< UGenesisi 47 >
1 UJosefa wasesiza wambikela uFaro wathi: Ubaba labafowethu lezimvu zabo lenkomo zabo lakho konke abalakho bavele elizweni leKhanani, khangela-ke, baselizweni leGosheni.
Te phoeiah Joseph cet tih Pharaoh taengah, “A pa neh ka manuca rhoek khaw, a boiva khaw, a saelhung khaw, amah taengkah aka om boeih te Kanaan kho lamkah halo uh tih Goshen kho ah om uh ke,” a ti nah tih a puen pah.
2 Wasethatha ingxenye yabafowabo, amadoda amahlanu, wawamisa phambi kukaFaro.
Te phoeiah a manuca khui kah hlang panga a khuen tih Pharaoh hmai ah a khueh.
3 UFaro wasesithi kubafowabo: Iyini imisebenzi yenu? Basebesithi kuFaro: Izinceku zakho zingabelusi bezimvu, thina sonke labobaba.
Te vaengah Pharaoh loh Joseph kah a manuca rhoek te, “Nangmih kah bibi te balae,” a ti nah hatah amih loh Pharaoh la, “Na sal rhoek he kamamih khaw, a pa rhoek long khaw boiva ni ka dawn uh,” a ti nauh.
4 Bathi futhi kuFaro: Sizehlala njengabezizwe elizweni; ngoba kakuladlelo lemihlambi inceku zakho ezilayo, ngoba indlala inzima elizweni leKhanani. Khathesi-ke, inceku zakho ake zihlale elizweni leGosheni.
Te phoeiah Pharaoh la, “Kanaan kho ah khokha tlung tih na sal rhoek kah boiva ham a luemnah a om pawt dongah hekah khohmuen ah bakuep ham ka lo uh. Te dongah na sal rhoek he Goshen kho ah kho n'sak sak uh mai,” a ti nauh.
5 UFaro wasekhuluma kuJosefa esithi: Uyihlo labafowenu sebeze kuwe.
Te dongah Pharaoh loh Joseph la, “Na pa neh na manuca rhoek nang taengah aka lo rhoek te,
6 Ilizwe leGibhithe liphambi kwakho; hlalisa uyihlo labafowenu ebuhleni belizwe, kabahlale elizweni leGosheni; futhi uba usazi ukuthi kukhona phakathi kwabo amadoda azingcitshi, uwabeke abe zinduna zezifuyo phezu kwengilakho.
'Na hmai kah Egypt kho khuikah khohmuen then Goshen kho ah na pa neh na manuca rhoek te khosak sak. Te phoeiah amih khuikah tatthai hlang rhoek te na ming atah amih te kai kah boiva mangpa la khueh,” a ti nah tih a uen.
7 UJosefa waseletha uJakobe uyise, wammisa phambi kukaFaro; uJakobe wasembusisa uFaro.
Te phoeiah Joseph loh a napa Jakob te a khuen tih Pharaoh hmai ah a pai sak hatah Jakob loh Pharaoh te yoethen a paek.
8 UFaro wasesithi kuJakobe: Mangaki amalanga eminyaka yempilo yakho?
Te vaengah Pharaoh loh Jakob la, “Nang kah hingnah a kum khohnin loh meyet a lo van coeng,” a ti nah.
9 UJakobe wasesithi kuFaro: Amalanga eminyaka yobuhambuma bami ayiminyaka elikhulu lamatshumi amathathu; abemalutshwana emabi amalanga eminyaka yempilo yami, futhi kawafinyelelanga emalangeni eminyaka yempilo yabobaba ensukwini zobuhambuma babo.
Te dongah Jakob loh Pharaoh la, “Ka lampahnah kum khohnin he kum pasoi neh thumkip vel a pha coeng. Tedae ka hingnah kum khohnin he yoethae yoehu la om tih a pa rhoek a lampahnah tue vaengkah a hingnah kum khohnin te a pha moenih,” a ti nah.
10 UJakobe wasebusisa uFaro, waphuma esuka ebusweni bukaFaro.
Te phoeiah Jakob loh Pharaoh te yoethen a paek tih Pharaoh taeng lamkah pahoi nong.
11 UJosefa wabahlalisa oyise labafowabo, wabapha isabelo elizweni leGibhithe, ebuhleni belizwe kulalo lonke, emkhonweni iRamesesi njengoba uFaro elayile.
Te phoeiah Pharaoh kah a uen vanbangla Joseph loh a napa neh a manuca rhoek te Egypt kho ah khohut pakhat a paek tih khohmuen then Raameses kho ah kho a sak sak.
12 UJosefa wasebondla oyise labafowabo lendlu yonke kayise ngesinkwa, ngokomlomo wabantwanyana.
Te dongah Joseph loh a napa neh a manuca rhoek khaw, a napa imkhui boeih neh camoe ka dongkah caak ham khaw a cangbam pah.
13 Njalo kwakungelakudla elizweni lonke, ngoba indlala yayinzima kakhulu; lelizwe leGibhithe lelizwe leKhanani aphela amandla ngendlala.
Tedae khokha bahoeng tlung tih Egypt kho neh Kanaan kho te khokha loh a khah dongah kho takuem ah caak om pawh.
14 UJosefa wasebutha yonke imali eyatholakala elizweni leGibhithe lelizweni leKhanani, yamabele ababewathenga; uJosefa waseletha imali endlini kaFaro.
Te vaengah Joseph loh Egypt khohmuen neh Kanaan kho ah cangtham a lai ham rhoek kah tangka a hmuh te boeih a coi. Te phoeiah Joseph loh tangka te Pharaoh im la a khuen.
15 Kwathi imali isiphelile elizweni leGibhithe lelizweni leKhanani, wonke amaGibhithe eza kuJosefa esithi: Siphe ukudla; ngoba sizafelani phambi kwakho? Ngoba isiphelile imali.
Tedae Egypt kho neh Kanaan kho kah tangka te a khawk uh vaengah Egypt rhoek loh Joseph te boeih a paan uh tih, “Kaimih he caak m'pae laeh. Tangka ka khawk uh cakhaw ba ham lae nang hmaiah ka duek uh eh?,” a ti uh.
16 UJosefa wasesithi: Lethani izifuyo zenu; njalo ngizalinika ngezifuyo zenu, uba imali isiphelile.
Tedae Joseph loh, “Tangka a boeih oeh atah na boiva te m'pae uh lamtah nangmih kah boiva te kan khueh mako,” a ti nah.
17 Basebeletha izifuyo zabo kuJosefa; uJosefa wasebanika ukudla ngamabhiza langemfuyo yezimvu langemfuyo yenkomo langabobabhemi. Wasebondla ngokudla ngezifuyo zabo zonke ngalowomnyaka.
Te dongah amamih kah boiva te Joseph taengla a khuen uh tih Joseph loh marhang khaw, boiva tuping khaw, saelhung boiva khaw, laak ham khaw caak a paek pah tih tekah kum ah ngawn tah amih kah boiva boeih te khaw caak neh a khool.
18 Kwathi usuphelile lowomnyaka, beza kuye ngomnyaka wesibili, bathi kuye: Kasiyikuyifihlela inkosi yethu ukuthi, njengoba imali isiphelile, lemfuyo yezifuyo isingeyenkosi yethu, kakukho okuseleyo phambi kwenkosi yethu, ngaphandle kwemizimba yethu lamasimu ethu.
Tedae tekah kum thok tih a kum bae atah Egypt rhoek loh Joseph taengla halo uh tih, “Ka boeipa taengah ka phah uh moenih. Tangka khaw boeih coeng tih boiva neh rhamsa loh ka boeipa taeng a pha coeng dongah kaimih pum neh ka khohmuen pawt atah ka boeipa hmai ah a paih om voelpawh.
19 Sizafelani phambi kwamehlo akho, thina sonke lamasimu ethu? Sithenge lamasimu ethu ngokudla, thina-ke lamasimu ethu sibe zinceku zikaFaro; njalo siphe inhlanyelo ukuze siphile singafi, lokuthi umhlabathi ungalobi.
ba ham lae nang mikhmuh ah ka duek uh eh. Kaimih he khaw, ka khohmuen he khaw n'lai uh. Kaimih khaw ka khohmuen khaw caak neh ka thung coeng atah kamamih neh ka khohmuen loh Pharaoh sal la ka om uh bitni. Tedae cangti nan paek tih ka hing uh daengah man ka duek uh pawt sui tih tolrhum loh a pong pawt sue,” a ti uh.
20 UJosefa wasemthengela uFaro ilizwe lonke leGibhithe, ngoba amaGibhithe athengisa ngulowo lalowo insimu yakhe, ngoba indlala yayilamandla phezu kwabo; lelizwe laba ngelikaFaro.
Tedae khokha te amih taengah a tlung pah vaengah Egypt rhoek loh a khohmuen rhip a yoih uh tih Egypt kho pum te Pharaoh ham Joseph loh a lai pah coeng dongah Pharaoh kah khohmuen la poeh.
21 Njalo mayelana labantu, wabasusa baya emizini, kusukela ekupheleni komunye umngcele weGibhithe kusiya ekupheleni komunye wayo.
Te dongah Egypt khorhi a bawt neh a khat ben lamkah pilnam te amah loh khopuei khuila a puen.
22 Kuphela ilizwe labapristi kalithenganga, ngoba abapristi balesabelo kuFaro, badla isabelo sabo uFaro ayebanika sona; ngakho kabathengisanga ilizwe labo.
Tedae khosoih rhoek kah khohmuen ngawn tah Pharaoh loh khosoih rhoek ham a paek khotlueh la a om dongah lai van pawh. Te vaengah khosoih rhoek loh Pharaoh kah a paek khotlueh te a caak uh tih a khohmuen te yoi uh pawh.
23 UJosefa wasesithi ebantwini: Khangelani, lamuhla ngilithengele uFaro lelizwe lenu; khangelani kulenhlanyelo yenu njalo lizahlanyela ensimini.
Te phoeiah Joseph loh a pilnam la, “Tihnin ah namamih khaw, na khohmuen khaw Pharaoh ham ka lai coeng he. Tedae cangti he namamih ham lo uh lamtah khohmuen te tawn uh ngawn.
24 Kuzakuthi-ke esivunweni limnike uFaro ingxenye yesihlanu, lengxenye ezine zibe ngezenu, kube yinhlanyelo yensimu lokudla kwenu lokwabasemizini yenu, lokudla kwabantwanyana benu.
A vuei a thaih a om vaengah panga te Pharaoh taengah pae uh lamtah pali te namamih ham neh lohma kah cangti la, namah cako a caak ham neh na ca rhoek loh a caak ham khaw om saeh,” a ti nah.
25 Basebesithi: Usindise impilo yethu; asithole umusa emehlweni enkosi yami, njalo sizakuba yizigqili zikaFaro.
Te vaengah, “Ka boeipa kah mikhmuh ah mikdaithen la m'hmuh uh tih mamih n'hlun atah Pharaoh taengah sal la ka om uh bitni,” a ti uh.
26 UJosefa wasekumisa kwaba ngumthetho kuze kube lamuhla, phezu kwelizwe leGibhithe, ukuthi ingxenye yesihlanu izakuba ngekaFaro; ngaphandle kwelizwe labapristi lodwa elingeyisilo likaFaro.
Te dongah Joseph loh a khueh oltlueh vanbangla tahae khohnin duela Egypt kho ah hlopnga te Pharaoh hut la om. Khosoih rhoek kah khohmuen bueng te amamih loh a hutnah tih Pharaoh hut la om pawh.
27 UIsrayeli wasehlala elizweni leGibhithe, elizweni leGosheni; bazizuzela imfuyo kulo, bazala, banda kakhulu.
Te vaengah Israel loh Egypt kho kah Goshen khohmuen ah kho a sak tih a kawt la a kawt dongah pungtai uh tih muep ping uh.
28 UJakobe wasephila elizweni leGibhithe iminyaka elitshumi lesikhombisa; ngakho insuku zikaJakobe, iminyaka yempilo yakhe, yayiyiminyaka elikhulu lamatshumi amane lesikhombisa.
Jakob khaw Egypt kho ah kum hlai rhih hing tih Jakob kah a hingnah kum khohnin long khaw kum pasoi likip neh kum rhih lo coeng.
29 Kwathi sekusondele insuku zikaIsrayeli ukuthi afe, wabiza indodana yakhe uJosefa, wathi kuye: Uba-ke ngithole umusa emehlweni akho, ake ubeke isandla sakho ngaphansi kwethangazi lami, ungenzele umusa leqiniso; ngicela ungangingcwabi eGibhithe;
Te vaengah Isreal kah a duek ham khohnin loh a yoei coeng dongah a capa Joseph te a khue tih, “Nang mikhmuh ah mikdaithen ni ka dang atah ka phai hmuiah na kut tloeng laeh. Sitlohnah neh uepomnah khaw Kai ham na saii atah kai he Egypt kho n'up boel mai.
30 kodwa akuthi ngilale labobaba, ngakho uzangithwala ungisuse eGibhithe, ungingcwabe engcwabeni labo. Wasesithi: Mina ngizakwenza njengokwelizwi lakho.
Te phoeiah a pa rhoek taengah ka yalh atah kai he Egypt lamkah nan khuen vetih amih kah phuel ah nan up ni,” a ti nah hatah, “Na ol bangla kamah loh ka saii bitni,” a ti nah.
31 Wasesithi: Funga kimi. Wasefunga kuye. UIsrayeli wasekhothamela phezu kwesihloko sombheda.
Te vaengah, “Kamah taengah toemngam dae,” a ti nah hatah a toemngam tih Israel te baiphaih dongkah a lu taengah bakop.
