< Uumama 45 >
1 Kana irratti Yoosef namoota hunda duratti of qabuu dadhabee, “Namoota hunda fuula koo duraa gad yaasaa!” jedhee iyye. Kanaaf yommuu Yoosef obboloota isaatti of beeksisetti namni tokko iyyuu isa bira hin turre.
Then Joseph couldn’t control himself before all those who stood before him, and he called out, “Cause everyone to go out from me!” No one else stood with him, while Joseph made himself known to his brothers.
2 Sababii inni guddisee booʼeef warri Gibxi ni dhagaʼan; warra masaraa Faraʼoon birattis ni dhagaʼame.
He wept aloud. The Egyptians heard, and the house of Pharaoh heard.
3 Yoosefis obboloota isaatiin, “Ani Yoosef; abbaan koo amma iyyuu jiraa?” jedhee gaafate. Obboloonni isaa garuu sababii fuula isaa duratti naʼanii turaniif deebii isaaf kennuu hin dandeenye.
Joseph said to his brothers, “I am Joseph! Does my father still live?” His brothers couldn’t answer him; for they were terrified at his presence.
4 Yoosefis obboloota isaatiin, “Mee as natti dhiʼaadhaa” jedhe. Isaan isatti dhiʼaannaan inni akkana jedhe; “Ani Yoosef obboleessa keessan isa isin Gibxitti gurgurtan sanaa dha!
Joseph said to his brothers, “Come near to me, please.” They came near. He said, “I am Joseph, your brother, whom you sold into Egypt.
5 Ammas sababii asitti na gurgurtaniif hin gaabbinaa; ofittis hin aarinaa. Waaqni lubbuu baraaruuf jedhee isin dura na ergeeraatii.
Now don’t be grieved, nor angry with yourselves, that you sold me here, for God sent me before you to preserve life.
6 Waggoota lamaan kana beelatu biyyattii keessa ture; waggoota shanan dhufan keessas lafa qotachuu fi midhaan galfachuun hin jiru.
For these two years the famine has been in the land, and there are yet five years, in which there will be no plowing and no harvest.
7 Waaqni lafa irratti sanyii isiniif hambisuu fi furii guddaadhaan lubbuu keessan oolchuuf jedhee isin dura na erge.
God sent me before you to preserve for you a remnant in the earth, and to save you alive by a great deliverance.
8 “Waaqatu as na erge malee isin miti. Inni Faraʼooniif abbaa na godhe; warra mana isaa jiran hunda irratti gooftaa, biyya Gibxi hunda irratti immoo bulchaa na godhe.
So now it wasn’t you who sent me here, but God, and he has made me a father to Pharaoh, lord of all his house, and ruler over all the land of Egypt.
9 Ammas dafaa gara abbaa kootti deebiʼaatii akkana isaan jedhaa; ‘Ilmi kee Yoosef akkana jedha: Waaqni Gibxi hunda irratti gooftaa na godheera. Gara kootti gad buʼi; hin turinis.
Hurry, and go up to my father, and tell him, ‘This is what your son Joseph says, “God has made me lord of all Egypt. Come down to me. Don’t wait.
10 Ati biyya Gooshen keessa ni jiraatta; ati, ijoolleen keetii fi ijoolleen ijoollee keetii, bushaayeen kee, loon keetii fi wanni ati qabdu hundi natti dhiʼaattanii jiraatu.
You shall dwell in the land of Goshen, and you will be near to me, you, your children, your children’s children, your flocks, your herds, and all that you have.
11 Sababii amma iyyuu waggaan beelaa shan dhufaa jiruuf ani achitti sin soora; yoo kanaa achii atii fi warri mana kee jiraatan, wanni ati qabdu hundinuus ni rakkattu.’
There I will provide for you; for there are yet five years of famine; lest you come to poverty, you, and your household, and all that you have.”’
12 “Akka namni isinitti dubbachaa jiru kun anuma taʼe kunoo, iji keessan, iji obboleessa koo Beniyaamis ni arga.
Behold, your eyes see, and the eyes of my brother Benjamin, that it is my mouth that speaks to you.
13 Ulfina Gibxi keessatti naa kenname hundaa fi waan argitan hunda abbaa kootti himaa. Abbaa koos dafaatii as fidaa.”
You shall tell my father of all my glory in Egypt, and of all that you have seen. You shall hurry and bring my father down here.”
14 Ergasiis morma obboleessa isaa Beniyaamitti marmee booʼe; Beniyaamis booʼaa isa hammate.
He fell on his brother Benjamin’s neck and wept, and Benjamin wept on his neck.
15 Yoosefis obboloota isaa hunda dhungatee itti booʼe. Ergasii obboloonni isaa isa wajjin haasaʼan.
He kissed all his brothers, and wept on them. After that his brothers talked with him.
16 Yommuu akka obboloonni Yoosef dhufan masaraa Faraʼoonitti dhagaʼametti, Faraʼoonii fi qondaaltonni isaa ni gammadan.
The report of it was heard in Pharaoh’s house, saying, “Joseph’s brothers have come.” It pleased Pharaoh well, and his servants.
17 Faraʼoonis Yoosefiin akkana jedhe; “Obboloota keetiin akkana jedhi; ‘Waan kana godhaa: Horii keessan feʼadhaa biyya Kanaʼaaniitti deebiʼaatii
Pharaoh said to Joseph, “Tell your brothers, ‘Do this: Load your animals, and go, travel to the land of Canaan.
18 abbaan keessanii fi maatiiwwan keessan natti fidaa. Ani lafa biyya Gibxi keessaa lafa hunda caalu isiniif nan kenna. Isin cooma biyyattii ni nyaattu.’
Take your father and your households, and come to me, and I will give you the good of the land of Egypt, and you will eat the fat of the land.’
19 “Akkasumas akkana jedhii isaanitti himi; ‘Waan kana godhaa: Ijoollee keessaniifis, niitota keessaniifis biyya Gibxiitii gaariiwwan fudhadhaa; abbaa keessanis fidaatii kottaa.
Now you are commanded to do this: Take wagons out of the land of Egypt for your little ones, and for your wives, and bring your father, and come.
20 Waaʼee qabeenya keessanii hin yaaddaʼinaa; wanni biyya Gibxi guutuu keessaa waan hunda caalu kan keessan taʼaatii.’”
Also, don’t concern yourselves about your belongings, for the good of all the land of Egypt is yours.”
21 Ilmaan Israaʼelis akkasuma godhan. Yoosefis akkuma Faraʼoon isa ajajetti gaariiwwan kenneefii karaa isaaniitiif illee galaa galaaseef.
The sons of Israel did so. Joseph gave them wagons, according to the commandment of Pharaoh, and gave them provision for the way.
22 Tokkoo tokkoo isaaniitiif wayyaa kenne; Beniyaamiif garuu meetii saqilii dhibba sadiitii fi wayyaa irraa jalaa shan kenne.
He gave each one of them changes of clothing, but to Benjamin he gave three hundred pieces of silver and five changes of clothing.
23 Abbaa isaatiif immoo harroota, wanni biyya Gibxi gaggaariin itti feʼame kudhan, akkasumas harroota dhaltuu midhaan, buddeenaa fi galaan biraa karaa isaatiif itti feʼame kudhan erge.
He sent the following to his father: ten donkeys loaded with the good things of Egypt, and ten female donkeys loaded with grain and bread and provision for his father by the way.
24 Innis akkasitti obboloota isaa erge; innis yeroo isaan qajeelanitti, “Karaatti wal hin lolinaa!” jedheen.
So he sent his brothers away, and they departed. He said to them, “See that you don’t quarrel on the way.”
25 Isaanis Gibxi keessaa ol baʼanii gara biyya Kanaʼaan abbaa isaanii Yaaqoob bira dhaqan.
They went up out of Egypt, and came into the land of Canaan, to Jacob their father.
26 Isaanis, “Yoosef amma iyyuu jira! Biyya Gibxi guutuu iyyuu isumatu bulcha” jedhaniin. Yaaqoob immoo naasuudhaan of wallaale; jara amanuus hin dandeenya.
They told him, saying, “Joseph is still alive, and he is ruler over all the land of Egypt.” His heart fainted, for he didn’t believe them.
27 Garuu yeroo jarri waan Yoosef isaaniin jedhe hunda isatti himanii innis gaariiwwan Yoosef isa fichisiisuuf ergeef sana argetti lubbuun abbaa isaanii Yaaqoob ni bayyanatte.
They told him all the words of Joseph, which he had said to them. When he saw the wagons which Joseph had sent to carry him, the spirit of Jacob, their father, revived.
28 Israaʼelis, “Na gaʼa! Ilmi koo Yoosef amma iyyuu jira. Anis utuun hin duʼin dhaqee isa nan arga” jedhe.
Israel said, “It is enough. Joseph my son is still alive. I will go and see him before I die.”
