1 A OKI loa iho la ka aina i ka wi.
Now great famine was in the land.
2 A pau i ka aiia e lakou ka ai a lakou i lawe mai ai, mai Aigupita mai, olelo mai la ko lakou makuakane ia lakou, O hele hou oukou, e kuai i wahi ai iki na kakou.
And when they had eaten vp the vitaile, which they had brought from Egypt, their father sayd vnto them, Turne againe, and bye vs a little foode.
3 A olelo aku la o Iuda ia ia, i aku la, Ua olelo ikaika mai ua kanaka la ia makou, ua i mai, Aole oukou e ike i kuu maka, ke hele ole mai ko oukou kaikaina me oukou.
And Iudah answered him, saying, The man charged vs by an othe, saying, Neuer see my face, except your brother be with you.
4 A i hoouna oe i ko makou kaikaina me makou, alaila, hele aku makou ilalo, e kuai i ai nau.
If thou wilt sende our brother with vs, we will goe downe, and bye thee foode:
5 Aka, i hoouna ole oe ia ia, aole makou e hele aku ilalo, no ka mea, ua olelo mai ua kanaka la ia makou, Aole oukou e ike i kuu maka, ke hele ole mai ko oukou kaikaina me oukou.
But if thou wilt not send him, we wil not go downe: for the man said vnto vs, Looke me not in the face, except your brother be with you.
6 Olelo mai la o Iseraela, No ke aha la onkou i hana ino mai ai ia'u, i ka hai aku i ua kanaka la i ko oukou kaikaina?
And Israel sayd, Wherefore delt ye so euill with me, as to tell the man, whether ye had yet a brother or no?
7 Olelo aku la lakou, I ninau ikaika mai no ua kanaka la ia makou, i ko makou hoahanau, i mai la, Ke ola la no anei ko oukou makuakane? He kaikaina e anei, ko oukou? A hai aku la makou ia ia ma ke ano o keia mau olelo. Ua ike pono anei makou, e i mai ana ia, E lawe mai ilalo nei i ko oukou kaikaina?
And they answered, The man asked straitly of our selues and of our kinred, saying, Is your father yet aliue? haue ye any brother? And wee tolde him according to these wordes: could we knowe certainely that he would say, Bring your brother downe?
8 Olelo aku la o Iuda ia Iseraela i kona makuakane, E kuu mai oe i ke keiki me au, alaila ku ae makou e hele aku; i ola kakou; aole e make o makou, a o oe, a me ka kakou poe kamalii.
Then sayde Iudah to Israel his father, Send the boy with mee, that we may rise and goe, and that we may liue and not dye, both we, and thou, and our children.
9 Owau no ka panai nona; ma ko'u lima, e imi mai oe ia ia; i hoihoi ole mai au ia ia iou la, a e hoonoho ia ia mamua ou, no'u mau loa aku no ka hewa.
I wil be suertie for him: of mine hand shalt thou require him. If I bring him not to thee, and set him before thee, then let me beare the blame for euer.
10 Ina aole makou i hookaulua, ina ua hoi hou mai makou, mai ka lua o ka hele ana.
For except we had made this tarying, doutlesse by this we had returned the second time.
11 Olelo aku la ko lakou makuakane o Iseraela ia lakou, Ina pela mai, e hana i keia; e ahu i ko ka aina hua maikai iloko o ka oukou mau eke, a e lawe aku ilalo i makana na ua kanaka la; i wahi bama iki, a i wahi meli iki, a i mea ala kahi, a me ka mura, a i hua pisetakia, a i alemona.
Then their father Israel sayd vnto them, If it must needes be so now, do thus: take of the best fruites of the lande in your vessels, and bring the man a present, a little rosen, and a little hony, spices and myrrhe, nuttes, and almondes:
12 A e papalua i na kala ma ko oukou lima; a o ke kala i hoihoiia mai, maloko o ka waha o ka oukou mau eke, e halihali hou aku oukou ia mea, i ko oukou mau lima; malia paha, aole i ikeia.
And take double money in your hande, and the money, that was brought againe in your sackes mouthes: cary it againe in your hand, lest it were some ouersight.
13 E lawe aku hoi oukou i ko oukou kaikaina, a e ku nui iluna, e hele hou aku i ua kanaka la.
Take also your brother and arise, and go againe to the man.
14 A na ke Akua mana loa e haawi mai ke aloha no oukou mamua o ua kanaka la, i kuu mai ia i kela hoahanau o oukou, a ia Beniamina hoi A i nele au i kuu mau keiki, ua nele au.
And God almightie giue you mercie in the sight of the man, that hee may deliuer you your other brother, and Beniamin: but I shall be robbed of my childe, as I haue bene.
15 Lawe ae la na kanaka i ua makana la, a lawe papalua no hoi lakou i ke kala ma ko lakou lima, a ia Beniamina hoi; ku ae la lakou, a hele aku la ilalo i Aigupita, a ku aku la imua o Iosepa.
Thus the men tooke this present, and tooke twise so much money in their hande with Beniamin, and rose vp, and went downe to Egypt and stoode before Ioseph.
16 A ike mai la o Iosepa ia Beniamina me lakou, olelo ae la ia i ka luna o kona hale, E alakai oe i keia poe kanaka i ka hale, e kalua i holoholona, a e hoomakaukau hoi; no ka mea, e ai pu keia poe kanaka me au i ke awakea.
And whe Ioseph saw Beniamin with them, he sayde to his stewarde, Bring these men home and kill meate, and make ready: for the men shall eate with me at noone.
17 Hana mai la ke kanaka e like me ka Iosepa olelo ana ae; a alakai aku la ia i ua poe kanaka la, iloko o ka hale o Iosepa.
And the man did as Ioseph bad, and brought the men vnto Iosephs house.
18 Makau iho la ua poe kanaka la, no ka mea, ua alakaiia'ku la lakou iloko o ka hale o Iosepa, a olelo ae la lakou, No ka moni i hoihoiia'i iloko o ka kakou mau eke i ka manawa mamua, nolaila kakou i alakaiia mai ai iloko nei, i hoolawehala mai oia ia kakou a lele mai iluna o kakou, a e hana paa hoi ia kakou, i poe kauwa, a me ko kakou mau hoki.
Nowe when the men were brought into Iosephs house, they were afrayd, and sayd, Because of the money, that came in our sackes mouthes at the first time, are we brought, that hee may picke a quarrell against vs, and lay some thing to our charge, and bring vs in bondage and our asses.
19 Hookokoke aku la lakou i ka luna o ko Iosepa hale, a kamailio pu lakou me ia ma ka puka o ka hale;
Therefore came they to Iosephs stewarde, and communed with him at the doore of ye house.
20 I aku la lakou, E kuu haku e, i ko makou hele ana mai mamua, ua hele mai makou e kuai i ai.
And said, Oh syr, we came in deede down hither at the first time to bye foode,
21 A hiki aku la makou i kahi oioina, wehe ae la makou i ka makou mau eke, aia hoi ka moni a pau a makou iloko o ka waha o na eke a makou. A ua halihali hou mai makou ia mea ma ko makou mau lima.
And as wee came to an ynne and opened our sackes, behold, euery mans money was in his sackes mouth, euen our money in full weight, but we haue brought it againe in our handes.
22 A ua halihali mai no hoi makou ilalo nei i na moni e ae ma ko makou mau lima e kuai i ai; aole ike makou i ka mea nana i waiho ka moni a makou iloko o ka makou mau eke.
Also other money haue we brought in our handes to bye foode, but we cannot tell, who put our money in our sackes.
23 Olelo mai la kela, Aloha oukou, mai makau; na ko oukou Akua, ke Akua o ko oukou makuakane, nana i haawi ka waiwai na oukou iloko o ka oukou mau eke: ua hiki mai ka oukou moni ia'u. Alakai mai la oia ia Simeona io lakou la.
And he said, Peace be vnto you, feare not: your God and the God of your father hath giuen you that treasure in your sackes, I had your money: and he brought forth Simeon to them.
24 Alakai ae la ua kanaka la i ka poe kanaka iloko o ko Iosepa hale, a haawi mai la ia lakou i ka wai, holoi iho la lakou i ko lakou mau wawae, a haawi mai la hoi ia i ai na na hoki o lakou.
So the man led them into Iosephs house, and gaue them water to wash their feete, and gaue their asses prouender.
25 Hoomakaukau iho la lakou i ka makana i ka hele ana mai o Iosepa i ke awakea; no ka mea, ua lohe lakou, e ai ana lakou i ka ai ilaila.
And they made ready their present against Ioseph came at noone, (for they heard say, that they should eate bread there)
26 A hoi mai la o Iosepa i kona hale, halihali mai la lakou iloko o ka hale i ka makana nana, na ko lakou lima i paa ai, a kulou iho la lakou imua ona ilalo i ka honua.
When Ioseph came home, they brought the present into the house to him, which was in their handes, and bowed downe to the grounde before him.
27 Ninau mai la ia ia lakou i ko lakou noho ana, i aku la, Pehea ko oukou makuakane, o ka elemakule a oukou i olelo mai ai? Ke ola la no ia, ea?
And he asked them of their prosperitie, and sayd, Is your father the olde man, of whome ye tolde me, in good health? is he yet aliue?
28 Olelo aku la lakou, E noho pomaikai ana no kau kauwa, ka makuakane o makou, ke ola la no ia. A kulou iho la lakou a moe ilalo.
Who answered, Thy seruant our father is in good health, he is yet aliue: and they bowed downe, and made obeysance.
29 Alawa ae la kona maka iluna, ike mai la i kona kaikaina ia Beniamina, ke keiki a kona makuwahine ponoi, a i mai la ia, O ko oukou kaikaina anei keia, a oukou i olelo mai ai ia'u? A olelo ae la hoi ia, E aloha mai ke Akua ia oe, e kuu keiki.
And he lifting vp his eyes, beheld his brother Beniamin his mothers sonne, and sayde, Is this your yonger brother, of whome ye tolde me? And he said, God be merciful vnto thee, my sone.
30 Wikiwiki ae la o Iosepa; no ka mea, ua mokumokuahua kona manawa i kona kaikaina, imi ae la ia i kahi e uwe ai; komo ae la ia i kona keena maluna, a uwe iho la ilaila.
And Ioseph made haste (for his affection was inflamed towarde his brother, and sought where to weepe) and entred into his chamber, and wept there.
31 Holoi ae la ia i kona maka, hele aku la iwaho, a uumi iho la ia i kona aloha, a olelo aku la, E ho mai i ka ai.
Afterward he washed his face, and came out, and refrained himselfe, and sayd, Set on meate.
32 Kau mai la lakou nana ma ke kaawale, a na lakou ma ke kaawale, a na ko Aigupita i ai pu me ia ma ke kaawale; no ka mea, aole e hiki i ko Aigupita, ke ai pu me na Hebera, he mea haumia ia i ko Aigupita.
And they prepared for him by himselfe, and for them by themselues, and for the Egyptians, which did eate with him, by themselues, because the Egyptians might not eate bread with the Ebrewes: for that was an abomination vnto the Egyptians.
33 Noho iho la lakou imua ona, o ka hiapo e like me kona hanau mua ana, a o ka muli loa e like me kona hanau muli ana mai. Kahaha iho la ko lakou naau kekahi i kekahi.
So they sate before him: the eldest according vnto his age, and the yongest according vnto his youth. and the men marueiled among themselues.
34 Lalau ae la ia i ka ai a haawi aku la ia lakou, mai kona alo aku, ua palimaia ka Beniamina i ka lakou. Inu pu lakou a olioli me ia.
And they tooke meases from before him, and sent to them: but Beniamins mease was fiue times so much as any of theirs: and they drunke, and had of the best drinke with him.
