Genesisy 37
1 Nitoetse an-tane Kanàne nañialoan-drae’e ao t’Iakòbe.
And Jacob dwelt in the land wherein his father was a stranger, in the land of Canaan.
2 Ie ty talili’ ty hasavereña’ Iakòbe. Ie nifolo-tao-fito-amby t’Iosefe le niarake añondry mindre amo rahalahi’eo, ie mbe niajalahy naho nindre amo ana’ i Bilhae naho amo ana’ i Zilpae, valin-drae’eo, vaho ninday talily raty iareo aman-drae’e añe t’Iosefe.
These are the generations of Jacob. Joseph, being seventeen years old, was feeding the flock with his brethren; and the lad was with the sons of Bilhah, and with the sons of Zilpah, his father's wives: and Joseph brought unto his father their evil report.
3 Nikokoa’ Israele mandikoatse o ana’e iabio t’Iosefe, amy t’ie ty ana’ i haantera’ey vaho namboara’e saroñe lava soa vahotse.
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 Ie nioni’ o rahalahi’eo te nisohen-drae’e mandikoatse iareo le nalaim-bintañe aze vaho tsy nahafirehak’ am-panintsiñañe ama’e.
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 Teo te nañinofy t’Iosefe, le natalili’e amo rahalahi’eo, f’ie nañìndra ty falai’ iareo aze.
And Joseph dreamed a dream, and he told it his brethren: and they hated him yet the more.
6 Hoe ty asa’e ama’e, Ehe janjiño ty nofy ninofiseko toy.
And he said unto them, Hear, I pray you, this dream which I have dreamed:
7 Teo tika namehe taho an-tetek’ ao. Nitroatse amy zao i fehekoy le niadaoro eo, le ingo niariseho ahy ey ty fehe’ areo nibokok’ amy fehe-tahokoy.
For, behold, we were binding sheaves in the field, and, lo, my sheaf arose, and also stood upright; and, behold, your sheaves stood round about, and made reverence to my sheaf.
8 Hoe o rahalahi’eo ama’e, Toe ihe hao ty hamelek’ anay? Vata’e hifehe anay v’iheo? Aa le niindra ty falaim-binta’ iareo ty amo nofi’eo naho o asa’eo.
And his brethren said to him, Shall you indeed reign over us? or shall you indeed have dominion over us? And they hated him yet the more for his dreams, and for his words.
9 Nañinofy indraike, vaho natalili’e amo rahalahi’eo. Inao ty nofiko tovo’e: naheoko te nibotrek’ amako i àndroy, i volañey vaho ty vasiañe folo raik’amby.
And he dreamed yet another dream, and told it his brethren, and said, Behold, I have dreamed a dream more; and, behold, the sun and the moon and the eleven stars made reverence to me.
10 Aa ie natalili’e aman-drae’e naho amo rahalahi’eo le nañendak’ aze ty rae’e ami’ty hoe: Nofy manao akore o nofise’oo? Toe hene hidrakadrakak’ an-tane ama’o hao zahay naho i rene’o vaho o rahalahi’oo?
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 you have dreamed? Shall I and your mother and your brethren indeed come to bow down ourselves to you to the earth?
11 Aa le nitsikirìk’ aze o rahalahi’eo, fe nitsakorèn-drae’e i asa’ey.
And his brethren envied him; but his father observed the saying.
12 Nañavelo mb’e Sikeme añe o rahalahi’eo hampiandrazeñe i lia-rain-drae’ey.
And his brethren went to feed their father's flock in Shechem.
13 Le hoe t’Israele am’Iosefe, Tsy miarake i lia-raikey e Sikeme añe hao o rahalahi’oo? Antao arè, hiraheko mb’am’iereo mb’eo. Tinoi’e ty hoe, Intoy raho.
And Israel said unto Joseph, Do not your brethren feed the flock in Shechem? come, and I will send you unto them. And he said to him, Here am I.
14 Aa le hoe re ama’e, Akia, sario ke mbe soa avao iereo naho mbe soa ka o mpirai-liao; le mibaliha mb’amako mb’etoa aman-talily. Aa le nampihitrife’e mb’eo boak’ am-bavatane’ i Khebrone ao mb’e Sikeme mb’eo,
And he said to him, Go, I pray you, see whether it be well with your brethren, and well with the flocks; and bring me word again. So he sent him out of the vale of Hebron, and he came to Shechem.
15 le teo ty ondaty nanjo aze nirererere an-kivok’ ey, vaho nañontanea’ indatiy, Ino ty paia’o.
And a certain man found him, and, behold, he was wandering in the field: and the man asked him, saying, What seek you?
16 Mipay o rahalahikoo ‘ni-raho, hoe re, Ehe, ampahafohino ahy ty fiandraza’ iareo añondry.
And he said, I seek my brethren: tell me, I pray you, where they feed their flocks.
17 Hoe indatiy, Fa nienga iereo, Inao ty tsinanoko am’ iereo, Antao ho mb’e Dotane mb’eo. Aa le nihitrike mb’ amo rahalahi’eo re vaho tendrek’ am’iereo e Dotane añe.
And the man said, They are departed behind; for I heard them say, Let us go to Dothan. And Joseph went after his brethren, and found them in Dothan.
18 Nitalakese’ iereo, le ie mbe tsy marine ro nikilily hañohofan-doza ama’e.
And when they saw him far off, even before he came near unto them, they conspired against him to slay him.
19 Hoe ty vesoveso’ iareo, Hehe, mb’etoa i mpañinofiy,
And they said one to another, Behold, this dreamer comes.
20 antao arè hamono aze naho hagodon-tika an-kadaha ao; naho hatalilin-tika te nabotse’ ty biby romotse, vaho ho onin-tika ty figadoña’ o nofi’eo.
Come now therefore, and let us slay him, and cast him into some pit, and we will say, Some evil beast has devoured him: and we shall see what will become of his dreams.
21 F’ie jinanji’ i Reòbene, le navotso’e am-pità’ iareo ami’ty hoe, Tsy hamitak’ ate aze tika.
And Reuben heard it, and he delivered him out of their hands; and said, Let us not kill him.
22 Tinovo’ i Reòbene am’iereo ty hoe, Ko mampiori-dio; afetsaho an-kadaha an-jerezere tane atoy, fa ko mipao-tañañe ama’e—ie te hamotsotse aze am-pità’ iareo hampolia’e aman-drae’e.
And Reuben said unto them, Shed no blood, but cast him into this pit that is in the wilderness, and lay no hand upon him; that he might rid him out of their hands, to deliver him to his father again.
23 Aa naho pok’ amo rahalahi’eo t’Iosefe, le hinalo’ iareo am’ Iosefe i saro’ey, i saroñe lava ama’ey,
And it came to pass, when Joseph was come unto his brethren, that they stripped Joseph out of his coat, his coat of many colours that was on him;
24 le rinambe’ iereo vaho nafetsa’ iereo an-kadaha ao. Nikapaike i kadahay, tsy aman-drano.
And they took him, and cast him into a pit: and the pit was empty, there was no water in it.
25 Niambesatse amy zao iereo nikama; fa ie nampiandra fihaino le nahaisake lia-rain-te-Iesmaèle nangovovòke boak’ e Gileade añe an-drameva ninday fisomantsaike naho fihosotse vaho lite, nizotso mb’e Mitsraime mb’eo.
And they sat down to eat bread: and they lifted up their eyes and looked, and, behold, a company of Ishmeelites came from Gilead with their camels bearing spices and balm and myrrh, going to carry it down to Egypt.
26 Le hoe t’Ièhodà amo rahalahi’eo, Ino ty tombo’e ho an-tika te vonoeñe i rahalahin-tikañey naho etaheñe i lio’ey?
And Judah said unto his brethren, What profit is it if we slay our brother, and conceal his blood?
27 Antao handetak’ aze amo nte-Iesmaèleo le tsy hampidoñan-tañantika, amy te rahalahintika, toe nofon-tikañe. Le nihaoñe’ o rahalahi’eo.
Come, and let us sell him to the Ishmeelites, and let not our hand be upon him; for he is our brother and our flesh. And his brethren were content.
28 Ie nim-beo o mpanao takinake nte-Midianeo le tinari’ iereo, nañakatse Iosefe amy kadahay vaho naleta’ iereo volafoty roapolo amo nte-Iesmaèleo vaho nendese’ iareo mb’e Mitsraime añe t’Iosefe.
Then there passed by Midianites merchantmen; and they drew and lifted up Joseph out of the pit, and sold Joseph to the Ishmeelites for twenty pieces of silver: and they brought Joseph into Egypt.
29 Nibalike mb’amy kadahay mb’eo t’i Reòbene naho naheo’e te tsy an-kadaha ao t’Iosefe, vaho rinia’e o saro’eo.
And Reuben returned unto the pit; and, behold, Joseph was not in the pit; and he rent his clothes.
30 Nivalike mb’amo rahalahi’eo re nanao ty hoe, Tsy eo i ajalahiy, le zaho! aia ty hombako?
And he returned unto his brethren, and said, The child is not; and I, where shall I go?
31 Aa le rinambe’ iareo i saro’ey, le nandenta vik’ose, vaho nalo’ iareo ami’ty lio’e ao i saroñey.
And they took Joseph's coat, and killed a kid of the goats, and dipped the coat in the blood;
32 Nahitrik’ añe i saro-vinahotsey, naho nendese’ iareo aman-drae’e ami’ty hoe, Ingo ty nizoe’ay, ehe vazoho ke ie i saron’ ana’oy, ke tsie.
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 be your son's coat or no.
33 Napota’e, le nanao ty hoe, Saron’ anako toy! Navorembore’ ty biby hako, tsy mikalafo te rinomidromitse t’Iosefe.
And he knew it, and said, It is my son's coat; an evil beast has devoured him; Joseph is without doubt rent in pieces.
34 Rinia’ Iakòbe amy zao o saro’eo naho nisadia gony vaho nandala i ana-dahi’ey andro maro.
And Jacob rent his clothes, and put sackcloth upon his loins, and mourned for his son many days.
35 Hene niongake hañohoñe aze o ana-dahi’eo naho o anak’ ampela’e iabio, f’ie nifoneñe tsy hohoñeñe, ami’ty hoe, Aiy, hizotso mb’an-tsikeokeoke mb’ aman’ ana-dahiko raho an-kontoke. Zay ty fangoihoian-drae’e aze; (Sheol h7585)
And all his sons and all his daughters rose up to comfort him; but he refused to be comforted; and he said, For I will go down into the grave unto my son mourning. Thus his father wept for him. (Sheol h7585)
36 Toe naleta’ o nte-Midianeo e Mitsraime añe re, amy Potifare, roandria’ i Parò, talèm-pigaritse.
And the Midianites sold him into Egypt unto Potiphar, an officer of Pharaoh's, and captain of the guard.
