< Genesis 37 >
1 And Jacob lived in the land where his father sojourned, in the land of Chanaan.
Ia, Yakob se dudꞌui na. Leleꞌ naa, Yakob neu leo baliꞌ sia rae Kanaꞌan, fo maꞌahulu na, aman Isak mamana leleon.
2 And these are the generations of Jacob. And Joseph was seventeen years old, feeding the sheep of his father with his brethren, being young; with the sons of Balla, and with the sons of Zelpha, the wives of his father; and Joseph brought to Israel their father their evil reproach.
Leleꞌ naa, Yakob anan esa mia sao na Rahel, naran Yusuf. Ana too sanahulu hitu ma, no aꞌa nara reu ranea hiek-lombo ra. Aꞌa nara, anaꞌ mia Yakob sao nara, Bilha ma Silpa. Te Yusuf ia, mana nendi-nendiꞌ dedꞌeat fee ama na, soꞌal aꞌa nara.
3 And Jacob loved Joseph more than all his sons, because he was to him the son of old age; and he made for him a coat of many colours.
Bonggi Yusuf te, Yakob lasiꞌ ena. Naa de ana sue Yusuf lenaꞌ ana na laen ra. Lao esa, Yakob soo badꞌu naru meulauꞌ esa, fee Yusuf.
4 And his brethren having seen that his father loved him more than all his sons, hated him, and could not speak anything peaceful to him.
Aꞌa nara rahine ama na sue Yusuf lenaꞌ, de ramanasa e seli. Ara nda nau ola-olaꞌ malolole ro e sa ena.
5 And Joseph dreamt a dream, and reported it to his brethren.
Tetembaꞌ esa ma, Yusuf nalamein. De nafadꞌe meit naa neu aꞌa nara nae, “We! Hei rena dei! Au ulumein ae basa nggita paꞌa are-nggandum sia osi rala. Au are ngga nambariiꞌ ndos. Te hei are mara rambariiꞌ nduleꞌ au are ngga, ma beꞌutee neu are ngga.” Aꞌa nara rena rala ma, ramanasa e.
6 And he said to them, Hear this dream which I have dreamt.
7 I thought you were binding sheaves in the middle of the field, and my sheaf stood up and was erected, and your sheaves turned round, and did obeisance to my sheaf.
8 And his brethren said to him, Shall you indeed reign over us, or shall you indeed be lord over us? And they hated him still more for his dreams and for his words.
Boe ma ara ai Yusuf rae, “Woi! Mbei ma ho mae dadꞌi hai malangga mana parenda ma, do?” Ara ramanasa e seli, huu nafadꞌe meit naa.
9 And he dreamt another dream, and related it to his father, and to his brethren, and said, Behold, I have dreamt another dream: as it were the sun, and the moon, and the eleven stars did me reverence.
Basa naa ma, Yusuf nalamein seluꞌ fai. De ana nafadꞌe aꞌa nara nae, “We! Au ulumein fai. Au ita relo, fulan, ma nduuꞌ sanahulu esa. Basa se beꞌutee malolole neu au.”
10 And his father rebuked him, and said to him, What is this dream which you have dreamt? shall indeed both I and your mother and your brethren come and bow before you to the earth?
Yusuf dui basa meit naa neu aman no aꞌa nara ma, aman ai e nae, “Meit saa ka naa! Ho duꞌa mae au, o inam, ma aꞌa mara ima idꞌu ei ma, do? Ho seli, ma!”
11 And his brethren envied him; but his father observed the saying.
De Yusuf aꞌa nara rambedꞌaꞌ ralaꞌ ro e. Te aman dudꞌuꞌa meit naa nakandooꞌ a.
12 And his brethren went to feed the sheep of their father to Sychem.
Faiꞌ esa ma, Yusuf aꞌa nara rendi ama na hiek-lombo nara losa deka no kambo Sikem.
13 And Israel said to Joseph, Do not your brethren feed their flock in Sychem? Come, I will send you to them; and he said to him, Behold, I [am here].
Nda dooꞌ sa ma, ama na nae, “Yusuf e! Aꞌa mara ranea hiek-lombo deka no Sikem. De muote fo muu seꞌu se dei.” Yusuf nataa nae, “Malole amaꞌ.”
14 And Israel said to him, Go and see if your brethren and the sheep are well, and bring me word; and he sent him out of the valley of Chebron, and he came to Sychem.
Boe ma ama na nae, “Muu dei, fo seꞌu aꞌa mara ro hiek-lombo nggara. Ara ona bee naa, baliꞌ mufadꞌe au.” Boe ma, Yusuf lao hela rae Hebron moo na, de nakandoo Sikem neu.
15 And a man found him wandering in the field; and the man asked him, saying, What seek you?
Losa naa, de sangga se ndule mooꞌ a. Basa ma, nandaa no atahori esa. De atahori naa natane e nae, “Ho sangga saa?’.
16 And he said, I am seeking my brethren; tell me where they feed [their flocks].
Yusuf nataa nae, “Toꞌo. Au sangga aꞌa nggara. Ara mboo hiek-lombo sangga uru deka-deka ia. Toꞌo nita se boe, do?”
17 And the man said to him, They have departed hence, for I heard them saying, Let us go to Dothaim; and Joseph went after his brethren, and found them in Dothaim.
Nafadꞌe nae, “Ara nda sia ia sa. Oi rae reu sia deka-deka kambo Dotan.” Boe ma, Yusuf neu tungga aꞌa nara, losa nita se sia Dotan.
18 And they spied him from a distance before he drew near to them, and they wickedly took counsel to kill him.
Yusuf feꞌe sia dodꞌooꞌ, te ara rita e ena. Boe ma ara maꞌiraꞌ rae tao risa e.
19 And each said to his brother, Behold, that dreamer comes.
Esa nafadꞌe esa nae, “Mete dei. Malangga meit a nema ena!
20 Now then come, let us kill him, and cast him into one of the pits; and we will say, An evil wild beast has devoured him; and we shall see what his dreams will be.
Ata tao tisa e leo, do? Basa fo honda hendiꞌ e nisiꞌ oe mates rala neu. Dei fo tafadꞌe amaꞌ tae banda fui ra raa hendi e. Basa fo ata mete meit nara, taꞌo bee!”
21 And Ruben having heard it, rescued him out of their hands, and said, Let us not kill him.
Rena nala naa ma, aꞌa Ruben na sangga dalaꞌ fo nae fee ne nasodꞌa. De ana ai odꞌi nara nae, “We! Ata afiꞌ tao tisa e!
22 And Ruben said to them, Shed not blood; cast him into one of these pits in the wilderness, but do not lay [your] hands upon him; that he might rescue him out of their hands, and restore him to his father.
Malole lenaꞌ ata tumbuꞌ e nisiꞌ oe mates ia rala. Sia ia mamana maꞌabambiꞌ, de atahori nda rahine sa. Sadꞌi afiꞌ tasaiꞌ raa na.” Ana olaꞌ taꞌo naa, huu ana nae mboꞌi Yusuf, fo denu e baliꞌ.
23 And it came to pass, when Joseph came to his brethren, that they stripped Joseph of his many-coloured coat that was upon him.
Yusuf losa boe ma, aꞌa nara toꞌu rala e, de sidꞌa hendi badꞌu naru meulau na.
24 And they took him and cast him into the pit; and the pit was empty, it had not water.
Basa ma, ara lea dudꞌui e, de timba e oe mates rala neu.
25 And they sat down to eat bread; and having lifted up their eyes they saw, and behold, Ismaelitish travellers came from Galaad, and their camels were heavily loaded with spices, and resin, and myrrh; and they went to bring them to Egypt.
Basa boe ma ara baliꞌ reu raa. Ara feꞌe raa, aiboiꞌ ma, rita nononggoꞌ esa nema. Nononggoꞌ naa, banda onta nara fua bua danggan, onaꞌ hau maꞌameniꞌ, bumbu-bumbu, ma modꞌo mataꞌ-mataꞌ. Tao-tao te nononggoꞌ naa atahori Ismael mia kambo Gilead rae laoꞌ dooꞌ reu sia Masir.
26 And Judas said to his brethren, What profit is it if we kill our brother, and conceal his blood?
Basa ma, Yahuda nafadꞌe odꞌi-aꞌa nara nae, “Weh! Malole lenaꞌ taꞌo ia. Afiꞌ tisa e. Hita hambu saa, boe? Mae ona bee o, nda taꞌafuniꞌ tala raa na sa.
27 Come, let us sell him to these Ismaelites, but let not our hands be upon him, because he is our brother and our flesh; and his brethren listened.
Malole lenaꞌ seo hendiꞌ e neu atahori Ismael ra. Mae tao taꞌo bee mbali e o, eni, hita odꞌi bꞌonggi na. De afiꞌ taꞌahinaꞌ e!” Boe ma, basa se tungga oꞌola na.
28 And the men, the merchants of Madian, went by, and they drew and lifted Joseph out of the pit, and sold Joseph to the Ismaelites for twenty pieces of gold; and they brought Joseph down into Egypt.
Basa naa ma, nandaa no atahori mana danggan naa ra tungga naa, Yusuf aꞌa nara lea e mia oe rala. De ara seo e neu atahori Ismael ra, no feli na doi fulaꞌ rua nulu. Basa ma, ara rendi Yusuf Masir neu.
29 And Ruben returned to the pit, and sees not Joseph in the pit; and he tore his garments.
Ara seo Yusuf, te Ruben nda bubꞌuluꞌ sa. Leleꞌ ana baliꞌ nisiꞌ oe mataꞌ a neu, ana nggengger nala seli, huu Yusuf nese ena. De ana sisidꞌa bua na sia ao na, huu ralan susa nala seli.
30 And he returned to his brethren and said, The boy is not; and I, whither am I yet to go?
Boe ma ana baliꞌ nisiꞌ odꞌi nara nae, “Aweee! Anaꞌ a nese ia ena. Ia naa, au ae tao taꞌo bee fai?”
31 And having taken the coat of Joseph, they killed a kid of the goats, and stained the coat with the blood.
Basa ma ara hala hiek esa, de haꞌi Yusuf badꞌu meulau na, de boroꞌ e neu raaꞌ.
32 And they sent the coat of many colours; and they brought it to their father, and said, This have we found; know if it be your son's coat or no. And he recognised it, and said, It is my son's coat, an evil wild beast has devoured him; a wild beast has carried off Joseph.
Haꞌi rala badꞌu fo akaꞌ raaꞌ naa, de rendi fee ama na, ma rafadꞌe rae, “Amaꞌ! Hai here mala badꞌu ia. Mete sobꞌa. Afiꞌ losa odꞌi Yusuf ena na.”
Yakob mete badꞌu a ma, nahine neuꞌ ena. Nataa nae, “Aweee! Memaꞌ ia au ana ngga badꞌu na. Mitaꞌ mae banda fui ra raa e sia bee ena. Aweee! Au ana ngga mate ena!”
34 And Jacob tore his clothes, and put sackcloth on his loins, and mourned for his son many days.
Basa naa ma, Yakob sisidꞌa badꞌu na, de olu karon abas, huu ana susa nala seli. Boe ma ana nggaee nakandondooꞌ a anan doo na seli.
35 And all his sons and his daughters gathered themselves together, and came to comfort him; but he would not be comforted, saying, I will go down to my son mourning to Hades; and his father wept for him. (Sheol )
Basa ana touꞌ ma ana ina nara rema radadale, te nda rala e sa. Ana nae, “Hokoꞌ! Au susa losa mate. Au nda bisa liliiꞌ anaꞌ ia sa.” De Yakob susa nakandooꞌ a, huu nasanedꞌa anan Yusuf mana mateꞌ a. (Sheol )
36 And the Madianites sold Joseph into Egypt; to Petephres, the eunuch of Pharao, captain of the guard.
Leleꞌ Yakob feꞌe susa taꞌo naa, te atahori danggan naa ra losa Masir ena. De reu seo Yusuf neu malangga esa, naran Potifar. Eni, mane Masir a malangga nanea na.
