Genesis 48
1 Ket napasamak a kalpasan dagitoy a banbanag, nga adda maysa a nangibaga kenni Jose, “Kitaem, masakit ti amam.” Isu nga intugotna dagiti dua nga annakna, a da Manases ken Efraim.
Againe after this, one sayd to Ioseph, Loe, thy father is sicke: then hee tooke with him his two sonnes, Manasseh and Ephraim.
2 Idi nabagaan ni Jacob, “Kitaem, simmangpet ni Jose a putotmo a mangsarungkar kenka,” Pimmigsa ni Israel ket nagtugaw iti pagiddaan.
Also one told Iaakob, and said, Behold, thy sonne Ioseph is come to thee, and Israel tooke his strength vnto him and sate vpon the bed.
3 Kinuna ni Jacob kenni Jose, “Nagparang kaniak ti Dios a Mannakabalin-amin idiay Luz iti daga ti Canaan. Binendisionannak
Then Iaakob sayde vnto Ioseph, God almightie appeared vnto me at Luz in the land of Canaan, and blessed me.
4 a kinunana kaniak, 'Kitaem, pagbalinenkanto a nabunga, ken paaduenkanto. Pagbalinenkanto a pagtaudan dagiti nasnasion. Itedkonto daytoy a daga kadagiti kaputotam kas agnanayon a sanikuada.’
And he sayde vnto me, Behold, I wil make thee fruitefull, and will multiplie thee, and will make a great number of people of thee, and will giue this lande vnto thy seede after thee for an euerlasting possession.
5 Ket ita, dagiti dua a putotmo, a naiyanak kenka iti daga ti Egipto sakbay nga immayak kenka iti Egipto, ket kukuak. Kukuakto da Efraim ken Manases, a kas kada Ruben ken Simeon a kukuak metlaeng.
And now thy two sonnes, Manasseh and Ephraim, which are borne vnto thee in the lande of Egypt, before I came to thee into Egypt, shall be mine, as Reuben and Simeon are mine.
6 Kukuamto dagiti annak a maadda kenka kalpasanda; mailistadanto kadagiti nagan dagiti kakabsatda iti tawidda.
But the linage, which thou hast begotten after them, shalbe thine: they shall be called after the names of their brethren in their inheritance.
7 Ngem no maipapan kaniak, bayat nga agdaldaliasatak manipud idiay Padan, nagladingitak gapu iti pannakatay ni Raquel iti dalan iti daga ti Canaan, kabayatan nga adayokami pay laeng iti Efrata. Intabonko isuna sadiay iti dalan a mapan ti Efrata (dayta ket Betlehem).”
Nowe when I came from Padan, Rahel died vpon mine hande in the lande of Canaan, by the way when there was but halfe a dayes iourney of grounde to come to Ephrath: and I buryed her there in the way to Ephrath: the same is Beth-lehem.
8 Idi nakita ni Israel dagiti annak ni Jose, kinunana, “Siasino dagitoy?”
Then Israel beheld Iosephs sonnes and sayd, Whose are these?
9 Kinuna ni Jose iti amana, “Putotko ida, inted ida ti Dios kaniak ditoy.” Kinuna ni Israel, “Iyegmo ida kaniak, tapno mabendisionak ida.”
And Ioseph sayd vnto his father, They are my sonnes, which God hath giuen mee here. Then he sayd, I pray thee, bring them to me, that I may blesse them:
10 Ita, kumapuyen dagiti mata ni Israel gapu iti kinalakayna, isu a saanen a makakita. Isu nga inyasideg ida ni Jose kenkuana, ket inagkan ken inarakupna ida.
(For the eyes of Israel were dimme for age, so that hee coulde not well see) Then he caused them to come to him, and he kissed them and embraced them.
11 Kinuna ni Israel kenni Jose, “Saanko a pulos a ninamnama a makitak manen ti rupam, ngem impalubos pay kaniak ti Dios a makitak dagiti annakmo.”
And Israel sayde vnto Ioseph, I had not thought to haue seene thy face: yet lo, God hath shewed me also thy seede.
12 Impan ida ni Jose iti nagbaetan dagiti tumeng ni Israel, ket kalpasanna nagparintumeng nga indumogna ti rupana iti daga.
And Ioseph tooke them away from his knees, and did reuerence downe to the ground.
13 Innala ni Jose dagiti dua, ni Efraim iti makannawanna a makannigid ni Israel, ken ni Manases iti makannigidna a makannawan ni Israel, ket inyasidegna ida kenkuana.
Then tooke Ioseph them both, Ephraim in his right hand towarde Israels left hand, and Manasseh in his left hand toward Israels right hand, so he brought them vnto him.
14 Inggaw-at ni Israel ti kannawan nga imana ken impatayna iti ulo ni Efraim, nga inaudi, ken ti kannigid nga imana iti ulo ni Manases. Pinagkurosna dagiti imana, ta ni Manases ti inauna.
But Israel stretched out his right hand, and layde it on Ephraims head, which was the yonger, and his left hande vpon Manassehs head (directing his handes of purpose) for Manasseh was the elder.
15 Binendisionan ni Israel ni Jose, a kunana, “Ti Dios a nagtultulnogan dagiti ammak a ni Abraham ken ni Isaac, ti Dios a nangay-aywan kaniak inggana ita nga aldaw,
Also he blessed Ioseph and sayde, The God, before whom my fathers Abraham and Izhak did walke, the God, which hath fed me al my life long vnto this day, blesse thee.
16 ti anghel a nangsalsalaknib kaniak manipud iti amin a peggad, bendisionanna koma dagitoy nga ubbing. Maipanagan koma ti naganko kadakuada, ken ti nagan dagiti ammak a da Abraham ken Isaac. Umaduda koma iti rabaw ti daga.”
The Angel, which hath deliuered me from all euill, blesse the children, and let my name be named vpon them, and the name of my fathers Abraham and Izhak, that they may growe as fish into a multitude in the middes of the earth.
17 Idi nakita ni Jose nga impatay ti amana ti kannawan nga imana iti ulo ni Efraim, saanna a nagustuan daytoy. Innalana ti ima ti amana tapno iyakarna manipud iti ulo ni Efraim ket inturongna iti ulo ni Manases.
But when Ioseph sawe that his father layde his right hande vpon the head of Ephraim, it displeased him: and he stayed his fathers hand to remooue it from Ephraims head to Manassehs head.
18 Kinuna ni Jose iti amana, “Saan a kasta, amak; ta daytoy ti inauna. Ipataymo ti kannawan nga imam iti ulona.”
And Ioseph sayde vnto his father, Not so, my father, for this is the eldest: put thy right hand vpon his head.
19 Nagkedked ti amana a kinunana, “Ammok, anakko, ammok. Agbalinto met isuna nga adu a tattao, ken agbalinto met a natan-ok. Ngem natantan-okto ti inaudi a kabsatna ngem isuna, ken agbalinto nga adu a nasion dagiti kaputotanna.”
But his father refused, and sayd, I know well, my sonne, I know well: he shalbe also a people, and he shalbe great likewise: but his yonger brother shalbe greater then he, and his seede shall be full of nations.
20 Binendisionan ida ni Israel iti dayta nga aldaw babaen kadagitoy a sasao, “Iwaragawagto dagiti tattao ti Israel dagiti bendision babaen kadagiti naganyo a kunada, “Pagbalinennakayo koma ti Dios a kas kenni Efraim, ken kas kenni Manases'.” Iti kastoy a wagas, pinagbalin ni Israel nga imun-una ni Efraim ngem ni Manases.
So he blessed them that day, and sayde, In thee Israel shall blesse, and say, God make thee as Ephraim and as Manasseh. and he set Ephraim before Manasseh.
21 Kinuna ni Israel kenni Jose, “Kitaem, dandaniakon matay, ngem addanto ti Dios kenka, ket isublinakanto iti daga dagiti amam.
Then Israel said vnto Ioseph, Behold, I die, and God shall be with you, and bring you againe vnto the land of your fathers.
22 Kenka, kas nangatngato ngem kadagiti kakabsatmo, itedko ti naanduyas a bantay nga innalak manipud kadagiti Amorreo babaen iti kampilan ken pana.”
Moreouer, I haue giuen vnto thee one portion aboue thy brethren, which I gate out of the hand of the Amorite by my sworde and by my bowe.
