Genesis 37
1 Nagnaed ni Jacob iti daga a pagnanaedan ti amana, iti daga ti Canaan.
Jacob [Supplanter] lived in the land of his father’s travels, in the land of Canaan [Humbled].
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.
This is the history of the generations of Jacob [Supplanter]. Joseph [May he add], being seventeen years old, was feeding the flock with his brothers. He was a boy with the sons of Bilhah [Bashful] and Zilpah [Frailty], his father’s wives. Joseph [May he add] brought an evil report of them to 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 [God prevails] 'ahav ·affectionately loved· Joseph [May he add] more than all his children, because he was the son of his old age, and he made him a coat of many colors.
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.
His brothers saw that their father 'ahav ·affectionately loved· him more than all his brothers, and they hated him, and couldn’t speak peaceably to him.
5 Nagtagtagainep ni Jose, ket imbagana ti maipapan iti daytoy kadagiti kakabsatna. Ad-adda pay a ginurada isuna.
Joseph [May he add] dreamed a dream, and he told it to his brothers, and they hated him all the more.
6 Kinunana kadakuada, “Pangngaasiyo ta denggenyo daytoy a natagtagainepko.
He said to them, “Please sh'ma ·hear obey· 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 behold, my sheaf arose and also stood upright; and behold, your sheaves came around, 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.
His brothers said to him, “Will you indeed reign over us? Or will you indeed have dominion over us?” They hated him all 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.”
He dreamed yet another dream, and told it to his brothers, and said, “Behold, I have dreamed yet another 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?
He told it to his father and to his brothers. His father rebuked him, and said to him, “What is this dream that you have dreamed? Will I and your mother and your brothers indeed come to bow ourselves down to you to the earth?”
11 Umapal dagiti kakabsatna kenkuana, ngem ti amana ket pinanpanunotna daytoy a banag.
His brothers envied him, but his father kept this saying in mind.
12 Napan idiay Sikem dagiti kakabsatna tapno aywananda dagiti arban ti amada.
His brothers 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.”
Israel [God prevails] said to Joseph [May he add], “Are not your brothers feeding the flock in Shechem? Come, and I will send you to them.” He said to him, “Here I am.”
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.
He said to him, “Go now, see whether it is well with your brothers, and well with the flock; and bring me word again.” So he sent him out of the valley 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?”
A certain man found him, and behold, he was wandering in the field. The man asked him, “What are you looking for?”
16 Kinuna ni Jose, “Birbirukek dagiti kakabsatko. Ibagam koma kaniak no sadino ti pangay-aywananda kadagiti arban.”
He said, “I am looking for my brothers. Tell me, please, 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.
The man said, “They have left here, for I sh'ma ·heard obeyed· them say, ‘Let us go to Dothan.’” Joseph [May he add] went after his brothers, and found them in Dothan.
18 Nakitada isuna iti saan unay nga adayo, ken sakbay a nakaasideg isuna kadakuada, pinanggepda a patayen isuna.
They saw him afar off, and before he came near to them, they conspired against him to kill him.
19 Kinuna dagiti kakabsatna iti tunggal maysa, “Kitaenyo, um-umay daytoy a managtagtagainep.
They said to one another, “Behold, this dreamer comes.
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’s kill him, and cast him into one of the pits, and we will say, ‘An evil animal has devoured him.’ We will see what will become of his dreams.”
21 Nangngeg ni Ruben daytoy ket inispalna isuna manipud kadagiti imada. Kinunana, “Saantayo a pukawne ti biagna.”
Reuben [See, a son!] sh'ma ·heard obeyed· it, and delivered him out of their hand, and said, “Let’s 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.
Reuben [See, a son!] said to them, “Shed no blood. Throw him into this pit that is in the wilderness, but lay no hand on 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.
When Joseph [May he add] came to his brothers, they stripped Joseph [May he add] of his coat, the coat of many colors 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 threw him into the pit. 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.
They sat down to eat bread, and they lifted up their eyes and looked, and saw a caravan of Ishmaelites [Pays attention God] was coming from Gilead, with their camels bearing spices and balm and myrrh, going to carry it down to Egypt [Abode of slavery].
26 Kinuna ni Juda kadagiti kakabsatna, “Ania ti maganabtayo no patayentayo ti kabsattayo ken agulbodtayo gapu iti pannakatayna?
Judah [Praised] said to his brothers, “What profit is it if we kill 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’s sell him to the Ishmaelites [Pays attention God], and not let our hand be on him; for he is our brother, our flesh.” His brothers sh'ma ·heard obeyed· 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.
Midianites [Descendants of Strife] who were merchants passed by, and they drew and lifted up Joseph [May he add] out of the pit, and sold Joseph [May he add] to the Ishmaelites [Pays attention God] for twenty pieces of silver. They brought Joseph [May he add] into Egypt [Abode of slavery].
29 Nagsubli ni Ruben idiay ayan ti abut ket idi kitaenna, awan met ni Jose iti abut. Rinay-ab ni Ruben ti kawesna.
Reuben [See, a son!] returned to the pit; and saw that Joseph [May he add] was not in the pit; and he tore his clothes.
30 Nagsubli isuna kadagiti kakabsatna ket kinunana, “Ayanna ngayen ti ubing? Ket siak, papanakon ngay?”
He teshuvah ·completely returned· to his brothers, and said, “The child is no more; and I, where will I go?”
31 Nangpatayda iti kalding ken innalada ti kawes ni Jose ket insawsawda iti dara.
They took Joseph [May he add]’s coat, and killed a male 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.”
They took the coat of many colors, and they brought it to their father, and said, “We have found this. Examine it, now, whether it is your 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.”
He recognized it, and said, “It is my son’s coat. An evil animal has devoured him. Joseph [May he add] 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.
Jacob [Supplanter] tore his clothes, and put sackcloth on his waist, 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)
All his sons and all his daughters rose up to comfort him, but he refused to be comforted. He said, “For I will go down to Sheol ·Place of the dead· to my son mourning.” 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.
The Midianites [Descendants of Strife] sold him into Egypt [Abode of slavery] to Potiphar, an officer of Pharaoh’s, the captain of the guard.
