Farawa 44
1 Yusuf kuwa ya ba wa mai yin masa hidima a gida, waɗannan umarnai cewa, “Cika buhunan mutanen nan da abinci iyakar yadda za su iya ɗauka, ka kuma sa kuɗin kowanne a bakin buhunsa.
And he commanded him who was over his house, saying, Fill the men's sacks with food, as much as they can carry; and put every man's money in the mouth of his sack.
2 Sa’an nan ka sa kwaf nawa, wannan na azurfa a bakin buhun autan, tare da kuɗinsa na hatsi.” Sai mai hidimar ya yi kamar yadda Yusuf ya umarta.
And put my cup, the silver cup, in the mouth of the sack of the youngest, and his grain-money. And he did according to the word of Joseph which he had spoken.
3 Da gari ya waye, sai aka sallami mutanen tare da jakunansu.
In the morning, when it was light, the men were sent away, they and their asses.
4 Ba su yi nisa da birnin ba sa’ad da Yusuf ya ce wa mai yin masa hidima, “Tashi, ka bi waɗannan mutane nan da nan, in ka same su, ka ce musu, ‘Me ya sa kuka sāka alheri da mugunta?
They were gone out of the city, [and] not [yet] far off, when Joseph said to him who was over his house, Up! follow after the men; and when thou overtakest them, thou shalt say to them, Why have ye rewarded evil for good?
5 Ba da wannan kwaf ne maigidana yake sha daga ciki yana kuma yin amfani da shi don duba? Wannan mugun abu ne da kuka yi.’”
Is not this [it] in which my lord drinks, and in which indeed he divines? Ye have done evil [in] what ye have done.
6 Sa’ad da ya same su, sai ya maimaita waɗannan kalmomi gare su.
And he overtook them, and he spoke to them these words.
7 Amma suka ce masa, “Me ya sa ranka yă daɗe yake faɗin irin waɗannan abubuwa? Allah yă sawwaƙe bayinka su yi irin wannan abu!
And they said to him, Why does my lord speak such words as these? Far be it from thy servants to do such a thing!
8 Mun ma dawo maka da kuɗin da muka samu a cikin bakunan buhunanmu daga ƙasar Kan’ana. Saboda haka me zai sa mu saci azurfa ko zinariya daga gidan maigidanka?
Behold, the money that we found in our sacks' mouths we have brought again to thee from the land of Canaan; and how should we steal out of thy lord's house silver or gold?
9 In aka sami wani daga cikin bayinka da shi, zai mutu; sai sauran su zama bayin mai girma.”
With whomsoever of thy servants it is found, let him die; and we also will be my lord's bondmen.
10 Sai ya ce, “To, shi ke nan, bari yă zama yadda kuka faɗa. Duk wanda aka same shi da kwaf na azurfan zai zama bawana, sauran kuwa za su’yantu daga zargin.”
And he said, Now also [let] it [be] according to your words: let him with whom it is found be my bondman, but ye shall be blameless.
11 Da sauri kowannensu ya sauko da buhunsa ƙasa, ya buɗe.
And they hasted and laid down every man his sack on the ground, and opened every man his sack.
12 Sa’an nan mai hidimar ya fara bincike, farawa daga babba, ya ƙare a ƙaramin. Aka kuwa sami kwaf ɗin a buhun Benyamin.
And he searched carefully: he began at the eldest, and ended at the youngest; and the cup was found in Benjamin's sack.
13 Ganin wannan sai suka kyakkece rigunansu. Sa’an nan suka jibga wa jakunansu kaya, suka koma birni.
Then they rent their clothes, and loaded every man his ass, and they returned to the city.
14 Yusuf yana nan har yanzu a gida sa’ad da Yahuda da’yan’uwansa suka shiga, suka fāɗi rub da ciki a ƙasa a gabansa.
And Judah and his brethren came to Joseph's house; and he was still there; and they fell down before him to the ground.
15 Yusuf ya ce musu, “Mene ne wannan da kuka yi? Ba ku san cewa mutum kamar ni yana iya gane abubuwa ta wurin duba ba?”
And Joseph said to them, What deed is this which ye have done? Did ye not know that such a man as I can certainly divine?
16 Yahuda ya amsa ya ce, “Me za mu ce wa ranka yă daɗe? Yaya kuma za mu wanke kanmu daga wannan zargi? Allah ya tona laifin bayinka. Ga mu, za mu zama bayinka, da mu da wanda aka sami kwaf ɗin a hannunsa.”
And Judah said, What shall we say to my lord? what shall we speak, and how justify ourselves? God has found out the iniquity of thy servants; behold, we are my lord's bondmen, both we, and he in whose hand the cup has been found.
17 Amma Yusuf ya ce, “Allah yă sawwaƙe in yi haka! Mutumin da aka sami kwaf ɗin a hannunsa ne kaɗai zai zama bawana. Sauranku, ku koma ga mahaifinku da salama.”
And he said, Far be it from me to do so! The man in whose hand the cup has been found, he shall be my bondman; but as for you, go up in peace to your father.
18 Sai Yahuda ya haura zuwa wurinsa ya ce, “Ranka yă daɗe, roƙo nake, bari bawanka yă yi magana da ranka yă daɗe. Kada ka yi fushi da bawanka, ko da yake daidai kake da Fir’auna kansa.
Then Judah came near to him, and said, Ah! my lord, let thy servant, I pray thee, speak a word in my lord's ears, and let not thine anger burn against thy servant; for thou art even as Pharaoh.
19 Ranka yă daɗe ya tambayi bayinka ya ce, ‘Kuna da mahaifi ko ɗan’uwa?’
My lord asked his servants, saying, Have ye a father, or a brother?
20 Muka kuwa amsa, ‘Muna da mahaifi tsoho, akwai kuma ɗa matashi, wanda aka haifa masa cikin tsufarsa. Ɗan’uwansa ya rasu, shi ne kuwa ɗa kaɗai na mahaifiyarsa da ya rage, mahaifinsa kuwa yana ƙaunarsa.’
And we said to my lord, We have an aged father, and a child born to him in his old age, [yet] young; and his brother is dead, and he alone is left of his mother; and his father loves him.
21 “Sai ka ce wa bayinka, ‘Ku kawo mini shi don in gan shi da kaina.’
And thou saidst unto thy servants, Bring him down to me, that I may set mine eye on him.
22 Muka kuwa ce wa ranka yă daɗe, ‘Saurayin ba zai iya barin mahaifinsa ba, gama in ya bar shi, mahaifinsa zai mutu.’
And we said to my lord, The youth cannot leave his father: if he should leave his father, [his father] would die.
23 Amma ka faɗa wa bayinka, ‘Sai kun kawo ƙaramin ɗan’uwanku tare da ku, in ba haka ba, ba za ku sāke ganin fuskata ba.’
And thou saidst to thy servants, Unless your youngest brother come down with you, ye shall see my face no more.
24 Sa’ad da muka koma wurin bawanka mahaifinmu, sai muka faɗa masa abin da ranka yă daɗe ya ce.
And it came to pass when we came up to thy servant my father, we told him the words of my lord.
25 “Sai mahaifinmu ya ce, ‘Ku koma ku sayo ƙarin abinci.’
And our father said, Go again, buy us a little food.
26 Amma muka ce, ‘Ba za mu iya gangarawa ba, sai in ƙaramin ɗan’uwanmu yana tare da mu. Ba za mu iya ganin fuskar mutumin ba, sai ƙaramin ɗan’uwanmu yana tare mu.’
But we said, We cannot go down: if our youngest brother be with us, then will we go down; for we cannot see the man's face unless our youngest brother is with us.
27 “Bawanka mahaifinmu ya ce mana, ‘Kun san cewa matata ta haifa mini’ya’ya biyu maza.
And thy servant my father said to us, Ye know that my wife bore me two [sons];
28 Ɗayansu ya tafi daga gare ni, na kuwa ce, “Tabbatacce an yayyage shi kaca-kaca.” Ban kuwa gan shi ba tuntuni.
and the one went out from me, and I said, He must certainly have been torn in pieces; and I have not seen him [again] hitherto.
29 In kun ɗauki wannan daga wurina shi ma wani abu ya same shi, za ku kawo furfura kaina zuwa kabari cikin baƙin ciki.’ (Sheol h7585)
And if ye take this one also from me, and mischief should befall him, ye will bring down my grey hairs with misery to Sheol. (Sheol h7585)
30 “Saboda haka yanzu, in saurayin ba ya nan tare da mu sa’ad da na koma ga bawanka mahaifina, in kuma mahaifina, wanda ransa yana daure kurkusa da ran saurayin,
And now, when I come to thy servant my father, and the lad is not with us, — seeing that his life is bound up with his life,
31 ya ga cewa saurayin ba ya nan, zai mutu. Bayinka za su sa bawanka, mahaifinmu, yă mutu cikin baƙin ciki, da tsufansa. (Sheol h7585)
it will come to pass when he sees that the lad is not [there], that he will die; and thy servants will bring down the grey hairs of thy servant our father with sorrow to Sheol. (Sheol h7585)
32 Gama ni baranka na ɗauki lamunin saurayin a wurin mahaifinsa da cewa, ‘In ban komo maka da shi ba, sai alhakinsa yă zauna a kaina a gaban mahaifina, dukan raina!’
For thy servant became surety for the lad to my father, saying, If I bring him not to thee, then I shall be guilty toward my father all my days.
33 “To, yanzu, ina roƙonka bari bawanka yă zauna a nan a matsayin bawanka, ranka yă daɗe a maimakon saurayin, a kuma bar saurayin yă koma da’yan’uwansa.
And now, let thy servant stay, I pray thee, instead of the lad a bondman to my lord, and let the lad go up with his brethren;
34 Yaya zan koma ga mahaifina, in saurayin ba ya tare da ni? A’a! Kada ka bari in ga baƙin cikin da zai auko wa mahaifina.”
for how should I go up to my father if the lad were not with me? — lest I see the evil that would come on my father.
