13 ¶ Pea naʻe ʻikai ha mā ʻi he fonua kotoa; he naʻe lahi ʻae honge, pea naʻe vaivai ʻae fonua kotoa ʻo ʻIsipite, mo Kēnani, koeʻuhi ko e honge. 14 Pea naʻe tānaki ʻe Siosefa ʻae paʻanga kotoa pē naʻe ʻilo ʻi he fonua kotoa pē ko ʻIsipite, mo e fonua ko Kēnani, ko e totongi ʻoe koane naʻa nau fakatau; pea ʻomi ʻe Siosefa ʻae ngaahi paʻanga ki he fale ʻo Felo. 15 Pea kuo ʻosi ʻae ngaahi paʻanga ʻi he fonua ko ʻIsipite, mo e fonua ko Kēnani, pea haʻu ʻae kakai ʻIsipite kotoa pē kia Siosefa ʻo nau pehē, “Tuku mai haʻamau mā; he ko e hā te mau mate ai ʻi ho ʻao? He kuo ʻikai ha paʻanga.” 16 Pea pehēange ʻe Siosefa, “Tuku mai hoʻomou fanga manu: pea te u ʻatu ʻae mā koeʻuhi ko hoʻomou fanga manu, ʻo kapau kuo ʻosi ʻae paʻanga.” 17 Pea naʻa nau ʻomi ʻenau fanga manu kia Siosefa; pea ʻatu ʻe Siosefa kiate kinautolu ʻae mā, ko e fetongi ʻo ʻenau fanga hoosi mo e fanga sipi, mo ʻenau fanga manu lalahi mo e fanga ʻasi; pea ne fafanga ʻakinautolu ʻi he taʻu ko ia, koeʻuhi ko ʻenau fanga manu. 18 Pea ʻi he ʻosi ʻae taʻu ko ia, pea nau toe haʻu kia Siosefa ʻi hono ua ʻoe taʻu, ʻo nau pehē kiate ia, “E ʻikai te mau fakafufū mei homauʻeiki, kuo ʻosi ʻemau paʻanga; pea kuo maʻu foki ʻe homauʻeiki ʻemau fanga manu: ʻoku ʻikai toe ha meʻa ʻi he ʻao ʻo homauʻeiki, ka ko homau sino pe mo homau ngaahi fonua. 19 Ko e hā te mau mate ai ʻi ho ʻao, ʻakimautolu mo homau fonua? Ke ke fakatau ʻakimautolu mo homau fonua ʻaki ʻae mā, pea te mau hoko, mo homau fonua, ko e kau tamaioʻeiki kia Felo; pea tuku kiate kimautolu ʻae tenga, koeʻuhi ke mau moʻui, kae ʻikai mate, pea ke ʻoua naʻa lala ʻae fonua.” 20 Pea naʻe fakatau ʻe Siosefa ʻae fonua kotoa pē ʻa ʻIsipite, kia Felo; he naʻe taki taha fakatau ʻe he kakai ʻIsipite ʻa ʻene ngoue; he koeʻuhi naʻe fakavaivaiʻi ʻakinautolu ʻe he honge; pea naʻe maʻu ʻe Felo ʻae fonua kotoa pē. 21 Pea koeʻuhi ko e kakai, naʻa ne tuku ʻakinautolu ki he ngaahi kolo mei he ngataʻanga ʻe taha ʻo ʻIsipite ʻo aʻu ki hono ngataʻanga ʻe taha. 22 Ka ko e fonua ʻoe kau taulaʻeiki naʻe ʻikai te ne fakatau; he naʻe ʻatu ʻae ʻinasi ki he kau taulaʻeiki meia Felo, pea naʻa nau kai ʻaia naʻe foaki ʻe Felo kiate kinautolu; ko ia naʻe ʻikai ai tenau fakatau honau fonua. 23 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Siosefa ki he kakai, “Vakai, kuo u fakatau ʻakimoutolu he ʻaho ni, mo homou fonua, maʻa Felo: vakai mai, ko e tenga eni kiate kimoutolu, pea te mou tūtuuʻi ʻaki ʻae fonua. 24 Pea ʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi hono tupu te mou ʻomi hono vahe nima kia Felo, ka ko e vahe ʻe fā ʻe ʻiate kimoutolu ia, ko e tenga ki hoʻomou ngoue, mo e meʻakai kiate kimoutolu, mo kinautolu ʻi homou kau nofoʻanga, mo e meʻakai ki hoʻomou fānau.” 25 Pea naʻa nau pehē, “Kuo fakahaofi ʻemau moʻui; ʻofa ke mau ʻilo ʻae ʻofa ʻi he ʻao ʻo homauʻeiki, pea mau nofo ko e kau tamaioʻeiki kia Felo. 26 Pea naʻe fokotuʻu ia ʻe Siosefa ko e fono ki he fonua kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsipite ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ni, koeʻuhi ke maʻu ʻe Felo hono vahe nima; ka naʻe ʻikai pehē ki he fonua ʻoe kau taulaʻeiki ʻaia naʻe ʻikai maʻu ʻe Felo.”
27 ¶ Pea naʻe nofo ʻa ʻIsileli ʻi ʻIsipite, ʻi he fonua ko Koseni; pea naʻa nau maʻu ʻae ngaahi fonua, pea naʻa nau tupu ʻo tokolahi ʻaupito. 28 Pea naʻe moʻui ʻa Sēkope ʻi he fonua ko ʻIsipite ʻi he taʻu ʻe hongofulu ma fitu; pea ko e taʻu kotoa pē ʻo Sēkope, ko e taʻu ʻe teau mo e taʻu ʻe fāngofulu ma fitu. 29 Pea naʻe ofi ʻae ʻaho ke pekia ai ʻa ʻIsileli; pea ui ia ke haʻu hono foha ko Siosefa, ʻo ne pehē kiate ia, “Ko eni, kapau kuo u maʻu ʻae ʻofa ʻi ho ʻao, pea ke ʻai ho nima ʻi hoku lalo tenga, mo ke fai angalelei mo moʻoni kiate au; ʻoku ou kole kiate koe, ʻoua naʻa ke tanu au ʻi ʻIsipite. 30 Ka te u tokoto au mo ʻeku ngaahi tamai, pea te ke fata au mei ʻIsipite, ʻo tanu au ʻi honau tanuʻanga.” Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “Te u fai ʻo hangē ko hoʻo lea.” 31 Pea naʻa ne pehē, “Fuakava mai kiate au.” Pea ne fuakava kiate ia. Pea naʻe punou ʻa ʻIsileli ki he ʻuluʻi mohenga.
