Genesis 45
Maori Bible
45 Na kihai i taea e Hohepa te whakamanawanui i te aroaro o te hunga katoa e tu ana i tona taha; a ka karanga ia, Haere katoa atu nga tangata i toku taha. A kihai i tu tetahi tangata i tona taha, i a Hohepa e whakaatu ana i a ia ki ona tuakana.
2 Na he nui tona reo ki te tangi: a ka rongo nga Ihipiana, ka rongo ano hoki te whare o Parao.
3 Na ka mea a Hohepa ki ona tuakana, Ko Hohepa ahau; e ora ana ano ranei toku papa? A kihai ona tuakana i ahei te whakahoki kupu ki a ia; i pororaru hoki ratou i tona aroaro.
4 A ka mea a Hohepa ki ona tuakana, Whakatata mai ra ki ahau. A ka whakatata ratou. A ka mea ia, Ko Hohepa ahau, ko to koutou teina i hokona nei e koutou ki Ihipa.
5 Na, kaua ra e pouri, kaua hoki e mumura o koutou kanohi, mo koutou i hoko i ahau ki konei: no te mea he mea tono mai ahau e te Atua ki mua i a koutou hei whakaora tangata.
6 Ka rua hoki enei tau o te matekai ki te whenua: kei muri ano etahi atu tau e rima, e kore ai e parau, e kore ai e kokoti.
7 Kua tonoa mai nei hoki ahau e te Atua ki mua i a koutou kia whai putanga ai koutou ki te ao, kia ora ai hoki koutou i runga i te whakaoranga nui.
8 Ina, ehara i a koutou nana ahau i tono mai ki konei, engari na te Atua; kua waiho hoki ahau e ia hei matua ki a Parao, hei ariki ano mo tona whare katoa, hei kawana hoki mo te whenua katoa o Ihipa.
9 Hohoro, haere ki runga, ki toku papa, mea atu ki a ia, He penei te kupu a tau tama a Hohepa, Kua meinga ahau e te Atua hei ariki mo Ihipa katoa; haere mai ki ahau, kaua e whakaroa.
10 A me noho koe ki te whenua o Kohena, a ka tata koe ki ahau, koutou ko au tama, ko nga tama hoki a au tama, me au kahui, me au kau, me au mea katoa:
11 A ka atawhai ahau i a koe ki reira; e rima hoki enei tau matekai kei muri nei; kei rawakoretia koutou ko tou whare me au mea katoa.
12 Na, ka kite nei o koutou kanohi, me nga kanohi o toku teina, o Pineamine, ko toku waha tenei te korero nei ki a koutou.
13 A ma koutou e korero ki toku papa toku kororia katoa i Ihipa, me nga mea katoa i kite nei koutou; kia hohoro ano ta koutou kawe mai i toku papa ki konei.
14 Na ka hinga ia ki runga ki te kaki o Pineamine, o tona teina, a ka tangi, ka tangi ano a Pineamine i runga i tona kaki.
15 A ka kihi ia i ona tuakana katoa, ka tangi hoki ki a ratou: a muri iho ka korero ona tuakana ki a ia.
16 Na ka tae te rongo ki te whare o Parao, ka korerotia, Kua tae mai nga tuakana o Hohepa: he mea pai ano tena ki te whakaaro o Parao, o ana tangata hoki.
17 Na ka mea a Parao ki a Hohepa, Korero ki ou tuakana, Ko tenei ta koutou e mea ai; whakawaha a koutou kararehe, a whakatika, haere ki te whenua o Kanaana;
18 Tikina hoki to koutou papa, me nga tangata o o koutou whare, a haere mai ki ahau: a ka hoatu e ahau ki a koutou nga mea papai o te whenua o Ihipa, a ka kai koutou i te momonatanga o te whenua.
19 Na, kua whakahaua nei koe, meatia tenei e koutou; mauria atu etahi kaata ma koutou i te whenua o Ihipa mo a koutou tamariki, mo a koutou wahine, a kawea mai to koutou papa, haere mai hoki.
20 A kaua e whakaaro ki a koutou mea; ma koutou hoki nga mea pai o te whenua katoa o Ihipa.
21 Na ka pera nga tama a Iharaira: a ka homai he kaata e Hohepa ki a ratou, ka pera me ta Parao i ki ai, i homai ano e ia he o mo ratou ki te ara.
22 I homai ano hoki e ia ki a ratou katoa he whakatakirua mo nga kakahu o tetahi, o tetahi; ki a Pineamine ia i homai e ia e toru rau hiriwa, takirima ano hoki nga kakahu.
23 A ko nga mea tenei i homai e ia kia kawea ki tona papa; kotahi tekau nga kaihe e waha ana i nga mea papai o Ihipa, me nga kaihe uha kotahi tekau, ko ta ratou kawenga he witi, he taro, hei kai ma tona papa ki te ara.
24 Na ka tonoa atu e ia ona tuakana, a haere ano ratou: ka mea hoki ia ki a ratou, Kei ngangau koutou ki te ara.
25 Na haere ana ratou i Ihipa ki runga, a ka tae ki te whenua o Kanaana, ki a Hakopa, ki to ratou papa,
26 A ka korero ki a ia, ka mea, E ora ana ano a Hohepa, ko ia hoki te kawana o te whenua katoa o Ihipa. Na ka whakapau te manawa o Hakopa, kihai hoki ia i whakapono ki a ratou.
27 Na ka korerotia e ratou ki a ia nga kupu katoa a Hohepa i korero ai ia ki a ratou: a ka kite ia i nga kaata i tukua mai e Hohepa hei tiki mai mona, na, ka ora ake te wairua o Hakopa, o to ratou papa:
28 A katahi a Iharaira ka mea, Heoi ano; e ora ana ano taku tama, a Hohepa: ka haere ahau kia kite i a ia kei mate ahau.

Joseph Makes Himself Known
45 Then Joseph could no longer control himself(A) before all his attendants, and he cried out, “Have everyone leave my presence!”(B) So there was no one with Joseph when he made himself known to his brothers. 2 And he wept(C) so loudly that the Egyptians heard him, and Pharaoh’s household heard about it.(D)
3 Joseph said to his brothers, “I am Joseph! Is my father still living?”(E) But his brothers were not able to answer him,(F) because they were terrified at his presence.(G)
4 Then Joseph said to his brothers, “Come close to me.”(H) When they had done so, he said, “I am your brother Joseph, the one you sold into Egypt!(I) 5 And now, do not be distressed(J) and do not be angry with yourselves for selling me here,(K) because it was to save lives that God sent me ahead of you.(L) 6 For two years now there has been famine(M) in the land, and for the next five years there will be no plowing and reaping. 7 But God sent me ahead of you to preserve for you a remnant(N) on earth and to save your lives by a great deliverance.[a](O)
8 “So then, it was not you who sent me here, but God.(P) He made me father(Q) to Pharaoh, lord of his entire household and ruler of all Egypt.(R) 9 Now hurry(S) back to my father and say to him, ‘This is what your son Joseph says: God has made me lord of all Egypt. Come down to me; don’t delay.(T) 10 You shall live in the region of Goshen(U) and be near me—you, your children and grandchildren, your flocks and herds, and all you have.(V) 11 I will provide for you there,(W) because five years of famine(X) are still to come. Otherwise you and your household and all who belong to you will become destitute.’(Y)
12 “You can see for yourselves, and so can my brother Benjamin,(Z) that it is really I who am speaking to you.(AA) 13 Tell my father about all the honor accorded me in Egypt(AB) and about everything you have seen. And bring my father down here quickly.(AC)”
14 Then he threw his arms around his brother Benjamin and wept, and Benjamin(AD) embraced him,(AE) weeping. 15 And he kissed(AF) all his brothers and wept over them.(AG) Afterward his brothers talked with him.(AH)
16 When the news reached Pharaoh’s palace that Joseph’s brothers had come,(AI) Pharaoh and all his officials(AJ) were pleased.(AK) 17 Pharaoh said to Joseph, “Tell your brothers, ‘Do this: Load your animals(AL) and return to the land of Canaan,(AM) 18 and bring your father and your families back to me. I will give you the best of the land of Egypt(AN) and you can enjoy the fat of the land.’(AO)
19 “You are also directed to tell them, ‘Do this: Take some carts(AP) from Egypt for your children and your wives, and get your father and come. 20 Never mind about your belongings,(AQ) because the best of all Egypt(AR) will be yours.’”
21 So the sons of Israel did this. Joseph gave them carts,(AS) as Pharaoh had commanded, and he also gave them provisions for their journey.(AT) 22 To each of them he gave new clothing,(AU) but to Benjamin he gave three hundred shekels[b] of silver and five sets of clothes.(AV) 23 And this is what he sent to his father: ten donkeys(AW) loaded with the best things(AX) of Egypt, and ten female donkeys loaded with grain and bread and other provisions for his journey.(AY) 24 Then he sent his brothers away, and as they were leaving he said to them, “Don’t quarrel on the way!”(AZ)
25 So they went up out of Egypt(BA) and came to their father Jacob in the land of Canaan.(BB) 26 They told him, “Joseph is still alive! In fact, he is ruler of all Egypt.”(BC) Jacob was stunned; he did not believe them.(BD) 27 But when they told him everything Joseph had said to them, and when he saw the carts(BE) Joseph had sent to carry him back, the spirit of their father Jacob revived. 28 And Israel said, “I’m convinced!(BF) My son Joseph is still alive. I will go and see him before I die.”(BG)
