1 Menina Jekopu'a agri nefa zoka mani'neno hu'nea mopare Kenani mani'ne.
Yakobo yabeeranga mu Kanani, ensi bajjajjaabe mwe baatambuliratambuliranga.
2 Ama'i Jekopu naga nofimofo naneke. Josefe'a 17ni'a zagegafu nehuno, nehaza ne' mani'neno nefu'zane afutami kegava hu'ne. Bilhane, Zilpagizni nefa a'tremokizini mofavre'mozane kegava hu'naze. Josefe'a nefu'za havizama nehazankea erino nezmafana ome asami'ne.
Era bino bye bifa ku lulyo lwa Yakobo: Yusufu bwe yali nga wa myaka kkumi na musanvu ng’ali ne baganda be batabani ba Biira ne Zirifa, nga balunda ekisibo ky’endiga, Yusufu n’ategeezanga Yakobo kitaabwe ebintu ebibi bye baakolanga.
3 Hagi Israeli'a (Jekopu'a) miko ne'mofavre'afintira, Josefena tusiza huno avesinte'ne. Na'ankure agra ravusefinka ante'neankino, agra avasese'ane kena tro huno antaninte'ne.
Bw’atyo Isirayiri n’ayagala nnyo Yusufu okusinga abaana be abalala, kubanga nga ye mwana ow’omu bukadde bwe; n’amutungira ekyambalo eky’amabala amangi.
4 Ana hige'za Josefe nefu'za, kazama nezmafa'ma tusiza huno agri'ma avesinentege'za nege'za, zamagra avesi nonte'za knare hu'za fru keaga huomi'naze.
Naye baganda ba Yusufu bwe baalaba nga kitaabwe amwagala okusinga bo ne bakyawa Yusufu, ne batayinza na kwogera naye na kisa.
5 Hagi mago kenagera Josefe'a ava'na keteno, afuhe'mokizmi ana avana kea zamasmige'za, zamagra mago'ene tusiza hu'za zamarimpa ahente'naze.
Lumu Yusufu n’aloota ekirooto, n’agenda n’akitegeeza baganda be, ne beeyongera nnyo okumukyawa.
6 Josefe'a amanage huno zamasami'ne, Muse (plis) hurmantoanki ava'nama ke'noa zamofo nanekea antahiho,
Yabagamba nti, “Muwulire ekirooto kino kye naloose.
7 hozafi witi ananekunkeno nagri witimo'a oti fatgo higeno, tamagri witimo'za regagi'za, nagri witirera kepri hu'naze.
Twali tusiba ebinywa by’eŋŋaano nga tuli mu nnimiro, ekinywa kyange ne kiyimuka ne kiyimirira; laba ebinywa byammwe ne bikyebungulula ne bikivuunamira.”
8 Anante nefu'za amanage hu'za antahige'naze, tagrira tagaterenka kagra kini mani'za nehano. Tamage hunka kegava hurante'za nehano, nehu'za mago'ene zamasigu hunente'za, agri avana kene, ke'anena ontahi'naze.
Baganda be ne bamugamba nti, “Olowooza olitufuga? Olowooleza ddala nti tulibeera baddu bo?” Olwo ne beeyongera nnyo okumukyayira ddala olw’ekirooto kye n’ebigambo bye.
9 Anante mago'ene ava'na keteno afuhe'i amanage huno zamasami'ne, Antahiho, mago'ene ava'nagoana, zagene, ikane, 11ni'a ofumo'za nagrite kepri hunante'naze.
Ate n’aloota ekirooto ekirala n’akitegeeza baganda be, n’agamba nti, “Ndoose ekirooto ekirala: ne ndaba enjuba n’omwezi n’emmunyeenye ekkumi n’emu nga binvuunamira.”
10 Josefe'a anage huno nefane, afuhe'inena nezmasmigeno, nafa'amo'a amanage huno kesune, Kagra nankna ava'na negane? Nagrane, negrera'ene negafu'zanena tamage huta kagrite kepri hugahuno?
Naye bwe yakitegeeza kitaawe ng’ali wamu ne baganda be, kitaawe n’amunenya ng’agamba nti, “Kirooto ki kino ky’oloose? Ddala nze ne nnyoko awamu ne baganda bo tulijja ne tuvuunama mu maaso go?”
11 Agri afuhe'za amefi'a ke hunte'nazanagi, nefa'a hakare'a nanekea antahi antahifi atre'ne.
Baganda be ne bamukwatirwa obuggya, kyokka ye kitaabwe n’akuuma ekigambo ekyo mu mutima gwe.
12 Mago'zupa agri nefu'za, nezmafa afutami avre'za traza nehogu Sekemu vu'nazageno,
Awo baganda ba Yusufu ne bagenda okumpi ne Sekemu okulunda ekisibo kya kitaabwe.
13 Israeli'a amanage huno Josefena asami'ne, Negafu'za afuzaga zamavare'za Sekemu traza me'nerega ome zamante'za mani'nazanki ege'na, huganta'nena vuo. Higeno Josefe'a amanage huno kenona hu'ne, Nagra vugahue.
Isirayiri n’alyoka agamba Yusufu nti, “Nga baganda bo bwe balundira e Sekemu, jjangu nkutume gye bali.” Yusufu n’amuddamu nti, “Nzuuno ntuma.”
14 Higeno nefa'a amanage huno Josefena asmi'ne, Menina vunka negafuzane, afuzaganena knare hu'za mani'nafi ome ketenka, ete enka kea eme nasmio. Anage nehuno huntegeno Hebroni agupofinti vuno Sekemu uhanati'ne.
N’alyoka amugamba nti, “Genda kaakano olabe obanga baganda bo n’ekisibo bali bulungi, okomewo ontegeeze.” Awo n’amutuma okuva mu kiwonvu kya Kebbulooni, n’atuuka e Sekemu.
15 Anantega ome hakeno vano nehigeno mago ne'mo anampi negeno anage huno antahige'ne, na'anku kagra nehakrane?
Awo omusajja n’amulaba ng’atangatangira ku ttale, n’amubuuza nti, “Onoonya ki?”
16 Higeno Josefe'a anage hu'ne, Nagra nafuhemokizmigu nehakroanki, muse (plis) hugantoanki inantega afu'zmia kegava hu'za mani'nafi nasmio?
N’amuddamu nti, “Noonya baganda bange, nkwegayiridde mbuulira gye balundira ekisibo.”
17 Higeno ana ne'mo'a anage huno asamine, Amafinti atre'za vunaku nehu'za, Dotani vanune nehazage'na antahi'noe. Higeno Josefe'a zamage zamavaririno vuno afuhe'ina Dotani ome zamageno erifore hu'ne.
Omusajja n’amuddamu nti, “Beeyongerayo, kubanga nabawulira nga bagamba nti, ‘Ka tugende e Dosani.’” Awo Yusufu n’agoberera baganda be n’abasanga e Dosani.
18 Hagi Josefe'a afete ne-eno eravao osu'nege'za afuhe'za nege'za, ahe frigahune hu'za kea retro hu'naze.
Baganda be ne bamulengera ng’akyali wala, era bwe yali nga tannabasemberera ne bateesa bamutte.
19 Zamagra zamagra ke hugantugama hu'za amanage hu'naze, ava'na kege nera antu e!
Ne bagambagana nti, “Sekalootera wuuyo ajja.
20 Hanki menina enketa aheta keri kampi mate'vuta nevazita, amanage hugahune. Afi zagamo aheno ne'ne, nehuta avana ke'amo'a inankna hugahifi kesune!
Kale mujje tumutte, tumusuule mu kimu ku binnya; tuligamba nti, ‘Ensolo enkambwe ye yamulya; tulabe ebirooto bye bwe birituukirira.’”
21 Ana hianagi Rubeni'a ana naneke nentahino, aza hunaku anage hu'ne, atrenketa ahe ofrisanune.
Naye Lewubeeni bwe yakiwulira n’agezaako okumuwonya mu mikono gyabwe n’agamba nti, “Tetumutta.
22 Rubeni'a mago'ene amanage huno zamagrira zamasami'ne, Aheta korana eri oragi'sunanki, amima ka'ma kopima me'nea kerifi oheta avre vazisanune. Ana hanageno agra aza huno avreno nefa ome amisigu hu'ne.
Tuleme kuyiwa musaayi; ka tumusuule mu bunnya buno wano mu nsiko. Temumuteekako mukono gwammwe.” Yayogera bw’atyo alyoke amuwonye mu mikono gyabwe, amuddize kitaawe.
23 Hanki Josefe'ma eno afuhe'inte'ma ehanatige'za, zamagra azeriza, knare avasese'ane za'za kena nefa'ma antaninte'neana zafi netre'za,
Awo Yusufu bwe yatuuka ku baganda be ne bamwambulamu ekyambalo kye eky’amabala amangi kye yali ayambadde:
24 zamagra azeri'za tinkeri kampi matevu atre'naze. Ana kerifina tina omnene.
ne bamutwala ne bamusuula mu bunnya obwali obukalu nga tebuliimu mazzi.
25 Ana hute'za, zamagra mani'ne'za ne'za nenaku nehu'za, kesga hu'za zamavua kazana, avazu hunte'za Ismaeli vahe'mo'za Giliatiti ne-eza, kemorizmifi gamune, fukinkna masave tusa masave kregefe'neane (bam) mana'nentake'za mere'ne eri'za Isipi zagore ome atrenaku e'naze.
Awo bwe baatuula okulya, ne bayimusa amaaso ne balengera ekibiina ky’Abayisimayiri nga bava e Gireyaadi, ng’eŋŋamira zaabwe zeettise ebyakaloosa, n’envumbo ne mooli nga bali mu lugendo babitwala e Misiri.
26 Juda'a amanage huno afuhe'mokizigura hu'ne, Neregnama aheta korama'a eri tagisuta nankna miza erigahune?
Yuda kwe kugamba baganda be nti, “Kitugasa ki okutta muganda waffe n’okuyiwa omusaayi gwe?
27 Agra tagri kora mani'negu ohesunanki, enketa Ismaeli vahete Josefena mizante atramneno. Hige'za nefu'za ana nanekere mago zamarimpa hu'naze.
Tumuguze Abayisimayiri. Omukono gwaffe guleme okumubaako, kubanga muganda waffe, omubiri gwaffe gwennyini.” Baganda be ne bakkiriziganya naye.
28 Anante mago'a Midiani vahe'mo'za, fenozama zagore'ma netre'za eneri'za nehaza vahe'mo'za anante neazageno, zamagra Josefena kerifinti avazuhu naga'atre'za Ismaeli vahete 20'a sekel silva zagore atre'naze. Ana hazage'za Josefena avre'za Isipi vu'naze.
Abasuubuzi, Abayisimayiri bwe baabatuukako ne baggya Yusufu mu bunnya, ne bamuguza Abayisimayiri. Baamubaguza ebitundu bya ffeeza amakumi abiri; ne bamutwala e Misiri.
29 Rubeni'a keri avazare eno keana Josefe'a kerifi omani'negeno kukena'a sgane sagnu hu'ne.
Lewubeeni bwe yadda n’alaga ku bunnya n’alaba nga Yusufu taliimu, n’ayuza engoye ze,
30 Aganahe'inte agra uhanatino amanage hu'ne, Ana mofavre'a omani'ne. Hanki nagra inankna hugahue?
n’addayo eri baganda be n’abagamba nti, “Omwana taliiyo. Kale naamunoonyeza wa?”
31 Hige'za zamagra Josefe avasese'ane kena eri'za, ve meme ahe'za ana za'za kena'a korama'afi re'za ti'za hute'za,
Awo ne baddira ekyambalo kya Yusufu, ne batta embuzi, ne bakinnyika mu musaayi.
32 anante ana avasese'ane za'za kena, mago'amo'za eri'za nezmafante uhanatiza anage hu'naze. Amama kefore'ma hu'na kena muse (plis) hugantonanki, kagri negamofo za'za kenafi ko.
Ne baddira ekyambalo ekyo eky’amabala amangi ne bakitwalira kitaabwe ne bamugamba nti, “Twalaba ekyambalo kino, kikebere olabe obanga kye kya mutabani wo.”
33 Hazageno keteno amanage hu'ne, Ama'i nagri ne'mofavremofo za'za kene. Afi zagagafamo aheno ne'ne, tamage huno Josefena amprino anitraga trogo hutre'negahie!
N’akyetegereza n’agamba nti, “Kye kyambalo kya mutabani wange! Ensolo enkambwe yamulya. Ddala Yusufu yataagulwataagulwa.”
34 Anage nehuno Jekopu'a kukena'a braro bruru huno tanefa kateno kukena'are nefreno za'za kna ne'mofonkura huno zavira ate'ne.
Awo Yakobo n’ayuza ebyambalo bye, n’akungubagira Yusufu okumala ebbanga ddene.
35 Ana hige'za mika ne'mofa'amo'za, oti'za azeri avavasenaku hu'nazanagi, azeri vava sezankura ave'osi'ne. Hagi agra amanage hu'ne, Nenamofonku zavi netena fri'na fri vahe kumapi umanigahue. Nehuno nefa'a zavi ate'ne. (Sheol h7585)
Batabani be bonna ne bawala be ne bagenda gy’ali okumusanyusa, kyokka ye n’atakkiriza kusanyusibwa. N’agamba nti, “Nedda, ndikka emagombe nga nkyakungubagira omwana wange Yusufu.” Bw’atyo Yakobo n’akungubagira nnyo Yusufu. (Sheol h7585)
36 Hagi Midiani vahe'mo'za Isipi uhanati'za Josefena mizante atrazageno, Isipi ne' Fero avate kva ne' Potifa miza se'ne.
Mu kiseera kyekimu Abamidiyaani bwe baatuuka e Misiri, Yusufu ne bamuguza Potifali, omu ku bakungu ba Falaawo; omukungu oyo ye yali omukulu wa bambowa.
