1 UJosefa wathathwa wasiwa eGibhithe. UPhothifa, owayengomunye wezikhulu zikaFaro, eyindunankulu yabalindi, wamthenga kuma-Ishumayeli abayibo abamletha khona.
Koro Josef noseter Misri. Potifa ma ja-Misri mane en achiel kuom jatend Farao, kendo jaduongʼ od ruoth nongʼiewe kuom jo-Ishmael mane okele kanyo.
2 UThixo wayelaye uJosefa, waphumelela, wahlala endlini yenkosi yakhe umGibhithe.
Jehova Nyasaye ne ni kod Josef kendo nogwedhe, kendo nodak e od ruodhe ma ja-Misri.
3 Kwathi inkosi yakhe ikubona ukuthi uThixo wayelaye lokuthi uThixo wamphumelelisa kukho konke ayekwenza,
Kane ruodhe oneno ni Jehova Nyasaye ne ni kode kendo ni Jehova Nyasaye nogwedho gik moko duto ma otimo,
4 uJosefa wasethandeka kuye wasesiba yinceku yakhe. UPhothifa wasembeka ukuba ngumphathi womuzi wakhe, kwathi konke ayelakho wakubeka ezandleni zakhe.
nobedo mamor gi Josef kendo Josef notiyone, Potifa nokete jarit ode kod mwandu duto mane en-go.
5 Kusukela ngesikhathi embeka ukuba ngumphathi womuzi wakhe lakho konke okwakungokwakhe, uThixo wawubusisa umuzi womGibhithe ngenxa kaJosefa. Isibusiso sikaThixo saba phezu kwakho konke uPhothifa ayelakho, loba kusendlini loba kusensimini.
Chakre ndalo mane okete jarit ode kendo jarit gik moko duto ma en-go, Jehova Nyasaye nogwedho gik moko duto mane ni e od ja-Misri nikech Josef. Jehova Nyasaye nogwedho gimoro amora mane Potifa nigo e ot kod e puodho.
6 Ngakho watshiya konke okwakhe ezandleni zikaJosefa; kwathi ngoba uJosefa enguye ophetheyo wakhohlwa ngakho konke ngaphandle kokudla ayekudla. UJosefa lo wayemi kuhle, ebukeka,
Omiyo noweyo gik moko duto mane en-go e lwet Josef kaka jarit; makoro Potifa ne ok odewo rango gimoro amora makmana chiemo mane ochamo. Josef ne nigi chia kendo jaber.
7 kwasekusithi ngemva kwesikhathi inkosikazi yenkosi yakhe yambuka, yamfisa uJosefa yathi, “Woza engutsheni lami!”
Kendo bangʼ kinde manok, chi ruodh Josef norange kagombe kendo nowachone niya, “Bi e kitanda ka mondo iriwri koda.”
8 Kodwa wala. Wamtshela wathi, “Njengoba kuyimi engiphetheyo, inkosi yami kayizihluphi ngalutho emzini wayo; yonke into elayo iyibeke ezandleni zami.
To Josef nodagi mowachone niya, “Ruodha ongʼeyo gimoro amora manie odni, gimoro amora ma en-go oseketo e lweta.
9 Kakho omkhulu kulami kulumuzi. Inkosi yami kayingalisi lutho ngaphandle kwakho, ngoba wena ungumkayo. Pho ngingayenza kanjani into embi kanje, ngenze isono kuNkulunkulu na?”
Onge ngʼama nigi teko e odni moloya. Ruodha ok osetama gimoro amora manie odni makmana in, nikech in chiege. Koro ere kaka anyalo timo tim richo kendo makwero ma Nyasaye odagi?”
10 Kwathi loba emphikelela uJosefa insuku ngensuku, wala ukulala laye wala lokuthi ahlale laye.
To nodhi nyime kowachone Josef wechego odiechiengʼ kodiechiengʼ, to notamore riwore kode kata bedo bute.
11 Ngolunye usuku wangena endlini ukuqhuba umsebenzi wakhe, izisebenzi zasendlini zingekho phakathi endlini.
Chiengʼ moro achiel Josef nodhi e od ruodhe mondo otim tije kaka pile kendo ne onge jatich moro amora e ot.
12 UmkaPhothifa wambamba ngesigqoko wathi, “Woza engutsheni ulale lami!” Kodwa waphunyuka wabaleka waphuma endlini, isigqoko sakhe sasala esandleni sowesifazane.
Chi Potifa ne omake gilawe kendo owachone niya, “Bi mondo ibed koda e achiel!” To Josef noringo mowuok oko mar odno kendo noweyo lawe e lwet chi Potifa.
13 Kwathi ebona ukuthi utshiye isigqoko sakhe esandleni sakhe njalo wabaleka endlini,
Kane dhakono oneno ni Josef oweyo lawe e lwete kendo oringo owuok oko mar ot,
14 owesifazane wamemeza izisebenzi zendlini wathi kuzo, “Khangelani, umHebheru lo walethwa lapha ukuzadlala ngathi! Ungene lapha efuna ukulala lami, kodwa ngahlaba umkhosi.
noluongo jotichge mag ot mowachonegi niya, “Neuru, ja-Hibraniani osekelnwa mondo okuod wiwa! Nodonjo ira ka mondo oriwre koda, to ne agoyo uwi matek.
15 Uthe esizwa ngihlaba umkhosi ngidinga uncedo, wasetshiya isigqoko sakhe eceleni kwami wabaleka waphuma endlini.”
Kane owinjo ka agoyo uwi matek mondo okonya, noringo moweyo lawe sa ma noringo owuok oko mar ot.”
16 Wasigcina isigqoko eceleni kwakhe inkosi kaJosefa yaze yabuya ngekhaya.
Dhakono nokano lawno nyaka chwore noduogo dala.
17 Waseyitshela indaba le wathi: “Isigqili somHebheru lesiyana owasilethela sona sifikile kimi ukuzadlala ngami.
Eka nowacho ne chwore wachni niya, “Jatich ma ja-Hibrania manyocha ikelonwa nobiro ira mondo okuod wiya.
18 Kodwa ngonele ukuthi ngihlabe umkhosi ngidinga uncedo, satshiya isigqoko saso eceleni kwami sabaleka saphuma endlini.”
To ka ne agoyo uwi mondo okonya, noweya gi nangane, kendo oringo owuok oko.”
19 Kwathi inkosi yakhe isizwile indaba eyayitshelwa ngumfazi esithi, “Singenze njalo isigqili sakho,” yathukuthela kakhulu.
Ka ruodhe nowinjo gima chiege owachone kuom gima jatichne osetimone, iye nowangʼ matek.
20 Inkosi yakhe uJosefa yamthatha yamphosela entolongweni, indawo lapho okwakuvalelwa khona izibotshwa zenkosi. Kodwa kwathi uJosefa ekhonapho entolongweni,
Ruodh Josef nomako Josef mokete e od twech, kamane ikanoe joma otwe mag ruoth. To kane Josef ni e od twech,
21 uThixo waba laye; wamenzela umusa wamenza wathandeka emehlweni omphathijele.
Jehova Nyasaye ne ni kode; notimone kech kendo nomiyo oyudo ngʼwono e nyim jorit joma ne otwe.
22 Ngakho-ke umphathijele wamkhweza wamenza umphathi wabo bonke ababebotshiwe besentolongweni, njalo kwaba nguye okhangele konke okwakusenziwa khona.
Kuom mano jaduongʼ mar od twech noketo Josef jatend joma otwe duto e od twech kendo Josef ema norito gik moko duto mane itimo kanyo.
23 Umphathijele kazange azihluphe loba ngani eyayiphethwe nguJosefa ngoba uThixo wayelaye uJosefa, wamupha impumelelo kukho konke ayekwenza.
Jarit joma ni e od twech ne ok odewo rango gimoro amora mane oseketo e lwet Josef, nikech Jehova Nyasaye ne ni kod Josef kendo nogwedhe e gimoro amora mane otimo.
