UGenesisi 43
1 Indlala yasisiba nzima elizweni.
Leleꞌ naa, ndoes-laꞌas sia Kanaꞌan boe fua.
2 Kwasekusithi sebeqedile ukudla ababebuye lakho eGibhithe, uyise wathi kubo: Buyelani, lisithengele ukudla okulutshwana.
Yakob no ume isi nara rabasaꞌ hendi nanaat fo maꞌahulu na, ana nara rendi mia Masir. Boe ma ana nafadꞌe se nae, “Ana nggare. Malole lenaꞌ hei baliꞌ Masir mii, fo hasa seluꞌ nanaat fee hita dei.”
3 UJuda wasekhuluma kuye wathi: Leyondoda yasiqonqosela yathi: Kalisoze libubone ubuso bami ngaphandle kokuthi umnawenu libe laye.
Te Yahuda nataa nae, “Amaꞌ! Faiꞌ naa, fetor naa fee nesenenedꞌaꞌ neu hai nae, mete ma hai nda mo amaꞌ ana muri ma sa, naa, hai afiꞌ mitudꞌu mata mara neu e.
4 Uba uthuma umnawethu lathi, sizakwehla siyekuthengela ukudla,
De amaꞌ musi mboꞌi odꞌi Benyamin, fo tungga hai dei. Naa fo hai feꞌe mii hasa nanaat fee amaꞌ.
5 kodwa uba ungamthumi, kasiyikwehla, ngoba leyondoda yathi kithi: Kalisoze libubone ubuso bami ngaphandle kokuthi umnawenu lilaye.
Te mete ma amaꞌ nda fee Benyamin neu sa, naa, hai o nda mi saꞌ boe. Te atahori Masir naa olaꞌ taꞌo naa ena naa.”
6 UIsrayeli wasesithi: Lenzelani okubi kimi ngokuyazisa leyondoda ukuthi liselomnawenu?
Boe ma Yakob ai se nae, “Taꞌo bee de hei mifadꞌe atahori naa, mae hei odꞌi ma feꞌe hela esa fai. Hei sangga miꞌisususaꞌ a au!”
7 Basebesithi: Leyondoda yabuzisisa mayelana lathi langezihlobo zethu, isithi: Uyihlo usaphila yini? Lilomnawenu yini? Sayilandisela ngalawomazwi; ukwazi sasikwazi yini ukuthi izakuthi: Yehlani lomnawenu?
Te ara kokoe rae, “Amaꞌ e! Atahori naa akaꞌ natane nakandooꞌ a, fo nae bubꞌuluꞌ hita bobꞌonggiꞌ nara. Ana natane nae, ‘Taꞌo bee? Hei ama ma feꞌe masodꞌaꞌ, do? Hei feꞌe ma odꞌi touꞌ fai, do?’ De hai feꞌe mae saa fai!’ Naa de hai o olaꞌ no matetuꞌ boe. Te se nitaꞌ nae ana nae denu hai mendi odꞌiꞌ neu sia naa?”
8 UJuda wasesithi kuIsrayeli uyise: Thuma umfana lami; besesisukuma sihambe, ukuze siphile singafi, lathi, lawe, labantwanyana bethu.
Boe ma Yahuda olaꞌ seluꞌ nae, “Amaꞌ! Mboꞌi anaꞌ naa neu no hai leo. Au helu, mete ma dadꞌi saa-saa neu e, naa, au nggati ala e. Mete ma au nda o baliꞌ e masodꞌaꞌ neu amaꞌ sa, naa, amaꞌ fua salaꞌ neu au losa mate. Dadꞌi amaꞌ mboꞌi anaꞌ naa leo, te hai mae lao ia ena. Malole lenaꞌ hai mi lai-lai, fo ata afiꞌ mate ndoes.
9 Mina ngizakuba yisibambiso sakhe; uzambiza esandleni sami; uba ngingambuyisi kuwe ngimbeke phambi kwakho, ngizakuba lecala kuwe zonke izinsuku.
10 Isibili uba besingalibalanga, qotho ngabe khathesi sesibuyile kabili.
Sobꞌa hai nda mihani doo na basa ia sa, naa hai baliꞌ lao rua ena.”
11 UIsrayeli uyise wasesithi kubo: Uba kunjalo khathesi, yenzani lokhu; thathani okwezithelo ezikhethiweyo zelizwe ezitsheni zenu, liyehlisele leyondoda isipho, inhlaka eyingcosana, loluju oluyingcosana, isinongo, lemure, imkelu yepistakiyo, lama-alimondi;
Boe ma ama na nae, “Mete ma taꞌo naa, naa, hei tao taꞌo ia. Mendi hita rae na buna-bꞌoa malole na, onaꞌ a oni oeꞌ, bumbu-bumbu, hau maꞌameniꞌ raa na, modꞌo salap, kanari no hau dekeꞌ lain ra. Mendi basa se fee neu fetor Masir a, fo mae ia hita lepa-ngges na.
12 lithathe imali iphindwe kabili esandleni senu; futhi imali eyabuyiselwayo emlonyeni wamasaka enu liyibuyisele esandleni senu, mhlawumbe kwaba yisiphosiso.
Hei o mendi doiꞌ dedesi na lao rua, huu hei musi fee baliꞌ doiꞌ fo hei hambu mia karon mara faiꞌ naa. Mbei ma atahori naa ra mbedꞌaꞌ rasalaꞌ.
13 Lithathe futhi umfowenu, lisukume, libuyele kuleyondoda.
Mo hei odꞌi ma boe, te baliꞌ lai-lai e.
14 UNkulunkulu uSomandla kaliphe isihawu phambi kwaleyondoda, ukuze alikhululele omunye umfowenu loBhenjamini. Mina-ke, uba ngemukwa abantwana, ngiyemukwa.
Au hule-huleꞌ fo Lamatualain Koasa mana Seliꞌ na, tao fetor a kasian hei. Naa fo ana nau fee baliꞌ Benyamin no Simeon, fo basa hei baliꞌ. Te, mete ma ana nggara mopo se, naa, au lemba sususaꞌ naa sambe mate.”
15 Amadoda asethatha lesosipho, athatha imali ephindwe kabili esandleni sawo loBhenjamini; asukuma ehlela eGibhithe, ema phambi kukaJosefa.
Basa naa de, ara reu raduru lepa-ngges ma haꞌi doiꞌ, fo rendi Masir neu. De ara lao ro Benyamin. Ara losa naa de, reu risiꞌ Yusuf.
16 Kwathi uJosefa embona uBhenjamini elabo, wathi kumphathi wendlu yakhe: Ngenisa lamadoda endlini, uhlabe isifuyo, ulungise, ngoba lamadoda azakudla lami emini.
Yusuf nita Benyamin no aꞌa nara ma, ana denu malangga mana tao ues nae, “We! Mo atahori ia ra risiꞌ ume ngga. Mi tati sapi esa, fo nasu maladꞌa-maladꞌaꞌ. Te dei fo, ara raa reorenduꞌ ro au.”
17 Indoda yenza njengoba uJosefa etshilo, lendoda yawangenisa amadoda endlini kaJosefa.
Boe ma, malangga mana tao ues tao tungga Yusuf parenda na. De ana no se risiꞌ Yusuf ume na.
18 Amadoda asesesaba, ngoba engeniswe endlini kaJosefa; athi: Singenisiwe ngenxa yemali eyabuyiselwa emasakeni ethu kuqala, ukuze asijume ehlele phezu kwethu, asithathe sibe yizigqili, labobabhemi bethu.
Ara lao boe ma, aꞌa nara ramatau rala seli. Sia dalaꞌ taladꞌa na ara ola-olaꞌ rae, “We! Taꞌo bee de ana denu ro hita tisiꞌ ia. Seꞌu-seꞌu te nae tao naꞌasususaꞌ hita, huu doiꞌ fo ara tao baliꞌ sia hita karon na maꞌahulu na. Ara ro hita ia tema, fo aiboiꞌ ma, toꞌu hita, fo tao dadꞌi ate na. Ma rambas rala hita keledei nara.”
19 Asesondela endodeni eyayingumphathi wendlu kaJosefa, akhuluma kuyo emnyango wendlu,
Naa de, deka-deka Yusuf ume na ma, ara olaꞌ ro malangga mana tao ues a rae,
20 athi: Mayuyu nkosi yami! Sehla lokwehla kuqala ukuthenga ukudla.
“Ama! Hai moꞌe maꞌaf, te maꞌahulu na hai ima hasa nanaat sia ia ena boe.
21 Kwasekusithi sesifike endlini yezihambi, savula amasaka ethu, khangela-ke, imali yalowo lalowo yayisemlonyeni wesaka lakhe, imali yethu ngesisindo sayo; siyibuyisile esandleni sethu.
Hai baliꞌ kamboꞌ mi, de hai hahae mia dalaꞌ. Mae sungguꞌ ma, hai sefi karon fo mae hani banda ra. Naa te hai hambu baliꞌ esa-esaꞌ doiꞌ are mara, mia karon rala. Hai nda mihine seka mana tao neu naa sa. De ia naa, hai mendi baliꞌ basa doiꞌ naa ra. Dadꞌi amaꞌ afiꞌ mumunasa o. Hela fo amaꞌ nahine, ia naa hai o mendi doiꞌ lenaꞌ fo mae hasa seluꞌ nanaat feuꞌ.”
22 Sehle lenye imali layo esandleni sethu, ukuthenga ukudla. Kasazi ukuthi ngubani ofake imali yethu emasakeni ethu.
23 Wasesithi: Ukuthula kakube kini, lingesabi. UNkulunkulu wenu loNkulunkulu kayihlo ulinikile inotho emasakeni enu. Imali yenu yeza kimi. Wasemkhuphela kubo uSimeyoni.
Basa ma, malangga mana tao uesꞌ a nataa nae, “Hei neneꞌ a. Afiꞌ mimitau. Mbei ma hei Lamatualain ma, mana fee nggi papala-babꞌanggiꞌ sia karon naa ra. Faiꞌ naa, au simbo ala basa hei doi ma ena. Hei nda mihuta saa saꞌ boe!” Boe ma ana mboꞌi Simeon neu se.
24 Indoda yasiwangenisa amadoda endlini kaJosefa, yawanika amanzi; asegeza inyawo zawo; yasinika obabhemi bawo ukudla.
De basa se risiꞌ Yusuf ume na rala. Malangga mana tao ues a fee se oe safe ei nara. Ana o hani keledei nara boe.
25 Aselungisa isipho waze wafika uJosefa emini, ngoba ayezwile ukuthi bazakudla isinkwa lapho.
Boe ma, nafadꞌe nae, “Dei fo hei mia reorenduꞌ mo malangga.” Ara feꞌe rahati Yusuf nenema na ma, ara haꞌi memaꞌ lepa-ngges nara.
26 Kwathi uJosefa esefikile endlini, amlethela endlini isipho esasisesandleni sawo, amkhothamela emhlabathini.
Yusuf losa boe, basa se sendeꞌ lululangga nara sia mata na. Dei de, ara fee lepa-ngges ra reu e.
27 Wasewabuza impilo wathi: Uyaphila uyihlo yini, ixhegu elalikhuluma ngalo? Lisaphila yini?
Yusuf natane se nae, “Taꞌo bee? Basa hei malolole, do? Hei ama ma lasiꞌ naa, onaꞌ bee? Ana malole, do?”
28 Asesithi: Inceku yakho ubaba isekhona, isaphila. Asekhothamela phansi amkhonza.
Rataa rae, “Amaꞌ ate lasi ma, fo hai ama bꞌonggi ma, malolole.” Basa de, ara beꞌutee fee hadat neu e.
29 Wasephakamisa amehlo akhe, wabona uBhenjamini umfowabo, indodana kanina, wathi: Nguye lo umnawenu omncinyane yini elakhuluma ngaye kimi? Wathi futhi: UNkulunkulu kabe lomusa kuwe, ndodana yami.
Yusuf mete ndule basa se, de nita odꞌi na Benyamin. Ana nae, “Ooo! Ia eni, hei odꞌi muri ma fo hei dui faiꞌ naa, do?” Boe ma ana olaꞌ no Benyamin nae, “Ana ngge! Au hule-huleꞌ fo Lamatualain pala-banggi fee nggo papala-babꞌanggiꞌ naeꞌ.”
30 UJosefa wasephangisa, ngoba imibilini yakhe yatshisekela umfowabo; wadinga indawo yokukhala inyembezi; wangena ekamelweni eliphakathi, wakhala inyembezi khona.
Nita Benyamin ma, Yusuf naeꞌ a natudꞌu susue na ena. Huu ana sue odꞌi na nae na seli. Ana nda naeꞌ a naꞌatataaꞌ nala rala na sa ena. De ana lai-lai lao hela se, nisiꞌ kama na rala. Ana nggae mesuꞌudꞌu-faruka sia naa.
31 Esegezile ubuso bakhe, waphuma; esezibambile wathi: Fakani isinkwa.
Nggae basa, dei de neu narou mata na. Ana naꞌamamateꞌ rala na, de neu nandaa no se fai. Basa de, ana denu pagau nara reu ralalau mei a.
32 Bamfakela yedwa, lawo wodwa, lamaGibhithe, ayesidla laye, wodwa, ngoba amaGibhithe ayengedle isinkwa lamaHebheru, ngoba lokho kwakuyisinengiso kumaGibhithe.
Ara tao fee Yusuf naa mia mei mesaꞌ ne. Odi-aꞌa nara raa sia mei feaꞌ. Atahori Masir mana tao ues nara raa sia mei feaꞌ boe, huu atahori Masir ra melumudꞌu raa raꞌabꞌue ro atahori Ibrani ra.
33 Asehlala phambi kwakhe, izibulo njengobuzibulo balo, lecinathunjana njengobucinathunjana balo; amadoda asemangala enye kwenye.
Malangga mana tao ues a fee Yusuf odꞌi-aꞌa nara endoꞌ matambambaliꞌ ro e. Ana fee se endoꞌ teri-teri tungga sira too nara, mia aꞌaꞌ losa odꞌi muriꞌ a. Rita taꞌo naa ma, titindindi.
34 Wasewabela kulokhu okwakuphambi kwakhe; kodwa isabelo sikaBhenjamini saphindwa kahlanu okwedlula isabelo sawo wonke. Anatha asenatha kakhulu laye.
Yusuf denu pagau nara haꞌi nanaat fee odꞌi-aꞌa nara mia mei na. Basa se simbo ona-ona esaꞌ. Te ara tao fee Benyamin, lenaꞌ aꞌa nara lao lima. De basa se raa-rinu losa raꞌabeta.
