Genesis 37
1 Nanirahan si Jacob sa lupain kung saan naroon ang kanyang ama, sa lupain ng Canaan.
And Jacob dwelt in the land in which his father was a stranger, in the land of Canaan.
2 Ito ang mga pangyayari tungkol kay Jacob. Nang labimpitong taong gulang pa lang si Jose, nagbabantay siya ng kawan kasama ang kanyang mga kapatid. Kasama niya ang mga anak na lalaki ni Bilhah at mga anak na lalaki ni Zilpah, mga asawa nang kanyang ama. Nagdala si Jose ng hindi kanais-nais na balita tungkol sa kanila sa kanilang ama.
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 to his father their bad report.
3 Minahal ni Israel si Jose nang mas higit sa lahat ng kanyang anak na lalaki dahil siya ang anak niya sa katandaan. Ginawan siya nang isang magandang damit.
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 Nakita ng kanyang mga kapatid ang pagmamahal ng kanilang ama na mas higit kaysa sa lahat niyang kapatid na lalaki. Siya ay kinamuhian nila at hindi nakikipag-usap nang maayos.
And when his brethren saw that their father loved him more than all his brethren, they hated him, and could not speak peaceably to him.
5 Nanaginip si Jose ng isang panaginip, at sinabi niya sa kanyang mga kapatid ang tungkol dito. Lalo pa nila siyang kinamuhia.
And Joseph dreamed a dream, and he told it to his brethren: and they hated him yet the more.
6 Sinabi niya sa kanila, “Pakiusap makinig kayo sa panaginip na aking napanaginipan.
And he said to them, Hear, I pray you, this dream which I have dreamed:
7 Masdan ninyo, itinatali natin ang mga bigkis ng mga butil sa bukid at masdan ninyo, tumayo ang aking bigkis at tumuwid, at masdan ninyo, pumalibot ang inyong mga bigkis at yumuko sa aking bigkis.
For, behold, we were binding sheaves in the field, and, lo, my sheaf arose, and also stood upright; and, behold, your sheaves stood around, and made obeisance to my sheaf.
8 Sinabi sa kanya ng kanyang mga kapatid, “Magiging hari ka ba talaga namin? Mamumuno ka sa amin? “Lalo siyang kinamuhian dahil sa kanyang mga panaginip at sa kanyang mga salita.
And his brethren said to him, Shalt thou indeed reign over us? or shalt thou indeed have dominion over us? And they hated him yet the more for his dreams, and for his words.
9 Nanaginip siya ulit ng panaginip at sinabi niya ito sa kanyang mga kapatid. Sinabi niya, “Tingnan ninyo, nanaginip ako ng ibang panaginip: Ang araw at ang buwan at labing-isang bituin ay yumuko pababa sa akin.”
And he dreamed yet another dream, and told it to his brethren, and said, Behold, I have dreamed a dream more; and, behold, the sun and the moon and the eleven stars made obeisance to me.
10 Sinabi niya ito sa kanyang ama pati sa kanyang mga kapatid, at pinagsabihan siya ng kanyang ama. Sinabi niya sa kanya, “Ano itong panaginip na napaginipan mo? Talaga bang lalapit ang iyong ina, ako at ang mga kapatid mo para yumuko sa iyo sa lupa?”
And he told it to his father, and to his brethren: and his father rebuked him, and said to him, What is this dream that thou hast dreamed? Shall I and thy mother and thy brethren indeed come to bow down ourselves to thee to the earth?
11 Nainggit sa kanya ang kanyang mga kapatid, pero ang kanyang ama ay itinago ang bagay sa kanyang isip.
And his brethren envied him; but his father observed the saying.
12 Umalis ang mga kapatid ni Jose upang magpastol ng kawan ng kanilang ama sa Sechem.
And his brethren went to feed their father’s flock in Shechem.
13 Sinabi ni Jacob kay Jose, “Hindi ba nagpapastol ng kawan ang iyong mga kapatid sa Sechem? Halika, at ipapadala kita sa kanila.” Sinabi ni Jose sa kanya, “Nakahanda ako.”
And Israel said to Joseph, Do not thy brethren feed the flock in Shechem? come, and I will send thee to them. And he said to him, Here am I.
14 Sinabi niya sa kanya, “Umalis ka na ngayon, tingnan mo kung maayos ang mga kapatid mo at maayos ang mga kawan, at balitaan mo ako.” Kaya pinadala siya ni Jacob sa lambak ng Hebron, at nagpunta si Jose sa Sichem.
And he said to him, Go, I pray thee, see whether it is well with thy brethren, and well with the flocks; and bring me word again. So he sent him from the vale of Hebron, and he came to Shechem.
15 May isang taong nakakita kay Jose. Masdan mo, si Jose ay pagala-gala sa isang bukid. Tinanong siya ng isang lalaki, “Ano ang hinahanap mo?”
And a certain man found him, and, behold, he was wandering in the field: and the man asked him, saying, What seekest thou?
16 Sinabi ni Jose, “Hinahanap ko ang aking mga kapatid. Pakiusap, sabihin mo sa akin kung saan nila nagpapastol ang kawan.”
And he said, I seek my brethren: tell me, I pray thee, where they feed their flocks.
17 Sinabi ng lalaki, “Umalis na sila sa lugar na ito, narinig ko silang nagsabi na, “Pumunta tayo sa Dotan. Pinuntahan ni Jose ang kanyang mga kapatid at natagpuan sila sa Dotan.
And the man said, They have departed from here; for I heard them say, Let us go to Dothan. And Joseph went after his brethren, and found them in Dothan.
18 Nakita nila si Jose mula sa di kalayuan, at bago siya makalapit sa kanila, nakapagplano na sila laban sa kanya para patayin siya.
And when they saw him afar off, even before he came near to them, they conspired against him to slay him.
19 Sinabi ng kanyang mga kapatid sa bawat isa, “Tingnan niyo, Papalapit na ang taong mapanaginipin.
And they said one to another, Behold, this dreamer is coming.
20 Halikayo, kung ganon, patayin na natin siya at ihulog siya sa isa sa mga balon. Sabihin natin, 'Sinakmal siya ng isang mabangis na hayop.' Tingnan natin kung anong mangyayari sa kanyang mga panaginip.”
Come now therefore, and let us slay him, and cast him into some pit, and we will say, Some evil beast hath devoured him: and we shall see what will become of his dreams.
21 Narinig ito ni Reuben at iniligtas siya mula sa kanilang kamay. Sinabi niya, “Huwag nating kunin ang kanyang buhay.”
And Reuben heard it, and he delivered him from their hands; and said, Let us not kill him.
22 Sinabi ni Reuben sa kanila, “Huwag magpadanak ng dugo. Itapon siya sa balong ito sa deserto, ngunit huwag ninyo siyang hawakan”— upang mailigtas niya siya sa kanilang kamay para maibalik siya sa kanyang ama.
And Reuben said to them, Shed no blood, cast him into this pit that is in the wilderness, and lay no hand upon him; that he might deliver him from their hands, to bring him back to his father.
23 Nangyari na nang dumating si Jose sa kanyang mga kapatid, hinubad sa kaniya ang magandang damit.
And it came to pass, when Joseph had come to his brethren, that they stripped Joseph of his coat, his coat of many colours that was on him;
24 Dinala siya at itinapon siya sa loob ng balon. Walang laman ang balon ni wala itong tubig.
And they took him, and cast him into a pit: and the pit was empty, there was no water in it.
25 Umupo sila para kumain ng tinapay. Tumingala sila at tumingin, at masdan, may paparating na isang karawan ng mga Ismaelita mula sa Gilead, kasama ang kanilang mga kamelyo na may dala-dalang mga sahog at balsamo at mira. Naglalakbay sila ay para dalhin ang mga iyon pababa sa Ehipto.
And they sat down to eat bread: and they lifted up their eyes and looked, and, behold, a company of Ishmaelites came from Gilead with their camels bearing spicery and balm and myrrh, going to carry them down to Egypt.
26 Sabi ni Juda sa kanyang mga kapatid, “Anong pakinabang nito kung papatayin ang ating kapatid at pagtakpan ang kanyang dugo?
And Judah said to his brethren, What profit is it if we slay our brother, and conceal his blood?
27 Halina kayo, at ipagbili natin siya sa mga Ismaelita, at huwag natin siyang pagbuhatan ng kamay. Dahil siya ay ating kapatid, ating laman. Pinakinggan siya ng kanyang mga kapatid.
Come, and let us sell him to the Ishmaelites, and let not our hand be upon him; for he is our brother our flesh. And his brethren were content.
28 Dumaan ang mga mangangalakal na Midianita. Inihaon si Jose ng kanyang mga kapatid at iniakyat pataas mula sa balon. Ipinagbili nila si Jose sa mga Ismaelita para sa dalawampung pirasong pilak. Dinala si Jose ng mga Ismaelita sa Ehipto.
Then there passed by Midianites merchants; and they drew and lifted Joseph out of the pit, and sold Joseph to the Ishmaelites for twenty pieces of silver: and they brought Joseph into Egypt.
29 Bumalik si Reuben sa balon, at masdan, wala na si Jose sa loob ng balon. Pinunit niya ang kanyang damit.
And Reuben returned to the pit; and, behold, Joseph was not in the pit; and he tore his clothes.
30 Bumalik siya sa kanyang mga kapatid at sinabi, “Nasaan na ang bata? At ako, saan ako paparoon?”
And he returned to his brethren, and said, The child is not; and I, where shall I go?
31 Kumatay sila ang isang kambing at pagkatapos kinuha nila ang damit ni Jose at sinawsaw ito sa dugo.
And they took Joseph’s coat, and killed a kid of the goats, and dipped the coat in the blood;
32 Pagkatapos, dinala nila ito sa kanilang ama at sinabi, “Nakita namin ito. Pakiusap tingnan mo kung ito ang damit ng inyong 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 now whether it is thy son’s coat or not.
33 Nakilala ito ni Jacob at sinabi, “Ito ay damit ng aking anak. Sinakmal siya ng isang mabangis na hayop. Tiyak na nagkawasak-wasak ang katawan ni Jose.”
And he knew it, and said, It is my son’s coat; an evil beast hath devoured him; Joseph is without doubt torn in pieces.
34 Pinunit ni Jacob ang kanyang mga damit at naglagay siya ng sako sa kanyang balakang. Nagluksa siya para sa kanyang anak ng maraming araw.
And Jacob tore his clothes, and put sackcloth on his loins, and mourned for his son many days.
35 Ang lahat ng kanyang mga anak na lalaki at babae ay pumunta para aliwin siya ngunit tumanggi siyang magpaaliw. Sabi niya, “Talagang bababa ako sa sheol na nagluluksa para sa aking anak.” Nanangis ang kanyang ama para kanya. (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 to my son mourning. Thus his father wept for him. (Sheol h7585)
36 Ipinagbili siya ng mga Midianita sa Ehipto kay Potipar, isang opisyal ni Paraon, na kapitan ng bantay.
And the Midianites sold him into Egypt to Potiphar, an officer of Pharaoh’s, and captain of the guard.
