Genesis 37
1 Now Jacob was living in the land where his father had made a place for himself, in the land of Canaan.
Jákob pak bydlil v zemi putování otce svého, v zemi Kananejské.
2 These are the generations of Jacob: Joseph, a boy seventeen years old, was looking after the flock, together with his brothers, the sons of Bilhah and Zilpah, his father's wives; and Joseph gave their father a bad account of them.
Tito jsou příběhové Jákobovi: Jozef, když byl v sedmnácti letech, pásl s bratřími svými dobytek, (a byl mládeneček), s syny Bály a Zelfy, žen otce svého. A oznamoval Jozef zlou pověst o nich otci svému.
3 Now the love which Israel had for Joseph was greater than his love for all his other children, because he got him when he was an old man: and he had a long coat made for him.
Izrael pak miloval Jozefa nad všecky syny své; nebo v starosti své zplodil jej. A udělal mu sukni proměnných barev.
4 And because his brothers saw that Joseph was dearer to his father than all the others, they were full of hate for him, and would not say a kind word to him.
A když spatřili bratří jeho, že ho miluje otec jejich nad všecky bratří jeho, nenáviděli ho, aniž mohli pokojně k němu promluviti.
5 Now Joseph had a dream, and he gave his brothers an account of it, which made their hate greater than ever.
Měl pak Jozef sen, a vypravoval jej bratřím svým; pročež v větší nenávisti ho měli.
6 And he said to them, Let me give you the story of my dream.
Nebo pravil jim: Slyšte, prosím, sen, kterýž jsem měl.
7 We were in the field, getting the grain stems together, and my grain kept upright, and yours came round and went down on the earth before mine.
Hle, vázali jsme snopy na poli, a aj, povstal snop můj, a stál. Vůkol také stáli snopové vaši, a klaněli se snopu mému.
8 And his brothers said to him, Are you to be our king? will you have authority over us? And because of his dream and his words, their hate for him became greater than ever.
Jemužto odpověděli bratří jeho: Zdaliž kralovati budeš nad námi, aneb pánem naším budeš? Z té příčiny ještě více nenáviděli ho pro sny jeho, a pro slova jeho.
9 Then he had another dream, and gave his brothers an account of it, saying, I have had another dream: the sun and the moon and eleven stars gave honour to me.
Potom ještě měl jiný sen, a vypravoval jej bratřím svým, řka: Hle, opět jsem měl sen, a aj, slunce a měsíc, a jedenácte hvězd klanělo mi se.
10 And he gave word of it to his father and his brothers; but his father protesting said, What sort of a dream is this? am I and your mother and your brothers to go down on our faces to the earth before you?
I vypravoval otci svému a bratřím svým. A domlouval mu otec jeho, a řekl jemu: Jakýž jest to sen, kterýž jsi měl? Zdaliž přijdeme, já a matka tvá i bratří tvoji, abychom se klaněli před tebou až k zemi?
11 And his brothers were full of envy; but his father kept his words in mind.
Tedy záviděli mu bratří jeho; ale otec jeho měl pozor na tu věc.
12 Now his brothers went to keep watch over their father's flock in Shechem.
Odešli pak bratří jeho, aby pásli dobytek otce svého v Sichem.
13 And Israel said to Joseph, Are not your brothers with the flock in Shechem? come, I will send you to them. And he said to him, Here am I.
A řekl Izrael Jozefovi: Zdaliž nepasou bratří tvoji v Sichem: Poď, a pošli tě k nim. Kterýžto odpověděl: Aj, teď jsem.
14 And he said to him, Go now, and see if your brothers are well and how the flock is; then come back and give me word. So he sent him out of the valley of Hebron, and he came to Shechem.
I řekl jemu: Jdi nyní, zvěz, jak se mají bratří tvoji, a co se děje s dobytkem; a zase mi povíš o tom. A tak poslal ho z údolí Hebron, a on přišel do Sichem.
15 And a man saw him wandering in the country, and said to him, What are you looking for?
Našel ho pak muž nějaký, an bloudí po poli. I zeptal se ho muž ten, řka: Èeho hledáš?
16 And he said, I am looking for my brothers; please give me word of where they are keeping their flock.
Odpověděl: Bratří svých hledám; pověz mi, prosím, kde oni pasou?
17 And the man said, They have gone away from here, for they said in my hearing, Let us go to Dothan. So Joseph went after them and came up with them at Dothan.
I řekl muž ten: Odešli odsud; nebo slyšel jsem je, ani praví: Poďme do Dothain. Tedy šel Jozef za bratřími svými, a našel je v Dothain.
18 But they saw him when he was a long way off, and before he came near them they made a secret design against him to put him to death;
Kteřížto, jakž ho uzřeli zdaleka, prvé než k nim došel, ukládali o něm, aby jej zahubili.
19 Saying to one another, See, here comes this dreamer.
Nebo řekli jeden druhému: Ej, mistr snů teď jde.
20 Let us now put him to death and put his body into one of these holes, and we will say, An evil beast has put him to death: then we will see what becomes of his dreams.
Nyní tedy poďte, a zabíme jej, a uvržeme ho do některé čisterny, a díme: Zvěř lítá sežrala jej. I uzříme, nač jemu vyjdou snové jeho.
21 But Reuben, hearing these words, got him out of their hands, saying, Let us not take his life.
A uslyšev to Ruben, aby ho vytrhl z ruky jejich, (nebo řekl: Neodjímejme mu hrdla, )
22 Do not put him to a violent death, but let him be placed in one of the holes; this he said to keep him safe from their hands, with the purpose of taking him back to his father again.
Řekl jim Ruben: Nevylévejte krve. Vrzte jej do této čisterny, kteráž jest na poušti, a nevztahujte ruky na něj. Ale on chtěl vysvoboditi ho z ruky jejich, a pomoci mu, aby se navrátil k otci svému.
23 So when Joseph came to his brothers, they took off his long coat which he had on;
A když přišel Jozef k bratřím svým, strhli s něho sukni jeho, sukni proměnných barev, kterouž měl na sobě.
24 And they took him and put him in the hole: now the hole had no water in it.
A pochopivše, uvrhli jej do čisterny. Èisterna pak ta byla prázdná, v níž nebylo vody.
25 Then seating themselves, they took their meal: and looking up, they saw a travelling band of Ishmaelites, coming from Gilead on their way to Egypt, with spices and perfumes on their camels.
I usadili se, aby jedli chléb. A pozdvihše očí svých, uzřeli, a aj, množství Izmaelitských přicházejících z Galád, kteřížto na velbloudích svých nesli vonné věci a kadidlo a mirru do Egypta.
26 And Judah said to his brothers, What profit is there in putting our brother to death and covering up his blood?
I řekl Juda bratřím svým: Jaký zisk míti budeme, zabijeme-li bratra svého, a zatajíme-li krve jeho?
27 Let us give him to these Ishmaelites for a price, and let us not put violent hands on him, for he is our brother, our flesh. And his brothers gave ear to him.
Poďte, prodejme ho Izmaelitským, a nevztahujme na něj rukou svých, nebo bratr náš, tělo naše jest. I uposlechli ho bratří jeho.
28 And some traders from Midian went by; so pulling Joseph up out of the hole, they gave him to the Ishmaelites for twenty bits of silver, and they took him to Egypt.
Když pak mimo ně jeli muži ti, kupci Madianští, vytáhli a vyvedli Jozefa z té čisterny, a prodali jej Izmaelitským za dvadceti stříbrných. Ti zavedli Jozefa do Egypta.
29 Now when Reuben came back to the hole, Joseph was not there; and giving signs of grief,
A navrátil se Ruben k čisterně, a aj, již nebylo Jozefa v ní. I roztrhl roucha svá.
30 He went back to his brothers, and said, The child is gone; what am I to do?
A navrátiv se k bratřím svým, řekl: Pacholete není, a já kam se mám podíti?
31 Then they took Joseph's coat, and put on it some of the blood from a young goat which they had put to death,
Tedy vzali sukni Jozefovu, a zabivše kozla, smočili sukni tu ve krvi.
32 And they took the coat to their father, and said, We came across this; is it your son's coat or not?
A poslali sukni tu proměnných barev, a dali ji donésti k otci svému, aby řekli: Tuto jsme nalezli; pohleď nyní, jest-li sukně syna tvého, či není?
33 And he saw that it was, and said, It is my son's coat; an evil beast has put him to death; without doubt Joseph has come to a cruel end.
A on poznav ji, řekl: Sukně syna mého jest; zvěř lítá sežrala jej, konečně roztrhán jest Jozef.
34 Then Jacob, giving signs of grief, put on haircloth, and went on weeping for his son day after day.
I roztrhl Jákob roucha svá, a vloživ žíni na bedra svá, zámutek nesl po synu svém za mnoho dní.
35 And all his sons and all his daughters came to give him comfort, but he would not be comforted, saying with weeping, I will go down to the underworld to my son. So great was his father's sorrow for him. (Sheol h7585)
Sešli se pak všickni synové jeho, a všecky dcery jeho, aby ho těšili. Ale on nedal se potěšiti, a řekl: Nýbrž já tak v zámutku sstoupím za synem svým do hrobu. A plakal ho otec jeho. (Sheol h7585)
36 And in Egypt the men of Midian gave him for a price to Potiphar, a captain of high position in Pharaoh's house.
Mezi tím Madianští prodali Jozefa do Egypta Putifarovi, dvořeninu Faraonovu, hejtmanu žoldnéřů.
