Genesis 37
1 Now Jacob lived in the land of Canaan, where his father sojourned.
Jákob pak bydlil v zemi putování otce svého, v zemi Kananejské.
2 And these are his generations. Joseph, when he was sixteen years old, was pasturing the flock with his brothers, when he was still a boy. And he was with the sons of Bilhah and Zilpah, the wives of his father. And he accused his brothers to their father of a most sinful crime.
Tito jsou příběhové Jákobovi: Jozef, když byl v sedmnácti letech, pásl s bratřími svými dobytek, (a byl mládenček), s syny Bály a Zelfy, žen otce svého. A oznamoval Jozef zlou pověst o nich otci svému.
3 Now Israel loved Joseph above all his sons, because he had conceived him in his old age. And he made him a tunic, woven of many colors.
Izrael pak miloval Jozefa nad všecky syny své; nebo v starosti své zplodil jej. A udělal mu sukni proměnných barev.
4 Then his brothers, seeing that he was loved by his father more than all his other sons, hated him, and they were not able to say anything peacefully 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 Then it also happened that he recounted the vision of a dream to his brothers, for which reason a greater hatred began to be nurtured.
Měl pak Jozef sen, a vypravoval jej bratřím svým; pročež v větší nenávisti ho měli.
6 And he said to them, “Listen to my dream that I saw.
Nebo pravil jim: Slyšte, prosím, sen, kterýž jsem měl.
7 I thought we were binding sheaves in the field. And my sheaf seemed to rise up and stand, and your sheaves, standing in a circle, reverenced my sheaf.”
Hle, vázali jsme snopy na poli, a aj, povstal snop můj, a stál. Vůkol také stáli snopové vaši, a klaněli se snopu mému.
8 His brothers responded: “Would you be our king? Or will we be subject to your dominion?” Therefore, this matter of his dreams and words provided kindling to their envy and hatred.
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 Likewise, he saw another dream, which he explained to his brothers, saying, “I saw by a dream, as if the sun, and the moon, and eleven stars were reverencing 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 when he had related this to his father and brothers, his father rebuked him, and he said: “What does it mean to you, this dream that you have seen? Should I, and your mother, and your brothers reverence you upon the earth?”
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 Therefore, his brothers were envious of him. Yet truly, his father considered the matter silently.
Tedy záviděli mu bratří jeho; ale otec jeho měl pozor na tu věc.
12 And while his brothers were lodging at Shechem, pasturing their father’s flocks,
Odešli pak bratří jeho, aby pásli dobytek otce svého v Sichem.
13 Israel said to him: “Your brothers are pasturing the sheep at Shechem. Come, I will send you to them.” And when he answered,
A řekl Izrael Jozefovi: Zdaliž nepasou bratří tvoji v Sichem? Poď, a pošli tě k nim. Kterýžto odpověděl: Aj, teď jsem.
14 “I am ready,” he said to him, “Go, and see if everything is prospering with your brothers and the cattle, and report to me what is happening.” So, having been sent from the valley of Hebron, he arrived at 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 found him wandering in a field, and he asked him what he was seeking.
Našel ho pak muž nějaký, an bloudí po poli. I zeptal se ho muž ten, řka: Čeho hledáš?
16 So he responded: “I seek my brothers. Tell me where they pasture the flocks.”
Odpověděl: Bratří svých hledám; pověz mi, prosím, kde oni pasou?
17 And the man said to him: “They have withdrawn from this place. But I heard them saying, ‘Let us go to Dothan.’” Therefore, Joseph continued on after his brothers, and he found 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 And, when they had seen him from afar, before he approached them, they decided to kill him.
Kteřížto, jakž ho uzřeli zdaleka, prvé než k nim došel, ukládali o něm, aby jej zahubili.
19 And they said one to another: “Behold, the dreamer approaches.
Nebo řekli jeden druhému: Ej, mistr snů teď jde.
20 Come, let us kill him and cast him into the old cistern. And let us say: ‘an evil wild beast has devoured him.’ And then it will become apparent what his dreams will do for him.”
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, on hearing this, strove to free him from their hands, and he said:
A uslyšev to Ruben, aby ho vytrhl z ruky jejich, (nebo řekl: Neodjímejme mu hrdla, )
22 “Do not take away his life, nor shed blood. But throw him into this cistern, which is in the wilderness, and so keep your hands harmless.” But he said this, wanting to rescue him from their hands, so as to return him to his father.
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 And so, as soon as he came to his brothers, they very quickly stripped him of his tunic, which was ankle-length and woven of many colors,
A když přišel Jozef k bratřím svým, strhli s něho sukni jeho, sukni proměnných barev, kterouž měl na sobě.
24 and they cast him into an old cistern, which held no water.
A pochopivše, uvrhli jej do čisterny. Čisterna pak ta byla prázdná, v níž ne bylo vody.
25 And sitting down to eat bread, they saw some Ishmaelites, travelers coming from Gilead, with their camels, carrying spices, and resin, and oil of myrrh into Egypt.
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 Therefore, Judah said to his brothers: “What will it profit us, if we kill our brother and conceal his blood?
I řekl Juda bratřím svým: Jaký zisk míti budeme, zabijeme-li bratra svého, a zatajíme-li krve jeho?
27 It is better that he be sold to the Ishmaelites, and then our hands will not be defiled. For he is our brother and our flesh.” His brothers agreed to his words.
Poďte, prodejme ho Izmaelitským, a nevztahujme na něj rukou svých, nebo bratr náš, tělo naše jest. I uposlechli ho bratří jeho.
28 And when the Midianite merchants were passing by, they drew him from the cistern, and they sold him to the Ishmaelites for twenty pieces of silver. And these led him into 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 And Reuben, returning to the cistern, did not find the boy.
A navrátil se Ruben k čisterně, a aj, již ne bylo Jozefa v ní. I roztrhl roucha svá.
30 And rending his garments, he went to his brothers and said, “The boy is not present, and so where shall I go?”
A navrátiv se k bratřím svým, řekl: Pacholete není, a já kam se mám podíti?
31 Then they took his tunic, and they dipped it in the blood of a young goat, which they had killed,
Tedy vzali sukni Jozefovu, a zabivše kozla, smočili sukni tu ve krvi.
32 sending those who carried it to their father, and they said: “We found this. See whether it is the tunic of your son 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 when the father acknowledged it, he said: “It is the tunic of my son. An evil wild beast has eaten him; a beast has devoured Joseph.”
A on poznav ji, řekl: Sukně syna mého jest; zvěř lítá sežrala jej, konečně roztrhán jest Jozef.
34 And tearing his garments, he was clothed in haircloth, mourning his son for a long time.
I roztrhl Jákob roucha svá, a vloživ žíni na bedra svá, zámutek nesl po synu svém za mnoho dní.
35 Then, when all of his sons gathered together to ease their father’s sorrow, he was not willing to accept consolation, but he said: “I will descend in mourning to my son in the underworld.” And while he persevered in weeping, (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 the Midianites in Egypt sold Joseph to Potiphar, a eunuch of Pharaoh, instructor of the soldiers.
Mezi tím Madianští prodali Jozefa do Egypta Putifarovi, dvořeninu Faraonovu, hejtmanu žoldnéřů.
