< Genesis 43 >
1 Matindi na ang taggutom sa lupain.
And the famine [was] heavy in the land.
2 Dumating ang panahon nang maubos na nilang kainin ang butil na kinuha nila mula sa Ehipto, sinabi ng kanilang ama, “Humayo kayong muli at bumili ng pagkain natin.
And it was just when they finished to eat the grain which they had brought from Egypt and he said to them father their go back buy for us a little of food.
3 Sinabi sa kanya ni Juda “Mahigpit kaming binalaan ng lalaki, 'Hindi ninyo makikita ang aking mukha maliban na lamang kung kasama ninyo ang iyong kapatid.
And he said to him Judah saying certainly he warned us the man saying not you will see face my except brother your [is] with you.
4 Kung hahayaan mong isama namin ang aming kapatid, bababa kami at bibili ng pagkain para sa iyo.
If there you [are] sending brother our with us we will go down and we will buy for you food.
5 Ngunit kung hindi mo siya ipapasama, hindi kami bababa. Dahil sinabi ng lalaki sa amin, “Hindi ninyo makikita ang aking mukha maliban na lamang kung kasama ninyo ang inyong kapatid.
And if not you [are] sending [him] not we will go down for the man he said to us not you will see face my except brother your [is] with you.
6 Sinabi ni Israel, “Bakit mo ako pinakikitunguhan ng masama sa pamamagitan ng pagsasabi sa taong iyon na meron pa kayong isang kapatid?”
And he said Israel why? did you do harm to me by telling to the man ¿ still [belong] to you [does] a brother.
7 Sinabi nila, “Nagtanong ang lalaki ng mga bagay tungkol sa amin at sa ating pamilya. Sinabi niya, 'Buhay pa ba ang iyong ama? Mayroon pa ba kayong ibang kapatid?' Sinagot namin siya ayon sa mga tanong na ito. Paano namin malalaman na sasabihin niyang, “Dalhin mo dito ang iyong kapatid?”
And they said carefully he asked the man of us and of kindred our saying ¿ still [is] father your living ¿ [does] there [belong] to you a brother and we told to him on [the] mouth of the words these ¿ really did we know that he will say bring down brother your.
8 Sinabi ni Judah sa kanyang ama, “Ipadala mo ang batang lalaki sa amin. Tatayo kami at aalis upang mabuhay kami at hindi mamatay, kapwa kami, ikaw, at ang aming mga anak.
And he said Judah to Israel father his send! the young man with me so let us arise and we will go and we may live and not we will die both we as well as you as well as little one[s] our.
9 Ako ang mananagot sa kanya. Ako ang pananagutin mo. Kung hindi ko siya maibabalik sa iyo at maihaharap sa iyo hayaan mong ako ang masisi habang buhay.
I I will stand surety for him from hand my you will require him if not I have brought him to you and I will set him before you and I will be culpable to you all the days.
10 Kung hindi kami maaantala, sigurado ngayon nakabalik na kami dito nang pangalawang beses”.
For if not we had delayed for now we have returned this two times.
11 Sinabi ng kanilang ama na si Israel, “Kung ganoon, gawin ninyo ito ngayon. Kumuha kayo ng mga pinaka magandang produkto sa ating lupain sa inyong mga sisidlan. Magdala kayo ng regalo sa taong iyon: tulad ng balsamo at pulot-pukyutan, pabango at mirra, pili at almendra.
And he said to them Israel father their if so - then this do take some of [the] best products of the land in vessels your and take down to the man a gift a little of balm and a little of honey spice and myrrh pistachio nuts and almonds.
12 Doblehin ninyo ang perang dala ninyo. Ang perang naisuli mula sa pagbukas ng inyong mga sako, dalhin ninyo ulit sa inyong mga kamay. Baka isa lang itong pagkakamali.
And silver double take in hand your and the silver that was returned in [the] mouth of sacks your you will take back in hand your perhaps [was] a mistake it.
13 Dalhin rin ang inyong kapatid na lalaki. Tumayo at pumunta kayo ulit sa taong iyon.
And brother your take and arise go back to the man.
14 Nawa'y kaawaan kayo ng Makapangyarihang Diyos sa harap ng taong iyon, upang palayain niya sa inyo ang iba niyong mga kapatid at si Benjamin. Kung ako'y nagdadalamhati sa aking mga anak, ako'y nagdadalamhati.
And God Almighty may he give to you compassion before the man and he will let go to you brother your other and Benjamin and I just when I have been bereaved I have been bereaved.
15 At dinala ng mga lalaki ang regalong iyon. Kumuha sila ng dobleng salapi sa kanilang mga kamay at si Benjamin. Tumayo sila, pumunta pababa sa Ehipto, at tumayo sa harapan ni Jose.
And they took the men the gift this and double money they took in hand their and Benjamin and they arose and they went down Egypt and they stood before Joseph.
16 Nang makita ni Jose na kasama nila si Benjamin, sinabi niya sa katiwala ng kanyang bahay, “Dalhin mo ang mga lalaki sa bahay, kumatay kayo ng hayop at ihanda ito, dahil ang mga lalaki ay kakain kasama ko ngayong tanghalian.
And he saw Joseph with them Benjamin and he said to [the one] who [was] over household his bring the men the house towards and slaughter a slaughter and prepare [it] for with me they will eat the men at noon.
17 Ginawa ng katiwala ang sinabi ni Jose. Dinala niya ang mga lalaki sa bahay ni Jose.
And he did the man just as he said Joseph and he brought the man the men [the] house of towards Joseph.
18 Natakot ang mga lalaki dahil sila ay dinala sa bahay ni Jose. Sinabi nila, “Ito ay dahil sa perang isinauli sa aming mga sako sa unang pagkakataon na pumunta kami dito, para makahanap siya ng pagkakataon laban sa amin. Maaari niya kaming hulihin at gawin lipin, at kunin ang aming mga asno.
And they were afraid the men that they were brought [the] house of Joseph and they said on [the] matter of the silver which returned in sacks our at the beginning we [are] being brought to roll himself on us and to throw himself on us and to take us to slaves and donkeys our.
19 Nilapitan nila ang katiwala ng bahay ni Jose, at siya ay kinausap nila sa may pintuan ng bahay,
And they approached the man who [was] over [the] household of Joseph and they spoke to him [the] entrance of the house.
20 sinabing, “Aking amo, noong unang pagkakataon na pumunta kami dito ay para bumili ng pagkain.
And they said pardon us O lord my certainly we came down at the beginning to buy food.
21 Nangyari na, nang makarating na kami sa lugar kung saan kami ay pansamantalang nakatira, na binuksan namin ang aming mga sako, at, tingnan, ang bawat pera ng tao ay nandoon sa bukasan ng kanilang sako, ang aming pera na sakto ang halaga. Ibinalik namin ito sa aming mga kamay.
And it was that we came to the lodging place and we opened! sacks our and there! [the] silver of each man [was] in [the] mouth of sack his silver our in weight its and we have brought back it in hand our.
22 Ang ibang pera ay dinala rin namin sa aming kamay para bumili ng pagkain. Hindi namin alam kung sino ang naglagay ng pera sa aming mga sako.”
And silver other we have brought down in hand our to buy food not we know who? did he put silver our in sacks our.
23 Sinabi ng katiwala, “Ang kapayapaan ay sumainyo, huwag kayong matakot. Ang inyong Diyos at ang Diyos ng inyong ama ang maaaring naglagay ng pera sa inyong mga sako. Natanggap ang iyong pera.” Inilabas naman ng katiwala si Simeon sa kanila.
And he said peace [be] to you may not you fear God your and [the] God of father your he gave to you treasure in sacks your silver your it came to me and he brought out to them Simeon.
24 Dinala ng katiwala ang mga lalaki sa bahay ni Jose. Binigyan niya ito ng tubig, at hinugasan nila ang kanilang mga paa. Binigyan niya ng mga pagkain ang kanilang mga asno.
And he brought the man the men [the] house of towards Joseph and he gave water and they washed feet their and he gave fodder to donkeys their.
25 Inihanda nila ang mga regalo sa pagdating ni Jose sa tanghali, sapagkat narinig nila na sila ay kakain doon.
And they prepared the gift until came Joseph at noon for they had heard that there they will eat food.
26 Nang dumating si Jose sa bahay, dinala nila ang mga regalo na nasa kamay nila doon sa bahay, at sila'y yumuko sa harapan niya sa sahig.
And he came Joseph the house towards and they brought to him the gift which [was] in hand their the house towards and they bowed down to him [the] ground towards.
27 Tinanong niya sila tungkol sa kanilang kalagayan at nagsabing, “Mabuti ba ang kalagayan ng inyong ama, ang matanda na inyong binabanggit? Buhay pa ba siya?”
And he asked of them to welfare and he said ¿ health [is] father your old whom you spoke ¿ [is] still he alive.
28 Sila ay nagsalita, “Ang iyong lingkod ang aming ama ay mabuti naman. Siya ay buhay pa.” Sila ay dumapa at yumuko.
And they said health [belongs] to servant your to father our still he [is] alive and they bowed low (and they bowed down. *Q(K)*)
29 Itinuon niya ang kanyang mga mata pataas at nakita si Benjamin ang kanyang kapatid na lalaki, ang anak ng kanyang ina, na nagsasabing, “Ito ba ang sinasabi mong nakababatang kapatid mo na iyong binabanggit sa akin? Sinabi niya, “Ang Diyos ay maging maawain sa iyo, aking anak”.
And he lifted up eyes his and he saw Benjamin brother his [the] son of mother his and he said ¿ [is] this brother your young whom you spoke to me and he said God may he show favor to you O son my.
30 Nagmamadali si Jose na lumabas sa loob, dahil labis siyang naantig tungkol sa kanyang kapatid na lalaki. Naghanap siya ng lugar upang iyakan. Pumunta siya sa kanyang silid at doon umiyak.
And he hurried Joseph for they grew warm compassion his to brother his and he sought to weep and he went the inner room towards and he wept there.
31 Naghilamos siya at lumabas. Pinigilan niya ang kanyang sarili, na nagsasabing “Ihain na ang pagkain”.
And he washed face his and he came out and he restrained himself and he said set food.
32 Pinagsilbihan ng mga lingkod si Jose na siya lang at ang kanyang mga kapatid na lalaki na sila lang. Ang mga taga-Ehipto ay kumain doon kasama niya ng sila-sila lang dahil ang taga-Ehipto ay hindi kumakain ng tinapay kasama ng mga Hebreo, dahil ito ay hindi katanggap-tanggap sa mga taga-Ehipto.
And they set for him to only him and to them to alone them and for the Egyptians who were eating with him to alone them for not they were able! the Egyptians to eat with the Hebrews food for [is] an abomination it to Egypt.
33 Ang mga kapatid niya ay umupo sa tapat niya, ang panganay ayon sa kanyang karapatan, at ang pinaka bata ayon sa kanyang pagkabata. Ang mga lalaki ay sama-samang namangha.
And they sat down before him the firstborn according to birthright his and the young [brother] according to youth his and they looked in astonishment the men each to neighbor his.
34 Nagpadala si Jose ng mga parte sa kanila mula sa pagkain na nasa harapan niya. Pero ang parte ng kay Benjamin ay limang beses ang dami kaysa sa kanyang mga kapatid. Sila'y nag inuman at nagpakasaya na kasama niya.
And someone took portions from with face his to them and it was great [the] portion of Benjamin more than [the] portions of all of them five hands and they drank and they became drunk with him.
