosef gbɔ, elabena dɔwuame la nu sesẽ le xexea me katã.
And all countries came to Egypt to bye corne of Ioseph, because the famine was sore in all landes.
