Intangiriro
41 Nuko hashize imyaka ibiri yuzuye, Farawo arota+ ahagaze ku Ruzi rwa Nili. 2 Agiye kubona abona inka zirindwi nziza zibyibushye, zizamuka ziva mu ruzi rwa Nili maze zitangira kurisha ubwatsi bwo kuri Nili.+ 3 Abona izindi nka zirindwi mbi cyane kandi zinanutse zizamuka ziva mu ruzi rwa Nili, zikurikiye za zindi zibyibushye, zihagarara iruhande rwazo ku nkombe y’uruzi rwa Nili. 4 Hanyuma izo nka mbi cyane kandi zinanutse zitangira kurya za nka zirindwi nziza zibyibushye. Nuko Farawo aba arakangutse.
5 Ariko yongera gusinzira maze arota ubwa kabiri. Agiye kubona abona amahundo arindwi meza abyibushye amera ku ruti rumwe.+ 6 Nyuma yaho, hamera andi mahundo arindwi ananutse kandi yumishijwe n’umuyaga uturuka iburasirazuba. 7 Nuko ayo mahundo ananutse, amira ya mahundo arindwi abyibushye. Farawo aba arakangutse amenya ko zari inzozi.
8 Mu gitondo Farawo arahangayika cyane. Nuko atuma ku batambyi bakora iby’ubumaji bo muri Egiputa n’abanyabwenge bose, ababwira inzozi yarose. Ariko nta washoboye kuzimusobanurira.
9 Hanyuma umutware w’abatangaga divayi abwira Farawo ati: “Uyu munsi ndavuga ibyaha byanjye. 10 Nyakubahwa Farawo, waraturakariye njye n’umutware w’abatetsi b’imigati+ maze udushyira muri gereza yo mu rugo rw’umutware w’abakurinda. 11 Nyuma yaho twembi twarose inzozi mu ijoro rimwe. Buri wese yarose inzozi ze kandi inzozi za buri wese zari zifite ibisobanuro byazo.+ 12 Icyo gihe twari kumwe n’umusore w’Umuheburayo, akaba yarakoreraga umutware w’abakurinda.+ Nuko tumubwira inzozi zacu+ arazidusobanurira. 13 Kandi byose byagenze nk’uko yabidusobanuriye. Njye wanshubije mu kazi kanjye, ariko umutware w’abatetsi b’imigati wamumanitse ku giti.”+
14 Farawo atuma abantu ngo bavane Yozefu+ muri gereza,+ bamuzane vuba. Nuko Yozefu ariyogoshesha kandi ahindura imyenda maze ajya kwa Farawo. 15 Farawo abwira Yozefu ati: “Narose inzozi ariko nta washoboye kuzinsobanurira. None numvise bavuga ko ushobora kumva inzozi ukazisobanura.”+ 16 Yozefu asubiza Farawo ati: “Njye nta cyo ndi cyo! Imana ni yo iri bumenyeshe Farawo ibyiza.”+
17 Farawo abwira Yozefu ati: “Narose mpagaze ku nkombe y’Uruzi rwa Nili. 18 Nuko ngiye kubona mbona inka zirindwi zibyibushye kandi nziza zizamuka ziva mu Ruzi rwa Nili maze zitangira kurisha ubwatsi bwo kuri Nili.+ 19 Mbona izindi nka zirindwi mbi cyane kandi zinanutse zizamuka ziva mu ruzi rwa Nili zizikurikiye. Yewe, nta zindi nka mbi zimeze nk’izo nigeze mbona mu gihugu cya Egiputa hose. 20 Nuko izo nka mbi zinanutse zitangira kurya za zindi zirindwi zibyibushye. 21 Zirazirya zirazimara ariko nta washoboraga kumenya aho zizishyize, kuko zakomeje kuba mbi nk’uko zari zimeze mbere. Nuko mba ndakangutse.
22 “Nongera kurota maze mbona amahundo arindwi manini kandi meza amera ku ruti rumwe.+ 23 Nyuma yaho, hamera andi mahundo arindwi ananutse kandi yumishijwe n’umuyaga uturuka iburasirazuba. 24 Nuko ayo mahundo ananutse amira ya mahundo arindwi meza. None nabibwiye abatambyi bakora iby’ubumaji,+ ariko nta washoboye kubinsobanurira.”+
25 Yozefu abwira Farawo ati: “Nyakubahwa, inzozi zawe zose zisobanura kimwe. Imana y’ukuri ni yo yakumenyesheje ibyo igiye gukora.+ 26 Inka zirindwi nziza ni imyaka irindwi. Amahundo arindwi meza na yo ni imyaka irindwi kandi izo nzozi zombi zisobanura kimwe. 27 Inka zirindwi zinanutse kandi mbi cyane zaje zikurikiye izo nziza, ni imyaka irindwi. Naho amahundo arindwi mabi yumishijwe n’umuyaga uturuka iburasirazuba, ni inzara izamara imyaka irindwi. 28 Nk’uko nabikubwiye nyakubahwa, Imana y’ukuri ni yo yakweretse ibyo izakora.
29 “Igihugu cya Egiputa cyose kigiye kumara imyaka irindwi cyera cyane. 30 Ariko hazakurikiraho indi myaka irindwi y’inzara. Abantu bazibagirwa ukuntu igihugu cya Egiputa cyeraga. Inzara izaba ari nyinshi mu gihugu.+ 31 Nta wuzamenya ko igihugu kigeze kwera cyane bitewe n’iyo nzara izakurikiraho, kuko izaba ari inzara ikaze cyane. 32 Nyakubahwa, kuba warose izo nzozi inshuro ebyiri zose, bisobanura ko Imana y’ukuri yemeje neza ko ibyo bintu bizabaho kandi ikaba igiye kubisohoza vuba.
33 “None rero nyakubahwa Farawo, ushake umuntu w’umunyabwenge uzi gushishoza maze umushinge igihugu cya Egiputa. 34 Kandi nyakubahwa Farawo, gira icyo ukora ushyireho abagenzuzi mu gihugu kugira ngo muri iyo myaka irindwi igihugu cya Egiputa kizaba cyera cyane, bazajye bakusanya kimwe cya gatanu cy’ibizaba byeze mu gihugu.+ 35 Bazakusanye ibiribwa byose muri iyo myaka myiza igiye kuza, babibike mu mijyi yose kandi babirinde.+ Ibyo biribwa bizaba ari ibya Farawo. 36 Bizagirira akamaro igihugu cya Egiputa mu myaka irindwi inzara izamara muri icyo gihugu. Ibyo bizatuma abantu n’amatungo bidashiraho bitewe n’inzara.”+
37 Nuko icyo gitekerezo gishimisha Farawo n’abagaragu be bose. 38 Farawo abwira abagaragu be ati: “Ese hari undi muntu twabona umeze nk’uyu, ufite umwuka w’Imana?” 39 Hanyuma Farawo abwira Yozefu ati: “Kubera ko Imana yatumye umenya ibyo byose, nta wundi muntu w’umunyabwenge kandi uzi gushishoza umeze nkawe. 40 Wowe ubwawe ngushinze ibyo mu rugo rwanjye, kandi abantu banjye bose bazajya bakumvira nta mpaka.+ Ni njye njyenyine uzakuruta kubera ko ndi umwami.” 41 Farawo arongera abwira Yozefu ati: “Dore ngushinze igihugu cya Egiputa cyose.”+ 42 Nuko Farawo akuramo impeta ye iriho ikimenyetso ayambika Yozefu, amwambika n’imyenda myiza, amwambika n’umukufi wa zahabu mu ijosi. 43 Nanone Farawo amushyira mu rindi gare rye kugira ngo abantu bamuhe icyubahiro barangururira imbere ye bati: “Nimumwunamire!”* Nguko uko yamuhaye igihugu cya Egiputa cyose.
44 Farawo arongera abwira Yozefu ati: “Ndi Farawo, ariko nta muntu uzajya agira icyo akora mu gihugu cya Egiputa hose utabimuhereye uburenganzira.”+ 45 Hanyuma Farawo yita Yozefu Safunati-paneya kandi amushyingira Asinati+ umukobwa wa Potifera, umutambyi wo muri Oni.* Nuko Yozefu atangira kugenzura igihugu cya Egiputa.+ 46 Yozefu yatangiye gukorera Farawo umwami wa Egiputa afite imyaka 30.+
Nuko Yozefu ava imbere ya Farawo maze atangira gutembera igihugu cya Egiputa cyose kugira ngo akirebe neza. 47 Mu gihe cy’imyaka irindwi igihugu kirera cyane. 48 Akomeza kubika ibiribwa byose byeze mu gihugu cya Egiputa muri iyo myaka irindwi, abibika mu mijyi. Ibiribwa byeraga mu mirima ikikije umujyi yabibikaga muri uwo mujyi. 49 Yozefu akomeza kubika ibiribwa, biba byinshi cyane bingana n’umusenyi wo ku nyanja, bagera n’ubwo bareka kubibara kubera ko byari byinshi cyane bitabarika.
50 Mbere y’umwaka inzara yatangiriyemo, Yozefu yari yarabyaye abahungu babiri.+ Yari yarababyaranye na Asinati umukobwa wa Potifera, umutambyi wo muri Oni. 51 Yozefu yita imfura ye Manase,*+ kubera ko yavugaga ati: “Imana yanyibagije ibyago byanjye byose n’abo mu rugo rwa papa bose.” 52 Uwa kabiri amwita Efurayimu,*+ kuko yavugaga ati: “Imana yatumye mbyarira abana mu gihugu nagiriyemo imibabaro.”+
53 Nuko ya myaka irindwi igihugu cya Egiputa cyamaze cyera irarangira+ 54 maze hakurikiraho indi myaka irindwi y’inzara nk’uko Yozefu yari yarabivuze.+ Mu bihugu byose haba inzara ariko mu gihugu cya Egiputa hose hakomeza kuba ibiribwa.+ 55 Amaherezo inzara ikwira mu gihugu cya Egiputa cyose maze abantu binginga Farawo ngo abahe ibyokurya.+ Hanyuma Farawo abwira Abanyegiputa bose ati: “Nimusange Yozefu, ibyo abategeka byose mubikore.”+ 56 Inzara ikwira ku isi hose.+ Yozefu akingura aho yari yarabitse bya biribwa maze atangira kubigurisha Abanyegiputa+ kuko inzara yari nyinshi cyane mu gihugu cya Egiputa. 57 Nanone kandi, abantu bo ku isi hose bazaga muri Egiputa guhaha kwa Yozefu kuko inzara yari nyinshi cyane mu isi yose.+
