Genesisy 47
1 Aa le nimb’amy Parò ao t’Iosefe le nanoa’e ty hoe: Fa totsak’ atoy boak’an-tane’ Kanàne añe ty raeko naho o rahalahikoo, rekets’ o mpirai-lia’eo naho o mpirai-tro’eo vaho o fanaña’ iareo iabio; oniño t’ie fa mitoetse an-tane Gosena añe.
Then Joseph went in and told Pharaoh, “My father and my brothers, their flocks, their herds, and all that they own, have arrived from the land of Canaan. See, they are in the land of Goshen.”
2 Nendese’e t’indaty lime amo rahalahi’eo vaho nampiatrefe’e amy Parò.
He took five of his brothers and introduced them to Pharaoh.
3 Hoe t’i Parò amy rahalahi’e rey, Ino ty fitoloña’ areo? Le hoe iereo amy Parò, Mpiarak’ añondry o mpitoro’oo, zahay naho o roae’aio.
Pharaoh said to his brothers, “What is your occupation?” They said to Pharaoh, “Your servants are shepherds, as our ancestors.”
4 Hoe iereo amy Parò, Pok’etoan-jahay hañialo an-tane atoy; amy te tsy aman-tane hiandraza’e o mpirai-liam-pitoro’oo ami’ty hamafe’ i hasalikoañe an-tane Kanàney. Aa ehe, angao hitoetse an-tane Gosena añe o mpitoro’oo.
Then they said to Pharaoh, “We come as temporary residents in the land. There is no pasture for your servants' flocks, because the famine is severe in the land of Canaan. So now, please let your servants live in the land of Goshen.”
5 Le hoe t’i Parò am’ Iosefe, Fa totsak’ ama’o ty rae’o naho o rahalahi’oo.
Then Pharaoh spoke to Joseph, saying, “Your father and your brothers have come to you.
6 Añatrefa’o ty tane Mitsraime, ampañialo an-tane kobokara iereo; angao hitoetse an-tane Gosena añe; aa naho rendre’o ze mahatafetetse am’iereo, le ampamandroñeñe iareo o harekoo.
The land of Egypt is before you. Settle your father and your brothers in the best region, the land of Goshen. If you know any capable men among them, put them in charge of my livestock.”
7 Nampihovae’ Iosefe amy zao ty rae’e vaho nampiatrefe’e amy Parò, le nitata i Parò t’Iakòbe.
Then Joseph brought in Jacob his father and presented him to Pharaoh. Jacob blessed Pharaoh.
8 Hoe t’i Parò am’ Iakòbe, Fire ty taoñe niveloma’o?
Pharaoh said to Jacob, “How long have you lived?”
9 Hoe t’Iakòbe amy Parò, Zato-tsi-telo-polo ty andro’ o taoñe nañialoako an-tane atoy; tsy ampeampe vaho nampifeak’ ahy ty andro’ o taoñe nivelomakoo fa tsy nahatàkatse ty andro’ o taon-droaeko amo andro nañialoa’ iareoo.
Jacob said to Pharaoh, “The years of my travels are a hundred and thirty. The years of my life have been few and painful. They have not been as long as those of my ancestors.”
10 Tinata’ Iakòbe t’i Parò vaho nienga boak’ añatrefa’ i Parò.
Then Jacob blessed Pharaoh and went out from his presence.
11 Aa le nampimoneña’ Iosefe t’i rae’e naho o rahalahi’eo vaho tinolo’e fanañañe an-tane Mitsraime ao, ty tane hoba amy taney, an-tane Ramsese ao ty amy saontsi’ i Paròy.
Then Joseph settled his father and his brothers. He gave them a territory in the land of Egypt, the best of the land, in the land of Rameses, as Pharaoh had commanded.
12 Le nifahana’ Iosefe ty rae’e naho o rahalahi’eo, naho ty añ’anjomban-drae’e iaby ami’ty mahakama ho am-bava’ o keleia’eo.
Joseph provided food for his father, his brothers, and all his father's household, according the number of their dependents.
13 Ie amy zay tsy ama’ mahakama i tane iabiy, amy te nimafe i san-kerey. Nikantañe ty an-tane Mitsraime ao naho an tane’ Kanàne añe ty amy hasalikoañey.
Now there was no food in all the land; for the famine was severe. The land of Egypt and the land of Canaan wasted away because of the famine.
14 Natonto’ Iosefe ze hene drala nioniñe an-tane Mitsraime ao naho an-tane Kanàne ao, ampitsalohañe ty mahakama nikaloa’ iareo vaho nasese’ Iosefe añ’anjomba’ i Parò ao o dralao.
Joseph gathered all the money that was in the land of Egypt and in the land of Canaan, by selling grain to the inhabitants. Then Joseph brought the money to Pharaoh's palace.
15 Ie nikapaike ze hene drala an-tane Mitsraime naho an-tane Kanàne añe, le nivotrak’ am’ Iosefe o hene nte-Mitsraimeo nanao ty hoe, Añomezo mahakama! Hatao akore ty hivetraha’ay añatrefa’o? Fa kòake o dralao.
When all the money of the lands of Egypt and Canaan was spent, all the Egyptians came to Joseph saying, “Give us food! Why should we die in your presence because our money is gone?”
16 Le hoe ty natoi’ Iosefe, Meo ahiko ty hare’ areo, le ho tolorako mahakama ampitsalohañe hare kanao kapai-drala.
Joseph said, “If your money is gone, bring your livestock and I will give you food in exchange for your livestock.”
17 Aa le nendese’ iareo am’ Iosefe ty hare’ iareo vaho tinolo’ Iosefe mahakama ampikaloañe soavala naho o añondri’ iareo naho o añombe’ iareo naho o birikeo, le finaha’e mahakama amy taoñey o hare’ iareoo.
So they brought their livestock to Joseph. Joseph gave them food in exchange for the horses, for the flocks, for the herds, and for the donkeys. He fed them with bread in exchange for all their livestock that year.
18 Ie nimodo i taoñey le niheo ama’e mb’eo amy taoñe nanonjohiy iereo, nanao ty hoe, Tsy hai’ay aetak’ amy talè’aiy te fa kapioke o drala’aio naho fa amy talè’ay ze troke añombe. Le tsy eo ty añatrefam-pihaino’ o talè’aio naho tsy o sandri’aio naho o tane’aio.
When that year was ended, they came to him the next year and said to him, “We will not hide from my master that our money is all gone, and the herds of cattle are my master's. There is nothing left in the sight of my master, except our bodies and our land.
19 Inoñe ty hikoromaha’ay naho o tane’aio añatrefam-pihaino’o? Vilio zahay naho o tane’aio hatakalo i mahakamay. Ho ondevo’ i Parò zahay naho o tane’ay iabio; fe meo tabiry tsy hivetraha’ay vaho te tsy hangoakoake i taney.
Why should we die before your eyes, both we and our land? Buy us and our land in exchange for food, and we and our land will be servants to Pharaoh. Give us seed that we may live and not die, and that the land may not become desolate.”
20 Aa le hene kinalo’ Iosefe ty tane Mitsraime ho a i Parò. Fa songa nandetake i tete’ey o nte-Mitsraimeo ami’ty hamafe’ i san-kerey ama’e; aa le niazo’ i Parò i taney.
So Joseph bought all the land of Egypt for Pharaoh. For every Egyptian sold his field, because the famine was very severe. In this way, the land became Pharaoh's.
21 Le ty am’ ondatio, naveve’e mb’an-drova ao, sikal’ ami’ty efe’ i Mitsraime añe pak’ añ’efe’e ila’e ka.
As for the people, he made them slaves from one end of Egypt's border to the other end.
22 Ty tane’ o mpisoroñeo avao ty tsy vinili’e; amy te nahazo vati-jadoñe erik’ amy Parò naho nikama i vaty namahana’ i Parò iareoy vaho tsy naleta’ iareo o taneo.
It was only the land of the priests that Joseph did not buy, because the priests were given an allowance. They ate from the allotment which Pharaoh gave them. Therefore they did not sell their land.
23 Le hoe t’Iosefe am’ondatio, Kanao nikaloeko ama’areo anindroany ho a i Parò o sandri’ areoo naho ty tane’areo, intoy ty tabiry ho anahareo; tongiso i taney.
Then Joseph said to the people, “See, I have bought you and your land today for Pharaoh. Now here is seed for you, and you will plant the land.
24 Le hatolo’ areo amy Parò am-pitatahañe añe ty faha-lime’e naho ho tana’areo ty faha-lime’e efatse ho tabiry amo tonda’ areoo, le ho mahakama’ areo naho ho a o añ’anjomba’ areoo vaho ho a o keleia’ areoo.
At the harvest, you must give a fifth to Pharaoh, and four parts will be your own, for seed of the field and for food for your households and your children.”
25 Hoe iereo, Fa rinomba’o ty fiai’ay, aa ehe te hahatendrek’ isoke am-pahaoniñan-talekoy, le ho mpitoro’ i Parò zahay.
They said, “You have saved our lives. May we find favor in your eyes. We will be Pharaoh's servants.”
26 Aa le nanoe’ Iosefe fañè an-tane Mitsraime pak’ androany te a i Parò ty faha-lime’e naho tsy ty tane’ o mpisoroñeo avao, ie tsy nivalike ho amy Parò.
So Joseph made it a statute which is in effect in the land of Egypt to this day, that one-fifth belongs to Pharaoh. Only the land of the priests did not become Pharaoh's.
27 Aa le nitoetse an-tane Mitsraime, an-tane Gosena añe t’Israele vaho nanontoñe vara ao, le namokatse vaho nangetseketseke.
So Israel lived in the land of Egypt, in the land of Goshen. His people gained possessions there. They were fruitful and multiplied greatly.
28 Nimoneñe an-tane Mitsraime ao folo-tao-fito’amby t’Iakòbe. Aa le zato-tsi-efapolo-fito’ amby taoñe ty andro niveloma’ Iakòbe.
Jacob lived in the land of Egypt seventeen years, so the years of Jacob's life were one hundred forty-seven years.
29 Ie nitotoke ty fañitoza’ Israele, le kinanji’e t’Iosefe ana-dahi’e le hoe ty nafè’e: Ie nahaonim-pañisohañe am-pahaisaha’o, le ehe aziliho ambane’ foto-peko ao ty fità’o havana vaho atraho am-patarihañe naho havantañañe. Ko mandeveñe ahy e Mitsraime atoy;
When the time approached for Israel to die, he called his son Joseph and said to him, “If now I have found favor in your eyes, put your hand under my thigh, and show me faithfulness and trustworthiness. Please do not bury me in Egypt.
30 aa kanao hindre hitsalalampatse aman-droaeko ao, le takono hiakatse i Mitsraime vaho alenteho an-kibori’ iareo ao. Hoe ty natoi’e, Hene hanoeko o nisaontsie’oo,
When I sleep with my fathers, you will carry me out of Egypt and bury me in my forefathers' burial place.” Joseph said, “I will do as you have said.”
31 le hoe re, Mifantà amako, le nifanta’e, vaho nibokok’ antondohàm-pandrea’e eo t’Israele.
Israel said, “Swear to me,” and Joseph swore to him. Then Israel bowed down at the head of his bed.
