Dud'uit Fefeu' a 47
1 Basa ma, Yusuf no toronoo nara lima reu risiꞌ maneꞌ a. Ana nafadꞌe nae, “Ama maneꞌ! Au ama ngga no odꞌi-aꞌa nggara rema mia Kanaꞌan ena. Ara rema rendi banda hiek-lombo, sapi, ma sudꞌiꞌ a saa nara. Basa se sia Gosen ena.”
Then Joseph went in and told Pharaoh, and said, “My father and my brothers, with their flocks, their herds, and all that they own, have come out of the land of Canaan; and behold, they are in the land of Goshen.”
From among his brothers he took five men, and presented them to Pharaoh.
3 Boe ma maneꞌ a natane nae, “Hei ue-tatao ma saa?” Rataa rae, “Hai manatadꞌa onaꞌ hai bei-baꞌi mara.
Pharaoh said to his brothers, “What is your occupation?” They said to Pharaoh, “Your servants are shepherds, both we, and our fathers.”
4 Aleꞌ ia, sia rae Kanaꞌan ndoe-laꞌas naseliꞌ de nda hambu nanaat ma uru sa ena. Naa de, hai ima sia nusaꞌ ia fo leo miꞌitataaꞌ. Hai o mendi banda mara boe. De hai mae moꞌe ama maneꞌ, fo leo sia Gosen, fo miꞌiboi banda ra sia naa.”
They also said to Pharaoh, “We have come to live as foreigners in the land, for there is no pasture for your servants’ flocks. For the famine is severe in the land of Canaan. Now therefore, please let your servants dwell in the land of Goshen.”
5 Boe ma maneꞌ a nafadꞌe hihii-nanau na neu Yusuf nae, “Ia naa, ama ma no odꞌi-aꞌa mara sia ia ena.
Pharaoh spoke to Joseph, saying, “Your father and your brothers have come to you.
6 De ara bole tao nusaꞌ ia onaꞌ sira nusa na. Au uhine ngga, Gosen naa, mamana maloleꞌ sia nusaꞌ ia. De malole lenaꞌ ara leo siaꞌ a naa leo. Ma mete ma sira rahine tao-mataꞌ neu banda no maloleꞌ, naa, onaꞌ bee na ara tao-mataꞌ neu banda nggara sia naa boe.”
The land of Egypt is before you. Make your father and your brothers dwell in the best of the land. Let them dwell in the land of Goshen. If you know any able men among them, then put them in charge of my livestock.”
7 Basa naa ma, Yusuf natudꞌu ama na neu maneꞌ a. De Yakob hule-oꞌe neu Lamatualain, noꞌe papala-babꞌanggiꞌ fee maneꞌ a.
Joseph brought in Jacob, his father, and set him before Pharaoh; and Jacob blessed Pharaoh.
8 Basa naa ma, maneꞌ a natane e nae, “Amaꞌ too hira ena?”
Pharaoh said to Jacob, “How old are you?”
9 Yakob nataa nae, “Au usodꞌa too natun esa telu nulu ena, te au nda leo sia mamanaꞌ esaꞌ a sa. Au bei-baꞌi nggara o onaꞌ naa boe. Te au too ngga memaꞌ eꞌekuꞌ lenaꞌ se. Ma sofeꞌ no doidꞌosoꞌ.”
Jacob said to Pharaoh, “The years of my pilgrimage are one hundred thirty years. The days of the years of my life have been few and evil. They have not attained to the days of the years of the life of my fathers in the days of their pilgrimage.”
10 Basa de Yakob natea maneꞌ a. Ana nda feꞌe lao sa, te ana noꞌe Lamatualain fee papala-babꞌanggiꞌ neu maneꞌ a fai.
Jacob blessed Pharaoh, and went out from the presence of Pharaoh.
11 Yusuf tungga maneꞌ a oꞌola na, de natudꞌu mamanaꞌ fee se sia Gosen. Mamanaꞌ naa maloleꞌ. (Dei de ara babꞌae mamanaꞌ naa ‘Rameses’.) Basa de Yusuf ama na no odi-aꞌa nara leo rakandoo sia naa.
Joseph placed his father and his brothers, and gave them a possession in the land of Egypt, in the best of the land, in the land of Rameses, as Pharaoh had commanded.
12 Yusuf o banggi-bꞌae nanaat fee ama na, odi-aꞌa nara, ro basa sao-ana nara, tungga sira ume isi nara dedꞌesi nara.
Joseph provided his father, his brothers, and all of his father’s household with bread, according to the sizes of their families.
13 Leleꞌ naa, ndoe-laꞌas manaseliꞌ, de sia bee-bꞌee nanaat nese. Mia Masir losa Kanaꞌan atahori ra masaloe ena. Ara nda tao rala saa-saa saꞌ boe, huu ndoe ritaꞌ a mamate nara.
There was no bread in all the land; for the famine was very severe, so that the land of Egypt and the land of Canaan fainted by reason of the famine.
14 Naa de, atahori mia basa mamanaꞌ sia Masir no Kanaꞌan, rema hasa nanaat sia Yusuf. Ana naduru doiꞌ ra, de neu mbedꞌa sia maneꞌ a ume na.
Joseph gathered up all the money that was found in the land of Egypt, and in the land of Canaan, for the grain which they bought: and Joseph brought the money into Pharaoh’s house.
15 Dꞌoo-dꞌoo ma, atahori Masir ro Kanaꞌan ra doi nara basa se ena. De ara nda hasa rala nanaat sa ena. Ara risiꞌ Yusuf, ma roꞌe rae, “Ama fetor e! Fee hai nanaat dei, fo hai afiꞌ mate ndoes. Te basa hai doi mara ena.”
When the money was all spent in the land of Egypt, and in the land of Canaan, all the Egyptians came to Joseph, and said, “Give us bread, for why should we die in your presence? For our money fails.”
16 Yusuf nataa nae, “Mete ma memaꞌ hei doiꞌ nese ena, naa, taꞌo ia: fee banda mara fo nggati no nanaat.”
Joseph said, “Give me your livestock; and I will give you food for your livestock, if your money is gone.”
17 De ara fee banda nara reu Yusuf, fo nggati no nanaat. Ara fee ndara, hiek-lombo, sapi no keledei nara. No taꞌo naa, ara rasodꞌa tooꞌ naa, huu Yusuf tao taꞌo naa.
They brought their livestock to Joseph, and Joseph gave them bread in exchange for the horses, and for the flocks, and for the herds, and for the donkeys: and he fed them with bread in exchange for all their livestock for that year.
18 Manafali ma, ara rema risiꞌ Yusuf rae, “Ama fetor e! Hai olaꞌ no matetuꞌ. Hai doi ma no banda mara, amaꞌ nggati mala basa se ena. Nda afiꞌ hela saa saꞌ boe. Helaꞌ a hai ao ma no rae ma.
When that year was ended, they came to him the second year, and said to him, “We will not hide from my lord how our money is all spent, and the herds of livestock are my lord’s. There is nothing left in the sight of my lord, but our bodies, and our lands.
19 Dadꞌi afiꞌ hela hai mate. Mete ma hai mate, seka mana tao mataꞌ neu rae ra? Malole lenaꞌ, ama fetor haꞌi mala hai dadꞌi ate. Haꞌi mala hai rae ma dadꞌi amaꞌ ena na boe. Ma fee fini-ngges fo hai sela fee amaꞌ. Hai bebengge ma, no rae a, amaꞌ nggati no nanaat. Sadꞌi hai afiꞌ mate!”
Why should we die before your eyes, both we and our land? Buy us and our land for bread, and we and our land will be servants to Pharaoh. Give us seed, that we may live, and not die, and that the land won’t be desolate.”
20 Huu ndoe-laꞌas boe fua, naa de basa atahori Masir ra seo hendiꞌ rae nara. De Yusuf hasa nala basa rae sia Masir, dadꞌi maneꞌ a enan.
So Joseph bought all the land of Egypt for Pharaoh, for every man of the Egyptians sold his field, because the famine was severe on them, and the land became Pharaoh’s.
21 Naa de, basa rauinggu Masir ra dadꞌi maneꞌ a ate na.
As for the people, he moved them to the cities from one end of the border of Egypt even to the other end of it.
22 Te mia basa e, Yusuf nda hasa malangga agama ra rae na sa, huu maneꞌ a fee se nanaat nakandooꞌ a. Naa de, ara nda parlu seo rae nara sa.
Only he didn’t buy the land of the priests, for the priests had a portion from Pharaoh, and ate their portion which Pharaoh gave them. That is why they didn’t sell their land.
23 Leleꞌ naa, Yusuf olaꞌ no manggaraun nara nae, “Ia naa hei dadꞌi maneꞌ a ate na. Basa hei rae ma, au hasa ala fee maneꞌ a ena. De mala fini-ngges ia ra, fo mii sela neu rae ra leo.
Then Joseph said to the people, “Behold, I have bought you and your land today for Pharaoh. Behold, here is seed for you, and you shall sow the land.
24 Dei fo oru naa, banggi neu lima. Babanggiꞌ esa mendi fee neu maneꞌ a. Hela babanggiꞌ haa, hei tao neu fini, ma mo ume isi mara mia.”
It will happen at the harvests, that you shall give a fifth to Pharaoh, and four parts will be your own, for seed of the field, for your food, for them of your households, and for food for your little ones.”
25 Ara rataa rae, “Amaꞌ fee masodꞌaꞌ nema hai. Huu naa, hai moꞌe makasi. Hai mae dadꞌi maneꞌ a ate nara.”
They said, “You have saved our lives! Let us find favor in the sight of my lord, and we will be Pharaoh’s servants.”
26 Yusuf tao hohoro-lalaneꞌ naa dadꞌi adat sia Masir. Mia basa are fo manggaraun ra oru, ara banggi neu lima. Babanggiꞌ esa fee neu maneꞌ a. Ma babanggiꞌ haa, ara soa. Akaꞌ a malangga agama ra rae nara, maneꞌ a nda hasa sa. Adat naa, feꞌe sia losa faiꞌ ia.
Joseph made it a statute concerning the land of Egypt to this day, that Pharaoh should have the fifth. Only the land of the priests alone didn’t become Pharaoh’s.
27 Eniꞌ a leleꞌ naa, atahori Israꞌel ra leo rakandoo sia Masir, sia rae Gosen. Ara ramasuꞌi, ma tititi-nonosi nara boe ramaheta.
Israel lived in the land of Egypt, in the land of Goshen; and they got themselves possessions therein, and were fruitful, and multiplied exceedingly.
28 Yakob feꞌe nasodꞌa too sanahulu hitu fai sia Masir. De ana too natun esa haa nulu hitu.
Jacob lived in the land of Egypt seventeen years. So the days of Jacob, the years of his life, were one hundred forty-seven years.
29 Fai mamate na deka-deka boe, ana noꞌe Yusuf de nafadꞌe nae, “Ana Usu e! Au duꞌa-duꞌa na nda doo sa ena, Lamatualain noꞌe baliꞌ au. Dadꞌi au oꞌe, mete ma sue au, naa, teꞌa fo afiꞌ muꞌoi au sia rae Masir ia.
The time came near that Israel must die, and he called his son Joseph, and said to him, “If now I have found favor in your sight, please put your hand under my thigh, and deal kindly and truly with me. Please don’t bury me in Egypt,
30 Musi mendi baliꞌ au ao sisi ngga, nisiꞌ bei-baꞌi tara mamana na. Muꞌoi au sia naa, huu naa, au hiihii ngga.” Yusuf nataa nae, “Malole, amaꞌ! Mete ma amaꞌ nau taꞌo naa, naa, au tunggaꞌ a.”
but when I sleep with my fathers, you shall carry me out of Egypt, and bury me in their burying place.” Joseph said, “I will do as you have said.”
31 Yakob olaꞌ seluꞌ nae, “Te, mete ma taꞌo naa, naa, oras ia ho teꞌa dei, mae ho tungga amaꞌ hihiin.” De Yusuf teꞌa tungga Yakob oꞌola na. Basa naa ma, Yakob sendeꞌ lululangga na neu koi ata de hule-oꞌe noꞌe makasi neu Lamatualain.
Israel said, “Swear to me,” and he swore to him. Then Israel bowed himself on the bed’s head.
