< Farawa 45 >

1 Yusuf bai ƙara iya daurewa a gaban dukan masu yi masa hidima ba, sai ya yi kuka da ƙarfi ya ce, “Kowa yă tashi daga gabana!” Saboda haka ba kowa a wurin sa’ad da Yusuf ya sanar da kansa ga’yan’uwansa.
And Joseph hath not been able to refrain himself before all those standing by him, and he calleth, 'Put out every man from me;' and no man hath stood with him when Joseph maketh himself known unto his brethren,
2 Sai ya yi kuka da ƙarfi har Masarawa suka ji, har labarin ya kai gidan Fir’auna.
and he giveth forth his voice in weeping, and the Egyptians hear, and the house of Pharaoh heareth.
3 Yusuf kuwa ya ce wa’yan’uwansa, “Ni ne Yusuf! Mahaifina yana nan da rai har yanzu?” Amma’yan’uwansa ba su iya amsa masa ba, gama sun firgita ƙwarai a gabansa.
And Joseph saith unto his brethren, 'I [am] Joseph, is my father yet alive?' and his brethren have not been able to answer him, for they have been troubled at his presence.
4 Sa’an nan Yusuf ya ce wa’yan’uwansa, “Ku zo kusa da ni.” Da suka yi haka, sai ya ce, “Ni ne ɗan’uwanku Yusuf, wannan da kuka sayar zuwa Masar!
And Joseph saith unto his brethren, 'Come nigh unto me, I pray you,' and they come nigh; and he saith, 'I [am] Joseph, your brother, whom ye sold into Egypt;
5 Yanzu dai, kada ku damu, kada kuma ku yi fushi da kanku saboda kun sayar da ni a nan, gama Allah ya aiko ni gabanku ne don in ceci rayuka.
and now, be not grieved, nor let it be displeasing in your eyes that ye sold me hither, for to preserve life hath God sent me before you.
6 Ga shi shekaru biyu ke nan ake yunwa a ƙasar, kuma da sauran shekara biyar masu zuwa da ba za a yi noma ko girbi ba.
'Because these two years the famine [is] in the heart of the land, and yet [are] five years, [in] which there is neither ploughing nor harvest;
7 Amma Allah ya aiko ni gabanku ne don in adana muku raguwa a duniya, in kuma ceci rayukanku ta wurin ceto mai girma.
and God sendeth me before you, to place of you a remnant in the land, and to give life to you by a great escape;
8 “Saboda haka fa, ba ku ba ne kuka aiko ni nan, Allah ne. Ya mai da ni mahaifi ga Fir’auna, shugaban dukan gidansa da kuma mai mulkin dukan Masar.
and now, ye — ye have not sent me hither, but God, and He doth set me for a father to Pharaoh, and for lord to all his house, and ruler over all the land of Egypt.
9 Yanzu sai ku gaggauta zuwa wurin mahaifina ku faɗa masa, ‘Abin da ɗanka Yusuf ya ce; Allah ya mai da ni shugaban dukan Masar. Gangaro wurina; kada ka jinkirta.
'Haste, and go up unto my father, then ye have said to him, Thus said Joseph thy son, God hath set me for lord to all Egypt; come down unto me, stay not,
10 Za ka yi zama a yankin Goshen, ka kasance kusa da ni. Kai,’ya’yanka da kuma jikokinka, garkunanka da shanunka, da kuma dukan abin da kake da shi.
and thou hast dwelt in the land of Goshen, and been near unto me, thou and thy sons, and thy son's sons, and thy flock, and thy herd, and all that thou hast,
11 Zan tanada maka a nan, domin akwai saura shekaru biyar na yunwa masu zuwa. In ba haka ba, kai da gidanka da dukan mallakarka za ku zama gajiyayyu.’
and I have nourished thee there — for yet [are] five years of famine — lest thou become poor, thou and thy household, and all that thou hast.
12 “Ku kanku kun gani, haka ma ɗan’uwana Benyamin, cewa tabbatacce ni ne nake magana da ku.
'And lo, your eyes are seeing, and the eyes of my brother Benjamin, that [it is] my mouth which is speaking unto you;
13 Faɗa wa mahaifina game da dukan girman da aka ba ni a Masar, da kuma game da kome da kuka gani. Ku kuma kawo mahaifina a nan da sauri.”
and ye have declared to my father all my honour in Egypt, and all that ye have seen, and ye have hasted, and have brought down my father hither.'
14 Sa’an nan ya rungume ɗan’uwansa Benyamin ya yi kuka, sai Benyamin ya rungume shi yana kuka.
And he falleth on the neck of Benjamin his brother, and weepeth, and Benjamin hath wept on his neck;
15 Ya sumbaci dukan’yan’uwansa, ya kuma yi kuka a kansu. Bayan haka sai’yan’uwansa suka yi masa magana.
and he kisseth all his brethren, and weepeth over them; and afterwards have his brethren spoken with him.
16 Sa’ad da labarin ya kai fadan Fir’auna cewa’yan’uwan Yusuf sun zo, sai Fir’auna da dukan hafsoshin suka ji daɗi.
And the sound hath been heard in the house of Pharaoh, saying, 'Come have the brethren of Joseph;' and it is good in the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of his servants,
17 Fir’auna ya ce wa Yusuf, “Faɗa wa’yan’uwanka, ‘Yi wannan; ku jibge dabbobinku ku koma zuwa ƙasar Kan’ana,
and Pharaoh saith unto Joseph, 'Say unto thy brethren, This do ye: lade your beasts, and go, enter ye the land of Canaan,
18 Ku kawo mahaifinku da iyalanku zuwa wurina. Zan ba ku mafi kyau na ƙasar Masar, za ku kuwa ci moriyar ƙasar.’
and take your father, and your households, and come unto me, and I give to you the good of the land of Egypt, and eat ye the fat of the land.
19 “An kuma umarce ka, ka faɗa musu, ‘Ku yi wannan, ku ɗauki wagonu daga Masar domin’ya’yanku da matanku, ku ɗauki mahaifinku ku zo.
'Yea, thou — thou hast been commanded: this do ye, take for yourselves out of the land of Egypt, waggons for your infants, and for your wives, and ye have brought your father, and come;
20 Kada ku damu da mallakarku, gama mafi kyau na Masar za su zama naku.’”
and your eye hath no pity on your vessels, for the good of all the land of Egypt [is] yours.'
21 Sai’ya’yan Isra’ila maza suka yi haka. Yusuf ya ba su wagonu kamar yadda Fir’auna ya umarta, ya kuma ba su guzuri don tafiyarsu.
And the sons of Israel do so, and Joseph giveth waggons to them by the command of Pharaoh, and he giveth to them provision for the way;
22 Ya ba da sababbin riguna ga kowannensu amma ga Benyamin ya ba shi shekel ɗari uku na azurfa da riguna kashi biyar.
to all of them hath he given — to each changes of garments, and to Benjamin he hath given three hundred silverlings, and five changes of garments;
23 Ga kuma abin da ya aika wa mahaifinsa, jakuna goma da aka jibge da abubuwa mafi kyau na Masar, da jakuna mata guda goma ɗauke da hatsi da burodi da waɗansu tanade-tanade don tafiyarsa.
and to his father he hath sent thus: ten asses bearing of the good things of Egypt, and ten she-asses bearing corn and bread, even food for his father for the way.
24 Sa’an nan ya sallami’yan’uwansa, yayinda suke barin wurin ya ce musu, “Kada ku yi faɗa a hanya!”
And he sendeth his brethren away, and they go; and he saith unto them, 'Be not angry in the way.'
25 Saboda haka suka haura, suka fita daga Masar, suka zo wurin maihaifinsu Yaƙub a ƙasar Kan’ana.
And they go up out of Egypt, and come in to the land of Canaan, unto Jacob their father,
26 Suka faɗa masa, “Yusuf yana da rai! Gaskiya, shi ne mai mulkin dukan Masar.” Gaban Yaƙub ya fāɗi, domin bai gaskata su ba.
and they declare to him, saying, 'Joseph [is] yet alive,' and that he [is] ruler over all the land of Egypt; and his heart ceaseth, for he hath not given credence to them.
27 Amma sa’ad da suka faɗa masa kome da Yusuf ya faɗa musu, da kuma sa’ad da ya ga wagonun da Yusuf ya aika don a ɗauke shi a kai da shi can, sai ya farfaɗo, ya dawo cikin hankalinsa.
And they speak unto him all the words of Joseph, which he hath spoken unto them, and he seeth the waggons which Joseph hath sent to bear him away, and live doth the spirit of Jacob their father;
28 Sai Yaƙub ya ce, “Na yarda! Ɗana Yusuf yana da rai har yanzu. Zan tafi in gan shi kafin in mutu.”
and Israel saith, 'Enough! Joseph my son [is] yet alive; I go and see him before I die.'
