Dud'uit Fefeu' a 44
1 Ara raa basa ma, Yusuf naꞌauꞌutuꞌ malangga mana tao ues na nae, “We! Muu ombo are neu atahori ia ra karon nara losa sofe se. Ma tao baliꞌ doi nara nisiꞌ esa-esaꞌ karon na rala.
Then he gave orders to the servant who was over his house, saying, Put as much food into the men's bags as will go into them, and put every man's money in the mouth of his bag;
2 Boe ma haꞌi mala au mok lilo fula ngga, fo tao nisiꞌ ana muriꞌ a karon na.” De ana neu tao tungga Yusuf parenda na.
And put my cup, my silver cup, in the youngest one's bag, with his money. So he did as Joseph said.
3 Mbila fefetu ana na, Yusuf mboꞌi se lao baliꞌ rendi nanaat no keledei nara.
And at dawn the men, with their asses, were sent away.
4 Ara nda feꞌe raꞌadooꞌ kamboꞌ sa ma, Yusuf nafadꞌe malangga mana tao ues na nae, “Muu tungga atahori naa ra lai-lai. Mete ma hambu se, naa, mufadꞌe maꞌo ia: ‘Taꞌo bee de rala mara deꞌulakaꞌ mbali toulasiꞌ a? Losa hei balas malole na mo deꞌulakaꞌ taꞌo ia.
And when they had gone only a little way out of the town, Joseph said to the servant who was over his house, Go after them; and when you overtake them, say to them, Why have you done evil in reward for good?
5 Taꞌo bee de loi mendi malangga mok lilo fula na? Hei nda bubꞌuluꞌ sa, do? Naa nda akaꞌ a mok nininuꞌ sa. Ana o sangga atahori uanale nara nendiꞌ mok naa. Naa mok mahineꞌ! Hei tatao mara ia, deꞌulaka na seli ma!’”
Is not this the cup from which my lord takes wine and by which he gets knowledge of the future? Truly, you have done evil.
6 Basa de, malangga mana tao ues neu tungga de hambu se. Ana nafadꞌe se, tungga Yusuf oꞌola na.
So he overtook them and said these words to them.
7 Ara rataa rae, “Amaꞌ masud na taꞌo bee ia? Hai sumba. Hai nda tao deꞌulakaꞌ taꞌo naa sa.
And they said to him, Why does my lord say such words as these? far be it from your servants to do such a thing:
8 Amaꞌ bubꞌuluꞌ, to? Doi-doiꞌ mana mia karon rala faiꞌ naa, hai fee baliꞌ neu amaꞌ, to? De taꞌo bee de hai loi malangga lilo fula na mia umen fai. Hokoꞌ o!
See, the money which was in the mouth of our bags we gave back to you when we came again from Canaan: how then might we take silver or gold from your lord's house?
9 Amaꞌ paresaꞌ neuꞌ ena. Hambu sia seka karon na, naa hukun misa e leo. Ma hai ruma dadꞌi ate ma.”
If it comes to light that any of your servants has done this, let him be put to death, and we will be your lord's servants.
10 Malangga mana tao ues a nae, “Hokoꞌ! Taꞌo ia. Mete ma hambu mok sia seka, naa, ana dadꞌi au ate ngga. Ruma baliꞌ.”
And he said, Let it be as you say: he in whose bag it is seen will become my servant; and you will not be responsible.
11 Boe ma ara raꞌondaꞌ karon naa ra lai-lai, de sefi se.
Then every man quickly got his bag down and undid it.
12 Malangga mana tao ues a paresaꞌ lutu-leloꞌ karon naa ra esa-esaꞌ, mia aꞌa ka karon na, losa odꞌiꞌ a ena na. De ana hambu mok lilo fulaꞌ mia Benyamin karon na.
And he made a search, starting with the oldest and ending with the youngest; and the cup was in Benjamin's bag.
13 Boe ma Benyamin aꞌa nara rala nara rambalulutu. De ara fua baliꞌ karon naa ra keledei ata reu, ma baliꞌ kambo reu.
Then in bitter grief they put the bags on the asses again and went back to the town.
14 Losa Yusuf ume na boe, ana feꞌe sia naa. De ara sendeꞌ lululangga nara neu mata na.
So Judah and his brothers came to Joseph's house; and he was still there: and they went down on their faces before him.
15 Yusuf bua se nae, “He! Taꞌo bee de hei tao onaꞌ ia neu au. Hei nda mihine mae atahori monaen onaꞌ au ia, sangga atahori rahasia na endiꞌ mahineꞌ naa sa, do?”
And Joseph said, What is this thing which you have done? had you no thought that such a man as I would have power to see what is secret?
16 Yahuda nataa nae, “Awi! Lamatualain natudꞌu hai sala mara ena. Hai mae saa fai, amaꞌ? Hai mae misilaꞌe ao ma, onaꞌ bee fai. Mete ma amaꞌ nae hela hai odꞌi muri ma ia, naa, malole lenaꞌ amaꞌ hela basa hai. Haꞌi mala basa hai dadꞌi ate ma.”
And Judah said, What are we to say to my lord? how may we put ourselves right in his eyes? God has made clear the sin of your servants: now we are in your hands, we and the man in whose bag your cup was seen.
17 Yusuf nataa nae, “Hokoꞌ! Hambu mok a sia seka e, na eni mana dadꞌi au ate ngga. Hei ruma, nenemboꞌit. Baliꞌ misiꞌ ama ma leo!”
Then he said, Far be it from me to do so: but the man who had my cup will be my servant; and you may go back to your father in peace.
18 Yahuda neu deka-deka no Yusuf, de olaꞌ nae, “Ama fetor! Au bubꞌuluꞌ amaꞌ koasa na onaꞌ maneꞌ a boe. Huu naa, de afiꞌ mumunasa au dei. Au oꞌe ola-olaꞌ mbei o amaꞌ.
Then Judah came near him, and said, Let your servant say a word in my lord's ears, and let not your wrath be burning against your servant: for you are in the place of Pharaoh to us.
19 Maꞌahulu na amaꞌ natane hai mae, ‘Hai ama ma no odꞌi ma esa feꞌe sia, do?’
My lord said to his servants, Have you a father or a brother?
20 Hai mitaa mae, ‘Hai ama ma lasiꞌ ena. Boe ma odꞌi muri ma, esa. Leleꞌ bꞌonggi e, hai ama ma lasiꞌ ena. Aꞌa bꞌonggi na esaꞌ a, te ana nese ena. Ruꞌa se ina na mate ena. De ia naa, helaꞌ a mesaꞌ ne. Naa de, hai ama ma sue nala e seli.’
And we said to my lord, We have an old father and a young child, whom he had when he was old; his brother is dead and he is the only son of his mother, and is very dear to his father.
21 Basa de, amaꞌ denu hai mo e, fo mita e.
And you said to your servants, Let him come down to me with you, so that I may see him.
22 Te hai mitaa mae, anaꞌ naa nda lao hela ama na sa. Mete ma ana lao hela e, naa, hai ama ma mate, neuꞌ ena.
And we said to my lord, His father will not let him go; for if he went away his father would come to his death.
23 Boe ma amaꞌ nataa nae, ‘Mete ma hei nda mendi odꞌi ma sa, naa, hei nda bisa mita mata ngga sa ena.’
But you said to your servants, If your youngest brother does not come with you, you will not see my face again.
24 Basa de hai baliꞌ. Mifadꞌe basa amaꞌ oꞌola na neu hai ama ma.
And when we went back to your servant, our father, we gave him an account of my lord's words.
25 Dꞌoo-dꞌoo ma, hai nanaa mara basa boe. De hai ama ma denu ima hasa seluꞌ nanaat fai.
And our father said, Go again and get us a little food.
26 Hai mitaa seluꞌ mae, ‘Amaꞌ e! Hai nda mi sia naa sa. Te fetor a, nafadꞌe ena, mete ma hai nda mo odꞌi muriꞌ a sa, naa, hai sudꞌi mindaa mo e. Dadꞌi hai odꞌi muri ma musi tungga, dei fo hai feꞌe lao naa.’
And we said, Only if our youngest brother goes with us will we go down; for we may not see the man's face again if our youngest brother is not with us.
27 Hai ama ma olaꞌ fai nae, ‘Hei bubꞌuluꞌ, to? Au sao ngga Rahel, ana na akaꞌ ruaꞌ a.
And our father said to us, You have knowledge that my wife gave me two sons;
28 Ana uluꞌ a nese ena. Banda fui ra raa hendi ena. Naa de, losa faiꞌ ia au nda undaa o e sa.
The one went away from me, and I said, Truly he has come to a violent death; and from that time I have not seen him,
29 Mete ma hei haꞌi mala ana muriꞌ ia mia au fai, boe ma ana taꞌo esa naa, hei boe tao miꞌisususaꞌ au lasiꞌ ia, de au mate neuꞌ ena.’ (Sheol h7585)
If now you take this one from me, and some evil comes to him, you will make my grey head go down in sorrow to the underworld. (Sheol h7585)
If then I go back to your servant, my father, without the boy, because his life and the boy's life are one,
31 De onaꞌ naa, ama fetor. Mete ma au baliꞌ isiꞌ ama ngga, nda o baliꞌ odꞌi muriꞌ ia sa, naa, hai ama ma mate neuꞌ ena, huu rala na esa no anaꞌ naa. Ana namalasi seli ena, naa de mete ma hai boe tao miꞌisususaꞌ e, naa, ana mate neuꞌ ena. (Sheol h7585)
When he sees that the boy is not with us, he will come to his death, and our father's grey head will go down in sorrow to the underworld. (Sheol h7585)
32 Boe ma au o helu ama ngga, au mana o baliꞌ anaꞌ naa. Au helu ae, mete ma nda o baliꞌ anaꞌ ia sa, naa au tanggon salaꞌ losa mate.
For I made myself responsible for the boy to my father, saying, If I do not give him safely back to you, let mine be the sin for ever.
33 Dadꞌi au oꞌe taꞌo ia, amaꞌ: Au leo uhatiꞌ a ia nggati e, fo dadꞌi amaꞌ ate na. Hela e baliꞌ no aꞌa nara.
So now let me be my lord's servant here in place of the boy, and let him go back with his brothers.
34 Mete ma anaꞌ naa nda tungga sa, naa, au o nda baliꞌ saa boe. Au nda nau ita ama ngga doidꞌoso losa mate sa.”
For how may I go back to my father without the boy, and see the evil which will come on my father?
