1 A LAILA aole e hiki ia Iosepa ke uumi iho i ke aloha iloko ona imua o lakou a pau, o ka poe i ku pu mai la me ia: a hea aku la ia, E hele aku na kanaka a pau iwaho, mai o'u aku nei. Aole i noho mai kekahi kanaka me ia, i ka manawa a Iosepa i hoike ai ia ia iho i kona poe hoahanau.
Then Joseph could not refrain himself before all them that stood by him; and he cried: 'Cause every man to go out from me.' And there stood no man with him, while Joseph made himself known unto his brethren.
2 Hooho ae la ia i kona leo me ka uwe nui ana: a lohe ae la na kanaka o Aigupita a lohe pu no ko ka hale o Parao.
And he wept aloud; and the Egyptians heard, and the house of Pharaoh heard.
3 Olelo aku la o Iosepa i kona poe hoahanau, Owau no o Iosepa; ke ola la no anei ko'u makuakane? Aole i hiki ke ekemu iki mai kona poe hoahanau ia ia: no ka mea, makau nui iho lakou imua ona.
And Joseph said unto his brethren: 'I am Joseph; doth my father yet live?' And his brethren could not answer him; for they were affrighted at his presence.
4 A olelo aku la o Iosepa i kona poe hoahanau, E neenee mai oukou io'u nei. A neenee mai la lakou. Olelo aku la ia, Owau no o Iosepa, ko oukou kaikaina a oukou i kuai ai iloko o Aigupita.
And Joseph said unto his brethren: 'Come near to me, I pray you.' And they came near. And he said: 'I am Joseph your brother, whom ye sold into Egypt.
5 Eia hoi, mai hookaumaha oukou, aole hoi e huhu oukou ia oukou iho i ka oukou kuai ana ia'u ia nei. No ka mea, na ke Akua au i hoouna mai mamua o oukou e hoola aku.
And now be not grieved, nor angry with yourselves, that ye sold me hither; for God did send me before you to preserve life.
6 No ka mea, ua wi ae nei ka aina i keia mau makahiki elua; a elima hoi makahiki e koe, aole e mahi, aole hoi e ohi mai.
For these two years hath the famine been in the land; and there are yet five years, in which there shall be neither plowing nor harvest.
7 A ua hoouna mai ke Akua ia'u mamua o oukou, e hookoe aku ia oukou ma ka honua, a e hoola ia oukou i ke ola nui.
And God sent me before you to give you a remnant on the earth, and to save you alive for a great deliverance.
8 Aia hoi, aole na oukou i hoouna mai au ia nei, na ke Akua no, a ua hoolilo ae ia ia'u i makuakane no Parao, a i haku no kona hale a pau, a i kiaaina no Aigupita a pau.
So now it was not you that sent me hither, but God; and He hath made me a father to Pharaoh, and lord of all his house, and ruler over all the land of Egypt.
9 E wikiwiki oukou, e hoi aku i ko'u makuakane, a e i aku ia ia, Penei i olelo mai ai kau keiki o Iosepa, Ua hoolilo mai ke Akua ia'u, i haku no ka aina o Aigupita a pau; e hele mai oe ilalo io'u nei, mai hookaulua aku oe.
Hasten ye, and go up to my father, and say unto him: Thus saith thy son Joseph: God hath made me lord of all Egypt; come down unto me, tarry not.
10 A e noho oe ma ka aina o Gosena, a e kokoke mai oe me au, o oe, a me kau poe keiki, a me kau poe moopuna, a o kau poe hipa a me kau poe holoholona a me kou mea a pau loa.
And thou shalt dwell in the land of Goshen, and thou shalt be near unto me, thou, and thy children, and thy children's children, and thy flocks, and thy herds, and all that thou hast;
11 Ilaila au e malama'i ia oe: no ka mea, elima makahiki wi a koe; o ilihune oe, a me ko ka hale ou, a me kau mau mea a pau.
and there will I sustain thee; for there are yet five years of famine; lest thou come to poverty, thou, and thy household, and all that thou hast.
12 Aia hoi, ua ike ko oukou mau maka, a me ka maka o ko'u kaikaina, o Beniamina, o ko'u waha no ka i olelo aku ia oukou.
And, behold, your eyes see, and the eyes of my brother Benjamin, that it is my mouth that speaketh unto you.
13 A e hai aku oukou i ko'u makuakane i kuu hanohano a pau ma Aigupita nei, a i na mea a pau a oukou i ike ai: a e wikiwiki oukou e lawe mai i ko'u makuakane ilalo.
And ye shall tell my father of all my glory in Egypt, and of all that ye have seen; and ye shall hasten and bring down my father hither.'
14 Kau iho la ia ma ka a-i o kona kaikaina, o Beniamina, a uwe iho la; a uwe iho la hoi o Beniamina ma kona a-i.
And he fell upon his brother Benjamin's neck, and wept; and Benjamin wept upon his neck.
15 Honi aku la o Iosepa i kona poe hoahanau a pau, a uwe iho la iluna o lakou. A mahope iho o ia mea, kamailio pu kona poe hoahanau me ia.
And he kissed all his brethren, and wept upon them; and after that his brethren talked with him.
16 Lohea iho la keia mea ma ka hale o Parao, oleloia iho la, Ua hiki mai na hoahanau o Iosepa. Ua pono hoi ia i na maka o Parao, a i na maka o kana poe kauwa.
And the report thereof was heard in Pharaoh's house, saying: 'Joseph's brethren are come'; and it pleased Pharaoh well, and his servants.
17 Olelo mai la o Parao ia Iosepa, E i aku oe i kou poe hoahanau, E hana peneia, e kau i ko oukou mea ma na hoki a hoi aku a hiki i ka aina o Kanaana.
And Pharaoh said unto Joseph: 'Say unto thy brethren: This do ye: lade your beasts, and go, get you unto the land of Canaan;
18 E kii i ko oukou makuakane, a me na mea o ko oukou hale, a e hele mai io'u nei, a na'u no e haawi aku na oukou i ka maikai o ka aina o Aigupita, a e ai hoi oukou i ka momona o ka aina.
and take your father and your households, and come unto me; and I will give you the good of the land of Egypt, and ye shall eat the fat of the land.
19 Ua kauohaia oe, e hana hoi i keia, E lawe i mau kaa no oukou, mai ka aina o Aigupita aku, no ka oukou kamalii a no ka oukou wahine, a e kii i ko oukou makuakane, a e hele mai.
Now thou art commanded, this do ye: take you wagons out of the land of Egypt for your little ones, and for your wives, and bring your father, and come.
20 Mai aua ko oukou mau maka ma ko oukou mea a pau; no ka mea, no oukou ka maikai o ka aina a pau ma Aigupita.
Also regard not your stuff; for the good things of all the land of Egypt are yours.'
21 A hana iho la na keiki a Iseraela pela; a haawi aku la o Iosepa ia lakou i mau kaa e like me ka olelo a Parao, a haawi no hoi i o na lakou ma ke ala.
And the sons of Israel did so; and Joseph gave them wagons, according to the commandment of Pharaoh, and gave them provision for the way.
22 Haawi aku la hoi ia i kapa komo no lakou a pau; a ia Beniamina, haawi aku la oia ia ia, i ekolu haneri moni, a me na kapa komo elima.
To all of them he gave each man changes of raiment; but to Benjamin he gave three hundred shekels of silver, and five changes of raiment.
23 A hoouna aku la ia no kona makuakane, he umi na hoki e lawe ana i na mea maikai o Aigupita, a he umi na hoki wahine, e lawe ana i ka palaoa a me ka ai i o na kona makuakane ma ke alanui.
And to his father he sent in like manner ten asses laden with the good things of Egypt, and ten she-asses laden with corn and bread and victual for his father by the way.
24 Pela hoi i hoouna aku ai oia i kona poe hoahanau, a hoi aku la lakou. Olelo aku ia ia lakou, Mai paio oukou ma ke alanui.
So he sent his brethren away, and they departed; and he said unto them: 'See that ye fall not out by the way.'
25 A hoi aku la lakou, mai waho mai o Aigupita, a hiki aku la i ka aina o Kanaana, ia Iakoba, i ko lakou makuakane.
And they went up out of Egypt, and came into the land of Canaan unto Jacob their father.
26 A hai aku la lakou ia ia, i aku la, E, ke ola la no o Iosepa, oia ke kiaaina o ka aina o Aigupita a pau. A maule iho la ko Iakoba naau, no ka mea, aole kela i manaoio i ka.
And they told him, saying: 'Joseph is yet alive, and he is ruler over all the land of Egypt.' And his heart fainted, for he believed them not.
27 Alaila, hai aku la lakou ia ia i ka olelo a pau a Iosepa i olelo mai ai ia lakou. A ike aku la ia i na kaa a Iosepa i hoouna mai ai e lawe ia ia, pohala iho la ka naau o ko lakou makuakane.
And they told him all the words of Joseph, which he had said unto them; and when he saw the wagons which Joseph had sent to carry him, the spirit of Jacob their father revived.
28 A olelo aku la Iseraela, Ua nui ia, na ola o Iosepa kuu keiki; e hele aku au e ike ia ia mamua o kuu make ana.
And Israel said: 'It is enough; Joseph my son is yet alive; I will go and see him before I die.'
