Genesisy 45
1 Ary Josefa tsy nahatsindry ny fangorakoraky ny fony intsony teo anatrehan’ izay rehetra teo aminy; dia niantso izy ka nanao hoe: Avoahy ny olona rehetra hiala eto amiko. Ary dia tsy nisy olona na dia iray aza nijanona teo amin’ i Josefa, raha nanao izay hahafantaran’ ny rahalahiny azy izy.
Then Joseph could no longer control himself before all those who stood before him, so he cried out, "Send everyone away from me." So no one stood with him while Joseph made himself known to his brothers.
2 Dia nitomany mafy izy, ka ren’ ny Egyptiana, ary ren’ ny tao an-tranon’ i Farao koa.
And he wept so loudly that the Egyptians heard it, and the house of Pharaoh heard about it.
3 Ary hoy Josefa tamin’ ny rahalahiny: Izaho no Josefa; mbola velona ihany va ikaky? Ary tsy nahavaly azy ny rahalahiny; fa toran-kovitra teo anatrehany ireo.
Then Joseph said to his brothers, "I am Joseph. Is my father still alive?" But his brothers couldn't answer him, for they were terrified at his presence.
4 Ary hoy Josefa tamin’ ny rahalahiny: Avia, manatòna ahy ianareo. Dia nanatona ireo. Ary hoy Josefa: Izaho no Josefa rahalahinareo, ilay namidinareo ho atỳ Egypta.
Then Joseph said to his brothers, "Come near to me, please." So they moved closer. And he said, "I am Joseph, your brother, whom you sold into Egypt.
5 Ary ankehitriny, aza malahelo na tezitra amin’ ny tenanareo noho ny nivarotanareo ahy ho atỳ; fa hamonjy aina no nampandehanan’ Andriamanitra ahy hialoha anareo atỳ.
Now do not be upset or angry with yourselves that you sold me here, for God sent me before you to preserve life.
6 Fa roa taona izao no efa nisian’ ny mosary teto amin’ ny tany; ary mbola misy dimy taona koa, izay tsy hisy hiasan-tany na hijinjana.
For the famine has been in the land these two years, and there will be five more years in which there will be neither plowing nor harvest.
7 Ary Andriamanitra efa nampandeha ahy hialoha anareo, mba tsy hahalany taranaka anareo amin’ ny tany, fa hamelona anareo amin’ ny famonjena lehibe.
God sent me ahead of you to preserve for you a remnant on the earth, and to save your lives by a great deliverance.
8 Ary amin’ izany, tsy ianareo no nampandeha ahy ho atỳ, fa Andriamanitra; ary Izy nanao ahy ho rain’ i Farao, sy ho tompon’ ny ao an-tranony rehetra, ary ho mpanapaka ny tany Egypta rehetra.
So now, it wasn't you who sent me here, but God, and he has made me a father to Pharaoh, lord of all his house, and ruler over all the land of Egypt.
9 Andeha miakatra faingana ianareo ho any amin’ ikaky, ka lazao aminy hoe: Izao no tenin’ i Josefa zanakao: Efa nataon’ Andriamanitra ho tompon’ i Egypta rehetra aho; ka midìna hankatỳ amiko, fa aza mijanona;
Now hurry and go up to my father and tell him, 'This is what your son Joseph says, "God has made me lord of all Egypt. Come down to me. Do not delay.
10 dia honina eo amin’ ny tany Gosena ianao, ka ho eo akaikiko ianao sy ny zanakao sy ny zafinao ary ny ondry aman’ osinao sy ny ombinao mbamin’ izay rehetra anananao.
You shall dwell in the land of Goshen, and you will be near to me, you, your children, and your children's children, and your flocks, and your herds, and everything that you have.
11 Dia hamelona anao eo aho (fa mbola haharitra dimy taona ny mosary), fandrao ho lany harena ianao sy ny ankohonanao ary izay rehetra anananao.
There I will provide for you, for there are still five years of famine to come, otherwise you and your household and all that you have would become destitute.
12 Ary, indro, hitan’ ny masonareo sy ny mason’ i Benjamina rahalahiko izao fa ny vavako no miteny aminareo.
Look, your eyes see, and the eyes of my brother Benjamin, that it is my mouth which is speaking to you.
13 Dia hambaranareo amin’ ikaky ny voninahitro rehetra atỳ Egypta sy izay rehetra efa hitanareo; koa mandehana faingana ianareo, ka ento midìna atỳ ikaky.
So you must tell my father about all my glory in Egypt, and of all that you have seen. But you must hurry and bring my father down here."
14 Dia namihina ny vozon’ i Benjamina rahalahiny izy ka nitomany; ary Benjamina koa dia mba nitomany teo amin’ ny vozony.
Then he threw his arms around his brother Benjamin's neck and wept, and Benjamin wept on his shoulder.
15 Ary dia nanoroka ny rahalahiny rehetra izy ka nitomany teo am-pamihinany azy; ary rehefa afaka izany, dia niresaka taminy ireo rahalahiny.
And he kissed all his brothers and wept on them, and after that his brothers talked with him.
16 Ary re tao an-tranon’ i Farao ny teny hoe: Tonga ny rahalahin’ i Josefa; dia sitrak’ i Farao sy ny mpanompony izany.
Now the report of it was heard in Pharaoh's house, saying, "Joseph's brothers have come." It pleased Pharaoh and his servants.
17 Ary hoy Farao tamin’ i Josefa: Lazao amin’ ny rahalahinao: Izao no ataovy: ataingeno ny entana ho entin’ ny bibinareo, ka mankanesa any amin’ ny tany Kanana;
And Pharaoh said to Joseph, "Tell your brothers, 'Do this: Load your animals and go. Enter the land of Canaan.
18 ary alao ny rainareo sy ny ankohonanareo, ka mankanesa atỳ amiko; ary dia homeko anareo ny tsara eto amin’ ny tany Egypta, ka hihinana ny matavy eto amin’ ny tany ianareo.
Take your father and your families and come to me, and I will give you the best of the land of Egypt, and you will eat the richness of the land.'
19 Ary ankehitriny efa nomena teny ianao, ka izao no ataovy: makà sariety amin’ ny tany Egypta hitondranareo ny vady aman-janakareo, ary ento ny rainareo, ka mankanesa atỳ.
Now you are commanded, 'Do this: Take wagons from the land of Egypt for your little ones, and for your wives, and bring your father and come.
20 Aza malahelo ny amin’ ny fanakareo; fa anareo izay tsara eto amin’ ny tany Egypta rehetra.
Also, do not worry about your possessions, for the best of all of the land of Egypt is yours."
21 Ary nataon’ ny zanak’ Isiraely izany, ka dia nomen’ i Josefa sariety izy, araka ny tenin’ i Farao; ary nomeny vatsy koa ho entiny eny an-dalana izy.
So the sons of Israel did that. And Joseph gave them wagons, according to the commandment of Pharaoh, and gave them provisions for the journey.
22 Ary izy rehetra samy nomeny akanjo indray miova avy; fa Benjamina kosa nomeny sekely volafotsy telon-jato sy akanjo indimy miova.
He gave to all of them, to each one, a change of clothing. But to Benjamin he gave three hundred pieces of silver and five changes of clothing.
23 Ary izao kosa no nampitondrainy ho an-drainy: borikilahy folo nitondra zava-tsoa avy tany Egypta, sy borikivavy folo nitondra vary sy mofo, ary vatsy ho an’ ny rainy ho entiny eny an-dalana.
To his father he sent the following: ten donkeys loaded with the best things of Egypt, and ten female donkeys loaded with grain and food and provision for his father on the journey.
24 Dia nampandehaniny ny rahalahiny, ka lasa nandeha izy ireo; ary hoy Josefa taminy: Aza mifanditra eny an-dalana ianareo.
So he sent his brothers off, and as they departed he said to them, "Do not be fearful on the journey."
25 Dia niakatra avy tany Egypta izy ireo ka tonga tany amin’ i Jakoba rainy tany amin’ ny tany Kanana.
So they went up out of Egypt and came into the land of Canaan to their father Jacob.
26 Dia nilaza taminy izy ka nanao hoe: Mbola velona ihany Josefa, ary izy no mpanapaka ny tany Egypta rehetra, kanefa nangatsiaka ihany ny fon’ i Jakoba, fa tsy nino azy izy.
And they told him, saying, "Joseph is still alive, and he is ruler over all the land of Egypt." But he was unmoved, because he did not believe them.
27 Dia nolazain’ izy ireo ny teny rehetra izay efa nolazain’ i Josefa taminy: ary rehefa hitany ny sariety izay efa nampitondrain’ i Josefa hitondrana azy, dia izay vao velona indray ny fanahin’ i Jakoba rainy
But when they told him all the words of Joseph, which he had said to them, and when he saw the wagons which Joseph had sent to transport him, the spirit of their father Jacob revived.
28 Ary hoy Isiraely: Aoka ary, fa mbola velona ihany Josefa zanako; handeha aho ka hahita azy, dieny tsy mbola maty aho.
Then Israel said, "I'm convinced. My son Joseph is still alive. I will go and see him before I die."
