1 Ya: igobe da soge amo ea eda da musa: amo ganodini esalu (Ga: ina: ne), amogawi esalu.
Jacob lived in the land where his father was staying, in the land of Canaan.
2 Ya: igobe ea sosogo fi ilia hou dedei da agoane. Yousefe da lalelegele, ode 17 esalu, ayeligi ba: i. E amola yolalali (ilia da Ya: igobe ea gidisedagi uda Biliha amola Siliba elea mano), amo da gilisili Ya: igobe ea sibi amola goudi ouligisu. E da ea olalali ilia wadela: i hou ba: beba: le, ea edama sia: ne iasu olelei.
These were the events concerning Jacob. Joseph, who was a young man seventeen years old, was guarding the flock with his brothers. He was with the sons of Bilhah and with the sons of Zilpah, his father's wives. Joseph brought an unfavorable report about them to their father.
3 Yousefe da Ya: igobe ea da: i hamoi esoga lalelegeiba: le, Ya: igobe ea asigi hou ema da ea asigi hou amo Yousefe yolalali ilima baligisu. E abula ida: iwane hamone, Yousefema i.
Now Israel loved Joseph more than all his sons because he was the son of his old age. He made him a beautiful garment.
4 Yousefe ea yolalali da Ya: igobe ea asigi hou Yousefema da ea asigi ilima baligi amo ba: beba: le, mudasu hamoi. Ilia da Yousefema bagade higasu. Ilia da ema asigiwane sia: mu hamedeiwane ba: i.
His brothers saw that their father loved him more than all his brothers. They hated him and would not speak kindly to him.
5 Eso afaega, Yousefe da simasia ba: i. Amo e da ea yolalalima olelebeba: le, ilia da bu baligili ema mi hanai galu.
Joseph dreamed a dream, and he told his brothers about it. They hated him even more.
6 E da ilima amane sia: i, “Nabima! Na da agoane simasia ba: i.
He said to them, “Please listen to this dream which I dreamed.
7 Ninia huluane da widi sagai amo ganodini widi la: gi dudalebe ba: i. Amalalu, na widi la: gi da wa: legadole moloiwane lelu. Amalalu, dilia widi la: gi da na widi la: gi amoga sisiga: le, begudui.”
Behold, we were tying bundles of grain in the field and behold, my bundle rose and stood upright, and behold, your bundles came around and bowed down to my bundle.”
8 Ea yolalali da ema amane adole ba: i, “Di da ninima hina bagade esalumu dawa: bela: ?” Amaiba: le, e da simasia ba: beba: le amola amoga sia: beba: le, ilia da ema baligili mi hanai galu.
His brothers said to him, “Will you really reign over us? Will you actually rule over us?” They hated him even more for his dreams and for his words.
9 Amalalu, Yousefe da eno simasia ba: i. E da ea yolalali ilima amane sia: i, “Na da eno simasia ba: i. Amo ganodini, na da eso, oubi amola gasumuni gidayale gala, huluane nama begudulalebe ba: i.”
He dreamed another dream and told it to his brothers. He said, “Look, I have dreamed another dream: The sun and the moon and eleven stars bowed down to me.”
10 Amo simasia ba: i e da ea adama olelei. Ea eda da ema gagabole sia: i, “Amo da adi simasia ba: sula: ? Dia ame, dia yolalali amola na da dima misini, beguduma: bela: ?”
He told it to his father just as to his brothers, and his father rebuked him. He said to him, “What is this dream that you have dreamed? Will your mother and I and your brothers actually come to bow down to the ground to you?”
11 Yousefe ea yolalali da ema mudale dawa: i, be ea ada da amo liligi huluane ea asigi dawa: su ganodini dawa: lalu.
His brothers were jealous of him, but his father kept the matter in mind.
12 Eso afaega, Yousefe yolalali da Siegeme sogega ilia eda ea lai gebo fi amo ouligimusa: asi dagoi ba: i.
His brothers went to tend their father's flock in Shechem.
13 Ya: igobe da Yousefema amane sia: i, “Dia yolalali ilia da Siegeme sogega lai gebo gilisisu ouligilala. Di amoga masa!” Yousefe da amane bu adole i, “Na masunu!”
Israel said to Joseph, “Are not your brothers tending the flock in Shechem? Come, and I will send you to them.” Joseph said to him, “I am ready.”
14 Ea ada da ema amane sia: i, “Defea! Masa! Dia yolalali da hahawane esalabala? Sibi gilisisu da hahawanela: ? Amo huluane abodemusa: masa. Amasea, amo sia: ne iasu bu nama iamisa.” Ea eda da Hibalone Fago esalu. E da Yousefe asunasiba: le, Yousefe da asili, Siegeme sogega doaga: i.
He said to him, “Go now, see whether it is well with your brothers and well with the flock, and bring me word.” So Jacob sent him out of the Valley of Hebron, and Joseph went to Shechem.
15 E da amo sogega udigili laloba, dunu afae da e ba: loba amane sia: i, “Di da adi hogosala: ?”
A certain man found Joseph. Behold, Joseph was wandering in a field. The man asked him, “What do you seek?”
16 Yousefe da bu adole i, “Na da nolalali amo ilia lai gebo gilisisu ouligilala, amo hogosa. Di da ili ba: bela: ?
Joseph said, “I am seeking my brothers. Tell me, please, where they are tending the flock.”
17 Amo dunu bu adole i, “Ilia da fisili asi dagoi. Ilia sia: na da nabi, amo ilia da Douda: ne sogega masusa: dawa: i galu.” Amaiba: le, Yousefe da ea yolalali ilima fa: no bobogele, Douda: ne sogega ilima doaga: i.
The man said, “They left this place, for I heard them say, 'Let us go to Dothan.'” Joseph went after his brothers and found them at Dothan.
18 Ilia da Yousefe sedagaga manebe ba: beba: le, e fane legemusa: gilisili sia: dasu.
They saw him from a distance, and before he came near to them, they plotted against him to kill him.
19 Ilia gilisili sia: dasu, amane, “Amo simasia ba: su dunu da manebe goea!
His brothers said to one another, “Look, this dreamer is approaching.
20 Defea! Ninia da medole legele amola ea da: i hodo amo hafoga: i hano uli dogoi amo ganodini ha: digimu. Ninia da gasonasu ohe fi da e medole legei sia: mu. Amasea, ea simasia ba: i liligi da hamedei liligi ba: mu.”
Come now, therefore, let us kill him and cast him into one of the pits. We will say, 'A wild animal has devoured him.' We will see what will become of his dreams.”
21 Liubene da amo sia: nababeba: le, Yousefe gaga: musa: dawa: i galu. E amane sia: i, “Ninia da e hame fane legemu.
Reuben heard it and rescued him from their hand. He said, “Let us not take his life.”
22 Be udigili amo hafoga: i uli dogoi amo ganodini sanasimu. Be ema se mae ima.” E da Yousefe gaga: le, ea edama bu oule masusa: ilegei galu.
Reuben said to them, “Shed no blood. Throw him into this pit that is in the wilderness, but lay no hand upon him”—that he might rescue him out of their hand to bring him back to his father.
23 Yousefe da ea yolalali ilima doaga: loba, ilia da ea nina: hamoi abula sedade amo fadegai.
It came about that when Joseph reached his brothers, they stripped him of his beautiful garment.
24 Amalalu, ilia da Yousefe amo hafoga: i uli dogoi amo ganodini sanasi.
They took him and threw him into the pit. The pit was empty with no water in it.
25 Ilia da ha: i nanoba, Isiama: ile (Midia: ne) fi dunu amo Gilia: de soge fisili Idibidi amoga doaga: musa: logoga ahoanebe ba: i. Ilia ga: mele da hedama: ne fodole nasu amola gamali agui ahoanebe ba: i.
They sat down to eat bread. They lifted up their eyes and looked, and, behold, a caravan of Ishmaelites was coming from Gilead, with their camels bearing spices and balm and myrrh. They were traveling to carry them down to Egypt.
26 Yuda da ea eya ilima amane sia: i, “Ninia eya amo medole legele amola amo hou dedebomu da ninima fidisu liligi hame.
Judah said to his brothers, “What profit is it if we kill our brother and cover up his blood?
27 Ninia da Yousefe amo Isiama: ile dunu ilima bidi lamu da defea. Amane hamosea, ninia da ema se hame imunu. E da ninia eya ninia hu amola maga: me afae hamoi.” Amane dawa: lalu, ea eya ilia da gilisili defea dawa: i.
Come, and let us sell him to the Ishmaelites and not lay our hands upon him. For he is our brother, our flesh.” His brothers listened to him.
28 Amalalu, Midia: ne bidi lasu dunu da doaga: loba, Yousefe yolalali da Yousefe amo uli dogoiga fadegale, silifa 20 amoga Yousefe Isiama: ile dunu ilima bidi lai. Amalalu, Isiama: ile dunu da Yousefe Idibidi sogega afugili asi.
The Midianite merchants passed by. His brothers drew Joseph up and lifted him up out of the pit. They sold Joseph to the Ishmaelites for twenty pieces of silver. The Ishmaelites carried Joseph into Egypt.
29 Liubene da uli dogoiga bu misini, Yousefe da amo ganodini hame esalu ba: beba: le, bagadewane da: i dione, ea abula gadelai.
Reuben returned to the pit, and, behold, Joseph was not in the pit. He tore his clothes.
30 E da yolalali ilima bu misini amane sia: i, “Goi da uli dogoiga hame. Na da adi hamoma: bela: ?”
He returned to his brothers and said, “The boy is not there! And I, where can I go?”
31 Amalalu, ilia da goudi medole legele, Yousefe ea abula goudi ea maga: me amo ganodini gela sa: i.
They slaughtered a goat and then took Joseph's garment and dipped it into the blood.
32 Ilia da amo abula ilia adama gaguli asili, amane sia: i, “Ninia da amo ba: i dagoi. Amo da dia gofe ea abulala: ?”
Then they brought it to their father and said, “We found this. Please see whether it is your son's clothing or not.”
33 Ya: igobe da amo abula dawa: i galu. E amane sia: i, “Amo da Yousefe ea: Gasonasu ohe fi da nagofe Yousefe medole legele ea da: i dadegale fasi dagoi.”
Jacob recognized it and said, “It is my son's clothing. A wild animal has devoured him. Joseph has certainly been torn to pieces.”
34 Ya: igobe da se bagade nababeba: le, ea abula gadelale, eboboi abula ea da: i amoga sali. E da ea manoma asigiba: le, eso bagohame digini lalalusu.
Jacob tore his garments and put sackcloth upon his loins. He mourned for his son many days.
35 Egefelali amola idiwi huluane da ema ea dogo denesima: ne doaga: i, be e da dogo denesimu amola olofomu hamedei ba: i. E amane sia: i, “Na da mae yolesili, da: i dione amola dinana bogomu.” Amaiba: le, ea da: i dioi e da mae yolesili da: i diolalu. (Sheol h7585)
All his sons and daughters rose up to comfort him, but he refused to be comforted. He said, “Indeed I will go down to Sheol mourning for my son.” His father wept for him. (Sheol h7585)
36 Be Idibidi sogega, Midia: ne dunu da Yousefe amo Bodifa (hina bagade dunu ea sosodo aligisu dunu ilima hina dunu) ema bidi lai dagoi.
The Midianites sold him in Egypt to Potiphar, an officer of Pharaoh, the captain of the bodyguard.
