Bilowgii 44

1 Markaasuu amray wakiilkii gurigiisa, oo ku yidhi, Nimanka joonyadahooda cunto uga buuxi, in alla intay qaadi karaan, nin walba lacagtiisana joonyaddiisa afkeeda ugu rid.

Then commanded he him who was over his house saying—Fill the sacks of the men, with food, as much as they can carry, and put each man’s silver in the mouth of his sack;

2 Kan ugu yar joonyaddiisa afkeedana waxaad ku riddaa koobkayga lacagta ah iyo lacagtiisii uu hadhuudhka ku doonayay. Markaasuu yeelay hadalkii Yuusuf kula hadlay.

and my cup—the cup of silver, shalt thou put in the mouth of the sack of the youngest, with his corn-silver. So he did, according to the word of Joseph, which he had spoken.

3 Oo markii waagii beryay ayaa nimankii la diray, iyagii iyo dameerradoodiiba.

By the time, the morning, was light, the men, had been sent away, they, and their asses.

4 Oo markay magaaladii dibadda uga baxeen, oo ayan weli fogaan, ayaa Yuusuf ku yidhi wakiilkiisii, Kac oo ka daba tag nimankii, oo markaad gaadhid, waxaad ku tidhaahdaa, Maxaad wanaag xumaan noogu abaalguddeen?

They themselves, had gone out of the city—they had not gone far, when Joseph said to him who was over his house, Rise chase after the men, —so shalt thou overtake them and shalt say unto them, Wherefore have ye requited evil for good?

5 Miyuusan kanu ahayn koobka sayidkaygu wax ku cabbo, oo uu ku faaliyo? Wax xun baad samayseen markaad saas yeesheen.

Is not this that in which my lord drinketh, and whereby, he himself, doth divine? Ye have done evil in what ye have done.

6 Kolkaasuu gaadhay, oo uu hadalkan kula hadlay.

So he overtook them, —and spake unto them these words.

7 Markaasay waxay isagii ku yidhaahdeen, Sayidkaygiiyow, hadalka caynkan ah maxaad ugu hadlaysaa? Yaanay noqon in annagoo ah addoommadaada aannu wax caynkaas ah samayno.

And they said unto him, Wherefore should my lord speak such words as these? Far be thy servants, from doing such a thing as this!

8 Bal eeg, lacagtii aannu ka dhex helnay joonyadahayaga afafkooda ayaannu kaaga soo celinnay dalkii Kancaan; de haddaba sidee baannu guriga sayidkaaga uga xadi karnaa lacag ama dahab?

Lo! the silver that we found in the mouth of our sacks, we brought back unto thee out of the land of Canaan, —how then could we steal out of the house of thy lord, silver or gold?

9 Ku alla kii addoommadaada ka mid ah oo laga helo, kaasu ha dhinto, annaguna addoommo baannu kuu noqon doonnaa, sayidkaygiiyow.

With whomsoever of thy servants it can be found, he shall die, —and, we also, will become my lord’s servants.

10 Markaasuu yidhi, Waa yahay, oo haatan sidaad tidhaahdeen ha noqoto. Kii laga helo addoon buu ii noqon doonaa, idinkuna waad eedla'aan doontaan.

And he said, Yea, now, according to your words, so, let it be, —he with whom it is found, shall be my servant, Ye, however, shall be clear.

11 Markaasay degdegeen, oo nin waluba joonyaddiisii buu dhulka dhigay, dabadeedna nin waluba joonyaddiisii buu furay.

So they hastened and took down each man his sack to the ground, —and opened each man his sack.

12 Kolkaasuu baadhay, oo wuxuu ka bilaabay kii ugu weynaa, oo wuxuu ku dhammeeyey kii ugu yaraa; oo koobkiina waxaa laga helay joonyaddii Benyaamiin.

Then made he thorough search, with the eldest, he began, and with the youngest, he ended, —and the cup was found in the sack of Benjamin!

13 Kolkaasay dharkoodii jeexjeexeen, oo nin waluba dameerkiisii buu rartay, oo magaaladii bay ku noqdeen.

And they rent their mantles, —and laded each man his ass, and returned to the city.

14 Markaasaa Yahuudah iyo walaalihiis waxay yimaadeen gurigii Yuusuf; oo isna weli halkaasuu joogay. Kolkaasay hortiisa dhulka isku tuureen.

And Judah and his brethren came into the house of Joseph, he, yet being there, —and fell down before him to the earth.

15 Oo Yuusufna wuxuu iyagii ku yidhi, Waxan aad samayseen waa maxay? Miyaydnaan ogayn ninkii anoo kale ahu inuu faalin karo?

And Joseph said to them, What is this deed which ye have done? Know ye not that such a man as I, can even divine?

16 Markaasaa Yahuudah ku yidhi, Maxaannu kuugu jawaabnaa, sayidkaygiiyow? Oo maxaannu ku hadalnaa? Ama sidee baannu ku eed baxnaa? Ilaah waa soo saaray dembigayagii annagoo ah addoommadaada; bal eeg, sayidkaygiiyow, waxaannu nahay addoommadaada, annaga iyo kii gacantiisa koobka laga helayba.

Then said Judah—What shall we say to my lord, how shall we speak and how shall we justify ourselves, —when, God himself, hath found out the iniquity of thy servants? Behold us! my lord’s servants, both we, and he in whose hand the cup hath been found.

17 Markaasuu yidhi, Yaanay noqon inaan saas yeelo. Ninkii gacantiisa koobka laga helay ayaa addoon ii noqon doona; laakiinse idinku kaca oo nabdoonaan aabbihiin ugu taga.

And he said, Far be it from me to do this thing! The man in whose hand the cup hath been found, he, shall be my servant, but as for you, go ye up in peace unto your father.

18 Markaasaa Yahuudah u soo dhowaaday oo ku yidhi, Sayidkaygiiyow, anigoo addoonkaaga ah waxaan kaa baryayaa inaan hadal yar kugula hadlo, sayidkaygiiyow, oo ha ii cadhoon anigoo ah addoonkaaga; waayo, waxaad la mid tahay sida Fircoon oo kale.

Then Judah drew near unto him, and said—Pardon my lord! Pray let thy servant speak a word in the ears of my lord, and do not let thine anger be kindled against thy servant, —for, thus, art, thou as Pharaoh!

19 Sayidkaygiiyow, annagoo ah addoommadaada, ayaad wax na weyddiisay oo nagu tidhi, Aabbe ama walaal ma leedihiin?

It was, my lord, who asked his servants, saying, —Have ye a father, or a brother?

20 Oo annaguna waxaannu kugu nidhi, Sayidkaygiiyow, waxaannu leennahay aabbe duq ah, iyo wiil yar oo uu dhalay markuu gaboobay, oo walaalkiisna waa dhintay, oo keligiis baa ka hadhay bahdoodii, aabbihiisna waa jecel yahay isaga.

So we said unto my lord, We have an aged father, and the child of his old age a youth, —his brother, being dead, he alone, is left of his mother and, his father, loveth him.

21 Oo adigu waxaad nagu tidhi, annagoo ah addoommadaada, Bal ii keena isaga, aan indhahayga saaree.

So then thou saidst unto thy servants, Bring him down unto me, —that I may set mine eyes upon him.

22 Oo annaguna waxaannu kugu nidhi, sayidkaygiiyow, Yarku aabbihiis kama tegi karo; waayo, hadduu ka tago aabbihiis, de markaas aabbihiis waa dhiman lahaa.

And we said unto my lord, The lad cannot leave his father, —as surely as he leaveth his father, so surely will he, die.

23 Oo adna waxaad nagu tidhi, annagoo ah addoommadaada, Haddii uusan walaalkiinnii idiinku yaraa idin soo raacin, wejigayga mar dambe ma aad arki doontaan.

And thou saidst unto thy servants, Except your youngest brother do come down with you, ye shall not again behold my face.

24 Oo markii aannu u tagnay aabbahay oo addoonkaaga ah, ayaannu isaga u sheegnay hadalladaadii, sayidkaygiiyow.

So it came to pass when we had gone up unto thy servant, my father, that we told him the words of my lord.

25 Oo aabbahayo wuxuu nagu yidhi, Orda haddana oo wuxoogaa yar oo cunto ah inoo soo iibiya.

Then said our father, —Go again buy us a little food,

26 Oo waxaannu ku nidhi, Ma tegi karno. Haddiise walaalkayaga noogu yaru na raaco, markaasaannu dhaadhici doonnaa; waayo, ma aannu arki karno ninkii wejigiisa, haddii uusan walaalkayaga noogu yaru nala jirin.

And we said, We cannot go down, —If our youngest brother be with us, then will we go down, for we cannot see the face of the man if, our youngest brother, is not with us.

27 Markaasaa addoonkaagii aabbahay ahaa wuxuu nagu yidhi, Waad og tihiin in naagtaydu ii dhashay laba wiil;

Then said thy servant my father, unto us, —Ye yourselves, know, that, two, did my wife bear to me,

28 oo uu midkood iga baxay, oo waxaan idhi, Hubaal cadcad baa loo kala jeexjeexay, tan iyo waagaasna ma aanan arkin isagii.

and the one went forth from me, and I said—Certainly he hath been, torn in pieces, —And I have never seen him since.

29 Oo haddaad kanna iga kaxaysataan, oo belaayo ku dhacdo isaga, de markaas cirradayda caloolxumaad qabriga la gelin doontaan. (Sheol h7585)

As surely as ye take, this one also, away from before my face and there befall him any mischief, so surely shall ye bring down my grey hairs, with misfortune to hades. (Sheol h7585)

30 Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed markii aan u tago aabbahay oo addoonkaagii ah, haddii uusan wiilku nala jirin, de naftiisu waxay ku xidhan tahay nafta wiilka,

Now, therefore, as surely as I go in unto thy servant my father, and, the lad, is not with us, —seeing that his soul is bound up with the lad’s soul,

31 oo wuu dhiman doonaa markuu arko inuusan yarkii nala jirin; oo annagoo ah addoommadaada ayaannu aabbahayaga addoonkaaga ah cirradiisa caloolxumo qabriga la gelin doonnaa. (Sheol h7585)

so surely shall it come to pass that when he seeth that the lad is not with us, then will he die. So shall thy servants bring down the grey hairs of thy servant our father, with sorrow to hades. (Sheol h7585)

32 Waayo, anigoo addoonkaaga ah ayaa aabbahay dammiin uga noqday wiilka, oo waxaan ku idhi, Haddaan kuu keeni waayo, xaggaaga eeddu ha iga saarnaato weligay, Aabbahayow.

For thy servant, became surety for the lad, while away from my father saying, —If I bring him not unto thee, then will I count myself a sinner against my father all the days.

33 Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed, waan ku baryayaaye, aniga oo ah addoonkaagii, aan wiilka meeshiisii kuu joogo oo aan addoon kuu noqdo, sayidkaygiiyow; wiilkuna walaalihiis ha iska raaco.

Now, therefore, I pray thee let thy servant remain instead of the lad, as servant to my lord, —but as for the lad, let him go up with his brethren.

34 Waayo, sidee baan aabbahay ugu tegi doonaa iyadoo aan yarku ila jirin? Maba tegi karo waaba intaasoo aan arkaa hoogga aabbahay ku dhici doona.

For how can I go up unto my father, should the lad, not be with me? lest I look on the calamity, that shall find out my father,
