1 Jekopu'ma Isipi moparega witi me'ne hazankema nentahino'a, ne'mofavre naga'a anage huno zamasmi'ne, Na'a higeta ovufi avufina nehaze?
Now Jacob became aware that there was grain in Egypt. He said to his sons, “Why do you look at one another?”
2 Isipi mopafina witi ne'zana me'ne hazage'na antahuanki, ofrita manisunema hanuta vuta ana moparegati ne'zana ome mizaseta eho.
He said, “See here, I have heard that there is grain in Egypt. Go down there and buy for us from there so we may live and not die.”
3 Hige'za Josefena 10ni'a afuhe'za witi miza senaku Isipi urami'naze.
Joseph's ten brothers went down to buy grain from Egypt.
4 Hianagi Jekopu'a Josefe negna Benzameni'ma hazenke erizanku koro nehuno, atregeno afuhe'zanena ovu'ne.
But Benjamin, Joseph's brother, Jacob did not send with his brothers, for he feared that harm might come to him.
5 Hagi zamaga'zamo' a ana zanke Kenani mopafinena hige'za Israeli amohe'za ke hiaza hu'za witi ne'za miza senaku ruga'a vahe'ene urami'naze.
The sons of Israel came to buy among those who came, for the famine was in the land of Canaan.
6 Hagi Josefe'a ana mopafina gavana manino kegava kri'nege'za agritetike maka ana mopafi vahe'mo'za ne'zana eme miza se'naze. Hagi Josefe afuhe'za agrite e'za zamarena re'za kepri mopafi hu'naze.
Now Joseph was the governor over the land. He was the one who sold to all the people of the land. Joseph's brothers came and bowed down to him with their faces to the ground.
7 Josefe'a afuhe'i zamavugosafi nezmageno, onke vahekna nehuno hanave'ane ke huzmanteno anage hu'ne, tamagra igati e'naze? Hige'za zamagra anage hu'naze, Kenani moparegati ne'za miza senaku e'none.
Joseph saw his brothers and recognized them, but he disguised himself to them and spoke harshly with them. He said to them, “Where have you come from?” They said, “From the land of Canaan to buy food.”
8 Josefe'a afuhe'ina zamageni' hianagi, zamagra agrira keni' osu'naze.
Joseph recognized his brothers, but they did not recognize him.
9 Josefe'a ko'ma afuhe'inte ava'na kezamte'nea agesa nentahino anage huno zamasmi'ne, Tamagra mopati afureta kenaku e'naze.
Then Joseph remembered the dreams he had dreamed about them, and he said to them, “You are spies! You have come to see the undefended parts of the land.”
10 Hianagi zamagra anage hu'naze, a'o, rantimoka kagri eri'za vahe'mota ne'za miza senaku e'none.
They said to him, “No, my master. Your servants have come to buy food.
11 Tagra magoke ne'mofo mofavre nagakita, tamage vahe mani'none. Hagi eri'za nagaka'mota tagra mopa afure' vahera ome'none.
We are all one man's sons. We are honest men. Your servants are not spies.”
12 Anage hazanagi ke'zmi rezmanteno agra anage hu'ne, A'o, kegava osu'nona mopati afureta kenaku tamagra e'naze!
He said to them, “No, you have come to see the undefended parts of the land.”
13 Hige'za zamagra anage hu'za asami'naze, Eri'za vahe'kamota maka 12fu'a vahekita magoke ne'mofo ne'mofavre naga mani'none. Hanki amitenamo'a Kenani mopare nerfa'ene manigeno, magotimo'a hago fri'ne.
They said, “We your servants are twelve brothers, the sons of one man in the land of Canaan. See, the youngest is this day with our father, and one brother is no longer alive.”
14 Hianagi Josefe'a amanage huno rentase hu'ne, Tamagra mopati afure vahere hu'na neramasamue.
Joseph said to them, “It is what I said to you; you are spies.
15 Tamagrama tamage nehaze hunama nagrama hanuana, amanahu hugahaze. Fero avufi hanave'ane ke huankita, ama kumara atreta ovu'nesageno, neramagna amare' e'nige'na kete'na, tamatrenugeta mopatamirega vugahaze.
By this you will be tested. By the life of Pharaoh, you will not leave here, unless your youngest brother comes here.
16 Hagi mago'mofo huntenkeno vuno neramagnana ome avreno eno. Hanki ruga'amota kinafi mani'nesageno, tamagenoka hugetama hunazana, tamagu'areti tamage hunafi kaneno. Havigema hanuta Fero avufina, tamage tamagra mopati afureta kenaku enaza vahere hu'na hugahue.
Send one of yourselves and let him get your brother. You will remain in prison, that your words may be tested, whether there is truth in you.”
17 Ana nagara maka kina nompi 3'a zagegnafi zamavarentene.
He put them all in custody for three days.
18 Hagi namba 3ma hia zagegnarera Josefe'a amanage huno zamasmi'ne, Nagra Anumzamofonku koro nehugu amana'ma hanazana manigahaze.
Joseph said to them on the third day, “Do this and live, for I fear God.
19 Hagi tamage vahe'ma mani'nesuta, atrenkeno mago neramafu kina huno mani'nena, ruga'amotma witi ne'zantmia erita zamaga zanku'ma nehaza naga tamirega viho.
If you are honest men, let one of your brothers be confined in this prison, but you go, carry grain for the famine of your houses.
20 Hianagi neramagnana ome avreta nagrite ehanatiho. Anama nehanageno ketamimo'a tamagesesigeta ofrigahaze. Hige'za kema zamasmiaza hu'naze.
Bring your youngest brother to me so your words will be verified and you will not die.” So they did so.
21 Zamagra zamagra amanage hu'naze, tamage neragnana haviza hunte'none. Na'ankure negonkeno agra o'e nehigeta antahiomuna nona'a ana knazamo'a tagritera fore nehie.
They said to one another, “We are truly guilty concerning our brother in that we saw the distress of his soul when he pleaded with us and we would not listen. Therefore this distress has come upon us.”
22 Rubeni'a ke nona'a amanage huno zamasami'ne, Nagra ontamasami'nofi, ana mofavrea azeri havizana osiho nehugeta ke'nia antahi onami'naza nona'a, menina agri'ma ahe fri'nona zamofo nona'a knazana enerune.
Reuben answered them, “Did I not tell you, 'Do not sin against the boy,' but you would not listen? Now, see, his blood is required of us.”
23 Zamagrama antahi'zana Josefe'a ketia nontahie hu'za hu'nazanagi, agra antahine. Na'ankure Josefema kema rekrahe humi vahe'mo'a amu'nozamifi mani'neno, nanekea akrehe huno zamasmi'ne.
They did not know that Joseph understood them, for there was an interpreter between them.
24 Josefe'a zamatreno vuno zavi ome atete'no, eno eme kema hunezmino'a, eri'za vahe'a zamasmige'za, Simeonina azeri'za negage'za azante nofi anakinte'naze.
He turned from them and wept. He returned to them and spoke to them. He took Simeon from among them and bound him before their eyes.
25 Huteno Josefe'a hige'za witi ne'zana beki ku'zmifi eriri nezmante'za, zagozmia ana zanke hu'za beki kuzmifi eriri nezamante'za, kantega nevu'za nemema vanaza kave'ene eriri zamante'naze.
Then Joseph commanded his servants to fill his brothers' bags with grain, and to put every man's money back into his sack, and to give them provisions for the journey. It was done for them.
26 Hige'za donki afu'zmimofo agumpi witi ne'zama eririzmantaza erinte'za anantetira atre'za vu'naze.
The brothers loaded their donkeys with their grain and departed from there.
27 Kantega umsenaku hazarega mago'mo donki afu'amofo ne'zama aminaku beki ku'a eriheta huno keana, beki ku'amofo avazare zago'a me'negeno ke'ne.
As one of them opened his sack to give his donkey feed in the lodging place, he saw his money. Behold, it was in the opening of his sack.
28 Afuhe'igizmia anage huno zamasami'ne, Beki ku'niafi zagonia eriri nante'nazanki keho. Hige'za zamahirahi nerege'za koro nehu'za rukre hu'za ovufi avufi nehu'za, anage hu'naze, Naza ama zana Anumzamo'a hunerante?
He said to his brothers, “My money has been put back. Look at it; it is in my sack.” Their hearts sank and they turned trembling to one another, saying, “What is this that God has done to us?”
29 Hagi zamagrama Kenani mopare unehanati'za, maka'zama fore huzmi'nea nanekea nezmafa Jekopuna amanage hu'za asmi'naze.
They went to Jacob, their father in the land of Canaan and told him all that had happened to them. They said,
30 Ana nera, ana mopa kegava kri'nea ra nekino, hanave kefintike kea huno, tamagra mopati afureta ke vahe e'naze hu'ne.
“The man, the lord of the land, spoke roughly with us and thought that we were spies in the land.
31 Hianagi tagra anage huta asami'none, Tagra tamage vahe mani'nonanki, afure vahera omani'none huta asami'none.
We said to him, 'We are honest men. We are not spies.
32 Tagra 12fu'a kogna nagakita, magoke ne'mofo mofavre nagare. Magotimo'a omanigeno, neragana'a nerafa'ene menina Kenani moparega mani'ne.
We are twelve brothers, sons of our father. One is no longer alive, and the youngest is this day with our father in the land of Canaan.'
33 Anage hunkeno ana mopama kegava kri'nea ra ne'mo'a amanage huno tasami'ne, Mago nermafuna nagrite netretma, witi ne'za eneritma zamagaku'ma nehaza nagatamirega viho. E'inama hanage'na, tamage vahe mani'naze hu'na nagra antahigahue.
The man, the lord of the land, said to us, 'By this I will know that you are honest men. Leave one of your brothers with me, take grain for the famine in your houses, and go your way.
34 Hagi nagnatamimofona avreta enkena negena, tamagra tamage huta mopa afureta ke vahera omani'naze hu'na antahi neramina, neramafuna avreraminena ama mopafina amne vute'ete huta ne'zana miza nehuta zagorera atregahaze huno hu'ne.
Bring your youngest brother to me. Then I will know that you are not spies, but that you are honest men. Then I will release your brother to you, and you will trade in the land.'”
35 Anage hute'za beki ku'zmifinti ne'zama eri'za e'naza herafinaku nehu'za kazana ana kognamokizmi zago'zmia kona anakinare beki ku'zmifi metere hu'negeno, ana zagoma nezmafa'enema nege'za tusi koro hu'naze.
It came about as they emptied their sacks, that, behold, every man's bag of silver was in his sack. When they and their father saw their bags of silver, they were afraid.
36 Nezmafa Jekopu'a amanage huno zamasmi'ne, Tamagra mofavre onte ne' kna hunenantaze. Josefe fanane higeno, Simeon fanane higeno, Benzamenina ana zanke huta avregahaze, ana maka zamo'a ha' renante.
Jacob their father said to them, “You have bereaved me of my children. Joseph is no longer alive, Simeon is gone, and you will take Benjamin away. All these things are against me.”
37 Rubeni'a nefana anage huno asami'ne, Benzamenima avre'na omesugenka tare ne'mofavreni'a zanahe frigahananki, nagri nazampi antege'na avre'na vute'na avre'na aneno.
Reuben spoke to his father, saying, “You may kill my two sons if I do not bring Benjamin back to you. Put him in my hands, and I will bring him to you again.”
38 Nehigeno Jekopu'a anage hu'ne, Nagri nenamofo'a kagranena uoramigahie. Nankure nefu'a frigeno, agrake mani'ne. Kama nevnageno kantegama hazenkema omeri'nige'na, efe nazokamate'nea vahera nasuzamo nahefri'na fri'na fri vahe kumapi (Seol) umanigahue. (Sheol h7585)
Jacob said, “My son will not go down with you. For his brother is dead and he alone is left. If harm comes to him on the road in which you go, then you will bring down my gray hair with sorrow to Sheol.” (Sheol h7585)
