1 Oluvannyuma Yusufu n’ategeezebwa nti, “Laba, kitaawo mulwadde.” Bw’atyo n’atwala batabani be Manase ne Efulayimu;
Le nya siawo megbe la, wova gblɔ na Yosef be fofoa ƒe lãmegbegblẽ la nu nɔ sesẽm ɖe edzi kokoko. Ale wòkplɔ Via ŋutsuvi eveawo, Manase kple Efraim, eye woyi ɖakpɔe ɖa.
2 Yakobo n’ategeezebwa nti, “Mutabani wo azze okukulaba.” Awo Yakobo ne yeekakaba ku kitanda kye n’atuula.
Eye wogblɔ na Yakob bena, “Kpɔ ɖa viwò Yosef va gbɔwò.” Tete Israel do ŋusẽ nu fɔ henɔ anyi ɖe abatia dzi be yeado gbe nɛ,
3 N’agamba Yusufu nti, “Katonda Ayinzabyonna yandabikira e Luzi mu nsi ya Kanani n’ampa omukisa.
eye wògblɔ na Yosef be, “Mawu Ŋusẽkatãtɔ ɖe eɖokui fiam le Luz, le Kanaanyigba dzi, eye wòyram.
4 N’aŋŋamba nti, ‘Laba, ndikwaza n’osukkirira ne nkufuula abantu abangi, era ensi eno ndigiwa ezzadde lyo okuba obutaka bwabwe ennaku zonna.’
Egblɔ nam be, ‘Mawɔ wò nàzu dukɔ gã, eye matsɔ Kanaanyigba sia ana wò kple wò dzidzimeviwo, wòanye mia tɔ tegbetegbe.’
5 “Kale kaakano batabani bo bombi abaakuzaalirwa mu Misiri nga sinnajja, bange; Efulayimu ne Manase baliba bange nga Lewubeeni ne Simyoni bwe bali.
Azɔ le viwò eve siawo, Efraim kple Manase, ame siwo wodzi le Egiptenyigba dzi hafi meva la, mele woawo ya xɔm abe nye ŋutɔ vinyewo ene, eye woanyi nye dome abe Ruben kple Simeon ke ene.
6 N’abo abaakuzaalirwa oluvannyuma lwabwe baliba babo, banaayitibwa amannya ga baganda baabwe mu mugabo gwabwe.
Ke viwò bubu ɖe sia ɖe ya la, anye wò ŋutɔ tɔ, eye woanyi Efraim kple Manase ƒe dome tso gbɔwò le wò ŋutɔ wò nuwo gome.
7 Kubanga bwe najja ng’ava e Paddani, ne ndaba ennaku Laakeeri n’anfiirako mu kkubo mu nsi ya Kanani, nga nkyagenda Efulasi; ne mmuziika eyo mu kkubo erigenda Efulasi, ye Besirekemu.”
Elabena dawò Rahel dzi vi eve ko, eye wòku esi metso Padan gbɔna Kanaan. Ke esi míegogo Efrat la, meɖii ɖe mɔ to le Efrat” (si nye Betlehem).
8 Isirayiri bwe yalaba batabani ba Yusufu n’abuuza nti, “Bano be baani?”
Israel lé ŋku ɖe Yosef ƒe ŋutsuviawo ŋu, eye wòbia be, “Ŋutsuviawoe nye esiawoa?”
9 Yusufu n’addamu kitaawe nti, “Be batabani bange, Katonda b’ampeeredde wano.” N’amugamba nti, “Nkusaba obansembereze mbasabire omukisa.”
Yosef ɖo eŋu be, “Ɛ̃, esiawoe nye ŋutsuvi siwo Mawu nam le afii le Egipte.” Israel gblɔ be, “Kplɔ wo te ɖe ŋunye ne mayra wo.”
10 Mu kiseera kino amaaso ga Isirayiri gaali gayimbadde olw’obukadde, nga takyasobola kulaba. Awo Yusufu n’abamusembereza, Yakobo n’abagwa mu kifuba n’abanywegera.
Israel ƒe tsitsi na eƒe ŋkuwo tsi afã kple afã, eye megatea ŋu kpɔa nu tututu o. Ale Yosef kplɔ viawo te ɖe eŋu kpokploe. Egbugbɔ nu na wo, eye wòkpla asi kɔ na wo.
11 Isirayiri n’agamba Yusufu nti, “Saasuubira kulaba maaso go; era laba Katonda ansobozesezza okulaba n’abaana bo.”
Israel gblɔ na Yosef be, “Nyemebu tsã be magakpɔ wò o, ke azɔ Mawu na mekpɔ viwòwo hã.”
12 Awo Yusufu n’abaggya ku maviivi ge n’avuunama wansi.
Tete Yosef ɖe wo ɖa le Israel ƒe atata, eye wòde ta agu, tsyɔ mo anyi.
13 Yusufu n’abatwala bombi, Efulayimu ng’ali mu mukono gwe ogwa ddyo, okwolekera ogwa Isirayiri ogwa kkono, ne Manase ng’ali mu mukono gwe ogwa kkono okwolekera ogwa Isirayiri ogwa ddyo, n’abamusembereza.
Eye Yosef tsɔ wo ame eveawo; Efraim yi ɖe ɖusime be wòanɔ Israel ƒe miame, eye Manase yi ɖe miame be wòanɔ Israel ƒe ɖusime, eye wòkplɔ wo te ɖe Israel ŋu.
14 Isirayiri n’agolola omukono gwe ogwa ddyo n’aguteeka ku mutwe gwa Efulayimu eyali omuto, n’omukono gwe ogwa kkono n’aguteeka ku mutwe gwa Manase, n’ayisiŋŋanya emikono gye, kubanga Manase ye yasooka okuzaalibwa.
Ke Israel tso ga eƒe abɔwo esime wòdi be yeada yeƒe asiwo ɖe ɖeviawo ƒe tawo dzi. Ale eƒe ɖusi nɔ Efraim, ame si nye ɖevitɔ, eye wònɔ eƒe miame la ƒe ta dzi, eye eƒe miasi nɔ Manase, ame si nye tsitsitɔ, eye wònɔ eƒe ɖusime la ƒe ta dzi.
15 N’awa Yusufu omukisa, n’agamba nti, “Katonda wa jjajjange Ibulayimu ne kitange Isaaka gwe baatambulira mu maaso ge, Katonda oyo ankulembedde obulamu bwange bwonna okutuusa leero,
Eyra Yosef kple nya siawo be, “Mawu, fofonye Abraham kple Isak ƒe Mawu, ame si kplɔm le nye agbenɔɣi katã me la nayra ŋutsuvi siawo nukutɔe.
16 Malayika oyo eyannunula okuva mu bizibu byonna, owe omukisa abalenzi bano. Erinnya lyange lyeyongerenga okutuumibwa mu bo era n’erya Ibulayimu n’erya Isaaka. Era bafuuke ekibiina ekinene mu maaso g’ensi.”
Mawudɔla si ɖem tso xaxa ɖe sia ɖe me la nayra ɖevi siawo, woade bubu nye ŋkɔ ŋu, eye woade bubu fofonye Abraham kple Isak ƒe ŋkɔwo ŋu. Mawu naɖi ne woazu dukɔ gã aɖe.”
17 Yusufu bwe yalaba nga kitaawe atadde omukono gwe ogwa ddyo ku Efulayimu n’atakyagala, n’akwata omukono gwa kitaawe okuguggya ku mutwe gwa Efulayimu aguzze ku mutwe gwa Manase.
Ke Yosef tɔtɔ, eye mekpɔ ŋudzedze le ale si fofoa da eƒe nuɖusi ɖe Efraim ƒe ta dzi la ŋu o. Ale wòɖe fofoa ƒe nuɖusi ɖa be yeadae ɖe Manase boŋ tɔ dzi.
18 N’agamba kitaawe nti, “Kireme kuba kityo, kitange, kubanga ono ye mubereberye, teeka omukono ogwa ddyo ku mutwe gwe.”
Egblɔ be, “Ao, fofonye, ètsɔ wò nuɖusi da ɖe ame si ƒe ta dzi mele be nàdae ɖo o la! Ame si le afi sia lae nye tsitsitɔ. Da wò nuɖusi ɖe eya boŋ dzi!”
19 Naye kitaawe n’agaana n’agamba nti, “Mmanyi, mwana wange, mmanyi nti alifuuka eggwanga era aliba mukulu; kyokka muto we aliba mukulu okumusinga era alivaamu amawanga mangi.”
Ke fofoa gbe hegblɔ nɛ be, “Vinye, menya nu si wɔm mele. Manase hã azu dukɔ gã aɖe, ke nɔvia suetɔ azu dukɔ gã wu.”
20 Awo n’abasabira omukisa ku lunaku olwo ng’agamba nti, “Abaana ba Isirayiri basabiragane omukisa nga bagamba nti, ‘Katonda akuyise nga Efulayimu ne Manase.’” Bw’atyo n’ateeka Efulayimu mu maaso ga Manase.
Ale Yakob yra ɖeviawo gbe ma gbe ale: “Israelviwo nayra wo nɔewo agblɔ be, ‘Mawu nana nuwo nadze edzi na wò abe Efraim kple Manase ene!’” Ale wòtsɔ Efraim ɖo tsitsi na Manase.
21 Ate Isirayiri n’agamba Yusufu nti, “Laba, nnaatera okufa, kyokka Katonda alibeera naawe era alikuzzaayo mu nsi ya bajjajjaabo.
Israel gblɔ na Yosef be, “Mele kuku ge kpuie, ke Mawu anɔ kpli wò, eye wòagakplɔ wò ayi Kanaan, fofowòwo ƒe anyigba dzi.
22 Wabula ggwe nkuwadde kinene okusinga baganda bo, nkuwadde ekitundu kimu ekikkirira olusozi, kye naggya ku Bamoli n’ekitala kyange n’omutego gwange.”
Metsɔ Sekemnyigba si metsɔ nye yi kple dati xɔ le Amoritɔwo si la na wò ɖe nɔviwòwo teƒe be wòanye wò gome.”
