Kinohi 37
1 NOHO aka la o Iakoba ma ka aina a kona makuakane i noho malihini ai, ma ka aina i Kanaana.
So Jacob dwelt in the land of the sojournings of his father, —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, when seventeen years old, was shepherding with his brethren among the flocks, and, he, being a youth, was with the sons of Bilhah and with the sons of Zilpah wives of his father, —so then Joseph brought in the talk about them—something bad, unto their father.
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, Israel, loved Joseph more than any of his sons, because he was to him, the son of his old age, and he had made him, a long tunic.
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.
So his brethren saw that their father loved him, more than any of his brethren, and they hated him, and could not bid him prosper,
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.
And Joseph dreamed a dream, and told it to his brethren, and they went on yet more to hate him.
6 I aku la ia ia lakou, Ea, e hoolohe mai oukou i keia moe a'u i moe ai.
And he said unto them, Hear ye I pray you, this dream which I have dreamed:
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.
Lo! then, we, were binding sheaves in the midst of the field, when lo my sheaf rose up, yea and took its stand, —and lo! round about came your sheaves, and bowed themselves down to my sheaf.
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 brethren said to him, Shalt thou, reign, over us, shalt thou, have dominion over us? So they went on yet more to hate him, because of his dreams and because of his words.
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 dreamed he, yet another, dream, and related it to his brethren, and said: —Lo! I have dreamed a dream, yet again, Lo! then, the sun and the moon, and eleven stars, were bowing themselves down 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?
So he related it unto his father, and unto his brethren, —and his father rebuked him, and said unto him, What is this dream which thou hast dreamed? Shall we, indeed come in, I, and thy mother and thy brethren, to bow ourselves down to thee to the earth?
11 Huahuwa ae la kona poe kaikuaana ia ia, a malama iho la kona makuakane i ua olelo la.
Then were his brethren jealous of him, but his father, marked the word.
12 Hele aku la kona poe kaikuaana i Sekema, e hanai i ka poe holoholona a ka makuakane o lakou.
Now his brethren went their way, —to feed 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.
So Israel said unto Joseph Are not, thy brethren, feeding the flock in Shechem? Come on! and let me send thee unto them. And he said to him Behold me!
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.
So he said to him—Go, I pray thee, look after the welfare of thy brethren, and the welfare of the flock, and bring me back word. And he sent him from the vale of Hebron, and he came in towards 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 found him, and lo! he was wandering about in the field, so the man asked him saying—What seekest thou?
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, My brethren, am, I, seeking, —do tell me, I pray thee, where they are feeding 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 broken up from hence, for I heard them saying Let us go our way towards Dothan. So Joseph went after his brethren, and found them, in 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.
And they saw him afar off, —and, ere yet he drew near unto them, they conspired 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.
And they said each man unto his brother, Lo! that master of dreams yonder, coming in!
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.
Now, therefore, come! let us slay him and cast him into one of the pits, and we will say A cruel beast, hath devoured him, —And let us see what will become 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.
And Reuben heard it, and rescued him out of their hand, and said Let us not smite him, so as to 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.
And Reuben said unto them Do not shed blood! Cast him into this pit, which is in the wilderness, but put not forth, a hand, against him! that he might rescue him out of their hand, to restore him unto his father.
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 it came to pass, when Joseph had come in unto his brethren, that they stript Joseph of his tunic, the long tunic which was upon him,
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 took him, and cast him into the pit, but the pit, was empty, there was in it no water.
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.
And when they had sat down to eat bread, they lifted up their eyes and looked, and lo! a caravan of Ishmaelites, coming in from Gilead, —and, their camels, were bearing tragacanth gum, and balsam and cistus-gum, they were going their way, to take them down to Egypt.
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?
So Judah said unto his brethren, —What profit that we slay our brother, and conceal 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.
Come and let us sell him to the Ishmaelites; but let not, our own hand, be upon him, for our own brother, our own flesh, is he And his brethren hearkened.
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 there passed by certain Midianites travelling merchants, so they drew forth and uplifted Joseph out of the pit, and sold Joseph to the Ishmaelites, for twenty pieces of silver, —and they brought Joseph into 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.
And Reuben returned unto the pit, and lo Joseph was not in the pit, so he rent his clothes;
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?
and returned unto his brethren, and said, —The, lad, is not! And, I, oh where can I, go?
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.
And they took Joseph’s tunic, —and slaughtered a buck of the goats, and dipped the tunic in the blood;
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 sent the long tunic and brought it in unto their father, and said This, have we found! Examine, we pray thee, whether it is the tunic of thy son, 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.
So he examined it, and said—The tunic of my son! A cruel beast hath devoured him, —torn in pieces—torn in pieces, is Joseph!
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.
And Jacob rent his garments, and put sackcloth upon his loins, —and mourned over his son many days.
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 rose up to console him but he refused to be consoled, and said—Surely I will go down unto my son mourning to hades! And his father wept 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.
Now, the Midianites, sold him into Egypt, —to Potiphar courtier of Pharaoh, chief of the royal executioners.
