Olubereberye 37
1 Yakobo yabeeranga mu Kanani, ensi bajjajjaabe mwe baatambuliratambuliranga.
Pea naʻe nofo ʻa Sēkope ʻi he fonua naʻe ʻāunofo ki ai ʻene tamai, ʻio, ʻi he fonua ko Kēnani.
2 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.
Ko e hako eni ʻo Sēkope naʻe hongofulu ma fitu ʻae taʻu ʻo Siosefa, pea naʻe tauhi ʻe ia ʻae fanga manu, ʻo fakataha mo hono ngaahi taʻokete; pea naʻe nofo ʻae tama mo e ongo tama ʻa Pila, pea mo e fānau ʻa Silipa, ko e ongo sinifu ʻo ʻene tamai: pea naʻe ʻomi ʻe Siosefa ki heʻene tamai ʻenau ongoongo kovi.
3 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.
Pea naʻe ʻofa lahi hake ʻa ʻIsileli kia Siosefa ʻi heʻene fānau kotoa pē, koeʻuhi ko hono foha ia ʻi heʻene motuʻa; pea ne ngaohi maʻana ʻae kofutuʻa pulepule.
4 Naye baganda ba Yusufu bwe baalaba nga kitaabwe amwagala okusinga bo ne bakyawa Yusufu, ne batayinza na kwogera naye na kisa.
Pea kuo mamata hono ngaahi taʻokete, ʻoku ʻofa lahi hake ʻenau tamai kiate ia, ʻi hono taʻokete kotoa pē, naʻa nau fehiʻa ai kiate ia, pea naʻe ʻikai te nau lea lelei kiate ia.
5 Lumu Yusufu n’aloota ekirooto, n’agenda n’akitegeeza baganda be, ne beeyongera nnyo okumukyawa.
Pea misi ʻe Siosefa ʻae misi, pea ne tala ia ki hono ngaahi taʻokete; pea naʻe ʻāsili ai ʻenau fehiʻa kiate ia.
6 Yabagamba nti, “Muwulire ekirooto kino kye naloose.
Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “ʻOku ou kole ke mou fanongo ki he misi ni, kuo u misi ʻaki;
7 Twali tusiba ebinywa by’eŋŋaano nga tuli mu nnimiro, ekinywa kyange ne kiyimuka ne kiyimirira; laba ebinywa byammwe ne bikyebungulula ne bikivuunamira.”
He naʻa tau nonoʻo ʻae ngaahi u koane ʻi he ngoue, pea vakai, naʻe tuʻu hake ʻeku u koane, ʻo tuʻu totonu; pea vakai, ko hoʻomou ngaahi u koane naʻa nau tutuʻu hake ʻo takatakai ia, ʻo nau punou ki heʻeku u koane.”
8 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.
Pea pehē ʻe hono ngaahi taʻokete kiate ia, “He ko e moʻoni te ke pule kiate kimautolu? Pea te ke mālohi kiate kimautolu?” Pea ʻāsili ai ʻenau fehiʻa kiate ia ʻi heʻene misi, mo ʻene ngaahi lea.
9 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.”
Pea misi ia ʻae misi ʻe taha, pea ne tala ia ki hono ngaahi taʻokete, ʻo pehē, “Vakai, kuo u misi ʻae misi ʻe taha, pea vakai, ko e laʻā mo e māhina, mo e fetuʻu ʻe hongofulu ma taha, naʻa nau punou kiate au.”
10 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?”
Pea ne fakahā ki heʻene tamai, mo hono ngaahi taʻokete: pea valoki ia ʻe heʻene tamai, ʻo ne pehē kiate ia, “Ko e hā ʻae misi ni kuo ke misi ʻaki? Ko e moʻoni ʻe pehē au mo hoʻo faʻē, mo ho ngaahi taʻokete, ke mau punou ʻakimautolu kiate koe, ki he kelekele?”
11 Baganda be ne bamukwatirwa obuggya, kyokka ye kitaabwe n’akuuma ekigambo ekyo mu mutima gwe.
Pea naʻe meheka ʻa hono ngaahi taʻokete kiate ia; ka naʻe tokanga ʻene tamai ki he lea.
12 Awo baganda ba Yusufu ne bagenda okumpi ne Sekemu okulunda ekisibo kya kitaabwe.
Pea naʻe ʻalu hono ngaahi taʻokete ki Sikemi, ke fafanga ʻae fanga manu ʻa ʻenau tamai.
13 Isirayiri n’alyoka agamba Yusufu nti, “Nga baganda bo bwe balundira e Sekemu, jjangu nkutume gye bali.” Yusufu n’amuddamu nti, “Nzuuno ntuma.”
Pea pehē ʻe ʻIsileli kia Siosefa, “ʻIkai ʻoku fafanga ʻe ho ngaahi taʻokete ʻae fanga manu ʻi Sikemi?” Haʻu, pea te u fekau koe kiate kinautolu. Pea pehē ʻe ia, “Ko au eni.”
14 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.
Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate ia, “Ke ke ʻalu, ʻo vakai pe ʻoku lelei ʻa ho ngaahi taʻokete, pea lelei mo e fanga manu; pea ke haʻu ʻo tala mai.” Pea ne fekau ia mei he teleʻa ʻo Hepeloni ʻo ne hoko ki Sikemi.
15 Awo omusajja n’amulaba ng’atangatangira ku ttale, n’amubuuza nti, “Onoonya ki?”
Pea naʻe ʻilo ia ʻe he tangata ʻe taha, pea vakai, naʻe ʻalu he pe ia ʻi he fonua; pea fehuʻi ʻae tangata kiate ia, ʻo pehē, “Ko e hā ʻoku ke kumi?”
16 N’amuddamu nti, “Noonya baganda bange, nkwegayiridde mbuulira gye balundira ekisibo.”
Pea ne pehē, “ʻOku ou kumi hoku ngaahi taʻokete; ʻoku ou kole kiate koe, fakahā kiate au ʻae potu ʻoku nau fafanga ai ʻae fanga manu.”
17 Omusajja n’amuddamu nti, “Beeyongerayo, kubanga nabawulira nga bagamba nti, ‘Ka tugende e Dosani.’” Awo Yusufu n’agoberera baganda be n’abasanga e Dosani.
Pea pehēange ʻe he tangata, “Kuo nau ō, he naʻaku fanongo ki heʻenau pehē, Tau ō ki Totani.” Pea naʻe muimui ʻa Siosefa ki hono ngaahi taʻokete, pea ne ʻilo ʻakinautolu ʻi Totani.
18 Baganda be ne bamulengera ng’akyali wala, era bwe yali nga tannabasemberera ne bateesa bamutte.
Pea kuo nau mamata kiate ia, ʻi heʻene kei mamaʻo, ʻi he teʻeki ke ne ofi kiate kinautolu, naʻa nau alea fakataha, ke tāmateʻi ia.
19 Ne bagambagana nti, “Sekalootera wuuyo ajja.
Pea naʻa nau fealēleaʻaki, ʻo pehē, “Vakai, ʻoku haʻu ʻae faʻa misi ni.”
20 Kale mujje tumutte, tumusuule mu kimu ku binnya; tuligamba nti, ‘Ensolo enkambwe ye yamulya; tulabe ebirooto bye bwe birituukirira.’”
Pea ko ia ke tau tāmateʻi ia pea lī ia ki ha luo, pea te tau pehē, kuo kai ia ʻe ha manu fekai; pea te tau vakai, pe ʻe hoko ʻo fēfē ʻene ngaahi misi.
21 Naye Lewubeeni bwe yakiwulira n’agezaako okumuwonya mu mikono gyabwe n’agamba nti, “Tetumutta.
Pea fanongo ki ai ʻa Lupeni, ʻo ne fakahaofi ia mei honau nima; ʻo ne pehē, “ʻOua naʻa tau tāmateʻi ia.”
22 Tuleme kuyiwa musaayi; ka tumusuule mu bunnya buno wano mu nsiko. Temumuteekako mukono gwammwe.” Yayogera bw’atyo alyoke amuwonye mu mikono gyabwe, amuddize kitaawe.
Pea pehē ʻe Lupeni kiate kinautolu, “ʻOua naʻa lingi toto, kae lī ia ki he luo ni, ʻoku ʻi he toafa, pea ʻoua naʻa ala ha nima kiate ia;” naʻa ne pehē koeʻuhi ke ne toʻo ia mei honau nima, ke toe ʻatu ia ki heʻene tamai.
23 Awo Yusufu bwe yatuuka ku baganda be ne bamwambulamu ekyambalo kye eky’amabala amangi kye yali ayambadde:
Pea kuo hoko atu ʻa Siosefa ki hono ngaahi taʻokete, pea pehē, naʻa nau toʻo ʻae kofutuʻa ʻo Siosefa meiate ia, ʻae kofutuʻa pulepule naʻe ʻiate ia;
24 ne bamutwala ne bamusuula mu bunnya obwali obukalu nga tebuliimu mazzi.
Pea nau ʻave ia ʻo lī ki he luo; pea naʻe maha pe ʻae luo, naʻe ʻikai ʻi ai ha vai.
25 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.
Pea nau nofo ki lalo ke kai mā: pea ʻi he hanga hake honau mata ʻo sio, pea vakai, naʻe haʻu ʻae fononga ʻoe kakai ʻIsimeʻeli, naʻe haʻu mei Kiliate, mo e nau fanga kāmeli, naʻe fakaheka ki ai ʻae ngaahi ʻakau namu lelei, mo e pulu mo e pulu nanamu, ko e nau fetuku ia ki ʻIsipite.
26 Yuda kwe kugamba baganda be nti, “Kitugasa ki okutta muganda waffe n’okuyiwa omusaayi gwe?
Pea lea ʻa Siuta, ʻo pehē ki hono ngaahi taʻokete, “Ko e hā hono ʻaonga, ʻo ʻetau tāmateʻi hotau tehina, pea fufū hono toto?
27 Tumuguze Abayisimayiri. Omukono gwaffe guleme okumubaako, kubanga muganda waffe, omubiri gwaffe gwennyini.” Baganda be ne bakkiriziganya naye.
Haʻu, ke tau fakatau ia ki he kau ʻIsimeʻeli, kaeʻoua naʻa ʻiate ia hotau nima: he ko hotau tehina ia mo hotau kakano.” Pea loto ki ai ʻa hono ngaahi taʻokete.
28 Abasuubuzi, Abayisimayiri bwe baabatuukako ne baggya Yusufu mu bunnya, ne bamuguza Abayisimayiri. Baamubaguza ebitundu bya ffeeza amakumi abiri; ne bamutwala e Misiri.
Pea ʻalu ʻo ofi ki ai ʻae kakai Mitiani ko e kau fakatau: pea naʻa nau toho hake ʻa Siosefa mei he luo, pea nau fakatau ʻa Siosefa ki he kau ʻIsimeʻeli, ʻaki ʻae konga siliva ʻe uofulu; pea naʻa nau ʻave ʻa Siosefa ki ʻIsipite.
29 Lewubeeni bwe yadda n’alaga ku bunnya n’alaba nga Yusufu taliimu, n’ayuza engoye ze,
Pea toe ʻalu ʻa Lupeni ki he luo pea vakai, naʻe ʻikai ʻi he luo ʻa Siosefa pea haehae ʻe ia hono ngaahi kofu.
30 n’addayo eri baganda be n’abagamba nti, “Omwana taliiyo. Kale naamunoonyeza wa?”
Pea toe haʻu ia ki hono ngaahi tokoua, ʻo ne pehē, “Kuo ʻikai ʻae tama; pea ko au, te u ʻalu ki fē?”
31 Awo ne baddira ekyambalo kya Yusufu, ne batta embuzi, ne bakinnyika mu musaayi.
Pea naʻa nau toʻo ʻae kofutuʻa ʻo Siosefa, ʻo nau tāmateʻi ʻae ʻuhikiʻi kosi, ʻo nau unu ʻae kofutuʻa ʻi he toto:
32 Ne baddira ekyambalo ekyo eky’amabala amangi ne bakitwalira kitaabwe ne bamugamba nti, “Twalaba ekyambalo kino, kikebere olabe obanga kye kya mutabani wo.”
Pea nau fekau ke ʻave ʻae kofutuʻa pulepule ki heʻenau tamai; ʻo nau pehē, “Kuo mau ʻilo ʻae meʻa ni; pea ke vakai, pe ko e kofutuʻa ʻo ho foha pe ʻikai.”
33 N’akyetegereza n’agamba nti, “Kye kyambalo kya mutabani wange! Ensolo enkambwe yamulya. Ddala Yusufu yataagulwataagulwa.”
Pea ne ʻilo ia, ʻo ne pehē, “Ko e kofutuʻa ia ʻo hoku foha; kuo kai ia ʻe he manu fekai; kuo haehae nai, ʻo fakaikiiki ʻa Siosefa.”
34 Awo Yakobo n’ayuza ebyambalo bye, n’akungubagira Yusufu okumala ebbanga ddene.
Pea haehae ʻe Sēkope hono ngaahi kofu, pea ne ai ʻae tauangaʻa, pea ne tēngihia hono foha ʻo ʻaho lahi.
35 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)
Pea tuʻu hake hono ngaahi foha mo hono ngaahi ʻofefine ke nau fakafiemālieʻi ia; ka naʻe ʻikai te ne tali ʻae fakafiemālie; pea ne pehē, “He te u ʻalu hifo tangi pe ki he faʻitoka ki hoku foha.” Naʻe pehē ʻae tangi ʻa ʻene tamai koeʻuhi ko ia. (Sheol h7585)
36 Mu kiseera kyekimu Abamidiyaani bwe baatuuka e Misiri, Yusufu ne bamuguza Potifali, omu ku bakungu ba Falaawo; omukungu oyo ye yali omukulu wa bambowa.
Pea naʻe fakatau ia ʻe he kakai Mitiani ki ʻIsipite, kia Potifa, ko e matāpule ʻa Felo, ko e pule ʻoe kau leʻo.
