Afei, Yosef too ne ho hwee nʼagya so suiɛ, fee nʼano. Ɛno akyiri no, Yosef maa nʼaduruyɛfoɔ bɛhyɛɛ nʼagya Israel akyenkyennuro, sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a, ɔrensɛe. Enti, aduroyɛfoɔ no hyɛɛ no akyenkyennuro. Wɔde adaduanan na ɛhyɛɛ Israel akyenkyennuro no, ɛfiri sɛ, saa nna dodoɔ no na ɛsɛ sɛ wɔde hyɛ no aduro no. Misraimfoɔ suu no nnafua aduɔson.

Farao penee akwansra no so, kaa sɛ, “Kɔ na kɔsie wʼagya, sɛdeɛ ɔmaa wo kaa no ntam no.”
Ɛno enti, Yosef kɔ kɔsiee nʼagya. Farao asomfoɔ nyinaa ne ne mpanimfoɔ ne nʼatenankonnwa ne Misraim nnipa titire nyinaa kɔgyaa Yosef ayie. Ɛno akyiri, Yosef fiefoɔ nyinaa a ne nuammarimanom ne nʼagya fiefoɔ ka ho ne no kɔɔ ayie no. Wɔn mma ne wɔn nnwan ne wɔn anantwie nko ara na wɔgyaa wɔn wɔ Gosen asase so hɔ.

10 Wɔduruu Atad a nʼasekyerɛ ne baabi a wɔpo atokoɔ, a ɛwɔ Asubɔnten Yordan atɔeɛ fam no, wɔde nnanson twaa agyaadwoɔ, yɛɛ Yosef agya Israel ayi kɛseɛ wɔ hɔ. 11 Ɛberɛ a Kanaanfoɔ a na wɔte asase no so hunuu sɛdeɛ wɔsi yɛɛ ayie no wɔ Atad no, wɔkaa sɛ, “Yei yɛ ayi kɛseɛ bi a Misraimfoɔ ayɛ.” Ɛno enti, Kanaanfoɔ a wɔte asase no so no too hɔ edin Abel-Misraim, a asekyerɛ ne Misraimfoɔ ayi kɛseɛ yɛ.
12 Enti, Yakob mmammarima no yɛɛ sɛdeɛ wɔn agya kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ wɔnyɛ no pɛpɛɛpɛ. 13 Wɔsoaa no, de no kɔɔ Kanaan asase so, kɔsiee no wɔ ɔboda a ɛwɔ Makpela a ɛbɛn Mamrɛ afuo a na Abraham atɔ afiri Hetini Efron nkyɛn de ayɛ amusieeɛ no mu. 14 Yosef siee nʼagya wieeɛ no, ɔne ne nuanom ne wɔn a wɔkɔgyaa no ayie no nyinaa sane baa Misraim.

18 Yosef nuammarima no bɛtotoo wɔn ho guguu nʼanim, kaa sɛ, “Yɛyɛ wo nkoa.”
19 Nanso, Yosef ka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Monnsuro me! Meyɛ Onyankopɔn a mɛtumi abu mo atɛn, atwe mo aso anaa? 20 Ɛwom sɛ moyɛɛ mo adwene sɛ mobɛyɛ me bɔne deɛ, nanso na Onyankopɔn adwene ne sɛ, ɛbɛdane ade pa, sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a, ɔbɛtumi agye nnipa dodoɔ nkwa, sɛdeɛ ɔreyɛ no ɛnnɛ yi. 21 Enti, monnsuro!
