1Ke ma inge Joseph el eis limekosr sin mwet lel ac som nu yorol tokosra. El fahk nu sel tokosra, “Papa tumuk ac mwet lik nukewa tuku tari liki acn Canaan, us un kosro natulos ac ma nukewa lalos. Ingena elos muta oasr in acn Goshen.”
1So Joseph went and told Pharaoh: “My father and my brothers, with their flocks and herds and all they own, have come from the land of Canaan and are now in Goshen.”
2Na toko el tukakunang mwet wial nu sel tokosra.
2And he chose five of his brothers and presented them before Pharaoh.
3Ac tokosra el siyuk selos, “Orekma su lomtal?” Ac elos topuk, “Leum lasr, kut mwet shepherd oana mwet matu lasr somla.
3“What is your occupation?” Pharaoh asked Joseph’s brothers. “Your servants are shepherds,” they replied, “both we and our fathers.”
4Kut tuku in muta in facl se inge, mweyen sracl se inge arulana upa in acn Canaan, ac wangin mah kosro natusr uh in kang we. Nunak munas, lela nu sesr in muta in acn Goshen.”
4Then they said to Pharaoh, “We have come to live in the land for a time, because there is no pasture for the flocks of your servants, since the famine in the land of Canaan has been severe. So now, please allow your servants to settle in the land of Goshen.”
5Tokosra el fahk nu sel Joseph, “Inge ke papa tomom ac mwet lim nukewa tuku tari,
5Pharaoh said to Joseph, “Now that your father and brothers have come to you,
6elos sukosok in muta kutena acn in facl Egypt. Tuh lela elos in oakwuki in acn Goshen, acn ma wo emeet in facl se inge. Ac fin oasr mwet pisrla inmasrlolos, sang in karingin un kosro nutik.”
6the land of Egypt is before you; settle your father and brothers in the best part of the land. They may dwell in the land of Goshen. And if you know of any talented men among them, put them in charge of my own livestock.”
7Toko Joseph el usalu Jacob, papa tumal, ac tukakunulang nu sel tokosra. Jacob el akinsewowoyal tokosra,
7Then Joseph brought in his father Jacob and presented him before Pharaoh, and Jacob blessed Pharaoh.
8ac tokosra el siyuk sel, “Kom yac ekasr?”
8“How many years have you lived?” Pharaoh asked.
9Jacob el topuk, “Nga tuh forot forma liki facl nu ke facl ke yac siofok tolngoul. Yac in forfor luk inge tiana pus, tusruktu arulana upa — tia oana yac puspis ma mwet matu luk elos tuh fufahsryesr kac meet ah.”
9“My travels have lasted 130 years,” Jacob replied. “My years have been few and hard, and they have not matched the years of the travels of my fathers.”
10Jacob el sifilpa akinsewowoyal tokosra na el som liki inkul sin tokosra.
10Then Jacob blessed Pharaoh and departed from his presence.
11Na Joseph el oakiya papa tumal ac mwet lel nukewa in Egypt, ac sang acn lalos ke acn ma wo oemeet, yen ma apkuran nu ke siti lun Rameses, oana ke tokosra el sap.
11So Joseph settled his father and brothers in the land of Egypt and gave them property in the best part of the land, the district of Rameses, as Pharaoh had commanded.
12Joseph el fosrngakin mwe mongo nun papa tumal, mwet lel kewa, ac mwet saya nukewa in sou lun papa tumal, weang pac tulik srisrik nukewa.
12Joseph also provided his father and brothers and all his father’s household with food for their families.
13Sracl sac tuh arulana upa, oru wanginla mongo in acn nukewa, na mwet Egypt ac mwet Canaan elos munasla ke masrinsral.
13There was no food, however, in all that region, because the famine was so severe; the lands of Egypt and Canaan had been exhausted by the famine.
14Ke elos moli wheat uh, Joseph el eisani mani nukewa ac usla nu inkul fulat sel tokosra.
14Joseph collected all the money to be found in the land of Egypt and the land of Canaan in exchange for the grain they were buying, and he brought it into Pharaoh’s palace.
15Ke lisr mani nukewa in acn Egypt ac Canaan, mwet Egypt elos tuku nu yorol Joseph ac fahk, “Se kutu mongo ah nasr! Nimet lela kut in misa. Kasrekut! Lisr nufon mani lasr uh!”
15When the money from the lands of Egypt and Canaan was gone, all the Egyptians came to Joseph and said, “Give us food. Why should we die before your eyes? For our funds have run out!”
16Ac Joseph el fahk, “Use un kosro nutuwos an. Nga ac sot mwe mongo in sang aol, fin lisr nufon mani an.”
16“Then bring me your livestock,” said Joseph. “Since the money is gone, I will sell you food in exchange for your livestock.”
17Ke ma inge elos use kosro natulos nu yorol Joseph, ac el sang mwe mongo aolla horse, sheep, nani, cow, ac donkey natulos uh. Ke yac sac el sang mwe mongo aol kain in kosro nukewa.
17So they brought their livestock to Joseph, and he gave them food in exchange for their horses, their flocks and herds, and their donkeys. Throughout that year he provided them with food in exchange for all their livestock.
18Yac toko ah, elos sifilpa foloko nu yorol ac fahk, “Kut ac tia wikin nu sum lah pwaye lisr mani lasr uh, ac inge kosro natusr nukewa ma pac nutum. Wangin ma lula yorosr in sot nu sum sayen manosr ac acn lasr uh.
18When that year was over, they came to him the second year and said, “We cannot hide from our lord that our money is gone and all our livestock belongs to you. There is nothing left for our lord except our bodies and our land.
19Nik kom lela kut in misa. Kasrekut! Nimet lela ima lasr uh in sisila. Molikutla ac acn lasr uh ke mwe mongo. Kut ac fah mwet kohs lal tokosra, ac acn lasr uh ac fah ma lal. Se kutu wheat an nasr kut in tia misa, ac kutu fita an nu sesr kut in yukwiya in ima lasr uh.
19Why should we perish before your eyes—we and our land as well? Purchase us and our land in exchange for food. Then we, along with our land, will be slaves to Pharaoh. Give us seed that we may live and not die, and that the land may not become desolate.”
20Joseph el molela acn nukewa in Egypt lal tokosra. Ke sripen sracl sac arulana upa, mwet Egypt nukewa kukakunla acn lalos, ac facl sac nufon ma lac lal tokosra.
20So Joseph acquired for Pharaoh all the land in Egypt; the Egyptians, one and all, sold their fields because the famine was so severe upon them. The land became Pharaoh’s,
21Joseph el oru tuh mwet yen nukewa in facl Egypt elos in mwet kohs lac lal tokosra.
21and Joseph reduced the people to servitude from one end of Egypt to the other.
22Pwayena acn el tia molela pa acn lun mwet tol. Mwet tol elos tia enenu in kukakin acn lalos uh, mweyen oasr kasru lun tokosra nu selos ke mwe mongo pacl nukewa, ac ma inge pa elos moulkin uh.
22However, he did not acquire the priests’ portion of the land, for it had been given to them by Pharaoh. They ate the rations that Pharaoh supplied; so they did not sell their land.
23Joseph el fahk nu sin mwet uh, “Liye, nga molikowosla ac facl suwos nukewa tari tuh in ma lal tokosra. Ac fita pa inge, ma kowos in yoki in ima lowos.
23Then Joseph said to the people, “Now that I have acquired you and your land for Pharaoh this day, here is seed for you to sow in the land.
24Fin sun pacl in kosrani, kowos enenu in sang sie tafu limekosr lal tokosra. Ma lula an kowos ku in orekmakin nu ke mwe yok, ac mwe mongo nowos ac sou lowos an.”
24At harvest time, you are to give a fifth of it to Pharaoh, and four-fifths will be yours as seed for the field and food for yourselves and your households and children.”
25Ac elos topuk, “Leum lasr, kut ac fah mwet kohs lal tokosra, mweyen kom oru wo nu sesr ac molikutla.”
25“You have saved our lives,” they said. “We have found favor in our lord’s eyes, and we will be Pharaoh’s servants.”
26Ouinge Joseph el orala tuh in sie ma sap in facl Egypt, tuh sie tafu limekosr ke ma kosrani in ma lun tokosra. Ma sap se inge srakna orekmakinyuk nwe misenge. Acn lun mwet tol mukena tia wi oaoala mu ma lun tokosra.
26So Joseph established a law that a fifth of the produce belongs to Pharaoh, and it is in effect in the land of Egypt to this day. Only the priests’ land does not belong to Pharaoh.
27Mwet Israel elos muta Egypt in acn Goshen, yen ma elos kasrupi we ac pukanteni tulik natulos.
27Now the Israelites settled in the land of Egypt, in the region of Goshen. They acquired property there and became fruitful and increased greatly in number.
28Jacob el muta Egypt yac singoul itkosr, nwe ke el sun yac siofok angngaul itkosr.
28And Jacob lived in the land of Egypt seventeen years, and the length of his life was 147 years.
29Ke el apkuran in misa, el solalma Joseph, wen natul, ac fahk nu sel, “Likiya poum inmasrlon epuk ac oru sie wulela na ku an lah kom ac tia pikinyuwi in acn Egypt.
29When the time drew near for Israel to die, he called his son Joseph and said to him, “If I have found favor in your eyes, put your hand under my thigh and promise to show me kindness and faithfulness. Do not bury me in Egypt,
30Nga lungse pukpuki yen na papa tumuk elos pukpuki we. Usyula liki acn Egypt ac pikinyuwi yen elos pukpuki we.” Ac Joseph el fahk, “Nga ac oru oana kom fahk an.”
30but when I lie down with my fathers, carry me out of Egypt and bury me with them.” Joseph answered, “I will do as you have requested.”
31Jacob el fahk, “Fulahk lah kom ac oru ouingan.” Na Joseph el orala fulahk lal, ac Jacob el oanna fin mwe oan kial, ac fahk kulo nu sel Joseph.
31“Swear to me,” Jacob said. So Joseph swore to him, and Israel bowed in worship at the head of his bed.
