Kinohi 37
1 NOHO aka la o Iakoba ma ka aina a kona makuakane i noho malihini ai, ma ka aina i Kanaana.
Now Jacob was living in the land where his father had made a place for himself, in the land of Canaan.
2 Eia ka mooolelo no Iakoba. He umi ko Iosepa makahiki a me kumamahiku, e hanai ana oia i na holoholona me kona poe kaikuaana, e noho pu ana o ua keiki la me na keikikane a Bileha, a me na keikikane a Zilepa, na wahine a kona makuakane, a hai mai la o Iosepa i ka makuakane o lakou i ka lono ino o lakou.
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.
3 Ua oi aku la ke aloha o Iseraela ia Iosepa mamua o kana mau keiki a pau, no ka mea, he keiki ia no kona wa elemakule: a hana iho la ia i kapakomo onionio nona.
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.
4 A ike iho la kona poe kaikuaana i ke kela ana aku o ke aloha o ko lakou makuakane ia Iosepa mamua o kona poe hoahanau a pau, inaina aku la lakou ia Iosepa, aole i hiki ke olelo oluolu aku ia ia.
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.
5 Moe iho la o Iosepa i ka moe, a hai aku la i kona poe kaikuaana, a nui hou mai la ko lakou inaina ana ia ia.
Now Joseph had a dream, and he gave his brothers an account of it, which made their hate greater than ever.
6 I aku la ia ia lakou, Ea, e hoolohe mai oukou i keia moe a'u i moe ai.
And he said to them, Let me give you the story of my dream.
7 Eia hoi, i ka pua ana a kakou i na pua, ma ka mahina ai, ala mai la ka'u pua, a kupono ae la iluna; a o ka oukou mau pua ka i ku poai mai la, a kulou iho la i ka'u pua.
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.
8 Olelo mai la kona poe kaikuaana ia ia, E alii ana ka oe maluna o makou? O oe anei ka haku maluna o makou? Huhu nui aku la lakou ia ia i kana moe, a i kana olelo.
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.
9 A mahope aku, moe hou iho la ia i ka moe, a hai hou aku la i kona poe kaikuaana, i aku la, Eia hoi, ua moe hou iho nei au i ka moe; a ua kulou mai ia'u ka la, a me ka mahina, a me na hoku he umikumamakahi.
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.
10 Hai aku la ia i kona makuakane, a i kona poe kaikuaana. Papa mai la kona makuakane, i mai la ia ia, Heaha keia moe au i moe ai? E hele anei au iou la, a me kou makuwahine, a me kou poe hoahanau, e kulou ilalo i ka honua imua ou?
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?
11 Huahuwa ae la kona poe kaikuaana ia ia, a malama iho la kona makuakane i ua olelo la.
And his brothers were full of envy; but his father kept his words in mind.
12 Hele aku la kona poe kaikuaana i Sekema, e hanai i ka poe holoholona a ka makuakane o lakou.
Now his brothers went to keep watch over their father's flock in Shechem.
13 Olelo aku la o Iseraela ia Iosepa, Aia paha kou poe kaikuaana e hanai holoholona ana ma Sekema? Auhea oe? E hoouna ana au ia oe io lakou la. I mai la kela ia ia, Eia no wau.
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.
14 I aku la oia ia ia, Ea, o hele oe e ike i ka pono o kou poe kaikuaana, a me ka pono o na holoholona, a e hai mai ia'u. Hoouna aka la oia ia ia, iwaho o ke awawa o Heberona, a hiki aku la ia i Sekema.
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.
15 A loaa ia i kekahi kanaka, aia hoi, ua hele hewa ia i ke kula. Ninau mai la ua kanaka la ia ia, i mai la, Heaha kau mea e imi nei?
And a man saw him wandering in the country, and said to him, What are you looking for?
16 Olelo aku la ia, E imi ana au i ko'u poe kaikuaana: e hai mai oe ia'u i kahi a lakou e hanai ai i na holoholona.
And he said, I am looking for my brothers; please give me word of where they are keeping their flock.
17 Olelo mai la ia kanaka, Ua hala'ku la lakou: ua lohe au i ka olelo ana a lakou, E, e hele kakou i Dotana. Hahai aku la o Iosepa i kona poe kaikuaana, a loaa aku la lakou Dotana.
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.
18 A ike mai la lakou ia ia ma kahi loihi aku, aole ia i lihi koke mai, ohumu iho la lakou ia ia, e make ia.
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;
19 Olelo ae la lakou i kekahi i kekahi, Eia'e ka mea nana na moe, ke hele mai nei.
Saying to one another, See, here comes this dreamer.
20 Ina kakou e pepehi ia ia a make loa, e hoolei ia ia iloko o kahi lua, a e olelo aku kakou, Na ka ilio hihiu ia i ai; alaila, e ike kakou i ka hope o kana mau moe.
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.
21 A lohe ae la o Reubena, hoola ae la oia ia ia, mai ko lakou lima ae; i ae la, Mai pepehi kakou ia ia.
But Reuben, hearing these words, got him out of their hands, saying, Let us not take his life.
22 Olelo aku la o Reubena ia lakou, Mai hookahe i ke koko; e hoolei ia ia iloko o keia hua o ka aina waonahele. Mai kau i ka lima maluna ona. Manao iho la ia e hoopakele ia ia, mai ko lakou lima ae, a e hoihoi aku ia ia i kona makuakane.
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.
23 A hiki aku la o Iosepa i kona poe kaikuaana, hao ae la lakou i ko Iosepa kapa, o ke kapa onionio maluna ona;
So when Joseph came to his brothers, they took off his long coat which he had on;
24 Lalau ae la lakou ia ia, hoolei aku la ia ia iloko o ka lua. Ua kaawale ka lua, aole he wai oloko.
And they took him and put him in the hole: now the hole had no water in it.
25 A noho iho la lakou e ai i ka ai. Alawa'e la ko lakou maka, ike aku la, aia hoi kekahi poe mamo a Isemaela, e hele mai ana, mai Gileada mai, me ko lakou mau kamelo, ua kaumaha i ka mea ala, a me ka bama, a me ka mura, e lawe hele ana i Aigupita.
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.
26 Olelo aku la o Inda i kona poe hoahanau, Heaha ka maikai, ke pepehi kakou i ko kakou kaikaina, a huna i kona koko?
And Judah said to his brothers, What profit is there in putting our brother to death and covering up his blood?
27 Ina kakou e kuai aku ia ia i ka Isemaela; mai kau ko kakou lima maluna ona; no ka mea, o ko kakou kaikaina no ia, a me ko kakou io. A hoolohe mai la kona poe hoahanau ia ia.
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.
28 Hele ae la ua poe kanaka kuai la, no Midiana, huki mai la lakou, a hapai ae la ia Iosepa, mai loko mai o ka lua, a kuai aku la ia ia, i ka Isemaela, i na hapakala, he iwakalua. A lawe ae la lakou ia Iosepa i Aigupita.
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.
29 A hoi mai la o Reubena i ka lua, aia hoi, aole o Iosepa iloko o ka lua: haehae iho la ia i kona kapa.
Now when Reuben came back to the hole, Joseph was not there; and giving signs of grief,
30 A hoi aku la ia i kona poe hoahanau, i aku la, Aole loa ke keiki; a o wau, ihea la wau e hele ai?
He went back to his brothers, and said, The child is gone; what am I to do?
31 Lawe ae la lakou i ke kapa o Iosepa, pepehi iho la lakou i ke kao keiki, a kupenu iho la i ke kapa i ke koko.
Then they took Joseph's coat, and put on it some of the blood from a young goat which they had put to death,
32 Hoouka aku la lakou i ua kapa onionio la, a hiki i ko lakou makuakane; i aku la, Ua loaa mai keia ia makou: e nana oe, o ke kapa paha o kau keiki, aole paha.
And they took the coat to their father, and said, We came across this; is it your son's coat or not?
33 Ike mai la kela, i mai la, Oia, o ke kapa no ia o ka'u keiki; ua pau o Iosepa i ka ilio hihiu, oiaio no, ua haehaeia o Iosepa.
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.
34 Haehae iho la o Iseraela i kona kapa, kaei ae la i ke kapa inoino ma kona puhaka, a kanikau iho la ia i kana keiki a nui na la.
Then Jacob, giving signs of grief, put on haircloth, and went on weeping for his son day after day.
35 Ku mai la kana mau keikikane a pau, a me kana mau kaikamahine a pau, e hoonana ia ia. Hoole aku la kela, aole e na: i aku la, E kanikau no au, a hiki au ilalo i ka lua i kuu keiki la. Pela i uwe ai kona makuakane ia ia. (Sheol h7585)
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)
36 A kuai aku la ko Midiana ia ia i Aigupita, ia Potipara, he luna na Parao, oia ka luna o ka poe koa.
And in Egypt the men of Midian gave him for a price to Potiphar, a captain of high position in Pharaoh's house.
