Kinohi 42
1 A IKE ae la o Iakoba, he ai ma Aigupita, olelo aku la o Iakoba i kana poe keikikane, O ke aha ka oukou e nana aku nei, kekahi i kekahi?
Now when Jacob saw that there was corn in Egypt, Jacob said to his sons, Why do you look one on another?
2 Olelo aku la ia, Aia hoi, ua lohe au, ho ai ma Aigupita, E iho aku oukou ilaila, e kuai i ai na kakou, i ola kakou, aole e make.
And he said, Behold, I have heard that there is corn in Egypt: get you down thither, and buy for us from there; that we may live, and not die.
3 Hele aku la ka poe kaikuaana o Iosepa he umi ilalo i Aigupita e kuai i ai.
And Joseph’s ten brothers went down to buy corn in Egypt.
4 A o Beniamina, ke kaikaina o Iosepa, aole o Iakoba i hoouna aku ia ia me kona poe kaikunana, no ka mea, i olelo iho la ia, O poino kela.
But Benjamin, Joseph’s brother, Jacob sent not with his brothers; for he said, Lest peradventure mischief befall him.
5 Hele pu ae la na keiki a Iseraela iwaena o ka poe hele, e kuai i ai, no ka mea, ua wi loa ka aina o Kanaana.
And the sons of Israel came to buy corn among those that came: for the famine was in the land of Canaan.
6 O Iosepa no ke kiaaina olaila, a nana no i kuai na na kanaka a pau o ia aina. Hele mai la ka poe kaikuaana o Iosepa, a kulou iho la lakou imua ona, me na maka i ka honua.
And Joseph was the governor over the land, and he it was that sold to all the people of the land: and Joseph’s brothers came, and bowed down themselves before him with their faces to the earth.
7 A nana aku la o Iosepa i kona poe kaikuaana, ike ae la oia ia lakou, a hoohuahualau aku oia ia lakou, olelo koikoi aku la oia ia lakou, i aku la ia lakou, Nohea mai oukou? Olelo mai la lakou, No ka aina o Kanaana mai, e kuai i ai.
And Joseph saw his brothers, and he knew them, but made himself strange to them, and spoke roughly to them; and he said to them, From where come you? And they said, From the land of Canaan to buy food.
8 Ua ike no o Iosepa i kona poe kaikuaana, aole nae lakou i ike ia ia.
And Joseph knew his brothers, but they knew not him.
9 Hoomanao iho la o Iosepa i na moe ana i moe ai no lakou, i aku la oia ia lakou, He poe kiu oukou; ua hele mai oukou e nana i ka hemahema o ka aina.
And Joseph remembered the dreams which he dreamed of them, and said to them, You are spies; to see the nakedness of the land you are come.
10 Olelo mai la lakou ia ia, Aole ia, e kuu haku. I hele mai kau poe kauwa e kuai i ai.
And they said to him, No, my lord, but to buy food are your servants come.
11 He poe keiki makou a pau na ke kanaka hookahi; he poe kanaka pono, aole he poe kin makou o kau poe kauwa.
We are all one man’s sons; we are true men, your servants are no spies.
12 Olelo aku la ia ia lakou, Aole, ua hele mai nei oukou e nana i ka hemahema o ka aina.
And he said to them, No, but to see the nakedness of the land you are come.
13 Olelo mai la lakou, O kau poe kauwa, he umi makou a me kumamalua o ko makou hanauna, na keiki a ke kanaka hookahi i ka aina o Kanaana, aia hoi ka muli loa i keia la me ka makuakane o makou, a o kekahi hoi, aole ia.
And they said, Your servants are twelve brothers, the sons of one man in the land of Canaan; and, behold, the youngest is this day with our father, and one is not.
14 Olelo aku la o Iosepa ia lakou, Oia hoi ka'u i olelo aku nei ia oukou, he poe kiu oukou.
And Joseph said to them, That is it that I spoke to you, saying, You are spies:
15 I keia mea e ikea ai oukou, ma ke ola o Parao, aole oukou e hoi aku, ke hiki ole mai ko oukou kaikaina.
Hereby you shall be proved: By the life of Pharaoh you shall not go forth hence, except your youngest brother come here.
16 E hoouna ae i kekahi o oukou e kii i ko oukou kaikaina, a e paa oukou, i ikea ka oukou olelo a me ka pono io o oukou, aka, i ole, ma ke ola o Parao, he poe kiu io no oukou.
Send one of you, and let him fetch your brother, and you shall be kept in prison, that your words may be proved, whether there be any truth in you: or else by the life of Pharaoh surely you are spies.
17 A hoakoakoa mai la oia ia lakou a pau iloko o kahi paa, a ekolu la.
And he put them all together into ward three days.
18 A i ka po akolu, olelo aku la o Iosepa ia lakou, E hana oukou i keia, i ola oukou; ua makau wau i ke Akua.
And Joseph said to them the third day, This do, and live; for I fear God:
19 Ina he poe kanaka pono oukou, e paaia kekahi o oukou i ka halepaahao: e hoi aku oukou e halihali i ai na ka wi o ko oukou mau hale:
If you be true men, let one of your brothers be bound in the house of your prison: go you, carry corn for the famine of your houses:
20 A e lawe mai i ko oukou kaikaina io'u nei, pela e oiaio ai ka oukou olelo, alaila, aole oukou e make. Hana mai la lakou pela.
But bring your youngest brother to me; so shall your words be verified, and you shall not die. And they did so.
21 Olelo ae la lakou kekahi i kekahi, Ua hewa io kakou i ko kakou kaikaina, no ka mea, ua ike kakou i ka ehaeha o kona naau, i ka manawa ana i noi mai ai ia kakou, aole kakou i hoolohe aku; no ia mea, ua hiki mai keia popilikia io kakou nei.
And they said one to another, We are truly guilty concerning our brother, in that we saw the anguish of his soul, when he sought us, and we would not hear; therefore is this distress come on us.
22 A olelo aku la o Reubena ia lakou, i aku la, Aole anei au i olelo aku ia oukou, i ka i ana aku, Mai hana hewa aku i ke keiki? Aole oukou i hoolohe mai. Aia hoi, no ia mea, ua imiia mai ko ia la koko.
And Reuben answered them, saying, Spoke I not to you, saying, Do not sin against the child; and you would not hear? therefore, behold, also his blood is required.
23 Aole i ike lakou ua lohe pono o Iosepa ia lakou, no ka mea, ua olelo aku oia ia lakou, ma ke kanaka hoohalike olelo.
And they knew not that Joseph understood them; for he spoke to them by an interpreter.
24 Haliu aku la ia, mai o lakou la, a uwe iho la; haliu hou mai la oia ia lakou, kamailio pu me lakou, a lawe mai la oia ia Simeona, mai o lakou mai la, a hana paa iho la ia ia mamua o ko lakou mau maka.
And he turned himself about from them, and wept; and returned to them again, and communed with them, and took from them Simeon, and bound him before their eyes.
25 Alaila, kauoha aku la o Iosepa, e uhao i ka ai i na eke a lakou a piha, a e hoihoi i ka moni a lakou iloko o ka lakou mau eke, a e haawi aku i o na lakou no ke alanui. Pela oia i hana aku ai ia lakou.
Then Joseph commanded to fill their sacks with corn, and to restore every man’s money into his sack, and to give them provision for the way: and thus did he to them.
26 Hooili ae la lakou i ka ai iluna iho o ko lakou mau hoki, a hele aku la.
And they laded their asses with the corn, and departed there.
27 A i ka wehe ana o kekahi i kana eke, e haawi aku i ai na kona hoki, ma kahi oioina, ike ae la ia i kana moni, no ka mea, aia hoi ia ma ka waha o kana eke.
And as one of them opened his sack to give his ass provender in the inn, he espied his money; for, behold, it was in his sack’s mouth.
28 A olelo aku la ia i kona poe hoahanau, E, ua hoihoiia mai ka'u moni; eia hoi ia iloko o ka'u eke. Hikilele iho la ko lakou naau, haalulu iho la lakou, i aku la kekahi i kekahi, Heaha keia mea a ke Akua i hana mai ai ia kakou?
And he said to his brothers, My money is restored; and, see, it is even in my sack: and their heart failed them, and they were afraid, saying one to another, What is this that God has done to us?
29 A hiki lakou io Iakoba la, i ko lakou makuakane i ka aina o Kanaana, hai aku la lakou ia ia i na mea a pau i loaa'i ia lakou; i aku la,
And they came to Jacob their father to the land of Canaan, and told him all that befell to them; saying,
30 O ke kanaka, ka haku o ka aina i olelo koikoi mai ai ia makou; ua kuhi mai kela ia makou, he poe kiu no ka aina.
The man, who is the lord of the land, spoke roughly to us, and took us for spies of the country.
31 A olelo aku la makou ia ia, He poe pono makou; aohe makou he kiu.
And we said to him, We are true men; we are no spies:
32 He poe hanauna makou, he umi a me kumamalua, na keiki a ko makou makuakane; aole kekahi, a o ka muli loa, aia no ia i keia la me ko makou makuakane, i ka aina o Kanaana.
We be twelve brothers, sons of our father; one is not, and the youngest is this day with our father in the land of Canaan.
33 A o ke kanaka, ka haku o ka aina, olelo mai la ia makou, I keia mea e ikeia'i he poe kanaka pono oukou, E waiho mai oukou i kekahi hoahanau o oukou me au, a e lawe i ai na ka wi o ko oukou mau hale, a e hoi aku:
And the man, the lord of the country, said to us, Hereby shall I know that you are true men; leave one of your brothers here with me, and take food for the famine of your households, and be gone:
34 A e lawe mai oukou i ko oukou kaikaina io'u nei; alaila, ike au ia oukou, aohe kiu, he poe kanaka maikai no oukou; a e kuu aku au ia oukou i ko oukou hoahanau, a e kuai oukou iloko o keia aina.
And bring your youngest brother to me: then shall I know that you are no spies, but that you are true men: so will I deliver you your brother, and you shall traffic in the land.
35 A i ka ninini ana aku a lakou i ka lakou mau eke, aia hoi, iloko o na eke a lakou, ka lakou mau laulau moni a pau. A ike ae la lakou a me ko lakou makuakane i na laulau moni, makau nui iho la lakou.
And it came to pass as they emptied their sacks, that, behold, every man’s bundle of money was in his sack: and when both they and their father saw the bundles of money, they were afraid.
36 A olelo mai la o Iakoba ko lakou makuakane ia lakou, Ua hoonele mai oukou ia'u i ka'u mau keiki. O Iosepa, aole ia, a o Simeona, aole ia, a e lawe aku ana oukou ia Beniamina. Ke pale mai nei keia mau mea a pau ia'u.
And Jacob their father said to them, Me have you bereaved of my children: Joseph is not, and Simeon is not, and you will take Benjamin away: all these things are against me.
37 Olelo aku la o Reubena i kona makuakane, i aku la, E pepehi mai oe i ka'u mau keiki elua, ke hoihoi ole mai au ia ia nei iou la; e haawi mai oe ia ia nei i kuu lima, na'u ia e hoihoi hou mai iou la.
And Reuben spoke to his father, saying, Slay my two sons, if I bring him not to you: deliver him into my hand, and I will bring him to you again.
38 Olelo mai la ia, Aole e iho aku ka'u keiki me oukou ilaila, no ka mea, ua make kona kaikuaana, oia nei wale no koe: ina poino keia, ma ke alanui a oukou e hele ai, alaila, lawe iho oukou i ko'u oho hina i ka lua me ke kaniuhu. (Sheol h7585)
And he said, My son shall not go down with you; for his brother is dead, and he is left alone: if mischief befall him by the way in the which you go, then shall you bring down my gray hairs with sorrow to the grave. (Sheol h7585)
