< Mose 1 43 >
1 Ke dɔwuame sesẽ la nu mebɔbɔ kura le anyigba la dzi o.
Indlala yasisiba nzima elizweni.
2 Esi bli si wotsɔ tso Egipte nɔ vɔvɔm la, wo fofo gblɔ na wo be, “Migayi ne miaƒle nuɖuɖu sue aɖe vɛ na mí.”
Kwasekusithi sebeqedile ukudla ababebuye lakho eGibhithe, uyise wathi kubo: Buyelani, lisithengele ukudla okulutshwana.
3 Ke Yuda gblɔ nɛ be, “Ŋutsu la te gbe ɖe edzi na mí be, ‘Miagakpɔ nye ŋkume o, negbe ɖeko mia nɔvi la anɔ mia ŋu hafi!
UJuda wasekhuluma kuye wathi: Leyondoda yasiqonqosela yathi: Kalisoze libubone ubuso bami ngaphandle kokuthi umnawenu libe laye.
4 Ne míakplɔ mía nɔvi ayii la, ekema míayi aɖaƒle nuɖuɖu vɛ na wò.
Uba uthuma umnawethu lathi, sizakwehla siyekuthengela ukudla,
5 Míate ŋu ayi o, negbe ɖeko nàna Benyamin nayi kpli mí hafi.’”
kodwa uba ungamthumi, kasiyikwehla, ngoba leyondoda yathi kithi: Kalisoze libubone ubuso bami ngaphandle kokuthi umnawenu lilaye.
6 Israel fa konyi be, “Nu kae dɔ mi ɖa be miagblɔ nɛ be nɔviŋutsu bubu gale yewo si? Nu ka ta miawɔm alea ɖo?”
UIsrayeli wasesithi: Lenzelani okubi kimi ngokuyazisa leyondoda ukuthi liselomnawenu?
7 Wogblɔ nɛ be, “Ŋutsu la bia nya mí tsitotsito tso míaƒe ƒome ŋu. Edi be yeanya ne mía fofo le agbe, eye wòbia be nɔvi bubu gale mía si mahã? Nu sia tae míegblɔe nɛ ɖo. Aleke míate ŋu anya be agblɔ be, ‘Mikplɔ mia nɔvi suetɔ vɛ nam’?”
Basebesithi: Leyondoda yabuzisisa mayelana lathi langezihlobo zethu, isithi: Uyihlo usaphila yini? Lilomnawenu yini? Sayilandisela ngalawomazwi; ukwazi sasikwazi yini ukuthi izakuthi: Yehlani lomnawenu?
8 Yuda gblɔ na fofoa Israel be, “Ɖe asi le ɖevi la ŋu nam ne míadze mɔ; ne menye nenema o la, dɔ awu mí katã míaku, menye míawo ɖeɖe koe aku o: wò ŋutɔ hã kple mía vi suewo siaa aku.
UJuda wasesithi kuIsrayeli uyise: Thuma umfana lami; besesisukuma sihambe, ukuze siphile singafi, lathi, lawe, labantwanyana bethu.
9 Makpɔ eƒe dedinɔnɔ gbɔ. Ne nyemekplɔe gbɔe na wò o la, ekema na fɔɖiɖi la nanɔ dzinye tegbee.
Mina ngizakuba yisibambiso sakhe; uzambiza esandleni sami; uba ngingambuyisi kuwe ngimbeke phambi kwakho, ngizakuba lecala kuwe zonke izinsuku.
10 Nenye ɖe nèɖe asi le eŋu nam la, anye ne míede gbɔ xoxo.”
Isibili uba besingalibalanga, qotho ngabe khathesi sesibuyile kabili.
11 Ale wo fofo, Israel gblɔ na wo mlɔeba be, “Ne wòanɔ nenema kokoko la, ekema nu suetɔ si miawɔ la koe nye be miado agba na miaƒe tedziwo kple nu nyuitɔ siwo le míaƒe anyigba dzi la: lifi, anyitsi, ami ʋeʋĩ, kotoklobo, ayedee kple newo, eye miatsɔ wo ayi ɖana ŋutsu la.
UIsrayeli uyise wasesithi kubo: Uba kunjalo khathesi, yenzani lokhu; thathani okwezithelo ezikhethiweyo zelizwe ezitsheni zenu, liyehlisele leyondoda isipho, inhlaka eyingcosana, loluju oluyingcosana, isinongo, lemure, imkelu yepistakiyo, lama-alimondi;
12 Mitsɔ ga teƒe eve ɖe asi, ale be miate ŋu axe ga si wogbugbɔ de miaƒe kotokuwo me la, elabena ɖewohĩ ame aɖe ƒe vodadae,
lithathe imali iphindwe kabili esandleni senu; futhi imali eyabuyiselwayo emlonyeni wamasaka enu liyibuyisele esandleni senu, mhlawumbe kwaba yisiphosiso.
13 eye miakplɔ mia nɔvia ayii!
Lithathe futhi umfowenu, lisukume, libuyele kuleyondoda.
14 Mawu Ŋusẽkatãtɔ la nave mia nu le ŋutsu la ŋkume, ale be wòaɖe asi le Simeon ŋu, eye wòana Benyamin natrɔ gbɔ. Ne ava eme kokoko be wòaku, eye maxa nu hã la, ekema nenɔ nenema ko faa.”
UNkulunkulu uSomandla kaliphe isihawu phambi kwaleyondoda, ukuze alikhululele omunye umfowenu loBhenjamini. Mina-ke, uba ngemukwa abantwana, ngiyemukwa.
15 Ale wotsɔ nunanawo kple ga home teƒe eve kpe ɖe Benyamin ŋu yi Egipte, eye wodo ɖe Yosef ŋkume.
Amadoda asethatha lesosipho, athatha imali ephindwe kabili esandleni sawo loBhenjamini; asukuma ehlela eGibhithe, ema phambi kukaJosefa.
16 Esi Yosef kpɔ be wokplɔ Benyamin vɛ la, egblɔ na eƒe aƒedzikpɔla be, “Ame siawo aɖu nu kplim ŋdɔ sia; kplɔ wo yi aƒe me, eye nàdzra ɖo ɖe kplɔ̃ gã aɖe ɖoɖo ŋu.”
Kwathi uJosefa embona uBhenjamini elabo, wathi kumphathi wendlu yakhe: Ngenisa lamadoda endlini, uhlabe isifuyo, ulungise, ngoba lamadoda azakudla lami emini.
17 Ale aƒedzikpɔla la wɔ nu si wogblɔ nɛ la, eye wòkplɔ wo yi Yosef ƒe fiasã me.
Indoda yenza njengoba uJosefa etshilo, lendoda yawangenisa amadoda endlini kaJosefa.
18 Esi wokpɔ teƒe si wokplɔ wo yinae la, vɔvɔ̃ ɖo wo ŋutɔ. Wogblɔ be, “Ga si wogbugbɔ de míaƒe kotokuawo me la tae. Edi be wòadze abe ɖe míefi ga la ene, ale be yeawɔ mí kluviwo, eye yeaxɔ míaƒe tedziwo.”
Amadoda asesesaba, ngoba engeniswe endlini kaJosefa; athi: Singenisiwe ngenxa yemali eyabuyiselwa emasakeni ethu kuqala, ukuze asijume ehlele phezu kwethu, asithathe sibe yizigqili, labobabhemi bethu.
19 Esi woɖo fiasã la ƒe agbo nu la, wote ɖe Yosef ƒe aƒedzikpɔla ŋu,
Asesondela endodeni eyayingumphathi wendlu kaJosefa, akhuluma kuyo emnyango wendlu,
20 eye wogblɔ nɛ be, “Amegã, esi míeva Egipte va ƒle nuɖuɖu zi gbãtɔ,
athi: Mayuyu nkosi yami! Sehla lokwehla kuqala ukuthenga ukudla.
21 eye esi míetrɔ yina aƒe la, míetsi afi aɖe dɔ, eye míeʋu míaƒe kotokuwo nu. Kasia míekpɔ be ga si míexe ɖe blia ta la le míaƒe kotokuawo me. Ga lae nye esi míetrɔ vɛ,
Kwasekusithi sesifike endlini yezihambi, savula amasaka ethu, khangela-ke, imali yalowo lalowo yayisemlonyeni wesaka lakhe, imali yethu ngesisindo sayo; siyibuyisile esandleni sethu.
22 kpe ɖe ga si míatsɔ aƒle bli fifia la ŋu. Ale si tututu ga la wɔ hafi ge ɖe míaƒe kotokuwo me la, míenya o.”
Sehle lenye imali layo esandleni sethu, ukuthenga ukudla. Kasazi ukuthi ngubani ofake imali yethu emasakeni ethu.
23 Aƒedzikpɔla la gblɔ na wo be, “Migatsi dzi ɖe eŋu o; miaƒe Mawu, ɛ̃, mia fofowo ƒe Mawu ŋutɔe anya tsɔ ga la de miaƒe kotokuawo me, elabena míawo míexɔ ga la le mia si pɛpɛpɛ.” Eɖe Simeon le gaxɔ me, eye wòkplɔe va nɔviawo gbɔ.
Wasesithi: Ukuthula kakube kini, lingesabi. UNkulunkulu wenu loNkulunkulu kayihlo ulinikile inotho emasakeni enu. Imali yenu yeza kimi. Wasemkhuphela kubo uSimeyoni.
24 Azɔ wokplɔ wo yi Yosef gbɔ le fiasã la me. Wona tsi wo be woaklɔ afɔ, eye wona nuɖuɖu woƒe tedziwo.
Indoda yasiwangenisa amadoda endlini kaJosefa, yawanika amanzi; asegeza inyawo zawo; yasinika obabhemi bawo ukudla.
25 Nɔviawo nɔ klalo be yewoatsɔ nunanawo ana Yosef ne eva le ŋdɔ me, elabena wogblɔ na wo be wole nu ɖu ge le afi ma.
Aselungisa isipho waze wafika uJosefa emini, ngoba ayezwile ukuthi bazakudla isinkwa lapho.
26 Esi Yosef va la, wotsɔ nunanawo nɛ, eye wode ta agu nɛ.
Kwathi uJosefa esefikile endlini, amlethela endlini isipho esasisesandleni sawo, amkhothamela emhlabathini.
27 Ebia woƒe agbe ta, eye wòbia wo be, “Aleke mia fofo, amegãɖeɖi si ƒe nya miegblɔ nam la le? Egale agbea?”
Wasewabuza impilo wathi: Uyaphila uyihlo yini, ixhegu elalikhuluma ngalo? Lisaphila yini?
28 Woɖo eŋu be, “Ɛ̃, ele agbe, eye eli nyuie hã.” Wogade ta agu nɛ abe tsã ene.
Asesithi: Inceku yakho ubaba isekhona, isaphila. Asekhothamela phansi amkhonza.
29 Ekpɔ dadavia, Benyamin dũu, eye wòbia be, “Mia nɔvi suetɔ si ƒe nya miegblɔ nam lae nye esia?” Egblɔ na Benyamin be, “Vinye, èfɔa? Mawu nave nuwò.”
Wasephakamisa amehlo akhe, wabona uBhenjamini umfowabo, indodana kanina, wathi: Nguye lo umnawenu omncinyane yini elakhuluma ngaye kimi? Wathi futhi: UNkulunkulu kabe lomusa kuwe, ndodana yami.
30 Tete Yosef tso kpla, eye wòdo go le xɔa me, elabena eƒe lɔlɔ̃ na dadavia, Benyamin ʋuʋu eƒe dzi ale gbegbe be wònɔ nɛ be wòado go aɖafa avi. Eyi eƒe xɔ gã me, eye wòfa avi hehehe.
UJosefa wasephangisa, ngoba imibilini yakhe yatshisekela umfowabo; wadinga indawo yokukhala inyembezi; wangena ekamelweni eliphakathi, wakhala inyembezi khona.
31 Le esia megbe la, efu mo, eye wòdo go. Eɖu eɖokui dzi hegblɔ be, “Mina míaɖu nu.”
Esegezile ubuso bakhe, waphuma; esezibambile wathi: Fakani isinkwa.
32 Yosef ɖeka nɔ kplɔ̃ ŋu, nɔviawo nɔ kplɔ̃ bubu ŋu, eye Egiptetɔwo hã nɔ kplɔ bubu sãa ŋu, elabena Egiptetɔwo doa vlo Hebritɔwo, eye womeɖua nu kpli wo o.
Bamfakela yedwa, lawo wodwa, lamaGibhithe, ayesidla laye, wodwa, ngoba amaGibhithe ayengedle isinkwa lamaHebheru, ngoba lokho kwakuyisinengiso kumaGibhithe.
33 Yosef fia teƒe si nɔviawo anɔ le woƒe kplɔ̃ ŋu la wo, eye wòɖo wo ɖe tsitsi nu, tso tsitsitɔ dzi va se ɖe ɖevitɔ dzi. Nu sia wɔ nuku na wo ŋutɔ!
Asehlala phambi kwakhe, izibulo njengobuzibulo balo, lecinathunjana njengobucinathunjana balo; amadoda asemangala enye kwenye.
34 Ena woka nuɖuɖu na wo tso eya ŋutɔ ƒe kplɔ̃ dzi. Ena wona nuɖuɖu Benyamin wòsɔ gbɔ zi atɔ̃ wu ame bubuawo tɔ. Emegbe la, wona aha wo wono. Dzi dzɔ wo ŋutɔ.
Wasewabela kulokhu okwakuphambi kwakhe; kodwa isabelo sikaBhenjamini saphindwa kahlanu okwedlula isabelo sawo wonke. Anatha asenatha kakhulu laye.
