Farao Pagya Yosef

37 Farao ne ne mpanimfoɔ no gyee asɛm a Yosef ka kyerɛɛ wɔn no nyinaa too mu.

38 Ɛberɛ a wɔredwennwene onipa ko a ɛsɛ sɛ wɔde saa adwuma kɛseɛ yi hyɛ ne nsa no ho no, Farao bisaa sɛ, “Hwan koraa na ɔbɛtumi ayɛ adwuma kɛseɛ a ɛte sɛɛ yi asene Yosef? Ɛfiri sɛ, ɔyɛ onipa bi a, akwan nyinaa mu, ɛda adi pefee sɛ, Onyankopɔn honhom ahyɛ no ma.”

39 Afei, Farao danee nʼani ka kyerɛɛ Yosef sɛ, “Onyankopɔn ayi saa daeɛ yi ne nʼasekyerɛ akyerɛ wo yi, hwan bio na ɔyɛ onyansafoɔ a ɔwɔ nhunumu sene wo wɔ Misraim ɔman yi mu!

41 Enti, Farao ka kyerɛɛ Yosef sɛ, “Ɛfiri ɛnnɛ de rekorɔ, mede Misraim asase nyinaa ahyɛ wo nsa.”

42 Afei, Farao worɔɔ ne nsɔano kawa de hyɛɛ Yosef nsa. Ɔde serekye batakari papa bi hyɛɛ Yosef, de sika ntweaban yan no.

43 Ɔmaa Yosef teaseɛnam tenaa mu sɛ nʼabadiakyire. Baabiara a Yosef bɛkɔ no, na nnipa di nʼanim teateaam sɛ, “monkoto no!” Saa ɛkwan yi so na ɔhene Farao fa de Misraim asase nyinaa hyɛɛ Yosef nsa.
