Jenesis 37
1 Menina Jekopu'a agri nefa zoka mani'neno hu'nea mopare Kenani mani'ne.
And Jacob dwelt in the land where his father sojourned — in the land of Canaan.
2 Ama'i Jekopu naga nofimofo naneke. Josefe'a 17ni'a zagegafu nehuno, nehaza ne' mani'neno nefu'zane afutami kegava hu'ne. Bilhane, Zilpagizni nefa a'tremokizini mofavre'mozane kegava hu'naze. Josefe'a nefu'za havizama nehazankea erino nezmafana ome asami'ne.
These are the generations of Jacob. Joseph, being seventeen years old, fed the flock with his brethren; and he was doing service with the sons of Bilhah, and with the sons of Zilpah, his father's wives. And Joseph brought to his father an evil report of them.
3 Hagi Israeli'a (Jekopu'a) miko ne'mofavre'afintira, Josefena tusiza huno avesinte'ne. Na'ankure agra ravusefinka ante'neankino, agra avasese'ane kena tro huno antaninte'ne.
And Israel loved Joseph more than all his sons, because he was son of his old age; and he made him a vest of many colours.
4 Ana hige'za Josefe nefu'za, kazama nezmafa'ma tusiza huno agri'ma avesinentege'za nege'za, zamagra avesi nonte'za knare hu'za fru keaga huomi'naze.
And his brethren saw that their father loved him more than all his brethren, and they hated him, and could not greet him with friendliness.
5 Hagi mago kenagera Josefe'a ava'na keteno, afuhe'mokizmi ana avana kea zamasmige'za, zamagra mago'ene tusiza hu'za zamarimpa ahente'naze.
And Joseph dreamed a dream, and told [it] to his brethren, and they hated him yet the more.
6 Josefe'a amanage huno zamasami'ne, Muse (plis) hurmantoanki ava'nama ke'noa zamofo nanekea antahiho,
And he said to them, Hear, I pray you, this dream, which I have dreamt:
7 hozafi witi ananekunkeno nagri witimo'a oti fatgo higeno, tamagri witimo'za regagi'za, nagri witirera kepri hu'naze.
Behold, we were binding sheaves in the fields, and lo, my sheaf rose up, and remained standing; and behold, your sheaves came round about and bowed down to my sheaf.
8 Anante nefu'za amanage hu'za antahige'naze, tagrira tagaterenka kagra kini mani'za nehano. Tamage hunka kegava hurante'za nehano, nehu'za mago'ene zamasigu hunente'za, agri avana kene, ke'anena ontahi'naze.
And his brethren said to him, Wilt thou indeed be a king over us? wilt thou indeed rule over us? And they hated him yet the more for his dreams and for his words.
9 Anante mago'ene ava'na keteno afuhe'i amanage huno zamasami'ne, Antahiho, mago'ene ava'nagoana, zagene, ikane, 11ni'a ofumo'za nagrite kepri hunante'naze.
And he dreamed yet another dream, and told it to his brethren, and said, Behold, I have dreamt another dream, and behold, the sun and the moon and eleven stars bowed down to me.
10 Josefe'a anage huno nefane, afuhe'inena nezmasmigeno, nafa'amo'a amanage huno kesune, Kagra nankna ava'na negane? Nagrane, negrera'ene negafu'zanena tamage huta kagrite kepri hugahuno?
And he told [it] to his father and to his brethren. And his father rebuked him, and said to him, What is this dream which thou hast dreamt? Shall we indeed come, I and thy mother and thy brethren, to bow down ourselves to thee to the earth?
11 Agri afuhe'za amefi'a ke hunte'nazanagi, nefa'a hakare'a nanekea antahi antahifi atre'ne.
And his brethren envied him; but his father kept the saying.
12 Mago'zupa agri nefu'za, nezmafa afutami avre'za traza nehogu Sekemu vu'nazageno,
And his brethren went to feed their father's flock at Shechem.
13 Israeli'a amanage huno Josefena asami'ne, Negafu'za afuzaga zamavare'za Sekemu traza me'nerega ome zamante'za mani'nazanki ege'na, huganta'nena vuo. Higeno Josefe'a amanage huno kenona hu'ne, Nagra vugahue.
And Israel said to Joseph, Do not thy brethren feed [the flock] at Shechem? Come, that I may send thee to them. And he said to him, Here am I.
14 Higeno nefa'a amanage huno Josefena asmi'ne, Menina vunka negafuzane, afuzaganena knare hu'za mani'nafi ome ketenka, ete enka kea eme nasmio. Anage nehuno huntegeno Hebroni agupofinti vuno Sekemu uhanati'ne.
And he said to him, Go, I pray thee, see after the welfare of thy brethren, and after the welfare of the flock; and bring me word again. And he sent him out of the vale of Hebron; and he came towards Shechem.
15 Anantega ome hakeno vano nehigeno mago ne'mo anampi negeno anage huno antahige'ne, na'anku kagra nehakrane?
And a man found him, and behold, he was wandering in the country; and the man asked him, saying, What seekest thou?
16 Higeno Josefe'a anage hu'ne, Nagra nafuhemokizmigu nehakroanki, muse (plis) hugantoanki inantega afu'zmia kegava hu'za mani'nafi nasmio?
And he said, I am seeking my brethren: tell me, I pray thee, where they feed [their flocks].
17 Higeno ana ne'mo'a anage huno asamine, Amafinti atre'za vunaku nehu'za, Dotani vanune nehazage'na antahi'noe. Higeno Josefe'a zamage zamavaririno vuno afuhe'ina Dotani ome zamageno erifore hu'ne.
And the man said, They have removed from this; for I heard them say, Let us go to Dothan. And Joseph went after his brethren, and found them at Dothan.
18 Hagi Josefe'a afete ne-eno eravao osu'nege'za afuhe'za nege'za, ahe frigahune hu'za kea retro hu'naze.
And when they saw him from afar, and before he came near to them, they conspired against him to put him to death.
19 Zamagra zamagra ke hugantugama hu'za amanage hu'naze, ava'na kege nera antu e!
And they said one to another, Behold, there comes that dreamer!
20 Hanki menina enketa aheta keri kampi mate'vuta nevazita, amanage hugahune. Afi zagamo aheno ne'ne, nehuta avana ke'amo'a inankna hugahifi kesune!
And now come and let us kill him, and cast him into one of the pits, and we will say, An evil beast has devoured him; and we will see what becomes of his dreams.
21 Ana hianagi Rubeni'a ana naneke nentahino, aza hunaku anage hu'ne, atrenketa ahe ofrisanune.
And Reuben heard [it], and delivered him out of their hand, and said, Let us not take his life.
22 Rubeni'a mago'ene amanage huno zamagrira zamasami'ne, Aheta korana eri oragi'sunanki, amima ka'ma kopima me'nea kerifi oheta avre vazisanune. Ana hanageno agra aza huno avreno nefa ome amisigu hu'ne.
And Reuben said to them, Shed no blood: cast him into this pit which is in the wilderness; but lay no hand upon him — in order that he might deliver him out of their hand, to bring him to his father again.
23 Hanki Josefe'ma eno afuhe'inte'ma ehanatige'za, zamagra azeriza, knare avasese'ane za'za kena nefa'ma antaninte'neana zafi netre'za,
And it came to pass when Joseph came to his brethren, that they stripped Joseph of his vest, the vest of many colours, which he had on;
24 zamagra azeri'za tinkeri kampi matevu atre'naze. Ana kerifina tina omnene.
and they took him and cast him into the pit; now the pit was empty — there was no water in it.
25 Ana hute'za, zamagra mani'ne'za ne'za nenaku nehu'za, kesga hu'za zamavua kazana, avazu hunte'za Ismaeli vahe'mo'za Giliatiti ne-eza, kemorizmifi gamune, fukinkna masave tusa masave kregefe'neane (bam) mana'nentake'za mere'ne eri'za Isipi zagore ome atrenaku e'naze.
And they sat down to eat bread; and they lifted up their eyes and looked, and behold, a caravan of Ishmaelites came from Gilead; and their camels bore tragacanth, and balsam, and ladanum — going to carry [it] down to Egypt.
26 Juda'a amanage huno afuhe'mokizigura hu'ne, Neregnama aheta korama'a eri tagisuta nankna miza erigahune?
And Judah said to his brethren, What profit is it that we kill our brother and secrete his blood?
27 Agra tagri kora mani'negu ohesunanki, enketa Ismaeli vahete Josefena mizante atramneno. Hige'za nefu'za ana nanekere mago zamarimpa hu'naze.
Come and let us sell him to the Ishmaelites; but let not our hand be upon him; for he is our brother, our flesh. And his brethren hearkened [to him].
28 Anante mago'a Midiani vahe'mo'za, fenozama zagore'ma netre'za eneri'za nehaza vahe'mo'za anante neazageno, zamagra Josefena kerifinti avazuhu naga'atre'za Ismaeli vahete 20'a sekel silva zagore atre'naze. Ana hazage'za Josefena avre'za Isipi vu'naze.
And Midianitish men, merchants, passed by; and they drew and lifted up Joseph out of the pit, and sold Joseph to the Ishmaelites for twenty silver-pieces; and they brought Joseph to Egypt.
29 Rubeni'a keri avazare eno keana Josefe'a kerifi omani'negeno kukena'a sgane sagnu hu'ne.
And Reuben returned to the pit, and behold, Joseph [was] not in the pit; and he rent his garments,
30 Aganahe'inte agra uhanatino amanage hu'ne, Ana mofavre'a omani'ne. Hanki nagra inankna hugahue?
and returned to his brethren, and said, The child is not; and I, where shall I go?
31 Hige'za zamagra Josefe avasese'ane kena eri'za, ve meme ahe'za ana za'za kena'a korama'afi re'za ti'za hute'za,
And they took Joseph's vest, and slaughtered a buck of the goats, and dipped the vest in the blood;
32 anante ana avasese'ane za'za kena, mago'amo'za eri'za nezmafante uhanatiza anage hu'naze. Amama kefore'ma hu'na kena muse (plis) hugantonanki, kagri negamofo za'za kenafi ko.
and they sent the vest of many colours and had it carried to their father, and said, This have we found: discern now whether it is thy son's vest or not.
33 Hazageno keteno amanage hu'ne, Ama'i nagri ne'mofavremofo za'za kene. Afi zagagafamo aheno ne'ne, tamage huno Josefena amprino anitraga trogo hutre'negahie!
And he discerned it, and said, [It is] my son's vest! an evil beast has devoured him: Joseph is without doubt rent in pieces!
34 Anage nehuno Jekopu'a kukena'a braro bruru huno tanefa kateno kukena'are nefreno za'za kna ne'mofonkura huno zavira ate'ne.
And Jacob rent his clothes, and put sackcloth on his loins, and mourned for his son many days.
35 Ana hige'za mika ne'mofa'amo'za, oti'za azeri avavasenaku hu'nazanagi, azeri vava sezankura ave'osi'ne. Hagi agra amanage hu'ne, Nenamofonku zavi netena fri'na fri vahe kumapi umanigahue. Nehuno nefa'a zavi ate'ne. (Sheol h7585)
And all his sons and all his daughters rose up to comfort him, but he refused to be comforted, and said, For I will go down to my son into Sheol mourning. Thus his father wept for him. (Sheol h7585)
36 Hagi Midiani vahe'mo'za Isipi uhanati'za Josefena mizante atrazageno, Isipi ne' Fero avate kva ne' Potifa miza se'ne.
And the Midianites sold him into Egypt, to Potiphar, a chamberlain of Pharaoh, the captain of the life-guard.
