Olubereberye 42
1 Yakobo bwe yategeera nga mu Misiri eriyo emmere, n’agamba batabani be nti, “Lwaki mutunula butunuzi?
Pea kuo mamata ʻe Sēkope ʻoku ai ʻae koane ʻi ʻIsipite, pea pehē ʻe Sēkope ki hono ngaahi foha, “Ko e hā ʻoku mou fesiofaki ai?
2 Mpulidde nti mu Misiri eriyo emmere, muserengete mutugulireyo emmere, tube balamu, tuleme okufa.”
Pea pehē ʻe ia, Vakai, kuo u fanongo ʻoku ai ʻae koane ʻi ʻIsipite: mou ʻalu ki ai, pea mou fakatau maʻatautolu mei ai; koeʻuhi ke tau moʻui, kae ʻikai mate.”
3 Awo baganda ba Yusufu ekkumi ne baserengeta e Misiri okugula emmere.
Pea naʻe ʻalu ki ʻIsipite ke fakatau koane, ʻae ngaahi taʻokete ʻe toko hongofulu ʻo Siosefa.
4 Kyokka Yakobo n’atasindika Benyamini, muto wa Yusufu wamu ne baganda be kubanga yatya nti akabi kayinza okumutuukako.
Ka ko Penisimani ko e tehina ʻo Siosefa, naʻe ʻikai tuku ia ʻe Sēkope ke ʻalu mo hono ngaahi taʻokete; he naʻa ne pehē; Telia naʻa tō ha kovi kiate ia.
5 Bwe batyo batabani ba Isirayiri ne bajja mu Misiri wamu n’abalala abajja okugula emmere, kubanga ensi ya Kanani yali ejjudde enjala.
Pea haʻu ʻae ngaahi foha ʻo ʻIsileli ke fakatau ʻae koane mo kinautolu naʻe haʻu; he naʻe lahi ʻae honge ʻi he fonua ko Kēnani.
6 Mu kiseera ekyo Yusufu ye yali afuga Misiri; nga y’aguza abantu emmere. Awo baganda be ne bajja ne bamuvuunamira.
Pea naʻe pule pe ʻa Siosefa ʻi he fonua, pea ko ia pe naʻe fakatau ki he kakai kotoa pē ʻoe fonua; pea haʻu ʻae ngaahi taʻokete ʻo Siosefa, ʻo nau tulolo mo honau mata ki he kelekele, ʻi hono ʻao.
7 Yusufu n’abalaba n’abategeera, wabula n’abayisa nga b’atamanyi n’ayogera nabo n’obukambwe. N’ababuuza nti, “Muva wa?” Ne bamuddamu nti, “Tuva mu nsi ya Kanani, tuzze kugula mmere.”
Pea mamata ʻa Siosefa ki hono ngaahi taʻokete, ʻo ne ʻilo ʻakinautolu, ka naʻe mata kehe ia kiate kinautolu, ʻo ne lea mālohi kiate kinautolu: pea ne pehē kiate kinautolu, “ʻOku mou haʻu mei fē?” Pea nau talaange, “Mei he fonua ko Kēnani, ke fakatau meʻakai.”
8 Bw’atyo Yusufu n’ategeera baganda be kyokka bo ne batamutegeera.
Pea naʻe ʻilo ʻe Siosefa hono ngaahi taʻokete, ka naʻe ʻikai te nau ʻilo ia.
9 Awo Yusufu n’ajjukira ebirooto bye ku bo. N’abagamba nti, “Muli bakessi; muzze kuketta nsi yaffe mulabe bw’eri ennafu.”
Pea naʻe manatu ʻe Siosefa ki he ngaahi misi naʻa ne misi ʻaki kiate kinautolu, pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “Ko e kau mataki ʻakinautolu; kuo mou haʻu ke mamata ki he telefua ʻoe fonua.”
10 Ne bamuddamu nti, “Nedda mukama waffe; abaddu bo tuzze kugula mmere.
Pea nau talaange kiate ia, “ʻEiki ʻoku ʻikai, ka kuo haʻu ʻa hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki ke fakatau meʻakai.
11 Ffenna tuli batabani ba musajja omu, tuli basajja ba mazima. Abaddu bo tetuli bakessi.”
Ko e ngaahi foha ʻoe tangata pe taha ʻakimautolu kotoa pē: ko e kau tangata moʻoni ʻakimautolu, ʻoku ʻikai ko e kakai mataki ʻa hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki.”
12 Ye n’abaddamu nti, “Nedda muzze kulaba obunafu bw’ensi yaffe bwe buli.”
Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “ʻIkai, ka kuo mou haʻu ke mamata ki he telefua ʻoe fonua.”
13 Ne bamuddamu nti, “Abaddu bo tuli kkumi na babiri, tuli baana ba muntu omu mu nsi ya Kanani, laba muto waffe n’olwa leero ali ne kitaffe, n’omulala yafa.”
Pea naʻa nau pehē, “Ko hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki, ko e kāinga ʻe toko hongofulu ma toko ua, ko e ngaahi foha ʻoe tangata pe taha ʻi he fonua ko Kēnani; pea vakai, ko e kimui, ʻoku ʻi he ʻemau tamai he ʻaho ni, pea ko e tokotaha kuo ʻikai.”
14 Naye Yusufu n’alumiriza nti, “Kiri nga bwe mbagambye, muli bakessi.
Pea pehē ʻe Siosefa kiate kinautolu, “Ko ia ia naʻaku lea ai kiate kimoutolu, ʻo pehē, ko e kau mataki ʻakinautolu.
15 Nzija kubategeerera ku kino, ndayidde obulamu bwa Falaawo temujja kuva wano, okuggyako nga muto wammwe aleeteddwa wano.
E ʻahiʻahi kiate kimoutolu ʻaki ʻae meʻa ni; hangē ʻoku moʻui ʻa Felo, ʻe ʻikai te mou ʻalu ʻi heni, ʻo kapau ʻe ʻikai haʻu ki heni homou tehina.
16 Mutume omu ku mmwe, aleete muganda wammwe, mwe mubeere mu kkomera, ebigambo byammwe byetegerezebwe obanga ddala bye mwogedde bya mazima. Oba si ekyo ndayidde obulamu bwa Falaawo, muli bakessi.”
Fekau homou tokotaha ke ne ʻalu ʻo ʻomi homou tehina, pea ʻe nofo pōpula ʻakinautolu, koeʻuhi ke fakamoʻoni ki hoʻomou ngaahi lea, pe ʻoku ai ha moʻoni ʻiate kimoutolu; ka ka ʻikai, hangē ʻoku moʻui ʻa Felo, ko e kau mataki ʻakinautolu.”
17 Awo n’abateeka bonna mu kkomera okumala ennaku ssatu.
Pea naʻa ne tuku fakataha ʻakinautolu ki he fale fakapōpula, ʻi he ʻaho ʻe tolu.
18 Ku lunaku olwokusatu Yusufu n’abagamba nti, “Mukole bwe muti okuwonya obulamu bwammwe, kubanga ntya Katonda;
Pea pehē ʻe Siosefa kiate kinautolu ʻi hono ʻaho tolu, “Mou fai eni, pea mou moʻui he ʻoku ou manavahē ki he ʻOtua;
19 obanga ddala muli basajja b’amazima, omu ku baganda bammwe asigale ng’asibiddwa mu kkomera, abalala mugende mutwalire abantu bammwe emmere,
Kapau ko e kau tangata angatonu ʻakinautolu, tuku ke haʻi homou tokotaha ʻi he fale ʻo homou pōpula: ka mou ʻalu ʻo fetuku ʻae koane telia ʻae honge ʻi homou ngaahi fale.
20 mundeetere muto wammwe, olwo ebigambo byammwe bikakasibwe muleme okufa.” Awo ne bakola bwe batyo.
Ka mou ʻomi homou tehina kiate au; ko ia ʻe fakamoʻoni ai hoʻomou ngaahi lea, pea ʻe ʻikai te mou mate. Pea naʻa nau fai ia.”
21 Awo ne bagambagana nti, “Ddala tuliko omusango gwa muganda waffe, kubanga twalaba nga mweraliikirivu, bwe yatwegayirira ne tutamuwuliriza; akabi kano kyekavudde katutuukako.”
Pea naʻa nau fealēleaʻaki ʻo pehē, “Ko e moʻoni, ʻoku tau kovi ko e meʻa ʻi hotau tehina, ko e meʻa ʻi heʻetau mamata ki he feinga ʻa hono laumālie, ʻi heʻene fakakole kiate kitautolu, ka naʻe ʻikai te tau fie tokanga kiate ia; ko ia kuo tō ai ʻae mamahi ni kiate kitautolu.”
22 Lewubeeni kwe kubaddamu nti, “Nnabagamba muleme kukola kabi ku mulenzi, nga mmwe temumpuliriza; kale omusaayi gwe kyeguva gutuwalanwako.”
Pea lea ʻa Lupeni kiate kinautolu, ʻo pehē, “ʻIkai ne u lea kiate kimoutolu, ʻo pehē, ʻoua naʻa mou fai hala ki he tamasiʻi, ka naʻe ʻikai te mou tokanga? Ko ia, vakai, ʻoku ʻeke foki ʻae totongi ʻo hono toto.”
23 Ne batamanya nti Yusufu ategedde bye boogedde, kubanga bayogeranga naye nga bayita mu mutaputa.
Pea naʻe ʻikai te nau ʻilo ʻoku ʻilo ʻe Siosefa ʻenau lea; he naʻe lea ia kiate kinautolu ʻaki ʻae tangata hiki lea.
24 Awo Yusufu n’atunula ebbali n’akaaba, ate n’akyuka gye bali n’ayogera nabo. Awo n’atwala Simyoni n’amusiba nga balaba.
Pea naʻe foki atu ia ʻiate kinautolu ʻo tangi; pea toe haʻu ia kiate kinautolu, ke nau alea, pea naʻa ne toʻo ʻa Simione ʻiate kinautolu, ʻo haʻi ia ʻi honau ʻao.
25 N’alagira bajjuze ensawo zaabwe eŋŋaano, era bazze ensimbi za buli omu mu nsawo ye, baweebwe n’entanda; ne bibakolerwa.
Pea naʻe fekau ʻa Siosefa ke fakafonu ʻenau ngaahi tangai ʻi he koane, pea ke toe ai ki he tangai ʻae tangata taki taha, ʻene paʻanga, pea ke tuku kiate kinautolu ʻae ʻoho ke kai ʻi he hala; pea naʻe fai pehē ia kiate kinautolu.
26 Awo ne batikka endogoyi zaabwe eŋŋaano ne bagenda.
Pea naʻa nau fakaheka ʻae koane ki heʻenau fanga asi, pea nau ʻalu.
27 Naye omu ku bo bwe yasumulula ensawo ye okuliisa endogoyi ye nga bali mu kifo mwe baasula, n’alaba ensimbi ze ku mumwa gw’ensawo;
Pea ʻi he toʻo ʻe honau tokotaha ʻene tangai ke ʻatu ʻae meʻakai ki heʻene ʻasi ʻi he fale talifononga, naʻe ʻilo ʻe ia ʻene ngaahi paʻanga; he vakai naʻe ʻi he ngutu ʻoe tangai ia.
28 n’agamba baganda be nti, “Ensimbi zange baazinzirizza, ziizino mu kamwa k’ensawo yange!” Ekyo ne kibeeralikiriza, buli omu n’atandika okutya, nga bwe bagamba nti, “Kiki kino Katonda ky’atukoze!”
Pea pehē ʻe ia ki hono ngaahi tokoua, “Kuo toe ʻomi ʻeku ngaahi paʻanga; he vakai, ʻoku ʻi he ngutu ʻo ʻeku tangai;” pea naʻe vaivai ai honau loto, pea nau manavahē, ʻo fepehēʻaki, “Ko e hā eni kuo fai ʻe he ʻOtua kiate kitautolu?”
29 Bwe baakomawo mu nsi ya Kanani eri Yakobo kitaabwe ne bamutegeeza byonna ebyababaako, nga bagamba nti,
Pea naʻa nau haʻu kia Sēkope ko e nau tamai ki he fonua ko Kēnani, ʻo nau fakahā kiate ia ʻae meʻa kotoa pē naʻe hoko kiate kinautolu; ʻo pehē,
30 “Omusajja omufuzi w’ensi y’e Misiri yayogera naffe n’obukambwe era n’atuyisa nga abaali bagenze okuketta ensi ye.
“Ko e tangata ʻoku ʻeiki ʻi he fonua, naʻe lea mālohi kiate kimautolu, ʻo pehē, Ko e kau mataki ʻakinautolu ki he fonua.
31 Naye ne tumugamba nti, Tuli basajja b’amazima, tetuli bakessi,
Pea mau tala kiate ia, ko e kau tangata moʻoni ʻakimautolu; ʻoku ʻikai ko e kau mataki ʻakimautolu.
32 tuli abooluganda kumi na babiri, baana ba muntu omu, munnaffe yafa, ne muto waffe olwa leero ali ne kitaffe mu nsi ya Kanani.
Ko e kāinga ʻe toko hongofulu ma toko ua ʻakimautolu, ko e ngaahi foha ʻoe mau tamai, ko e tokotaha ʻoku ʻikai, pea ko e kimui ʻoku ʻi he ʻemau tamai he ʻaho ni, ʻi he fonua ko Kēnani.”
33 “Awo omusajja oyo omufuzi w’ensi n’atugamba nti, ‘Ku kino kwennaategeerera nga muli beesigwa: muleke wano omu ku baganda bammwe, mutwale eŋŋaano olw’enjala eri mu maka gammwe.
Pea ko e tangata, ko e ʻeiki ʻoe fonua, naʻe pehē kiate kimautolu, “Te u ʻilo ʻi he meʻa ni, pe ko e kau tangata moʻoni ʻakinautolu; tuku mai homou tokoua ʻe tokotaha kiate au, pea mou ʻave ʻae meʻakai ki he honge ʻo homau ngaahi fale, pea mou ʻalu;
34 Mundeetere muto wammwe, kwe nnaategeerera nga temuli bakessi, muli basajja b’amazima, olwo ne ndyoka mbawa muganda wammwe, mulyoke mugule emmere mu nsi eno.’”
Pea mou ʻomi ki heni, homou tehina: ko ia te u ʻilo ai, ʻoku ʻikai ko e kau mataki ʻakinautolu, ka ko e kau tangata moʻoni: pea te u toe tuku ai kiate kimoutolu homou tokoua, pea te mou fakatau ʻi he fonua ni.”
35 Bwe baatuuka eka, buli eyafukumulanga ensawo ye, laba ng’omuvumbo gw’ensimbi ze mweziri. Awo bo ne kitaabwe bwe baalaba emivumbo gy’ensimbi ne batya.
Pea ʻi heʻenau lingi ʻenau ngaahi tangai, pea nau vakai, naʻe ʻilo taki taha ʻae tangata ʻene kato paʻanga ʻi he ngutu ʻo ʻene tangai: pea kuo mamata ʻakinautolu mo e nau tamai ki he ngaahi kato paʻanga, naʻa nau manavahē.
36 Yakobo kitaabwe n’abagamba nti, “Munzigyeko abaana bange: Yusufu taliiwo, ne Simyoni taliiwo ne kaakano mwagala muntwaleko Benyamini!”
Pea pehē ʻe Sēkope ko e nau tamai kiate kinautolu, “Kuo mou fakamasiva au ʻi heʻeku fānau; kuo ʻikai ʻa Siosefa, pea kuo ʻikai mo Simione, pea te mou toe ʻave mo Penisimani; ʻoku kovi ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni kotoa pē kiate au.”
37 Awo Lewubeeni n’agamba kitaawe nti, “Ottanga batabani bange bombi, bwe sirikomyawo Benyamini gy’oli; mumpe, nange ndimukomyawo gy’oli.”
Pea lea ʻa Lupeni ki heʻene tamai, ʻo pehē, “Tāmateʻi hoku foha ʻe toko ua, ʻo kapau ʻe ʻikai te u toe ʻomi ia kiate koe; tuku mai ia ki hoku nima, pea te u toe ʻomi ia kiate koe.”
38 Naye Yakobo n’agamba nti, “Mutabani wange tajja kuserengeta nammwe, kubanga muganda we yafa, era ye y’asigalawo yekka. Akabi bwe kalimutuukako mu lugendo lwe mugendako, muliserengesa envi zange emagombe nga nkyali munakuwavu.” (Sheol h7585)
Pea pehē ʻe ia, “E ʻikai ʻalu hifo hoku foha mo kimoutolu, he kuo mate hono tokoua, pea ʻoku toe tokotaha pe ia; pea kapau ʻe hoko ha kovi kiate ia ʻi he hala ʻoku mou ʻalu ai, te mou ʻomi hoku ʻuluhinā ki he faʻitoka ʻi he mamahi.” (Sheol h7585)
