BEO
Ya:igobe da gagoma Idibidi dialebe amo nababeba:le, egefelali ilima amane sia:i, “Dilia da abuli udigili esalabala?
BSB
BSB:
When Jacob learned that there was grain in Egypt, he said to his sons, “Why are you staring at one another?”
2
BEO
Na da nabi gagoma Idibidi sogega diala. Ninia da ha:iba:le bogosa:besa:le, amoga lala masa.”
BSB
BSB:
“Look,” he added, “I have heard that there is grain in Egypt. Go down there and buy some for us, so that we may live and not die.”
3
BEO
Amaiba:le, Yousefe ea yolalali nabuane gala da Idibidi sogega gagoma bidi lamusa: asi dagoi.
BSB
BSB:
So ten of Joseph’s brothers went down to buy grain from Egypt.
4
BEO
Be e da se nabasa:besa:le, Ya:igobe da Yousefe eya Bediamini amo hame asunasi.
BSB
BSB:
But Jacob did not send Joseph’s brother Benjamin with his brothers, for he said, “I am afraid that harm might befall him.”
5
BEO
Ga:ina:ne soge da ha:i bagadeba:le, Ya:igobe egefelali da eno dunu gilisili, gagoma ha:i manu bidi lama:ne misi.
BSB
BSB:
So the sons of Israel were among those who came to buy grain, since the famine had also spread to the land of Canaan.
6
BEO
Yousefe, Idibidi ouligisu hina dunu, da osobo bagade fifi asi gala dunu huluane ilima gagoma bidi lalu. Amaiba:le, Yousefe yolalali da ema misini, ilia odagi osoboa digimusa: begudui.
BSB
BSB:
Now Joseph was the ruler of the land; he was the one who sold grain to all its people. So when his brothers arrived, they bowed down before him with their faces to the ground.
7
BEO
Yousefe da ea yolalali ba:beba:le, ili dawa:i galu. Be e da ogogole, e da ili hame dawa:i agoane hamoi. E da gasa fiwane ilima adole ba:i, “Dilia da habidili misibala:?” Ilia da bu adole i, “Ninia da Ga:ina:ne sogega ha:i manu bidi lamusa: misi.”
BSB
BSB:
And when Joseph saw his brothers, he recognized them, but he treated them as strangers and spoke harshly to them. “Where have you come from?” he asked. “From the land of Canaan,” they replied. “We are here to buy food.”
8
BEO
Yousefe da ea yolalali dawa:i. Be e da ilia eya amo ilia da hame dawa:i.
BSB
BSB:
Although Joseph recognized his brothers, they did not recognize him.
9
BEO
E da ilima musa: simasia ba:su amo bu dawa:i. E ilima amane sia:i, “Dilia da desega ahoasu dunu. Dilia da Idibidi soge amo ninia habidili gasa hame gala amo ba:la misi.”
BSB
BSB:
Joseph remembered his dreams about them and said, “You are spies! You have come to see if our land is vulnerable.”
10
BEO
Be ilia bu adole i, “Hame mabu, hina! Ninia da dia udigili hawa: hamosu dunu defele, ha:i manu bidi lamusa: misi.
BSB
BSB:
“Not so, my lord,” they replied. “Your servants have come to buy food.
11
BEO
Ninia huluane da olalali esala. Ninia da desega ahoasu dunu hame. Ninia huluane da moloi dunu.”
BSB
BSB:
We are all sons of one man. Your servants are honest men, not spies.”
12
BEO
Yousefe bu adole i, “Hame mabu! Dilia da ninia soge amo ea gasa hame hou ba:la misi dagoi.”
BSB
BSB:
“No,” he told them. “You have come to see if our land is vulnerable.”
13
BEO
Ilia bu amane sia:i, “Ninia da olalali fagoyale galu. Ninia da dunu afae Ga:ina:ne soge ganodini amo ea manolali gala. Be eya afae da bogoi, amola ufi dunu mano da ninia eda amola esala.”
BSB
BSB:
But they answered, “Your servants are twelve brothers, the sons of one man in the land of Canaan. The youngest is now with our father, and one is no more.”
14
BEO
Yousefe da bu adole i, “Na sia:i defele dilia da desega ahoasu dunu.
BSB
BSB:
Then Joseph declared, “Just as I said, you are spies!
15
BEO
Na dilima adoba:su hou hamomu. Felou ea dioba:le, na da agoane sia:sa. Dilia fa:no lalelegei eya da guiguda: hame manoba, dilia da guiguda: hamedafa yolesimu.
BSB
BSB:
And this is how you will be tested: As surely as Pharaoh lives, you shall not leave this place unless your youngest brother comes here.
16
BEO
Dilia fi dunu afae e lala masa:ma! Dilia eno huluane da guiguda: se iasu diasu ganodini esalumu. Dilia sia: da dafawane o dafawane hame, amo ninia ba:mu.”
BSB
BSB:
Send one of your number to get your brother; the rest of you will be confined so that the truth of your words may be tested. If they are untrue, then as surely as Pharaoh lives, you are spies!”
17
BEO
Amalalu, e da ili se iasu diasu ganodini sali. Amoga ilia eso udiana esalu.
BSB
BSB:
So Joseph imprisoned them for three days,
18
BEO
Eso udiana amoga Yousefe da ilima amane sia:i, “Na da Godema beda:i dunu. Dilia liligi afadafa hamosea fawane, na da dili hame fane legemu.
BSB
BSB:
and on the third day he said to them, “I fear God. So do this and you will live:
19
BEO
Dilia sia: da dafawane olelema:ne, dunu afae fawane da se iasu diasu ganodini esalumu. Dilia eno da dilia ha:i bagade fi ilima ha:i manu dilia lai gaguli masa.
BSB
BSB:
If you are honest, leave one of your brothers in custody while the rest of you go and take back grain to relieve the hunger of your households.
20
BEO
Amasea, dilia fa:no lalelegei eya amo guiguda: oule misa. Amasea, dilia da hame ogogoi, na da dawa:mu amola na da dili hame fane legemu.” Amo da defea ilia sia:i dagoi.
BSB
BSB:
Then bring your youngest brother to me so that your words can be verified, that you may not die.” And to this they consented.
21
BEO
Ilia gilisili sia: dasu, “Dafawane! Wali ninia se nabasu da dabe agoane ninia eya ema wadela:le hamoiba:le lasa. E da ninima e fidima:ne se nabawane edegei, be ninia da hame nabi. Amaiba:le, ninia wali dabe agoane se naba.”
BSB
BSB:
Then they said to one another, “Surely we are being punished because of our brother. We saw his anguish when he pleaded with us, but we would not listen. That is why this distress has come upon us.”
22
BEO
Liubene da amane sia:i, “Na da goi maedafa wadela:ma:ne sia:i; be dilia da hame nabi. Wali ea bogoi amoga ninia da dabe laha.”
BSB
BSB:
And Reuben responded, “Didn’t I tell you not to sin against the boy? But you would not listen. Now we must account for his blood!”
23
BEO
Yousefe da ilia sia: huluane dawa:i. Be amo hou ilia da hame dawa:i. Ilia da ema sia:noba, sia: adole iasu dunu, amoga fawane sia:su.
BSB
BSB:
They did not realize that Joseph understood them, since there was an interpreter between them.
24
BEO
Yousefe da ili yolesili, disu. Amalalu, e da ilima bu misini, ilima sia: dasu. Ea sia:beba:le, ea dadi gagui da Simiane lale, ilia huluane ba:ma:ne lala:gi dagoi.
BSB
BSB:
And he turned away from them and wept. When he turned back and spoke to them, he took Simeon from them and had him bound before their eyes.
25
BEO
Yousefe da sia:beba:le, ea hawa: hamosu dunu da ilia esa amo gagoma amoga nabalesi. Ilia da Yousefe yolalali ilia esa afae afae amo ganodini, silifa muni ilia musa: i, amo sali. Amola ilia da ha:i manu ilia logoga ahoasea moma:ne, ilima i.
BSB
BSB:
Then Joseph gave orders to fill their bags with grain, to return each man’s silver to his sack, and to give them provisions for their journey. This order was carried out,
26
BEO
Amalalu, Yousefe yolalali da ilia gagoma lai, amo ilia dougi baligiga ligisili, yolesili asi.
BSB
BSB:
and they loaded the grain on their donkeys and departed.
27
BEO
Asili, ilia da sogebi amo golamusa: ouesalu, dunu afae da ea dougi amo ha:i manu imunusa: ea esa doasilaloba, ea muni amo gagoma gadodili ligisi dialebe ba:i.
BSB
BSB:
At the place where they lodged for the night, one of them opened his sack to get feed for his donkey, and he saw his silver in the mouth of the sack.
28
BEO
E da yolalalima amane sia:i, “Na muni ilia da nama bu i. Amo da na esa ganodini dialebe ba:sa.” Ilia bagade beda:i galu. Ilia da gilisili amane sia: dasu, “Gode da anima adi hamobela:?”
BSB
BSB:
“My silver has been returned!” he said to his brothers. “It is here in my sack.” Their hearts sank, and trembling, they turned to one another and said, “What is this that God has done to us?”
29
BEO
Ilia da eda Ya:igobema doaga:loba, ilia da hou huluane ilima misi amo huluane ema amane adoi,
BSB
BSB:
When they reached their father Jacob in the land of Canaan, they described to him all that had happened to them:
30
BEO
“Idibidi ouligisu hina dunu da ninima gasa bagade ougiwane sia:i. E da nini ea soge wadela:musa:, desega ahoanebe sia:i.
BSB
BSB:
“The man who is lord of the land spoke harshly to us and accused us of spying on the country.
31
BEO
Be ninia ema bu adole i, ‘Ninia da desega ahoasu dunu hame. Ninia moloidafa dunu.
BSB
BSB:
But we told him, ‘We are honest men, not spies.
32
BEO
Ninia da olalali fagoyale galu. Ninia dunu afae amo egefelali gala. Ninia eya da bogoi amola fa:no lalelegei eya da ninia eda amola Ga:ina:ne soge ganodini esala.’
BSB
BSB:
We are twelve brothers, sons of one father. One is no more, and the youngest is now with our father in the land of Canaan.’
33
BEO
Amalalu, Idibidi hina da amane sia:i, ‘Dilia da moloidafa dunu o hame, amo ninia da amoga ba:mu. Dunu afadafa da nama ouesalumu. Eno da dilia ha:i bagade fi ilima ha:i manu gaguli masa.
BSB
BSB:
Then the man who is lord of the land said to us, ‘This is how I will know whether you are honest: Leave one brother with me, take food to relieve the hunger of your households, and go.
34
BEO
Dia eya fa:no lalelegei, amo nama oule misa. Amasea, dilia da desega ahoasu dunu hame be moloidafa amo na da dawa:mu. Na da dilia ola dilima bu imunu. Amola dilia da guiguda: bidi lasu hamomusa: ouesalumu da defea.”
BSB
BSB:
But bring your youngest brother back to me so I will know that you are not spies but honest men. Then I will give your brother back to you, and you can trade in the land.’”
35
BEO
Amalalu, ilia da gagoma esa ganodini sali amo huluane gugudili legeiya, ilia huluane muni ganodini sali dialebe ba:i. Amo ba:beba:le, ilia, amola ilia eda Ya:igobe, da bagade beda:i galu.
BSB
BSB:
As they began emptying their sacks, there in each man’s sack was his bag of silver! And when they and their father saw the bags of silver, they were dismayed.
36
BEO
Ilia eda da ilima amane sia:i, “Dilia da na mano huluane fisimu, amo dilia da hanabala:? Yousefe da fisi dagoi. Simiane da fisi dagoi. Wali dilia da Bediamini fadegamusa: dawa:lala. Ni fawane da se naba.”
BSB
BSB:
Their father Jacob said to them, “You have deprived me of my sons. Joseph is gone and Simeon is no more. Now you want to take Benjamin. Everything is going against me!”
37
BEO
Liubene da ea edama amane sia:i, “Na da Bediamini dima bu hame oule masea, di da na dunu mano aduna fane legemu da defea. Na ouligima:ne, Bediamini nama ima. Na da e bu oule misunu.”
BSB
BSB:
Then Reuben said to his father, “You may kill my two sons if I fail to bring him back to you. Put him in my care, and I will return him.”
38
BEO
Be Ya:igobe da amane sia:i, “Na gofe da dili sigi masunu hamedei. Ea ola da bogoi amola hisu da esala. E da logoga se nabasa:besa:le, hamedafa masunu. Na da dunu da:i hamoi dagoi. Di da amo se nabasu nama iasea, na bogomu.”
BSB
BSB:
But Jacob replied, “My son will not go down there with you, for his brother is dead, and he alone is left. If any harm comes to him on your journey, you will bring my gray hair down to Sheol in sorrow.”
