1 Hagi mago'a kna evutegeno Josefena anage hu'za asmi'naze, Negafa'ma kri eri'nea nanekea antahinano, hu'za Josefe asmi'zageno, Josefe'a tare ne'mofavre'a Manasene, Efraemikizni neznavreno vu'ne.
Oluvannyuma Yusufu n’ategeezebwa nti, “Laba, kitaawo mulwadde.” Bw’atyo n’atwala batabani be Manase ne Efulayimu;
2 Vahe'mo'za Jekopuna ome asami'za, konkeno negamofo Josefe'a kagenaku ne-e, hu'za hazageno Israeli'a hanave enerino otino sipa'are mani'ne.
Yakobo n’ategeezebwa nti, “Mutabani wo azze okukulaba.” Awo Yakobo ne yeekakaba ku kitanda kye n’atuula.
3 Anante Jekopu'a anage huno Josefena asmi'ne, Tusi'a Hanave'ane Anumzamo Lusi mopare Kenani fore hunamino asomu kea hunenanteno,
N’agamba Yusufu nti, “Katonda Ayinzabyonna yandabikira e Luzi mu nsi ya Kanani n’ampa omukisa.
4 amanage huno Agra nasmi'ne, Antahio, Nagra hanugeno kagripintira vahera fore hunakare hu'za kumara ante'za nemanisage'za, vahe'mo'za hamprigara osugahaze. Ana nehu'na ana mopa kagehe'mofo zamisuge'za, erisanti hare'za mani vava hugahaze huno nasami'ne.
N’aŋŋamba nti, ‘Laba, ndikwaza n’osukkirira ne nkufuula abantu abangi, era ensi eno ndigiwa ezzadde lyo okuba obutaka bwabwe ennaku zonna.’
5 Hagi menina kagra tare mofavre znante'nane, Kenani mopare mani'nogenka, kamama Isipi mopare mani'nenka, kase znante'nana mofavrea nagrire, Efraemike Manasekea nagri mofavre manigaha'e. Rubeni'ene Simioni'enema mani'na'ankna hugaha'e.
“Kale kaakano batabani bo bombi abaakuzaalirwa mu Misiri nga sinnajja, bange; Efulayimu ne Manase baliba bange nga Lewubeeni ne Simyoni bwe bali.
6 Hanki henkama kasentesana mofavrea kagri mofavre manigahie, zamagra nezmafu zanagire makazana refko hu'za erigahaze.
N’abo abaakuzaalirwa oluvannyuma lwabwe baliba babo, banaayitibwa amannya ga baganda baabwe mu mugabo gwabwe.
7 Hagi korapara nagra Padan-Aramuti neogeno, Resoli'a frige'na nasunku hu'na afete Efrata me'nege'na, kantega Kenani mopafi Efrata vu kantega zavi eme nete'na asente'noe (E'i Betlehemie).
Kubanga bwe najja ng’ava e Paddani, ne ndaba ennaku Laakeeri n’anfiirako mu kkubo mu nsi ya Kanani, nga nkyagenda Efulasi; ne mmuziika eyo mu kkubo erigenda Efulasi, ye Besirekemu.”
8 Anante Israeli'a Josefe ne'mofavrerarena neznageno anage hune, Ama aza mofavrerarene?
Isirayiri bwe yalaba batabani ba Yusufu n’abuuza nti, “Bano be baani?”
9 Higeno Josefe'a nefankura anage huno asmi'ne, Zanagra nagri mofavre'rarene Anumzamo'a amafi mani'nogeno nami'ne. Higeno Jekopu'a anage hu'ne, Zanavrenka nagrite egena asomu kea huznantaneno.
Yusufu n’addamu kitaawe nti, “Be batabani bange, Katonda b’ampeeredde wano.” N’amugamba nti, “Nkusaba obansembereze mbasabire omukisa.”
10 Hagi Israeli'a hago ozafareno avurga keso'e osu'ne. Ana higeno Josefe'a ne'mofavreararena zanavreno uravao higeno, zananukino antako huzanante'ne.
Mu kiseera kino amaaso ga Isirayiri gaali gayimbadde olw’obukadde, nga takyasobola kulaba. Awo Yusufu n’abamusembereza, Yakobo n’abagwa mu kifuba n’abanywegera.
11 Ana huteno Israeli'a anage huno Josefena asmi'ne, Nagra kagrira kvugosafina onkagegahue hu'na nagesa antahi'noanagi, menina Anumzamo'a natrege'na kagri'ene, mofavreka'ararena tamagoe.
Isirayiri n’agamba Yusufu nti, “Saasuubira kulaba maaso go; era laba Katonda ansobozesezza okulaba n’abaana bo.”
12 Anante Josefe'a nefa amoteti mofavre'a rarena neznavreno, avugati mopafi kepri hu'ne.
Awo Yusufu n’abaggya ku maviivi ge n’avuunama wansi.
13 Ana huteno Josefe'a ana mofavre'ararena zanavreno uravao huteno, tamaga azanura Efraemina avreno, Israelina aza hoga kaziga nemino, hoga kaziga azanura Manasena avreno Israelina azan tamaga kaziga ami'ne.
Yusufu n’abatwala bombi, Efulayimu ng’ali mu mukono gwe ogwa ddyo, okwolekera ogwa Isirayiri ogwa kkono, ne Manase ng’ali mu mukono gwe ogwa kkono okwolekera ogwa Isirayiri ogwa ddyo, n’abamusembereza.
14 Manase'a nempu'amo mani'neanagi, Israeli'a henka ne'mofo Efraemi asenire tamaga azana, nenteno hoga azana, nempu'amofo asenire anteno, azana anteganti antegma huno zananunte ante'ne.
Isirayiri n’agolola omukono gwe ogwa ddyo n’aguteeka ku mutwe gwa Efulayimu eyali omuto, n’omukono gwe ogwa kkono n’aguteeka ku mutwe gwa Manase, n’ayisiŋŋanya emikono gye, kubanga Manase ye yasooka okuzaalibwa.
15 Ana huteno asomu ke Josefena hunenteno amanage hu'ne, korapa'ma nenfa Abrahamu'ene Aisakike Anumzamofo avure vano huna'a kna huno, nagrira Anumzamo mani'zaniafi sipisipi kva nehia kna huno kva hunanteno menina amagnare ehanatie.
N’awa Yusufu omukisa, n’agamba nti, “Katonda wa jjajjange Ibulayimu ne kitange Isaaka gwe baatambulira mu maaso ge, Katonda oyo ankulembedde obulamu bwange bwonna okutuusa leero,
16 Havi zampinti naza hu'nea ankeromo, asomura huranantegahie. Nagri nagimo tanagripi me'nigeno, nenfa Abrahamune Aisakikizani zanagimo'enena zanagripina meno vugahie. Hanki zamagra tusi'a vahetami erifore hu'za miko mopafi manigahaze.
Malayika oyo eyannunula okuva mu bizibu byonna, owe omukisa abalenzi bano. Erinnya lyange lyeyongerenga okutuumibwa mu bo era n’erya Ibulayimu n’erya Isaaka. Era bafuuke ekibiina ekinene mu maaso g’ensi.”
17 Hagi Josefema kegeno nefa'ma azan tamagama Efraemi asenire nentegeno muse nosuno, nefa azana Efraemi aseniretira erino Manase asenire ante'ne.
Yusufu bwe yalaba nga kitaawe atadde omukono gwe ogwa ddyo ku Efulayimu n’atakyagala, n’akwata omukono gwa kitaawe okuguggya ku mutwe gwa Efulayimu aguzze ku mutwe gwa Manase.
18 Ana nehuno Josefe'a nefana anage huno asmi'ne, Nenfaga e'inahura osunka, amamo kota fore hu'neanki tamaga kazana amamofo asenire anto.
N’agamba kitaawe nti, “Kireme kuba kityo, kitange, kubanga ono ye mubereberye, teeka omukono ogwa ddyo ku mutwe gwe.”
19 Ana hianagi nefa'a i'o nehuno anage hu'ne, Ne'nimoka nagra antahi'noe, Manasempintira rama'a vahe fore nehinkeno, rukazi huno tusi'a vahetami manigahie. Ana hu'neanagi Efraemipintira nefuna agatereno tusi'a vahetami fore huno, miko mopafina rukazi hu'za rankuma ante'za manigahaze.
Naye kitaawe n’agaana n’agamba nti, “Mmanyi, mwana wange, mmanyi nti alifuuka eggwanga era aliba mukulu; kyokka muto we aliba mukulu okumusinga era alivaamu amawanga mangi.”
20 Agra ana kna zupa asomu ke huneznanteno anage hu'ne, Israeli vahe'mo'za vahe'ma asomu kema huzmante'nakura anage hu'za hugahaze. Anumzamo'ma Efraemine, Manasekiznima asomu'ma huzanante'neaza huno Anumzamo'a asomura huramantegahie hu'za hugahaze! Nehuno agra Efraemina, Manase avuga avrente'ne!
Awo n’abasabira omukisa ku lunaku olwo ng’agamba nti, “Abaana ba Isirayiri basabiragane omukisa nga bagamba nti, ‘Katonda akuyise nga Efulayimu ne Manase.’” Bw’atyo n’ateeka Efulayimu mu maaso ga Manase.
21 Ana huteno Israeli'a Josefena anage huno asmi'ne, Kama nago! Nagra hago fri'za huanagi Anumzamo'a tamagrane mani'neno, tamavreno ete tamafahe'i mopare vugahie.
Ate Isirayiri n’agamba Yusufu nti, “Laba, nnaatera okufa, kyokka Katonda alibeera naawe era alikuzzaayo mu nsi ya bajjajjaabo.
22 Hagi masavenke huno tretre hu'nea Sekemu agona mopa bainati kazinknonteti'ene atireti'ene Amori vahera zamahe'na hanare'noa mopagi'na kafuhe'ina ozamigahuanki kagri negamue.
Wabula ggwe nkuwadde kinene okusinga baganda bo, nkuwadde ekitundu kimu ekikkirira olusozi, kye naggya ku Bamoli n’ekitala kyange n’omutego gwange.”
