1 Mgbe ahụ Josef nyere odibo nọ nʼụlọ ya iwu sị, “Gbajuo akpa ndị ikom ndị a nri. Tinyere ha nri nke onye ọbụla nʼime ha nwere ike ibu, tinyekwa ego nke onye ọbụla nʼime ha kwụrụ nʼọnụ akpa ya.
Pea fekau ʻe ia ki he tauhi ʻo hono fale ʻo pehē, “Fakapito ʻaki ʻae meʻakai ʻae ngaahi tangai ʻae kau tangata ni, ʻo fakatatau mo ia te nau faʻa fua, pea ai ʻae paʻanga ʻae tangata taki taha ki he ngutu ʻo ʻene tangai.
2 Ma tinye iko ọlaọcha m nʼime ọnụ akpa onye nke nta nʼime ha. Tinyekwa ego ọ kwụrụ nʼihi nri ọ zụrụ nʼime akpa ya.” Odibo a mere dịka Josef gwara ya.
Pea ai ʻeku ipu, ʻae ipu siliva ki he ngutuʻi tangai ʻae kimui, pea mo e paʻanga totongi ʻo ʻene koane.” Pea ne fai ʻe ia ʻo hangē ko e fekau ʻa Siosefa.
3 Mgbe chi bọrọ, ha zipụrụ ndị ikom ndị a, ha na ịnyịnya ibu ha.
Pea pongipongi hake ʻi he maʻa ʻae ʻaho, naʻe tuku ʻae kau tangata ke ʻalu, ʻakinautolu mo e nau fanga ʻasi.
4 Mgbe ha ji naanị ihe nta gafee obodo ahụ, Josef gwara odibo ya sị, “Bilie, chụso ndị ikom ndị ahụ ọsọ. I zute ha, sị ha, ‘Gịnị mere unu ji were ihe ọjọọ kwụghachi ihe ọma?
Pea kuo nau ʻalu mei he kolo, pea naʻe teʻeki ai mamaʻo fau, pea pehē ʻe Siosefa ki heʻene tauhi, “Tuʻu, ʻo tuli ʻae kau tangata; pea ʻoka ke ka maʻu ʻakinautolu, pea ke lea pehē kiate kinautolu, ‘Ko e hā kuo mou totongi kovi ai ki he lelei?’
5 Gịnị mere unu ji zuru iko ọlaọcha nna m ukwu, iko o ji aṅụ ihe ọṅụṅụ na nke o ji ajụ ase? Unu emeela ihe ọjọọ nʼihi ihe a unu mere.’”
ʻIkai ko ia ia ʻoku inu mei ai ʻa ʻeku ʻeiki, mo ia ʻoku ne fai ai ʻene ʻilo meʻa? Kuo mou fai kovi ʻi he meʻa ni.”
6 Mgbe odibo ahụ zutere ha, ọ gwara ha ihe ndị a.
Pea naʻa ne maʻu ʻakinautolu, ʻo ne lea ʻaki kiate kinautolu ʻae ngaahi lea ko ia.
7 Ma ha zara sị ya, “Nna anyị ukwu, gịnị mere i ji ekwu ụdị okwu ndị a? Ihe arụ ka ọ bụ anyị ime ihe dị otu a.
Pea nau pehēange kiate ia, “Ko e hā ʻoku lea pehē ai homauʻeiki? Ke mamaʻo ʻaupito mei hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki ʻae fai ha meʻa pehē.
8 Lee, ego anyị chọtara nʼọnụ akpa anyị ka anyị sitere nʼala Kenan weghachi. Olee otu anyị ga-esi zuru ọlaedo maọbụ ọlaọcha site nʼụlọ nna gị ukwu?
Vakai, ko e ngaahi paʻanga naʻa mau ʻilo ʻi he ngutu ʻoe mau tangai, kuo mau toe ʻomi ia kiate koe, mei he fonua ko Kēnani: pea ʻe fēfeeʻi ʻemau kaihaʻa ha siliva pe ha koula mei he fale ʻo homauʻeiki?
9 Onye ọbụla nʼime anyị a chọtara iko a nʼaka ya ga-anwụ. Anyị onwe anyị ga-aghọrọ nna anyị ukwu ndị ohu.”
Ko ia te ke ʻilo ia ki ai ʻi hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki, tuku ke mate ia, pea te mau nofo ko e kau pōpula ki heʻemau ʻeiki foki.”
10 Odibo ahụ zara sị ha, “Ka ọ dịrị dịka unu kwuru. Onye ọbụla a chọtara ya nʼaka ga-abụ ohu m. Ma ndị a na-achọtaghị ya nʼaka ha enweghị ịta ụta ọbụla.”
Pea pehē ʻe ia, “Ko eni, ke hoko ʻo tatau mo hoʻomou lea: ko ia ʻe ʻilo ai ia, ko ʻeku tamaioʻeiki ia, pea ʻe taʻehalaia ʻakinautolu.”
11 Ha mere ngwangwa, onye ọbụla tọdatara akpa ya. Onye ọbụla kwa meghere akpa ya.
Pea naʻa nau fakatoʻotoʻo ʻo tuku hifo, taki taha ʻae tangata ʻa ʻene tangai ki he kelekele, pea toʻo taki taha ʻa ʻene tangai.
12 Odibo ahụ malitere nʼonye ukwu nʼetiti ha chọọ rute nʼonye nta. Ọ bụ nʼakpa Benjamin ka a chọtara iko ahụ.
Pea ne kumi ia, ʻo kamata ʻi he ʻuluaki, ʻo aʻu ki he kimui; pea naʻe ʻilo ʻae ipu ʻi he tangai ʻa Penisimani.
13 Mgbe ahụ, ha dọwara uwe ha nʼihi mwute. Onye ọbụla nʼime ha tighachiri ibu ya nʼelu ịnyịnya ibu ya. Ha niile bidokwara ịlaghachi azụ nʼobodo ha si pụta.
Pea naʻa nau haehae honau kofu, ʻo toe ʻai ʻae kavenga taki taha ʻae tangata ki he ʻasi, ʻo nau foki ki he kolo.
14 Mgbe Juda na ụmụnne ya lọghachiri nʼụlọ Josef, ha hụrụ Josef ka ọ nọ nʼebe ahụ. Ha dara nʼala nʼihu ya.
Pea naʻe haʻu ʻa Siuta mo hono ngaahi tokoua ki he fale ʻo Siosefa; he naʻe kei ʻi ai ia; pea nau foʻohifo ʻi hono ʻao ki he kelekele.
15 Ma Josef jụrụ ha sị, “Gịnị bụ ihe a unu mere? Ọ bụ na unu amataghị na onye dịka m nwere ike ịmata onye zuru iko m?”
Pea pehē ʻe Siosefa kiate kinautolu, “Ko e hā ʻae meʻa ni kuo mou fai? He naʻe ʻikai te mou mahalo, ko e tangata hangē ko au, te u faʻa ʻiloʻi.”
16 Ya mere Juda sị ya, “Gịnị ka anyị ga-ekwu? Olee otu anyị ga-esi gosi nʼaka anyị dị ọcha? Chineke ekpugheela ikpe ọmụma ndị ohu gị. Lee, anyị bụkwa ndị ohu onyenwe m. Anyị onwe anyị, tinyekwara onye a chọtara iko ahụ nʼaka ya.”
Pea pehēange ʻe Siuta, “Ko e hā te mau lea ʻaki ki homauʻeiki? Pea te mau pehē ko e hā? Pea ʻe fēfē ʻemau fakatonuhia ʻakimautolu? Kuo ʻafioʻi ʻe he ʻOtua ʻae halaia ʻo hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki; vakai, ko e kau tamaioʻeiki ʻakimautolu ʻa homauʻeiki, ʻakimautolu mo ia foki kuo ʻilo ki ai ʻae ipu ni.”
17 Ma Josef sịrị, “Ọ ga-abụrụ m ajọ omume ime ihe dị otu ahụ. Naanị nwoke ahụ a chọpụtara iko ahụ nʼakpa ya bụ onye ga-abụ ohu m. Ma unu onwe unu nwere ike laa nʼudo jekwuru nna unu nʼudo.”
Pea pehē ʻe ia, “Tapu mo e ʻOtua ʻa ʻeku fai pehē: ka ko e tangata kuo ʻilo ʻi hono nima ʻae ipu ni, ko ʻeku tamaioʻeiki ia; ka ko kimoutolu, mou ʻalu fiemālie pe ki hoʻomou tamai.”
18 Juda jekwuuru ya, sị, “Biko, onyenwe m, kwere ka ohu gị gwa gị okwu. Ewesola mụ bụ ohu gị iwe nʼihi na ị nọ ọnọdụ dị ka Fero.
Pea naʻe ʻunuʻunu mai ʻa Siuta kiate ia, ʻo ne pehē, “Ko ʻeku ʻeiki, ʻoku ou kole kiate koe, ke ke tuku ke lea siʻi pe ʻa hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ki he fofonga ʻo hoku ʻeiki, pea ʻoua naʻa ke tuputāmaki mai ki hoʻo tamaioʻeiki: he ʻoku ke tatau mo Felo.
19 Onyenwe m, ọ bụ gị jụrụ ndị ohu gị ajụjụ sị, ‘Unu nwere nna maọbụ nwanne?’
Naʻe fehuʻi ʻa homauʻeiki ki heʻene kau tamaioʻeiki, ʻo pehē, ‘ʻOku ai hoʻomou tamai, pe ha tehina?’
20 Anyị zara sị, ‘Anyị nwere nna onye bụ agadi, na otu nwa nwoke ọ mụtara nʼagadi ya. Nwanne nwantakịrị nwoke a anwụọla, ya mere naanị otu a fọdụrụ nʼime ụmụ nke nne ha mụtara. Nna ya hụkwara ya nʼanya.’
Pea naʻa mau tala ki homauʻeiki, ‘ʻOku ai ʻemau tamai ko e tangata motuʻa, pea mo e tama ʻo ʻene motuʻa, ko e tamasiʻi siʻi; pea kuo pekia hono tokoua, pea ko ia tokotaha pe kuo toe ʻi heʻene fale, pea ʻoku ʻofa ʻene tamai kiate ia.’
21 “Mgbe ahụ, ị sị ndị ohu gị, ‘Kpọta nwantakịrị a ka m hụ ya anya.’
Pea naʻa ke pehē ki hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki, ‘Omi ia ki heni kiate au, koeʻuhi ke u sio fakapapau kiate ia.’
22 Ma anyị gwara onyenwe m sị na ‘Nwata a apụghị ịhapụ nna ya, nʼihi na nna ya ga-anwụ ma ọ bụrụ na ọ hapụ ya.’
Pea naʻa mau tala ki heʻemau ʻeiki, ‘ʻE ʻikai faʻa māvae ʻae tama mo ʻene tamai: he kapau te ne tuku ʻene tamai, ʻe pekia ai ʻene tamai:’
23 Ma ị gwara ndị ohu gị sị, ‘Unu agaghị ahụ ihu m anya ọzọ, ma ọ bụrụ na nwanne unu a esoghị unu gbadata.’
Pea naʻa ke pehē ki hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki, ‘Kapau ʻe ʻikai ʻiate kimoutolu homou tehina, ʻe ʻikai te mou toe mamata ki hoku mata.’
24 Mgbe anyị lakwuuru ohu gị bụ nna anyị, anyị gwara ya okwu onyenwe m kwuru.
Pea ʻi heʻemau hoko ki hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ko ʻemau tamai, naʻa mau fakahā kiate ia ʻae ngaahi lea ʻa homauʻeiki.
25 “Mgbe nna anyị gwara anyị sị, ‘Laghachi gaa zụta nri,’
Pea pehē ʻe heʻemau tamai, ‘Toe ʻalu ʻo fakatau ʻetau meʻakai siʻi.’
26 anyị gwara ya na, ‘Anyị agaghị agbada ma ọ bụrụ na nwanne anyị nta agaghị eso anyị. Nʼihi na anyị enweghị ike ịhụ nwoke ahụ anya, ma ọ bụrụ na nwanne anyị nta esoghị anyị.’
“Pea naʻa mau pehē, ‘ʻE ʻikai te mau faʻa ʻalu: kapau ʻe ʻiate kimautolu homau tehina, te mau ʻalu hifo: koeʻuhi ʻe ʻikai te mau mamata ki he mata ʻoe tangata, ʻo kapau ʻe ʻikai ʻiate kimautolu homau tehina.’
27 “Oge ahụ, ohu gị bụ nna anyị sịrị anyị, ‘Unu maara na nwunye m mụụrụ m ụmụ nwoke abụọ.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ko ʻemau tamai, kiate kimautolu, ‘ʻOku mou ʻilo naʻe fanauʻi kiate au ʻe hoku uaifi ʻae tama ʻe toko ua:’
28 Otu nʼime ha funarịrị m, mgbe anụ ọhịa dọkasịrị ya iperipe na iperipe. Ruo ugbu a, ahụbeghị m ya anya.
Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻae tokotaha ʻiate au, pea naʻaku pehē, ‘Ko e moʻoni kuo haehae ke iikiiki ia; pea talu mei ai naʻe ʻikai te u toe mamata kiate ia:’
29 Ọ bụrụ na unu anapụkwa m onye nke a, si otu a mee ka ihe ọjọọ zute ya, ọ pụtara na unu ga-eme ka m jiri isi awọ m laa nʼili nʼọnọdụ obi ọjọọ?’ (Sheol h7585)
Pea kapau te mou ʻave eni ʻiate au foki, pea hoko ha kovi kiate ia, te mou ō hifo hoku ʻuluhinā ʻi he mamahi ki he faʻitoka. (Sheol h7585)
30 “Ya mere, ọ bụrụ na m alaghachikwute ohu gị, bụ nna anyị, ma nwantakịrị a esoghị anyị, ebe ọ bụ na e kekọtara ndụ nna anyị na ndụ nwantakịrị a,
Pea ko eni, ʻoka hoko ʻa hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ko au ki heʻeku tamai, pea ʻikai ʻiate kimautolu ʻae tama; ko e meʻa ʻi he feohi fakataha ʻene moʻui mo e moʻui ʻae tama;
31 mgbe ọ ga-ahụ na nwantakịrị a esoghị anyị, ọ ga-anwụ. Mgbe ahụ, anyị bụ ndị ohu gị, ga-eme ka nna anyị jiri isi awọ laa nʼili nʼọnọdụ obi ọjọọ. (Sheol h7585)
ʻE hoko ʻo pehē, ʻoka mamata ia ʻoku ʻikai ʻiate kimautolu ʻae tama, ʻe pekia ia; pea ko hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki te mau fakahifo ʻae ʻuluhinā ʻo hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ko ʻemau tamai ʻi he mamahi, ki he faʻitoka. (Sheol h7585)
32 Biko, onyenwe m, eji m ndụ m zọọrọ nna m ebe na m ga-elezi nwantakịrị a anya. Asị m ya, ‘Ọ bụrụ na m akpọghachighị nwantakịrị a nye gị, ka ịta ụta bụrụ nke m nʼihu gị bụ nna m nʼụbọchị niile nke ndu m.’
He naʻe hoko ʻa hoʻo tamaioʻeiki, ko e fetongi ʻoe tama ki heʻene tamai, ʻo pehē, Kapau ʻe ʻikai te u toe ʻomi ia kiate koe, pea ke ʻiate au hono kovi ki heʻeku tamai ʻo taʻengata.
33 “Ya mere ugbu a, biko, ka ohu gị nọdụ dịka ohu onyenwe m nʼọnọdụ nwantakịrị a, ka nwantakịrị a soro ụmụnne ya laghachikwuru nna anyị.
Pea ko eni, ʻoku ou kole kiate koe, tuku ke nofo ʻa hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ko e pōpula ki heʻeku ʻeiki, ko e fetongi ʻoe tama; kae tuku ke ʻalu ʻae tama mo hono ngaahi taʻokete.
34 Aga m esi aṅaa laghachikwuru nna m ma ọ bụrụ na mụ na nwantakịrị a esoghị? Enweghị m ike ilekwasị ihe ọjọọ ga-adakwasị nna m anya.”
He koeʻuhi, ʻe fēfeeʻi ʻeku faʻa ʻalu ki heʻeku tamai, kae ʻikai ʻiate au ʻae tama? Telia naʻaku mamata ki he kovi ʻe hoko ki heʻeku tamai.”
