1 Sa’ad da Yaƙub ya sami labari cewa akwai hatsi a Masar, sai ya ce wa’ya’yansa maza, “Don me kuke duban juna kawai?”
Pea kuo mamata ʻe Sēkope ʻoku ai ʻae koane ʻi ʻIsipite, pea pehē ʻe Sēkope ki hono ngaahi foha, “Ko e hā ʻoku mou fesiofaki ai?
2 Ya ci gaba, “Na ji cewa akwai hatsi a Masar. Ku gangara can ku sayo mana, domin mu rayu kada mu mutu.”
Pea pehē ʻe ia, Vakai, kuo u fanongo ʻoku ai ʻae koane ʻi ʻIsipite: mou ʻalu ki ai, pea mou fakatau maʻatautolu mei ai; koeʻuhi ke tau moʻui, kae ʻikai mate.”
3 Sai goma daga cikin’yan’uwan Yusuf suka gangara don su saya hatsi daga Masar.
Pea naʻe ʻalu ki ʻIsipite ke fakatau koane, ʻae ngaahi taʻokete ʻe toko hongofulu ʻo Siosefa.
4 Amma Yaƙub bai aiki Benyamin, ɗan’uwan Yusuf tare da sauran ba, gama yana tsoro kada wani abu yă faru da shi.
Ka ko Penisimani ko e tehina ʻo Siosefa, naʻe ʻikai tuku ia ʻe Sēkope ke ʻalu mo hono ngaahi taʻokete; he naʻa ne pehē; Telia naʻa tō ha kovi kiate ia.
5 Sai’ya’yan Yaƙub suka isa Masar tare da sauran mutanen don sayen abinci, gama yunwar ta kai yankin Kan’ana ma.
Pea haʻu ʻae ngaahi foha ʻo ʻIsileli ke fakatau ʻae koane mo kinautolu naʻe haʻu; he naʻe lahi ʻae honge ʻi he fonua ko Kēnani.
6 To, Yusuf ne gwamnar ƙasar wanda yake sayar da hatsi ga dukan mutanenta. Saboda haka sa’ad da’yan’uwan Yusuf suka isa, sai suka rusuna masa har ƙasa da fuskokinsu.
Pea naʻe pule pe ʻa Siosefa ʻi he fonua, pea ko ia pe naʻe fakatau ki he kakai kotoa pē ʻoe fonua; pea haʻu ʻae ngaahi taʻokete ʻo Siosefa, ʻo nau tulolo mo honau mata ki he kelekele, ʻi hono ʻao.
7 Nan da nan da Yusuf ya ga’yan’uwansa, sai ya gane su, amma ya yi kamar baƙo, ya kuma yi musu magana da tsawa. Ya tambaya, “Daga ina kuka fito?” Suka amsa, “Daga ƙasar Kan’ana, don mu saya abinci.”
Pea mamata ʻa Siosefa ki hono ngaahi taʻokete, ʻo ne ʻilo ʻakinautolu, ka naʻe mata kehe ia kiate kinautolu, ʻo ne lea mālohi kiate kinautolu: pea ne pehē kiate kinautolu, “ʻOku mou haʻu mei fē?” Pea nau talaange, “Mei he fonua ko Kēnani, ke fakatau meʻakai.”
8 Ko da yake Yusuf ya gane’yan’uwansa, su ba su gane shi ba.
Pea naʻe ʻilo ʻe Siosefa hono ngaahi taʻokete, ka naʻe ʻikai te nau ʻilo ia.
9 Sa’an nan ya tuna da mafarkansa game da su, ya kuma ce musu, “Ku’yan leƙen asiri ne! Kun zo don ku leƙi asirin ƙasar ku ga inda ba ta da tsaro.”
Pea naʻe manatu ʻe Siosefa ki he ngaahi misi naʻa ne misi ʻaki kiate kinautolu, pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “Ko e kau mataki ʻakinautolu; kuo mou haʻu ke mamata ki he telefua ʻoe fonua.”
10 Suka amsa suka ce, “A’a, ranka yă daɗe, bayinka sun zo don saya abinci ne.
Pea nau talaange kiate ia, “ʻEiki ʻoku ʻikai, ka kuo haʻu ʻa hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki ke fakatau meʻakai.
11 Mu duka’ya’yan mutum ɗaya maza ne. Bayinka mutane ne masu gaskiya, ba’yan leƙen asiri ba ne.”
Ko e ngaahi foha ʻoe tangata pe taha ʻakimautolu kotoa pē: ko e kau tangata moʻoni ʻakimautolu, ʻoku ʻikai ko e kakai mataki ʻa hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki.”
12 Ya ce musu “Sam! Kun zo ne ku ga inda ƙasarmu babu tsaro.”
Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “ʻIkai, ka kuo mou haʻu ke mamata ki he telefua ʻoe fonua.”
13 Amma suka amsa suka ce, “Bayinka dā su goma sha biyu ne,’yan’uwa,’ya’yan mutum guda maza, wanda yake zama a ƙasar Kan’ana. Ƙaraminmu yanzu yana tare da mahaifinmu, ɗayan kuma ya rasu.”
Pea naʻa nau pehē, “Ko hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki, ko e kāinga ʻe toko hongofulu ma toko ua, ko e ngaahi foha ʻoe tangata pe taha ʻi he fonua ko Kēnani; pea vakai, ko e kimui, ʻoku ʻi he ʻemau tamai he ʻaho ni, pea ko e tokotaha kuo ʻikai.”
14 Yusuf ya ce musu, “Daidai ne yadda na faɗa muku. Ku’yan leƙen asiri ne!
Pea pehē ʻe Siosefa kiate kinautolu, “Ko ia ia naʻaku lea ai kiate kimoutolu, ʻo pehē, ko e kau mataki ʻakinautolu.
15 Ga kuwa yadda za a gwada ku. Muddin Fir’auna yana a raye, ba za ku bar wannan wuri ba sai ƙaramin ɗan’uwanku ya zo nan.
E ʻahiʻahi kiate kimoutolu ʻaki ʻae meʻa ni; hangē ʻoku moʻui ʻa Felo, ʻe ʻikai te mou ʻalu ʻi heni, ʻo kapau ʻe ʻikai haʻu ki heni homou tehina.
16 Ku aiki ɗaya daga cikinku yă kawo ɗan’uwanku; za a sa sauranku a kurkuku, saboda a gwada maganarku a ga ko gaskiya ce kuke faɗi. In ba haka ba, to, da ran Fir’auna, ku’yan leƙen asiri ne!”
Fekau homou tokotaha ke ne ʻalu ʻo ʻomi homou tehina, pea ʻe nofo pōpula ʻakinautolu, koeʻuhi ke fakamoʻoni ki hoʻomou ngaahi lea, pe ʻoku ai ha moʻoni ʻiate kimoutolu; ka ka ʻikai, hangē ʻoku moʻui ʻa Felo, ko e kau mataki ʻakinautolu.”
17 Ya kuwa sa su duka a kurkuku na kwana uku.
Pea naʻa ne tuku fakataha ʻakinautolu ki he fale fakapōpula, ʻi he ʻaho ʻe tolu.
18 A rana ta uku, Yusuf ya ce musu, “Ku yi wannan za ku kuwa rayu, gama ina tsoron Allah.
Pea pehē ʻe Siosefa kiate kinautolu ʻi hono ʻaho tolu, “Mou fai eni, pea mou moʻui he ʻoku ou manavahē ki he ʻOtua;
19 In ku mutane masu gaskiya ne, ku bar ɗaya daga cikin’yan’uwanku yă zauna a kurkuku, yayinda sauranku su tafi, su kai hatsi don gidajenku da suke yunwa.
Kapau ko e kau tangata angatonu ʻakinautolu, tuku ke haʻi homou tokotaha ʻi he fale ʻo homou pōpula: ka mou ʻalu ʻo fetuku ʻae koane telia ʻae honge ʻi homou ngaahi fale.
20 Amma dole ku kawo ƙaramin ɗan’uwanku gare ni, saboda a tabbatar da maganarku har ba za ku mutu ba.” Suka kuwa yi haka.
Ka mou ʻomi homou tehina kiate au; ko ia ʻe fakamoʻoni ai hoʻomou ngaahi lea, pea ʻe ʻikai te mou mate. Pea naʻa nau fai ia.”
21 Sai suka ce wa juna, “Tabbatacce ana hukunta mu ne saboda ɗan’uwanmu. Mun ga yadda ya yi wahala sa’ad da ya roƙe mu saboda ransa, amma ba mu saurare shi ba, shi ya sa wannan wahala ta zo mana.”
Pea naʻa nau fealēleaʻaki ʻo pehē, “Ko e moʻoni, ʻoku tau kovi ko e meʻa ʻi hotau tehina, ko e meʻa ʻi heʻetau mamata ki he feinga ʻa hono laumālie, ʻi heʻene fakakole kiate kitautolu, ka naʻe ʻikai te tau fie tokanga kiate ia; ko ia kuo tō ai ʻae mamahi ni kiate kitautolu.”
22 Ruben ya amsa, “Ban faɗa muku cewa kada ku ɗauki alhakin yaron nan ba, sai kuka ƙi ji, to, yau ga alhakin jininsa muke biya.”
Pea lea ʻa Lupeni kiate kinautolu, ʻo pehē, “ʻIkai ne u lea kiate kimoutolu, ʻo pehē, ʻoua naʻa mou fai hala ki he tamasiʻi, ka naʻe ʻikai te mou tokanga? Ko ia, vakai, ʻoku ʻeke foki ʻae totongi ʻo hono toto.”
23 Ba su san cewa Yusuf yana jin su ba, da yake yana amfani da mai fassara ne.
Pea naʻe ʻikai te nau ʻilo ʻoku ʻilo ʻe Siosefa ʻenau lea; he naʻe lea ia kiate kinautolu ʻaki ʻae tangata hiki lea.
24 Sai ya juya daga gare su ya yi kuka, sa’an nan ya dawo ya yi musu magana kuma. Ya sa aka ɗauke Simeyon daga gare su, aka daure shi a idanunsu.
Pea naʻe foki atu ia ʻiate kinautolu ʻo tangi; pea toe haʻu ia kiate kinautolu, ke nau alea, pea naʻa ne toʻo ʻa Simione ʻiate kinautolu, ʻo haʻi ia ʻi honau ʻao.
25 Yusuf ya yi umarni a cika buhunansu da hatsi, a kuma sa azurfan kowane mutum a cikin buhunsa, a kuma ba su kalaci don tafiyarsu. Bayan aka yi musu wannan,
Pea naʻe fekau ʻa Siosefa ke fakafonu ʻenau ngaahi tangai ʻi he koane, pea ke toe ai ki he tangai ʻae tangata taki taha, ʻene paʻanga, pea ke tuku kiate kinautolu ʻae ʻoho ke kai ʻi he hala; pea naʻe fai pehē ia kiate kinautolu.
26 suka jibga hatsinsu a kan jakuna, sai suka kama hanya.
Pea naʻa nau fakaheka ʻae koane ki heʻenau fanga asi, pea nau ʻalu.
27 A wurin da suka tsaya don su kwana, ɗaya daga cikinsu ya buɗe buhunsa don yă ciyar da jakinsa, sai ya ga azurfansa a bakin buhunsa.
Pea ʻi he toʻo ʻe honau tokotaha ʻene tangai ke ʻatu ʻae meʻakai ki heʻene ʻasi ʻi he fale talifononga, naʻe ʻilo ʻe ia ʻene ngaahi paʻanga; he vakai naʻe ʻi he ngutu ʻoe tangai ia.
28 Sai ya ce wa’yan’uwansa, “An mayar mini da azurfata. Ga shi a cikin buhuna.” Zuciyarsu ta karai, suka dubi juna suna rawan jiki, suka ce, “Mene ne wannan da Allah ya yi mana?”
Pea pehē ʻe ia ki hono ngaahi tokoua, “Kuo toe ʻomi ʻeku ngaahi paʻanga; he vakai, ʻoku ʻi he ngutu ʻo ʻeku tangai;” pea naʻe vaivai ai honau loto, pea nau manavahē, ʻo fepehēʻaki, “Ko e hā eni kuo fai ʻe he ʻOtua kiate kitautolu?”
29 Sa’ad da suka zo wurin mahaifinsu Yaƙub a ƙasar Kan’ana, suka faɗa masa dukan abin da ya faru da su. Suka ce,
Pea naʻa nau haʻu kia Sēkope ko e nau tamai ki he fonua ko Kēnani, ʻo nau fakahā kiate ia ʻae meʻa kotoa pē naʻe hoko kiate kinautolu; ʻo pehē,
30 “Mutumin da yake shugaba a ƙasar ya yi mana matsananciyar magana, ya kuma ɗauke mu tamƙar’yan leƙen asirin ƙasa.
“Ko e tangata ʻoku ʻeiki ʻi he fonua, naʻe lea mālohi kiate kimautolu, ʻo pehē, Ko e kau mataki ʻakinautolu ki he fonua.
31 Amma muka ce masa, ‘Mu masu gaskiya ne; mu ba’yan leƙen asiri ba ne.
Pea mau tala kiate ia, ko e kau tangata moʻoni ʻakimautolu; ʻoku ʻikai ko e kau mataki ʻakimautolu.
32 Dā mu’yan’uwa ne goma sha biyu,’ya’yan mahaifi guda maza. Ɗayanmu ya rasu, kuma ƙaramin yanzu yana tare da mahaifinmu a Kan’ana.’
Ko e kāinga ʻe toko hongofulu ma toko ua ʻakimautolu, ko e ngaahi foha ʻoe mau tamai, ko e tokotaha ʻoku ʻikai, pea ko e kimui ʻoku ʻi he ʻemau tamai he ʻaho ni, ʻi he fonua ko Kēnani.”
33 “Sai mutumin wanda yake shugaba a kan ƙasar ya ce mana, ‘Ga yadda zan san ko ku mutane masu gaskiya ne. Ku bar ɗaya daga cikin’yan’uwanku a nan tare da ni, ku ɗauki abinci domin gidajenku masu yunwa, ku tafi.
Pea ko e tangata, ko e ʻeiki ʻoe fonua, naʻe pehē kiate kimautolu, “Te u ʻilo ʻi he meʻa ni, pe ko e kau tangata moʻoni ʻakinautolu; tuku mai homou tokoua ʻe tokotaha kiate au, pea mou ʻave ʻae meʻakai ki he honge ʻo homau ngaahi fale, pea mou ʻalu;
34 Amma ku kawo mini ƙaramin ɗan’uwanku domin in san cewa ku ba’yan leƙen asiri ba ne, amma mutane ne masu gaskiya. Sa’an nan zan mayar muku da ɗan’uwanku, ku kuma iya yin sana’a a ƙasar.’”
Pea mou ʻomi ki heni, homou tehina: ko ia te u ʻilo ai, ʻoku ʻikai ko e kau mataki ʻakinautolu, ka ko e kau tangata moʻoni: pea te u toe tuku ai kiate kimoutolu homou tokoua, pea te mou fakatau ʻi he fonua ni.”
35 Yayinda suke juyewa hatsi daga buhunansu, sai ga ƙunshin azurfan kowane mutum a buhunsa! Sa’ad da su da mahaifinsu suka ga ƙunshe-ƙunshen kuɗi, suka firgita.
Pea ʻi heʻenau lingi ʻenau ngaahi tangai, pea nau vakai, naʻe ʻilo taki taha ʻae tangata ʻene kato paʻanga ʻi he ngutu ʻo ʻene tangai: pea kuo mamata ʻakinautolu mo e nau tamai ki he ngaahi kato paʻanga, naʻa nau manavahē.
36 Yaƙub mahaifinsu, ya ce musu, “Kun sa ni rashin’ya’yana. Yusuf ya rasu, Simeyon kuma ba ya nan, yanzu kuma kuna so ku ɗauki Benyamin. Kome yana gāba da ni!”
Pea pehē ʻe Sēkope ko e nau tamai kiate kinautolu, “Kuo mou fakamasiva au ʻi heʻeku fānau; kuo ʻikai ʻa Siosefa, pea kuo ʻikai mo Simione, pea te mou toe ʻave mo Penisimani; ʻoku kovi ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni kotoa pē kiate au.”
37 Sai Ruben ya ce wa mahaifinsa, “Ka kashe dukan’ya’yana maza, in ban dawo da shi gare ka ba. Ka sa shi ga kulawata, zan kuwa dawo da shi.”
Pea lea ʻa Lupeni ki heʻene tamai, ʻo pehē, “Tāmateʻi hoku foha ʻe toko ua, ʻo kapau ʻe ʻikai te u toe ʻomi ia kiate koe; tuku mai ia ki hoku nima, pea te u toe ʻomi ia kiate koe.”
38 Amma Yaƙub ya ce, “Ɗana ba zai gangara zuwa can tare da ku ba, ɗan’uwansa ya rasu, shi ne kaɗai ya rage. In wani abu ya faru da shi a tafiyar da za ku yi, za ku sa furfurata ta gangara zuwa kabari cikin baƙin ciki.” (Sheol )
Pea pehē ʻe ia, “E ʻikai ʻalu hifo hoku foha mo kimoutolu, he kuo mate hono tokoua, pea ʻoku toe tokotaha pe ia; pea kapau ʻe hoko ha kovi kiate ia ʻi he hala ʻoku mou ʻalu ai, te mou ʻomi hoku ʻuluhinā ki he faʻitoka ʻi he mamahi.” (Sheol )
