Farawa 39
1 To, aka kai Yusuf Masar, Fotifar wani mutumin Masar wanda yake ɗaya daga cikin hafsoshin Fir’auna, shugaban masu tsaro, ya saye shi daga mutanen Ishmayel waɗanda suka kai shi can.
And Joseph was brought down to Egypt; and Petephres the eunuch of Pharao, the captain of the guard, an Egyptian, bought him of the hands of the Ismaelites, who brought him down thither.
2 Ubangiji kuwa yana tare da Yusuf, Yusuf kuwa yi nasara, ya zauna a gidan mutumin Masar maigidansa.
And the Lord was with Joseph, and he was a prosperous man; and he was in the house with his lord the Egyptian.
3 Sa’ad da maigidansa ya ga cewa Ubangiji yana tare da Yusuf, kuma cewa Ubangiji ya ba shi nasara a kome da ya yi,
And his master knew that the Lord was with him, and the Lord prospers in his hands whatsoever he happens to do.
4 sai Yusuf ya sami tagomashi a idanunsa, ya kuma zama mai hidimarsa. Fotifar ya sa shi yă zama shugaba a gidansa, ya kuma danƙa masa kome da yake da shi.
And Joseph found grace in the presence of his lord, and was well-pleasing to him; and he set him over his house, and all that he had he gave into the hand of Joseph.
5 Daga lokacin da ya sa shi shugaban gidansa da kuma a kan dukan abin da yake da shi, sai Ubangiji ya albarkaci gidan mutumin Masar saboda Yusuf. Albarkar Ubangiji tana a kan kome da Fotifar yake da shi a gida da kuma a jeji.
And it came to pass after that he was set over his house, and over all that he had, that the Lord blessed the house of the Egyptian for Joseph's sake; and the blessing of the Lord was on all his possessions in the house, and in his field.
6 Saboda haka sai ya bar kome a ƙarƙashin kulawar Yusuf, bai dame kansa a wani abu ba sai dai abincin da yake ci. To, fa, Yusuf ƙaƙƙarfa ne, kyakkyawa kuma,
And he committed all that he had into the hands of Joseph; and he knew not of anything that belonged to him, save the bread which he himself ate. And Joseph was handsome in form, and exceedingly beautiful in countenance.
7 bayan an ɗan jima sai matar maigidansa ta fara sha’awar Yusuf, sai ta ce, “Zo ka kwana da ni!”
And it came to pass after these things, that his master's wife cast her eyes upon Joseph, and said, Lie with me.
8 Amma ya ƙi. Ya ce mata, “Ga shi kome yana a ƙarƙashina, don haka ne ma maigidana bai dami kansa da wani abu a cikin gidan nan ba; kome da ya mallaka, ya danƙa ga kulawata.
But he would not; but said to his master's wife, If because of me my master knows nothing in his house, and has given into my hands all things that belong to him:
9 Babu wani da ya fi ni a wannan gida. Maigidana bai hana ni kome ba sai ke, saboda ke matarsa ce. Yaya fa, zan yi irin wannan mugun abu, in yi zunubi wa Allah?”
and in this house there is nothing above me, nor has anything been kept back from me, but thou, because thou art his wife—how then shall I do this wicked thing, and sin against God?
10 Ko da yake ta yi ta yin wa Yusuf maganar kowace rana, amma ya ƙi yă kwana da ita, ko ma yă zauna da ita.
And when she talked with Joseph day by day, and he hearkened not to her to sleep with her, so as to be with her,
11 Wata rana, ya shiga cikin gida don yă yi ayyukansa, ba wani daga cikin bayin gidan da yake ciki.
it came to pass on a certain day, that Joseph went into the house to do his business, and there was no one of the household within.
12 Sai ta cafke shi a riga, ta ce, “Zo ka kwana da ni!” Amma ya bar rigarsa a hannunta, ya gudu ya fita daga gidan.
And she caught hold of him by his clothes, and said, Lie with me; and having left his clothes in her hands, he fled, and went forth.
13 Sa’ad da ta ga ya bar rigarsa a hannunta ya gudu ya fita daga gidan,
And it came to pass, when she saw that he had left his clothes in her hands, and fled, and gone forth,
14 sai ta kira bayin gidan ta ce musu, “Duba, an kawo mana wannan mutumin Ibraniyawa don yă ci mutuncinmu! Ya zo nan don yă kwana da ni, amma na yi ihu.
that she called those that were in the house, and spoke to them, saying, See, he has brought in to us a Hebrew servant to mock us—he came in to me, saying, Lie with me, and I cried with a loud voice.
15 Sa’ad da ya ji na yi ihu neman taimako, sai ya bar rigarsa kusa da ni, ya gudu ya fita daga gida.”
And when he heard that I lifted up my voice and cried, having left his clothes with me, he fled, and went forth out.
16 Ta ajiye rigar kusa da ita sai da maigidansa ya dawo gida.
So she leaves the clothes by her, until the master came to his house.
17 Sa’an nan ta faɗa masa wannan labari, “Mutumin Ibraniyawan, bawan da ka kawo mana, ya zo wurina don yă ci mutuncina.
And she spoke to him according to these words, saying, The Hebrew servant, whom thou broughtest in to us, came in to me to mock me, and said to me, I will lie with thee.
18 Amma da zarar na yi ihu neman taimako, sai ya bar rigarsa kusa da ni, ya gudu ya fita daga gida.”
And when he heard that I lifted up my voice and cried, having left his clothes with me, he fled and departed forth.
19 Sa’ad da maigidansa ya ji labarin da matarsa ta faɗa masa cewa, “Ga yadda bawanka ya yi da ni,” sai ya husata.
And it came to pass, when his master heard all the words of his wife, that she spoke to him, saying, Thus did thy servant to me, that he was very angry.
20 Maigidan Yusuf ya ɗauke shi ya sa a kurkuku, wurin da ake tsare’yan kurkukun sarki. Amma yayinda Yusuf yake can a cikin kurkuku,
And his master took Joseph, and cast him into the prison, into the place where the king's prisoners are kept, there in the prison.
21 Ubangiji ya kasance tare da shi; ya nuna masa alheri, ya kuma sa ya sami tagomashi a idanun mai gadin kurkukun.
And the Lord was with Joseph, and poured down mercy upon him; and he gave him favour in the sight of the chief keeper of the prison.
22 Saboda haka mai gadin ya sa Yusuf ya zama shugaban dukan waɗanda aka tsare a kurkukun, Yusuf ne kuma yake lura da dukan abin da ake yi a can.
And the chief keeper of the prison gave the prison into the hand of Joseph, and all the prisoners as many as were in the prison; and all things whatsoever they do there, he did them.
23 Mai gadin ba ya sa kansa game da kome da yake ƙarƙashin kulawar Yusuf, gama Ubangiji yana tare da Yusuf, ya kuma ba shi nasara a cikin dukan abin da ya yi.
Because of him the chief keeper of the prison knew nothing, for all things were in the hand of Joseph, because the Lord was with him; and whatever things he did, the Lord made them to prosper in his hands.
