Bilowgii 47
1 Markaasaa Yuusuf gudaha galay oo uu Fircoon u warramay, wuxuuna ku yidhi, Aabbahay iyo walaalahay, iyo adhigoodii, iyo lo'doodii, iyo waxay haystaan oo dhammu way ka yimaadeen dalkii Kancaan, oo bal eeg, haatan waxay joogaan dalka Goshen.
And so Joseph entered and reported to Pharaoh, saying: “My father and brothers, their sheep and herds, and everything that they possess, have arrived from the land of Canaan. And behold, they stand together in the land of Goshen.”
2 Oo walaalihiisna wuxuu ka kaxeeyey shan nin, oo wuxuu hor taagay Fircoon.
Likewise, he stood in the sight of the king five men, the last of his brothers.
3 Markaasaa Fircoon wuxuu Yuusuf walaalihiis ku yidhi, Shuqulkiinnu waa maxay? Markaasay waxay Fircoon ku yidhaahdeen, Annagoo addoommadaada ah waxaannu nahay adhijirro, annaga iyo awowayaashayoba.
And he questioned them, “What do you have for work?” They responded: “Your servants are pastors of sheep, both we and our fathers.
4 Oo waxay Fircoon ku yidhaahdeen, Inaannu qariib ahaan dhulka u joogno ayaannu u nimid, waayo, adhiga addoommadaadu daaq ma haysto, maxaa yeelay, abaartu aad bay ugu xun tahay dalkii Kancaan; haddaba waxaannu kaa baryaynaa inaannu annagoo addoommadaada ah degno dalka Goshen.
We came to sojourn in your land, because there is no grass for the flocks of your servants, the famine being very grievous in the land of Canaan. And we petition you that you may order us, your servants, to be in the land of Goshen.”
5 Markaasaa Fircoon la hadlay Yuusuf, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Aabbahaa iyo walaalahaa aday kuu yimaadeen.
And so the king said to Joseph: “Your father and brothers have come to you.
6 Dalka Masarna wuu ku hor yaal; haddaba dalka meesha ugu wanaagsan aabbahaa iyo walaalahaa deji, oo dalka Goshen ha degeen. Oo haddaad ku garanaysid rag karti leh, de ka dhig kuwo xoolahayga u taliya.
The land of Egypt is in your sight. Cause them to live in the best place, and deliver to them the land of Goshen. And if you know there to be industrious men among them, appoint these as foremen over my cattle.”
7 Markaasaa Yuusuf aabbihiis Yacquub gudaha soo geliyey, oo wuxuu soo hor taagay Fircoon; Yacquubna Fircoon wuu u duceeyey.
After this, Joseph brought in his father to the king, and he stood him in his sight. He blessed him,
8 Fircoonna wuxuu Yacquub ku yidhi, Immisa jir baad tahay?
and he questioned him: “How many are the days of the years of your life?”
9 Markaasaa Yacquub wuxuu Fircoon ku yidhi, Sannadihii aan qariibka ahaa waa boqol iyo soddon; cimrigaygu waa yaraa, wuuna xumaa, mana gaadhin cimrigii awowayaashay qariibka ahaayeen.
He responded, “The days of my sojourn are one hundred and thirty years, few and unworthy, and they do not reach even to the days of the sojourning of my fathers.”
10 Yacquubna Fircoon wuu u duceeyey, markaasuu Fircoon hortiisa ka tegey.
And blessing the king, he went outside.
11 Markaasuu Yuusuf aabbihiis iyo walaalihiis dejiyey dalkii Masar oo uu ka siiyey meel hanti ah, taasoo ah meeshii dalka ugu wanaagsanayd oo ku tiil dalka la yidhaahdo Racmeses, sidii Fircoon ku amray.
Truly, Joseph gave his father and brothers a possession in Egypt, in the best place of the land, in Rameses, as Pharaoh had instructed.
12 Yuusufna aabbihiis iyo walaalihiis, iyo reerkii aabbihiis oo dhan, sidii ay carruurtoodii tiradoodii ahayd, ayuu u quudiyey.
And he fed them, along with all his father’s house, providing portions of food to each one.
13 Dalkii oo dhanna cunto ma jirin; waayo, abaartu aad bay u xumayd, sidaas daraaddeed dalkii Masar iyo dalkii Kancaan abaartay la taag darnaadeen.
For in the whole world there was a lack of bread, and a famine had oppressed the land, most of all Egypt and Canaan,
14 Yuusufna wuxuu ururiyey lacagtii dalka Masar tiil oo dhan, iyo tii dalka Kancaan tiil oo dhan, waayo, hadhuudh bay kaga iibsadeen; Yuusufna lacagtii wuxuu keenay gurigii Fircoon.
from which he gathered together all the money for the grain that they bought, and he took it into the treasury of the king.
15 Oo markii lacagtii ka wada dhammaatay dalkii Masar iyo dalkii Kancaanba ayay Masriyiintii oo dhammu u yimaadeen Yuusuf, oo waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Cunto na sii, waayo, maxaannu hortaada ugu dhimanaynaa? Maxaa yeelay, lacagtayadii way naga dhammaatay.
And when the buyers had run out of money, all Egypt came to Joseph, saying: “Give us bread. Why should we die in your sight, lacking money?”
16 Markaasaa Yuusuf wuxuu ku yidhi, Haddii lacagtii idinka dhammaatay, xoolihiinna keena, oo anna xoolihiinna ayaan cunto idinka siin doonaa.
And he responded to them: “Bring me your cattle, and I will give food to you in exchange for them, if you do not have money.”
17 Markaasay xoolahoodii Yuusuf u keeneen, Yuusufna wuxuu iyagii cunto ugu beddelay fardihii, iyo adhigii, iyo lo'dii iyo dameerradii; oo sannaddaas ayuu quudiyey oo xoolahoodii oo dhan cunto ugu beddelay.
And when they had brought them, he gave them food for their horses, and sheep, and oxen, and donkeys. And he sustained them in that year in exchange for their cattle.
18 Oo markii sannaddaasi dhammaatay ayay sannaddii labaad u yimaadeen, oo waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Sayidkaygiiyow, kaa qarin mayno in lacagtayadii oo dhammu naga idlaatay, ishkinkii lo'da ahaana adigaa leh, sayidkaygiiyow, waxba kuma hadhin hortaada, sayidkaygiiyow, jidhkayaga iyo dhulalkayaga mooyaane.
Likewise, they came the second year, and they said to him: “We will not conceal from our lord that our money is gone; likewise our cattle are gone. Neither are you unaware that we have nothing left but our bodies and our land.
19 De haddaba maxaannu hortaada ugu dhimanaynaa annaga iyo dhulkayaguba? Annaga iyo dhulkayagaba cunto nagu iibso, oo annaga iyo dhulkayaguba Fircoon baannu addoommo u noqon doonnaa. Abuur la beero na sii inaannu noolaanno, oo aannan dhiman, dhulkayaguna uusan baabbi'in.
Therefore, why should you watch us die? Both we and our land will be yours. Buy us into royal servitude, but provide seed, lest by the dying off of cultivators the land be reduced to a wilderness.”
20 Yuusufna dhulkii Masar oo dhan Fircoon buu u iibiyey, waayo, Masriyiintii nin waluba wuxuu iibiyey beertiisii, maxaa yeelay, abaartaa ku xumayd iyaga; dhulkiina waxaa yeeshay Fircoon.
Therefore, Joseph bought all the land of Egypt, each one selling his possessions because of the magnitude of the famine. And he subjected it to Pharaoh,
21 Dadkiina wuxuu u wareejiyey magaalooyinka dhulka Masar darafkiisa ilaa darafka kale.
along with all of its people, from the newest borders of Egypt, even to its furthest limits,
22 Wuxuusan iibsan dhulkii wadaaddada oo keliya, waayo, wadaaddadu qayb bay ku lahaan jireen Fircoon, oo waxay cuni jireen qaybtii Fircoon siin jiray, oo sidaas daraaddeed ma ay iibsan dhulkoodii.
except the land of the priests, which had been delivered to them by the king. To these also a portion of food was supplied out of the public storehouses, and, for this reason, they were not compelled to sell their possessions.
23 Markaasaa Yuusuf wuxuu dadkii ku yidhi, Bal eega, maantaan Fircoon idiin iibiyey idinka iyo dhulkiinnaba; haddaba abuurkan qaata oo dhulka ku beera.
Therefore, Joseph said to the people: “So, as you discern, both you and your lands are possessed by Pharaoh; take seed and sow the fields,
24 Markii aad wax soo goosataan, waxaad Fircoon siisaan shan meelood meel, afarta kalena waxay idiin ahaan doonaan abuur aad beerta ku abuurtaan iyo cuntadiinna iyo cuntadii reerihiinna iyo cuntadii dhallaankiinnaba.
so that you may be able to have grain. One fifth part you will give to the king; the remaining four I permit to you, as seed and as food for your families and children.
25 Markaasay iyana waxay yidhaahdeen, Adigu noloshayada waad badbaadisay, haddaba, sayidkayagiiyow, naga raalli ahow, oo annana waxaannu Fircoon u noqon doonnaa addoommo.
And they responded: “Our health is in your hand; only let our lord look kindly upon us, and we will serve the king with gladness.”
26 Yuusufna wuxuu sameeyey qaynuun ku saabsan dhulka Masar in ilaa maantadan la joogo Fircoon lahaado shantii meeloodba meel, Fircoonna wuxuusan yeelan dhulkii wadaaddada oo keliya.
From that time, even to the present day, in the entire land of Egypt, the fifth part is turned over to the kings, and it has become like a law, except in the land of the priests, which was free from this condition.
27 Reer binu Israa'iilna waxay degeen dalka Masar, xagga dhulka Goshen; oo halkaas bay maal ka heleen, wayna bateen, oo aad iyo aad bay u tarmeen.
And so, Israel lived in Egypt, that is, in the land of Goshen, and he possessed it. And he increased and was multiplied exceedingly.
28 Yacquubna wuxuu dalka Masar ku noolaa toddoba iyo toban sannadood, oo Yacquub cimrigiisu wuxuu ahaa boqol iyo toddoba iyo afartan sannadood.
And he lived in it seventeen years. And all the days of his life that passed were one hundred and forty-seven years.
29 Wakhtigii Israa'iil dhiman lahaana waa soo dhowaaday, markaasuu wiilkiisii Yuusuf u yeedhay, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Haddaba haddii aad raalli iga tahay, waan ku baryayaaye, gacantaada bowdadayda hoos geli, oo si raxmad leh oo daacad ah igu la dhaqan. Haddaba waan ku baryayaaye, Masar ha igu aasin,
And when he discerned that the day of his death was approaching, he called his son Joseph, and he said to him: “If I have found favor in your sight, place your hand under my thigh. And you shall show me mercy and truth, not to bury me in Egypt.
30 laakiinse meydkaygu ha la jiifo awowayaashay; waa inaad Masar iga qaaddaa oo aad igu aastaa meeshii lagu aasay awowayaashay. Markaasuu isna yidhi, Waan yeeli doonaa sidaad igu tidhi.
But I shall sleep with my fathers, and you will carry me from this land and bury me in the sepulcher of my ancestors.” And Joseph answered him, “I will do what you have ordered.”
31 Markaasuu ku yidhi, Ii dhaaro, isna wuu u dhaartay. Markaasaa Israa'iil sariirta madaxeedii ku foororsaday.
And he said, “Then swear it to me.” And as he was swearing, Israel adored God, turning to the head of his resting place.
