1 Awo Yusufu bwe yatwalibwa e Misiri, Potifali omukungu wa Falaawo, omukulu w’abambowa Omumisiri n’amugula okuva ku Bayisimayiri abaamutwala e Misiri.
Wɔde Yosef kɔɔ Misraim. Misraimni Potifar a na ɔyɛ Misraimhene Farao dabehene a na ɔtua asraafodɔm ano no na ɔtɔɔ Yosef firii Ismaelfoɔ adwadifoɔ no nsam.
2 Mukama n’aba ne Yusufu n’aba n’omukisa ng’ali mu nnyumba ya mukama we Omumisiri.
Na Awurade ka Yosef ho enti, nʼabrabɔ sii no yie. Ɔtenaa ne wura Misraimni no fie.
3 Ne mukama we n’alaba nga Mukama amuwadde omukisa mu buli ky’akola.
Yosef wura no hunuu sɛ, Awurade ka ne ho, na ɔyɛeɛ no, Awurade hyiraa so maa no na
4 Awo Yusufu n’aganja nnyo mu maaso ga mukama we, n’amulabiriranga, n’amufuula omukulu we nnyumba ye ne byonna bye yalina.
nʼabrabɔ sɔɔ ne wura no ani, maa ɔde no yɛɛ ne ɔboafoɔ. Ankyɛre koraa na Potifar de Yosef sii ne fiefoɔ so panin, de nʼagyapadeɛ ne nʼadwumadeɛ nyinaa hyɛɛ ne nsa.
5 Okuva olwo Mukama n’awa omukisa ennyumba y’Omumisiri olwa Yusufu. Omukisa gwa Mukama ne guba ku byonna bye yalina, mu nnyumba ne mu nnimiro.
Ɛberɛ a Potifar de Yosef sii ne fiefoɔ so panin, de nʼadwumadeɛ nyinaa hyɛɛ ne nsa no, ɛsiane Yosef enti, Awurade hyiraa Misraimni Potifar fie so. Awurade hyiraa nʼagyapadeɛ a ɛwɔ fie ne ne mfuo nyinaa so.
6 Awo Omumisiri n’ateeka byonna mu mikono gya Yusufu. Yusufu n’avunaanyizibwanga byonna okuggyako emmere mukama we gye yalyanga. Kyokka Yusufu yali mulungi nnyo, mubalagavu.
Enti, ɔde nʼagyapadeɛ nyinaa hyɛɛ Yosef nsa. Esiane sɛ Potifar de nʼagyapadeɛ ne nʼadwumadeɛ nyinaa hyɛɛ Yosef nsa enti, wannwene biribiara ho sɛ aduane a ɔbɛdi nko ara. Na Yosef yɛ aberanteɛ a ɔwɔ nnyinasoɔ, na ne ho nso yɛ fɛ yie.
7 Awo olwatuuka oluvannyuma lw’ebbanga eriwerako, mukyala wa mukama we namutunuulira n’okwegomba era n’amugamba nti, “Weebake nange.”
Ankyɛre ahe biara na Yosef wura Potifar yere tuu nʼani sii ne so. Ɛda bi, Potifar yere no ka kyerɛɛ Yosef sɛ, “Bra, na wo ne me mmɛda!”
8 Naye Yusufu n’agaana, n’agamba mukazi wa mukama we nti, “Laba, mukama wange yankwasa byonna ebiri mu nnyumba, n’abiteeka byonna mu mikono gyange,
Nanso, Yosef ampene so, ka kyerɛɛ ne wura yere no sɛ, “Esiane sɛ efie ha biribiara hyɛ me nsa enti, me wura nnwene efie ha biribiara ho. Ɔde nʼagyapadeɛ nyinaa ahyɛ me nsa.
9 era tewali n’omu ansinga mu nnyumba ye, tewali na kimu ky’atankwasa okuggyako ggwe, kubanga ggwe oli mukazi we. Kale nnyinza ntya okuyingira mu kwonoona okwenkanidde awo n’okusobya eri Katonda?”
Obiara nni tumi nsene me wɔ efie ha. Me wura mmfa biribiara nkame me wɔ efie ha sɛ wo nko ara, ɛfiri sɛ, woyɛ ne yere. Onyame mpa ngu sɛ mɛyɛ adeɛ a ɛte saa. Ɛbɛyɛ dɛn na matumi ayɛ amumuyɛdeɛ a ɛte seyie! Ɛbɛyɛ bɔne kɛseɛ atia Onyankopɔn.”
10 Newaakubadde muka mukama we yamutayirira, Yusufu ye teyamuwulira na mulundi na gumu.
Ɛwom sɛ ɛda biara da na Potifar yere no de saa asɛm yi dwan Yosef ho deɛ, nanso Yosef antwe ammɛn no mpo, na akɔwie sɛ ɔne no bɛda.
11 Naye lwali lumu Yusufu bwe yayingira mu nju okukola emirimu gye nga tewali n’omu mu nnyumba,
Ɛda koro bi, Yosef kɔɔ efie hɔ sɛ ɔrekɔyɛ nʼadwuma. Ɔduruu hɔ no, na asomfoɔ no mu biara nni hɔ.
12 muka mukama we n’akwata ekyambalo kya Yusufu nga bw’agamba nti, “Weegatte nange.” Yusufu n’amwesimatulako, ekyambalo kye ne kisigala mu ngalo z’omukazi wa mukama we. Ye n’adduka n’ava mu nnyumba.
Potifar yere no sɔɔ Yosef atadeɛ mu, ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Bra na wo ne me mmɛda!” Nanso, Yosef paa nʼatadeɛ no guu ne so, dwane firii efie hɔ.
13 Naye omukazi bwe yalaba ng’asigazza ekyambalo kya Yusufu,
Potifar yere no hunuu sɛ Yosef apa nʼatadeɛ agu ne so, na wadwane afiri efie hɔ no,
14 n’ayita abasajja ab’omu nnyumba ye n’abagamba nti, “Mulabe, yatuleetera Omwebbulaniya okutuduulira, yazze gye ndi okwebaka nange,
ɔfrɛɛ ne fiefoɔ, de nteateam ka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Monhwɛ! Me kunu akɔfa Hebrini bi aba efie ha sɛ ɔmmɛgu yɛn anim ase. Ɔbaa ha sɛ ɔrebɛto me monnaa na meteateaam.
15 bw’awulidde nga ndeekaana n’adduka n’ava mu nnyumba.”
Ɔtee sɛ mereteateam no, ɔpaa nʼatadeɛ guu me so, dwane firii fie ha.”
16 Awo kwe kutereka ekyambalo okutuusa mukama wa Yusufu lwe yadda eka.
Potifar yere no de Yosef atadeɛ a ɔpa guu ne so no sieeɛ, kɔsii sɛ ne kunu baeɛ.
17 Omukyala n’abuulira bba byonna ng’agamba nti, “Omuddu Omwebbulaniya gwe watuleetera, yayingidde gye ndi okunjooga.
Ɔbaa no bɔɔ ne kunu amaneɛ sɛ, “Hebrini akoa no a wokɔtɔɔ no brɛɛ yɛn no baa me nkyɛn sɛ anka ɔrebɛto me monnaa.
18 Naye nabadde nakaleekaana, n’aleka ekyambalo kye gye ndi, n’adduka n’ava mu nnyumba.”
Meteateaam no na ɔdwane firii efie ha, gyaa nʼatadeɛ hɔ.”
19 Awo mukama wa Yusufu bwe yawulira ebigambo omukazi bye yamutegeeza ng’agamba nti, “Bw’ati ne bw’ati omuddu wo bwe yampisizza,” obusungu bwa bba ne bubuubuuka.
Ɛberɛ a Yosef wura Potifar tee asɛm a ne yere ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Ɔkwan a wʼakoa no de me faa so nie” no, ne bo fuu yie.
20 Mukama wa Yusufu n’akwata Yusufu n’amuteeka mu kkomera omwasibirwanga abazzizza emisango eri kabaka.
Yosef wura Potifar tee asɛm no no, ɔkyeree Yosef kɔtoo afiase, faako a ɔhene nneduafoɔ guo no. Ɛberɛ a Yosef da afiase hɔ no,
21 Naye Mukama n’abeera ne Yusufu, n’amulaga okwagala kwe okutalojjeka. N’aganja nnyo mu maaso g’omukuumi w’ekkomera.
na Awurade ka ne ho. Awurade yɛɛ no adɔeɛ, maa ɛno enti, afiase sohwɛfoɔ panin no pɛɛ nʼasɛm yie.
22 Omukuumi w’ekkomera n’ateeka abasibe bonna mu mikono gya Yusufu, era buli ekyakolebwanga nga Yusufu y’akirinako obuvunaanyizibwa.
Ɛyɛɛ saa maa afiase sohwɛfoɔ panin no de Yosef sii nneduafoɔ no nyinaa so panin, a na biribiara a wɔyɛ wɔ afiase hɔ no hyɛ ne nsa.
23 Omukuumi w’ekkomera nga tafaayo ku buli ekyalinga mu mikono gya Yusufu, kubanga Mukama yali naye, era Mukama n’amuwa omukisa mu buli kye yakolanga.
Esiane sɛ na Awurade ka Yosef ho no enti, na afiase sohwɛfoɔ panin no nha ne ho nyɛ adwuma. Ɛfiri sɛ, biribiara a Yosef bɛyɛ no nso, Awurade hyira so ma ɛsi yie.
