Genesis 48

1 And it came about after these things that someone said to Joseph, "Look, your father is sick." And taking with him his two sons, Manasseh and Ephraim, he went to Jacob.

Nda dooꞌ sa ma, atahori rema rafadꞌe Yusuf rae ama na namahedꞌi. De no ana nara ruꞌa se, Manase ma Efraim, reu seꞌu baꞌi Yakob na.

2 And someone reported to Jacob, and said, "Look, your son Joseph has come to you." Then Israel strengthened himself and sat up in the bed.

Yakob rena Yusuf se rema ma, ana naꞌamamateꞌ ao na endoꞌ sia koi.

3 And Jacob said to Joseph, "El Shaddai appeared to me at Luz in the land of Canaan and blessed me,

Ana nafadꞌe Yusuf nae, “Ana Usu e! Lamatualain koasa manaseli na, natudꞌu Ao na nema au mia kambo Lus sia rae Kanaꞌan. Sia naa, Ana helu au,

4 and said to me, 'Look, I will make you fruitful and multiply you, and I will make of you a company of peoples, and will give this land to your descendants after you as an everlasting possession.'

nae, ‘Dei fo au fee umbu-ana mara ramaheta, fo tititi-nonosi mara dadꞌi leo monaeꞌ. Ma nusaꞌ ia, Au fee neu tititi-nonosi mara, fo dadꞌi sira hata-heto na losa nduꞌu-dꞌoo na neu.’

5 And now your two sons, who were born to you in the land of Egypt before I came to you into Egypt, are mine; Ephraim and Manasseh will be mine, as Reuben and Simeon are.

De ia naa, ana ma Efraim no Manase, hak nara taꞌo ia: au uma sia Masir ia, ruꞌa se au umbu nggara. Mae onaꞌ naa o, ia naa, au tao se dadꞌi ana nggara, onaꞌ a Ruben ma Simeon.

6 And your offspring born to you after them will be yours. But in their inheritance they are to be called after the names of their brothers.

Te mete ma ho hambu anaꞌ fai, naa ho ana mara. Au nda tao se onaꞌ au ana nggara sa. De ara simbo hata-hetoꞌ mia aꞌa nara Manase no Efraim.

7 But as for me, when I came from Paddan Aram, Rachel died, in my sorrow, in the land of Canaan on the journey, when there was still some distance to go to Ephrath. And I buried her there on the way to Ephrath (that is, Bethlehem)."

Au tao taꞌo naa, fo musunedꞌa ina ma Rahel. Leleꞌ hai baliꞌ mia Mesopotamia misiꞌ Kanaꞌan, ina ma bꞌonggi de mate mia dalaꞌ taladꞌa na deka kambo Efrata sia rae Kanaꞌan. Leleꞌ naa, au susa ala seli. De au uꞌoi e sia dalaꞌ suu na nae nisiꞌ kambo Efrata.” (Kamboꞌ naa aleꞌ ia, ara babꞌae e, Betlehem.)

8 Then Israel saw Joseph's sons, and said, "Who are these?"

Yakob olaꞌ basa ma, ana botiꞌ mata na, nita Yusuf ana nara sia naa. Natane Yusuf nae, “We! Seka ana nara ia ra?”

9 And Joseph said to his father, "They are my sons, whom God has given me here." And he said, "Please bring them to me, so that I can bless them."

Yusuf nataa nae, “Anaꞌ ia ra, Lamatualain fee au sia Masir ia.” Yakob olaꞌ nae, “Mete ma taꞌo naa, naa mo se deka ro au, fo au hule-oꞌe Lamatualain fee papala-babꞌanggiꞌ neu se.”

10 Now the eyes of Israel were failing because of his age, so that he couldn't see. Then he brought them near to him, and he kissed them and embraced them.

Yakob lasiꞌ ena, de mata nara poke ena. Naa de ana nda nita malole sa. Yusuf no ana nara, deka ro Yakob, de ana holu ma idu se.

11 And Israel said to Joseph, "I did not expect to see your face, but look, God has let me see your offspring as well."

Ana olaꞌ no Yusuf nae, “Dꞌoo basa ia, au duꞌa na, nda undaa o nggo sa ena. Te ia naa, Lamatualain tao lenaꞌ naa fai, sambe au o feꞌe ita ana mara.”

12 Then Joseph brought them out from between his knees, and he bowed himself with his face to the ground.

Basa naa ma, Yusuf naꞌadꞌodꞌooꞌ ana nara mia Yakob, de sendeꞌ lululangga na ma beꞌutee losa rae, mia ama na matan.

13 And Joseph took them both, Ephraim in his right hand toward Israel's left hand, and Manasseh in his left hand toward Israel's right hand, and brought them near to him.

Basa boe ma Yusuf fela. Noꞌe nala ana nara de fee se rambariiꞌ deka ro aman. Ana ulu na, Manase, neu Yakob bobꞌoa onan, ma ana ka rua na, Efraim, neu Yakob bobꞌoa diin.

14 And Israel stretched out his right hand and placed it on Ephraim's head, who was the younger, and his left hand on Manasseh's head, crossing his hands, although Manasseh was the firstborn.

Yakob loo lima na fo hule-oꞌe fee se, te ana lali lima ona na neu Efraim langga na, ma lima dii na neu Manase langga na.

15 Then he blessed Joseph, and said, "The God before whom my fathers Abraham and Isaac walked, the God who has been my shepherd all my life to this day,

Ana hule-oꞌe noꞌe Lamatualain pala-banggi fee Yusuf nae, “Ho baꞌi Isak ma no ama na Abraham, ruꞌa se tungga Lamatualain hiihii-nanau na. Lamatualain o naꞌaboi au mia feꞌe soru ngga losa oras ia.

16 the Angel who has redeemed me from all evil, bless the boys. And may my name be carried on in them, and the names of my fathers Abraham and Isaac. And may they grow into a multitude upon the earth."

Ana mboꞌi au mia basa deꞌulakaꞌ ra. De au o oꞌe fo Ana pala banggi fee anaꞌ ia ra ro tititi-nonosi nara. Boe ma, mete ma ara hule-oe neu Lamatualain, ara afiꞌ liliiꞌ ingga baꞌi Abraham, baꞌi Isak, ma au nara ngga. Fo tititi-nonosi nara boe ramaheta, dadꞌi leo monaeꞌ sia raefafoꞌ ia.”

17 When Joseph saw that his father placed his right hand on the head of Ephraim, it displeased him, and he grasped his father's hand to move it from Ephraim's head to Manasseh's head.

Yusuf nita aman tao lima ona na neu Efraim langga na, de ana toꞌu aman lima na, ma lali nisiꞌ Manase langga na.

18 And Joseph said to his father, "Not so, my father, for this one is the firstborn. Put your right hand on his head."

Nafadꞌe ama na nae, “Amaꞌ e! Afiꞌ tao taꞌo naa. Te Efraim odꞌiꞌ. Eni nda ana uluꞌ sa. Amaꞌ musi tao lima ona ma sia Manase langga na ata. Huu naa, ana uluꞌ a hak na.”

19 But his father refused, and said, "I know, my son, I know. He also will become a people, and he also will be great. However, his younger brother will be greater than he, and his descendants will become a multitude of nations."

Te ama na Yakob nda nau sa. Olaꞌ nae, “Ana ngge. Au memaꞌ uhine. Te dei fo Manase dadꞌi manaseliꞌ, ma tititi-nonosi nara o ramaheta losa dadꞌi leo monaeꞌ. Te odꞌi na Efraim, dei fo lenaꞌ e fai. Tititi-nonosi nara, nae na seli losa ara dadꞌi leo hetar manaseliꞌ fai.”

20 So he blessed them that day, saying, "By you Israel will pronounce blessing, saying, 'God make you as Ephraim and as Manasseh.'" Thus he put Ephraim before Manasseh.

De ana nafadꞌe ana karuꞌaꞌ ra nae, “Dei fo mete ma atahori Israꞌel roꞌe Lamatualain pala banggi fee atahori, ara ingga hei ruꞌa nggi nara mara boe. Ara roꞌe rae, ‘Hule-huleꞌ a Lamatualain pala banggi fee nggo, onaꞌ a Ana fee Efraim no Manase.’” No taꞌo naa, Yakob ingga Efraim naran naꞌahuluꞌ aꞌan Manase naran.

21 Then Israel said to Joseph, "Look, I am about to die, but God will be with you, and God will bring you back from this land to the land of your fathers.

Boe ma Yakob nafadꞌe Yusuf nae, “Ana ngge! Nda dooꞌ sa, te au mate. Te dei fo Lamatualain tulu-fali hei, ma no baliꞌ hei misiꞌ bei-baꞌiꞌ mara nusa na.

22 Moreover, I give to you one portion more than your brothers, which I took out of the hand of the Amorites with my sword and with my bow."

Te ia naa, au fee nggo lenaꞌ odꞌi-aꞌa mara. Au fee seluꞌ nggo mbukuꞌ sia rae Kanaꞌan fo dalahulu na au haꞌi mia atahori Amori leleꞌ utati o se.”
