< Farawa 41 >
1 Bayan shekaru biyu cif, Fir’auna ya yi mafarki. A mafarkin, ya ga yana tsaye kusa da Nilu,
At the end of two full years, Pharaoh dreamed, and behold, he stood by the river.
2 sai ga shanu bakwai masu ƙiba mulmul, suka fito daga kogin, suna kiwo a cikin kyauro.
Behold, seven cattle came up out of the river. They were sleek and fat, and they fed in the marsh grass.
3 Bayansu, sai ga waɗansu shanu bakwai, munana, ramammu, suka fito daga Nilu, suka tsaya kusa da waɗancan masu ƙiban, a bakin kogin.
Behold, seven other cattle came up after them out of the river, ugly and thin, and stood by the other cattle on the brink of the river.
4 Shanun nan da suke munana ramammu, suka cinye shanu bakwai nan masu ƙiba mulmul. Sai Fir’auna ya farka.
The ugly and thin cattle ate up the seven sleek and fat cattle. So Pharaoh awoke.
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.
He slept and dreamed a second time; and behold, seven heads of grain came up on one stalk, healthy and good.
6 Bayansu, sai ga waɗansu kawuna bakwai na dawa, suka fito sirara waɗanda iskar gabas ta sa suka yanƙwane.
Behold, seven heads of grain, thin and blasted with the east wind, sprung up after them.
7 Siraran dawan suka haɗiye kawuna bakwai nan ƙosassu masu kyau. Sai Fir’auna ya farka, ashe, mafarki ne.
The thin heads of grain swallowed up the seven healthy and full ears. Pharaoh awoke, and behold, 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.
In the morning, his spirit was troubled, and he sent and called for all of Egypt’s magicians and wise men. Pharaoh told them his dreams, but there was no one who could interpret them to Pharaoh.
9 Sai shugaban masu shayarwa ya ce wa Fir’auna, “Yau an tuna mini da kāsawata.
Then the chief cup bearer spoke to Pharaoh, saying, “I remember my faults today.
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 was angry with his servants, and put me in custody in the house of the captain of the guard, with the chief baker.
11 Kowannenmu ya yi mafarki a wani dare, kowane mafarki kuma ya kasance da ma’anarsa.
We dreamed a dream in one night, he and I. Each man dreamed according to the interpretation of his dream.
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.
There was with us there a young man, a Hebrew, servant to the captain of the guard, and we told him, and he interpreted to us our dreams. He interpreted to each man according to his dream.
13 Abubuwan kuwa suka kasance daidai yadda ya fassara su gare mu; aka mai da ni a matsayina, ɗaya mutumin kuwa aka rataye shi.”
As he interpreted to us, so it was. He restored me to my office, and he hanged him.”
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 and called Joseph, and they brought him hastily out of the dungeon. He shaved himself, changed his clothing, and came in to 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.”
Pharaoh said to Joseph, “I have dreamed a dream, and there is no one who can interpret it. I have heard it said of you, that when you hear a dream you can interpret it.”
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.”
Joseph answered Pharaoh, saying, “It isn’t in me. God will give Pharaoh an answer of peace.”
17 Sa’an nan Fir’auna ya ce wa Yusuf, “A cikin mafarkina, na ga ina tsaye a bakin Nilu,
Pharaoh spoke to Joseph, “In my dream, behold, I stood on the brink of the river;
18 sai ga shanu bakwai masu ƙiba mulmul, suka fito daga kogin, suna kiwo a cikin kyauro.
and behold, seven fat and sleek cattle came up out of the river. They fed in the marsh 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.
and behold, seven other cattle came up after them, poor and very ugly and thin, such as I never saw in all the land of Egypt for ugliness.
20 Ramammun shanun nan munana, suka cinye shanun nan bakwai masu ƙiba da suka fito da fari.
The thin and ugly cattle ate up the first seven fat cattle;
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 when they had eaten them up, it couldn’t be known that they had eaten them, but they were still ugly, as at the beginning. So I awoke.
22 “Har yanzu kuma, a cikin mafarkina na ga kawuna bakwai na dawa ƙosassu masu kyau, suna girma a kara guda.
I saw in my dream, and behold, seven heads of grain came up on one stalk, full and good;
23 Bayansu, sai ga waɗansu kawuna bakwai suka fito, yanƙwananne sirara waɗanda iskar gabas ta yanƙwane.
and behold, seven heads of grain, withered, thin, and blasted with the east wind, sprung 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.”
The thin heads of grain swallowed up the seven good heads of grain. I told it to the magicians, but there was no one who could explain it to me.”
25 Sai Yusuf ya ce wa Fir’auna, “Mafarkan Fir’auna, ɗaya ne. Allah ya bayyana wa Fir’auna abin da yake shirin yi.
Joseph said to Pharaoh, “The dream of Pharaoh is one. What God is about to do he has declared to Pharaoh.
26 Shanu masu kyau nan, shekaru bakwai ne, kawunan dawa bakwai ƙosassun nan kuwa shekaru bakwai ne; mafarkan iri ɗaya ne.
The seven good cattle are seven years; and the seven good heads of grain are seven years. The dream is one.
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 ugly cattle that came up after them are seven years, and also the seven empty heads of grain blasted with the east wind; they will be seven years of famine.
28 “Haka yake kamar yadda na faɗa wa Fir’auna cewa Allah ya nuna wa Fir’auna abin da yake shirin yi.
That is the thing which I have spoken to Pharaoh. God has shown Pharaoh what he is about to do.
29 Shekaru bakwai na yalwar abinci suna zuwa a dukan ƙasar Masar,
Behold, seven years of great plenty throughout all the land of Egypt are coming.
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.
Seven years of famine will arise after them, and all the plenty will be forgotten in the land of Egypt. The famine will consume the land,
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 the plenty will not be known in the land by reason of that famine which follows; for it will be very grievous.
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.
The dream was doubled to Pharaoh, because the thing is established by God, and God will shortly bring it to pass.
33 “Yanzu fa, bari Fir’auna yă nemi mutum mai basira da kuma hikima, yă sa shi yă shugabanci ƙasar Masar.
“Now therefore let Pharaoh look for a discreet and wise man, and set him 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 appoint overseers over the land, and take up the fifth part of the land of Egypt’s produce in the seven plenteous 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.
Let them gather all the food of these good years that come, and store grain under the hand of Pharaoh for food in the cities, 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.”
The food will be to supply the land against the seven years of famine, which will be in the land of Egypt; so that the land will not perish through the famine.”
37 Shirin ya yi wa Fir’auna da kuma dukan hafsoshinsa kyau.
The thing was good in the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of 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?”
Pharaoh said to his servants, “Can we find such a one 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.
Pharaoh said to Joseph, “Because God has shown you all of this, there is no one so discreet and wise as you.
40 Za ka shugabanci fadata, kuma dukan mutanena za su zama a ƙarƙashinka. Da sarauta kaɗai zan fi ka girma.”
You shall be over my house. All my people will be ruled according to your word. Only in the throne I will be greater than you.”
41 Saboda haka Fir’auna ya ce wa Yusuf, “Ga shi na sa ka zama shugaban dukan ƙasar Masar.”
Pharaoh said to Joseph, “Behold, I have set 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.
Pharaoh took off his signet ring from his hand, and put it on Joseph’s hand, and arrayed him in robes of fine linen, and put a gold chain about 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.
He made him ride in the second chariot which he had. They cried before him, “Bow the knee!” He set him 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.”
Pharaoh said to Joseph, “I am Pharaoh. Without you, no man shall lift up his hand or his foot 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.
Pharaoh called Joseph’s name Zaphenath-Paneah. He gave him Asenath, the daughter of Potiphera priest of On as a wife. Joseph went out over 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.
Joseph was thirty years old when he stood before Pharaoh king of Egypt. Joseph went out from the presence of Pharaoh, and went throughout all the land of Egypt.
47 A shekaru bakwai na yalwa, ƙasar ta ba da amfani mai yawa.
In the seven plenteous years the earth produced abundantly.
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.
He gathered up all the food of the seven years which were in the land of Egypt, and laid up the food in the cities. He stored food in each city from the fields around that city.
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.
Joseph laid up grain as the sand of the sea, very much, until he stopped counting, for it was without number.
50 Kafin shekarun yunwa su zo, Asenat’yar Fotifera, firist na On, ta haifa wa Yusuf’ya’ya maza biyu.
To Joseph were born two sons before the year of famine came, whom Asenath, the daughter of Potiphera priest of On, bore to him.
51 Yusuf ya ba wa ɗansa na fari suna Manasse ya ce, “Gama Allah ya sa na mance dukan wahalata da dukan gidan mahaifina.”
Joseph called the name of the firstborn Manasseh, “For”, he said, “God has made me forget all my toil, and all my father’s house.”
52 Ya ba wa ɗansa na biyu suna Efraim ya ce, “Gama Allah ya wadata ni cikin wahalata.”
The name of the second, he called Ephraim: “For God has made me fruitful in the land of my affliction.”
53 Shekaru bakwai na yalwa a Masar suka zo ga ƙarshe,
The seven years of plenty, that were in the land of 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.
The seven years of famine began to come, just as Joseph had said. There was famine in all lands, but in all 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.”
When all the land of Egypt was famished, the people cried to Pharaoh for bread, and Pharaoh said to all the Egyptians, “Go to Joseph. What he says to you, do.”
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.
The famine was over all the surface of the earth. Joseph opened all the store houses, and sold to the Egyptians. The famine was severe 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.
All countries came into Egypt, to Joseph, to buy grain, because the famine was severe in all the earth.
