1Pea naʻe lahi ʻaupito ʻae honge ʻi he fonua.
1Ὁ δὲ λιμὸς ἐνίσχυσεν ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς.
2Pea ʻi heʻene ʻosi ʻenau kai ʻae koane naʻa nau ʻomi mei ʻIsipite, naʻe pehē ʻenau tamai kiate kinautolu, “Toe ʻalu ʻo fakatau ʻetau meʻakai siʻi.”
2Ἐγένετο δὲ ἡνίκα συνετέλεσαν καταφαγεῖν τὸν σῖτον, ὃν ἤνεγκαν ἐξ Αἰγύπτου, καὶ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς ὁ πατὴρ αὐτῶν, πάλιν πορευθέντες πρίασθε ἡμῖν μικρὰ βρώματα.
3Pea lea ʻa Siuta kiate ia, ʻo pehē, “Naʻe lea fakatotonu mai ʻae tangata kiate kimautolu, ʻo pehē, ‘E ʻikai te mou mamata ki hoku mata, ʻo kapau ʻe ʻikai ʻiate kimoutolu homou tehina.’
3Εἶπε δὲ αὐτῷ Ἰούδας, λέγων, διαμαρτυρίᾳ μεμαρτύρηται ἡμῖν ὁ ἄνθρωπος ὁ κύριος τῆς γῆς, λέγων, οὐκ ὄψεσθε τὸ πρόσωπόν μου, ἐὰν μὴ ὁ ἀδελφὸς ὑμῶν ὁ νεώτερος μεθʼ ὑμῶν ᾖ.
4Pea kapau te ke tuku homau tehina ke ʻalu mo kimautolu, pea te mau toe ʻalu hifo ʻo fakatau hao meʻakai.”
4Εἰ μὲν οὖν ἀποστέλλῃς τὸν ἀδελφὸν ἡμῶν μεθʼ ἡμῶν, καταβησόμεθα, καὶ ἀγοράσομέν σοι βρώματα.
5Pea kapau ʻe ʻikai te ke tuku mai ia, ʻe ʻikai te mau ʻalu; he naʻe pehē ʻe he tangata kiate kimautolu, E ʻikai te mou mamata ki hoku mata, ʻo kapau ʻe ʻikai ʻiate kimoutolu homou tehina.”
5Εἰ δὲ μὴ ἀποστέλλῃς τὸν ἀδελφὸν ἡμῶν μεθʼ ἡμῶν, οὐ πορευσόμεθα· ὁ γὰρ ἄνθρωπος εἶπεν ἡμῖν, λέγων, οὐκ ὄψεσθέ μου τὸ πρόσωπον, ἐὰν μὴ ὁ ἀδελφὸς ὑμῶν ὁ νεώτερος μεθʼ ὑμῶν ᾖ.
6Pea pehē ʻe ʻIsileli, “Ko e hā naʻa mou fai kovi pehē ai kiate au, koeʻuhi ke fakahā ki he tangata ʻoku toe homou tehina?”
6Εἶπε δὲ Ἰσραὴλ, τί ἐκακοποιήσατέ με, ἀναγγείλαντες τῷ ἀνθρώπῳ ὅτι ἐστὶν ὑμῖν ἀδελφός;
7Pea naʻa nau pehē, “Naʻe fehuʻi fakatotonu mai ʻe he tangata ki he ʻemau nofo, ʻa mo homau ngaahi kāinga, ʻo pehē, ʻOku kei moʻui hoʻomou tamai? ʻOku ai homou tehina? Pea naʻa mau tala kiate ia ʻo hangē ko e lea ni; he naʻa mau teitei ʻilo te ne lea, ʻo pehē, ‘Omi homou tehina ki heni?’”
7Οἱ δὲ εἶπαν, ἐρωτῶν ἐπηρώτησεν ἡμᾶς ὁ ἄνθρωπος καὶ τὴν γενεὰν ἡμῶν, λέγων, εἰ ἔτι ὁ πατὴρ ὑμῶν ζῇ, καὶ εἰ ἔστιν ὑμῖν ἀδελφός· καὶ ἀπηγγείλαμεν αὐτῷ κατὰ τὴν ἐπερώτησιν ταύτην· μὴ ᾔδειμεν ὅτι ἐρεῖ ἡμῖν, ἀγάγετε τὸν ἀδελφὸν ὑμῶν;
8Pea pehē ʻe Siuta ki heʻene tamai ko ʻIsileli, “Tuku mai ʻae tamasiʻi kia au, pea te mau tuʻu hake ʻo ʻalu; koeʻuhi ke mau moʻui, kaeʻoua naʻa tau mate, ʻio, ʻakimautolu mo koe, mo e mau tamaiki foki.
8Εἶπε δὲ Ἰούδας πρὸς Ἰσραὴλ τὸν πατέρα αὐτοῦ, ἀπόστειλον τὸ παιδάριον μετʼ ἐμοῦ· καὶ ἀναστάντες πορευσόμεθα, ἵνα ζῶμεν καὶ μὴ ἀποθάνωμεν καὶ ἡμεῖς, καὶ σὺ, καὶ ἡ ἀποσκευὴ ἡμῶν.
9Te u totongi ia; te ke maʻu ia ʻi hoku nima: kapau ʻe ʻikai te u toe ʻomi ʻo tuku ia ʻi ho ʻao, ke ʻiate au hono kovi ʻo taʻengata:”
9Ἐγὼ δὲ ἐκδέχομαι αὐτόν· ἐκ χειρός μου ζήτησον αὐτόν· ἐὰν μὴ ἀγάγω αὐτὸν πρός σε, καὶ στήσω αὐτὸν ἐναντίον σου, ἡμαρτηκὼς ἔσομαι εἰς σὲ πάσας τὰς ἡμέραν.
10He ko e moʻoni, ka ne ʻikai ko e tau fakatuotuai ni, pehē kuo mau toe liu mai ko hono tuʻo ua.
10Εἰ μὴ γὰρ ἐβραδύναμεν, ἤδη ἂν ὑπεστρέψαμεν δίς.
11Pea pehē ʻe heʻenau tamai ko ʻIsileli kiate kinautolu, “Kapau ko ia, pea mou fai eni; ʻave ʻae ngaahi fua fungani lelei ʻoe fonua ʻi hoʻomou ngaahi tangai, pea mou ʻave ia, ko e meʻaʻofa ki he tangata, ko e paame, mo e hone, mo e ʻakau namu lelei, mo e paame nanamu, mo e ngaahi foʻi ai, mo e telie.
11Εἶπε δὲ αὐτοῖς Ἰσραὴλ ὁ πατὴρ αὐτῶν, εἰ οὕτως ἐστὶ, τοῦτο ποιήσατε· λάβετε ἀπὸ τῶν καρπῶν τῆς γῆς ἐν τοῖς ἀγγείοις ὑμῶν, καὶ καταγάγετε τῷ ἀνθρώπῳ δῶρα τῆς ῥητίνης, καὶ τοῦ μέλιτος, θυμίαμά τε καὶ στακτὴν, καὶ τερέινθον, καὶ κάρυα.
12Pea ʻave ʻae kato paʻanga ʻe ua ʻi homou nima; pea mo e paʻanga naʻe toe ʻomi ʻi he ngutu ʻo hoʻomou tangai, toe ʻave ia ʻi homou nima: naʻa ko ha fai noa nai;”
12Καὶ τὸ ἀργύριον δισσὸν λάβετε ἐν ταῖς χερσὶν ὑμῶν· τὸ ἀργύριον τὸ ἀποστραφὲν ἐν τοῖς μαρσίπποις ὑμῶν ἀποστρέψατε μεθʼ ὑμῶν· μή ποτε ἀγνόημά ἐστι.
13ʻAve foki mo homou tehina, pea mou tuʻu ʻo toe ʻalu ki he tangata:
13Καὶ τὸν ἀδελφὸν ὑμῶν λάβετε· καὶ ἀναστάντες κατάβητε πρὸς τὸν ἄνθρωπον.
14Pea ke tuku kiate kimoutolu ʻe he ʻOtua Māfimafi ʻae ʻofa ʻi he ʻao ʻoe tangata, koeʻuhi ke ne toe tuku mai homou tokoua ʻe taha, mo Penisimani. Kapau ʻe fakamasiva au ʻi heʻeku fānau, kuo u masiva moʻoni.
14Ὁ δὲ Θεός μου δώῃ ὑμῖν χάριν ἐναντίον τοῦ ἀνθρώπου καὶ ἀποστείλαι τὸν ἀδελφὸν ὑμῶν τὸν ἕνα, καὶ τὸν Βενιαμίν· ἐγὼ μὲν γὰρ καθάπερ ἠτέκνωμαι, ἠτέκνωμαι.
15¶ Pea naʻe ʻave ʻe he kau tangata ʻae meʻaʻofa, pea naʻa nau toʻo ʻae kato paʻanga ʻe ua ʻi honau nima, pea mo Penisimani; pea naʻa nau tutuʻu hake ʻo toe ʻalu ki ʻIsipite, ʻo nau tutuʻu ʻi he ʻao ʻo Siosefa.
15Λαβόντες δὲ οἱ ἄνδρες τὰ δῶρα ταῦτα καὶ τὸ ἀργύριον διπλοῦν, ἔλαβον ἐν ταῖς χερσὶν αὐτῶν καὶ τὸν Βενιαμείν· καὶ ἀναστάντες κατέβησαν εἰς Αἴγυπτον· καὶ ἔστησαν ἐναντίον Ἰωσήφ.
16Pea ʻi he mamata ʻa Siosefa ʻoku ʻiate kinautolu ʻa Penisimani, pea pehē ʻe ia ki he pule ʻo hono fale; “Omi ʻae kau tangata ni ki ʻapi, pea tāmateʻi ha manu mo teuteu; he te mau kai mo e kau tangata ʻi he hoʻatā.”
16Εἶδε δὲ Ἰωσὴφ αὐτοὺς, καὶ τὸν Βενιαμὶν τὸν ἀδελφὸν αὐτοῦ τὸν ὁμομήτριον· καὶ εἶπε τῷ ἐπὶ τῆς οἰκίας αὐτοῦ, εἰσάγαγε τοὺς ἀνθρώπους εἰς τὴν οἰκίαν, καὶ σφάξον θύματα, καὶ ἑτοίμασον· μετʼ ἐμοῦ γὰρ φάγονται οἱ ἄνθρωποι ἄρτους τὴν μεσημβρίαν.
17Pea naʻe fai ʻe he tangata ʻo hangē ko e fekau ʻa Siosefa; pea naʻe ʻomi ʻe he tangata ʻae kau tangata ki he fale ʻo Siosefa.
17Ἐποίησε δὲ ὁ ἄνθρωπος καθὰ εἶπεν Ἰωσήφ· καὶ εἰσήγαγε τοὺς ἀνθρώπους εἰς τὸν οἶκον Ἰωσήφ.
18Pea naʻe manavahē ʻae kau tangata, koeʻuhi ko e ʻave ʻakinautolu ki he fale ʻo Siosefa; pea naʻa nau pehē, “Kuo ʻomi ʻakitautolu ki heni, ko e meʻa ʻi he paʻanga nai, naʻe toe tuku mai ʻi heʻetau tangai, ʻi he fuofua haʻu; koeʻuhi ke nau fakahalaʻi ʻaki ʻakitautolu, ʻo ʻoho mai kiate kitautolu, ʻo puke ʻo fakapōpulaʻi ʻakitautolu, mo ʻetau fanga ʻasi.”
18Ἰδόντες δὲ οἱ ἄνδρες ὅτι εἰσήχθησαν εἰς τὸν οἶκον τοῦ Ἰωσήφ, εἶπαν, διὰ τὸ ἀργύριον τὸ ἀποστραφὲν ἐν τοῖς μαρσίπποις ἡμῶν τὴν ἀρχὴν, ἡμεῖς εἰσαγόμεθα, τοῦ συκοφαντῆσαι ἡμᾶς καὶ ἐπιθέσθαι ἡμῖν, τοῦ λαβεῖν ἡμᾶς εἰς παῖδας, καὶ τοὺς ὄνους ἡμῶν.
19Pea naʻa nau ʻunuʻunu ʻo ofi ki he tauhi ʻoe fale ʻo Siosefa, ʻo nau alea mo ia ʻi he matapā ʻoe fale,
19Προσελθόντες δὲ πρὸς τὸν ἄνθρωπον τὸν ἐπὶ τοῦ οἴκου τοῦ Ἰωσὴφ, ἐλάλησαν αὐτῷ ἐν τῷ πυλῶνι τοῦ οἴκου,
20ʻO pehē, “E ʻeiki, ko e moʻoni naʻa mau fuofua haʻu ke fakatau meʻakai:
20λέγοντες, δεόμεθα, κύριε· κατέβηεν τὴν ἀρχὴν πρίασθαι βρώματα.
21Pea ʻi he ʻemau hoko ki he fale talifononga, pea mau vete ʻemau tangai, pea vakai, kuo taki taha ʻae tangata ʻene paʻanga ʻi he ngutu ʻo ʻene tangai, ʻae paʻanga kotoa; pea kuo mau toe ʻomi ia ʻi homau nima.
21Ἐγένετο δὲ ἡνίκα ἤλθομεν εἰς τὸ καταλῦσαι, καὶ ἠνοίξαμεν τοὺς μαρσίππους ἡμῶν, καὶ τόδε τὸ ἀργύριον ἑκάστου ἐν τῷ μαρσίππῳ αὐτοῦ· τὸ ἀργύριον ἡμῶν ἐν σταθμῷ ἀπεστρέψαμεν νῦν ἐν ταῖς χερσὶν ἡμῶν.
22Pea mo e paʻanga kehe kuo mau ʻomi ke fakatau meʻakai: ʻoku ʻikai te mau ʻilo pe ko hai naʻa ne ai ʻemau paʻanga, ki he ʻemau tangai.”
22Καὶ ἀργύριον ἕτερον ἠνέγκαμεν μεθʼ ἑαυτῶν, ἀγοράσαι βρώματα· οὐκ οἴδαμεν τίς ἐνέβαλεν τὸ ἀργύριον εἰς τοὺς μαρσίππους ἡμῶν.
23Pea pehē ʻe ia, “Mou fiemālie, ʻoua te mou manavahē: ko homou ʻOtua, mo e ʻOtua ʻo hoʻomou tamai naʻa ne tuku koloa maʻamoutolu, ki hoʻomou tangai: naʻe ʻiate au hoʻomou paʻanga.” Pea naʻa ne ʻomi ʻa Simione kiate kinautolu.
23Εἶπε δὲ αὐτοῖς, ἵλεως ὑμῖν, μὴ φοβεῖσθε· ὁ Θεὸς ὑμῶν, καὶ ὁ Θεὸς τῶν πατέρων ὑμῶν, ἔδωκεν ὑμῖν θησαυροὺς ἐν τοῖς μαρσίπποις ὑμῶν· καὶ τὸ ἀργύριον ὑμῶν εὐδοκιμοῦν ἀπέχω· καὶ ἐξήγαγε πρὸς αὐτοὺς τὸν Συμεών.
24Pea ʻomi ʻe he tangata ʻae kau tangata ki he fale ʻo Siosefa, ʻo ne ʻatu ʻenau vai, pea fufulu honau vaʻe; pea naʻa ne ʻatu ʻae meʻakai ki heʻenau fanga ʻasi.
24Καὶ ἤνεγκεν ὕδωρ νίψαι τοὺς πόδας αὐτῶν· καὶ ἔδωκε χορτάσματα τοῖς ὄνοις αὐτῶν.
25Pea naʻa nau teuteu ʻae meʻaʻofa ʻo tali ʻae haʻu ki ʻapi ʻa Siosefa ʻi he hoʻatā: he naʻa nau fanongo te nau kai mā ʻi ai.
25Ἡτοίμασαν δὲ τὰ δῶρα, ἕως τοῦ ἐλθεῖν τὸν Ἰωσὴφ μεσημβρίας· ἤκουσαν γὰρ ὅτι ἐκεῖ μέλλει ἀριστᾷν.
26¶ Pea kuo haʻu ʻa Siosefa ki ʻapi, naʻa nau ʻomi kiate ia ki fale ʻae meʻaʻofa naʻe ʻi honau nima, ʻo nau tulolo ʻakinautolu kiate ia ki he kelekele.
26Εἰσῆλθε δὲ Ἰωσὴφ εἰς τὴν οἰκίαν, καὶ προσήνεγκαν αὐτῷ τὰ δῶρα, ἃ εἶχον ἐν ταῖς χερσὶν αὐτῶν, εἰς τὸν οἶκον· καὶ προσεκύνησαν αὐτῷ ἐπὶ πρόσωπον ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν.
27Pea fehuʻi ia kiate kinautolu pe ʻoku nau fēfē, ʻo ne pehē, “ʻOku lelei hoʻomou tamai, ʻae tangata motuʻa naʻa mou lea ki ai? ʻOku kei moʻui ia?”
27Ἠρώτησε δὲ αὐτοὺς, πῶς ἔχετε; καὶ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς, εἰ ὑγιαίνει ὁ πατὴρ ὑμῶν ὁ πρεσβύτης, ὃν εἴπατε; ἔτι ζῇ;
28Pea nau talaange, “Ko hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ko e mau tamai ʻoku mālōlō pe, ʻoku kei moʻui ia.” Pea naʻa nau tulolo honau ʻulu ʻo nau hū.
28Οἱ δὲ εἶπαν, ὑγιαίνει ὁ παῖς σου ὁ πατὴρ ἡμῶν, ἔτι ζῇ. Καὶ εἶπεν, εὐλογημένος ὁ ἄνθρωπος ἐκεῖνος τῷ Θεῷ· καὶ κύψαντες προσεκύνησαν αὐτῷ.
29Pea naʻa ne hanga hake hono mata ʻo mamata ki hono tehina ko Penisimani, ʻae tama ʻa ʻene faʻē, ʻo ne pehē, “Ko homou tehina eni, ʻaia naʻa mou lea ki ai?” Pea pehē ʻe ia, “Ko hoku foha, ke ʻofa ʻae ʻOtua kiate koe.”
29Ἀναβλέψας δὲ τοῖς ὀφθαλμοῖς αὐτοῦ Ἰωσὴφ, εἶδε Βενιαμὶν τὸν ἀδελφὸν αὐτοῦ τὸν ὁμομήτριον· καὶ εἶπεν, οὗτος ὁ ἀδελφὸς ὑμῶν ὁ νεώτερος, ὃν εἴπατε πρός με ἀγαγεῖν; καὶ εἶπεν, ὁ Θεὸς ἐλεήσαι σε, τέκνον.
30Pea fakatoʻotoʻo ʻe Siosefa, he naʻe ngaue lahi hono fatu ki hono tehina: pea naʻa ne kumi ha potu ke tangi ai; pea hū ia ki hono loki, pea tangi ai.
30Ἐταράχθη δὲ Ἰωσήφ· συνεστρέφετο γὰρ τὰ ἔγκατα αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ τῷ ἀδελφῷ αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐζήτει κλαῦσαι· εἰσελθὼν δὲ εἰς τὸ ταμεῖον, ἔκλαυσεν ἐκεῖ.
31Pea naʻa ne kaukau hono mata, pea ʻalu kituʻa, pea ne fakamaʻumaʻu ʻe ia ia, pea ne pehē, Ke mou teu mai ʻae kai.
31Καὶ νιψάμενος τὸ πρόσωπον, ἐξελθὼν ἐνεκρατεύσατο· καὶ εἶπε, παράθετε ἄρτους.
32Pea naʻa nau teuteu maʻana tokotaha pe, pea teu kehe maʻanautolu, pea ai kehe ki he kakai ʻIsipite naʻe kai mo kinautolu; koeʻuhi naʻe ʻikai kai ʻae kakai ʻIsipite ʻo fakataha mo e kakai Hepelū; he ko e meʻa ia naʻe fakaliliʻa ai ʻae kakai ʻIsipite.
32Καὶ παρέθηκαν αὐτῷ μόνῳ, καὶ αὐτοῖς καθʼ ἑαυτούς, καὶ τοῖς Αἰγυπτίοις τοῖς συνδειπνοῦσι μετʼ αὐτοῦ καθʼ ἑαυτούς· οὐ γὰρ ἐδύναντο οἱ Αἰγύπτιοι συνεσθίειν μετὰ τῶν Ἐβραίων ἄρτους· βδέλυγμα γάρ ἐστι τοῖς Αἰγυπτίοις.
33Pea naʻe fakanofo ʻakinautolu ʻi hono ʻao, ko e ʻuluaki ʻo fakatatau ki hono fanauʻi, mo e kimui ʻo fakatatau ki heʻene siʻi; pea naʻe feʻofaʻaki pe ʻae kau tangata.
33Ἐκάθισαν δὲ ἐναντίον αὐτοῦ, ὁ πρωτότοκος κατὰ τὰ πρεσβεῖα αὐτοῦ, καὶ ὁ νεώτερος κατὰ τὴν νεότητα αὐτοῦ· ἐξίσταντο δὲ οἱ ἄνθρωποι ἕκαστος πρὸς τὸν ἀδελφὸν αὐτοῦ.
34Pea naʻe toʻo ʻo ange ʻenau meʻakai mei hono ʻao: ka ko e meʻa ʻa Penisimani, naʻe tuʻo nima hono lahi hake ʻi heʻenau meʻa. Pea naʻa nau inu mo nau fiefia mo ia.
34Ἦραν δὲ μερίδα παρʼ αὐτοῦ πρὸς ἑαυτούς· ἐμεγαλύνθη δὲ ἡ μερὶς Βενιαμεὶν παρὰ τὰς μερίδας πάντων πενταπλασίως πρὸς τὰς ἐκείνων· ἔπιον δὲ καὶ ἐμεθύσθησαν μετʼ αὐτοῦ.
