Genesis 43
1 Sracl in acn Canaan yokyokelik,
But the famine prevailed in the land.
2 ac ke sou lal Jacob kangla nufon wheat ma utuku Egypt me ah, Jacob el fahk nu sin tulik mukul natul, “Tal sifilpa folokla ac molema pac kutu mongo ah nasr.”
And it came to pass, when they had finished eating the corn which they had brought out of Egypt, that their father said to them, Go again; buy us a little food.
3 Ac Judah el fahk nu sel, “Mwet sac fahkma kalem na nu sesr lah kut tia ku in sifilpa utyak nu ye mutal tamulel se lasr inge fin tia wi kut.
And Judas spoke to him, saying, The man, the lord of the country, positively testified to us, saying, You shall not see my face, unless your younger brother be with you.
4 Kom fin lela tamulel se lasr inge in wi kut, na kut ac som moul mongo.
If, then, you send our brother with us, we will go down, and buy you food;
5 A kom fin tia lela, na kut tia som, mweyen mwet sac fahkma nu sesr mu ac fah tiana filfilla kut in utyak ye mutal ma lesr fin tia wi kut.”
but if you send not our brother with us, we will not go: for the man spoke to us, saying, You shall not see my face, unless your younger brother be with you.
6 Jacob el fahk, “Efu ku komtal fahkang nu sin mwet sac lah oasr pac tamulel se lomtal, oru arulana upa nu sik?”
And Israel said, Why did you harm me, inasmuch as you told the man that you had a brother?
7 Elos fahk, “Mwet sac sikalani na in siyuk kacsr ac ke sou lasr uh. El fahk, ‘Ku papa tomomtal an srakna moul? Ku oasr pac tamulel lomtal saya?’ Kut enenu na in topuk kusen siyuk lal inge. Kut ac etu fuka lah el ac sap kut in us tamulel se lasr inge wi kut?”
And they said, The man closely questioned us about our family also, saying, Does your father yet live, and have you a brother? and we answered him according to this question: did we know that he would say to us, Bring your brother?
8 Judah el fahk nu sin papa tumal, “Fuhlelma elan wiyu, ac kut ac fah mukuiyak ingena. Na ac fah wangin sesr misa ke masrinsral.
And Judas said to his father Israel, Send the boy with me, and we will arise and go, that we may live and not die, both we and you, and our store.
9 Nga ac wulewot ke moul luk sifacna, lah ma kunuk in fosrngakunul ac karinganul tuh in wangin ma el sis nwe ke na nga folokunulma nu yurum. Fin tia ouinge, lela mwata in oan fuk nwe tok.
And I engage for him; at my hand do you require him; if I bring him not to you, and place him before you, I shall be guilty toward you for ever.
10 Kut funu tia kolokin nwe inge, kut lukun som folok pacl luo lac tari.”
For if we had not tarried, we should now have returned twice.
11 Ac Jacob el fahk nu selos, “Kwal, fin pa na ‘ngan ma ac orek uh, tal us kutu fokinsak ma wo emeet ke acn sesr uh in pak lomtal an, mwe lung nu sel governor: kutu ono keng, kutu honey, mwe akyu mongo, fiten pistachio ac almond.
And Israel, their father, said to them, If it be so, do this; take of the fruits of the earth in your vessels, and carry down to the man presents of gum and honey, and frankincense, and stacte, and turpentine, and walnuts.
12 Utuk mani pac in yohk liki meet ah, mweyen komtal enenu in folokunla mani ma oan in pak lomtal ah. Sahp tafongla se pa ma sac.
And take double money in your hands, and the money that was returned in your sacks, carry back with you, lest perhaps it is a mistake.
13 Us tamulel se lomtal inge, sulaklak fahsrot.
And take your brother; and arise, go down to the man.
14 Lela God Kulana Elan oru in oasr pakomuta lun mwet sac nu sumtal, elan ma folokunulot Benjamin ac tamulel se ngia nu sumtal. Ac funu nga, tulik nutik uh fin nuna ma ac tuhlac likiyu, na ac fuka oreya.”
And my God give you favor in the sight of the man, and send away your other brother, and Benjamin, for I accordingly as I have been bereaved, am bereaved.
15 Ouinge tamulel inge eis mwe lung ac mani pacl luo yohk liki meet ah, ac mukuiyak nu Egypt, ac Benjamin el welulos. Ke elos sun acn we, elos utyak na nwe ye mutal Joseph.
And the men having taken these presents, and the double money, took in their hands also Benjamin; and they rose up and went down to Egypt, and stood before Joseph.
16 Ke Joseph el liyalak Benjamin lah el welulos, el fahk nu sin mwet kulansap se su taran ma nukewa lohm sel ah, “Usla mwet inge nu lohm ah. Elos ac wiyu mongo ke infulwen len uh. Tuh uniya soko kosro ah, ac akoela.”
And Joseph saw them and his brother Benjamin, born of the same mother; and he said to the steward of his household, Bring the men into the house, and kill beasts and make ready, for the men are to eat bread with me at noon.
17 Mwet kulansap sac oru oana ke sapkin nu sel. El pwanla tamulel inge nu lohm sel Joseph.
And the man did as Joseph said; and he brought the men into the house of Joseph.
18 Ke utukla elos nu lohm sac, elos sangeng ac nunku in elos sifacna, “Utuku kut nu inse inge ke sripen mani ma tuh oan in pak lasr ke fahsr se lasr meet ah. Elos ac forma uni kut, eisla donkey natusr uh, ac oru kut in mwet kohs lun leum sac.”
And the men, when they perceived that they were brought into the house of Joseph, said, We are brought in because of the money that was returned in our sacks at the first; even in order to inform against us, and lay it to our charge; to take us for servants, and our asses.
19 Ouinge ke elos sun acn in utyak nu in lohm ah, elos fahk nu sin mwet kulansap sac,
And having approached the man who was over the house of Joseph, they spoke to him in the porch of the house,
20 “Leum se, nunak munas porongekut. Kut tuh tuku pac nu inge meet in moul mongo.
saying, We pray [you], Sir; we came down at first to buy food.
21 Ke kut folok nu yen sesr, ac tui inkanek lasr in mongla ke fongeni, kut konauk mani lasr ah nufon, oanna oelucng in pak lun kais sie sesr. Pa kut folokonma inge.
And it came to pass, when we came to unlade, and opened our sacks, [there was] also this money of each in his sack; we have now brought back our money by weight in our hands.
22 Kut oayapa utuk mani saya in tuh sifil moli kutu mongo ah. Kut tiana etu lah su tuh folokonang mani ah nu in pak lasr ah.”
And we have brought other money with us to buy food; we know not who put the money into our sacks.
23 Mwet kulansap sac fahk, “Nimet elya kac. Nimet sangeng. Sahp God lowos, God lun papa tomowos, pa filiya mani an in pak lowos ah. Nga sruokya tari molin ma kowos eis meet ah.” Na el usalu Simeon nu yorolos.
And he said to them, [God deal] mercifully with you; be not afraid; your God, and the God of your fathers, has given you treasures in your sacks, and I have enough of your good money. And he brought Symeon out to them.
24 Mwet kulansap sac usak tamulel ekasr ah nu in lohm ah. El sang kof nu selos in ohlla nialos, ac el kiteya donkey natulos.
And he brought water to wash their feet; and gave provender to their asses.
25 Elos akoela mwe lung lalos ah, in sang nu sel Joseph ke el ac tuku ke infulwen len ah, mweyen fwackyang tari nu selos lah elos ac welul mongo.
And they prepared their gifts, until Joseph came at noon, for they heard that he was going to dine there.
26 Ke Joseph el sun lohm ah, elos us mwe lung lalos uh nu sel, ac pasrla nwe infohk uh ye mutal.
And Joseph entered into the house, and they brought him the gifts which they had in their hands, into the house; and they did him reverence with their face to the ground.
27 El siyuk selos lah elos fuka, na el sifil fahk, “Komtal tuh fahk nu sik ke matuoh lun papa tomomtal ah. El fuka? El srakna moul ac ku na?”
And he asked them, How are you? and he said to them, Is your father, the old man of whom you spoke, well? Does he yet live?
28 Elos fahk, “Papa tumasr, mwet kulansap lom, el srakna moul ac el ku na.” Na elos muta liplipi ac pasrla nwe ten ye mutal.
And they said, Your servant our father is well; he is yet alive. And he said, Blessed be that man by God; —and they bowed, and did him reverence.
29 Ke Joseph el liyalak Benjamin, ma lel, el fahk, “Ya pa inge tamulel se ma fusr emeet lomtal, ma komtal srumun nu sik ah? Ma nutik, God Elan akinsewowoye kom.”
And Joseph lifted up his eyes, and saw his brother Benjamin, born of the same mother; and he said, Is this your younger brother, whom you spoke of bringing to me? and he said, God have mercy on you, my son.
30 Na Joseph el kina tuyak ac som lukelos, mweyen el arulana asroela tulik wial inge, ac apkuran elan tungyak. Ouinge el som nu infukil sel ac tung we.
And Joseph was troubled, for his bowels yearned over his brother, and he sought to weep; and he went into his chamber, and wept there.
31 Tukun el twanla mutal el ilme ac liksreni kutong nunak lal, ac sapkin in tari yuyui mongo uh.
And he washed his face and came out, and refrained himself, and said, Set on bread.
32 Kitakat Joseph ke sie tepu uh, ac tamulel lal ah ke sie pacna tepu. Mwet Egypt ma welulos mongo uh srengla liki mwet inge ac mongo ke sie pacna tepu, ke sripen elos filiya in nunak lalos mu mwet Hebrew uh kupansuwol in welulos mongo.
And they set on [bread] for him alone, and for them by themselves, and for the Egyptians feasting with him by themselves, for the Egyptians could not eat bread with the Hebrews, for it is an abomination to the Egyptians.
33 Tamulel inge muta ke tepu se, forang nu yorol Joseph, tuh na eltal muta tak in na matwa, matu nwe ke fusr. Ke elos akilen ouiyen mutangalos, elos tukeni angetani ac arulana fwefela.
And they sat before him, the firstborn according to his seniority, and the younger according to his youth; and the men looked with amazement every one at his brother.
34 Mwe mongo uh kitakat nu selos liki tepu lal Joseph, ac kitakat Benjamin pacl limekosr yohk liki mwet wial ah nukewa. Ouinge elos welul Joseph mongo ac nim, nwe ke na elos arulana sruhila.
And they took their portions from him to themselves; but Benjamin's portion was five times as much as the portions of [the others]. And they drank and were filled with drink with him.
