< UGenesisi 39 >

1 UJosefa wathathwa wasiwa eGibhithe. UPhothifa, owayengomunye wezikhulu zikaFaro, eyindunankulu yabalindi, wamthenga kuma-Ishumayeli abayibo abamletha khona.
Yeroo kanatti Yoosef Gibxitti geeffamee ture. Phoxiifaaraan namichi Gibxi qondaalli Faraʼoon kan ajajaa waardiyyaa ture sun Ishmaaʼeeloota achi isa geessan irraa isa bitate.
2 UThixo wayelaye uJosefa, waphumelela, wahlala endlini yenkosi yakhe umGibhithe.
Yoosefis waan Waaqayyo isa wajjin tureef nama milkaaʼaa taʼe; innis mana gooftaa isaa namicha biyya Gibxi sanaa jiraate.
3 Kwathi inkosi yakhe ikubona ukuthi uThixo wayelaye lokuthi uThixo wamphumelelisa kukho konke ayekwenza,
Gooftaan isaas akka Waaqayyo isa wajjin jiruu fi akka Waaqayyo waan inni hojjetu hunda keessatti isa milkoomse arge;
4 uJosefa wasethandeka kuye wasesiba yinceku yakhe. UPhothifa wasembeka ukuba ngumphathi womuzi wakhe, kwathi konke ayelakho wakubeka ezandleni zakhe.
Yoosefis fuula gooftaa isaa duratti fudhatama argatee hojjetaa isaa amanamaa taʼe. Phoxiifaaraanis mana isaa irratti isa muude; waan qabu hundumas akka inni eeguuf imaanaa itti kenne.
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.
Gaafa inni mana isaatii fi waan inni qabu hunda irratti isa muudee jalqabee Waaqayyo sababii Yoosefiif jedhee mana namicha Gibxi sanaa eebbise. Eebbi Waaqayyoos waan Phoxiifaaraan manaa fi alaa qabu hunda irra ture.
6 Ngakho watshiya konke okwakhe ezandleni zikaJosefa; kwathi ngoba uJosefa enguye ophetheyo wakhohlwa ngakho konke ngaphandle kokudla ayekudla. UJosefa lo wayemi kuhle, ebukeka,
Kanaafuu Phoxiifaaraan waan qabu hunda harka Yoosef jala galche; innis waan nyaatu qofa malee qabeenya isaa tokko illee hin beeku ture. Yoosef dhaaba toleessaa fi miidhagaa ture;
7 kwasekusithi ngemva kwesikhathi inkosikazi yenkosi yakhe yambuka, yamfisa uJosefa yathi, “Woza engutsheni lami!”
niitiin gooftaa isaas waan kana booddee ija ishee Yoosef irra buufattee, “Kottuu na bira gaʼi!” jetteen.
8 Kodwa wala. Wamtshela wathi, “Njengoba kuyimi engiphetheyo, inkosi yami kayizihluphi ngalutho emzini wayo; yonke into elayo iyibeke ezandleni zami.
Inni garuu didee akkana isheen jedhe; “Kunoo, gooftaan koo waan mana keessa jiru tokko illee hin beeku; inni waan qabu hunda natti kenneera.
9 Kakho omkhulu kulami kulumuzi. Inkosi yami kayingalisi lutho ngaphandle kwakho, ngoba wena ungumkayo. Pho ngingayenza kanjani into embi kanje, ngenze isono kuNkulunkulu na?”
Mana kana keessatti namni na caalu tokko iyyuu hin jiru. Sababii ati niitii isaa taateef siʼi malee wanni gooftaan koo natti hin kennin tokko iyyuu hin jiru. Yoos ani akkamittan waan hamaa akkasii raawwachuudhaan Waaqatti cubbuu hojjedha ree?”
10 Kwathi loba emphikelela uJosefa insuku ngensuku, wala ukulala laye wala lokuthi ahlale laye.
Isheen guyyuma guyyaan Yoosefitti dubbattu iyyuu, inni ishee bira gaʼuu yookaan ishee biratti argamuu illee ni dide.
11 Ngolunye usuku wangena endlini ukuqhuba umsebenzi wakhe, izisebenzi zasendlini zingekho phakathi endlini.
Gaaf tokko Yoosef hojii isaa hojjechuuf mana seene; tajaajiltoota warra mana sanaa keessaas namni tokko iyyuu achi hin turre.
12 UmkaPhothifa wambamba ngesigqoko wathi, “Woza engutsheni ulale lami!” Kodwa waphunyuka wabaleka waphuma endlini, isigqoko sakhe sasala esandleni sowesifazane.
Isheenis wayyaa isaa qabattee, “Kottuutii na bira gaʼi!” jetteen. Inni garuu wayyaa isaa isheetti gad lakkisee fiigee manaa baʼe.
13 Kwathi ebona ukuthi utshiye isigqoko sakhe esandleni sakhe njalo wabaleka endlini,
Isheenis yommuu akka inni wayyaa isaa isheetti gad lakkisee fiigee manaa baʼe argitetti,
14 owesifazane wamemeza izisebenzi zendlini wathi kuzo, “Khangelani, umHebheru lo walethwa lapha ukuzadlala ngathi! Ungene lapha efuna ukulala lami, kodwa ngahlaba umkhosi.
hojjettoota mana ishee waamtee akkana jetteen; “Kunoo, inni Ibricha kana akka nutti taphatuuf fide! Inni na bira gaʼuuf natti ol seennaan ani sagalee guddaan iyye.
15 Uthe esizwa ngihlaba umkhosi ngidinga uncedo, wasetshiya isigqoko sakhe eceleni kwami wabaleka waphuma endlini.”
Innis gargaarsa barbaachaaf iyyuu koo dhageenyaan wayyaa isaa na biratti dhiisee fiigee manaa baʼe.”
16 Wasigcina isigqoko eceleni kwakhe inkosi kaJosefa yaze yabuya ngekhaya.
Isheen hamma gooftaan isaa galutti wayyaa isaa of bira keesse.
17 Waseyitshela indaba le wathi: “Isigqili somHebheru lesiyana owasilethela sona sifikile kimi ukuzadlala ngami.
Akkana jettees oduu kana isatti himte: “Garbichi Ibrichi ati nuu fidde sun natti taphachuuf natti ol seene.
18 Kodwa ngonele ukuthi ngihlabe umkhosi ngidinga uncedo, satshiya isigqoko saso eceleni kwami sabaleka saphuma endlini.”
Garuu akkuma ani gargaarsa barbaachaaf iyyeen inni wayyaa isaa na biratti dhiisee fiigee manaa baʼe.”
19 Kwathi inkosi yakhe isizwile indaba eyayitshelwa ngumfazi esithi, “Singenze njalo isigqili sakho,” yathukuthela kakhulu.
Gooftaan isaa yommuu oduu niitiin isaa, “Wanni garbichi kee na godhe kana” jettee itti himte sana dhagaʼetti aaree gubate.
20 Inkosi yakhe uJosefa yamthatha yamphosela entolongweni, indawo lapho okwakuvalelwa khona izibotshwa zenkosi. Kodwa kwathi uJosefa ekhonapho entolongweni,
Gooftaan isaas Yoosefin fuudhee mana hidhaa iddoo hidhamtoonni mootichaa itti eegaman keessa buuse. Taʼus yeroo Yoosef mana hidhaa keessa turetti,
21 uThixo waba laye; wamenzela umusa wamenza wathandeka emehlweni omphathijele.
Waaqayyo isa wajjin ture; fuula ajajaa mana hidhaa sanaa durattis gaarummaa isaa itti argisiise; akka fudhatamas argatu godhe.
22 Ngakho-ke umphathijele wamkhweza wamenza umphathi wabo bonke ababebotshiwe besentolongweni, njalo kwaba nguye okhangele konke okwakusenziwa khona.
Ajajaan mana hidhaa sunis namoota mana hidhaa jiran hunda irratti Yoosefin muude; waan achitti hojjetamu hunda irrattis itti gaafatamaa isa godhe.
23 Umphathijele kazange azihluphe loba ngani eyayiphethwe nguJosefa ngoba uThixo wayelaye uJosefa, wamupha impumelelo kukho konke ayekwenza.
Sababii Waaqayyo isa wajjin turee fi waan inni hojjetu kam iyyuu isaa milkeesseef ajajaan mana hidhaa sun waan itti gaafatama Yoosef jala jiru hundaaf yaaddoo tokko illee hin qabu ture.
