UGenesisi 40
1 Kwasekusithi emva kwalezizinto umphathinkezo wenkosi yeGibhithe lomphekizinkwa bona enkosini yabo, enkosini yeGibhithe.
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 Ngakho uFaro wabathukuthelela abathenwa bakhe ababili, induna yabaphathinkezo lenduna yabaphekizinkwa.
Pea tuputāmaki ʻa Felo ki heʻene ongo matāpule, ʻio, ki he matāpule ʻoe kau tauhi, mo e matāpule ʻoe kau taʻo mā.
3 Wazinikela esitokisini, endlini yenduna yabalindi, entolongweni, indawo lapho uJosefa ayebotshelwe 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 Induna yabalindi yasimlaya uJosefa ukuba lazo, wazisebenzela; njalo zaba lensuku esitokisini.
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 Zombili zaseziphupha amaphupho, ngamunye iphupho lakhe, ngabusuku bunye, ngamunye njengengcazelo yephupho lakhe, umphathinkezo lomphekizinkwa ababengabenkosi yeGibhithe ababebotshiwe entolongweni.
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 UJosefa wasengena kibo ekuseni, wababona, khangela-ke, benyukumele.
Pea ʻalu ange ʻa Siosefa kiate kinaua ʻi he pongipongi, pea sio ia kiate kinaua, pea vakai, naʻa na matapeko.
7 Wasebabuza abathenwa bakaFaro ababelaye esitokisini endlini yenkosi yakhe, esithi: Kungani ubuso benu budanile lamuhla?
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 Basebesithi kuye: Siphuphile iphupho, njalo kakho umchasisi walo. UJosefa wasesithi kubo: Ingcazelo kayisizo zikaNkulunkulu yini? Ake lingilandisele wona.
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 Induna yabaphathinkezo yalandisa iphupho layo kuJosefa, yathi kuye: Ephutsheni lami, khangela-ke, kwakukhona ivini phambi 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 evinini-ke kwakukhona ingatsha ezintathu; njalo kwakungathi liyahluma, impoko zalo zaphuma, amahlukuzo alo athela izithelo zevini 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 Njalo inkezo kaFaro yayisesandleni sami; ngasengithatha izithelo zevini, ngazikhamela enkezweni kaFaro, nganika inkezo esandleni sikaFaro.
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 wasesithi kuyo: Le yingcazelo yalo. Ingatsha ezintathu ziyizinsuku ezintathu;
Pea pehēange ʻe Siosefa kiate ia, “Ko hono ʻuhinga eni; Ko e vaʻa ʻe tolu, ko e ʻaho ia ʻe tolu.
13 kusesephakathi kwensuku ezintathu uFaro uzaphakamisa ikhanda lakho, akubuyisele esikhundleni sakho; njalo uzanika inkezo kaFaro esandleni sakhe, njengendlela yakuqala lapho wawungumphathinkezo wakhe.
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 ungikhumbule lawe, lapho uhlezi kuhle, ake ungenzele umusa, ungibike kuFaro, ungikhuphe kulindlu.
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 ngebiwa lokwebiwa elizweni lamaHebheru, lalapha futhi kangenzanga lutho ukuze bangifake emgodini.
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 Lapho induna yabaphekizinkwa ibona ukuthi uchasise kuhle, yathi kuJosefa: Lami bengisephutsheni; khangela-ke, bekukhona izitsha ezintathu zilezinkwa ezimhlophe ekhanda lami;
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 njalo esitsheni esingaphezulu kwakukhona okokudla konke kukaFaro, umsebenzi obhakiweyo; njalo inyoni zakudla lokho esitsheni esisekhanda 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 wasephendula wathi: Le yingcazelo yalo. Izitsha ezintathu ziyizinsuku ezintathu;
Pea lea ʻa Siosefa, ʻo pehē: “Ko hono ʻuhinga, eni: ko e kato ʻe tolu ko e ʻaho ia ʻe tolu.
19 kusesephakathi kwensuku ezintathu uFaro uzaphakamisa ikhanda lakho lisuke kuwe, akulengise esihlahleni; inyoni zizakudla inyama yakho ziyisuse kuwe.
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 Kwasekusithi ngosuku lwesithathu, usuku lokuzalwa kukaFaro, wenzela inceku zakhe zonke idili; waphakamisa ikhanda lenduna yabaphathinkezo lekhanda lenduna yabaphekizinkwa phakathi kwenceku 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 Wayibuyisela induna yabaphathinkezo ekuphatheni kwayo inkezo; yasinika 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 wayilengisa induna yabaphekizinkwa, njengoba uJosefa ezichasisele.
Ka naʻa ne tautau ʻae tangata taʻo mā; ʻo hangē ko e fakamatala, ʻa Siosefa,
23 Kodwa induna yabaphathinkezo kayimkhumbulanga uJosefa, kodwa yamkhohlwa.
Ka naʻe ʻikai manatu ʻe he tauhi lahi kia Siosefa, ka naʻa ne fakangaloʻi ia.
