Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
Berean Standard Bible
1A LAILA aole e hiki ia Iosepa ke uumi iho i ke aloha iloko ona imua o lakou a pau, o ka poe i ku pu mai la me ia: a hea aku la ia, E hele aku na kanaka a pau iwaho, mai o'u aku nei. Aole i noho mai kekahi kanaka me ia, i ka manawa a Iosepa i hoike ai ia ia iho i kona poe hoahanau.
1Then Joseph could no longer control himself before all his attendants, and he cried out, “Send everyone away from me!” So none of them were with Joseph when he made himself known to his brothers.
2Hooho ae la ia i kona leo me ka uwe nui ana: a lohe ae la na kanaka o Aigupita a lohe pu no ko ka hale o Parao.
2But he wept so loudly that the Egyptians heard him, and Pharaoh’s household soon heard of it.
3Olelo aku la o Iosepa i kona poe hoahanau, Owau no o Iosepa; ke ola la no anei ko'u makuakane? Aole i hiki ke ekemu iki mai kona poe hoahanau ia ia: no ka mea, makau nui iho lakou imua ona.
3Joseph said to his brothers, “I am Joseph! Is my father still alive?” But they were unable to answer him, because they were terrified in his presence.
4A olelo aku la o Iosepa i kona poe hoahanau, E neenee mai oukou io'u nei. A neenee mai la lakou. Olelo aku la ia, Owau no o Iosepa, ko oukou kaikaina a oukou i kuai ai iloko o Aigupita.
4Then Joseph said to his brothers, “Please come near me.” And they did so. “I am Joseph, your brother,” he said, “the one you sold into Egypt!
5Eia hoi, mai hookaumaha oukou, aole hoi e huhu oukou ia oukou iho i ka oukou kuai ana ia'u ia nei. No ka mea, na ke Akua au i hoouna mai mamua o oukou e hoola aku.
5And now, do not be distressed or angry with yourselves that you sold me into this place, because it was to save lives that God sent me before you.
6No ka mea, ua wi ae nei ka aina i keia mau makahiki elua; a elima hoi makahiki e koe, aole e mahi, aole hoi e ohi mai.
6For the famine has covered the land these two years, and there will be five more years without plowing or harvesting.
7A ua hoouna mai ke Akua ia'u mamua o oukou, e hookoe aku ia oukou ma ka honua, a e hoola ia oukou i ke ola nui.
7God sent me before you to preserve you as a remnant on the earth and to save your lives by a great deliverance.
8Aia hoi, aole na oukou i hoouna mai au ia nei, na ke Akua no, a ua hoolilo ae ia ia'u i makuakane no Parao, a i haku no kona hale a pau, a i kiaaina no Aigupita a pau.
8Therefore it was not you who sent me here, but God, who has made me a father to Pharaoh—lord of all his household and ruler over all the land of Egypt.
9E wikiwiki oukou, e hoi aku i ko'u makuakane, a e i aku ia ia, Penei i olelo mai ai kau keiki o Iosepa, Ua hoolilo mai ke Akua ia'u, i haku no ka aina o Aigupita a pau; e hele mai oe ilalo io'u nei, mai hookaulua aku oe.
9Now return quickly 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 without delay.
10A e noho oe ma ka aina o Gosena, a e kokoke mai oe me au, o oe, a me kau poe keiki, a me kau poe moopuna, a o kau poe hipa a me kau poe holoholona a me kou mea a pau loa.
10You shall settle in the land of Goshen and be near me—you and your children and grandchildren, your flocks and herds, and everything you own.
11Ilaila au e malama'i ia oe: no ka mea, elima makahiki wi a koe; o ilihune oe, a me ko ka hale ou, a me kau mau mea a pau.
11And there I will provide for you, because there will be five more years of famine. Otherwise, you and your household and everything you own will come to destitution.’
12Aia hoi, ua ike ko oukou mau maka, a me ka maka o ko'u kaikaina, o Beniamina, o ko'u waha no ka i olelo aku ia oukou.
12Behold! You and my brother Benjamin can see that I, Joseph, am the one speaking with you.
13A e hai aku oukou i ko'u makuakane i kuu hanohano a pau ma Aigupita nei, a i na mea a pau a oukou i ike ai: a e wikiwiki oukou e lawe mai i ko'u makuakane ilalo.
13Tell my father about all my splendor in Egypt and everything you have seen. And bring my father down here quickly.”
14Kau iho la ia ma ka a-i o kona kaikaina, o Beniamina, a uwe iho la; a uwe iho la hoi o Beniamina ma kona a-i.
14Then Joseph threw his arms around his brother Benjamin and wept, and Benjamin wept as they embraced.
15Honi aku la o Iosepa i kona poe hoahanau a pau, a uwe iho la iluna o lakou. A mahope iho o ia mea, kamailio pu kona poe hoahanau me ia.
15Joseph kissed each of his brothers as he wept over them. And afterward his brothers talked with him.
16Lohea iho la keia mea ma ka hale o Parao, oleloia iho la, Ua hiki mai na hoahanau o Iosepa. Ua pono hoi ia i na maka o Parao, a i na maka o kana poe kauwa.
16When the news reached Pharaoh’s house that Joseph’s brothers had come, Pharaoh and his servants were pleased.
17Olelo mai la o Parao ia Iosepa, E i aku oe i kou poe hoahanau, E hana peneia, e kau i ko oukou mea ma na hoki a hoi aku a hiki i ka aina o Kanaana.
17Pharaoh said to Joseph, “Tell your brothers, ‘Do as follows: Load your animals and return to the land of Canaan.
18E kii i ko oukou makuakane, a me na mea o ko oukou hale, a e hele mai io'u nei, a na'u no e haawi aku na oukou i ka maikai o ka aina o Aigupita, a e ai hoi oukou i ka momona o ka aina.
18Then bring your father and your families and return to me. I will give you the best of the land of Egypt, and you shall eat from the fat of the land.’
19Ua kauohaia oe, e hana hoi i keia, E lawe i mau kaa no oukou, mai ka aina o Aigupita aku, no ka oukou kamalii a no ka oukou wahine, a e kii i ko oukou makuakane, a e hele mai.
19You are also directed to tell them: ‘Take wagons from the land of Egypt for your young children and your wives, and bring your father and come back.
20Mai aua ko oukou mau maka ma ko oukou mea a pau; no ka mea, no oukou ka maikai o ka aina a pau ma Aigupita.
20But pay no regard to your belongings, for the best of all the land of Egypt is yours.’”
21A hana iho la na keiki a Iseraela pela; a haawi aku la o Iosepa ia lakou i mau kaa e like me ka olelo a Parao, a haawi no hoi i o na lakou ma ke ala.
21So the sons of Israel did as they were told. Joseph gave them wagons as Pharaoh had instructed, and he also gave them provisions for their journey.
22Haawi aku la hoi ia i kapa komo no lakou a pau; a ia Beniamina, haawi aku la oia ia ia, i ekolu haneri moni, a me na kapa komo elima.
22He gave new garments to each of them, but to Benjamin he gave three hundred shekels of silver and five sets of clothes.
23A hoouna aku la ia no kona makuakane, he umi na hoki e lawe ana i na mea maikai o Aigupita, a he umi na hoki wahine, e lawe ana i ka palaoa a me ka ai i o na kona makuakane ma ke alanui.
23And he sent to his father the following: ten donkeys loaded with the best of Egypt, and ten female donkeys loaded with grain and bread and provisions for his father’s journey.
24Pela hoi i hoouna aku ai oia i kona poe hoahanau, a hoi aku la lakou. Olelo aku ia ia lakou, Mai paio oukou ma ke alanui.
24Then Joseph sent his brothers on their way, and as they were leaving, he said to them, “Do not quarrel on the way!”
25A hoi aku la lakou, mai waho mai o Aigupita, a hiki aku la i ka aina o Kanaana, ia Iakoba, i ko lakou makuakane.
25So the brothers went up out of Egypt and came to their father Jacob in the land of Canaan.
26A hai aku la lakou ia ia, i aku la, E, ke ola la no o Iosepa, oia ke kiaaina o ka aina o Aigupita a pau. A maule iho la ko Iakoba naau, no ka mea, aole kela i manaoio i ka.
26“Joseph is still alive,” they said, “and he is ruler over all the land of Egypt!” But Jacob was stunned, for he did not believe them.
27Alaila, hai aku la lakou ia ia i ka olelo a pau a Iosepa i olelo mai ai ia lakou. A ike aku la ia i na kaa a Iosepa i hoouna mai ai e lawe ia ia, pohala iho la ka naau o ko lakou makuakane.
27However, when they relayed all that Joseph had told them, and when he saw the wagons that Joseph had sent to carry him back, the spirit of their father Jacob was revived.
28A olelo aku la Iseraela, Ua nui ia, na ola o Iosepa kuu keiki; e hele aku au e ike ia ia mamua o kuu make ana.
28“Enough!” declared Israel. “My son Joseph is still alive! I will go to see him before I die.”
