Uumama 43
1 Amma illee beelli biyyattiitti baayʼee hammaatee ture.
Indlala yayilokhu inkulu kakhulu elizweni.
2 Erga isaan midhaan biyya Gibxiitii fidan sana nyaatanii fixanii booddee abbaan isaanii, “Ammas dhaqaatii midhaan xinnoo dabalaa nuu bitaa” jedheen.
Ngakho kwathi sebekuqedile konke ukudla ababekuthenge eGibhithe, uyise wathi kubo, “Buyelani liyesithengela njalo okunye ukudla okunenganyana.”
3 Yihuudaan immoo akkana isaan jedhe; “Namichi sun, ‘Yoo obboleessi keessan isin wajjin dhufe malee isin lammata ija koo hin argitan’ jedhee of eeggannoo cimaa nuu kenne.
Kodwa uJuda wathi kuye, “Indoda leyo yasiqonqosela yathi, ‘Ngeke liphinde libubone ubuso bami ngaphandle kokuba lilomnawenu.’
4 Yoo ati obboleessa keenya nu wajjin ergite nu dhaqnee midhaan siif binna.
Nxa uzamvumela umnawethu ukuthi sihambe laye, sizahamba siyekuthengela ukudla.
5 Sababii namichi sun, ‘Yoo obboleessi keessan isin wajjin dhufe malee isin lammata ija koo hin argitan’ nuun jedheef, yoo ati isa ergite malee nu gad hin buunu.”
Kodwa nxa ungezukuvuma, ngeke sibuyele, ngoba phela indoda leyo yathi kithi, ‘Ngeke liphinde libubone ubuso bami nxa umnawenu lingelaye.’”
6 Israaʼel immoo, “Isin maaliif akka obboleessa biraa qabdan namichatti himuudhaan rakkina natti fiddan?” jedhee gaafate.
U-Israyeli wabuza wathi, “Likwenzeleni lina ukungehlisela uhlupho lolu ngokuyitshela indoda leyo ukuthi lilomnawenu na?”
7 Isaanis akkana jedhanii deebisan; “Namichi waaʼee mataa keenyaatii fi waaʼee maatii keenyaa jabeessee nu gaafate. Innis, ‘Abbaan keessan amma iyyuu jiraa? Obboleessa biraa qabduu?’ jedhee nu gaafate; nu gaaffiidhuma isaa deebifneef. Yoos akka inni, ‘Obboleessa keessan as fidaa’ nuun jedhu akkamiin beekuu dandeenya ree?”
Baphendula bathi, “Leyondoda isibuzisisile ngathi langendlu yangakithi yathi, ‘Uyihlo usaphila na? Lilaye na omunye umfowenu?’ Thina besiphendula imibuzo yayo kuphela. Sasingazi kanjani ukuthi yayizakuthi, ‘Mletheni umnawenu lapha’?”
8 Yihuudaanis abbaa isaa Israaʼeliin akkana jedhe; “Akka nu, atii fi ijoolleen keenya duʼa jalaa baanee jiraannuuf gurbicha na wajjin ergi; nu kaanee deemnaatii.
UJuda wasesithi ku-Israyeli uyise, “Wothi umfana ahambe lami, sizahle sisuke nje masinyane, ukwenzela ukuthi thina lawe kanye labantwabethu siphile, singafi.
9 Ani wabii isaafin taʼa; waaʼee isaas anuma mataa koo gaafachuu ni dandeessa. Yoo ani deebisee isa siif fidee fuula kee dura dhaabuu baadhe, ani bara jireenya koo guutuu fuula kee duratti balleessaa kanatti nan gaafatama.
Mina ngokwami ngizazinikela ngokuphepha kwakhe; umlandu wonke ngaye awubekwe phezu kwami. Nxa ngingambuyisi kuwe ngimbeke phambi kwakho, ngizakuba lecala kuwe impilo yami yonke.
10 Utuu turuu baannee silaa yoona yeroo lama dhaqnee deebineerra ture.”
Njengoba kunje nje, aluba asizilingananga ngabe sesihambe saphenduka kwaze kwaba kabili.”
11 Kana irratti abbaan isaanii Israaʼel akkana isaaniin jedhe; “Erga akkas taʼee waan kana godhaa; oomisha biyya kanaa filatamaa keessaa kennaa tokko tokko jechuunis haphee dibatan xinnoo ishee, damma xinnaa isaa, urgooftuu fi qumbii xinnoo ishee, ocholoonii fi lawuzii xinnoo ishee geessaatii namichaaf kennaa.
Ngakho uyise u-Israyeli wasesithi kubo, “Nxa kumele kube njalo, yenzani lokhu: Fakani emasakeni enu ezinye izinto ezinhle kakhulu eziphuma kulelilizwe lihambe lazo kulowomuntu zibe yisipho, amagcobo okuthambisa loluju, iziyoliso ezithile lemure, izilimo ezicacadwayo zephistakhiyo le-alimondi.
12 Isin waan meetii afaan qalqalloo keessanii keessa kaaʼamee isinii deebiʼe sana deebisuu qabdaniif meetii sana harka lama fudhadhaatii deemaa; meetiin sun dogoggoraan dhufe taʼaatii.
Thathani isiliva esiphindwe kabili, ngoba kufanele libuyisele lesosiliva esasibuyiselwe emasakeni enu. Mhlawumbe kwaba yisiphosiso.
13 Obboleessa keessanis fudhadhaatii dafaa gara namichaatti deebiʼaa.
Mthatheni umnawenu laye libuyele kuleyondoda ngokuphangisa.
14 Akka inni obboleessa keessan kaanii fi Beniyaam illee isin wajjin deebisee erguuf Waaqni Waan Hunda Dandaʼu akka namichi garaa isinii laafu haa godhu. Ani yoo ijoollee dhabe illee ijoollee nan dhaba.”
Sengathi uNkulunkulu uSomandla angalenzela umusa kuleyondoda ukuze ivumele omunye umfowenu kanye loBhenjamini baphenduke lani. Mina ngokwami ngithi, kambe okungayisikufa yikuphi!”
15 Namoonni sunis kennaawwan sana, meetii sana harka lamaa fi Beniyaaminis fudhatanii ariitiidhaan Gibxitti gad buʼanii fuula Yoosef dura dhadhaabatan.
Ngakho amadoda athatha izipho lesiliva esiphindwe kabili kanye loBhenjamini. Batshitsha baya eGibhithe bayazibika kuJosefa.
16 Yoosefis yommuu Beniyaamin isaan biratti argetti hangafa hojjettoota mana isaatiin, “Namoota kana mana kootti geessi; horii tokko qalii nyaata qopheessi; isaan saʼaatii jaʼatti na wajjin nyaatuutii” jedhe.
Kwathi uJosefa ebona uBhenjamini ekanye labo, wathi encekwini yendlu yakhe, “Hamba lamadoda la endlini yami, uwahlabele isifuyo ulungise ukudla; bazakudla lami emini.”
17 Namichi sunis akkuma Yoosef isa ajaje godhe; jara sanas mana Yoosefitti geesse.
Indoda yenza njengokutshelwa kwayo nguJosefa, yawathatha amadoda yahamba lawo endlini kaJosefa.
18 Namoonni sun yeroo mana Yoosefitti geeffamanitti sodaatanii akkana jedhan; “Nu sababii meetii yeroo jalqabaa deebiʼee afaan qalqalloo keenyaa keessatti argame sanaatiif as fidamne; inni nu rukutee, nu moʼatee, akka garbootaatti nu qabatee harroota keenya fudhachuu barbaada.”
Amadoda ethuka ebona elethwa endlini kaJosefa. Bacabanga ukuthi, “Silethwe lapha ngenxa yesiliva esabuyiselwa emasakeni ethu ekufikeni kwethu kwakuqala. Ufuna ukusihlasela asehlule, abesesithumba sibe yizigqili athathe obabhemi bethu.”
19 Kanaafuu jarri gara hangafa hojjettoota Yoosefitti ol baʼanii balbala manaa duratti itti dubbatan.
Ngakho baya encekwini kaJosefa bayakhuluma laye entubeni eya endlini.
20 Akkanas jedhan; “Yaa gooftaa, nu yeroo jalqabaa midhaan bitachuuf as gad buunee turre.
Bathi, “Ake usizwe, nkosi yethu: Safika lapha kuqala sizothenga ukudla.
21 Nus yeroo iddoo bullu geenyee qalqalloo keenya bannetti tokkoon tokkoon keenya afaan qalqalloo keenyaa keessatti meetii keenya akkuma jirutti arganne. Kanaafuu meetii sana deebifnee fidnee dhufneerra.
Kodwa lapho esaphumula khona ebusuku savula amasaka ethu, kwaba ngulowo wethu wafumana isiliva sakhe, siphelele ubunzima baso, sisemlonyeni wesaka lakhe. Ngakho size laso.
22 Meetii biraas ittiin midhaan bitachuuf fidnee dhufneerra. Eenyu akka meetii keenya qalqalloo keenya keessa nuu kaaʼes hin beeknu.”
Size lesinye isiliva phezu kwaleso ukuthi sithenge ukudla. Kasikwazi ukuthi ngubani owabuyisela isiliva emasakeni ethu.”
23 Innis deebisee, “Homaa miti; hin sodaatinaa. Waaqni keessan, Waaqni abbaa keessanii qalqalloo keessanitti badhaadhummaa isinii naqeera; meetiin keessan na gaʼee jira” jedheen. Ergasiis Simiʼoonin gara isaaniitti gad baase.
Wathi, “Kulungile. Lingesabi. UNkulunkulu wenu, uNkulunkulu kayihlo, uliphile inotho emasakeni enu; mina ngasiphiwa isiliva senu.” Emva kwalokho waseletha uSimiyoni kubo.
24 Hangafni hojjettootaa sunis jara sana mana Yoosefitti geessee akka isaan miilla isaanii dhiqataniif bishaan kenneef; harroota isaaniitiif immoo okaa kenne.
Inceku yasiwangenisa amadoda endlini kaJosefa, yawapha amanzi okugeza inyawo zawo, yaletha lotshani babobabhemi bawo.
25 Isaanis achitti akka nyaatan waan dhagaʼaniif dhufaatii Yoosef kan saʼaatii jaʼaatiif kennaa isaanii qopheeffatan.
Balungisa izipho zabo balindela ukufika kukaJosefa emini ngoba basebezwile ukuthi babezakudla khonapho.
26 Yeroo Yoosef manatti galetti isaan kennaa manatti ol galchanii turan sana kennaniif; fuula isaa durattis lafatti gombifamanii harka fuudhan.
UJosefa esefikile bethula izipho ababengene lazo endlini, njalo bakhothama kuye phansi.
27 Innis nagaa isaan gaafatee, “Abbaan keessan jaarsi isin waaʼee isaa natti himtan sun akkam? Inni amma iyyuu jiraa?” jedheen.
Wababuza ukuphila, wasesithi, “Linjani ixhegu elinguyihlo elangitshela ngalo? Lilokhu lisaphila na?”
28 Jarris, “Tajaajilaan kee abbaan keenya amma iyyuu ni jira; nagumas” jedhanii deebisan. Ulfina isaaf kennuufis gad jedhan.
Baphendula bathi, “Inceku yakho, ubaba, ulokhu esaphila njalo usaqinile.” Bakhothama njalo betshengisa inhlonipho.
29 Innis ol ilaalee obboleessa isaa, ilma haadha isaa Beniyaamin argee, “Inni kun obboleessa keessan quxisuu isin waaʼee isaa natti himtan sanaa?” jedhee gaafate. Itti fufees, “Ilma ko, Waaqni si haa eebbisu” jedheen.
Wathi elokhu ebakhangela wabona umnawakhe uBhenjamini, umntakanina sibili, wabuza wathi, “Nguye lo umnawenu olicinathunjana na, lowo elangitshela ngaye?” Wasesithi kuye, “UNkulunkulu kabe lomusa kuwe, ndodana yami.”
30 Yoosef yommuu obboleessa isaa argetti garaan raafamee dafee gad baʼe; booʼuu barbaadees kutaa mana isaa seenee achitti booʼe.
Wathinteka kakhulu ngokubona umnawakhe, uJosefa waphangisa waphuma wayafuna indawo yokukhala. Waya ekamelweni lakhe wayakhalela khona.
31 Ergasiis fuula isaa dhiqatee gad baʼe; of jajjabeessees, “Nyaanni haa dhiʼaatu” jedhe.
Wathi esegezile amehlo waphuma, wazibamba, wasesithi, “Phakululani ukudla.”
32 Jarris sababii warri Gibxi Ibroota wajjin hin nyaanneef Yoosefiif kophaatti, obboloota isaatiif kophaatti, warra Gibxi kanneen isa wajjin nyaataniifis kophaatti dhiʼeessan; Ibroota wajjin nyaachuun warra Gibxi biratti jibbisiisaa tureetii.
Yena bamupha yedwa, abafowabo labo bodwa, kwathi lamaGibhithe ayesidla laye lawo aba wodwa, ngoba amaGibhithe ayengeke adla lamaHebheru, ngoba lokho kwakunengeka kumaGibhithe.
33 Namoonni sunis akkuma umurii isaaniitti hangafaa jalqabanii hamma quxisuutti fuula isaa dura tataaʼanii dinqifatanii wal ilaalan.
Amadoda la ayehlezi ngobudala bawo kuqala ngezibulo kusiyacina ngecinathunjana; bakhangelana bemangele.
34 Maaddii Yoosef irraas nyaanni qoodameef; qoodni Beniyaam garuu qooda tokko tokko isaaniitiif kenname dachaa shan taʼa ture. Jarris akkasiin Yoosef wajjin dhuganii itti hoʼe.
Kwakusithi nxa bephakelwa kusuka etafuleni likaJosefa, isabelo sikaBhenjamini sasisedluliswa kahlanu kwesabanye. Ngakho bazitika banatha laye bekhululekile.
