Farawa 41
1 Bayan shekaru biyu cif, Fir’auna ya yi mafarki. A mafarkin, ya ga yana tsaye kusa da Nilu,
Now after two years had gone by, Pharaoh had a dream; and in his dream he was by the side of the Nile;
2 sai ga shanu bakwai masu ƙiba mulmul, suka fito daga kogin, suna kiwo a cikin kyauro.
And out of the Nile came seven cows, good-looking and fat, and their food was the river-grass.
3 Bayansu, sai ga waɗansu shanu bakwai, munana, ramammu, suka fito daga Nilu, suka tsaya kusa da waɗancan masu ƙiban, a bakin kogin.
And after them seven other cows came out of the Nile, poor-looking and thin; and they were by the side of the other cows.
4 Shanun nan da suke munana ramammu, suka cinye shanu bakwai nan masu ƙiba mulmul. Sai Fir’auna ya farka.
And the seven thin cows made a meal of the seven fat cows. Then Pharaoh came out of his sleep.
5 Ya sāke yin barci, sai ya yi mafarki na biyu; ya ga kawuna bakwai na dawa, ƙosassu masu kyau, suka yi girma a kara guda.
But he went to sleep again and had a second dream, in which he saw seven heads of grain, full and good, all on one stem.
6 Bayansu, sai ga waɗansu kawuna bakwai na dawa, suka fito sirara waɗanda iskar gabas ta sa suka yanƙwane.
And after them came up seven other heads, thin and wasted by the east wind.
7 Siraran dawan suka haɗiye kawuna bakwai nan ƙosassu masu kyau. Sai Fir’auna ya farka, ashe, mafarki ne.
And the seven thin heads made a meal of the good heads. And when Pharaoh was awake he saw it was a dream.
8 Da safe sai hankalinsa ya tashi, saboda haka sai ya aika a kawo dukan masu duba da masu hikima na Masar. Fir’auna ya faɗa musu mafarkansa, amma babu wanda ya iya ba shi fassararsu.
And in the morning his spirit was troubled; and he sent for all the wise men of Egypt and all the holy men, and put his dream before them, but no one was able to give him the sense of it.
9 Sai shugaban masu shayarwa ya ce wa Fir’auna, “Yau an tuna mini da kāsawata.
Then the chief wine-servant said to Pharaoh, The memory of my sin comes back to me now;
10 Sai ya ci gaba ya ce, Fir’auna ya taɓa husata da bayinsa, ya kuma jefa ni da shugaban masu tuya a cikin kurkuku a gidan shugaban masu tsaro.
Pharaoh had been angry with his servants, and had put me in prison in the house of the captain of the army, together with the chief bread-maker;
11 Kowannenmu ya yi mafarki a wani dare, kowane mafarki kuma ya kasance da ma’anarsa.
And we had a dream on the same night, the two of us, and the dreams had a special sense.
12 To, wani saurayi, mutumin Ibraniyawa ya kasance a can tare da mu, bawan shugaban masu tsaro. Sai muka faɗa masa mafarkanmu, ya kuwa fassara mana su, yana ba wa kowane mutum fassarar mafarkinsa.
And there was with us a young Hebrew, the captain's servant, and when we put our dreams before him, he gave us the sense of them.
13 Abubuwan kuwa suka kasance daidai yadda ya fassara su gare mu; aka mai da ni a matsayina, ɗaya mutumin kuwa aka rataye shi.”
And it came about as he said: I was put back in my place, and the bread-maker was put to death by hanging.
14 Sai Fir’auna ya aika a kawo Yusuf, aka kuwa kawo shi da sauri daga kurkuku. Sa’ad da ya yi aski, ya kuma canja tufafinsa, sai ya zo gaban Fir’auna.
Then Pharaoh sent for Joseph, and they took him quickly out of prison; and when his hair had been cut and his dress changed, he came before Pharaoh.
15 Fir’auna ya ce wa Yusuf, “Na yi mafarki, kuma babu wanda ya iya fassara shi. Amma na ji an ce sa’ad da ka ji mafarki, kana iya fassara shi.”
And Pharaoh said to Joseph, I have had a dream, and no one is able to give me the sense of it; now it has come to my ears that you are able to give the sense of a dream when it is put before you.
16 Yusuf ya amsa wa Fir’auna ya ce, “Ba ni ne da iyawar ba, Allah zai iya ba wa Fir’auna amsar da yake nema.”
Then Joseph said, Without God there will be no answer of peace for Pharaoh.
17 Sa’an nan Fir’auna ya ce wa Yusuf, “A cikin mafarkina, na ga ina tsaye a bakin Nilu,
Then Pharaoh said, In my dream I was by the side of the Nile:
18 sai ga shanu bakwai masu ƙiba mulmul, suka fito daga kogin, suna kiwo a cikin kyauro.
And out of the Nile came seven cows, fat and good-looking, and their food was the river-grass;
19 Bayansu kuma, sai ga waɗansu shanu bakwai suka fito ƙanjamammu, munana, ramammu. Ban taɓa ganin irin munanan shanu haka a cikin dukan ƙasar Masar ba.
Then after them came seven other cows, very thin and poor-looking, worse than any I ever saw in the land of Egypt;
20 Ramammun shanun nan munana, suka cinye shanun nan bakwai masu ƙiba da suka fito da fari.
And the thin cows made a meal of the seven fat cows who came up first;
21 Amma ko bayan da suka cinye su, babu wanda zai iya faɗa cewa sun yi haka; suna nan dai munana kamar yadda suke a dā. Sai na farka.
And even with the fat cows inside them they seemed as bad as before. And so I came out of my sleep.
22 “Har yanzu kuma, a cikin mafarkina na ga kawuna bakwai na dawa ƙosassu masu kyau, suna girma a kara guda.
And again in a dream I saw seven heads of grain, full and good, coming up on one stem:
23 Bayansu, sai ga waɗansu kawuna bakwai suka fito, yanƙwananne sirara waɗanda iskar gabas ta yanƙwane.
And then I saw seven other heads, dry, thin, and wasted by the east wind, coming up after them:
24 Siraran kawunan dawan nan suka haɗiye kawuna bakwai nan masu kyau. Na faɗa wannan wa masu duba, amma ba wanda ya iya fassara mini shi.”
And the seven thin heads made a meal of the seven good heads; and I put this dream before the wise men, but not one of them was able to give me the sense of it.
25 Sai Yusuf ya ce wa Fir’auna, “Mafarkan Fir’auna, ɗaya ne. Allah ya bayyana wa Fir’auna abin da yake shirin yi.
Then Joseph said, These two dreams have the same sense: God has made clear to Pharaoh what he is about to do.
26 Shanu masu kyau nan, shekaru bakwai ne, kawunan dawa bakwai ƙosassun nan kuwa shekaru bakwai ne; mafarkan iri ɗaya ne.
The seven fat cows are seven years, and the seven good heads of grain are seven years: the two have the same sense.
27 Shanun nan ramammu, munana, da suka zo daga baya, shekaru bakwai ne, haka ma kawuna dawan nan shanyayyu da iskar gabas ta yanƙwane. Shekaru ne bakwai na yunwa.
The seven thin and poor-looking cows who came up after them are seven years; and the seven heads of grain, dry and wasted by the east wind, are seven years when there will be no food.
28 “Haka yake kamar yadda na faɗa wa Fir’auna cewa Allah ya nuna wa Fir’auna abin da yake shirin yi.
As I said to Pharaoh before, God has made clear to him what he is about to do.
29 Shekaru bakwai na yalwar abinci suna zuwa a dukan ƙasar Masar,
Seven years are coming in which there will be great wealth of grain in Egypt;
30 amma shekaru bakwai na yunwa za su biyo bayansu. Tsananin yunwar za tă sa a manta da dukan isashen abincin da aka samu a ƙasar Masar, yunwa kuwa za tă rufe dukan ƙasar.
And after that will come seven years when there will not be enough food; and the memory of the good years will go from men's minds; and the land will be made waste by the bad years;
31 Ba za a tuna da isashen abincin da aka samu a ƙasar ba, domin yunwar da za tă biyo baya za tă zama da tsanani ƙwarai.
And men will have no memory of the good time because of the need which will come after, for it will be very bitter.
32 Dalilin da aka ba wa Fir’auna mafarkan nan kashi biyu kuwa shi ne cewa Allah ya riga ya ƙaddara al’amarin. Allah zai aikata shi, ba da daɗewa ba.
And this dream came to Pharaoh twice, because this thing is certain, and God will quickly make it come about.
33 “Yanzu fa, bari Fir’auna yă nemi mutum mai basira da kuma hikima, yă sa shi yă shugabanci ƙasar Masar.
And now let Pharaoh make search for a man of wisdom and good sense, and put him in authority over the land of Egypt.
34 Bari Fir’auna yă naɗa komishinoni a kan ƙasar don su karɓi kashi ɗaya bisa biyar na girbin Masar a lokacin shekaru bakwai na yalwar abinci.
Let Pharaoh do this, and let him put overseers over the land of Egypt to put in store a fifth part of the produce of the land in the good years.
35 Ya kamata su tara dukan abincin waɗannan shekaru masu kyau da suke zuwa, su yi ajiyar hatsin a ƙarƙashin ikon Fir’auna, don a ajiye a birane don abinci.
And let them get together all the food in those good years and make a store of grain under Pharaoh's control for the use of the towns, and let them keep it.
36 Ya kamata a adana abincin nan don ƙasar, kāriya shekaru bakwai na yunwa, domin a yi amfani da shi a lokacin shekarun yunwan da za su zo wa Masar, saboda kada ƙasar ta lalace da yunwa.”
And let that food be kept in store for the land till the seven bad years which are to come in Egypt; so that the land may not come to destruction through need of food.
37 Shirin ya yi wa Fir’auna da kuma dukan hafsoshinsa kyau.
And this seemed good to Pharaoh and to all his servants.
38 Saboda haka Fir’auna ya tambaye su, “Za mu iya samun wani kamar wannan mutum, wannan wanda Ruhun Allah yake cikinsa?”
Then Pharaoh said to his servants, Where may we get such a man as this, a man in whom is the spirit of God?
39 Sai Fir’auna ya ce wa Yusuf, “Da yake Allah ya ba ka sanin dukan waɗannan, babu wani mai basira da kuma hikima kamar ka.
And Pharaoh said to Joseph, Seeing that God has made all this clear to you, there is no other man of such wisdom and good sense as you:
40 Za ka shugabanci fadata, kuma dukan mutanena za su zama a ƙarƙashinka. Da sarauta kaɗai zan fi ka girma.”
You, then, are to be over my house, and all my people will be ruled by your word: only as king will I be greater than you.
41 Saboda haka Fir’auna ya ce wa Yusuf, “Ga shi na sa ka zama shugaban dukan ƙasar Masar.”
And Pharaoh said to Joseph, See, I have put you over all the land of Egypt.
42 Sa’an nan Fir’auna ya zare zoben sarauta daga yatsarsa, ya sa shi a yatsan Yusuf. Ya sanya masa rigar lallausan lilin, ya kuma sa masa sarƙar zinariya a wuyansa.
Then Pharaoh took off his ring from his hand and put it on Joseph's hand, and he had him clothed with the best linen, and put a chain of gold round his neck;
43 Ya sa shi ya hau keken yaƙi a matsayi mai binsa na biyu, mutane kuwa suka yi shela a gabansa suna cewa, “A ba da hanya!” Ta haka ya sa shi shugaba a kan dukan ƙasar Masar.
And he made him take his seat in the second of his carriages; and they went before him crying, Make way! So he made him ruler over all the land of Egypt.
44 Sa’an nan Fir’auna ya ce wa Yusuf, “Ni ne Fir’auna, amma in ba tare da umarninka ba, ba wanda zai ɗaga hannu ko ƙafa a cikin dukan Masar.”
Then Pharaoh said to Joseph, I am Pharaoh; and without your order no man may do anything in all the land of Egypt.
45 Fir’auna ya ba wa Yusuf suna Zafenat-Faneya, ya kuma ba shi Asenat’yar Fotifera firist na On, ta zama matarsa. Yusuf kuwa ya zaga dukan ƙasar Masar.
And Pharaoh gave Joseph the name of Zaphnath-paaneah; and he gave him Asenath, the daughter of Poti-phera, the priest of On, to be his wife. So Joseph went through all the land of Egypt.
46 Yusuf yana zuwa shekara talatin sa’ad da ya shiga hidimar Fir’auna sarkin Masar. Yusuf kuwa ya fita daga gaban Fir’auna, ya zaga ko’ina a Masar.
Now Joseph was thirty years old when he came before Pharaoh, king of Egypt. And Joseph went out from before the face of Pharaoh and went through all the land of Egypt.
47 A shekaru bakwai na yalwa, ƙasar ta ba da amfani mai yawa.
Now in the seven good years the earth gave fruit in masses.
48 Yusuf ya tattara dukan abincin da aka samu a waɗannan shekaru bakwai na yalwa a Masar, ya kuma yi ajiyarsu a cikin birane. A kowane birni, ya sa abincin da aka nome a kewayensa.
And Joseph got together all the food of those seven years, and made a store of food in the towns: the produce of the fields round every town was stored up in the town.
49 Sai Yusuf ya tara hatsi da yawan gaske, kamar yashi a bakin teku, har sai da ya kāsa iya auna shi, gama ba a iya aunawa.
So he got together a store of grain like the sand of the sea; so great a store that after a time he gave up measuring it, for it might not be measured.
50 Kafin shekarun yunwa su zo, Asenat’yar Fotifera, firist na On, ta haifa wa Yusuf’ya’ya maza biyu.
And before the time of need, Joseph had two sons, to whom Asenath, the daughter of Poti-phera, priest of On, gave birth.
51 Yusuf ya ba wa ɗansa na fari suna Manasse ya ce, “Gama Allah ya sa na mance dukan wahalata da dukan gidan mahaifina.”
And to the first he gave the name Manasseh, for he said, God has taken away from me all memory of my hard life and of my father's house.
52 Ya ba wa ɗansa na biyu suna Efraim ya ce, “Gama Allah ya wadata ni cikin wahalata.”
And to the second he gave the name Ephraim, for he said, God has given me fruit in the land of my sorrow.
53 Shekaru bakwai na yalwa a Masar suka zo ga ƙarshe,
And so the seven good years in Egypt came to an end.
54 sai shekaru bakwai na yunwa suka soma shigowa, kamar yadda Yusuf ya faɗa. Aka yi yunwa ko’ina amma ban da ƙasar Masar. Don akwai abinci.
Then came the first of the seven years of need as Joseph had said: and in every other land they were short of food; but in the land of Egypt there was bread.
55 Sa’ad da dukan Masar ta fara jin yunwa, sai mutane suka yi wa Fir’auna kuka don abinci. Sai Fir’auna ya ce wa dukan Masarawa, “Ku tafi wurin Yusuf, ku kuma yi abin da ya faɗa muku.”
And when all the land of Egypt was in need of food, the people came crying to Pharaoh for bread; and Pharaoh said to the people, Go to Joseph, and whatever he says to you, do it.
56 Sa’ad da yunwa ta bazu a dukan ƙasar, sai Yusuf ya buɗe gidajen ajiya, ya kuma sayar da hatsi ga Masarawa, gama yunwa ta yi tsanani a dukan Masar.
And everywhere on the earth they were short of food; then Joseph, opening all his store-houses, gave the people of Egypt grain for money; so great was the need of food in the land of Egypt.
57 Dukan ƙasashe kuwa suka zo Masar don saya hatsi daga Yusuf, gama yunwa ta yi tsanani a dukan duniya.
And all lands sent to Egypt, to Joseph, to get grain, for the need was great over all the earth.
