Olubereberye 47

1 Awo Yusufu n’agenda eri Falaawo n’amugamba nti, “Kitange ne baganda bange n’amagana gaabwe n’ebisibo byabwe ne byonna bye balina bazze nga bava mu Kanani; kaakano bali Goseni.”

Yakob mma no bɛduruu Misraim asase so no, Yosef kɔka kyerɛɛ Farao sɛ, “Mʼagya ne me nuanom no de wɔn nnwan ne wɔn anantwie ne wɔn agyapadeɛ nyinaa firi Kanaan asase so aba, na wɔwɔ Gosen asase so”.

2 Yalondako bataano ku baganda be, n’agenda nabo ewa Falaawo.

Yosef yii ne nuammarima no mu baanum de wɔn kɔkyeaa Farao.

3 Falaawo n’ababuuza nti, “Omulimu gwammwe mulimu ki?” Ne bamuddamu nti, “Abaweereza bo tuli balunzi nga bajjajjaffe.

Farao bisaa anuanom no sɛ, “Adwuma bɛn na moyɛ?” Wɔbuaa no sɛ, “Wo nkoa yɛ nnwanhwɛfoɔ, sɛdeɛ na yɛn agyanom nso yɛ nnwanhwɛfoɔ no.”

4 Tuzze muno kunoonyeza bisibo byaffe muddo, kubanga abaddu bo tuva mu njala mpitirivu eri mu Kanani; ne kaakano abaddu bo tukusaba tubeere e Goseni.”

Anuanom no toaa so sɛ, “Yɛaba ha sɛ amamfrafoɔ a yɛrebɛtena ha kakra, ɛfiri sɛ, ɛkɔm no ano yɛ den yie wɔ Kanaan asase so hɔ, na wo nkoa nnwan nnya aduane nni. Enti, yɛresrɛ wo kwan na yɛatena Gosen asase so ha.”

5 Awo Falaawo n’agamba Yusufu nti, “Kitaawo ne baganda bo bazze gy’oli.

Farao ka kyerɛɛ Yosef sɛ, “Wʼagya ne wo nuanom aba wo nkyɛn.

6 Ensi y’e Misiri gw’ogirinako obuyinza, teeka kitaawo ne baganda bo awasinga obulungi; bateeke e Goseni. Era obanga omanyi asobola mu bo muwe akuume ente zange.”

Misraim asase nyinaa hyɛ wo nsa. Ma wʼagya ne wo nuammarima baabi pa na wɔntena. Ma wɔntena Gosen asase so. Sɛ wonim wɔn mu bi a wɔwɔ mmoayɛn ho nimdeɛ a, ma wɔnhwɛ me nnwan so mma me.”

7 Awo Yusufu n’ayingiza Yakobo, kitaawe n’amwanjula eri Falaawo. Yakobo n’asabira Falaawo omukisa.

Afei, Yosef kɔfaa nʼagya Yakob de no bɛkyiaa Farao maa Yakob hyiraa no.

8 Falaawo n’abuuza Yakobo nti, “Olina emyaka emeka?”

Farao bisaa Yakob sɛ, “Woadi mfeɛ ahe?”

9 Yakobo n’addamu nti, “Emyaka egy’olugendo lwange mu nsi giri kikumi mu amakumi asatu; emyaka gyange gibadde mitono era mizibu; siwangadde nga bajjajjange.”

Yakob buaa Farao sɛ, “Madi mfeɛ ɔha ne aduasa a ɔhaw ne abɛbrɛsɛ wɔ mu. Mennuru mʼagyanom nkwanna a wɔde tenaa asase so no ho hwee.”

10 Olwo Yakobo n’asabira Falaawo omukisa n’ava mu maaso ga Falaawo.

Na Yakob hyiraa Farao, na ɔfirii nʼanim kɔeɛ.

11 Awo Yusufu n’asenza kitaawe ne baganda be e Misiri, n’abawa ekitundu ekyali kisinga obulungi eky’e Goseni, mu Disitulikiti ey’e Lamusesi nga Falaawo bwe yalagira.

Enti, Yosef bɔɔ nʼagya ne ne nuanom no atenaseɛ wɔ Misraim asase so. Ɔmaa wɔn agyapadeɛ wɔ asase no fa baabi a ɛyɛ pa ara wɔ Rameses mansini mu, sɛdeɛ Farao hyɛeɛ no.

12 Yusufu n’awa kitaawe ne baganda be n’ab’ennyumba ya kitaawe emmere ng’omuwendo gw’abaana baabwe bwe gwali.

Yosef maa nʼagya ne ne nuanom no aduane sɛdeɛ wɔn mma dodoɔ te.

13 Awo emmere n’eggwa mu kitundu ekyo kyonna kubanga enjala yayitirira obungi, ne kireetera ensi y’e Misiri ne Kanani okukosebwa ennyo.

Na aduane nni hɔ baabiara, ɛfiri sɛ, na ɛkɔm a aba no ano ayɛ den yie. Saa ɛkɔm yi kaa Misraim ne Kanaan asase nyinaa maa emu nnipa ne mfudeɛ twintwameeɛ.

14 Yusufu n’akuŋŋaanya ensimbi zonna ezaali mu Misiri ne mu Kanani ng’abaguza emmere; n’azireeta mu lubiri lwa Falaawo.

Yosef prapraa Misraim ne Kanaan asase so sika nyinaa a ɔnya firii aduanetɔn no mu no baa Farao ahemfie.

15 Awo ensimbi bwe zaggwa ku bantu b’e Misiri ne Kanani ne bajja eri Yusufu ne bamugamba nti, “Tuwe emmere. Ensimbi zituweddeko. Lwaki tufa?”

Ɛberɛ a nnipa a wɔwɔ Misraim ne Kanaan asase so ho sika nyinaa saeɛ no, Misraim nnipa nyinaa baa Yosef nkyɛn bɛka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Yɛn ho sika nyinaa asa, enti ma yɛn aduane nni! Adɛn enti na ɛsɛ sɛ yɛwuwu?”

16 Yusufu n’abagamba nti, “Kale obanga ensimbi zibaweddeko mundeetere ensolo zammwe mbaguze emmere.”

Yosef buaa wɔn sɛ, “Sɛ mo sika asa deɛ a, momfa mo nnwan ne mo anantwie mmra mmɛgye aduane.”

17 Awo ne bamuleetera amagana g’ensolo zaabwe, omwali embalaasi, n’endiga, n’ente, n’endogoyi, okubiwaanyisaamu emmere; emmere eyo n’ebayisa mu mwaka ogwo.

Enti, wɔde wɔn mmoa no brɛɛ Yosef. Mmoa a wɔde wɔn bɛsesaa aduane no yɛ apɔnkɔ, nnwan, mpɔnkye, anantwie ne mfunumu. Saa afe no mu no, wɔde wɔn mmoa nyinaa bɛsesaa aduane.

18 Omwaka ogwo bwe gwaggwaako, ne bajja eri Yusufu mu mwaka ogwaddirira ne bamugamba nti, “Tetuukukise mukama waffe, ensimbi zituweddeko n’ensolo zaffe zifuuse zizo tewali kye tusigazza, wabula emibiri gyaffe gino n’ebyalo byaffe.

Afe akyiri no, Misraimfoɔ no nyinaa baa Yosef nkyɛn bɛkaa sɛ, “Yɛrentumi mfa biribiara nhinta yɛn wura. Yɛn ho sika nyinaa asa, na yɛn anantwie nso yɛ wo dea. Biribiara bio nni hɔ a yɛbɛtumi de abrɛ wo, yɛn wura, sɛ yɛn nnipadua ne yɛn nsase nko.

19 Tufiira ki nga w’oli? Tugule ffe n’ebyalo byaffe otuwe emmere tuleme okufa, naffe tuliba baddu ba Falaawo, ensi yaffe ereme okuzikirira.”

Adɛn enti na ɛsɛ sɛ yɛhwere yɛn nkwa ne yɛn nsase wɔ wʼanim! Afei, ma yɛmfa yɛn nnipadua ne yɛn nsase nyinaa mmɛsesa aduane. Yɛde yɛn ho ne yɛn nsase nyinaa bɛkɔ nkoasom mu. Ma yɛn aburoo, na ɛkɔm ankum yɛn, amma asase no nso anna mpan.”

20 Bw’atyo Yusufu n’agulira Falaawo ensi yonna ey’e Misiri. Abamisiri kinoomu, bonna ne batunda ebyalo byabwe kubanga enjala yali mpitirivu, ensi yonna n’efuuka ya Falaawo.

Enti, Yosef tɔɔ Misraim nsase nyinaa maa Farao. Esiane ɛkɔm no ano den enti, Misraimfoɔ no tɔn wɔn nsase no nyinaa. Ɛyɛɛ saa maa nsase no nyinaa bɛdii Farao nsam.

21 Bwe batyo n’abantu baamu okuva ku njuyi zonna ne bafuuka baddu ba Falaawo.

Ɛfiri Misraim tire kɔsi tire, Yosef de mu nnipa nyinaa bɛyɛɛ ne nkoa.

22 Ekitundu kya bakabona kye kyokka ky’ataagula, kubanga bo baasasulwanga Falaawo. Kye yabasasulanga kwe beeguliranga ebyokulya; bo kyebaava batatunda ttaka lyabwe.

Asɔfoɔ nko ara nsase na wantɔ, ɛfiri sɛ, asɔfoɔ no deɛ, na Farao atwa anoduane bi de ama wɔn. Ne saa enti na wɔn deɛ, wɔantɔn wɔn nsase no.

23 Awo Yusufu n’agamba abantu nti, “Mulabe, olwa leero mbaguze mmwe n’ebyalo byammwe; mbagulidde Falaawo. Kale kaakano ensigo zino zammwe munaazisiga.

Yosef ka kyerɛɛ nnipa no sɛ, “Afei a matɔ mo ne nsase de ama Farao yi, mo nso, monnye aburoo nkɔdua.

24 Bwe mulikungula, muliwa Falaawo ekitundu kimu kyakutaano, ebitundu bina bya kutaano biriba byammwe, okuba ensigo mu nnimiro zammwe, n’emmere ku lwammwe n’ab’ennyumba zammwe n’abaana bammwe.”

Na sɛ aburoo no yɛ yie, na motwa a, momfa nkyɛmu enum mu baako mmrɛ Farao. Na nkyɛmu enum mu ɛnan a ɛbɛka no, mo ne mo fiefoɔ ne mo mma nni bi, na monnya bi nso a mobɛdua.”

25 Ne bamuddamu nti, “Otuwonyezza okufa; mukama waffe bw’anaasiima tuliba baddu ba Falaawo.”

Wɔkaa sɛ, “Anokwa, woagye yɛn nkwa. Ka kyerɛ yɛn wura Farao sɛ, ɔnnye yɛn ntom, na yɛnyɛ nkoa.”

26 Awo Yusufu n’ateeka etteeka erikwata ku ttaka mu nsi y’e Misiri; weeliri n’okutuusa kaakano, nti ekitundu kimu kyakutaano kiba musolo gwa Falaawo; ettaka ly’abakabona lyokka lye litaafuuka lya Falaawo.

Ɛnam saa asɛm yi so maa mmara a Yosef hyɛeɛ sɛ, wɔmfa asase no so nnɔbaeɛ nyinaa mu nkyɛmu enum mu baako mma Farao no da so wɔ hɔ bɛsi ɛnnɛ. Asɔfoɔ no nsase nko ara na ankɔdi Farao nsam.

27 Bw’atyo Isirayiri n’abantu be ne babeera mu nsi y’e Misiri, mu Goseni, ne bagaggawalira mu kitundu ekyo. Baazaala ne baala nnyo.

Israelfoɔ no bɔɔ atenaseɛ wɔ Gosen mansini a ɛwɔ Misraim asase so no so. Wɔnyaa agyapadeɛ wɔ hɔ, na wɔn ase nso dɔree yie.

28 Yakobo n’amala mu Misiri emyaka kkumi na musanvu. Bw’atyo Yakobo n’awangaala emyaka kikumi mu ana mu musanvu.

Yakob tenaa Misraim mfeɛ dunson. Ɔdii mfirinhyia ɔha ne aduanan nson ansa na ɔrewu.

29 Ekiseera eky’okufa kwa Isirayiri bwe kyali kisembedde, n’ayita mutabani we Yusufu n’amugamba nti, “Obanga nfunye ekisa mu maaso go teeka omukono gwo wansi w’ekisambi kyange, ondayirire ng’onompulira n’otonkuusakuusa: tonziikanga mu Misiri,

Ɛduruu sɛ Yakob rebɛwuo no, ɔfrɛɛ ne ba Yosef, ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Me ba, sɛ wodɔ me deɛ a, ka ntam di nse sɛ, wobɛyɛ me adɔeɛ, adi me nokorɛ. Sɛ mewu a, nsie me wɔ Misraim ha.

30 onteekanga wamu ne bajjajjange. Olintwala n’onziika ku butaka.” Yusufu n’amuddamu nti, “Ndikola nga bw’ogambye.”

Sɛ mewu a, momfa me mfiri Misraim ha, nkɔsie me wɔ baabi a wɔsiee me mpanimfoɔ no.” Yosef hyɛɛ bɔ sɛ, “Mɛdi asɛm a woaka no so.”

31 N’amugamba nti, “Ndayirira.” N’amulayirira. Awo Isirayiri n’akoteka omutwe gwe ng’atudde emitwetwe w’ekitanda kye.

Yakob kaa bio sɛ, “Ka ntam kyerɛ me.” Yosef kaa ntam no, na Israel nso butuu ne poma so sɔree Onyankopɔn.
