Genesis 48
1 And it came to pass after these things, that it was reported to Joseph, Behold, thy father is sick. And he took with him his two sons, Manasseh and Ephraim.
Ket napasamak a kalpasan dagitoy a banbanag, nga adda maysa a nangibaga kenni Jose, “Kitaem, masakit ti amam.” Isu nga intugotna dagiti dua nga annakna, a da Manases ken Efraim.
2 And it was reported to Jacob, saying, Behold, thy son Joseph comes to thee. And Israel strengthened himself, and sat upon the bed.
Idi nabagaan ni Jacob, “Kitaem, simmangpet ni Jose a putotmo a mangsarungkar kenka,” Pimmigsa ni Israel ket nagtugaw iti pagiddaan.
3 And Jacob said to Joseph, God Almighty appeared to me at Luz in the land of Canaan, and blessed me,
Kinuna ni Jacob kenni Jose, “Nagparang kaniak ti Dios a Mannakabalin-amin idiay Luz iti daga ti Canaan. Binendisionannak
4 and said to me, Behold, I will make thee fruitful, and multiply thee, and I will make of thee a company of peoples, and will give this land to thy seed after thee for an everlasting possession.
a kinunana kaniak, 'Kitaem, pagbalinenkanto a nabunga, ken paaduenkanto. Pagbalinenkanto a pagtaudan dagiti nasnasion. Itedkonto daytoy a daga kadagiti kaputotam kas agnanayon a sanikuada.’
5 And now thy two sons, who were born to thee in the land of Egypt before I came to thee into Egypt, are mine, Ephraim and Manasseh, even as Reuben and Simeon, shall be mine.
Ket ita, dagiti dua a putotmo, a naiyanak kenka iti daga ti Egipto sakbay nga immayak kenka iti Egipto, ket kukuak. Kukuakto da Efraim ken Manases, a kas kada Ruben ken Simeon a kukuak metlaeng.
6 And thy issue, which thou beget after them, shall be thine, they shall be called after the name of their brothers in their inheritance.
Kukuamto dagiti annak a maadda kenka kalpasanda; mailistadanto kadagiti nagan dagiti kakabsatda iti tawidda.
7 And as for me, when I came from Paddan, Rachel died by me in the land of Canaan on the way, when there was still some distance to come to Ephrath. And I buried her there on the way to Ephrath (the same is Bethlehem).
Ngem no maipapan kaniak, bayat nga agdaldaliasatak manipud idiay Padan, nagladingitak gapu iti pannakatay ni Raquel iti dalan iti daga ti Canaan, kabayatan nga adayokami pay laeng iti Efrata. Intabonko isuna sadiay iti dalan a mapan ti Efrata (dayta ket Betlehem).”
8 And Israel beheld Joseph's sons, and said, Who are these?
Idi nakita ni Israel dagiti annak ni Jose, kinunana, “Siasino dagitoy?”
9 And Joseph said to his father, They are my sons, whom God has given me here. And he said, Bring them, I pray thee, to me, and I will bless them.
Kinuna ni Jose iti amana, “Putotko ida, inted ida ti Dios kaniak ditoy.” Kinuna ni Israel, “Iyegmo ida kaniak, tapno mabendisionak ida.”
10 Now the eyes of Israel were dim for age, so that he could not see. And he brought them near to him, and he kissed them, and embraced them.
Ita, kumapuyen dagiti mata ni Israel gapu iti kinalakayna, isu a saanen a makakita. Isu nga inyasideg ida ni Jose kenkuana, ket inagkan ken inarakupna ida.
11 And Israel said to Joseph, I had not thought to see thy face, and, lo, God has let me see thy seed also.
Kinuna ni Israel kenni Jose, “Saanko a pulos a ninamnama a makitak manen ti rupam, ngem impalubos pay kaniak ti Dios a makitak dagiti annakmo.”
12 And Joseph brought them out from between his knees, and he bowed himself with his face to the earth.
Impan ida ni Jose iti nagbaetan dagiti tumeng ni Israel, ket kalpasanna nagparintumeng nga indumogna ti rupana iti daga.
13 And Joseph took them both, Ephraim in his right hand toward Israel's left hand, and Manasseh in his left hand toward Israel's right hand, and brought them near to him.
Innala ni Jose dagiti dua, ni Efraim iti makannawanna a makannigid ni Israel, ken ni Manases iti makannigidna a makannawan ni Israel, ket inyasidegna ida kenkuana.
14 And Israel stretched out his right hand, and laid it upon Ephraim's head, who was the younger, and his left hand upon Manasseh's head, guiding his hands deliberately, for Manasseh was the firstborn.
Inggaw-at ni Israel ti kannawan nga imana ken impatayna iti ulo ni Efraim, nga inaudi, ken ti kannigid nga imana iti ulo ni Manases. Pinagkurosna dagiti imana, ta ni Manases ti inauna.
15 And he blessed Joseph, and said, The God before whom my fathers Abraham and Isaac walked, the God who has fed me all my life long to this day,
Binendisionan ni Israel ni Jose, a kunana, “Ti Dios a nagtultulnogan dagiti ammak a ni Abraham ken ni Isaac, ti Dios a nangay-aywan kaniak inggana ita nga aldaw,
16 the agent who has redeemed me from all evil, bless the lads, and let my name be named on them, and the name of my fathers Abraham and Isaac, and let them grow into a multitude in the midst of the earth.
ti anghel a nangsalsalaknib kaniak manipud iti amin a peggad, bendisionanna koma dagitoy nga ubbing. Maipanagan koma ti naganko kadakuada, ken ti nagan dagiti ammak a da Abraham ken Isaac. Umaduda koma iti rabaw ti daga.”
17 And when Joseph saw that his father laid his right hand upon the head of Ephraim, it displeased him. And he held up his father's hand, to remove it from Ephraim's head to Manasseh's head.
Idi nakita ni Jose nga impatay ti amana ti kannawan nga imana iti ulo ni Efraim, saanna a nagustuan daytoy. Innalana ti ima ti amana tapno iyakarna manipud iti ulo ni Efraim ket inturongna iti ulo ni Manases.
18 And Joseph said to his father, Not so, my father, for this is the firstborn, put thy right hand upon his head.
Kinuna ni Jose iti amana, “Saan a kasta, amak; ta daytoy ti inauna. Ipataymo ti kannawan nga imam iti ulona.”
19 And his father refused, and said, I know, my son, I know. He also shall become a people, and he also shall be great. However, his younger brother shall be greater than he, and his seed shall become a multitude of nations.
Nagkedked ti amana a kinunana, “Ammok, anakko, ammok. Agbalinto met isuna nga adu a tattao, ken agbalinto met a natan-ok. Ngem natantan-okto ti inaudi a kabsatna ngem isuna, ken agbalinto nga adu a nasion dagiti kaputotanna.”
20 And he blessed them that day, saying, In thee will Israel bless, saying, God make thee as Ephraim and as Manasseh. And he set Ephraim before Manasseh.
Binendisionan ida ni Israel iti dayta nga aldaw babaen kadagitoy a sasao, “Iwaragawagto dagiti tattao ti Israel dagiti bendision babaen kadagiti naganyo a kunada, “Pagbalinennakayo koma ti Dios a kas kenni Efraim, ken kas kenni Manases'.” Iti kastoy a wagas, pinagbalin ni Israel nga imun-una ni Efraim ngem ni Manases.
21 And Israel said to Joseph, Behold, I die, but God will be with you, and bring you again to the land of your fathers.
Kinuna ni Israel kenni Jose, “Kitaem, dandaniakon matay, ngem addanto ti Dios kenka, ket isublinakanto iti daga dagiti amam.
22 Moreover I have given to thee one portion above thy brothers, which I took out of the hand of the Amorite with my sword and with my bow.
Kenka, kas nangatngato ngem kadagiti kakabsatmo, itedko ti naanduyas a bantay nga innalak manipud kadagiti Amorreo babaen iti kampilan ken pana.”
