Ari hafi gupfa, Yakobo yibuka Data wacu Mushoboravyose i Luzi, maze yemera abahungu babiri ba Yozefu bavukiye muri Egiputa nk'abiwe bwite. Asobeka amaboko ngo ashire umuto, Efurayimu, imbere y'imfura, kandi yanka gukosorwa. Akaranga k'ubuzima bwiwe bwite gasubirwamwo nkana kandi.
48 1Haciye ivyo, Yozefu arabwirwa ngo: “Dore so ararwaye.” Nuko afata abahungu biwe babiri, Manase na Efurayimu. 2Yakobo arabwirwa ngo: “Dore umuhungu wawe Yozefu araje aho uri.” Isirayeli yiremesha amagara, aricara ku buriri. 3Yakobo abwira Yozefu ati: “El Shadayi, ari we Data wa twese Ushoboravyose, yaranyiyeretse i Luzi mu gihugu ca Kanani, arampezagira. 4Yambwiye ati: ‘Nzogutuma uramuka, nkugwize, ngutume uba ishirahamwe ry’amahanga; iki gihugu nzogiha uruvyaro rwawe inyuma yawe ngo kibabere ingabirano itazohera.’ 5None rero, abahungu bawe babiri wavyariye mu Misiri imbere y’uko nza aho uri, ni abanje. Efurayimu na Manase bazoba abanje, nka Rubeni na Simeyoni. 6Ariko abana uzovyara inyuma yabo bazoba abawe; bazokwitirirwa amazina y’abavukanyi babo mu ntoranwa yabo. 7Nayo jewe, igihe nava i Padani, Raheli yapfiriye iruhande yanje mu gihugu ca Kanani, mu nzira, hakiri intambwe ntoyi ngo nshike i Efurata; nahahambiye mu nzira ija i Efurata” (ni ukuvuga i Betelehemu).
8Isirayeli abonye abahungu ba Yozefu, aravuga ati: “Aba ni bande?”
9Yozefu abwira se ati: “Aba ni abahungu banje, Data wa twese yampaye aha.” Aca avuga ati: “Ndakwinginze, undekere nze kubabona, ngire mbahezagire.”
10Amaso ya Isirayeli yari yarateye ikizimizi kubera ubusaza, ntiyashobora kubona neza. Nuko Yozefu arabamwegereza, abasoma akongera arabahobera. 11Isirayeli abwira Yozefu ati: “Sinari niteze kubona mu maso hawe, none Data wa twese yarangabije ndabona n’uruvyaro rwawe.” 12Nuko Yozefu abakura hagati y’amavi ya se, yunama agushiriza mu maso hasi. a a v12 Gushira abana hagati y’amavi cari igikorwa ca kera co kwemeza ko bemejwe kuba abana ku mugaragaro. 13Yozefu abafata bombi, Efurayimu mu kuboko kwiwe kw’iburyo, agana ibumoso bwa Isirayeli, Manase mu kuboko kwiwe kw’ibumoso, agana iburyo bwa Isirayeli, aramwegereza. 14Isirayeli aramburura ukuboko kwiwe kw’iburyo akushira ku mutwe wa Efurayimu, uwo akiri muto, maze ashira ukuboko kwiwe kw’ibumoso ku mutwe wa Manase, ambukiranya amaboko yiwe, kuko Manase ari we mfura. 15Maze ahezagira Yozefu avuga ati: “Data wa twese, uwo ba data Aburahamu na Isaka bagendeye imbere yiwe, Data wa twese uwabaye umwungere wanje ubuzima bwanje bwose gushika uyu musi, b b v15 Yakobo ahamagara Data wa twese ngo ni we mwungere wiwe, ni bwo bwa mbere mu Vyanditswe Data wa twese ahabwa iri zina. Insanganyamatwe y’Umwungere ishika kure gushika kuri Zaburi ya 23, gushika ku Mwungere wa Isirayeli muri Yesaya na Ezekiyeli, kandi ikaronka ukubura kwayo muri Yesu, we yiyita Umwungere Mwiza. 16umumarayika wancunguye ku vyago vyose, hezagira abo bahungu. Izina ryanje ribeho muri bo, n’amazina ya ba data Aburahamu na Isaka; kandi bakure babe ishengero ridahera hagati mu gihugu.” c c v16 Umumarayika acungura Yakobo ni Data wa twese ubwiwe, uwamwiyeretse, akarwana na we, kandi akagendana na we mu buzima bwiwe bwose.
17Yozefu abonye ukuboko kwa se kw’iburyo kuri ku mutwe wa Efurayimu, biramubabaza, afata ukuboko kwa se ngo akukure ku mutwe wa Efurayimu akujane ku mutwe wa Manase. 18Yozefu abwira se ati: “Oya, data, kuko uyu ari we mfura, shira ukuboko kwawe kw’iburyo ku mutwe wiwe.”
19Ariko se arabanka avuga ati: “Ndabizi, mwananje, ndabizi. Na we nyene azoba ishanga, na we nyene azoba mukuru. Yamara umuvukanyi wiwe akiri muto azomuruta, kandi uruvyaro rwiwe ruzoba amahanga menshi.” 20Uwo musi arabahezagira avuga ati: “Isirayeli bazohezagira biciye kuri mwebwe, bavuga bati: ‘Data wa twese nagutume umere nka Efurayimu na nka Manase.’” Nuko ashira Efurayimu imbere ya Manase. 21Isirayeli abwira Yozefu ati: “Dore ndi hafi gupfa, ariko Data wa twese azoba kumwe nawe, akugarure mu gihugu ca ba so. 22Nawe, aho kugira abavukanyi bawe, naraguhaye akagongo kamwe k’umusozi nakuye mu kuboko kw’Abamori n’inkota yanje n’umuheto wanje.” d d v22 Aka “kagongo k’umusozi” gashobora kwerekeza ku karere ka Shekemu, kazoba akarere nyamukuru k’imiryango ya Efurayimu na Manase.
