Genesis 48
1 And it came to pass after these things, that it was reported to Joseph, Behold, thy father is ill; and, having taken his two sons, Manasse and Ephraim, he came to Jacob.
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 cometh to thee; and Israel having strengthened himself, 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, My God appeared to me in Luza, in the land of Chanaan, 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 increase thee, and multiply thee, and will make of thee multitudes of nations; and I will give this land to thee, and 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 Now then thy two sons, who were born to thee in the land of Egypt, before I came to thee into Egypt, are mine; Ephraim and Manasse, as Ruben and Symeon they 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 the children which thou shalt beget hereafter, shall be in the name of their brethren; they shall be named after their inheritances.
Kukuamto dagiti annak a maadda kenka kalpasanda; mailistadanto kadagiti nagan dagiti kakabsatda iti tawidda.
7 And as for me, when I came out of Mesopotamia of Syria, Rachel, thy mother, died in the land of Chanaan, as I drew night to the horse-course of Chabratha of the land [of Chanaan], so as to come to Ephratha; and I buried her in the road of the course; this 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 when Israel saw the sons of Joseph, he said, Who are these to thee?
Idi nakita ni Israel dagiti annak ni Jose, kinunana, “Siasino dagitoy?”
9 And Joseph said to his father, They are my sons, whom God gave me here; and Jacob said, Bring me them, that I may 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 through age, and 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, Behold, I have not been deprived of [seeing] thy face, and lo! God has showed me 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 they did reverence to him, with their face to the ground.
Impan ida ni Jose iti nagbaetan dagiti tumeng ni Israel, ket kalpasanna nagparintumeng nga indumogna ti rupana iti daga.
13 And Joseph took his two sons, both Ephraim in his right hand, but on the left of Israel, and Manasse on his left hand, but on the right of Israel, 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 But Israel having stretched out his right hand, laid it on the head of Ephraim, and he was the younger; and his left hand on the head of Manasse, [guiding] his hands crosswise.
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 them and said, The God in whose sight my fathers were well pleasing, [even] Abraam and Isaac, the God who continues to feed me from my youth until 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 angel who delivers me from all evils, bless these boys, and my name shall be called upon them, and the name of my fathers, Abraam and Isaac; and let them be increased to a great multitude on 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 Joseph having seen that his father put his right hand on the head of Ephraim—it seemed grievous to him; and Joseph took hold of the hand of his father, to remove it from the head of Ephraim to the head of Manasse.
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, father; for this is the first-born; lay 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 he would not, but said, I know it, son, I know it; he also shall be a people, and he shall be exalted, but 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 in that day, saying, In you shall Israel be blessed, saying, God make thee as Ephraim and Manasse; and he set Ephraim before Manasse.
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; and God shall be with you, and restore you 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 And I give to thee Sicima, a select portion above thy brethren, which I took out of the hand of the Amorites with my sword and bow.
Kenka, kas nangatngato ngem kadagiti kakabsatmo, itedko ti naanduyas a bantay nga innalak manipud kadagiti Amorreo babaen iti kampilan ken pana.”
