< Genesis 37 >

1 Nagnaed ni Jacob iti daga a pagnanaedan ti amana, iti daga ti Canaan.
And Jacob dwelt in the land of his father's sojournings, in the land of Canaan.
2 Dagitoy dagiti pasamak maipanggep kenni Jacob. Ti barito a ni Jose nga agtawen iti sangapulo ket pito, ket ay-aywananna dagiti arban a kaduana dagiti kakabsatna a lallaki. Kaduana dagiti annak ni Bilha ken dagiti annak ni Zilpa, nga assawa ti amana. Adda impadamag ni Jose a saan a nasayaat a banag maipanggep kadakuada iti amada.
These are the generations of Jacob. Joseph, being seventeen years old, was feeding the flock with his brethren, being still a lad even with the sons of Bilhah, and with the sons of Zilpah, his father's wives; and Joseph brought evil report of them unto their father.
3 Ita, ad-adda ti panangipateg ni Israel kenni Jose ngem kadagiti amin a putotna gapu ta naiyanak daytoy idi lakayen ni Israel. Inyaramidanna isuna iti napintas a kawes.
Now Israel loved Joseph more than all his children, because he was the son of his old age; and he made him a coat of many colours.
4 Nadlaw dagiti kakabsatna nga ad-adda ti panagayat ti amada kenkuana ngem kadakuada amin a kakabsatna. Ginurada ken saan a nasayaat iti panakisaritada kenkuana.
And when his brethren saw that their father loved him more than all his brethren, they hated him, and could not speak peaceably unto him.
5 Nagtagtagainep ni Jose, ket imbagana ti maipapan iti daytoy kadagiti kakabsatna. Ad-adda pay a ginurada isuna.
And Joseph dreamed a dream, and he told it to his brethren; and they hated him yet the more.
6 Kinunana kadakuada, “Pangngaasiyo ta denggenyo daytoy a natagtagainepko.
And he said unto them: 'Hear, I pray you, this dream which I have dreamed:
7 Mangrepreppettayo kampay idi kadagiti trigo idiay talon, pagammoan ket bimmangon ti rineppetko ken timmakder, ket pagammoan, pinalikmutan ken nagrukob dagiti rineppetyo iti rineppetko.”
for, behold, we were binding sheaves in the field, and, lo, my sheaf arose, and also stood upright; and, behold, your sheaves came round about, and bowed down to my sheaf.'
8 Kinuna dagiti kakabsatna kenkuana, “Ibagbagam kadi nga idaulloannakaminto? Mapasamakto aya met nga iturayannakami?” Ad-adda a ginurada isuna gapu kadagiti tagtagainepna ken gapu kadagiti sasaona.
And his brethren said to him: 'Shalt thou indeed reign over us? or shalt thou indeed have dominion over us?' And they hated him yet the more for his dreams, and for his words.
9 Nagtagtagainep manen isuna iti maysa pay, ket imbagana daytoy kadagiti kakabsatna. Kinunana, “Ammoyo kadi, adda manen natagtagainepko: Nagrukob kano kaniak ti init, ti bulan, ken dagiti sangapulo ket maysa a bituen.”
And he dreamed yet another dream, and told it to his brethren, and said: 'Behold, I have dreamed yet a dream: and, behold, the sun and the moon and eleven stars bowed down to me.'
10 Imbagana met daytoy iti amana a kas met kadagiti kakabsatna, ket tinubngar isuna ti amana. Kinunana kenkuana, “Ania met daytoy a natagtagainepmo? Ibagbagam kadi nga agrukobak kasta met ti inam ken uray pay dagiti kakabsatmo kenka?
And he told it to his father, and to his brethren; and his father rebuked him, and said unto him: 'What is this dream that thou hast dreamed? Shall I and thy mother and thy brethren indeed come to bow down to thee to the earth?'
11 Umapal dagiti kakabsatna kenkuana, ngem ti amana ket pinanpanunotna daytoy a banag.
And his brethren envied him; but his father kept the saying in mind.
12 Napan idiay Sikem dagiti kakabsatna tapno aywananda dagiti arban ti amada.
And his brethren went to feed their father's flock in Shechem.
13 Kinuna ni Israel kenni Jose, “Di met adda dagiti kakabsatmo idiay Sikem a mangay-aywan kadagiti arban? Umayka ta ibaonka kadakuada.” Kinuna ni Jose kenkuana, “Nakasaganaak.”
And Israel said unto Joseph: 'Do not thy brethren feed the flock in Shechem? come, and I will send thee unto them.' And he said to him: 'Here am I.'
14 Kinunana kenkuana, “Mapankan, kitaem no nasayaat met laeng ti kasasaad dagiti kakabsatmo ken dagiti arban, ket umaymo ipakaammo kaniak.” Imbaon ngarud ni Jacob ni Jose manipud iti tanap ti Hebron ket napan isuna idiay Sikem.
And he said to him: 'Go now, see whether it is well with thy brethren, and well with the flock; and bring me back word.' So he sent him out of the vale of Hebron, and he came to Shechem.
15 Nakita ti maysa a lalaki ni Jose. Agalla-alla idi ni Jose iti tay-ak. Sinaludsod ti lalaki kenkuana, “Ania ti birbirukem?”
And a certain man found him, and, behold, he was wandering in the field. And the man asked him, saying: 'What seekest thou?'
16 Kinuna ni Jose, “Birbirukek dagiti kakabsatko. Ibagam koma kaniak no sadino ti pangay-aywananda kadagiti arban.”
And he said: 'I seek my brethren. Tell me, I pray thee, where they are feeding the flock.'
17 Kinuna ti lalaki, “Pimmanawda iti daytoy a lugar ta nangngegko a kinunada, 'Mapantayo idiay Dotan.”' Sinurot ngarud ni Jose dagiti kakabsatna ket nasarakanna ida idiay Dotan.
And the man said: 'They are departed hence; for I heard them say: Let us go to Dothan.' And Joseph went after his brethren, and found them in Dothan.
18 Nakitada isuna iti saan unay nga adayo, ken sakbay a nakaasideg isuna kadakuada, pinanggepda a patayen isuna.
And they saw him afar off, and before he came near unto them, they conspired against him to slay him.
19 Kinuna dagiti kakabsatna iti tunggal maysa, “Kitaenyo, um-umay daytoy a managtagtagainep.
And they said one to another: 'Behold, this dreamer cometh.
20 Umaykayo ngaruden, patayentayo isuna ken itinnagtayo iti maysa kadagiti abut. Ibagatayonto, “Inalun-on isuna ti narungsot nga ayup.' Kitaentayo man no anianto ti pagbanagan dagiti tagtagainepna.”
Come now therefore, and let us slay him, and cast him into one of the pits, and we will say: An evil beast hath devoured him; and we shall see what will become of his dreams.'
21 Nangngeg ni Ruben daytoy ket inispalna isuna manipud kadagiti imada. Kinunana, “Saantayo a pukawne ti biagna.”
And Reuben heard it, and delivered him out of their hand; and said: 'Let us not take his life.'
22 Kinuna ni Ruben kadakuada, “Saanyo a pagayusen ti dara. Ibillengyo isuna iti abut nga adda iti daytoy a let-ang ngem saanyo a dangran isuna”- tapno maispalna isuna manipud kadagiti imada ket maisublina isuna iti amana.
And Reuben said unto them: 'Shed no blood; cast him into this pit that is in the wilderness, but lay no hand upon him' — that he might deliver him out of their hand, to restore him to his father.
23 Ket napasamak nga idi nakadanunen ni Jose iti ayan dagiti kakabsatna, inallada ti napintas a kawesna.
And it came to pass, when Joseph was come unto his brethren, that they stripped Joseph of his coat, the coat of many colours that was on him;
24 Innalada isuna ket intinnagda iti abut. Awan naggian ti abut ket awan danum iti daytoy.
and they took him, and cast him into the pit — and the pit was empty, there was no water in it.
25 Nagtugawda a mangan iti tinapay. Timman-awda ket adda nakitada a bunggoy dagiti Ismaelita a sumungsungad a naggapu idiay Galaad, ket awit dagiti kamelioda dagiti rekado, bangbanglo ken mirra. Agdaldaliasatda tapno iyapanda dagitoy idiay Egipto.
And they sat down to eat bread; and they lifted up their eyes and looked, and, behold, a caravan of Ishmaelites came from Gilead, with their camels bearing spicery and balm and ladanum, going to carry it down to Egypt.
26 Kinuna ni Juda kadagiti kakabsatna, “Ania ti maganabtayo no patayentayo ti kabsattayo ken agulbodtayo gapu iti pannakatayna?
And Judah said unto his brethren: 'What profit is it if we slay our brother and conceal his blood?
27 Umaykayo, ilakotayo ketdi isuna kadagiti Ismaelita a saan ket a dangran. Ta kabsattayo isuna, kadaraantayo a mismo.” Dimngeg dagiti kakabsatna kenkuana.
Come, and let us sell him to the Ishmaelites, and let not our hand be upon him; for he is our brother, our flesh.' And his brethren hearkened unto him.
28 Limmabas dagiti agtagtagilako a Midianita. Inyaon dagiti kakabsat ni Jose isuna ket inruarda isuna iti abut. Inlakoda ni Jose kadagiti Ismaelita iti duapulo a pirak. Intugot dagiti Ismaelita ni Jose idiay Egipto.
And there passed by Midianites, merchantmen; and they drew and lifted up Joseph out of the pit, and sold Joseph to the Ishmaelites for twenty shekels of silver. And they brought Joseph into Egypt.
29 Nagsubli ni Ruben idiay ayan ti abut ket idi kitaenna, awan met ni Jose iti abut. Rinay-ab ni Ruben ti kawesna.
And Reuben returned unto the pit; and, behold, Joseph was not in the pit; and he rent his clothes.
30 Nagsubli isuna kadagiti kakabsatna ket kinunana, “Ayanna ngayen ti ubing? Ket siak, papanakon ngay?”
And he returned unto his brethren, and said: 'The child is not; and as for me, whither shall I go?'
31 Nangpatayda iti kalding ken innalada ti kawes ni Jose ket insawsawda iti dara.
And they took Joseph's coat, and killed a he-goat, and dipped the coat in the blood;
32 Kalpasanna, inyapanda daytoy iti amada ket kinunada, “Nasarakanmi daytoy. Pangngaasim ta kitaem no kawes daytoy ti anakmo wenno saan.”
and they sent the coat of many colours, and they brought it to their father; and said: 'This have we found. Know now whether it is thy son's coat or not.'
33 Nabigbig ni Jacob daytoy ket kinunana, “Kawes daytoy ti anakko. Inalun-on isuna ti narungsot nga ayup. Awan duadua a napirsapirsayen ni Jose.”
And he knew it, and said: 'It is my son's coat; an evil beast hath devoured him; Joseph is without doubt torn in pieces.'
34 Rinay-ab ni Jacob dagiti kawesna ket nagkawes isuna iti nakersang a lupot. Nagdung-aw isuna para iti putotna iti adu nga aldaw.
And Jacob rent his garments, and put sackcloth upon his loins, and mourned for his son many days.
35 Immay dagiti amin a putotna a lallaki ken babbai tapno liwliwaenda isuna ngem saanna a kayat a maliwliwa. Kinunana, “Mapanakto idiay sheol a silaladingit gapu iti anakko.” Sinangsangitan ni Jacob ni Jose. (Sheol h7585)
And all his sons and all his daughters rose up to comfort him; but he refused to be comforted; and he said: 'Nay, but I will go down to the grave to my son mourning.' And his father wept for him. (Sheol h7585)
36 Inlako isuna dagiti Midianita idiay Egipto, kenni Potifar, maysa nga opisial ti Faraon, ken isu iti mangidadaulo kadagiti guardia ti Faraon.
And the Midianites sold him into Egypt unto Potiphar, an officer of Pharaoh's, the captain of the guard.
