Uumama 46
1 Israaʼel waan qabu hunda fudhatee kaʼe; yeroo Bersheebaa gaʼettis Waaqa abbaa isaa Waaqa Yisihaaqiifis aarsaa dhiʼeesse.
So Israel left for Egypt with everything he had. When he arrived at Beersheba he offered sacrifices to the God of his father Isaac.
2 Waaqnis halkan mulʼataan, “Yaaqoob! Yaaqoob!” jedhee Israaʼelitti dubbate. Innis, “Kunoo ani as jira” jedhee deebise.
During the night God spoke to Israel in a vision. “Jacob! Jacob!” he called. “I'm here,” he replied.
3 Waaqnis akkana jedhe; “Ani Waaqayyo, Waaqa abbaa keetii ti. Gibxitti gad buʼuu hin sodaatin; ani achitti saba guddaa sin taasisaatii.
“I am God, the God of your father! Don't be afraid to go to Egypt, because I will turn you and your descendants into a great nation.
4 Ani si wajjin Gibxitti gad buʼee deebisee sin fida. Harkuma Yooseftu ija kee walitti siif qaba.”
I will go to Egypt with you, and I promise to bring you back again. And Joseph will personally close your eyes when you die.”

Joseph ordered his chariot made ready and went to meet his father Israel there. As soon as he arrived, he hugged his father and wept for a long time.
30 Israaʼelis Yoosefiin, “Ani sababii akka ati amma iyyuu lubbuun jirtu ofii kootiin argeef siʼachi duʼu illee hin gaabbu” jedhe.
“Now I can die in peace because I have seen your face again and know you're still alive,” Israel told Joseph.
31 Yoosefis obboloota isaatii fi warra mana abbaa isaa jiraataniin akkana jedhe; “Ani ol baʼee Faraʼoonitti nan dubbadha; akkanas nan jedhaan; ‘Obboloonni koo fi warri mana abbaa koo jiraatan kanneen biyya Kanaʼaan jiraachaa turan natti dhufaniiru.
