1 Zvino Josefa akarayira mutariri weimba yake achiti, “Zadza masaga avarume ava nezvokudya zvakawanda zvavanokwanisa kutakura, uye uise mari yomumwe nomumwe mumuromo wesaga.
Awo Yusufu n’alagira omuweereza mu nnyumba ye nti, “Jjuza ensawo z’abasajja emmere nga bwe basobola okugyetikka, era oteeke ensimbi za buli omu mu nsawo ye.
2 Ipapo ugoisa mukombe wangu, iwo wesirivha, mumuromo wesaga remuduku kuna vose, pamwe chete nemari yezviyo zvake.” Uye akaita sezvaakanga audzwa naJosefa.
Era oteeke ekikopo kyange, ekya ffeeza, mu kamwa k’ensawo ya muto waabwe, wamu n’ensimbi ze ez’okugula emmere.” N’akola nga Yusufu bwe yamugamba.
3 Kwakati kuchiedza, varume vaya vakaendeswa panzira yavo pamwe chete nembongoro dzavo.
Emmambya eba evaayo abasajja ne basiibulwa n’endogoyi zaabwe.
4 Vakanga vasati vava kure neguta Josefa paakati kumutariri wake, “Tevera varume vaya izvozvi, uye paunovabata, uti kwavari, ‘Seiko matsiva chakanaka nechakaipa?
Bwe baali baakava mu kibuga Yusufu n’agamba omuweereza we nti, “Golokoka obagoberere bw’obatuukako obabuuze nti, ‘Lwaki musasudde ekibi olw’ebirungi? Lwaki mubbye ekikopo kyange ekya ffeeza?
5 Ko, uyu hauzi mukombe unonwira tenzi wangu uye wavanoshandisa pakuvuka here? Chinhu chamaita ichi chakaipa.’”
Mu kino mukama wange si mwanywera, era si kyalaguza? Mu ekyo mukoze bubi.’”
6 Paakavabata, akadzokorora mashoko aya kwavari.
Bwe yabatuukako n’abategeeza ebigambo ebyo.
7 Asi ivo vakati kwaari, “Seiko ishe wangu achitaura zvinhu zvakadai? Ngazvive kure navaranda venyu kuti vaite chinhu chakadaro!
Ne bamugamba nti, “Mukama waffe lwaki ayogedde ebigambo ebyo? Olowooza tuli bantu ba ngeri ki abayinza okukola ekintu ng’ekyo?
8 Takadzoka kwamuri kubva kunyika yeKenani kunyange nemari yatakawana mumiromo yamasaga edu. Saka taizobireiko sirivha kana goridhe mumba matenzi wenyu?
Laba, ensimbi ze twasanga ku mimwa gy’ensawo zaffe twazikuddiza okuva mu nsi ya Kanani, kale twandisobodde tutya okubba ffeeza oba zaabu okuva mu nnyumba ya mukama wo?
9 Kana mumwe upi zvake wavaranda venyu akawanikwa anayo, ngaafe; uye isu tose tichava nhapwa dzashe wangu.”
Oyo gw’onookisanga nakyo mu ffe abaddu bo, afe, era naffe tuliba baddu ba mukama wange.”
10 Iye akati, “Zvakanaka chaizvo, ngazvive sezvamataura. Ani naani anowanikwa anayo achava nhapwa yangu; vamwe mose hamungapiwi mhosva.”
N’abaddamu nti, “Kale kibeere nga bwe mwogedde, oyo anaasangibwa nakyo abeere muddu wange, naye abalala mu mmwe tewaabe abaako ky’avunaanwa.”
11 Mumwe nomumwe wavo akakurumidza kuburutsa saga rake pasi uye akarizarura.
Amangwago buli omu nassa ensawo ye wansi n’agisumulula.
12 Ipapo mutariri akatanga kutsvaka, akatanga kumukuru akapedzisira kumuduku wavose. Uye mukombe wakawanikwa musaga raBhenjamini.
N’alyoka abaaza ng’asookera ku asinga obukulu okutuuka ku asembayo obuto; ekikopo ne kisangibwa mu nsawo ya Benyamini.
13 Ipapo, vakabvarura nguo dzavo. Ipapo vakatakudza mbongoro dzavo uye vakadzokera kuguta.
Awo ne bayuza engoye zaabwe, buli omu n’atikka endogoyi ye, ne baddayo mu kibuga.
14 Josefa akanga achiri mumba pakapinda Judha navanunʼuna vake, uye vakazviwisira pasi pamberi pake.
Yusufu yali akyali mu nju, Yuda ne baganda be bwe baatuuka gy’ali, ne bagwa mu maaso ge ne bamuvuunamira.
15 Josefa akati kwavari, “Chiiko ichi chamaita? Hamuzivi kuti munhu akaita seni anogona kuziva zvinhu nokuvuka here?”
Yusufu n’abagamba nti, “Kiki kino kye mukoze? Temumanyi nti omuntu ali nga nze asobola okuvumbula kye mukoze?”
16 Judha akapindura akati, “Chiiko chatingataura kuna ishe wangu? Tingataureiko? Tingazvipembedza seiko? Mwari afukura mhosva yavaranda venyu. Zvino tava nhapwa dzashe wedu, isu pachedu naiye awanikwa ano mukombe.”
Yuda n’addamu nti, “Tunaddamu ki mukama wange? Tunaayogera ki? Oba tuneggyako tutya omusango? Katonda avumbudde obwonoonyi bw’abaddu bo, laba tuli baddu ba mukama wange, ffenna, ffe n’oyo asangiddwa n’ekikopo.”
17 Asi Josefa akati, “Ngazvive kure neni kuti ndiite chinhu chakadai! Munhu awanikwa ano mukombe wangu chete ndiye achava nhapwa yangu. Imi mose, dzokerai kuna baba venyu norugare.”
Yusufu n’addamu nti, “Ekyo sijja kukikola, wabula oyo asangiddwa n’ekikopo, y’anaaba omuddu wange, naye mmwe mwambuke mirembe, mutuuke eri kitammwe.”
18 Ipapo Judha akaenda kwaari akati, “Ndapota, ishe wangu, regai muranda wenyu ataure shoko rimwe kuna she wangu. Regai kutsamwira muranda wenyu, kunyange hazvo makaenzana naFaro pachake.
Awo Yuda n’alaga eri Yusufu n’agamba nti, “Ayi mukama wange nkusaba omuddu wo abeeko kyayogera gy’oli, n’obusungu bwo buleme kubuubuuka eri omuddu wo; kubanga oli nga Falaawo yennyini.
19 Ishe wangu akabvunza varanda vake akati, ‘Muna baba kana mununʼuna here?’
Mukama wange yabuuza abaweereza be nti, ‘Mulina kitammwe oba muganda wammwe?’
20 Uye isu takapindura tikati, ‘Tina baba vava vatana, uye pano mukomana muduku akaberekwa pautana hwavo. Mukoma wake akafa, uye ndiye oga asara mwanakomana wamai vake, uye baba vake vanomuda.’
Ne tuddamu mukama wange nti, ‘Tulina kitaffe, musajja mukulu, ne muganda waffe atusinga obuto, omwana gwe yazaala mu bukadde bwe, ne muganda wa muto waffe, yafa; muto waffe yekka y’aliwo, eyasigalawo yekka ku baana ba nnyina; era kitaawe amwagala nnyo.’
21 “Ipapo imi makati kuvaranda venyu, ‘Uyai naye kuno kwandiri kuti ndimuone, ini pachangu.’
“N’olyoka ogamba abaddu bo nti, ‘Mumundeetere, mmulabeko.’
22 Uye isu takati kuna she wangu, ‘Mukomana haangasiye baba vake; kana akavasiya, baba vake vangafa.’
Twategeeza mukama wange nti, ‘Omulenzi tayinza kuva ku kitaawe, kubanga bw’amuvaako, kitaawe alifa bufi!’
23 Asi imi makati kuvaranda venyu, ‘Kunze kwokunge mauya nomununʼuna wenyu gotwe, hamungazooni chiso changu.’
N’oddamu abaddu bo nti, ‘Muto wammwe bw’ataliserengeta nammwe, temugenda kulaba maaso gange.’
24 Patakadzokera kumuranda wenyu, baba vangu, takavaudza zvakanga zvarehwa naishe wangu.
Bwe twaddayo eri omuddu wo kitaffe, twamutegeeza ebigambo ebyo, mukama wange.
25 “Ipapo baba vedu vakati, ‘Dzokerai mundotengazve zvimwe zvokudya zvishoma.’
Kale kitaffe bwe yagamba nti, ‘Muddeeyo mutugulire ku mmere,’
26 Asi isu takati, ‘Hatigoni kuenda. Tichaenda bedzi kana mununʼuna wedu anesu. Hatigoni kuona chiso chomurume uyo kunze kwokunge mununʼuna wedu gotwe aenda nesu.’
ne tumuddamu nti, ‘Tetusobola kuserengeta. Muto waffe bw’atagenda naffe tetujja kugenda kubanga tetusobola kulaba maaso ga musajja oli nga muto waffe tali naffe.’
27 “Muranda wenyu baba vangu vakati kwatiri, ‘Imi munoziva kuti mukadzi wangu akandiberekera vanakomana vaviri.
“Awo omuddu wo, kitaffe n’atugamba nti, ‘Mumanyi, mukazi wange yanzaalira abaana abalenzi babiri;
28 Mumwe wavo akabva kwandiri, uye ndikati, “Zvirokwazvo akabvamburwa-bvamburwa.” Uye handina kuzomuona kubvira ipapo.
omu yambulako, ne njogera nti mazima yataagulwataagulwa; era siddangayo kumulaba.
29 Kana mukanditorera iyeyuwo uye kana zvakaipa zvikamuwira, muchaendesa musoro wangu wachena kuguva mukusuwa.’ (Sheol h7585)
Bwe muntwalako n’ono, akabi ne kamutuukako, muliserengesa envi zange emagombe nga nkungubaga.’ (Sheol h7585)
30 “Saka zvino, kana mukomana akasava nesu pandinodzokera kumuranda wenyu, baba vangu, uye kana baba vangu, avo vakasunganidza upenyu hwavo kuupenyu hwomukomana,
“Kale kaakano, bwe nzirayo eri omuddu wo kitange ng’omulenzi tali naffe, obulamu bwe nga bwe bunyweredde ku bw’omulenzi,
31 vakaona kuti mukomana haapo, vachafa. Muranda wenyu achaendesa musoro wachena wababa vedu kuguva mukusuwa. (Sheol h7585)
bw’anaalaba ng’omulenzi tali naffe, ajja kufa, n’abaddu bo baliserengesa envi z’omuddu wo kitaffe emagombe ng’akyakungubagira omwana we. (Sheol h7585)
32 Muranda wenyu akapa rubatso rwokuchengetedzeka kwomukomana kuna baba vangu. Ndakati, ‘Kana ndikasadzoka naye kwamuri, ndini ndichava nemhosva pamberi penyu, baba vangu, upenyu hwangu hwose!’
Kubanga omuweereza wo yeeyimirira omulenzi eri kitange; nga ŋŋamba nti, ‘Bwe sirimuzza gy’oli ndiba n’obuvunaanyizibwa n’okunenyezebwa ennaku zonna ez’obulamu bwange.’
33 “Zvino, ndapota, regai henyu muranda wenyu asare kuno senhapwa yashe wangu pachinzvimbo chomukomana, uye murege mukomana adzokere namadzikoma ake.
“Kale kaakano nkwegayirira, omuddu wo nsigale ng’omuddu wa mukama wange, mu kifo ky’omulenzi; omulenzi omuleke addeyo ne baganda be.
34 Ndingadzokera sei kuna baba vangu kana mukomana ndisinaye? Kwete! Musandirega ndichiona njodzi ichiuya pamusoro pababa vangu.”
Kale n’addayo ntya eri kitange ng’omulenzi tali nange? Ntya okulaba akabi akayinza okutuuka ku kitange.”
