< Genesis 37 >
1 Forsothe Jacob dwellide in the lond of Canaan, in which his fadir was a pilgrym; and these weren the generaciouns of hym.
Jekọb bigidere nʼala Kenan, ala ahụ nna ya buru ụzọ biri nʼime ya.
2 Joseph whanne he was of sixtene yeer, yit a child, kepte a flok with hise britheren, and was with the sones of Bala and Zelfa, wyues of his fadir; and he accuside his britheren at the fadir of `the worste synne.
Nke a bụ usoro akụkọ banyere ezinaụlọ Jekọb. Josef, onye gbarala afọ iri na asaa, na-esonyere ụmụnne ya ndị ikom na-azụ igwe anụ ụlọ, ya onwe ya bụ naanị nwantakịrị na-enyere ụmụ Bilha na ụmụ Zilpa ndị nwunye nna ya aka. Ma Josef na-ewetara nna ha akụkọ maka ihe ọjọọ ha na-eme.
3 Forsothe Israel louyde Joseph ouer alle hise sones, for he hadde gendrid hym in eelde; and he made to Joseph a cote of many colours.
Ma Izrel hụrụ Josef nʼanya karịa ụmụ ya ndị ikom ndị ọzọ niile nʼihi na Josef bụ nwa a mụụrụ ya nʼoge agadi ya. Ọ kwaara ya uwe mwụda nwere ọtụtụ agwa.
4 Forsothe hise britheren sien that he was loued of the fader more than alle, and thei hatiden hym, and myyten not speke ony thing pesibli to hym.
Mgbe ụmụnne ya chọpụtara na nna ha hụrụ ya nʼanya karịa onye ọbụla nʼime ha, ha kpọrọ ya asị, ha adịghị agwakwa ya okwu ọma.
5 And it bifelde that he telde to hise britheren a sweuene seyn, which cause was `the seed of more hatrede.
Otu oge, Josef rọrọ nrọ, mgbe ọ kọọrọ ụmụnne ya nrọ a ọ rọrọ, ha kpọrọ ya asị karịa.
6 And Joseph seide to his britheren, Here ye the sweuene which Y seiy,
Ọ gwara ha, “Geenụ ntị na nrọ a m rọrọ.
7 Y gesside that we bounden to gidere handfuls, and that as myn handful roos, and stood, and that youre handfuls stoden aboute and worschipiden myn handful.
Anyị niile nọ nʼubi na-achịkọta ọka, ngwangwa ukwu ọka nke m biliri guzoro ọtọ, ebe ukwu ọka nke unu niile gbara ukwu ọka nke m gburugburu, na-akpọ isiala nye ya.”
8 Hise britheren answerden, Whether thou shalt be oure kyng, ethir we shulen be maad suget to thi lordschip? Therfor this cause of sweuenys and wordis mynystride the nurschyng of enuye, and of hatrede.
Ụmụnne ya jụrụ ya, “Ị na-akọwa na ọ bụ gị ga-abụ eze anyị? Na ọ bụ gị nʼezie ga-achị anyị?” Ha kpọrọ ya asị karịa nʼihi nrọ ya na okwu ya niile.
9 Also Joseph seiy another sweuene, which he telde to the britheren, and seide, Y seiy bi a sweuene that as the sunne, and moone, and enleuen sterris worschipiden me.
Josef rọkwara nrọ ọzọ, kọkwara ụmụnne ya. Ọ sịrị, “Geenụ ntị, arọrọ m nrọ ọzọ. Ma na nrọ nke ugbu a, anyanwụ na ọnwa na kpakpando iri na otu na-akpọ isiala nye m.”
10 And whanne he hadde teld this sweuene to his fadir, and britheren, his fadir blamyde him, and seide, What wole this sweuene to it silf which thou hast seyn? Whether Y and thi modir, and thi britheren, schulen worschipe thee on erthe?
Ma mgbe ọ kọọrọ nna ya na ụmụnne ya nrọ a. Nna ya baara ya mba, sị, “Nrọ nke a ị rọrọ bụ nrọ gịnị? Ọ bụ ezie na anyị niile, mụ onwe m na nne gị na ụmụnne gị, ga-abịa na-akpọrọ gị isiala?”
11 Therfor hise britheren hadden enuye to hym. Forsothe the fadir bihelde pryuely the thing,
Ụmụnne ya kwosiri ya ekworo nʼihi ya, ma nna ya debere ihe ndị a niile nʼobi ya.
12 and whanne his britheren dwelliden in Sichem, aboute flockis of the fadir `to be kept,
Ka ọ dị, ụmụnne ya gara ilekọta igwe anụ ụlọ nna ha na Shekem.
13 Israel seide to Joseph, Thi britheren kepen scheep in Sichymys; come thou, Y schal sende thee to hem.
Izrel sịrị Josef, “Dịka ị maara, ụmụnne gị nọ na-eche anụ ụlọ na Shekem. Bịa, aga m eziga gị nʼebe ahụ.” Josef zara sị, “Ọ dị mma.”
14 And whanne Joseph answerde, Y am redi, Israel seide, Go thou, and se whether alle thingis ben esi anentis thi britheren, and scheep; and telle thou to me what is doon. He was sent fro the valey of Ebron, and cam into Sichem;
Ya mere, ọ gwara ya, “Gaa ka ị chọpụta ma ihe ọ na-agazikwara ụmụnne gị na igwe anụ ụlọ ndị ahụ nke ọma, ma weghachiri m ozi.” O sitere na Ndagwurugwu Hebrọn zipụ ya. Ọ bịaruru Shekem,
15 and a man foond hym errynge in the feeld, and `the man axide, what he souyte.
ma otu nwoke hụrụ ya ka ọ na-awagharị gburugburu nʼọhịa dị nʼebe ahụ, ọ jụrụ ya, “Gịnị ka ị na-achọ?”
16 And he answerde, Y seke my britheren, schewe thou to me where thei kepten flockis.
Ọ sịrị, “Ana m achọ ụmụnne m. Biko, ị nwere ike ịgwa m ebe ha nọ na-azụ igwe anụ ụlọ ha?”
17 And the man seide to hym, Thei yeden awei fro this place; forsothe Y herde hem seiynge, Go we into Dothaym. And Joseph yede aftir his britheren, and foond hem in Dothaym.
Nwoke ahụ zara sị, “Ha esitela nʼebe a pụọ. Anụrụ m ka ha na-asị, ‘Ka anyị gaa Dọtan.’” Ya mere, Josef gawara Dọtan ịchọ ụmụnne ya. Ọ hụkwara ha nʼebe dị nso na Dọtan.
18 And whanne thei hadden seyn hym afer, bifor that he neiyede to hem,
Ma ha lepụrụ anya hụ ya ka ọ na-abịa, gbaa izu otu ha ga-esi gbuo ya.
19 thei thouyten to sle hym, and spaken to gidere, Lo! the dremere cometh, come ye,
Ha sịrịtara onwe ha, “Lee eze nrọ ahụ ka ọ na-abịa!
20 sle we hym, and sende we into an eld sisterne, and we schulen seie, A wielde beeste ful wickid hath deuourid hym; and thanne it schal appere what hise dremes profiten to hym.
Ugbu a, bịanụ, ka anyị gbuo ya, tụba ya nʼime otu olulu ndị a. Anyị ga-asịkwa na anụ ọhịa eriela ya. Mgbe ahụ, anyị ga-ahụkwa ihe nrọ ya niile ga-abụ.”
21 Sotheli Ruben herde this, and enforside to delyuere hym fro her hondis,
Ruben nụrụ ihe a, ma napụtakwa ya site nʼaka ha. Ọ sịrị, “Ka anyị hapụ igbu ya.”
22 and seide, Sle we not the lijf of hym, nether schede we out his blood, but caste ye hym into an eeld cisterne, which is in the wildirnesse, and kepe ye youre hondis gilteles. Forsothe he seide this, willynge to delyuere hym fro her hondis, and to yelde to his fadir.
Ruben sịrị ha, “Ka unu hapụ ịkwafu ọbara. Kama tụnyenụ ya nʼime olulu a dị nʼọzara. Ma unu akpatụkwala ya aka.” Ma nzube ya bụ ịnapụta ya site nʼaka ha, dulaara ya nna ya.
23 Therfor anoon as Joseph cam to hise britheren, thei dispuyliden hym of the coote, doun to the heele, and of many colours, and senten into the eeld cisterne,
Ya mere, mgbe Josef bịakwutere ụmụnne ya, ha yipụrụ ya uwe mwụda ya, uwe mwụda nwere ọtụtụ agwa o yi nʼahụ.
Ha duru ya tụnye ya nʼime olulu. Ọ bụ olulu tọgbọrọ nʼefu, nke mmiri na-adịghị nʼime ya.
25 And thei saten `to ete breed; and thei sien that Ismaelitis weigoers camen fro Galaad, and that her camels baren swete smellynge spiceries, and `rosyn, and stacten, into Egipt.
Mgbe ha nọdụrụ ala bido iri nri, ha leliri anya ha hụ igwe ndị ahịa Ishmel si Gilead. Ịnyịnya kamel ha bu ụda na mgbaa na máá. Ọ bụkwa Ijipt ka ha bu ihe ndị a na-aga.
26 Therfor Judas seide to hise britheren, What schal it profite to vs, if we schulen sle oure brother, and schulen hide his blood?
Mgbe ahụ, Juda jụrụ ụmụnne ya, “Uru gịnị ka ọ ga-abara anyị igbu nwanne anyị, ma kpuchie ọbara ya?
27 It is betere that he be seeld to Ismalitis, and oure hondis be not defoulid, for he is oure brother and fleisch. The britheren assentiden to these wordis;
Bịanụ, ka anyị resi ya ndị Ishmel ndị a, ka aka anyị ghara nʼimetụ ya, nʼihi na nwanne anyị na otu anụ ahụ anyị ka ọ bụ.” Ụmụnne ya gere ya ntị.
28 and whanne marchauntis of Madian passiden forth, thei drowen hym out of the cisterne, and seelden hym to Ismaelitis, for thriytti platis of siluer; whiche ledden hym in to Egipt.
Mgbe ndị ahịa Midia ahụ rutere, ha sitere nʼolulu dọpụta Josef resi ya ndị Ishmel ahụ, ndị kwụrụ ụmụnne Josef iri mkpụrụ shekel ọlaọcha abụọ. Ha duuru Josef gaa Ijipt.
29 And Ruben turnede ayen to the cisterne, and foond not the child;
Ruben mechara lọghachi gaa nʼolulu ahụ, ma ka ọ na-ahụghị Josef nʼime olulu a, ọ dọwara uwe ya.
30 and he to-rente his closis, and he yede to hise britheren, and seide, The child apperith not, and whidir schal Y go?
O jekwuru ụmụnne ya sị ha, “Nwata ahụ anọkwaghị ebe ahụ! Mụ onwe m, olee ebe m ga-ala?”
31 Forsothe thei token his coote, and dippiden in the blood of a kide, which thei hadden slayn; and senten men that baren to the fadir,
Ụmụnne ya gburu otu ewu were uwe Josef bịanye nʼime ọbara ya.
32 and seiden, We han founde this coote, se, whether it is the coote of thi sone, ether nai.
Ha chịịrị uwe mwụda ahụ nwere ọtụtụ agwa jekwuru nna ha sị ya, “Anyị hụrụ uwe a nʼime ọhịa. Leruo ya anya ka ị mara maọbụ uwe mwụda nwa gị.”
33 And whanne the fader hadde knowe it, he seide, It is the coote of my sone, a wielde beeste ful wickid hath ete hym, a beeste hath deuourid Joseph.
Ọ matara na ọ bụ ya, sị, “E, nke a bụ uwe nwa m nwoke. Ajọ anụ eriela ya. Anụ ọhịa adọkasịala Josef nʼezie.”
34 And he to-rente his clothis, and he was clothid with an heire, and biweilide his sone in myche tyme.
Mgbe ahụ, Jekọb dọwara uwe ya, yiri akwa mkpe, ruo ụjụ ọtụtụ ụbọchị nʼihi nwa ya.
35 Sothely whanne hise fre children weren gaderid to gidere, that thei schulden peese the sorewe of the fadir, he nolde take counfort, but seide, Y schal go doun in to helle, and schal biweile my sone. And the while Jacob contynude in wepyng, (Sheol )
Ụmụ ya ndị ikom na ụmụ ya ndị inyom niile bịara ịkasị ya obi, ma ọ jụrụ ịnabata nkasiobi ọbụla. Ọ sịrị, “Aga m alakwuru nwa m nʼala mmụọ site nʼiru ụjụ.” Nna ya kwagidere akwa nʼihi ya. (Sheol )
36 Madianytis seelden Joseph into Egipt to Putifar, chast `and onest seruaunt of Farao, maistir of the chyualrie.
Ugbu a, ndị Midia ahụ rere Josef nʼIjipt, resi ya Pọtifa, otu nʼime ndịisi na-ejere Fero ozi, onye bụ onyeisi ndị nche Fero, bụ eze Ijipt.
