3 Kɛkɛ nɛ Yuda de lɛ ke: “Nyumu ɔ bɔ wɔ kɔkɔ veveeve ke, ‘Ke nyɛ nyɛmi ɔ piɛɛ we nyɛ he kɛ bɛ ɔ, lɛɛ nyɛ ko ba ye hɛ mi.’
4 Ke o ma ha nɛ wa nyɛminyumu ɔ maa piɛɛ wa he kɛ ya a, lɛɛ wa ma kple kɛ ya konɛ wa ya he niye ní kɛ ba ha mo.
5 Se ke o ha we nɛ e piɛɛ wa he kɛ ya a, lɛɛ wa be kplee kɛ ya, ejakaa nyumu ɔ de wɔ ke, ‘Ke nyɛ nyɛmi ɔ piɛɛ we nyɛ he kɛ bɛ ɔ, lɛɛ nyɛ ko ba na ye hɛ mi hu.’”
6 Israel bi mɛ ke: “Mɛni he je nɛ e sa kaa nyɛɛ ngɔ haomi nɛ ɔ kɛ ba ye nɔ ɔ? Mɛni he je nɛ nyɛ de nyumu ɔ ke nyɛ ngɛ nyɛminyumu kpa a?”

8 Kɛkɛ nɛ Yuda kpa e tsɛ Israel pɛɛ ke: “Moo ngɔ nyumuyo ɔ kɛ wo ye dɛ nɛ wa pue blɔ, bɔ nɛ pee nɛ waa hi wami mi nɛ wa ko gbo—waa kɛ mo kɛ wa bimɛ ɔmɛ.
9 Ma hyɛ nɛ nɔ́ ko ko kɔ e he.* Ke nɔ́ ko kɔ e he ɔ, o kɛ mi nɛ ye. Ke i kpale we lɛ kɛ bɛ, nɛ ma ngɔ lɛ ba ha mo ɔ, lɛɛ i pee yayami kɛ si mo kɛ yaa neneene.
10 Ke pi nɛ wa ngɛ tsle toe ɔ, jinɛ be nɛ ɔ mi ɔ, wa ya nɛ wa ba si enyɔ momo.”
11 Lɔ ɔ he ɔ, a tsɛ Israel de mɛ ke: “Ke jã ji sane ɔ, lɛɛ nyɛɛ pee nɔ́ nɛ ɔ: Nyɛɛ ngɔ zugba a nɔ ní kpakpa amɛ kɛ wo nyɛ kotoku ɔmɛ a mi nɛ nyɛ kɛ ya ha nyumu ɔ kaa nike ní: balsam bɔɔ, hwo bɔɔ, labdanum, tsohi nɛ a jeɔ via toto, pistakio ngmɛ́, kɛ almond.
12 Nyɛ ha nɛ sika nɛ nyɛɛ kɛ maa ya a nɛ pee sika nɛ nyɛɛ kɛ ya kekle ɔ nɛ bɔ he enyɔ; nɛ́ nyɛɛ ngɔ sika nɛ a kpale kɛ wo nyɛ kotoku ɔmɛ a mi ɔ hu kɛ ho. Eko ɔ, e be a hɛ mi.
13 Nyɛɛ ngɔ nyɛ nyɛminyumu ɔ nɛ nyɛɛ ho; nyɛɛ kpale kɛ ho nyumu ɔ ngɔ ya.
14 Mawu Ope ɔ nɛ́ ha nɛ nyumu ɔ nɛ na nyɛ mɔbɔ, nɛ́ e ngmɛɛ nyɛ nyɛminyumu Simeon kɛ Benyamin a he ha nyɛ. Se imi lɛɛ, ke ye bimɛ ɔmɛ ma gbo ɔ, a gbo!”
15 Lɔ ɔ he ɔ, nyumu ɔmɛ ngɔ nike ní ɔ, nɛ a ngɔ sika nɛ bɔ he enyɔ kɛ to a dɛ, nɛ a ngɔ Benyamin hu kɛ piɛɛ a he. Lɔ ɔ se ɔ, a te si nɛ a pue nɔ kɛ ho Egipt ya, nɛ a ya da Yosef hɛ mi ekohu.
16 Benɛ Yosef na kaa Benyamin piɛɛ a he ɔ, amlɔ nɔuu nɛ e de nyumu ɔ nɛ e hyɛɛ e we ɔ nɔ ɔ ke: “Ngɔɔ nyumu ɔmɛ kɛ ho we ɔ mi ya, nɛ o ya gbe lohwehi kɛ pee niye ní, ejakaa nyumu ɔmɛ kɛ mi maa ye ní piani nɛ ɔ.”
17 Amlɔ nɔuu nɛ nyumu ɔ pee kaa bɔ nɛ Yosef de ɔ, nɛ e ngɔ mɛ kɛ ho Yosef we ɔ mi ya.
18 Se benɛ a ngɔ nyumu ɔmɛ kɛ ya Yosef we ɔ mi ɔ, a tsui po, nɛ a bɔni demi ke: “Sika a nɛ a kpale kɛ wo wa kotoku ɔmɛ a mi be ko nɛ be ɔ he je nɛ a ngɔ wɔ kɛ ba hiɛ ɔ nɛ. Jehanɛ lɛɛ, a ma ba nuu wɔ nɛ a maa ngɔ wɔ kɛ pee nyɔguɛhi, nɛ a maa ngɔ wa teji ɔmɛ!”
19 Lɔ ɔ he ɔ, a hɛ mɛ kɛ su nyumu ɔ nɛ e hyɛɛ Yosef we ɔ nɔ ɔ he, nɛ a kɛ lɛ tu munyu ngɛ we ɔ agbo ɔ nya.
20 A de lɛ ke: “Ye nyɔmtsɛ, wa kpa mo pɛɛ! Wa ba hiɛmɛ nɛ ɔ hyɛ, nɛ wa ba he niye ní.
21 Se benɛ wa ya su he nɛ wa to si ngɛ ɔ nɛ wa bɔni wa kotoku ɔmɛ a nya pɛnemi ɔ, wa ti nɔ fɛɛ nɔ na e sika a ngɛ e kotoku ɔ nya, wa sika a nya pɛpɛɛpɛ. Enɛ ɔ he ɔ, wa suɔ kaa wɔ nitsɛmɛ wa maa kpale se.
22 Wa ngɔ sika fuu kɛ ba konɛ wa kɛ ba he niye ní. Wa li nɔ nɛ ngɔ wa sika amɛ kɛ wo wa kotoku ɔmɛ a mi.”
23 Kɛkɛ nɛ nyumu ɔ de ke: “Nyɛ ko hao. Nyɛ ko ye gbeye. Nyɛ Mawu ɔ kɛ nyɛ tsɛ ɔ Mawu ɔ ngɔ juetli kɛ wo nyɛ kotoku ɔmɛ a mi. Ye nine su nyɛ sika a nɔ momo.” Lɔ ɔ se ɔ, e je Simeon kpo kɛ ba ha mɛ.
24 Kɛkɛ nɛ nyumu ɔ ngɔ mɛ kɛ ba Yosef we ɔ mi nɛ e ha mɛ nyu nɛ́ a kɛ ma fɔ a nane he, nɛ e ha a teji ɔmɛ niye ní.
25 Nɛ a to nike ní ɔ he blɔ nya konɛ ke Yosef ba piani ɔ nɛ́ a kɛ ha lɛ, ejakaa a nu kaa a maa ye ní ngɛ lejɛ ɔ.
26 Benɛ Yosef ya we ɔ mi ɔ, a ngɔ a nike ní ɔ kɛ ha lɛ, nɛ a kplã si ha lɛ nɛ a ngɔ a hɛ mi kɛ bu si.
27 Enɛ ɔ se ɔ, e bi mɛ bɔ nɛ a he mi ngɛ ha, nɛ e de ke: “Kɛ nyɛ tsɛ nɔmoyo ɔ nɛ nyɛ tu e he munyu ɔ ngɛ kɛɛ? Anɛ loloolo ɔ, e ngɛ wami mi lo?”
28 Nɛ a de lɛ ke: “Wa tsɛ ɔ, nɛ ji o sɔmɔlɔ ɔ ngɛ saminya. E ngɛ wami mi loloolo.” Kɛkɛ nɛ a kplã si nɛ a ngɔ a hɛ mi kɛ bu si.
29 Benɛ e wo e yi nɔ nɛ e na e nyɛminyumu Benyamin, nɛ ji e nyɛbi ɔ, e de ke: “Anɛ nyɛ nyɛminyumu wayo ɔ nɛ nyɛ tu e he munyu kɛ tsɔɔ mi ɔ ji nɛ ɔ lo?” E de hu ke: “Ye bi, Mawu nɛ jɔɔ mo.”*
30 Kɛkɛ nɛ Yosef he sɔ kɛ je kpo, ejakaa benɛ e na e nyɛminyumu ɔ, e kuɛ si muɔ kpɔ, nɛ e ya hla he ko konɛ e fo ya ngɛ. Lɔ ɔ he ɔ, lɛ pɛ e ya sɛ tsu ko mi nɛ e ya fo ya ngɛ lejɛ ɔ.
31 Lɔ ɔ se ɔ, e fɔ e hɛ mi nɛ e je kpo, nɛ jehanɛ ɔ lɛɛ e nyɛ nɛ e ye e he nɔ, nɛ e de ke: “Nyɛ gba niye ní ɔ.”
32 A gba Yosef pɛ e nɔ́ ha lɛ, nɛ a gba e nyɛminyumu ɔmɛ hu a nɔ́ ha mɛ, nɛ Egipt bi nɛ a kɛ lɛ ngɛ ɔ hu, mɛ ngmingmiingmi a ye a nɔ́ akɛnɛ a be nyɛe nɛ a kɛ Hebri bi ɔmɛ nɛ ye ní ɔ he je, ejakaa jã peemi ji nɔ́ ko nɛ Egipt bi ɔmɛ hiee.
