| 1 | Then Joseph came and told Pharaoh, and said, My father and my brethren, and their flocks, and their herds, and all that they have, are come out of the land of Canaan; and, behold, they are in the land of Goshen. | |
| 2 | And he took some of his brethren, even five men, and presented them unto Pharaoh. | Isaṇṇafran daɣ məqqaran-net ṣəmmos, issəkn'en i Firɣawna. |
| 3 | And Pharaoh said unto his brethren, What is your occupation? And they said unto Pharaoh, Thy servants are shepherds, both we, and also our fathers. | Iṇṇa Firɣawna i məqqaran ən Yusəf: «Ma iṃos əššəɣəl nawan?» Əṇṇan as: «Eklan nak təməḍint əššəɣəl nasan, og̣azan tat du ɣur marwan nasan.» |
| 4 | They said moreover unto Pharaoh, For to sojourn in the land are we come; for thy servants have no pasture for their flocks; for the famine is sore in the land of Canaan: now therefore, we pray thee, let thy servants dwell in the land of Go | Əṇṇan as tolas: «Nakkanay təzrek a du nəga s akal wa fəlas amassaḍon as abas iha akal wa n Kanan, ikn'ay ṃanna iguz. Adi da fəlas eklan nak əgmayan daɣ-ak turagat n ad azzabben aṃadal wa n Gošen.» |
| 5 | And Pharaoh spake unto Joseph, saying, Thy father and thy brethren are come unto thee: | Iṇṇa Firɣawna i Yusəf: «Abba nnak əd məqqaran nak oṣan kay du. |
| 6 | The land of Egypt is before thee; in the best of the land make thy father and brethren to dwell; in the land of Goshen let them dwell: and if thou knowest any men of activity among them, then make them rulers over my cattle. | Akal wa n Maṣar ih'ak əfus zəzzəbbət tan daɣ aganna w' ofan n akal. Əggəzanet aṃadal wa n Gošen. Kud tordeɣ as əhan tan wiyyaḍ ən təfləst əṣṣannen əššəɣəl ən təməḍint wəllen, taga taṇat n aharay nin daɣ fassan nasan. |
| 7 | And Joseph brought in Jacob his father, and set him before Pharaoh: and Jacob blessed Pharaoh. | Iddew du Yusəf əd Yaqub abba nnet, issəkn'ay i Firɣawna, ig'as Yaqub assalam n əzzəbun. |
| 8 | And Pharaoh said unto Jacob, How old art thou? | Iṇṇ'as Firɣawna: «Mənəket elan nak?» |
| 9 | And Jacob said unto Pharaoh, The days of the years of my pilgrimage are an hundred and thirty years: few and evil have the days of the years of my life been, and have not attained unto the days of the years of the life of my fathers in the | Ijjəwwab as Yaqub, iṇṇ'as: «Elan ən təməddurt in ṭemeday n awatay əd karadat təṃərwen a əṃosan. Taɣrəst in šigəzzulat ənaya daɣ-as ark-aṇay, aṃaran wər togda əd ta n marwan in.» |
| 10 | And Jacob blessed Pharaoh, and went out from before Pharaoh. | Iga Yaqub i Firɣawna šiwaṭriwen əmməzzayan. |
| 11 | And Joseph placed his father and his brethren, and gave them a possession in the land of Egypt, in the best of the land, in the land of Rameses, as Pharaoh had commanded. | Issəɣsar Yusəf abba-net əd məqqaran-net, ikf'en edagg ən təməɣsurt iggaz təla nnasan. Edag w' ofan daɣ akal ən Masar ihan aṃadal ən Ramses, əmmək w'as t omar Firɣawna. |
| 12 | And Joseph nourished his father, and his brethren, and all his father's household, with bread, according to their families. | Iṭṭaf Yusəf təməddurt n abba-net əd məqqaran-net d aɣaywan n abba-net s əket ən bararan-net. |
| 13 | And there was no bread in all the land; for the famine was very sore, so that the land of Egypt and all the land of Canaan fainted by reason of the famine. | Abas t illa a itamatšin daɣ akal ket-net fəl a wa iga laz daɣ igi, əṃṃutan kallan win Masar əd wa n Kanan. |
| 14 | And Joseph gathered up all the money that was found in the land of Egypt, and in the land of Canaan, for the corn which they bought: and Joseph brought the money into Pharaoh's house. | Iššedaw du Yusəf azrəf kul wa ihan akal wa n Masar əd wa n Kanan, iṃos inazzan n alkama. Eway tu s ahan ən Firɣawna. |
| 15 | And when money failed in the land of Egypt, and in the land of Canaan, all the Egyptians came unto Joseph, and said, Give us bread: for why should we die in thy presence? for the money faileth. | As iɣrad əzrəf kul wa ihan akal wa n Masar əd wa n Kanan əkkan du Kəl Maṣar ket nasan Yusəf, əṇṇan as: «Əngəm ɣas wər za naṃṃat dat-ək akf'ana a nətša!» |
| 16 | And Joseph said, Give your cattle; and I will give you for your cattle, if money fail. | Iṇṇ'asan Yusəf: «Awəyat i du eharay nnawan azzama abas təlam azrəf, a kawan akfa daɣ adag-net a tətšam.» |
| 17 | And they brought their cattle unto Joseph: and Joseph gave them bread in exchange for horses, and for the flocks, and for the cattle of the herds, and for the asses: and he fed them with bread for all their cattle for that year. | Təzzar ewayan du iherwan nasan kul i Yusəf daɣ awatay wa, ikf'en išətša. A dasan isamaskal išətša əggəsan əd wəlli d ayfəd əd zəgran d əzdan. |
| 18 | When that year was ended, they came unto him the second year, and said unto him, We will not hide it from my lord, how that our money is spent; my lord also hath our herds of cattle; there is not ought left in the sight of my lord, but ou | Okay awatay wa. As ig' awatay wahadan əqqalan t'idu əṇṇan as: «Abas nəfrag ad ak nəɣbər məšš-i as abas nəla azrəf, ihərwan nana aṃaran təɣradam tan təla məšš-i, abas nəla a kawan nəkfa məšš-i ar ilamawan nana əd təwəgas nana. |
| 19 | Wherefore shall we die before thine eyes, both we and our land? buy us and our land for bread, and we and our land will be servants unto Pharaoh: and give us seed, that we may live, and not die, that the land be not desolate. | Ənnar əddəlil nəhallak nakkanay əd təwəgas nana? Zanz'ana an nəggəz təla ən Firɣawna nakkanay əd təwəgas nana, takfaɣ ana a nətša. Akf'ana aṃasa a du nərəg aqqam aṃadal wər iṃṃut. |
| 20 | And Joseph bought all the land of Egypt for Pharaoh; for the Egyptians sold every man his field, because the famine prevailed over them: so the land became Pharaoh's. | Izzənza Yusəf aṃadal kul ən Masar i Firɣawna fəlas aw Masar kul izzinz'as in tawagost-net id laz a tan iḍgazan. Iqqal akal kul in Firɣawna. |
| 21 | And as for the people, he removed them to cities from one end of the borders of Egypt even to the other end thereof. | Əggazan aytedan kul təla ən Firɣawna daɣ Masar kul. |
| 22 | Only the land of the priests bought he not; for the priests had a portion assigned them of Pharaoh, and did eat their portion which Pharaoh gave them: wherefore they sold not their lands. | Iṃədlan win n əlfəqqitan ɣas a wər izzənza fəlas ihakk'en Firɣawna adagar iskatan wa daɣ ətattin, iṃos əlqanun, adi da fəlas din wər əzzənzan iṃədlan win nasan. |
| 23 | Then Joseph said unto the people, Behold, I have bought you this day and your land for Pharaoh: lo, here is seed for you, and ye shall sow the land. | Iṇṇa Yusəf i tamattay: «Əmərədda a kawan əzzənza i Firɣawna kawanay əd ṃədlan nawan wədi aṃasa da təṇbəlam tan. |
| 24 | And it shall come to pass in the increase, that ye shall give the fifth part unto Pharaoh, and four parts shall be your own, for seed of the field, and for your food, and for them of your households, and for food for your little ones. | As təga ɣarat tolayam takfim Firɣawna təzunt tan ṣəmmosat tilem əkkozat təzunen šin d əqqimnen əṃosnen aṃasa ən təwəgas nawan əd sudar nawan kawanay əd bararan nawan d aytedan win əhanen iɣawnatan nawan.» |
| 25 | And they said, Thou hast saved our lives: let us find grace in the sight of my lord, and we will be Pharaoh's servants. | Əṇṇan as: «Taṃattant a daɣ-ana du təraga. Nəgrəwet saɣmar ɣur məšš-i ad nəqqəl eklan ən Firɣawna.» |
| 26 | And Joseph made it a law over the land of Egypt unto this day, that Pharaoh should have the fifth part; except the land of the priests only, which became not Pharaoh's. | Iga Yusəf a wen əlqanun iktaban ən təwəgas n akal ən Masar kul a tt'illan har azalada iga sər-əs əššəɣəl: təzunt ta n ṣəmmosat a igarraw Firɣawna. Iṃədlan win n əlfəqqitan ɣas a wər nəha təla ən Firɣawna. |
| 27 | And Israel dwelt in the land of Egypt, in the country of Goshen; and they had possessions therein, and grew, and multiplied exceedingly. | Izdaɣ Israyil (eṣəm wahadan ən Yaqub) daɣ Masar daɣ edagg ihan aṃadal ən Gošen, əlan tu. Ad ətarawan əkannin əfələyləy. |
| 28 | And Jacob lived in the land of Egypt seventeen years: so the whole age of Jacob was an hundred forty and seven years. | Iga Yaqub ṃaraw elan d əṣṣa iɣsar daɣ Masar əqqalan elan ən təɣrəst-net kul ṭemeday n awatay d əkkozat təṃərwen d əṣṣa. |
| 29 | And the time drew nigh that Israel must die: and he called his son Joseph, and said unto him, If now I have found grace in thy sight, put, I pray thee, thy hand under my thigh, and deal kindly and truly with me; bury me not, I pray thee, | As du təhoz təmaṣtant-net iɣra ddu rur-es Yusəf iṇṇ'as: «kud əgrawa ɣur-ək saɣmar əgmaya daɣ-ak a du taga əfus nak daw taɣma nin tədkəlaɣ i arkawal n as wər i za tammazala daɣ Masar, as təgeɣ adi, a di tassakna tara əd təfləst. |
| 30 | But I will lie with my fathers, and thou shalt carry me out of Egypt, and bury me in their buryingplace. And he said, I will do as thou hast said. | As di aba təkkəssaɣ i daɣ Masar tawəyaɣ i əs zəkwan ən marawan in.» Iṇṇ'as Yusəf: «Ad ak agaɣ arat wa di təṇṇe.» |
| 31 | And he said, Swear unto me. And he sware unto him. And Israel bowed himself upon the bed's head. | Iṇṇ'as Yaqub: «Əhəd i.» Ihad as Yusəf. Təzzar issəjad Yaqub daɣ gərmuz ən teṣṣat-net. |
