Bible Mutal (Kosraean)
1After these things, it was told Joseph that his father was sick: and he set out to go to him, taking his two sons Manasses and Ephraim.
1Kutu pacl tok, fwackyang nu sel Joseph lah papa tumal ah mas. Ke ma inge el us wen luo natul ah, Manasseh ac Ephraim, ac som in liyal Jacob.
2And it was told the old man: Behold thy son Joseph cometh to thee. And being strengthened he sat on his bed.
2Ke fwackyang nu sel Jacob lah Joseph wen natul el tuku, Jacob el sang kuiyal nufon ac tukakek muta fin mwe oan kial.
3And when Joseph was come in to him, he said: God Almighty appeared to me at Luza, which is in the land of Chanaan: and he blessed me,
3Jacob el fahk nu sel Joseph, “God Kulana El tuh sikme nu sik in acn Luz in Canaan ac akinsewowoyeyu.
4And he said: I will cause thee to increase and multiply, and I will make of thee a multitude of people: and I will give this land to thee, and to thy seed after thee for an everlasting possession.
4El fahk nu sik, ‘Nga ac sot tulik puspis nutum, tuh fwil nutum fah orala mutunfacl puspis. Nga fah sang facl se inge nu sin fita nutum tuh in ma lalos nwe tok.’”
5So thy two sons who were born to thee in the land of Egypt before I came hither to thee, shall be mine: Ephraim and Manasses shall be reputed to me as Ruben and Simeon.
5Jacob el tafwelana ac fahk, “Joseph, wen luo nutum ma isusla Egypt meet liki nga tuku nu inge, ac ma nutik. Ephraim ac Manasseh ac fah oaoa in wen nutik oapana Reuben ac Simeon.
6But the rest whom thou shalt have after them, shall be thine, and shall be called by the name of their brethren in their possessions.
6Fin ac oasr pac wen nutum tokoltal, elos ac fah tia oaoa mu ma nutik. Usru lalos uh elos ac fah eis sel Ephraim ac Manasseh.
7For, when I came out of Mesopotamia, Rachel died from me in the land of Chanaan in the very journey, and it was springtime: and I was going to Ephrata, and I buried her near the way of Ephrata, which by another name is called Bethlehem.
7Nga oru ange ke sripal Rachel, nina kiom. Yohk asor luk ke el misa in acn Canaan apkuran nu Ephrath, ke nga tuh folok liki acn Mesopotamia. Nga puknilya we sisken inkanek nu Ephrath.” (Ephrath pa pangpang Bethlehem in pacl inge.)
8Then seeing his sons, he said to him: Who are these?
8Ke Jacob el liye wen luo natul Joseph ah, el siyuk, “Su tulik ingan?”
9He answered: They are my sons, whom God hath given me in this place. And he said: Bring them to me that I may bless them.
9Ac Joseph el fahk, “Pa inge wen luo nutik ma God El ase nu sik yenu in acn Egypt.” Jacob el fahk, “Usaltalu nu yuruk, nga in akinsewowoyaltalla.”
10For Israel’s eyes were dim by reason of his great age, and he could not see clearly. And when they were brought to him, he kissed and embraced them.
10Mutawauk in ohkla mutal Jacob ke sripen matuoh lal, ac el tia arulana liye wo. Joseph el kolla tulik luo ah nu yorol, ac el kafiseltalma nu yorol ac ngok mutaltal.
11And said to his son: I am not deprived of seeing thee: moreover God hath showed me thy seed.
11Jacob el fahk nu sel Joseph, “Nga tiana nunku mu nga ac sifilpa liye kom, a inge God El oru tuh ngan liye pac tulik nutum uh.”
12And when Joseph had taken them from his father’s lap, he bowed down with his face to the ground.
12Na Joseph el srakla tulik luo ah liki finyepal Jacob, ac pasrla nwe infohk uh ye mutal.
13And he set Ephraim on his right hand, that is, towards the left hand of Israel; but Manasses on his left hand, to wit, towards his father’s right hand, and brought them near to him.
13Joseph el fililya Ephraim ke layen lasa lal Jacob, ac Manasseh ke layen layot.
14But he stretching forth his right hand, put it upon the head of Ephraim the younger brother; and the left upon the head of Manasses who was the elder, changing his hands.
14Tusruktu Jacob el eklalik paol, ac filiya lac paol layot lal fin sifal Ephraim, finne el pa fusr seltal, ac lac paol lasa fin sifal Manasseh, su matu.
15And Jacob blessed the sons of Joseph, and said: God, in whose sight my fathers Abraham and Isaac walked, God that feedeth me from my youth until this day;
15Na Jacob el akinsewowoyal Joseph ac fahk, “Lela tuh God, su Abraham ac Isaac papa tumuk tuh kulansap nu se, Elan akinsewowoye tulik luo inge! Lela tuh God, su kolyu nwe misenge, Elan akinsewowoyaltal!
16The angel that delivereth me from all evils, bless these boys: and let my name be called upon them, and the names of my fathers Abraham, and Isaac, and may they grow into a multitude upon the earth.
16Lela tuh lipufan se, su moliyula liki ongoiya nukewa, in akinsewowoyaltal. Lela tuh inek ac inel Abraham ac Isaac papa tumuk, in esamyuk ke sripen tulik mukul inge! Lela tuh in pukanten tulik natultal, ac fwilin tulik natulos!”
17And Joseph seeing that his father had put his right hand upon the head of Ephraim, was much displeased: and taking his father’s hand he tried to lift it from Ephraim’s head, and to remove it to the head of Manasses.
17Joseph el toasrla ke el liye lah papa tumal ah filiya lac paol layot fin sifal Ephraim. Ouinge el sruokya poun papa tumal in srakla liki fin sifal Ephraim nu fin sifal Manasseh.
18And he said to his father: It should not be so, my father: for this is the firstborn, put thy right hand upon his head.
18El fahk nu sin papa tumal ah, “Tia pa ingan, papa. Tulik se ma matu ah pa inge. Likiya lac poum layot fin sifal.”
19But he refusing, said: I know, my son, I know: and this also shall become peoples, and shall be multiplied: but this younger brother shall be greater than he: and his seed shall grow into nations.
19Papa tumal ah tia insese kac. El fahk, “Wen nutik, nga etu. Nga etu lah fwilin tulik natul Manasseh ac fah oayapa orala sie mutunfacl lulap. Tusruktu tamulel fusr lal el ac fah yohk lukel, ac fita natul fah orala mutunfacl lulap puspis.”
20And he blessed them at that time, saying: In thee shall Israel be blessed, and it shall be said: God do to thee as to Ephraim, and as to Manasses. And he set Ephraim before Manasses.
20Ouinge el akinsewowoyaltal ke len sac, ac fahk, “Mwet Israel fah orekmakin inemtal ke elos ac fahk kas in akinsewowoye mwet uh. Elos ac fahk, ‘God Elan akinsewowoye kom oana ke El akinsewowoyal Ephraim ac Manasseh.’” Ke Jacob el oru ouinge uh, el likilya Ephraim meet lukel Manasseh.
21And he said to Joseph his son: Behold I die, and God will be with you, and will bring you back into the land of your fathers.
21Toko Jacob el fahk nu sel Joseph, “Oana ke kom akilen uh, nga apkuran in misa, tusruktu God El ac fah wi kom ac El ac fah folokinkomla nu ke facl sin papa matu tomom.
22I give thee a portion above thy brethren, which I took out of the hand of the Amorrhite with my sword and bow.
22Nga sot nu sum acn Shechem — acn se ma wo fohk we uh, su nga tuh eisla sin mwet Amor ke mweun luk. Nga tia sang acn we nu sin tamulel wiom.”
