48 Mmalelani Jozé ohaddeliwa: “Babinyu onottabwavi windeya guru.” N’eji, iyene odhowa omoona vina ohattukula anaye eli Manasé na Efraim. 2 Jakob ohaddeliwa: “Mwanenyu Jozé ohidha wuwonani.” Venevo Izrayel ovilibihedha ogilati vakamani vaye. 3 Jakob ohiloga na Jozé:
“Mulugu wowodha-wodha oddittanyuwela o Luz mwilaboni y’o Kaná vina ohiddiruriha. 4 Iyene oddaddela: ‘Ddinele wuvaha aima vina ddinele ouwinjiviha. Weyo onele okala babi wa malogo menjene vina ddinele ovaha ziza* nawo elabo eji wi ekale yawa namukalakala.’ 5 Ovano, anawo eli àbalile weyo mwilaboni y’o Ejipitu ddihinatti odha okuno baga. Efraim na Manasé anele okala aga dhahene ninga eli Ruben na Simeau. 6 Mbwenyi aima anabaliwe musogorhomwa, anakale awo vina anele wakela mareliho na nzina na abalawa. 7 Ddidhaga o Pada-Aran, Rakeli okwile mmadani mwaga mwilaboni y’o Kaná vakuvi na o Eufrate. Ddimwinteri wenewo, dila endhowa o Eufrate, kuloga o Belemi.”
8 Venevo, Izrayel ohawona ana a Jozé vina ohivuza: “Aba bani?” 9 Jozé omwakula babe: “Ba anaga addivahile Mulugu okuno.” Venevo iyene ohiloga: “Ddinoukumbirha kàdhena okuno ddàrurihe.” 10 Mento a Izrayel ahiyela sabwa ya idadi yaye vina iyene kawodha wona deretu. N’eji Jozé ohadhowana vali babe, babeya ohavaha beju vina ohakubatta. 11 Izrayel ohiloga na Jozé: “Txipo kaddobuwela wi ddigahiwona kove yawo, mbwenyi Mulugu oddittiya vina wona ziza nawo.” 12 Jozé ohasusiha anaye osogorho* wa babe Izrayel, okokora vina omwirela laba.
13 Jozé ohattukula oheli, Efraim na mono woja wi akale omononi wemara wa Izrayel Manasé na mono wemara wi akale omononi woja wa Izrayel, vina ohadhowana valiye. 14 Masiki Efraim valiye mung’onoya, Izrayel wikile nlada naye noja vamusorho vaye, vina ohika nlada naye nemara vamusorho va Manasé. Okosile ejuwene na ofuna waye, masiki munddimuwaya akalaga Manasé. 15 N’eji, omururiha Jozé alogaga:
“Mulugu webaribari wedda na makolo aga Abrahamu na Izaki,
Mulugu webaribari oddeddihile egumi yaga yotene ofiyedha ddabuno.
16 Anju onddivuna mmakattamihoni mwaga mwetemwene, àrurihe azombwe aba.
Awene aziwihe nzina naga vina nzina na amakolo aga, Abrahamu na Izaki,
Enjivane ofiyedha okala muttitti mwilaboni.”
17 Jozé ohona wi babe wekile nlada naye noja vamusorho va Efraim, Jozé kaziveliwe, nona otagiha ottukula nlada noja na babe vamusorho va Efraim wi amwalihedhe vamusorho va Manasé. 18 Jozé ologa dhahi na babe: “Nne babani, woromaya dduddu. Kekani nlada nenyu noja vamusorho vaye.” 19 Mbwenyi babe wankodda alogaga: “Miyo ddiziwa mwanaga, miyo ddiziwa. Iyene vina onele okala nlogo, vina onele okala munddimuwa. Vano mbalaye mung’onoya onele okala munddimuwa opitta iyene vina ziza* ninadhe mwa Efraim ninele winjivana wi nikale malogo.” 20 Siku nttile odhowavi àrurihaga, alogaga:
“Nlogo na Izrayel niromolege nzina nawo nigaururihaga nilogaga,
‘Mulugu aururihe ninga emururihiliye Efraim na Manasé.’”
N’eji, iyene odhowavi amwikaga Efraim osogorho wa Manasé.
21 Vasogorhova, Izrayel ohiloga na Jozé: “Koona, miyo ddinokwa, mbwenyi Mulugu onokalavi na nyuwo vina onele ouwiyihedhani mwilaboni ya azamani enyu. 22 Miyo ddinele wuvaha epaddi enddimuwa ya elabo opitta abalawo, epemberhilemi mmadani mwa akadda Amor na supadda vina ura waga.”
