Genesis 44

1 Binilin ni Jose ti mangay-aywan iti balayna, a kunana, “Kargaam dagiti sako dagiti lallaki iti taraon, segun iti kabaelanda nga awiten, ken ikabilmo ti kuarta ti tunggal maysa a lalaki iti ngarab dagiti sakoda.

And he commands him who [is] over his house, saying, “Fill the bags of the men [with] food, as they are able to carry, and put the money of each in the mouth of his bag;

2 Ikabilmo ti kopak, ti pirak a kopa, iti ngarab ti sako ti inaudi, ken kasta met ti kuartana a bayad ti bukel.” Inaramid ngarud ti mangay-aywan ti imbaga ni Jose.

and my cup, the silver cup, you put in the mouth of the bag of the young one, and his grain-money”; and he does according to the word of Joseph which he has spoken.

3 Lumawlawagen iti bigat, ket napalubosan a pumanaw dagiti lallaki, isuda ken dagiti asnoda.

The morning is bright, and the men have been sent away, they and their donkeys—

4 Idi nakaruardan iti siudad ngem saanda pay a nakaadayo, imbaga ni Jose iti mangay-aywan, “Tumakderka, kamatem dagiti lallaki, ket no makamatam ida, ibagam kadakuada, “Apay a sinubadanyo iti dakes ti naimbag?

they have gone out of the city—they have not gone far off—and Joseph has said to him who [is] over his house, “Rise, pursue after the men; and you have overtaken them, and you have said to them: Why have you repaid evil for good?

5 Apay a tinakawyo ti kopa a pagin-inuman ti apok, nga ar-aramatenna metlaeng nga agbuyon? Nakaaramidkayo iti dakes, gapu iti daytoy a banag a naaramidanyo.”

Is this not that with which my lord drinks? And he observes diligently with it; you have done evil [in] that which you have done.”

6 Nakamatan ida ti mangay-aywan ket insaona dagitoy a sasao kadakuada.

And he overtakes them, and speaks to them these words,

7 Kinunada kenkuana, “Apay ta agsasao ti apok iti nalabes a sasao a kas kadagitoy? Adayo nga aramiden dagiti adipenmo daytoy a banag.

and they say to him, “Why does my lord speak according to these words? Far be it from your servants to do according to this word;

8 Kitaem, ti kuarta a nasarakanmi kadagiti ngarab ti saksakomi, inyegmi manen kadakayo manipud iti daga ti Canaan. Kasano ngarud nga agtakawkami ti pirak ken balitok iti balay ni amom?

behold, the money which we found in the mouth of our bags we brought back to you from the land of Canaan, and how do we steal from the house of your lord silver or gold?

9 No siasino kadagiti adipenmo iti pakasarakanna, uray matay isuna, ken dakami met ket agbalin a tagabu iti apok.”

With whomsoever of your servants it is found, he has died, and we also are to my lord for servants.”

10 Imbaga ti mangay-aywan, “Ita ngarud, mapasamak koma a kas kadagiti imbagam. No siasino iti pakasarakan ti kopa, agbalin isuna a tagabuk, ket dakayo a dadduma, saankayo a mairaman.”

And he says, “Now also, according to your words, so it [is]; he with whom it is found becomes my servant, and you are acquitted”;

11 Kalpasanna, pinartakan ti tunggal maysa nga imbaba dagiti sakoda, ket linukatan ti tunggal maysa dagiti sakoda.

and they hurry and take down each his bag to the earth, and each opens his bag;

12 Nagbiruk ti mangay-aywan. Rinuggianna iti kalakayan ket lineppasna iti kaubingan, ket nasarakanna ti kopa iti sako ni Benjamin.

and he searches—at the eldest he has begun, and at the youngest he has completed—and the cup is found in the bag of Benjamin;

13 Rinay-abda dagiti kawesda. Nagsakay ti tunggal lalaki iti asnona ket nagsublida iti siudad.

and they tear their garments, and each loads his donkey, and they return to the city.

14 Immay ni Juda ken dagiti kakabsatna iti balay ni Jose, adda pay laeng isuna sadiay, ket nagpaklebda iti sangoananna.

And Judah and his brothers come to the house of Joseph, and he is yet there, and they fall to the earth before him;

15 Kinuna ni Jose kadakuada, “Ania daytoy a naaramidyo? Saanyo kadi nga ammo nga iti lalaki a kas kaniak ket agbuybuyon?”

and Joseph says to them, “What [is] this deed that you have done? Have you not known that a man like me diligently observes?”

16 Kinuna ni Juda, “Ania iti maibagami kenka apo? Ania iti isaomi? Wenno kasanomi nga ikalintegan dagiti bagbagimi? Naduktalan ti Dios ti basol dagiti adipenmo. Kitaenyo, dakami ket tagabum apo, dakami amin agraman ti nakasarakan iti kopa.”

And Judah says, “What do we say to my lord? What do we speak? And how do we justify ourselves? God has found out the iniquity of your servants; behold, we [are] servants to my lord, both we, and he in whose hand the cup has been found”;

17 Kinuna ni Jose, “Adayo a maaramidko ti kasta. Ti laeng lalaki a nakasarakan ti kopa ti agbalin a tagabuk, ngem dakayo a dadduma, sumang-atkayo a sitatalna iti ayan ti amayo.”

and he says, “Far be it from me to do this; the man in whose hand the cup has been found, he becomes my servant; and you, go up in peace to your father.”

18 Ket immasideg ni Juda kenkuana ket kinunana, “Apo, pangngaasim, bay-am koma nga agsao daytoy adipenmo ket denggem koma, ken saanka koma a makaunget iti adipenmo, ta sika ket kas iti Faraon.

And Judah comes near to him and says, “O my lord, please let your servant speak a word in the ears of my lord, and do not let your anger burn against your servant—for you are as Pharaoh.

19 Nagsaludsod ti apok kadagiti adipenna, kunana, 'Adda kadi amayo wenno kabsatyo a lalaki?'

My lord has asked his servants, saying, Do you have a father or brother?

20 Ket kinunami kenka apo, “Addaan pay iti amami, lakayen isuna, ken adda maysa a putotna iti kinalakayna, maysa nga ubing. Ket natayen ti kabsatna a lalaki, ken is-isuna laengen iti nabati nga anak ti inana, ket ay-ayaten unay isuna iti amana.'

And we say to my lord, We have a father, an aged one, and a child of old age, a little one; and his brother died, and he is left alone of his mother, and his father has loved him.

21 Ket imbagam kadagiti adipenmo, 'Iyegyo isuna kaniak tapno makitak isuna.'

And you say to your servants, Bring him down to me, and I set my eye on him;

22 Ket kinunami kenka apo, 'Saan a mabalin a panawan ti ubing ti amana. Ta no panawanna ti amana, matay ti amana.'

and we say to my lord, The youth is not able to leave his father, when he has left his father, then he has died;

23 Ket kinunam kadagiti adipenmo, 'Malaksid a kaduayo a sumalog ti kabsatyo a lalaki, saanyonto a makita manen ti rupak.'

and you say to your servants, If your young brother does not come down with you, you do not add to see my face.

24 Ket napasamak nga idi napankami iti adipenmo nga amak, imbagami kenkuana ti insaom apo.

And it comes to pass, that we have come up to your servant my father, that we declare to him the words of my lord;

25 Ket kinuna ti amami, 'Mapankayo manen gumatang iti taraontayo.'

and our father says, Return, buy for us a little food,

26 Ket kinunami, 'Saankami a makapan. Mapankami no kaduami ti inaudi a kabsatmi, ta saankami a mabalin a sumango iti lalaki malaksid no kaduami ti inaudi a kabsatmi.'

and we say, We are not able to go down; if our young brother is with us, then we have gone down; for we are not able to see the man’s face, and our young brother not with us.

27 Kinuna kadakami ti adipenmo nga amak, 'Ammoyo met nga inikkannak laeng iti dua nga annak a lallaki ti asawak.

And your servant my father says to us, You have known that my wife bore two to me,

28 Ket napukaw ti maysa kaniak ket kinunak, “Sigurado a narangkarangkayen isuna, ket saankon a nakita pay isuna manipud idi.”

and one goes out from me, and I say, Surely he is torn—torn! And I have not seen him since;

29 Ket no alaenyo pay daytoy maysa kaniak ket adda iti saan a nasayaat a mapasamak kenkuana, ipandakto, siak a purawen ti buokna, iti sheol gapu iti ladingit. (Sheol h7585)

when you have taken also this from my presence, and harm has met him, then you have brought down my grey hairs with evil to Sheol. (Sheol h7585)

30 Ita, ngarud, no mapanak iti adipenmo nga amak, ket saanmi a kadua ti barito, agsipud ta ti biagna ket naisinggalut iti biag ti ubing,

And now, at my coming to your servant my father, and the youth not with us (and his soul is bound up in his soul),

31 mapasamakto nga inton makitana a saanmi a kadua ti ubing, ket matayto isuna. Ket dakaminto nga adipenmo ti pakaigapuan iti panagladingitna a mangipan kenkuana iti sheol.' (Sheol h7585)

then it has come to pass, when he sees that the youth is not, that he has died, and your servants have brought down the grey hairs of your servant our father with sorrow to Sheol; (Sheol h7585)

32 Ta nagkari daytoy adipenmo iti amami maipapan iti ubing, a kinunana, 'No saanko a maisubli isuna kenka, uray siakton ti mangawit iti pammabasol ti amak iti agnanayon.'

for your servant obtained the youth by guarantee to my father, saying, If I do not bring him to you—then I have sinned against my father all the days.

33 Isu nga ita, pangngaasim ta ipalubosmo koma a daytoy nga adipenmo ti mabati a kas tagabu kenka apo, a saan ket a ti ubing, ket ipalubosmo koma a sumang-at ti ubing a kaduana dagiti kakabsatna a lallaki.

And now, please let your servant abide instead of the youth [as] a servant to my lord, and the youth goes up with his brothers,

34 Ta ania ngay ti rupak a mapan iti amak no saanko a kadua ti ubing? Mabutengak a makita ti dakes a mabalin a mapasamak iti amak.”

for how do I go up to my father, and the youth not with me? Lest I look on the evil which finds my father.”
