< Genesis 45 >

1 Then Joseph could no longer control himself before all those who stood before him, so he cried out, "Send everyone away from me." So no one stood with him while Joseph made himself known to his brothers.
Yusuf rena nala Yahuda oꞌola na, rala na noe rau-rau nda naꞌatataaꞌ sia pagau nara mata nara sa. De ana denu se dea reu, fo hela mesaꞌ ne no odꞌi-aꞌa nara. Ana nae nafadꞌe eni ia, seka.
2 And he wept so loudly that the Egyptians heard it, and the house of Pharaoh heard about it.
Paggau nara basa se dea reu, ma Yusuf nggae nahereꞌ, losa atahori Masir mana sia kama a deaꞌ, rena. Ma atahori mana sia maneꞌ a ume na, o rena boe.
3 Then Joseph said to his brothers, "I am Joseph. Is my father still alive?" But his brothers couldn't answer him, for they were terrified at his presence.
Basa de, Yusuf nafadꞌe relo-relo odꞌi-aꞌa nara nae, “We! Odꞌi-aꞌa re. Au ia Yusuf, hei toronoo ma. Amaꞌ feꞌe masodꞌaꞌ, to?” Odꞌi-aꞌa nara rena taꞌo naa ma, ramatau rala seli, losa nda ola-olaꞌ rala saa saꞌ boe.
4 Then Joseph said to his brothers, "Come near to me, please." So they moved closer. And he said, "I am Joseph, your brother, whom you sold into Egypt.
Boe ma Yusuf noꞌe se nae, “We! Ima deka-deka ia dei.” Ara reu deka Yusuf. Ma ana olaꞌ seluꞌ nae, “Au ia Yusuf, fo maꞌahulu na hei seo neu atahori Masir ra.
5 Now do not be upset or angry with yourselves that you sold me here, for God sent me before you to preserve life.
Hei memaꞌ seo hendi au ena. Te afiꞌ mimitau, ma afiꞌ mireresi esa fee salaꞌ neu esa fai. Matetu na, Lamatualain mana no au ia uma uꞌuhuluꞌ mia hei e. Onaꞌ naa, Ana fee masodꞌaꞌ neu atahori naeꞌ huu au. Fo ara afiꞌ mate ndoes.
6 For the famine has been in the land these two years, and there will be five more years in which there will be neither plowing nor harvest.
Ndoe-laꞌas feꞌe laoꞌ too rua ia. Feꞌe hela too lima fai. Atahori nda aꞌali rae sa, nda sela nggari sa, de nda hambu mbule-bꞌoaꞌ saa saꞌ boe.
7 God sent me ahead of you to preserve for you a remnant on the earth, and to save your lives by a great deliverance.
No dalaꞌ fo hita nda tahineꞌ sa ia, Lamatualain no au uꞌuhuluꞌ hei. Naa fo hambu ruma mia hei ma umbu-ana mara, rasodꞌa.
8 So now, it wasn't you who sent me here, but God, and he has made me a father to Pharaoh, lord of all his house, and ruler over all the land of Egypt.
Matetu na, nda hei tatao ma de au sia ia sa, te Lamatualain tatao Na. Naa de au dadꞌi fetor sia Masir ia. De au dadꞌi malangga mana tao ues sia maneꞌ a ume panggat na. Nda hambu atahori lenaꞌ au sa.
9 Now hurry and go up to my father and tell him, 'This is what your son Joseph says, "God has made me lord of all Egypt. Come down to me. Do not delay.
De ia naa, hei baliꞌ lai-lai leo, fo mifadꞌe au oꞌola ngga ia neu amaꞌ mae, ‘Amaꞌ ana na Yusuf feꞌe masodꞌaꞌ. Ana dadꞌi atahori malangga sia Masir. Ana noꞌe amaꞌ Masir neu lai-lai.
10 You shall dwell in the land of Gesen, and you will be near to me, you, your children, and your children's children, and your flocks, and your herds, and everything that you have.
Dei fo amaꞌ leo sia Masir sia mamana esa naran Gosen, deka no e. Mamanaꞌ naa maloleꞌ ma loaꞌ. De amaꞌ bisa naꞌaboi bibꞌi lombo mara sia naa, ma basa hiek no sapi ra. Ana o noꞌe fo amaꞌ muu mo umbu-ana mara, ume isi mara, no basa hata-heto mara fo leo siaꞌ a naa.
11 There I will provide for you, for there are still five years of famine to come, otherwise you and your household and all that you have would become destitute.
Mete ma amaꞌ sia Gosen, naa, ana naꞌaboi amaꞌ sia naa. Ndoe-laꞌas feꞌe too lima fai. Dei fo ana tao fo amaꞌ no bobꞌonggiꞌ mara, basa banda ra nda kuran saa saꞌ boe.’”
12 Look, your eyes see, and the eyes of my brother Benjamin, that it is my mouth which is speaking to you.
Yusuf nafadꞌe basa boe, ana olaꞌ fai nae, “Ia naa, hei mita ena, to? Ma ho, Benyamin, mita, to? Au ia, memaꞌ Yusuf.
13 So you must tell my father about all my glory in Egypt, and of all that you have seen. But you must hurry and bring my father down here."
De mifadꞌe hita ama na mae, au koasa ngga monaeꞌ sia Masir. Boe ma dui basa-bꞌasa saa fo hei mitaꞌ ia neu amaꞌ. Basa fo, mo amaꞌ lai-lai ia nema leo!”
14 Then he threw his arms around his brother Benjamin's neck and wept, and Benjamin wept on his shoulder.
Basa boe ma, ana holu odꞌi na Benyamin, de rua se nggae.
15 And he kissed all his brothers and wept on them, and after that his brothers talked with him.
Ana o holu odꞌi-aꞌa nara, de idꞌu se esa-esaꞌ. Dei de, ara feꞌe ola-olaꞌ ro e.
16 Now the report of it was heard in Pharaoh's house, saying, "Joseph's brothers have come." It pleased Pharaoh and his servants.
Basa naa ma, maneꞌ a no basa pagau nara rena Yusuf odꞌi-aꞌa nara rema, de basa se ramahoꞌo.
17 And Pharaoh said to Joseph, "Tell your brothers, 'Do this: Load your animals and go. Enter the land of Canaan.
De maneꞌ a olaꞌ no Yusuf nae, “Yusuf, e! Mufadꞌe odꞌi-aꞌa mara fo ara fua are nara reu keledei leo, fo rendi Kanaꞌan neu.
18 Take your father and your families and come to me, and I will give you the best of the land of Egypt, and you will eat the richness of the land.'
Denu se rema ro ama ma, no basa bobꞌonggi nara, fo ara lali ia rema leo. Dei fo fee se rae meulauꞌ sia Masir, fo ara rasodꞌa sia naa, ma raa rae minan.
19 Now you are commanded, 'Do this: Take wagons from the land of Egypt for your little ones, and for your wives, and bring your father and come.
Boe ma nafadꞌe se, fo rendi memaꞌ kareta hira mia ia, fo fua neu anadikiꞌ ra ro ama ma.
20 Also, do not worry about your possessions, for the best of all of the land of Egypt is yours."
Afiꞌ duꞌa mendi basa hata-hetoꞌ ra, te basa maloleꞌ mana sia Masir ia, dei fo sira hambu se.”
21 So the sons of Israel did that. And Joseph gave them wagons, according to the commandment of Pharaoh, and gave them provisions for the journey.
Maneꞌ a olaꞌ basa ma, Yusuf fee se kareta hira ma lepa-ngges, tungga maneꞌ a parenda na. De odꞌi-aꞌa nara raꞌalilinuꞌ fo baliꞌ tungga maneꞌ a parenda na.
22 He gave to all of them, to each one, a change of clothing. But to Benjamin he gave three hundred pieces of silver and five changes of clothing.
Yusuf o fee se, bua-baꞌus feuꞌ pasan beꞌe esaꞌ. Te ana fee Benyamin doi fulaꞌ natun telu, ma bua feuꞌ pasan lima.
23 To his father he sent the following: ten donkeys loaded with the best things of Egypt, and ten female donkeys loaded with grain and food and provision for his father on the journey.
Ana haitua fee ama na sudꞌi a saa meulauꞌ mia Masir, de fua neu kaledei mone sanahulu. Ana o fee seluꞌ, are, roti, ma nanaat mataꞌ-mataꞌ, sia keledei ine sanahulu fai, fo dadꞌi lepa-ngges baliꞌ Masir rema.
24 So he sent his brothers off, and as they departed he said to them, "Do not be fearful on the journey."
Basa ma, ana fee se baliꞌ, ma nafadꞌe se nae, “Hei afiꞌ mireresi sia dalaꞌ e!”
25 So they went up out of Egypt and came into the land of Canaan to their father Jacob.
Boe ma ara lao baliꞌ risiꞌ ama na sia Kanaꞌan.
26 And they told him, saying, "Joseph is still alive, and he is ruler over all the land of Egypt." But he was unmoved, because he did not believe them.
Losa naa ma, rafadꞌe ama na rae, “Amaꞌ e! Ana ma Yusuf feꞌe masodꞌaꞌ. Ana dadꞌi atahori monaeꞌ, de parenda sia Masir!” Yakob rena ma, ana titindindi, de nda namahere oꞌola nara sa.
27 But when they told him all the words of Joseph, which he had said to them, and when he saw the wagons which Joseph had sent to transport him, the spirit of their father Jacob revived.
Te ara rafadꞌe basa Yusuf oꞌola na ma, Yakob nita kareta fo Yusuf haitua nema nae fua no e nisiꞌ Masir, dei de feꞌe namahere na.
28 Then Israel said, "I'm convinced. My son Joseph is still alive. I will go and see him before I die."
Ana olaꞌ nae, “Awi! Au ana ngga feꞌe masodꞌaꞌ o! Taꞌo naa dei de au feꞌe umuhoꞌo na. Au musi uu seꞌu-ita dei, dei fo au feꞌe mate no maloleꞌ.”
