5. 5EKAEbtuku asilva bia sang nsoo ewame kpo ko jo wo, fere jo bu elbua? Esab sab ejum ji ḿ ma lim.>>>BSBBSB: Is this not the cup my master drinks from and uses for divination? What you have done is wicked!’”
6. 6EKAEji á song kpiri bo, alum nyanehm o nya á tongo bo.BSBBSB: When the steward overtook them, he relayed these words to them.
7. 7EKABo kehm-e faange re, <<Jenji wahnge nsoo kpˈbungu elkohn ejum ana jia? Ndan gbaa re wahr alokeltum eba lim elkohn ejum ana jia!BSBBSB: “Why does my lord say these things?” they asked. “Your servants could not possibly do such a thing.

Jenji wahnge wahr bahke kehm vohko silva afii agul etahk nso?BSBBSB: We even brought back to you from the land of Canaan the silver we found in the mouths of our sacks. Why would we steal silver or gold from your master’s house?

Nne no bo lˈnyehn go ege ye wo bahke jolo nju enyame; wahn egom jehko ń nehm kpe li ebi.>>BSBBSB: “As you say,” replied the steward. “But only the one who is found with the cup will be my slave, and the rest of you shall be free of blame.”

16. 16EKAJuda kehm faange re, <<Jenjii e bahke tongo nsoo ewame? Jenji e bahke bungu? Anv e bahke tibi renan re wahr nehme kahn? Esowo eblennge abˈbi nya alokeltum eba, anv a wahr aju nya nsoo nya, wahr fono antahng a nne no bo nyehne nkob ege ebam.>>BSBBSB: “What can we say to my lord?” Judah replied. “How can we plead? How can we justify ourselves? God has exposed the iniquity of your servants. We are now my lord’s slaves—both we and the one who was found with the cup.”
17. 17EKAOwo Josef kehm bungu re, <<Ndan gbaa re, me n lim elkohn ejum ana jio! Nne no bo nyehne ebtuku go ege wo wo bahke jolo nju enyame, egom jehko feeren song tob nso ewahne go elkoono.>>BSBBSB: But Joseph replied, “Far be it from me to do this. The man who was found with the cup will be my slave. The rest of you may return to your father in peace.”

Do not be angry with your servant, for you are equal to Pharaoh himself.

20. 20EKAE faange re, <E kpˈkpi nde, yebkul, mmon no nse no nlum noa no bo jele ka-e, eji á ma kul, mmonannyehn noko ebkpo, ye ntahng ntahng wo ma sa go mmon a nnenkal noo. Á kpo kor nsoo sehng.>BSBBSB: And we answered, ‘We have an elderly father and a younger brother, the child of his old age. The boy’s brother is dead. He is the only one of his mother’s sons left, and his father loves him.’
21. 21EKA<A tongo nlokeltum ewa re, <<Ko-e ba, eji me n lˈnyehn-e antahng.>>BSBBSB: Then you told your servants, ‘Bring him down to me so that I can see him for myself.’
22. 22EKAE tongo ntubesi ewame re <<mmonse nnenlum noo nehm ma tahm nde sa; á lˈtahm-e sa, nde bahke kpoko.>>BSBBSB: So we said to my lord, ‘The boy cannot leave his father. If he were to leave, his father would die.’
23. 23EKAWo a tongo nlokeltum ewa re, <Tohko tiki jol re, nkalla toon-n ba a, ń nehm kpe tiki nyehn esamahr ebame.>BSBBSB: But you said to your servants, ‘Unless your younger brother comes down with you, you will not see my face again.’
24. 24EKAEji e feere no kehnge goji nlokeltum ewa no li nsoo, e song tong-e ji ntubesi tong-r no.BSBBSB: Now when we returned to your servant my father, we relayed your words to him.
25. 25EKA<<Owo nsoo ewahre kehm-r tongo re, <Songen wahn kpe song gunu abon nsol alehke.>BSBBSB: Then our father said, ‘Go back and buy us some food.’
26. 26EKAWo wahr tong-e re <<Wahr nehm feere je o, sehngem re no nkalla mmonnannee ewahre toon-r na, owo e bahke jeke. E nehm ma nyehn esamahr nne noo, tohko jol re nkalla mmonannee ewahre jolo anahre o.>BSBBSB: But we answered, ‘We cannot go down there unless our younger brother goes with us. So if our younger brother is not with us, we cannot see the man.’

29. 29EKAÁ lˈkpe rod noa tahm-m sa, ejum lˈlim-e, a bahke rodo esi abi ejame yel go elahm ndon ndon.BSBBSB: Now if you also take this one from me and harm comes to him, you will bring my gray hair down to Sheol in sorrow.’
30. 30EKAElkpin nsoo li are bob kpennge atem a elkpin monse nlum noa. Anv mmonse nlum noa tohko jol anahre, n lˈfeere goji nlokeltum ewa no li nsoo,BSBBSB: So if the boy is not with us when I return to your servant, and if my father, whose life is wrapped up in the boy’s life,
31. 31EKAa lˈnyehn re, mmonse nlum noa lim anahre, á bahke kpoko, alokeltum eba bahke rodo esi abi nsoo ewahre song kak elahm ndon ndon.BSBBSB: sees that the boy is not with us, he will die. Then your servants will have brought the gray hair of your servant our father down to Sheol in sorrow.
32. 32EKAMe nlokeltum ewa ko mmonse nlum go nkpaneka re m bahk-e kpuru ka nsoo ewahme. N tongo nsoo re, n tohk-e ko feere a ne ba ka-a, me wo bahke lehke ebi go ega esamahr, elkpin ename kpee.BSBBSB: Indeed, your servant guaranteed the boy’s safety to my father, saying, ‘If I do not return him to you, I will bear the guilt before you, my father, all my life.’
33. 33EKA<<Anv titi nong me nlokeltum ewa sa a ana njua nsoo, go esi mmonse nlum noa, nong mmonse nlum toono abonanyehn song.BSBBSB: Now please let your servant stay here as my lord’s slave in place of the boy. Let him return with his brothers.
34. 34EKAM bahke limi renan kehm tahme kehnge goji nsoo ewame, mmonse nlum noa tohko jol aname? E,ee! Ka nongo me n nyehn ejum ndon ji bahke limi nsoo.>>BSBBSB: For how can I go back to my father without the boy? I could not bear to see the misery that would overwhelm him.”
