Genesis 37
1 At tumahan si Jacob sa lupaing pinangibahang lupain ng kaniyang ama, sa lupain ng Canaan.
And Jacob lived in the land where his father sojourned, in the land of Chanaan.
2 Ito ang lahi ni Jacob. Si Jose, na may labing pitong taon, ay nagpapastol ng kawan na kasama ng kaniyang mga kapatid; at siya'y batang kasamahan ng mga anak ni Bilha at ng mga anak ni Zilpa, na mga asawa ng kaniyang ama; at ibinalita ni Jose sa kanilang ama ang kasamaan nila.
And these are the generations of Jacob. And Joseph was seventeen years old, feeding the sheep of his father with his brethren, being young; with the sons of Balla, and with the sons of Zelpha, the wives of his father; and Joseph brought to Israel their father their evil reproach.
3 Minamahal nga ni Israel si Jose ng higit kay sa lahat niyang anak, sapagka't siya ang anak ng kaniyang katandaan: at siya'y iginawa ng isang tunika na may sarisaring kulay.
And Jacob loved Joseph more than all his sons, because he was to him the son of old age; and he made for him a coat of many colours.
4 At nakita ng kaniyang mga kapatid na siya'y minamahal ng kanilang ama ng higit kay sa lahat niyang kapatid; at siya'y kinapootan, at hindi nila mapagsalitaan siya ng payapa.
And his brethren having seen that his father loved him more than all his sons, hated him, and could not speak anything peaceful to him.
5 At nanaginip si Jose ng isang panaginip, at isinaysay sa kaniyang mga kapatid: at lalo pa nilang kinapootan siya.
And Joseph dreamt a dream, and reported it to his brethren.
6 At sinabi niya sa kanila. Pakinggan ninyo, ipinamamanhik ko sa inyo, itong panaginip na aking napanaginip:
And he said to them, Hear this dream which I have dreamt.
7 Sapagka't, narito, tayo'y nagtatali ng mga bigkis ng trigo sa bukid, at, narito, na tumindig ang aking bigkis, at tumuwid din naman at, narito, ang inyong mga bigkis ay napasa palibot at yumukod sa aking bigkis.
I thought you were binding sheaves in the middle of the field, and my sheaf stood up and was erected, and your sheaves turned round, and did obeisance to my sheaf.
8 At sa kaniya'y sinabi ng kaniyang mga kapatid, Maghahari ka ba sa amin? o papapanginoon ka sa amin? At lalo pa siyang kinapootan nila dahil sa kaniyang mga panaginip at sa kaniyang mga salita.
And his brethren said to him, Shall you indeed reign over us, or shall you indeed be lord over us? And they hated him still more for his dreams and for his words.
9 At siya'y nanaginip pa ng ibang panaginip, at isinaysay sa kaniyang mga kapatid, at sinabi, Narito, ako'y nanaginip pa ng isang panaginip; at narito, na ang araw, at ang buwan at ang labing isang bituin ay yumukod sa akin.
And he dreamt another dream, and related it to his father, and to his brethren, and said, Behold, I have dreamt another dream: as it were the sun, and the moon, and the eleven stars did me reverence.
10 At kaniyang isinaysay sa kaniyang ama at sa kaniyang mga kapatid; at sinaway siya ng kaniyang ama, at sa kaniya'y sinabi, Anong panaginip itong iyong napanaginip? Tunay bang ako at ang iyong ina at ang iyong mga kapatid ay yuyukod sa lupa sa harap mo?
And his father rebuked him, and said to him, What is this dream which you have dreamt? shall indeed both I and your mother and your brethren come and bow before you to the earth?
11 At ang kaniyang mga kapatid ay nainggit sa kaniya: datapuwa't iningatan ng kaniyang ama ang salita sa pagiisip.
And his brethren envied him; but his father observed the saying.
12 At yumaon ang kaniyang mga kapatid upang magpastol ng kawan ng kanilang ama, sa Sichem.
And his brethren went to feed the sheep of their father to Sychem.
13 At sinabi ni Israel kay Jose, Di ba nagpapastol ng kawan sa Sichem ang iyong mga kapatid? Halika, at uutusan kita sa kanila. At sinabi niya sa kaniya, Narito ako.
And Israel said to Joseph, Do not your brethren feed their flock in Sychem? Come, I will send you to them; and he said to him, Behold, I [am here].
14 At kaniyang sinabi sa kaniya, Yumaon ka, tingnan mo kung mabuti ang lagay ng iyong mga kapatid, at kung mabuti ang lagay ng kawan; at balitaan mo ako. Gayon sinugo siya mula sa libis ng Hebron, at siya'y naparoon sa Sichem.
And Israel said to him, Go and see if your brethren and the sheep are well, and bring me word; and he sent him out of the valley of Chebron, and he came to Sychem.
15 At nasumpungan siya ng isang tao, at, narito, na siya'y naggagala sa parang; at siya'y tinanong ng taong yaon, na sinasabi, Anong hinahanap mo?
And a man found him wandering in the field; and the man asked him, saying, What seek you?
16 At kaniyang sinabi, Hinahanap ko ang aking mga kapatid; ipinamamanhik ko sa iyo na sabihin mo sa akin kung saan sila nagpapastol.
And he said, I am seeking my brethren; tell me where they feed [their flocks].
17 At sinabi ng tao, Nagsialis na sila: sapagka't narinig kong kanilang sinabi, Tayo na sa Dotan. At sinundan ni Jose ang kaniyang mga kapatid, at nasumpungan niya sila sa Dotan.
And the man said to him, They have departed hence, for I heard them saying, Let us go to Dothaim; and Joseph went after his brethren, and found them in Dothaim.
18 At kanilang natanawan siya sa malayo, at bago nakalapit sa kanila ay nagbanta sila laban sa kaniya na siya'y patayin.
And they spied him from a distance before he drew near to them, and they wickedly took counsel to kill him.
19 At nagsangusapan, Narito, dumarating itong mapanaginipin.
And each said to his brother, Behold, that dreamer comes.
20 Halikayo ngayon, siya'y ating patayin, at siya'y ating itapon sa isa sa mga balon, at ating sasabihin, Sinakmal siya ng isang masamang hayop: at ating makikita kung anong mangyayari sa kaniyang mga panaginip.
Now then come, let us kill him, and cast him into one of the pits; and we will say, An evil wild beast has devoured him; and we shall see what his dreams will be.
21 At narinig ni Ruben, at iniligtas siya sa kanilang kamay; at sinabi, Huwag nating kitlin ang kaniyang buhay.
And Ruben having heard it, rescued him out of their hands, and said, Let us not kill him.
22 At sinabi ni Ruben sa kanila, Huwag kayong magbubo ng dugo; itapon ninyo sa balong ito na nasa ilang, datapuwa't huwag ninyong pagbuhatan ng kamay; upang iligtas sa kanilang kamay ng mapabalik sa kaniyang ama.
And Ruben said to them, Shed not blood; cast him into one of these pits in the wilderness, but do not lay [your] hands upon him; that he might rescue him out of their hands, and restore him to his father.
23 At nangyari, nang dumating si Jose sa kaniyang mga kapatid, na hinubdan siya ng kaniyang tunika, ng tunikang may sarisaring kulay na kaniyang suot;
And it came to pass, when Joseph came to his brethren, that they stripped Joseph of his many-coloured coat that was upon him.
24 At kanilang sinunggaban, at kanilang itinapon sa balon: at ang balon ay tuyo, walang tubig.
And they took him and cast him into the pit; and the pit was empty, it had not water.
25 At nagsiupo upang kumain ng tinapay, at kanilang itiningin ang kanilang mga mata at tumingin sila, at, narito, ang isang pulutong na mga Ismaelita na nagsisipanggaling sa Gilead sangpu ng kanilang mga kamelyo at may dalang mga pabango, at mga balsamo, at mga mirra, na kanilang dadalhin sa Egipto.
And they sat down to eat bread; and having lifted up their eyes they saw, and behold, Ismaelitish travellers came from Galaad, and their camels were heavily loaded with spices, and resin, and myrrh; and they went to bring them to Egypt.
26 At sinabi ni Juda sa kaniyang mga kapatid. Anong ating mapapakinabang kung ating patayin ang ating kapatid, at ilihim ang kaniyang dugo?
And Judas said to his brethren, What profit is it if we kill our brother, and conceal his blood?
27 Halikayo, at atin siyang ipagbili sa mga Ismaelita, at huwag natin siyang pagbuhatan ng kamay; sapagka't siya'y ating kapatid, atin din laman. At dininig siya ng kaniyang mga kapatid.
Come, let us sell him to these Ismaelites, but let not our hands be upon him, because he is our brother and our flesh; and his brethren listened.
28 At nagsisipagdaan ang mga mangangalakal na mga Midianita; at kanilang isinampa si Jose sa balon, at ipinagbili nila si Jose sa mga Ismaelita ng dalawang pung putol na pilak. At dinala si Jose sa Egipto.
And the men, the merchants of Madian, went by, and they drew and lifted Joseph out of the pit, and sold Joseph to the Ismaelites for twenty pieces of gold; and they brought Joseph down into Egypt.
29 At nagbalik si Ruben sa balon; at, narito, na si Jose ay wala sa balon; at kaniyang hinapak ang kaniyang mga suot.
And Ruben returned to the pit, and sees not Joseph in the pit; and he tore his garments.
30 At siya'y nagbalik sa kaniyang mga kapatid, at kaniyang sinabi, Wala ang bata; at ako, saan ako paroroon?
And he returned to his brethren and said, The boy is not; and I, whither am I yet to go?
31 At kanilang kinuha ang tunika ni Jose, at sila'y pumatay ng isang lalaking kambing, at kanilang inilubog ang tunika sa dugo:
And having taken the coat of Joseph, they killed a kid of the goats, and stained the coat with the blood.
32 At kanilang ipinadala ang tunikang may sarisaring kulay, at dinala sa kanilang ama; at kanilang sinabi, Ito'y aming nasumpungan: kilalanin mo ngayon, kung tunika ng iyong anak o hindi.
And they sent the coat of many colours; and they brought it to their father, and said, This have we found; know if it be your son's coat or no. And he recognised it, and said, It is my son's coat, an evil wild beast has devoured him; a wild beast has carried off Joseph.
33 At kaniyang kinilala, at sinabi, Siya ngang tunika ng aking anak; sinakmal siya ng isang masamang hayop; si Jose ay walang pagsalang nilapa.
34 At hinapak ni Jacob ang kaniyang mga suot, at kaniyang nilagyan ng magaspang na damit ang kaniyang mga balakang, at tinangisang maraming araw ang kaniyang anak.
And Jacob tore his clothes, and put sackcloth on his loins, and mourned for his son many days.
35 At nagsitindig ang lahat niyang mga anak na lalake at babae upang siya'y aliwin; datapuwa't tumanggi siyang maaliw; at kaniyang sinabi, Sapagka't lulusong akong tumatangis sa aking anak hanggang sa Sheol. At tinangisan siya ng kaniyang ama. (Sheol h7585)
And all his sons and his daughters gathered themselves together, and came to comfort him; but he would not be comforted, saying, I will go down to my son mourning to Hades; and his father wept for him. (Sheol h7585)
36 At ipinagbili siya ng mga Midianita sa Egipto kay Potiphar, puno ni Faraon, na kapitan ng bantay.
And the Madianites sold Joseph into Egypt; to Petephres, the eunuch of Pharao, captain of the guard.
