2 Ino’i yo mānga ya Yakoba.

Pābwenye Yosefa+ myaka 17, uno nkasampe wādi ulama luombe+ na bana ba Bidiha+ ne bana ba Zidipa,+ bakaji ba shandi. Kadi Yosefa wākebasapwile kudi shabo. 3 Ino Isalela wādi usenswe Yosefa kutabuka bandi bana bonso+ mwanda wādi wandi mwana wa mu bununu, kadi wānenene bamulongele munkukumba wa pa bula.* 4 Banababo pa kumona’mba shabo umusenswe kutabuka banababo bonso, bāanza kumushikwa, kadi kebākidipo besamba nandi biyampe.

5 Mwenda mafuku Yosefa wālota kilotwa wāsapwila’kyo banababo,+ ponkapo bāmona bubinga bukwabo bwa kumushikilwa. 6 Wēbanena’mba: “Ivwanai’po bidi kino kilotwa kyonalota.” 7 Tala twadi tukuta bīta mu bukata bwa budimi penepo kīta kyami kibalanguka kekimene nkū, ebiya bīta byenu bibajokoloka kīta kyami kebivukwila’ko.”+ 8 Banababo bāmunena’mba: “Lelo bine usaka kwibikika bu mulopwe potudi ne kwitubikala?”+ Penepo bāmona bubinga bukwabo bwa kumushikilwa, pa mwanda wa bilotwa byandi ne byawādi unena.

9 Kupwa papo wālota kilotwa kikwabo, wāsapwila’kyo banababo amba: “Nalota kilotwa kikwabo. Pano’ko ke dyuba ne kweji ne ñenyenye 11 byadi bivukwila kondi.”+ 10 Ebiya wākasapwila’mo shandi ne banababo bene, penepo shandi wāmufunina kamunena’mba: “Le kino kilotwa kyobe kishintulula namani? Lelo ami ne inobe ne banabenu tusa bine kwiya kodi ketwivukwila panshi, a?” 11 Penepo banababo bāmukwatyilwa mukao,+ ino shandi wālama binenwa’bya mu ñeni.

12 Ebiya banababo bāenda kukadisha luombe lwa shabo kubwipi na Shekema.+ 13 Mwenda mafuku Isalela wānena Yosefa’mba: “Mwene banabenu balamanga luombe kubwipi na Shekema? Iya nkutume kobadi.” Nandi wātentulula’mba: “Biyampe!” 14 Penepo wāmunena’mba: “Nakwisāshila enda bidi ukatale shi banabenu badi biyampe. Utale ne mwikadile luombe, wiye unombole.” Ponkapo wāmutuma, wātamba ku musanza* wa Hebelona+ wāenda dya ku Shekema. 15 Kupwa muntu umo wāmutana ulumbakana mu ntanda. Muntu’wa wāmwipangula’mba: “I bika byokimba?” 16 Nandi wāmulondolola’mba: “Nkimbanga banabetu. Nakwisāshila, nombole’po bidi, le kwine kobalama luombe i kwepi?” 17 Muntu’wa wāmunena monka’mba: “Kebataluke kuno, mwanda nebevwene banena’mba, ‘Longa tutūkile dya ku Dotani.’” Penepo Yosefa wākalonda banababo, wēbatana ku Dotani.

18 Ebiya bāmumwena dya kulampe, ino aye kafikile kobadi, bāshilula kumukutyila kitumba kya kumwipaya. 19 Penepo kebanena abo bene na bene amba: “Talai! Mulotyi wa bilotwa yewa wiya.+ 20 Shi ke pano iyai tumwipaye tumwele mu kīna kimo, kadi tukanena’mba nyema wa ntanda wa budyani wamubokotanga. Penepa tusa kutala musa kwikadila bilotwa byandi.” 21 Lubeni+ pa kwivwana kino, wātompa kumukūla kobadi. Penepo wānena’mba: “Ketwakipayai būmi bwandi.”*+ 22 Lubeni wēbanena’mba: “Kemwakimwangai mashi.+ Mwelei mu kino kīna mu ntanda mutuputupu, ino kemwakimulongai kibi.”*+ Kyaādi usaka i kumukūla kobadi mwanda wa kumujokeja kudi shandi.

23 Yosefa pa kufika’tu kudi banababo, bāmuvūla munkukumba wandi, munkukumba wa pa bula waādi uvwele,+ 24 ebiya bāmusela bākamwela mu kīna. Mu kine kitatyi’kya kīna kyādi bitupu; kemwādipo mema.

25 Penepo bāshikata kebadi. Abo pa kutulula meso bāmona kibumbo kya bene Ishemele+ batamba ku Ngileade. Bangamedia babo bādi baselele binunka biya, balasome, ne bibale bya bunanga,+ benda ku Edipito. 26 Penepa Yuda wānena banababo amba: “Le i bika byotusa kumwena’mo shi tubaipaya mwanetu ne kufya andi mashi?+ 27 Nanshi iyai tumupotejei+ kudi bene Ishemele, makasa etu keakimutenga. Kunena na bubine i mwanetu, i ngitu yetu.” Penepo bāivwana mwanabo. 28 Kadi bansunga bene Midyana+ pa kupita, bāabula Yosefa mu kīna bāmupoteja kudi bene Ishemele ku bibese 20 bya ndalama.+ Bano bantu bāselela Yosefa mu Edipito.

29 Kupwa Lubeni pa kujokela ku kīna wāmona’mba Yosefa kākidipo mu kīna, ponkapo wāsana bivwalwa byandi. 30 Aye pa kujokela kudi banababo, wātulula diwi kanena’mba: “Mwana wajimina! Penepo ami—ami nsa kulonga’byo namani?”

31 Ebiya bāyata munkukumba wa Yosefa, bātapa mbuji mulume bātubika munkukumba mu mashi. 32 Kupwa papo bātumina shabo munkukumba wa pa bula’wa kebanena’mba: “Kino e kyotwatana. Nakwisāshila, bandaula’kyo bidi utale shi i munkukumba wa obe mwana.”+ 33 Nandi wēubandaula, kupwa wātulula muyoa kadila’mba: “Yō, i munkukumba wa wami mwana! Nyema wa ntanda wa budyani wamubokota! Bine Yosefa wasasamunwa bisesobiseso!” 34 Ponkapo Yakoba wāsana bivwalwa byandi, wāvwala masāka mu kifuka, wadila wandi mwana mafuku mavule. 35 Ebiya bandi bana bonso bana-balume ne bana-bakaji bādi batompa nyeke kumusenga, ino aye wādi nyeke upela kusengibwa, unena’mba: “Nsa kutūkila mu Kibundu*+ koku ndila wami mwana!” Kadi shandi wāendelela kumudila.

36 Ino bene Midyana bāmupoteja mu Edipito kwa Potifela mwingidi wa bulēme wa mu kipango kya Felo+ kadi mukata wa basola balami.+
