1 Amaiba: le, Yousefe da yolalali biyale gala amo Felouma oule asi. E da Felouma amane sia: i, “Na ada amola nolalali da Ga: ina: ne soge fisili guiguda: misi. Ilia lai gebo amola gagui liligi huluane oule misi. Ilia da wali Gousiene sogega esala.”
Then Joseph went in and told Pharaoh, “My father and my brothers, their flocks, their herds, and all that they own, have arrived from the land of Canaan. See, they are in the land of Goshen.”
2 Amalalu, e da yolalali ili Felouma gousa: ma: ne oule misi.
He took five of his brothers and introduced them to Pharaoh.
3 Felou da ilima amane adole ba: i, “Dilia da adi hawa: hamosala: ?” Ilia da bu adole i, “Ninia da ninia aowalali defele, lai gebo fi ouligisu dunu esala.
Pharaoh said to his brothers, “What is your occupation?” They said to Pharaoh, “Your servants are shepherds, as our ancestors.”
4 Ninia soge Ga: ina: ne amoga ha: i bagade ganebeba: le, ninia lai gebo da gisi hamedafa. Amaiba: le, ninia da amo soge guiguda: fimusa: misi. Ninia da Gousiene soge amo ganodini fimusa: , nini da dima ha: giwane edegesa.”
Then they said to Pharaoh, “We come as temporary residents in the land. There is no pasture for your servants' flocks, because the famine is severe in the land of Canaan. So now, please let your servants live in the land of Goshen.”
5 Felou da Yousefema amane sia: i, “Dia eda amola diolalali ili da doaga: beba: le,
Then Pharaoh spoke to Joseph, saying, “Your father and your brothers have come to you.
6 Idibidi soge huluane da ilia soge. Gousiene soge da Idibidi soge bisili noga: i gala. Ilia da amogai fimu da defea. Amola ilia fi amo ganodini lai gebo ouligisu dunu ida: iwane esalea, defea, amo dunu da na lai gebo ouligima: ne sia: ma.”
The land of Egypt is before you. Settle your father and your brothers in the best region, the land of Goshen. If you know any capable men among them, put them in charge of my livestock.”
7 Amalalu, Yousefe da ea ada Ya: igobe amo Felouma gousa: musa: oule misi. Ya: igobe da Felouma amane sia: i, “Gode da di hahawane dogolegele fidimu da defea.”
Then Joseph brought in Jacob his father and presented him to Pharaoh. Jacob blessed Pharaoh.
8 Felou da Ya: igobema amane sia: i, “Dia lalelegele, ode habodayane esalabela: ?”
Pharaoh said to Jacob, “How long have you lived?”
9 Ya: igobe da bu adole i, “Na da wali ode 130 amoga udigili lalu. Na aowalali da ode bagohame hahawane lalu. Be na esalebe ode da bagahame, amola se nabasu galu.”
Jacob said to Pharaoh, “The years of my travels are a hundred and thirty. The years of my life have been few and painful. They have not been as long as those of my ancestors.”
10 Ya: igobe da Felouma Gode e hahawane dogolegele fidima: ne amola “asigibio”, sia: nanu, yolesili asi.
Then Jacob blessed Pharaoh and went out from his presence.
11 Amalalu, Yousefe da fidibiba: le, ea ada amo yolalali ilia da Idibidi ganodini hahawane fi. Ilia da Felou ea sia: defele, moilai La: mesisi amo gadenene fi galu.
Then Joseph settled his father and his brothers. He gave them a territory in the land of Egypt, the best of the land, in the land of Rameses, as Pharaoh had commanded.
12 Yousefe da ea ada amola yolalali ilima amola ea ada fi huluane amola mano fa: nodafa lalelegei, ilima ha: i manu i. Ha: Bagade
Joseph provided food for his father, his brothers, and all his father's household, according the number of their dependents.
13 Soge huluane amo ganodini da ha: bagade ba: i. Ha: i manu hamedafa ba: i. Idibidi dunu amola Ga: ina: ne dunu huluane da ha: iba: le, gasa hame ba: i.
Now there was no food in all the land; for the famine was severe. The land of Egypt and the land of Canaan wasted away because of the famine.
14 Ilia da gagoma amola bali amo muniga lai. Amo muni Yousefe da Felou ea diasuga gaguli asi.
Joseph gathered all the money that was in the land of Egypt and in the land of Canaan, by selling grain to the inhabitants. Then Joseph brought the money to Pharaoh's palace.
15 Muni huluane Idibidi amola Ga: ina: ne amo ganodini ebelei ba: loba, Idibidi dunu da Yousefema misini, amane sia: i, “Ninima ha: i manu ima! Nini bogogia: sa: besa: le fidima! Ninia muni da ebelei dagoi!”
When all the money of the lands of Egypt and Canaan was spent, all the Egyptians came to Joseph saying, “Give us food! Why should we die in your presence because our money is gone?”
16 Yousefe da ilima bu adole i, “Dilia lai gebo oule misa. Dilia muni ebeleiba: le, na da dilia lai gebo bidi lale, ha: i manu amoga dabemu.”
Joseph said, “If your money is gone, bring your livestock and I will give you food in exchange for your livestock.”
17 Amaiba: le, ilia da ilia lai gebo amo Yousefema oule misi amola e da ilia hosi, sibi, goudi, bulamagau, dougi, amo lale, ilima ha: i manu dabe i.
So they brought their livestock to Joseph. Joseph gave them food in exchange for the horses, for the flocks, for the herds, and for the donkeys. He fed them with bread in exchange for all their livestock that year.
18 Amo ode da gidigili, eno ba: loba, ilia da Yousefema misini amane sia: i “Ninia muni da ebelei dagoi amola ninia lai gebo huluane di da lai dagoi. Amo ninia da dima hame wamolegemu. Wali dima imunu liligi da hame. Ninia da: i hodo amola ninia soge fawane diala.
When that year was ended, they came to him the next year and said to him, “We will not hide from my master that our money is all gone, and the herds of cattle are my master's. There is nothing left in the sight of my master, except our bodies and our land.
19 Nini bogogia: sa: besa: le, nini fidima. Ninia soge da ha: i manu mae bugili, udigili dialumu da defea hame. Ninia da: i hodo amola ninia soge, bidi lama. Ninia da Felou ea udigili hawa: hamosu dunu esalumu amola e da ninia soge gagumu. Nini mae bogoma: ne ha: i manu ninima ima. Amola ninia sogega bu sagama: ne, hawa: bugima: ne ninima ima.”
Why should we die before your eyes, both we and our land? Buy us and our land in exchange for food, and we and our land will be servants to Pharaoh. Give us seed that we may live and not die, and that the land may not become desolate.”
20 Yousefe da soge huluane Idibidi ganodini amo bidi lale, Felouma i. Ha: da gasa bagadeba: le Idibidi dunu huluanedafa da ilia soge gagumu hamedeiwane ba: i. Soge huluane da Felou ea soge fawane ba: i.
So Joseph bought all the land of Egypt for Pharaoh. For every Egyptian sold his field, because the famine was very severe. In this way, the land became Pharaoh's.
21 Amola Yousefe da Idibidi dunu huluanedafa, amo udigili hawa: hamosu dunu hamoi.
As for the people, he made them slaves from one end of Egypt's border to the other end.
22 Soge afae afae, e da hame bidi lai. Amo da gobele salasu dunu ilia soge. Felou da ili esaloma: ne, muni ilima i. Amaiba: le, ilia da ili soge hame bidi lai.
It was only the land of the priests that Joseph did not buy, because the priests were given an allowance. They ate from the allotment which Pharaoh gave them. Therefore they did not sell their land.
23 Yousefe da dunu huluane ilima amane sia: i, “Ba: ma! Na da Felouma ima: ne, dilia da: i hodo amola dilia soge bidi lai dagoi. Amo hawa: dilia sogega bu sagamusa: , amo lama.
Then Joseph said to the people, “See, I have bought you and your land today for Pharaoh. Now here is seed for you, and you will plant the land.
24 Be ha: i manu faisu eso amoga dilia gagoma amola bali biyale fifili, afadafa Felouma ima. Eno hame i diala amo dili hawa: bugimusa: amola dilia amola dilia sosogo fi, amo moma: ne lama.”
At the harvest, you must give a fifth to Pharaoh, and four parts will be your own, for seed of the field and for food for your households and your children.”
25 Ilia bu adole i, “Di da nini esalusu gaga: i dagoi. Di da nini noga: le fidi. Ninia Felou ea udigili hawa: hamosu dunu esalumu da defea.”
They said, “You have saved our lives. May we find favor in your eyes. We will be Pharaoh's servants.”
26 Amaiba: le, Yousefe da sema hamoi, amane, ‘Idibidi soge ganodini, ha: i manu fai huluane ilia da biyale fifili, amo afadafa Felouma ima: ne sia: i. Amo sema da wali diala. Be Felou da gobele salasu dunu ilia soge fawane hame lalegagui.
So Joseph made it a statute which is in effect in the land of Egypt to this day, that one-fifth belongs to Pharaoh. Only the land of the priests did not become Pharaoh's.
27 Isala: ili dunu da Idibidi ganodini Gousiene sogega esalu, mano bagohame lai, amola bagade gagui dunu ba: i.
So Israel lived in the land of Egypt, in the land of Goshen. His people gained possessions there. They were fruitful and multiplied greatly.
28 Ya: igobe da Idibidi soge ganodini ode 17 esalu. E da ode 147 amoga doaga: i.
Jacob lived in the land of Egypt seventeen years, so the years of Jacob's life were one hundred forty-seven years.
29 Ea bogomu eso gadenei ba: loba, e da eagofe Yousefe amo misa: ne sia: ne, ema amane sia: i, “Dia lobo amo na masele hagudu ligisima. Nama dafawanedafa ilegele sia: ma, amo di da na da: i hodo Idibidi soge ganodini hame uli dogomu.
When the time approached for Israel to die, he called his son Joseph and said to him, “If now I have found favor in your eyes, put your hand under my thigh, and show me faithfulness and trustworthiness. Please do not bury me in Egypt.
30 Na da na aowalali amo ilia uli dogosu amo gadenene dialumu hanai galebe. Na da: i hodo di gaguli asili, ilia uli dogoi sogebi amoga na uli dogoma.” Yousefe da bu adole i, “Na da dia sia: i defele hamomu.”
When I sleep with my fathers, you will carry me out of Egypt and bury me in my forefathers' burial place.” Joseph said, “I will do as you have said.”
31 Ya: igobe da amane sia: i, “Gode ba: ma: ne, di da dia sia: i defele hamoma: ne dafawane ilegele sia: ma!” Yousefe da amo dafawane ilegele sia: i, amola Ya: igobe da ea dia heda: su da: iya nodoi.
Israel said, “Swear to me,” and Joseph swore to him. Then Israel bowed down at the head of his bed.
