UGenesisi 40
1 Emva kwesikhathi esithile umphathinkezo lomphekizinkwa wenkosi yaseGibhithe bayikhuba inkosi yabo, inkosi yaseGibhithe.
Pea hili ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni, naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ko e tauhi lahi, mo e tangata taʻo mā ʻae tuʻi ʻo ʻIsipite, naʻa na fakaʻitaʻi hona ʻeiki ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻIsipite.
2 UFaro wayezizondele izikhulu zakhe zombili, umphathinkezo omkhulu lomphekizinkwa omkhulu,
Pea tuputāmaki ʻa Felo ki heʻene ongo matāpule, ʻio, ki he matāpule ʻoe kau tauhi, mo e matāpule ʻoe kau taʻo mā.
3 wabaphosela entolongweni eyayisendlini kandunankulu wabalindi, lapho uJosefa ayevalelwe khona.
Pea ne tuku ʻakinaua ke pōpula ʻi he fale ʻoe ʻeiki ʻoe kau leʻo, ki he fale fakapōpula, ko e potu ko ia naʻe nofo haʻisia ai ʻa Siosefa.
4 Indunankulu yabalindi yabanikela kuJosefa, wabalawula. Kwathi sebehlale entolongweni okwesikhathi esithile,
Pea naʻe tuku ʻakinaua ʻe he matāpule ʻoe kau leʻo, kia Siosefa ke ne leʻohi, pea naʻe tauhi ʻe ia ʻakinaua: pea ne na nofo ʻi he fale fakapōpula ʻo fuoloa siʻi pe.
5 ngulowo wamadoda la amabili, umphathinkezo lomphekizinkwa, abenkosi yaseGibhithe, ababevalelwe baphupha amaphupho ngabusuku bunye, kwathi yilelo iphupho laba lengcazelo yalo.
Pea ne na misi fakatouʻosi ʻae misi, taki taha ʻae tangata ʻene misi ʻi he pō pe taha, ʻae tangata taki taha ʻo fakatatau mo hono ʻuhinga ʻo ʻene misi, ʻae tauhi lahi, mo e tangata taʻo mā ʻae tuʻi ʻo ʻIsipite, ʻaia naʻe nofo haʻisia ʻi he fale fakapōpula.
6 Kwathi uJosefa efika kubo kusisa ekuseni, wabona bebunile.
Pea ʻalu ange ʻa Siosefa kiate kinaua ʻi he pongipongi, pea sio ia kiate kinaua, pea vakai, naʻa na matapeko.
7 Wasezibuza izikhulu zikaFaro ezazisentolongweni kanye laye endlini yenkosi yakhe wathi, “Kungani ubuso benu bubunile kanje lamuhla na?”
Pea fehuʻi ia ki he ongo matāpule ʻa Felo, ʻakinaua naʻe pōpula mo ia ʻi he fale ʻo ʻene ʻeiki, ʻo pehē, “Ko e hā ʻoku mo matapeko ai he ʻaho ni?”
8 Baphendula bathi, “Sobabili siphuphile, kodwa kakho ongasichasisela amaphupho ethu.” Ngakho uJosefa wasesithi kubo, “Izingcazelo kakusizikaNkulunkulu na? Ngitshelani amaphupho enu.”
Pea na pehē kiate ia, “Kuo ma misi ʻae misi, pea ʻoku ʻikai ha tokotaha ke fakahā hono ʻuhinga.” Pea pehē ʻe Siosefa kiate kinaua, “ʻIkai ʻoku ʻi he ʻOtua pe hono ʻuhinga? ʻOku ou kole mo fakahā mai ia kiate au.”
9 Umphathinkezo omkhulu wamtshela uJosefa ngephupho lakhe. Wathi kuye, “Ephutsheni lami ngibone isihlahla sevini siphambi kwami,
Pea tala ʻe he tauhi lahi ʻene misi kia Siosefa, ʻo ne pehē kiate ia; “Vakai, ʻi heʻeku misi, naʻe ʻi hoku ʻao ʻae vaine;
10 lelovini lilengatsha ezintathu. Lonela ukuhluma lahle laqhakaza, amaxha alo ahle avuthwa aba yizithelo ezivuthiweyo.
pea naʻe ʻi he vaine ʻae vaʻa ʻe tolu pea hangē naʻe litolito ia, pea tupu hono fisi; pea naʻe tupu ʻi hono ngaahi fuhi ʻae kālepi momoho:
11 Inkezo kaFaro ibisesandleni sami, ngawathatha amagrebisi ngawakhamela enkezweni kaFaro ngamqhubela esandleni sakhe.”
pea naʻe ʻi hoku nima ʻae ipu ʻa Felo pea naʻaku toʻo ʻae ngaahi kālepi, ʻo tatau ia ki he ipu ʻa Felo, pea ne u ʻatu ʻae ipu ki he nima ʻo Felo.”
12 UJosefa wathi kuye, “Nanku elikutshoyo. Amagatsha amathathu yizinsuku ezintathu.
Pea pehēange ʻe Siosefa kiate ia, “Ko hono ʻuhinga eni; Ko e vaʻa ʻe tolu, ko e ʻaho ia ʻe tolu.
13 Phakathi kwensuku ezintathu uFaro uzaphakamisa ikhanda lakho akubisele esikhundleni sakho, njalo uzayibeka inkezo kaFaro esandleni sakhe njengalokhu owawuvele ukwenza usesengumphathinkezo yakhe.
ʻI he teʻeki ʻosi ʻae ʻaho ʻe tolu, ʻe hakeakiʻi Ko e ʻe Felo, ʻo ne toe tuku koe ki hoʻo ngāue: pea te ke ʻatu ʻae ipu ʻa Felo ki hono nima, ʻo hangē ko ia naʻa ke fai ʻi hoʻo kei nofo ko ʻene tauhi lahi.
14 Kodwa nxa konke sekulungile ungikhumbule, ungenzele umusa; ungikhulumele kuFaro ukuze ngiphume kule intolongo.
Ka ʻoka ke ka lelei koe, ke ke manatuʻi au; pea ʻoku ou kole ke ke ʻofa mai kiate au, ʻo tala au kia Felo, pea fakahao au mei he fale ni;
15 Ngoba ngasuswa ngamandla elizweni lamaHebheru, futhi lapha kangenzanga lutho olufanele ukuthi ngifakwe entolongweni.”
He ko e moʻoni naʻe kaihaʻasia au mei he fonua ʻoe kakai Hepelū: pea naʻe ʻikai te u fai ha meʻa ʻi heni foki, koeʻuhi ke nau tuku au ki he fale fakapōpula.”
16 Kwathi umphekizinkwa omkhulu ebona ukuthi uJosefa wayenike ingcazelo emnandi, wathi kuJosefa, “Lami njalo ngiphuphile: Phezu kwekhanda lami bekulezitsha zesinkwa ezintathu.
Pea kuo mamata ʻe he tangata taʻo mā, ʻoku lelei hono ʻuhinga, pea pehē ʻe ia kia Siosefa: “Naʻaku misi foki, pea vakai, naʻe ʻi hoku ʻulu ʻae kato hinehina ʻe tolu;
17 Esitsheni esiphezulu bekulemihlobo yonke yalokho okubhekhelwe uFaro, kodwa izinyoni zazilokhu zisidlala esitsheni sisekhanda lami.”
Pea naʻe ʻi he kato ʻi ʻolunga ʻae ngaahi meʻakai, kuo taʻo kia Felo; pea naʻe kai ia ʻe he fanga manupuna mei he kato, ʻi hoku ʻulu.”
18 UJosefa wathi, “Nanku elikutshoyo. Izitsha ezintathu zinsuku ezintathu.
Pea lea ʻa Siosefa, ʻo pehē: “Ko hono ʻuhinga, eni: ko e kato ʻe tolu ko e ʻaho ia ʻe tolu.
19 Phakathi kwensuku ezintathu uFaro uzaliphakamisa ikhanda lakho akulengise esihlahleni. Izinyoni zizakudla inyama yakho.”
Pea ʻi he teʻeki ke ʻosi ʻae ʻaho ʻe tolu, ʻe hiki ʻe Felo ho ʻulu meiate koe, pea te ne tautau koe ki he ʻakau; pea ʻe kai ʻe he fanga manupuna, ʻae kakano meiate koe.”
20 Ilanga lesithathu laliyisikhumbuzo sokuzalwa kukaFaro, ngakho wenzela izikhulu zakhe idili. Waphakamisa amakhanda amabili, elomphathinkezo omkhulu lelomphekizinkwa omkhulu phambi kwezikhulu zakhe:
Pea ʻi heʻene hokosia hono ʻaho tolu, ko e ʻaho fakamanatu ki he fanauʻi ʻo Felo, naʻa ne fai ʻae kātoanga ki heʻene kau nofoʻanga kotoa pē, pea naʻa ne lau hake ʻae tauhi lahi, mo e tangata taʻo mā, ʻi heʻene kau nofoʻanga.
21 Wabuyisela umphathinkezo esikhundleni sakhe, waphinda njalo ukubeka inkezo esandleni sikaFaro,
Pea ne toe tuku ki he tauhi lahi ʻa ʻene ngāue: pea toe ʻatu ʻe ia ʻae ipu ki he nima ʻo Felo;
22 kodwa walengisa umphekizinkwa omkhulu, kwaba njengoba uJosefa wayetshilo kubo ekubachasiseleni kwakhe.
Ka naʻa ne tautau ʻae tangata taʻo mā; ʻo hangē ko e fakamatala, ʻa Siosefa,
23 Kodwa umphathinkezo omkhulu kasamkhumbulanga uJosefa; wakhohlwa ngaye.
Ka naʻe ʻikai manatu ʻe he tauhi lahi kia Siosefa, ka naʻa ne fakangaloʻi ia.
