Kĩambĩrĩria 39
1 Na rĩrĩ, Jusufu nĩaikũrũkirio o nginya bũrũri wa Misiri. Nake Potifaru, Mũmisiri ũmwe wa anene a Firaũni, na mũrũgamĩrĩri wa arangĩri a Firaũni, akĩmũgũra kuuma kũrĩ Aishumaeli arĩa maamũtwarĩte kũu.
Now Ioseph was brought downe into Egypt: and Potiphar an Eunuche of Pharaohs (and his chiefe stewarde an Egyptian) bought him at the hande of the Ishmeelites, which had brought him thither.
2 Nake Jehova aarĩ hamwe na Jusufu, nake akĩgaacĩra, na agĩtũũra nyũmba-inĩ ya Mũmisiri ũcio mwathi wake.
And the Lord was with Ioseph, and he was a man that prospered and was in the house of his master the Egyptian.
3 Na rĩrĩa mwathi wake onire atĩ Jehova aarĩ hamwe nake, na atĩ Jehova nĩatũmĩte Jusufu agaacĩre maũndũ-inĩ mothe marĩa ekaga-rĩ,
And his master sawe that the Lord was with him, and that the Lord made all that hee did to prosper in his hande.
4 Jusufu agĩĩtĩkĩrĩka maitho-inĩ make na agĩtuĩka wa kũmũtungatĩra. Potifaru akĩmũtua mũrori wa nyũmba yake na akĩmwĩhokera ũmenyereri wa kĩrĩa gĩothe aarĩ nakĩo.
So Ioseph founde fauour in his sight, and serued him: and he made him ruler of his house, and put all that he had in his hand.
5 Kuuma hĩndĩ ĩrĩa aamũtuire mũrori wa nyũmba yake na kĩrĩa gĩothe aarĩ nakĩo, Jehova akĩrathima nyũmba ya Mũmisiri ũcio nĩ ũndũ wa Jusufu. Kĩrathimo kĩa Jehova kĩarĩ igũrũ wa indo ciothe cia Potifaru, iria ciarĩ nyũmba o na iria ciarĩ mũgũnda.
And from that time that he had made him ruler ouer his house and ouer all that he had, the Lord blessed the Egyptians house for Iosephs sake: and the blessing of the Lord was vpon all that he had in the house, and in the fielde.
6 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio agĩtigĩra Jusufu indo ciothe iria aarĩ nacio acimenyagĩrĩre; rĩrĩa rĩothe Jusufu aarĩ mũrũgamĩrĩri-rĩ, Potifaru ndarũmbũyanagia na kĩndũ o nakĩ tiga o irio iria aarĩĩaga. Na rĩrĩ, Jusufu aarĩ mũthaka na wa mwĩrĩ mwega,
Therefore he left all that he had in Iosephs hand, and tooke accompt of nothing, that was with him, saue onely of the bread, which he did eate. And Ioseph was a faire person, and well fauoured.
7 na thuutha wa ihinda, mũtumia wa mwathi wake akĩmwĩrirĩria, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ũka ũkome na niĩ!”
Nowe therefore after these thinges, his masters wife cast her eyes vpon Ioseph, and saide, Lye with me.
8 No Jusufu akĩrega. Akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Niĩ ndĩ mũrori-rĩ, mwathi wakwa ndarũmbũyanagia na kĩndũ o nakĩ kĩa nyũmba, indo iria ciothe arĩ nacio nĩanjĩĩhokeire ndĩcimenyagĩrĩre.
But he refused and said to his masters wife, Beholde, my master knoweth not what he hath in the house with me, but hath committed all that he hath to mine hande.
9 Gũtirĩ mũndũ ũngĩ mũnene nyũmba ĩno ũngĩrĩte. Mwathi wakwa ndangirĩrĩirie kĩndũ o nakĩ, tiga wee wiki, tondũ ũrĩ mũtumia wake. Ndaakĩhota atĩa gwĩka ũndũ ta ũyũ wa waganu njĩhĩrie Ngai?”
There is no man greater in this house then I: neither hath he kept any thing from me, but only thee, because thou art his wife: how then can I do this great wickednes and so sinne against God?
10 Na o na gũtuĩka nĩaringagĩrĩria Jusufu mũthenya o mũthenya akome nake-rĩ, Jusufu nĩaregire gũkoma nake o na kana gũkorwo hamwe nake.
And albeit she spake to Ioseph day by day, yet he hearkened not vnto her, to lye with her, or to be in her company.
11 No mũthenya ũmwe Jusufu nĩaingĩrire nyũmba kũruta wĩra wake, na gũtiarĩ ndungata o na ĩmwe ya nyũmba yarĩ kũu thĩinĩ.
Then on a certaine day Ioseph entred into the house, to doe his businesse: and there was no man of the houshold in the house:
12 Mũtumia ũcio akĩnyiita nguo ya Jusufu, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ũka ũkome na niĩ!” No Jusufu agĩtiga nguo yake guoko-inĩ kwa mũtumia ũcio, akiuma nyũmba akĩũra.
Therefore she caught him by his garmet, saying, Sleepe with me: but he left his garment in her hand and fled, and got him out.
13 Na rĩrĩa mũtumia ũcio onire atĩ Jusufu nĩatiga nguo yake guoko-inĩ gwake na oora-rĩ,
Nowe when she sawe that he had left his garment in her hand, and was fled out,
14 agĩĩta ndungata cia nyũmba yake, agĩciĩra atĩrĩ, “Ta kĩonei Mũhibirania ũyũ aarehirwo kũrĩ ithuĩ nĩgeetha atũnyarare! Egũũkĩte haha nĩguo akome na niĩ, na niĩ ndakaya.
She called vnto the men of her house, and tolde them, saying, Beholde, he hath brought in an Ebrewe vnto vs to mocke vs: who came in to me for to haue slept with me: but I cryed with a loude voyce.
15 Na rĩrĩa aigua ngĩkaya ndeithio, aatiga nguo yake haha, oima nyũmba na oora.”
And when he heard that I lift vp my voice and cryed, he left his garment with me, and fled away, and got him out.
16 Nake agĩikara na nguo ĩyo nginya rĩrĩa mwathi wa Jusufu aainũkire.
So she layde vp his garment by her, vntill her lord came home.
17 Nake mũtumia ũcio akĩmũhe rũgano rũu, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ngombo ĩrĩa ya Mũhibirania, ĩrĩa watũreheire ĩgũũkĩte kũrĩ niĩ kũnyarara.
Then she tolde him according to these words, saying, The Ebrew seruat, which thou hast brought vnto vs, came in to me, to mocke me.
18 No rĩrĩa njugire mbu ndeithio, yatiga nguo ĩno harĩ niĩ, yoima nyũmba na yora.”
But assoone as I lift vp my voyce and cried, he left his garment with me, and fled out.
19 Rĩrĩa mwathi wa Jusufu aiguire rũgano rũu aaheirwo nĩ mũtumia wake, rĩrĩa aamwĩrire, “Ũguo nĩguo ngombo yaku ĩnjĩkire,” agĩcinwo nĩ marakara.
Then when his master heard the wordes of his wife, which she tolde him, saying, After this maner did thy seruant to me, his anger was kindled.
20 Nake mwathi wa Jusufu akĩnyiita Jusufu akĩmũikia njeera, kũndũ kũrĩa gwaikagio andũ arĩa oohe a mũthamaki. No hĩndĩ ĩyo Jusufu aarĩ kũu njeera-rĩ,
And Iosephs master tooke him and put him in prison, in the place, where the kings prisoners lay bounde: and there he was in prison.
21 Jehova aarĩ hamwe nake; akĩmũtuga na agĩtũma etĩkĩrĩke maitho-inĩ ma mũnene wa njeera.
But the Lord was with Ioseph, and shewed him mercie, and got him fauour in the sight of the master of the prison.
22 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio mũnene wa njeera agĩtua Jusufu mũrori wa arĩa othe moohetwo njeera, na agĩtuuo mũmenyereri wa maũndũ mothe marĩa meekagwo kũu.
And the keeper of the prison committed to Iosephs hande all the prisoners that were in the prison, and whatsoeuer they did there, that did he.
23 Mũnene ũcio wa njeera ndaarũmbũyagia ũndũ o na ũmwe wa marĩa maamenyagĩrĩrwo nĩ Jusufu, tondũ Jehova aarĩ hamwe na Jusufu na akĩmũhe ũgaacĩru maũndũ-inĩ mothe marĩa ekaga.
And the keeper of the prison looked vnto nothing that was vnder his hande, seeing that the Lord was with him: for whatsoeuer he did, the Lord made it to prosper.
