2 Anka wele ekopo diande, ekopo dia kiamo kia arja mu mufuko wa mukinga ku boso pamune na makuta a ntete yaye.” Biabia aye nkukita nka bibaadi Yosefe mumulungule.
3 Ku namashika, patakubaadi kutooka, bakuabo na Yosefe babayile na mpunda yabo.
4 Tababaadi babande kuenda kula na kibundi, pabaadi Yosefe mulungule muntu baadi atala mifubo ya mu nshibo muaye’shi: “Ebuee! Londa bano bantu! Puebapete, webalungule’shi, ‘Buakinyi nubalusha bubi ku buwa?
5 Buakinyi nubaata ekopo aditomenaa nfumuami na di’afubishaa bua kuuka mianda ayikitshika mu mafuku aafiki? Kintu kianubakitshi ki bubi.’”
6 Biabia aye nkuibabanga na nkuibalungula ano mayi.
7 Anka abo nkumulungula’shi: “Buakinyi nfumuami bakula muanda wi bino? Bafubi bobe ta mbalombene kukita kintu su nkimune ki bino.
8 Aku namu, makuta atupetele mu mifuko yetu, tuibakatukie nao mu nsenga ya Kanaana, tuakualuisha anka. Biabia, mbikunyi biatudi balombene kuiba arja sunga ôlo mu nshibo ya nfumobe?
9 Su umune a ku bafubi bobe basanganyibua nadio, afue, na atue abashala tufikie ba mpika ba nfumuami.”
10 Aye nkuakula’shi: “Bikitshikie nka bu bianubakula; Yawa asanganyibua nadio, afikie mpika ande, anka anue abashala t’anuikala na muanda.”
11 Biabia oso a kuabadi nkuisha bukidibukidi mufuko waye paashi na eufungula.
12 Aye nkukimbuula kalolo, nkubanga na mukulu, na nkufudiisha na mukinga ku boso. Nfudiilo a bioso, ekopo nkusanganyibua mu mufuko wa Benyamine.
13 Nyi abo nkusana bilamba biabo, na oso a kuabadi nkualusha bushito buaye pa mpunda aaye na nkualukiila mu kibundi.
14 Pabaadi Yunda na bakuabo batuele mu nshibo ya Yosefe, baadi ki’nka muanka; na abo nkuiyela paashi kumpala kuaye.
15 Yosefe nkuibalungula’shi: “Buakinyi nubakitshi bino? T’anuuku’shi muntu bu’mi, naukaa mianda ayikitshika mu mafuku aafiki?”
16 Yunda nkualula’shi: “Nkinyi kiatudia kulungula nfumuami? Tui kuakula kinyi? Tui kulesha’shi tui bantu balulame naminyi? Efile Mukulu a binyibinyi batuusha patooka kilubilo kia bafubi bobe. Binobino, tui ba mpika bobe nfumuami, atue boso na yawa ababakuata n’ekopo!”
17 Anka aye nkuakula’shi: “Tankukita biabia nya! Yawa muntu ababakuata n’ekopo nyi ekala mpika ande. Anue boso abashala ndayi kui nshenu mu butaale.”
18 Yunda nkuifubuila kui Yosefe na nkuakula’shi: “Nakusendeela nfumuami, kumiina namu mpika oobe akule eyi ku matui kua nfumuami, na tokuatshilanga mpika oobe nsungu, muanda wenka bu Faraone.
19 Nfumuami ekeele muipushe ba mpika baye’shi: ‘Nui na nshenu sunga mukuenu mulume?’
20 Biabia atue nkulungula nfumuami’shi: ‘Tuina nshetu taadi mununu na muana aadi mutande ku bununu buaye, mukinga ku boso. Anka mukuabo mmupue kufua, biabia aye nyi mushale bupenka munda mua nyinanye, na nshaye mmumufule.’
21 Akupu obe nkulungula ba mpika bobe’shi: ‘Fikayi naye bua’shi mmumone.’
22 Anka atue nkulungula nfumuami’shi: ‘Nsongualume tebiakuleka nshaye. Su amuleka, nshaye afu binyibinyi.’
23 Obe nkulungula ba mpika bobe’shi: ‘Su mukuenu mukinga ku boso ta mufikie nenu, tanui bia kumona dingi mpala yande.’
24 “Biabia atue nkuenda kui nshetu mpika oobe, na atue nkumulungula mayi a nfumuami.
25 Kunyima, nshetu nkuakula’shi: ‘Alukiilayi na nuketudile ndambo ya bidibua.’
26 Anka atue nkuakula’shi: ‘Tatui bia kuenda nya. Su muin’etu e netu, atuende muanda tatui bia kumona mpala ya yawa muntu kuatushi na muin’etu mukinga.’
27 Biabia nshetu mpika oobe, nkuitulungula’shi, ‘Anuuku kalolo’shi mukashi ande mmuntadile penda bana babidi.
28 Anka ami nkushimisha muana umune, na ami nkuakula’shi: “Bekuikala bamusasule binyibinyi kui nyema a mu kisuku!” na ntshi mumumone mpa na binobino.
29 Su nuakatusha dingi uno ku meso kuande, na masaku a lufu amufikila, binyibinyi anuyisha nfuidi yande mu Mashama* na kinyongua.’
30 “Bu biadi mufule nsongualume kukila muwa* waye, su tualukiila bisumanga kushi nsongualume,
31 mususa umune e kufua kuash’amono nsongualume paapa, na ba mpika bobe bekuyisha nfuidi ya nshabo mpika oobe mu Mashama* na kinyongua.
32 Nekeele mushinkamiishe nshami bua nsongualume’shi: ‘Su nakutua kualukiila naye kodi, paapa nakakitshina nshami muluisho bua loso.’
33 Biabia kumiina namu mufubi oobe, ashale bu mpika a nfumuami pa mbalo ya nsongualume, bua’shi nsongualume alukiile na bakuabo.
34 Mbikunyi biandi mulombene kualukiila kui nshami kushi nsongualume? Tankumiina kumona apakiengie nshami!”
