< UGenesisi 39 >
1 UJosefa wasesehliselwa eGibhithe; njalo uPotifa, umphathi kaFaro, induna yabalindi, indoda engumGibhithe, wamthenga esandleni samaIshmayeli, ababemehlisele khona.
Leleꞌ naa, atahori Ismael ra ro Yusuf Masir neu. Sia naa, hambu malangga esa, nara na Potifar. Eni, malangga mia basa soldꞌadꞌu mana manea sia mane Masir ume panggat na. Potifar hasa nala Yusuf mia mana danggan ra, fo dadꞌi ate sia ume na. Sia naa, LAMATUALAIN tulu-fali Yusuf, de ue-tatao nara basa se dadꞌi no maloleꞌ.
2 Njalo iNkosi yayiloJosefa, waze waba ngumuntu ophumelelayo; wayesendlini yenkosi yakhe, umGibhithe.
3 Inkosi yakhe yasibona ukuthi iNkosi ilaye, lokuthi konke akwenzayo iNkosi yakuphumelelisa esandleni sakhe.
Malangga na nita e tao ues malole na seli, ma nahine tebꞌe nae LAMATUALAIN tulu-fali Yusuf.
4 UJosefa wasethola umusa emehlweni ayo, wayisebenzela; njalo yamenza waba ngumphathi wendlu yayo, lakho konke eyayilakho yakunikela esandleni sakhe.
Naa de malangga na hii ma namahere e. De ana soꞌu e dadꞌi mandor sia umen. Ana fee ne tao mataꞌ neu umen ma basa hata-heton.
5 Kwasekusithi kusukela esikhathini eyamenza ngaso umphathi wendlu yayo, lakho konke eyayilakho, iNkosi yabusisa indlu yomGibhithe ngenxa kaJosefa; lesibusiso seNkosi saba phezu kwakho konke eyayilakho, endlini lensimini.
Huu Yusuf leo sia naa, de Lamatualain o fee papala-babꞌanggiꞌ neu malangga, atahori Masir naa. Ume isi nara, hata-heto na, osi na, no ue-tatao na o dadꞌi maloleꞌ.
6 Yasitshiya konke eyayilakho esandleni sikaJosefa; yayingazi lutho lwayo, ngaphandle kokudla eyayikudla. Futhi uJosefa wayemuhle ngesimo, ekhangeleka kuhle.
Huu Potifar mete Yusuf tao mataꞌ neu basa ue-tataos ra no maloleꞌ, naa de ana nda afiꞌ duꞌa saa saꞌ boe, nahineꞌ a naaꞌ a. Leleꞌ naa, Yusuf ia meulau na seli.
7 Kwasekusithi emva kwalezizinto, inkosikazi yenkosi yakhe yaphakamisela amehlo ayo kuJosefa; yathi: Lala lami.
Ana nda feꞌe leo dooꞌ sia naa sa te, Potifar sao na nau no e. Boe ma ana kokoe Yusuf fo nae sungguꞌ no e.
8 Kodwa wala, wathi enkosikazini yenkosi yakhe: Khangela, inkosi yami kayikwazi okulami endlini, njalo konke elakho ikunikela esandleni sami;
Te Yusuf nda nau sa. De nataa nae, “Afiꞌ taꞌo naa, inaꞌ! Te malangga ngga Potifar fee au koasa fo tao mataꞌ neu basa ue-tataos ra.
9 kakho omkhulu kulami endlini le; njalo kayingigodlelanga lutho, ngaphandle kwakho, ngalokhu ukuthi ungumkayo; njalo ngingenza njani lobububi obukhulu, ngone kuNkulunkulu?
Sia ume ia, nda hambu atahori sa toꞌu koasa lenaꞌ au sa. Malangga fee au koasa basa ume isiꞌ a, akaꞌ a inaꞌ fo hokoꞌ. Taꞌo bee de au tao deꞌulakaꞌ onaꞌ naa. Naa o au labꞌan Lamatualain hihiin.”
10 Kwasekusithi ekukhulumeni kwakhe kuJosefa insuku ngensuku, kazange amlalele, ukulala laye, lokuba laye.
Te mae onaꞌ naa o, tungga fai, malangga sao na akaꞌ kokoe nakandooꞌ a. Te Yusuf nda tao afiꞌ neu e sa.
11 Kwasekusithi ngosuku oluthile wangena endlini ukuyakwenza umsebenzi wakhe, njalo kwakungekho owamadoda endlu lapho endlini,
Lao esa ma, Yusuf ume rala neu, de nae mete ues nara. Faiꞌ naa, atahori nese ume.
12 yasimbamba ngesembatho sakhe isithi: Lala lami. Kodwa watshiya isembatho sakhe esandleni sayo, wabaleka, waphumela phandle.
Boe ma malangga sao na nema lea Yusuf badꞌu na, de nae, “Uma leo! Ia naa helaꞌ a hita ruꞌa nggita ena. Uma leo fo teu sungguꞌ.” Te Yusuf nda nau sa. De ana nalelea, sambe badꞌu na lufa hendiꞌ e. Boe ma ana nela dea neu. Te inaꞌ naa feꞌe toꞌu nahereꞌ badꞌu a.
13 Kwasekusithi isibonile ukuthi utshiyile isembatho sakhe esandleni sayo, wabalekela phandle,
Ana nita Yusuf nela hela badꞌu na ma,
14 yabiza amadoda endlu yayo, yakhuluma kuwo isithi: Bonani, usilethele indoda engumHebheru ukudlala ngathi; uze kimi ukuze alale lami, ngamemeza ngelizwi elikhulu;
ana noꞌe atahori mana tao ues nara, de nafadꞌe nae, “We! Ima mita dei. Faꞌ ra tou Ibrani naa, masoꞌ au kama ngga. Ana nae parkosa au, te au nggasi uhereꞌ. Mete sie, ana hela badꞌu na, de nela dea neu. Au sao ngga nendi atahori ia nda maloleꞌ sa de tao naꞌamamaeꞌ a hita!”
15 kwasekusithi esezwile ukuthi ngiphakamise ilizwi lami ngakhala, watshiya isembatho sakhe eceleni kwami, wabaleka, waphumela phandle.
16 Yasisibeka isembatho sakhe eceleni kwayo, yaze yafika inkosi yakhe ekhaya.
Boe ma ana toꞌu badꞌu naa losa sao na baliꞌ.
17 Njalo yakhuluma kuyo njengalamazwi isithi: Inceku engumHebheru, osilethele yona, izile kimi ukuze idlale ngami;
Sao na baliꞌ ma, ana dui nae, “Aꞌa e! Atahori Ibrani fo aꞌa noꞌ a, faꞌ ra ana mia au kama ngga rala, nae parkosa au.
18 kwasekusithi sengiphakamise ilizwi lami ngakhala, yatshiya isembatho sayo eceleni kwami, yabalekela phandle.
Te au randu uhereꞌ oꞌe atahori ra. De ana nela, lao hela badꞌu na.”
19 Kwasekusithi inkosi yakhe isizwe amazwi omkayo, ewakhulume kuyo, esithi: Njengalamazwi inceku yakho yenze kimi, ulaka lwayo lwavutha.
Rena sao na dui taꞌo naa, boe ma Potifar namanasa seli.
20 Inkosi kaJosefa yasimthatha yamfaka entolongweni, indawo lapho izibotshwa zenkosi ezazibotshelwa khona; wasesiba lapho entolongweni.
Ana denu reu toꞌu Yusuf, de tao e nisiꞌ maneꞌ a bui na rala.
21 Kodwa iNkosi yaba loJosefa, yelulela umusa kuye, yasimupha umusa emehlweni enduna yentolongo.
Te LAMATUALAIN nda liliiꞌ Yusuf sa. De Ana tulun e, losa malangga bui a o hii Yusuf,
22 Induna yentolongo yanikela-ke esandleni sikaJosefa zonke izibotshwa ezazisentolongweni; lakho konke ezazikwenza lapho, wayengumenzi.
ma namahere e boe. De ana fee ne tao mataꞌ neu basa atahori bui ra, ma basa ue-tataos sia naa ra.
23 Induna yentolongo kayisakhangelanga lutho olwalusesandleni sakhe, ngoba iNkosi yayilaye; lalokho akwenzayo iNkosi yakuphumelelisa.
Huu naa, malangga nda tao mataꞌ neu saa-saa sia bui rala sa ena. LAMATUALAIN tulu-fali Yusuf nakandooꞌ a, de basa ue-tataos ra dadꞌi no maloleꞌ.
