Mose 1 44
1 Esi nɔviawo ƒe dzodzoɣi ɖo la, Yosef gblɔ na eƒe aƒedzikpɔla la be wòade bli woƒe kotokuwo katã me, ɖe sia ɖe nayɔ abe ale si wòate ŋu atsɔ ene, eye wòatsɔ ga si ame sia ame xe ɖe blia ta la ade eƒe kotoku me!
Waselaya umphathi wendlu yakhe esithi: Gcwalisa amasaka amadoda ngokudla, okulingene abangakuthwala, ufake imali yalowo lalowo emlonyeni wesaka lakhe.
2 Egblɔ nɛ hã be wòatsɔ ye ŋutɔ yeƒe klosalokplu ade Benyamin ƒe kotoku me, kpe ɖe bliƒlega la ŋu. Ale aƒedzikpɔla la wɔ ɖe nu siwo Yosef gblɔ nɛ la dzi.
Lenkezo yami, inkezo yesiliva, ifake emlonyeni wesaka lecinathunjana kanye lemali yamabele alo. Wenza-ke njengelizwi likaJosefa, ayelikhulumile.
3 Nɔviawo fɔ fɔŋli, eye wodze mɔ kple woƒe tedziawo.
Ekuseni sekusile, amadoda avunyelwa ukuhamba, wona labobabhemi bawo.
4 Ke esi wodo go le dua me teti ko la, Yosef gblɔ na eƒe aƒedzikpɔla la be, “Dze wo yome kaba; na woatɔ, eye nàbia wo be nu ka ta wowɔ nu sia tɔgbi esime menyo dɔ me na wo nenema mahã?
Wona aphuma emzini, ayengakhatshana, uJosefa wasesithi kumphathi wendlu yakhe: Sukuma xotshana lamadoda; lapho usuwaficile uzakuthi kuwo: Liphindiseleleni okuhle ngokubi?
5 Bia wo be, ‘Nu ka ta miefi nye aƒetɔ ƒe klosalokplu si me wònoa nu le, eye wògawɔa eŋu dɔ hena nukaka mahã? Nu vɔ̃ɖi kae nye esi miewɔ?’”
Le kayisiyo enatha kuyo inkosi yami, lehlahlula ngayo sibili yini? Lenze okubi ngelikwenzileyo.
6 Aƒedzikpɔla la yi ɖatu wo, eye wòƒo nu na wo abe ale si woɖo nɛ tututu ene.
Wasewafica, wakhuluma kuwo la amazwi.
7 Wobiae be, “Ao, aƒetɔ, nya ka tututu gblɔm nèle? Nu sia wɔwɔ nade megbe xaa tso wò dɔlawo gbɔ.
Asesithi kuye: Inkosi yami ikhulumelani amazwi anje? Kakube khatshana lezinceku zakho ukwenza into enje.
8 Ɖe míetrɔ ga si míekpɔ le míaƒe blikotokuwo me le Kanaan la vɛ oa? Nu ka ta míafi klosalo alo sika le wò aƒetɔ ƒe aƒe me ɖo?
Khangela, imali esayifica emlonyeni wamasaka ethu sayibuyisela kuwe ivela elizweni leKhanani. Pho, besingeba njani isiliva loba igolide endlini yenkosi yakho?
9 Ne èkpɔ eƒe kplu le mía dometɔ aɖe ƒe kotoku me la, ekema na ame ma naku, eye nàna mí ame mamlɛawo katã miazu kluviwo na wò aƒetɔ tegbetegbe.”
Lowo owezinceku zakho etholwa kuye, kafe, lathi futhi sizakuba yizigqili zenkosi yami.
10 Aƒedzikpɔla la gblɔ be, “Enyo nenema, gake ame si fii la koe azu kluvi, eye ame bubuawo ate ŋu adzo faa.”
Wasesithi: Khathesi-ke, kakube njalo njengamazwi enu; lowo ezatholwa kuye uzakuba yisigqili sami, kodwa lina libe msulwa.
11 Woɖe woƒe kotokuawo le woƒe tedziwo dzi kaba, eye woʋu wo nu.
Basebephangisa, njalo ngulowo lalowo wethulela isaka lakhe emhlabathini, ngulowo lalowo wasevula isaka lakhe.
12 Edze kplua didi le kotokuawo me gɔme tso nɔvi tsitsitɔ dzi nɔ yiyim ɖe tsitsi nu va se ɖe esime wòva ɖo ɖevitɔ dzi. Tete wòkpɔ kplu la le Benyamin ƒe kotoku me!
Waphenya eqala kwenkulu wacina ngecinathunjana; njalo inkezo yatholwa esakeni likaBhenjamini.
13 Wodze woƒe awuwo le dziɖeleameƒo ta. Wogado agba na woƒe tedziwo, eye wogatrɔ yi dua me.
Asedabula izembatho zawo; ileyo laleyo yethwesa ubabhemi wayo, asebuyela emzini.
14 Yosef ganɔ eƒe aƒe me esime Yuda kple nɔviawo trɔ va ɖo, eye wodze klo de ta agu nɛ.
Njalo uJuda wafika labafowabo endlini kaJosefa; ngoba wayesesekhona, bawela emhlabathini phambi kwakhe.
15 Yosef bia be, “Nu ka miete kpɔ be yewoawɔ? Ɖe mienya be ame abe nye ene anya ame si fii oa?”
UJosefa wasesithi kubo: Yisenzo bani elisenzileyo? Belingazi yini ukuthi indoda enjengami ingahlahlula sibili?
16 Yuda gblɔ be, “O, nu ka magblɔ na nye aƒetɔ? Kuku ka míate ŋu aɖe? Aleke míate ŋu aɖe míaƒe fɔmaɖimaɖi afiae? Mawu le to hem na mí ɖe míaƒe nu vɔ̃wo ta. Aƒetɔ, mí katã míetrɔ va be míazu wò kluviwo, míawo kple ame si ƒe kotoku me wokpɔ kplu la le siaa.”
UJuda wasesithi: Sizakuthini enkosini yami? Sizakhulumani? Loba sizazilungisisa njani? UNkulunkulu uthole ububi benceku zakho; khangela, siyizigqili zenkosi yami, thina sonke kanye laye inkezo etholwe esandleni sakhe.
17 Yosef gblɔ be, “Ao, ame si fi kplu la koe anye nye kluvi. Mi ame mamlɛawo ya, miyi mia de le mia fofo gbɔ.”
Kodwa wathi: Kakube khatshana lami ukwenza lokho. Indoda esandleni sayo okutholwe inkezo, nguye ozakuba yisigqili sami; kodwa lina yenyukani ngokuthula liye kuyihlo.
18 Tete Yuda te ɖe eŋu gblɔ be, “O, nye aƒetɔ, ɖe mɔ nam magblɔ nya ɖeka sia ko na wò. Gbɔ dzi ɖi nam vie, elabena menya be àte ŋu awɔ nu sia nu le aɖabaƒoƒo ɖeka me abe wòe nye Farao ene.
UJuda wasesondela kuye wathi: Uxolo nkosi yami! Ake uvumele inceku yakho ikhulume ilizwi endlebeni zenkosi yami, lolaka lwakho lungayivutheli inceku yakho, ngoba unjengoFaro kanye.
19 “Aƒetɔ, èbia mí be mía fofo alo mía nɔvi aɖe li mahã,
Inkosi yami yabuza inceku zayo isithi: Liloyihlo kumbe umfowenu yini?
20 eye míegblɔ be, ‘Ɛ̃, mía fofo, amegãɖeɖi li, eye eƒe tsitsimevi, ŋutsuvi sue aɖe hã li. Dadavia ɖekɛ la ku; eya koe susɔ le dadaa ƒe viwo dome, eye fofoa lɔ̃e ŋutɔ.’
Sasesisithi enkosini yami: Silobaba olixhegu, lomfana wobuxhegu, omncinyane, lomnewabo ufile, njalo yena usele yedwa kunina, loyise uyamthanda.
21 Ègblɔ na mí be, ‘Mikplɔe va afi sia be makpɔe ɖa.’
Wasusithi ezincekwini zakho: Mehliseleni kimi ukuze ngibeke ilihlo lami phezu kwakhe.
22 Ke megblɔ na wò be, ‘Aƒetɔ, ɖevi la mate ŋu adzo le fofoa gbɔ o, elabena eƒe dzodzo ana fofoa naku.’
Sasesisithi enkosini yami: Umfana angetshiye uyise; uba emtshiya uyise, uzakufa uyise.
23 Ke ègblɔ na mí be, ‘Ne mia nɔvi suetɔ manɔ mia dome o la, ekema migava afi sia azɔ o.’
Wasusithi ezincekwini zakho: Uba umnawenu olicinathunjana engehli lani, kaliyikubona ubuso bami futhi.
24 Ale míetrɔ yi wò dɔla mía fofo gbɔ, eye míegblɔ nu si wò nye aƒetɔ gblɔ la nɛ.
Kwasekusithi sesenyukele kunceku yakho ubaba, samazisa amazwi enkosi yami.
25 Esi wògblɔ na mí be, ‘Migayi miaƒle nuɖuɖu vɛ’ la,
Ubaba wasesithi: Buyelani, lisithengele ukudla okulutshwana.
26 míegblɔ be, ‘Míate ŋu ayi o, negbe ɖeko nàɖe mɔ na mí míakplɔ mía nɔvi suetɔ ɖe asi hafi. Eya ko hafi míate ŋu ayi.’
Sasesisithi: Singeke sehle; uba umnawethu olicinathunjana elathi singehla, ngoba singebone ubuso baleyondoda uba umnawethu olicinathunjana singelaye.
27 “Ale mía fofo gblɔ na mí be, ‘Mienya be viŋutsu evee dadaa dzi nam,
Inceku yakho ubaba yasisithi kithi: Lina liyazi ukuthi umkami wangizalela amadodana amabili;
28 eye ɖeka megatrɔ gbɔ o: lã aɖe anya lée kokoko; nyemegakpɔe kpɔ tso ɣe ma ɣi o.
njalo omunye waphuma kimi, ngasengisithi: Isibili udatshuliwe lokudatshulwa; njalo kangimbonanga kuze kube khathesi.
Uba lithatha lalo limsusa ebusweni bami, esehlelwe yingozi, lizakwehlisela-ke izimvu zami engcwabeni ngosizi. (Sheol h7585)
30 Ke azɔ la, aƒetɔ, ne matrɔ ayi fofonye gbɔ, nyemakplɔ ɖevi la ɖe asi o, esi menya be fofonye melɔ̃a nu le ɖevi la gbɔ o,
Khathesi-ke, lapho ngibuyela kunceku yakho ubaba, lomfana singelaye, njengoba umphefumulo wakhe ubotshelwe emphefumulweni wakhe,
31 ne ekpɔ be ɖevi la megbɔ kpli mí o la, mía fofo aku, eye wòazu be míawoe na wòyi yɔ me kple nuxaxa. (Sheol h7585)
kuzakuthi-ke, nxa ebona ukuthi umfana kakho, uzakufa; njalo inceku zakho zizakwehlisela izimvu zenceku yakho ubaba engcwabeni ngosizi. (Sheol h7585)
32 Aƒetɔ, meɖe adzɔgbe na fofonye be makpɔ ɖevi la dzi nyuie. Megblɔ nɛ be, ‘Ne nyemekplɔ ɖevi la gbɔe o la, fɔɖiɖi sia nanɔ dzinye tegbee!’
Ngoba inceku yakho yaba yisibambiso somfana kubaba esithi: Uba ngingambuyiseli kuwe, ngizakuba lecala kubaba zonke izinsuku.
33 Meɖe kuku na wò, na matsi afi sia abe wò kluvi ene ɖe ɖevi la teƒe, eye nàna ɖevi la natrɔ kple nɔvia bubuawo.
Khathesi-ke, ake inceku yakho isale esikhundleni somfana, ibe yisigqili senkosi yami, lomfana enyuke kanye labafowabo.
34 Aleke mate ŋu atrɔ ayi fofonye gbɔ esime nyemakplɔ ɖevi la ɖe asi o? Nyemate ŋu akpɔ nu si nu sia awɔe la teƒe o.”
Ngoba ngingenyukela njani kubaba, umfana ngingelaye, hlezi ngibone okubi okuzafica ubaba?
