< Genesis 45 >
1 Josẹfu kò sì le è pa á mọ́ra mọ́ níwájú gbogbo àwọn tí ó dúró tì í. Ó sì sọkún sókè tó bẹ́ẹ̀ tí àwọn tí ó wà ní àyíká gbọ́ ohun ẹkún rẹ̀. “Jẹ́ kí gbogbo ènìyàn kúrò ní ọ̀dọ̀ mi.” Kò sì sí ẹnikẹ́ni lọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀ nígbà tí ó fi ara rẹ̀ hàn fún àwọn arákùnrin rẹ̀.
And Joseph could not refrain himself when all were standing by him, but said, Dismiss all from me; and no one stood near Joseph, when he made himself known to his brethren.
2 Ó sì sọkún sókè kíkankíkan tó bẹ́ẹ̀ tí àwọn Ejibiti gbọ́ ohùn ẹkún rẹ̀, àwọn ilé Farao pẹ̀lú sì gbọ́ nípa rẹ̀.
And he uttered his voice with weeping; and all the Egyptians heard, and it was reported to the house of Pharao.
3 Josẹfu wí fún àwọn arákùnrin rẹ̀ pé, “Èmi ni Josẹfu! Ṣe baba mi sì wà láààyè?” Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn arákùnrin rẹ̀ kò le è dá a lóhùn nítorí ẹ̀rù bà wọ́n gidigidi, ẹnu sì yà wọ́n níwájú rẹ̀.
And Joseph said to his brethren, I am Joseph; does my father yet live? And his brethren could not answer him, for they were troubled.
4 Nígbà náà ni Josẹfu wí fún àwọn arákùnrin rẹ̀ pé, “Ẹ súnmọ́ ọ̀dọ̀ mi.” Nígbà tí wọ́n sì ti ṣe bẹ́ẹ̀, ó wí pé, “Èmi ni Josẹfu arákùnrin yín tí ẹ tà sí ilẹ̀ Ejibiti!
And Joseph said to his brethren, Draw near to me; and they drew near; and he said, I am your brother Joseph, whom you sold into Egypt.
5 Ṣùgbọ́n báyìí, ẹ má ṣe banújẹ́, ẹ má sì ṣe bínú sí ara yín ní títà tí ẹ tà mí sí ìhín, nítorí, ọ̀nà àti gba ẹ̀mí yín là ni Ọlọ́run ṣe rán mi sí ìhín ṣáájú yín.
Now then be not grieved, and let it not seem hard to you that you sold me hither, for God sent me before you for life.
6 Ìyàn tí ó ti mú láti ọdún méjì sẹ́yìn yìí yóò tẹ̀síwájú fún ọdún márùn-ún sí i nínú èyí tí ẹnikẹ́ni kò ní gbìn, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni wọn kò ni kórè.
For this second year there is famine on the earth, and there are yet five years remaining, in which there is to be neither ploughing, nor mowing.
7 Ṣùgbọ́n Ọlọ́run rán mi ṣáájú yín sí ìhín láti da irú-ọmọ yín sí fún un yín lórí ilẹ̀ ayé àti láti fi ìgbàlà ńlá gba ẹ̀mí yín là.
For God sent me before you, that there might be left to you a remnant upon the earth, even to nourish a great remnant of you.
8 “Nítorí náà, kì í ṣe ẹ̀yin ni ó rán mi wá sí ibí yìí, bí kò ṣe Ọlọ́run. Ó fi mí ṣe baba, Olùdámọ̀ràn fún Farao, olúwa fún gbogbo ilé Farao àti alákòóso gbogbo ilẹ̀ Ejibiti.
Now then you did not send me hither, but God; and he has made me as a father of Pharao, and lord of all his house, and ruler of all the land of Egypt.
9 Nísinsin yìí, ẹ yára padà sọ́dọ̀ baba mi kí ẹ sì wí fun un pé, èyí ni ohun tí Josẹfu ọmọ rẹ wí, Ọlọ́run ti fi mí ṣe olúwa fún gbogbo ilẹ̀ Ejibiti, ẹ sọ̀kalẹ̀ wá láì jáfara.
Hasten, therefore, and go up to my father, and say to him, These things says your son Joseph; God has made me lord of all the land of Egypt; come down therefore to me, and wait not.
10 Ìwọ yóò gbé ní agbègbè Goṣeni, ìwọ kì yóò jìnnà sí mi, àwọn ọmọ rẹ àti àwọn ọmọ ọmọ rẹ, àwọn agbo ẹran rẹ àti agbo màlúù rẹ àti gbogbo ohun tí ìwọ ní.
And you shall dwell in the land of Gesem of Arabia; and you shall be near me, you and your sons, and your sons' sons, your sheep and your oxen, and whatever things are your.
11 Èmi yóò pèsè fún yín níbẹ̀. Nítorí ó ṣì ku ọdún márùn-ún gbáko ti ìyàn yóò fi mú. Kí ìwọ àti ilé rẹ àti ohun tí í ṣe tìrẹ má ba à di aláìní.
And I will nourish you there: for the famine is yet for five years; lest you be consumed, and your sons, and all your possessions.
12 “Ẹ̀yin fúnra yín àti Benjamini arákùnrin mi pẹ̀lú rí i pé, lóòótọ́ lóòótọ́, èmi Josẹfu ni mo ń bá a yín sọ̀rọ̀.
Behold, your eyes see, and the eyes of my brother Benjamin, that it is my mouth that speaks to you.
13 Ẹ sọ fún baba mi nípa gbogbo ọlá tí a fún mi ní ilẹ̀ Ejibiti àti ohun gbogbo tí ẹ̀yin ti rí, kí ẹ sì mú baba mi tọ̀ mí wá sí ìhín yìí kíákíá.”
Report, therefore, to my father all my glory in Egypt, and all things that you have seen, and make haste and bring down my father hither.
14 Nígbà náà ni ó dì mọ́ Benjamini arákùnrin rẹ̀, ó sì sọkún, Benjamini náà sì dì mọ́ ọn, pẹ̀lú omijé lójú.
And he fell on his brother Benjamin's neck, and wept on him; and Benjamin wept on his neck.
15 Ó sì tún fẹnu ko gbogbo àwọn arákùnrin rẹ̀ lẹ́nu, ó sì sọkún sí wọn lára. Lẹ́yìn èyí, Josẹfu àti àwọn arákùnrin rẹ̀ sọ̀rọ̀ pọ̀.
And he kissed all his brethren, and wept on them; and after these things his brethren spoke to him.
16 Nígbà tí ìròyìn náà dé ààfin Farao pé àwọn arákùnrin Josẹfu dé, inú Farao àti àwọn ìjòyè rẹ̀ dùn.
And the report was carried into the house of Pharao, saying, Joseph's brethren are come; and Pharao was glad, and his household.
17 Farao wí fún Josẹfu pé, “Wí fún àwọn arákùnrin rẹ pé, ‘Èyí ni kí ẹ ṣe, ẹ di ẹrù lé ẹranko yín kí ẹ sì padà sí ilẹ̀ Kenaani,
And Pharao said to Joseph, Say to your brethren, Do this; fill your waggons, and depart into the land of Chanaan.
18 kí ẹ sì mú baba yín àti ìdílé yín tọ̀ mí wá. Èmi yóò fún un yín ní ibi tí ó dára jùlọ ní ilẹ̀ Ejibiti, ẹ̀yin yóò sì le è gbádùn ilẹ̀ yìí.’
And take up your father, and your possessions, and come to me; and I will give you of all the goods of Egypt, and you shall eat the marrow of the land.
19 “A pàṣẹ fún ọ láti sọ fún wọn pé, ‘Ẹ ṣe èyí. ẹ mú kẹ̀kẹ́ ẹrù láti ilẹ̀ Ejibiti fún àwọn ọmọ yín àti àwọn aya yín. Kí ẹ sì mú baba yín tọ mí wá.
And do you charge them thus; that they should take for them waggons out of the land of Egypt, for your little ones, and for your wives; and take up your father, and come.
20 Ẹ má ṣe àníyàn nípa ohun ìní yín nítorí èyí tí ó dára jù nínú ilẹ̀ Ejibiti yóò jẹ́ tiyín.’”
And be not sparing in regard to your property, for all the good of Egypt shall be yours.
21 Àwọn ọmọ Israẹli sì ṣe èyí. Josẹfu fún wọn ni kẹ̀kẹ́ ẹrù bí Farao ti pàṣẹ, ó sì fún wọn ní oúnjẹ fún ìrìnàjò wọn pẹ̀lú.
And the children of Israel did so; and Joseph gave to them waggons, according to the words spoken by king Pharao; and he gave them provision for the journey.
22 Ó fún ẹni kọ̀ọ̀kan wọn ní aṣọ tuntun. Ṣùgbọ́n Benjamini ni ó fún ní ọ̀ọ́dúnrún ẹyọ owó idẹ fàdákà àti ìpààrọ̀ aṣọ márùn-ún.
And he gave to them all two sets of raiment apiece; but to Benjamin he gave three hundred pieces of gold, and five changes of raiment.
23 Àwọn nǹkan wọ̀nyí ni ó kó ránṣẹ́ sí baba rẹ̀: kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ mẹ́wàá tí ó ru àwọn ohun mèremère ilẹ̀ Ejibiti àti abo kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ mẹ́wàá tí ó ru ọkà àti oríṣìíríṣìí oúnjẹ.
And to his father he sent [presents] at the same rate, and ten asses, bearing some of all the good things of Egypt, and ten mules, bearing bread for his father for your journey.
24 Nígbà náà ni ó rán àwọn arákùnrin rẹ̀ lọ, bí wọ́n ṣe ń pínyà, ó wí fún wọn pé, “Ẹ má ṣe jà ní ọ̀nà o!”
And he sent away his brethren, and they went; and he said to them, Be not angry by the way.
25 Báyìí ni wọ́n jáde kúrò ní ilẹ̀ Ejibiti wá sí ọ̀dọ̀ Jakọbu baba wọn ní ilẹ̀ Kenaani.
And they went up out of Egypt, and came into the land of Chanaan, to Jacob their father.
26 Wọn wí fún un pé, “Josẹfu ṣì wà láààyè! Kódà òun ni alákòóso ilẹ̀ Ejibiti.” Ẹnu ya Jakọbu, kò sì gbà wọ́n gbọ́.
And they reported to him, saying, Your son Joseph is living, and he is ruler over all the land of Egypt; and Jacob was amazed, for he did not believe them.
27 Ṣùgbọ́n nígbà tí wọ́n sọ ohun gbogbo tí Josẹfu ti sọ fún wọn fún un tí ó sì rí kẹ̀kẹ́ ẹrù tí Josẹfu fi ránṣẹ́ láti gbé e padà wá, iyè Jakọbu, baba wọn sọ.
But they spoke to him all the words uttered by Joseph, whatever he said to them; and having seen the chariots which Joseph sent to take him up, the spirit of Jacob their father revived.
28 Israẹli sì wí pé, “Mo gbà dájúdájú wí pé, Josẹfu ọmọ mi wà láààyè. Èmi ó lọ rí i kí n tó kú.”
And Israel said, It is a great thing for me if Joseph my son is yet alive. I will go and see him before I die.
