1 Le nya siawo megbe la, wova gblɔ na Yosef be fofoa ƒe lãmegbegblẽ la nu nɔ sesẽm ɖe edzi kokoko. Ale wòkplɔ Via ŋutsuvi eveawo, Manase kple Efraim, eye woyi ɖakpɔe ɖa.
Mmere bi akyi no, wɔka kyerɛɛ Yosef se, “Wʼagya yare.” Enti Yosef faa ne mmabarima baanu, Efraim ne Manase kaa ne ho kɔsraa no.
2 Eye wogblɔ na Yakob bena, “Kpɔ ɖa viwò Yosef va gbɔwò.” Tete Israel do ŋusẽ nu fɔ henɔ anyi ɖe abatia dzi be yeado gbe nɛ,
Bere a wɔbɔɔ Yakob amanneɛ se, “Wo ba Yosef aba wo nkyɛn rebɛsra wo” no, Yakob miaa nʼani sɔre tenaa ne mpa so.
3 eye wògblɔ na Yosef be, “Mawu Ŋusẽkatãtɔ ɖe eɖokui fiam le Luz, le Kanaanyigba dzi, eye wòyram.
Yakob ka kyerɛɛ Yosef se, “Otumfo Nyankopɔn yii ne ho adi kyerɛɛ me wɔ Lus a ɛwɔ Kanaan asase so. Ɛhɔ na ohyiraa me,
4 Egblɔ nam be, ‘Mawɔ wò nàzu dukɔ gã, eye matsɔ Kanaanyigba sia ana wò kple wò dzidzimeviwo, wòanye mia tɔ tegbetegbe.’
ka kyerɛɛ me se, ‘Mɛma woawo, ama wʼase afɛe. Mɛma wʼasefo ayɛ ɔman kɛse. Mede saa asase yi bɛma wʼasefo afebɔɔ sɛ wɔn agyapade.’
5 Azɔ le viwò eve siawo, Efraim kple Manase, ame siwo wodzi le Egiptenyigba dzi hafi meva la, mele woawo ya xɔm abe nye ŋutɔ vinyewo ene, eye woanyi nye dome abe Ruben kple Simeon ke ene.
“Ɛno nti, mede wo mma baanu a wɔwoo wɔn maa wo ansa na mereba wo nkyɛn wɔ Misraim asase so ha no bɛka me mma no ho. Efraim ne Manase bɛka me mma ho, sɛnea Ruben ne Simeon yɛ me mma no.
6 Ke viwò bubu ɖe sia ɖe ya la, anye wò ŋutɔ tɔ, eye woanyi Efraim kple Manase ƒe dome tso gbɔwò le wò ŋutɔ wò nuwo gome.
Mma foforo biara a wobɛwo wɔn wɔ Efraim ne Manase akyi no na wɔbɛyɛ wo de. Wɔde wɔn bɛka wɔn nuanom no ho wɔ asase a wɔde bɛma wɔn sɛ wɔn agyapade no so.
7 Elabena dawò Rahel dzi vi eve ko, eye wòku esi metso Padan gbɔna Kanaan. Ke esi míegogo Efrat la, meɖii ɖe mɔ to le Efrat” (si nye Betlehem).
Bere a mifi Paddan-Aram reba no, ababaa Rahel wuu wɔ ɔkwan mu ma ɛyɛɛ me yaw. Na aka akwansin kakraa bi na yɛadu Efrat. Ɛno nti, misiee no wɔ Eufrate, a wɔfrɛ no Betlehem no kwankyɛn baabi.”
8 Israel lé ŋku ɖe Yosef ƒe ŋutsuviawo ŋu, eye wòbia be, “Ŋutsuviawoe nye esiawoa?”
Bere a Israel huu Yosef mmabarima no, obisae se, “Na eyinom yɛ hefo?”
9 Yosef ɖo eŋu be, “Ɛ̃, esiawoe nye ŋutsuvi siwo Mawu nam le afii le Egipte.” Israel gblɔ be, “Kplɔ wo te ɖe ŋunye ne mayra wo.”
Yosef buaa nʼagya se, “Wɔyɛ mmabarima a Onyankopɔn de wɔn adom me wɔ ha.” Na Israel kae se, “Fa wɔn bra mʼanim ha na minhyira wɔn.”
10 Israel ƒe tsitsi na eƒe ŋkuwo tsi afã kple afã, eye megatea ŋu kpɔa nu tututu o. Ale Yosef kplɔ viawo te ɖe eŋu kpokploe. Egbugbɔ nu na wo, eye wòkpla asi kɔ na wo.
Saa bere no, esiane onyin nti, na Israel ani so ayɛ wusiwusi a onhu ade papa. Ne saa nti, Yosef de ne mma no kɔɔ ne nkyɛn pɛɛ ma ɔyɛɛ wɔn atuu, fifew wɔn ano.
11 Israel gblɔ na Yosef be, “Nyemebu tsã be magakpɔ wò o, ke azɔ Mawu na mekpɔ viwòwo hã.”
Israel ka kyerɛɛ Yosef se, “Manna mannwene sɛ mehu wʼanim bio da, nanso hwɛ nea Onyame ayɛ. Wama me ho kwan ama mahu wo mma nso.”
12 Tete Yosef ɖe wo ɖa le Israel ƒe atata, eye wòde ta agu, tsyɔ mo anyi.
Yosef maa wɔn so fii Israel kotodwe anim, na ɔno ara nso buu nkotodwe de nʼanim butuw fam.
13 Eye Yosef tsɔ wo ame eveawo; Efraim yi ɖe ɖusime be wòanɔ Israel ƒe miame, eye Manase yi ɖe miame be wòanɔ Israel ƒe ɖusime, eye wòkplɔ wo te ɖe Israel ŋu.
Ɔsɔre no, ɔde ne nsa nifa soo Efraim mu, de no gyinaa Yakob benkum so, na ɔde ne nsa benkum soo Manase mu, de no gyinaa Yakob nifa so bɛn no pɛɛ.
14 Ke Israel tso ga eƒe abɔwo esime wòdi be yeada yeƒe asiwo ɖe ɖeviawo ƒe tawo dzi. Ale eƒe ɖusi nɔ Efraim, ame si nye ɖevitɔ, eye wònɔ eƒe miame la ƒe ta dzi, eye eƒe miasi nɔ Manase, ame si nye tsitsitɔ, eye wònɔ eƒe ɖusime la ƒe ta dzi.
Israel teɛɛ ne nsa nifa de too Efraim a ɔyɛ akumaa no apampam, na ɔde ne nsa benkum no too Manase nso apampam. Ɛwɔ mu sɛ na Manase yɛ abakan de, nanso ɔde ne nsa benkum na ɛtoo nʼapampam.
15 Eyra Yosef kple nya siawo be, “Mawu, fofonye Abraham kple Isak ƒe Mawu, ame si kplɔm le nye agbenɔɣi katã me la nayra ŋutsuvi siawo nukutɔe.
Ohyiraa Yosef se, “Onyankopɔn a mʼagyanom Abraham ne Isak nantew nʼanim, ne me Nyankopɔn a ɔhwɛɛ me sɛ oguanhwɛfo de besi nnɛ no,
16 Mawudɔla si ɖem tso xaxa ɖe sia ɖe me la nayra ɖevi siawo, woade bubu nye ŋkɔ ŋu, eye woade bubu fofonye Abraham kple Isak ƒe ŋkɔwo ŋu. Mawu naɖi ne woazu dukɔ gã aɖe.”
ɔsoro bɔfo a ogyee me fii ɔhaw nyinaa mu no, onhyira saa mmarimaa yi. Wɔmfa me din ne mʼagyanom, Abraham ne Isak din ntoto wɔn, na wɔn ase mfɛe wɔ asase so.”
17 Ke Yosef tɔtɔ, eye mekpɔ ŋudzedze le ale si fofoa da eƒe nuɖusi ɖe Efraim ƒe ta dzi la ŋu o. Ale wòɖe fofoa ƒe nuɖusi ɖa be yeadae ɖe Manase boŋ tɔ dzi.
Bere a Yosef huu sɛ nʼagya de ne nsa nifa ato Efraim apampam no, anyɛ no dɛ. Enti oyii nʼagya nsa nifa no fii Efraim apampam, kɔtoo Manase apampam.
18 Egblɔ be, “Ao, fofonye, ètsɔ wò nuɖusi da ɖe ame si ƒe ta dzi mele be nàdae ɖo o la! Ame si le afi sia lae nye tsitsitɔ. Da wò nuɖusi ɖe eya boŋ dzi!”
Yosef ka kyerɛɛ nʼagya se, “Dabi, mʼagya, oyi ne mʼabakan, nti fa wo nsa nifa to nʼapampam.”
19 Ke fofoa gbe hegblɔ nɛ be, “Vinye, menya nu si wɔm mele. Manase hã azu dukɔ gã aɖe, ke nɔvia suetɔ azu dukɔ gã wu.”
Nanso nʼagya ampene so kae se, “Me ba, minim saa. Ɔno nso bɛyɛ ɔman, na wayɛ ɔkɛse. Nanso ne nua kumaa no bɛyɛ ɔkɛse asen no, na nʼasefo bɛyɛ aman bebree.”
20 Ale Yakob yra ɖeviawo gbe ma gbe ale: “Israelviwo nayra wo nɔewo agblɔ be, ‘Mawu nana nuwo nadze edzi na wò abe Efraim kple Manase ene!’” Ale wòtsɔ Efraim ɖo tsitsi na Manase.
Enti da no, Yakob hyiraa mmarimaa no se, “Israelfo nyinaa nam mo din so behyirahyira wɔn ho wɔn ho. Wɔbɛka se, ‘Onyankopɔn behyirahyira mo, ama moakɔ so frɔmfrɔm te sɛ Efraim ne Manase.’” Saa ɔkwan yi so na Yakob fa maa Efraim bedii Manase anim.
21 Israel gblɔ na Yosef be, “Mele kuku ge kpuie, ke Mawu anɔ kpli wò, eye wòagakplɔ wò ayi Kanaan, fofowòwo ƒe anyigba dzi.
Na Israel ka kyerɛɛ Yosef se, “Merebewu, nanso Onyankopɔn bɛhwɛ mo so, na wasan de mo akɔ Kanaan, mo agyanom asase so bio.
22 Metsɔ Sekemnyigba si metsɔ nye yi kple dati xɔ le Amoritɔwo si la na wò ɖe nɔviwòwo teƒe be wòanye wò gome.”
Wo a mprempren woabɛyɛ wo nuanom nyinaa so panyin no, mede asase a menam me afoa ne mʼagyan so gye fii Amorifo nkyɛn no rema wo.”
