Jenèz 42
1 Alò, Jacob te wè ke te gen sereyal an Égypte, e Jacob te di fis li yo: “Poukisa nou ap gade youn sou lòt konsa?”
And he saw Jacob that there [was] grain in Egypt and he said Jacob to sons his why? are you looking at one another.
2 Li te di: “Mwen tande gen sereyal an Égypte. Desann la pou achte kèk pou nou nan kote sa, pou nou kapab viv, e pa mouri.”
And he said here! I have heard that there [is] grain in Egypt go down there towards and buy grain for us from there so we may live and not we will die.
3 Alò, dis frè Joseph yo te desann pou achte sereyal an Égypte.
And they went down [the] brothers of Joseph ten to buy grain grain from Egypt.
4 Men Jacob pa t voye frè Joseph la, Benjamin avèk lòt frè li yo, paske li te di: “Mwen pè pou yon mal ta kab rive li.”
And Benjamin [the] brother of Joseph not he sent Jacob with brothers his for he said lest it should happen to him harm.
5 Alò, fis Israël yo te vini pou achte sereyal pami sila ki t ap vini yo, paske gwo grangou a te nan peyi Canaan an tou.
And they came [the] sons of Israel to buy grain in among those coming for it was the famine in [the] land of Canaan.
6 Alò, Joseph te an pouvwa nan peyi a. Se te li menm ki te vann a tout pèp nan peyi a. Epi frè a Joseph yo te vin bese ba devan li avèk figi yo atè.
And Joseph he [was] the ruler over the land he [was] the [one who] sold grain to all [the] people of the land and they came [the] brothers of Joseph and they bowed down to him face [the] ground towards.
7 Lè Joseph te wè frè li yo, li te rekonèt yo, men li te kache idantite li devan yo, e li te pale rèd avèk yo. Li te di yo: “Kote nou sòti?” Epi yo te di: “Nan peyi Canaan, pou achte manje.”
And he saw Joseph brothers his and he recognized them and he acted as a stranger to them and he spoke with them harsh and he said to them from where? have you come and they said from [the] land of Canaan to buy food.
8 Men Joseph te rekonèt frè l yo, malgre yo pa t rekonèt li.
And he recognized Joseph brothers his and they not they recognized him.
9 Joseph te sonje rèv ke li te gen sou yo a, e li te di yo: “Se espyon nou ye! Nou te vin chache konnen pwen fèb nan defans peyi nou an.”
And he remembered Joseph the dreams which he had dreamed of them and he said to them [are] spies you to see [the] nakedness of the land you have come.
10 Alò, yo te di li: “Non, mèt mwen, men sèvitè ou yo te vin achte manje.”
And they said to him no O lord my and servants your they have come to buy food.
11 “Nou tout se fis a yon sèl mesye. Nou se moun onèt, sèvitè ou, e nou pa espyon.”
All of us [are] sons of a man one we [are] honest we not they are servants your spies.
12 Malgre sa li te di yo: “Non, men nou te vin gade pwen fèb nan defans peyi nou an.”
And he said to them In-deed [the] nakedness of the land you have come to see.
13 Men yo te reponn li: “Sèvitè ou yo se douz frè antou, fis a yon sèl mesye nan peyi Canaan; e gade byen, pi jenn nan avèk papa nou jodi a, e youn pa la ankò.”
And they said [are] two [plus] ten servants your brothers - we sons of a man one in [the] land of Canaan and there! the young [brother] [is] with father our this day and the one not [is] he.
14 Joseph te di yo: “Se tankou mwen te di nou, se espyon nou ye.
And he said to them Joseph it [is that] which I said to you saying [are] spies you.
15 Men se konsa nou va pase a leprèv. Pa lavi Farawon, nou p ap sòti nan plas sa a amwenske pi jenn nan vin parèt isit la!
By this you will be tested [by] [the] life of Pharaoh if you will go out from here that except when comes brother your young here.
16 Voye youn nan nou ale pou li kapab chache frè nou an, pandan n ap rete anprizone, pou pawòl nou yo kapab pase a leprèv, si gen verite nan nou. Men si non, pa lavi Farawon, vrèman nou se espyon.”
Send of yourselves one so he may fetch brother your and you be imprisoned so they may be tested words your ¿ [is] truth with you and if not [by] [the] life of Pharaoh for [are] spies you.
17 Konsa, li te mete yo nan prizon pou twa jou.
And he removed them to custody three days.
18 Alò, Joseph te di yo nan twazyèm jou a: “Fè sa pou viv, paske mwen krent Bondye:
And he said to them Joseph on the day third this do and live God I [am] fearing.
19 Si nou se moun onèt, kite youn nan frè nou yo rete anprizone nan prizon nou an; men pou nou lòt yo, ale pote sereyal pou grangou ki lakay nou yo.
If [are] honest you brother your one let him be imprisoned in [the] house of custody your and you go take [the] grain of [the] hunger of households your.
20 Men mennen pi jenn frè nou an bò kote m, pou pawòl nou yo kapab verifye, e pou nou pa mouri.” Epi konsa, yo te fè.
And brother your young you will bring to me so they may be verified words your and not you will die and they did so.
21 Yo te di youn a lòt: “Vrèman, nou koupab nan zafè frè nou an, akoz nou te wè jan nanm li te twouble lè li te plede avèk nou, men nou te refize tande. Pou sa, kriz sila a vin rive sou nou.”
And they said each to brother his indeed [are] guilty - we on brother our who we saw [the] distress of self his when sought favor he to us and not we listened there-fore it has come to us the distress this.
22 Reuben te reponn yo, e te di: “Èske mwen pa t di nou: ‘Pa peche kont tigason an;’ men nou te refize tande? Konsa, fwi san li an vin parèt.”
And he answered Reuben them saying ¿ not did I say to you - saying may not you sin against the boy and not you listened and also blood his here! [is] being required.
23 Men yo pa t konnen ke Joseph te konprann, paske te gen yon entèprèt antre yo.
And they not they knew that [was] hearing Joseph for the interpreter [was] between them.
24 Konsa, li te vire lwen yo e li te kriye. Men lè li te retounen vè yo, li te pale avèk yo. Li te pran Siméon nan mitan yo, e li te mare li devan zye yo.
And he turned away from with them and he wept and he returned to them and he spoke to them and he took from with them Simeon and he bound him to eyes their.
25 Konsa, Joseph te bay lòd pou plen sak yo avèk sereyal, remèt lajan a chak moun nan sak li, e bay yo pwovizyon pou vwayaj la. Epi se konsa sa te fèt pou yo.
And he commanded Joseph and people filled vessels their grain and to return silver their each to sack his and to give to them provision[s] for the journey and someone did for them thus.
26 Alò, yo te chaje bourik pa yo avèk sereyal yo, e yo te soti la.
And they lifted grain their on donkeys their and they went from there.
27 Pandan youn nan yo t ap ouvri sak li pou bay bèt la manje, li te wè lajan pa li a. Gade byen, se la li te ye, nan bouch sak la.
And he opened the one sack his to give fodder to donkey his at the lodging place and he saw silver his and there! it [was] in [the] mouth of sack his.
28 Epi li te di a frè l yo: “Lajan mwen an remèt wi! E gade byen, li la menm nan sak mwen an!” Konsa kè yo plonje desann. Yo te vire, tou ap tranble, youn ak lòt, e te di: “Kisa Bondye gen tan fè nou la a?”
And he said to brothers his it has been returned silver my and also here! in sack my and it went out heart their and they trembled each to brother his saying what? this has he done God to us.
29 Lè yo te rive kote papa yo Jacob, nan peyi Canaan an, yo te di li tout sa ki te rive yo. Konsa yo te di:
And they came to Jacob father their [the] land of towards Canaan and they told to him all the [things which] had happened to them saying.
30 “Mesye a, mèt peyi a, te pale byen di avèk nou. Li te panse nou te espyon nan peyi a.
He spoke the man [the] lord of the land with us harsh and he made us like [those who] spy out the land.
31 Men nou te di li: ‘Nou se moun onèt. Se pa espyon nou ye.
And we said to him [are] honest we not we are spies.
32 Nou se douz frè, fis a papa nou. Youn nan nou pa viv ankò, e pi jenn nan avèk papa nou jodi a nan peyi Canaan.’
[are] two [plus] Ten we brothers sons of father our the one not [is] he and the young [brother] this day [is] with father our in [the] land of Canaan.
33 “Epi nonm nan, mèt peyi a, te di nou: ‘Pa sa mwen va konnen ke nou se moun onèt: kite youn nan frè nou yo avè m, pran sereyal la pou pwoblèm grangou lakay nou yo, e ale.
And he said to us the man [the] lord of the land by this I will know that [are] honest you brother your one leave with me and [the] hunger of households your take and go.
34 Men mennen pi jenn frè ou a kote mwen pou m ka konnen ke nou pa espyon, men ke nou se moun onèt. Mwen va bay ou frè ou a, e w ap kapab fè komès nan peyi a.’”
And bring brother your young to me so let me know that not [are] spies you that [are] honest you brother your I will give to you and the land you will go about in.
35 Alò, li te rive ke lè yo t ap vide sak yo, ke gade byen, bous lajan chak moun te nan sak li. Lè yo menm avèk papa yo te wè lajan an, yo te sezi.
And it was they [were] emptying sacks their and there! each man [the] bag of silver his [was] in sack his and they saw [the] bags of silver their they and father their and they were afraid.
36 Papa yo, Jacob te di yo: “Nou fin fè m pèdi pitit mwen yo! Joseph pa la ankò, Siméon pa la ankò, e nou ta vle pran Benjamin. Tout bagay sa yo kont mwen.”
And he said to them Jacob father their me you are making childless Joseph not [is] he and Simeon not [is] he and Benjamin you will take on me they are all of them.
37 Alò, Reuben te pale avèk papa l. Li te di: “Ou kapab mete de gason mwen yo a lanmò si mwen pa mennen li retounen kote ou. Mete li sou kont mwen, e mwen va fè l retounen kote ou.”
And he said Reuben to father his saying two of sons my you will kill if not I will bring him to you put! him on hand my and I I will bring back him to you.
38 Men Jacob te di: “Fis mwen an p ap desann avèk nou. Paske frè li a mouri, e se li sèl ki rete. Si malè ta rive li nan vwayaj ke nou ap fè a, alò, nou va mennen tèt cheve blanch sa a vè sejou mò yo avèk tristès.” (Sheol h7585)
And he said not he will go down son my with you for brother his he has died and he to only him [is] remaining and it will happen to him harm on the journey which you will go on it and you will cause to go down gray hair my in sorrow Sheol towards. (Sheol h7585)
