Genesis 43
1 Báyìí, ìyàn náà sì mú gidigidi ní ilẹ̀ náà.
Now great famine was in the land.
2 Nígbà tí wọ́n sì ti jẹ gbogbo ọkà tí wọ́n rà ní Ejibiti tan, baba wọn wí fún wọn pé, “Ẹ padà lọ ra oúnjẹ díẹ̀ si wá fún wa.”
And when they had eaten vp the vitaile, which they had brought from Egypt, their father sayd vnto them, Turne againe, and bye vs a little foode.
3 Ṣùgbọ́n Juda wí fún un pé, “Ọkùnrin náà tẹnumọ́ ọn nínú ìkìlọ̀ rẹ̀ fún wa pé, ‘Ẹ̀yin kì yóò rí ojúrere mi mọ́, àyàfi bí arákùnrin yín bá bá a yín wá’.
And Iudah answered him, saying, The man charged vs by an othe, saying, Neuer see my face, except your brother be with you.
4 Tí ìwọ yóò bá rán Benjamini arákùnrin wa lọ pẹ̀lú wa, a ó lọ ra oúnjẹ wá fún ọ.
If thou wilt sende our brother with vs, we will goe downe, and bye thee foode:
5 Ṣùgbọ́n bí ìwọ kò bá ni jẹ́ kí ó bá wa lọ, àwa kì yóò lọ, nítorí ọkùnrin náà sọ fún wa pé, ‘Ẹ̀yin kì yóò rí ojúrere mi mọ́ àyàfi bí arákùnrin yín bá bá a yín wá.’”
But if thou wilt not send him, we wil not go downe: for the man said vnto vs, Looke me not in the face, except your brother be with you.
6 Israẹli béèrè pé, “Èéṣe tí ẹ fi kó ìdààmú yìí bá mi nípa sísọ fún ọkùnrin náà wí pé ẹ ní arákùnrin mìíràn?”
And Israel sayd, Wherefore delt ye so euill with me, as to tell the man, whether ye had yet a brother or no?
7 Wọ́n dáhùn pé, “Ọkùnrin náà fi pẹ̀lẹ́pẹ̀lẹ́ wádìí lọ́wọ́ wa nípa ìdílé wa àti àwa fúnra wa. Ó béèrè pé, ‘Ṣe baba yín ṣì wà láààyè? Ǹjẹ́ ẹ tún ní arákùnrin mìíràn?’ A kàn dáhùn ìbéèrè rẹ̀ ni. Báwo ni a ṣe le mọ̀ pé yóò wí pé, ‘Ẹ mú arákùnrin yín wá’?”
And they answered, The man asked straitly of our selues and of our kinred, saying, Is your father yet aliue? haue ye any brother? And wee tolde him according to these wordes: could we knowe certainely that he would say, Bring your brother downe?
8 Juda sì wí fún Israẹli baba rẹ̀, “Jẹ́ kí ọmọkùnrin náà lọ pẹ̀lú mi, a ó sì lọ ní kíákíá, kí àwa àti ìwọ àti àwọn ọmọ wa le yè, kí a má sì kú.
Then sayde Iudah to Israel his father, Send the boy with mee, that we may rise and goe, and that we may liue and not dye, both we, and thou, and our children.
9 Èmi fúnra mi yóò ṣe onídùúró fún un, èmi ni kí o gbà pé o fi lé lọ́wọ́. Bí n kò bá sì mú un padà tọ̀ ọ́ wá, jẹ́ kí ẹ̀bi rẹ̀ kí ó jẹ́ tèmi ní gbogbo ọjọ́ ayé mi níwájú rẹ.
I wil be suertie for him: of mine hand shalt thou require him. If I bring him not to thee, and set him before thee, then let me beare the blame for euer.
10 Bí ó bá ṣe pé a kò fi falẹ̀ ni, àwa ìbá ti lọ, à bá sì ti padà ní ìgbà méjì ọ̀tọ̀ọ̀tọ̀.”
For except we had made this tarying, doutlesse by this we had returned the second time.
11 Nígbà náà ni Israẹli baba wọn wí fún wọn, “Bí ó bá rí bẹ́ẹ̀, èyí ni kí ẹ ṣe, ẹ mú àwọn ohun dáradára ilẹ̀ yìí lọ́wọ́ lọ bí ẹ̀bùn fún ọkùnrin náà—ìkunra díẹ̀, oyin díẹ̀, tùràrí àti òjìá, èso pisitakio àti èso almondi
Then their father Israel sayd vnto them, If it must needes be so now, do thus: take of the best fruites of the lande in your vessels, and bring the man a present, a little rosen, and a little hony, spices and myrrhe, nuttes, and almondes:
12 ìlọ́po owó méjì ni kí ẹ mú lọ́wọ́, nítorí ẹ gbọdọ̀ dá owó tí ẹ bá lẹ́nu àpò yín padà. Bóyá ẹnìkan ló ṣèèṣì fi síbẹ̀.
And take double money in your hande, and the money, that was brought againe in your sackes mouthes: cary it againe in your hand, lest it were some ouersight.
13 Ẹ mú arákùnrin yín lọ́wọ́ pẹ̀lú ki ẹ sì tọ arákùnrin náà lọ.
Take also your brother and arise, and go againe to the man.
14 Kí Ọlọ́run alágbára jẹ́ kí ẹ rí àánú gbà lọ́dọ̀ ọkùnrin náà kí ó ba à le jẹ́ kí arákùnrin yín tí ó wà lọ́hùn ún àti Benjamini padà wá pẹ̀lú yín. Ní tèmi, bí mo bá pàdánù àwọn ọmọ mi, n ó ṣọ̀fọ̀ wọn náà ni.”
And God almightie giue you mercie in the sight of the man, that hee may deliuer you your other brother, and Beniamin: but I shall be robbed of my childe, as I haue bene.
15 Nítorí náà wọ́n mú àwọn ẹ̀bùn náà àti owó ìlọ́po méjì àti Benjamini, wọ́n sì yára lọ sí ilẹ̀ Ejibiti, wọ́n sì fi ara wọn hàn níwájú Josẹfu.
Thus the men tooke this present, and tooke twise so much money in their hande with Beniamin, and rose vp, and went downe to Egypt and stoode before Ioseph.
16 Nígbà tí Josẹfu rí Benjamini pẹ̀lú wọn, ó sọ fún ìránṣẹ́ ilé rẹ̀, “Mú àwọn ọkùnrin wọ̀nyí lọ sí ilé mi, pa ẹran kí o sì ṣe àsè; wọn ó jẹun ọ̀sán pẹ̀lú mi.”
And whe Ioseph saw Beniamin with them, he sayde to his stewarde, Bring these men home and kill meate, and make ready: for the men shall eate with me at noone.
17 Ọkùnrin náà sì ṣe bí Josẹfu ti wí fún un, ó sì mú àwọn ọkùnrin náà lọ sí ilé Josẹfu.
And the man did as Ioseph bad, and brought the men vnto Iosephs house.
18 Ẹ̀rù sì ba àwọn ọkùnrin náà nígbà tí wọ́n mú wọn lọ sí ilé Josẹfu. Wọ́n rò ó pé, “A mú wa wá sí ìhín nítorí owó tí a fi sí inú àpò wa ní ìgbà àkọ́kọ́. Ó fẹ́ bá wa jà, kí ó mú wa lẹ́rú kí ó sì gba àwọn kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ wa.”
Nowe when the men were brought into Iosephs house, they were afrayd, and sayd, Because of the money, that came in our sackes mouthes at the first time, are we brought, that hee may picke a quarrell against vs, and lay some thing to our charge, and bring vs in bondage and our asses.
19 Nítorí náà wọ́n lọ bá ìránṣẹ́ Josẹfu, wọ́n sì ba sọ̀rọ̀ ní ẹnu-ọ̀nà àbáwọlé ilé náà.
Therefore came they to Iosephs stewarde, and communed with him at the doore of ye house.
20 Wọ́n wí pé, “Jọ̀wọ́ ọ̀gá, ní òtítọ́ ni àwa ti sọ̀kalẹ̀ síyìn-ín láti wá ra oúnjẹ ní ìṣáájú.
And said, Oh syr, we came in deede down hither at the first time to bye foode,
21 Ṣùgbọ́n níbi tí a ti dúró ní ọ̀nà láti sùn ní alẹ́, nígbà tí a tú àpò oúnjẹ wa, ẹnìkọ̀ọ̀kan wa bá owó oúnjẹ tirẹ̀ tí ó rà lẹ́nu àpò láì lé, láì dín. Nítorí náà òun nìyí, a ti mu un padà wá pẹ̀lú wa.
And as wee came to an ynne and opened our sackes, behold, euery mans money was in his sackes mouth, euen our money in full weight, but we haue brought it againe in our handes.
22 A sì tún mú owó mìíràn lọ́wọ́ láti fi ra oúnjẹ. A ò mọ ẹni tí ó fi owó wa sí ẹnu àpò.”
Also other money haue we brought in our handes to bye foode, but we cannot tell, who put our money in our sackes.
23 Ó sì wí fún wọn pé, “Àlàáfíà ni fún yín, ẹ má bẹ̀rù, Ọlọ́run yín, àní Ọlọ́run baba yín ni ó fi ìṣúra sí inú àpò yín; mo rí owó tí ẹ san gbà.” Nígbà náà ni ó mú Simeoni jáde tọ̀ wọ́n wá.
And he said, Peace be vnto you, feare not: your God and the God of your father hath giuen you that treasure in your sackes, I had your money: and he brought forth Simeon to them.
24 Ìránṣẹ́ náà mú àwọn ọkùnrin náà lọ sí ilé Josẹfu, ó fún wọn ní omi láti fi wẹ ẹsẹ̀ wọn nu, ó sì fún àwọn kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ wọn lóúnjẹ pẹ̀lú.
So the man led them into Iosephs house, and gaue them water to wash their feete, and gaue their asses prouender.
25 Wọ́n pèsè ẹ̀bùn wọn sílẹ̀ fún Josẹfu di ọ̀sán nígbà tí yóò dé, nítorí wọ́n ti gbọ́ pé ibẹ̀ ni àwọn yóò ti jẹun ọ̀sán.
And they made ready their present against Ioseph came at noone, (for they heard say, that they should eate bread there)
26 Nígbà tí Josẹfu dé sí ilé, wọ́n kó àwọn ẹ̀bùn tí wọ́n ti mú wá fún un, wọ́n sì wólẹ̀ níwájú rẹ̀.
When Ioseph came home, they brought the present into the house to him, which was in their handes, and bowed downe to the grounde before him.
27 Ó béèrè àlàáfíà wọn, ó sì wí pé, “Ṣé àlàáfíà ni baba yín wà, baba arúgbó tí ẹ sọ̀rọ̀ rẹ̀ fún mi, ṣé ó sì wà láààyè?”
And he asked them of their prosperitie, and sayd, Is your father the olde man, of whome ye tolde me, in good health? is he yet aliue?
28 Wọ́n dáhùn pé, “Ìránṣẹ́ rẹ, baba wa sì wà láààyè, àlàáfíà sì ni ó wà pẹ̀lú.” Wọn sì tẹríba láti bọ̀wọ̀ fún un.
Who answered, Thy seruant our father is in good health, he is yet aliue: and they bowed downe, and made obeysance.
29 Bí ó ti wò yíká tí ó sì rí Benjamini àbúrò rẹ̀, tí í ṣe ọmọ ìyá rẹ̀ gan an. Ó béèrè lọ́wọ́ wọn pé, “Ṣe àbúrò yín tí ó jẹ́ àbíkẹ́yìn tí ẹ sọ fún mi nípa rẹ̀ nìyìí?” Ó sì tún wí pe, “Kí Ọlọ́run kí ó ṣàánú fún ọ, ọmọ mi.”
And he lifting vp his eyes, beheld his brother Beniamin his mothers sonne, and sayde, Is this your yonger brother, of whome ye tolde me? And he said, God be merciful vnto thee, my sone.
30 Ọkàn rẹ̀ sì fà sí i gidigidi nígbà tí ó rí arákùnrin rẹ̀, nítorí náà Josẹfu yára jáde láti wá ibi tí ó ti le sọkún. Ó lọ sí iyàrá rẹ̀, ó sì sọkún níbẹ̀.
And Ioseph made haste (for his affection was inflamed towarde his brother, and sought where to weepe) and entred into his chamber, and wept there.
31 Lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí ó ti bọ́jú tan, ó jáde wá, ó ṣe ọkàn ọkùnrin, ó sì wí fún wọn pé, kí wọ́n gbé oúnjẹ wá kí wọ́n le è jẹun.
Afterward he washed his face, and came out, and refrained himselfe, and sayd, Set on meate.
32 Wọ́n gbé oúnjẹ tirẹ̀ fún un lọ́tọ̀, àti fún àwọn ará Ejibiti tí ó wá ba jẹun náà lọ́tọ̀, nítorí ará Ejibiti kò le bá ará Heberu jẹun nítorí ìríra pátápátá ló jẹ́ fún àwọn Ejibiti.
And they prepared for him by himselfe, and for them by themselues, and for the Egyptians, which did eate with him, by themselues, because the Egyptians might not eate bread with the Ebrewes: for that was an abomination vnto the Egyptians.
33 A mú àwọn ọkùnrin náà jókòó lẹ́gbẹ̀ẹ́ rẹ̀, bí wọ́n ṣe dàgbà sí, láti orí ẹ̀gbọ́n pátápátá dé orí èyí tí ó kéré pátápátá, wọ́n sì ń wo ara wọn tìyanu tìyanu.
So they sate before him: the eldest according vnto his age, and the yongest according vnto his youth. and the men marueiled among themselues.
34 A sì bu oúnjẹ fún wọn láti orí tábìlì Josẹfu. Oúnjẹ Benjamini sì tó ìlọ́po márùn-ún ti àwọn tókù. Wọ́n ń jẹ, wọ́n sì ń mu lọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀ láìsí ìdíwọ́.
And they tooke meases from before him, and sent to them: but Beniamins mease was fiue times so much as any of theirs: and they drunke, and had of the best drinke with him.
