Uumama 42
1 Yaaqoob yommuu akka Gibxi keessa midhaan jiru dhagaʼetti, ilmaan isaatiin, “Isin maaliif wal ilaaltu?” jedhe.
Then Iaakob saw that there was foode in Egypt, and Iaakob said vnto his sonnes, Why gaze ye one vpon an other?
2 Itti fufees, “Kunoo ani akka Gibxi keessa midhaan jiru dhagaʼeera. Akka nu duʼa jalaa baanee jiraannuuf gad buʼaatii achii midhaan nuu bitaa” jedhe.
And he said, Behold, I haue heard that there is foode in Egypt, Get you downe thither, and bie vs foode thence, that we may liue and not die.
3 Obboloota Yoosef keessaa kudhan Gibxi keessaa midhaan bituuf gad buʼan.
So went Iosephs ten brethren downe to bye corne of the Egyptians.
4 Yaaqoob garuu balaatu isa irra gaʼa jedhee waan sodaateef obboleessa Yoosef Beniyaamin isaan wajjin hin ergine.
But Beniamin Iosephs brother woulde not Iaakob send with his brethren: for he saide, Least death should befall him.
5 Beelli biyya Kanaʼaan keessa waan tureef ilmaan Israaʼelis warra midhaan bitachuu dhaqan wajjin deeman.
And the sonnes of Israel came to bye foode among them that came: for there was famine in the land of Canaan.
6 Yoosefis bulchaa biyyattii kan uummata biyyattii hundatti midhaan gurguru ture. Obboloonni Yoosefis yommuu achi gaʼanitti fuula isaaniitiin lafatti gombifamanii sagadaniif.
Now Ioseph was gouerner of the land, who solde to all the people of the lande: then Iosephs brethren came, and bowed their face to the groud before him.
7 Yoosef akkuma obboloota isaa argeen isaan beeke; garuu akkuma nama isaan hin beekneetti afaan hamaa isaanitti dubbatee, “Isin eessaa dhuftan?” jedhee isaan gaafate. Jarris, “Midhaan bitachuuf jennee Kanaʼaanii dhufne” jedhanii deebisan.
And when Ioseph sawe his brethren, hee knewe them, and made himselfe straunge toward them, and spake to them roughly, and saide vnto them, Whence come yee? Who answered, Out of the land of Canaan, to bye vitaile.
8 Yoo Yoosef obboloota isaa beeke iyyuu jarri isa hin beekne.
(Now Ioseph knewe his brethren, but they knew not him.
9 Innis abjuu waaʼee isaanii abjoote sana yaadatee, “Isin basaastota dadhabbii biyyattii basaasuuf dhuftanii dha!” jedheen.
And Ioseph remembred the dreames, which he dreamed of them) and he sayde vnto them, Ye are spies, and are come to see the weaknesse of the land.
10 Isaan immoo akkana jedhanii deebisan; “Yaa gooftaa akkas miti; nu garboonni kee midhaan bitachuu dhufne.
But they sayde vnto him, Nay, my lorde, but to bye vitayle thy seruants are come.
11 Nu hundi ilmaan abbaa tokkoo ti; nu garboonni kee namoota amanamoo dha malee basaastota miti.”
Wee are all one mans sonnes: wee meane truely, and thy seruants are no spies.
12 Innis, “Akkas miti; isin dadhabbii biyyattii basaasuu dhuftan” jedheen.
But he saide vnto them, Nay, but yee are come to see the weakenes of the land.
13 Isaan garuu akkana jedhanii deebisan; “Nu garboonni kee obboloota kudha lama, ilmaanuma abbaa tokkoo kan biyya Kanaʼaan jiraatuu ti. Kunoo quxisuun hunda keenyaa amma abbaa keenya bira jira; inni tokko garuu hin jiru.”
And they said, We thy seruants are twelue brethren, the sonnes of one man in the lande of Canaan: and beholde, the yongest is this day with our father, and one is not.
14 Yoosef garuu akkana jedheen; “Akkuma ani isiniin jedhe sana isin basaastota!
Againe Ioseph sayde vnto them, This is it that I spake vnto you, saying, Ye are spies.
15 Akki isin ittiin qoramtan kana; ani maqaa Faraʼooniin nan kakadha; yoo obboleessi keessan quxisuun sun as dhufe malee isin asii hin sochootan.
Hereby ye shall be proued: by the life of Pharaoh, ye shall not goe hence, except your yongest brother come hither.
16 Akka inni dhaqee obboleessa keessan fiduuf of keessaa nama tokko ergaa; isin warri haftan immoo mana hidhaatti galfamtu; akkasiinis dubbiin keessan qoratamee akka dhugaa taʼee fi akka dhugaa hin taʼin ni ilaalama; yoo kanaa achii, ani maqaa Faraʼooniin nan kakadha; isin dhugumaan basaastota!”
Send one of you which may fet your brother, and ye shall be kept in prison, that your words may be proued, whether there bee trueth in you: or els by the life of Pharaoh ye are but spies.
17 Innis hunda isaanii guyyaa sadii mana hidhaa keessa turse.
So he put them in warde three dayes.
18 Guyyaa sadaffaatti Yoosef akkana isaaniin jedhe; “Isin waan kana godhaa; ni jiraattu; ani Waaqa nan sodaadhaatii.
Then Ioseph said vnto them the third day, This do, and liue: for I feare God.
19 Isin yoo namoota amanamoo taatan obboloota keessan keessaa tokko as mana hidhaa haa turu; warri kaan garuu deemaa; maatii keessan kanneen beelaʼaniif midhaan geessaa.
If ye be true men, let one of your brethren be bounde in your prison house, and goe ye, carie foode for the famine of your houses:
20 Garuu obboleessa keessan quxisuu naa fidaa; akkasiin dubbiin keessan ni mirkaneeffama; isinis hin duutan.” Isaanis akkasuma godhan.
But bring your yonger brother vnto me, that your wordes may be tried, and that ye dye not: and they did so.
21 Isaanis akkana waliin jedhan; “Nu dhugumaan sababii obboleessa keenyaatiif adabamaa jirra. Yeroo inni nu kadhatetti lubbuun isaa hammam akka dhiphachaa turte argineerra; nu garuu isa dhagaʼuu didne; dhiphinni kun kanaaf nutti dhufe.”
And they said one to another, We haue verily sinned against our brother, in that we sawe the anguish of his soule, when he besought vs, and we would not heare him: therefore is this trouble come vpon vs.
22 Ruubeen immoo, “Ani, ‘Gurbaa kana hin miidhinaa’ jedhee isinitti hin himnee? Isin garuu na dhagaʼuu diddan! Kunoo nu dhiiga isaatti ni gaafatamna” jedhe.
And Reuben answered them, saying, Warned I not you, saying, Sinne not against the childe, and ye would not heare? and lo, his blood is now required.
23 Sababii Yoosef karaa nama afaan hiikuutiin isaanitti dubbachaa tureef isaan akka inni waan isaan dubbatan hubatu hin beekne.
(And they were not aware that Ioseph vnderstoode them: for he spake vnto them by an interpreter.)
24 Yoosef achi isaan irraa garagalee booʼuu jalqabe; ergasii immoo isaanitti garagalee isaanitti dubbate. Simiʼooninis isaan keessaa baasisee fuuluma isaanii duratti hiisise.
Then he turned from them, and wept, and turned to them againe, and communed with them, and tooke Simeon from among them, and bounde him before their eyes.
25 Yoosef akka qalqalloo isaaniitti midhaan guutaniif, akka meetii tokkoo tokkoo isaanii deebisanii qalqalloo isaanii keessa isaaniif kaaʼanii fi akka karaa isaaniitiif galaa isaaniif kennan ajaje. Erga wanni kun isaaniif godhamee booddee
So Ioseph commanded that they should fill their sackes with wheate, and put euery mans money againe in his sacke, and giue them vitaile for the iourney: and thus did he vnto them.
26 jarri midhaan isaanii harroota isaaniitti feʼatanii qajeelan.
And they layed their vitaile vpon their asses, and departed thence.
27 Isaan keessaa inni tokko iddoo bulanitti harree isaatiif nyaata kennuuf jedhee qalqalloo isaa bane; kunoo afaan qalqalloo keessattis meetii isaa argate.
And as one of them opened his sacke for to giue his asse prouender in the ynne, he espyed his money: for lo, it was in his sackes mouth.
28 Innis obboloota isaatiin, “Meetiin koo naa deebiʼeera; kunoo qalqalloo koo keessa jira” jedhe. Kana irratti isaan naʼanii walitti garagalanii hollachaa, “Wanni Waaqni nutti hojjete kun maali?” jedhan.
Then he sayde vnto his brethren, My money is restored: for loe, it is euen in my sacke. And their heart fayled them, and they were astonished, and sayde one to another, What is this, that God hath done vnto vs?
29 Isaanis gara biyya Kanaʼaan abbaa isaanii Yaaqoob bira dhufanii waan isaan irra gaʼe hunda isatti himan; akkanas jedhan;
And they came vnto Iaakob their father vnto the lande of Canaan, and tolde him all that had befallen them, saying,
30 “Namichi gooftaa biyya sanaa taʼe afaan hamaa nutti dubbatee akka waan nu biyyattii basaasuu dhaqneetti nu lakkaaʼe.
The man, who is Lord of the lande, spake roughly to vs, and put vs in prison as spyes of the countrey.
31 Nu garuu akkana jenneen; ‘Nu namoota amanamoo dha malee basaastota miti.
And we sayd vnto him, We are true men, and are no spies.
32 Nu obboloota kudha lama ilmaanuma abbaa tokkoo ti; inni tokko hin jiru; quxisuun hunda keenyaa immoo abbaa keenya bira biyya Kanaʼaan jira.’
We be twelue brethren, sonnes of our father: one is not, and the yongest is this day with our father in the land of Canaan.
33 “Namichi gooftaa biyya sanaa taʼe immoo akkana nuun jedhe; ‘Akki ani akka isin namoota amanamoo taatanii fi hin taʼin ittiin beeku kana; obboloota keessan keessaa isa tokko as na biratti dhiisaatii maatii keessan kan beelaʼaniif midhaan geessaa.
Then the Lord of the countrey sayde vnto vs, Hereby shall I knowe if ye be true men: Leaue one of your brethren with me, and take foode for the famine of your houses and depart,
34 Garuu akka ani akka isin namoota amanamoo malee basaastota hin taʼin beekuuf obboleessa keessan isa quxisuu sana naa fidaa. Ergasii ani obboleessa keessan deebisee isinii kenna; isinis biyya kana keessatti daldalachuu ni dandeessu.’”
And bring your yongest brother vnto me, that I may knowe that ye are no spies, but true men: so will I deliuer you your brother, and yee shall occupie in the land.
35 Yommuu isaan qalqalloo isaanii keessaa midhaan garagalchanitti, kunoo meetiin tokkoo tokkoo isaanii hidhaa hidhaan qalqalloo isaanii keessa ture. Isaanii fi abbaan isaanii yeroo meetii hidhame sana arganitti ni rifatan.
And as they emptied their sacks, behold, euery mans bundel of money was in his sacke: and when they and their father sawe the bundels of their money, they were afrayde.
36 Abbaan isaanii Yaaqoobis, “Isin ijoollee koo na dhabsiiftan. Yoosef hin jiru; Simiʼoonis hin jiru. Amma immoo Beniyaamin fudhachuu barbaaddu. Wanni hundi natti hammaateera!” jedheen.
Then Iaakob their father said to them, Ye haue robbed me of my children: Ioseph is not, and Simeon is not, and ye will take Beniamin: all these things are against me.
37 Ruubeen immoo abbaa isaatiin, “Yoo ani deebisee isa siif fiduu baadhe ilmaan koo lamaan ajjeesuu ni dandeessa; isa imaanaa natti kenni; ani deebisee isa nan fida” jedhe.
Then Reuben answered his father, saying, Slay my two sonnes, if I bring him not to thee againe: deliuer him to mine hand, and I will bring him to thee againe.
38 Yaaqoob garuu akkana jedhe; “Ilmi koo isin wajjin achi gad hin buʼu; obboleessi isaa duʼeera; isa qofatu hafe. Yoo karaa keessan irratti balaan isa irra gaʼe, isin akka arriin koo gaddaan awwaala seenu gootu.” (Sheol h7585)
But he said, My sonne shall not go downe with you: for his brother is dead, and he is left alone: if death come vnto him by the way which ye goe, then ye shall bring my gray head with sorow vnto the graue. (Sheol h7585)
