Genesis 37
1 And Jacob dwelt in the land of his father’s sojournings, in the land of Canaan.
Ia, Yakob se dudꞌui na. Leleꞌ naa, Yakob neu leo baliꞌ sia rae Kanaꞌan, fo maꞌahulu na, aman Isak mamana leleon.
2 These are the generations of Jacob. Joseph, being seventeen years old, was feeding the flock with his brethren; and he was a lad with the sons of Bilhah, and with the sons of Zilpah, his father’s wives: and Joseph brought the evil report of them unto their father.
Leleꞌ naa, Yakob anan esa mia sao na Rahel, naran Yusuf. Ana too sanahulu hitu ma, no aꞌa nara reu ranea hiek-lombo ra. Aꞌa nara, anaꞌ mia Yakob sao nara, Bilha ma Silpa. Te Yusuf ia, mana nendi-nendiꞌ dedꞌeat fee ama na, soꞌal aꞌa nara.
3 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.
Bonggi Yusuf te, Yakob lasiꞌ ena. Naa de ana sue Yusuf lenaꞌ ana na laen ra. Lao esa, Yakob soo badꞌu naru meulauꞌ esa, fee Yusuf.
4 And his brethren saw that their father loved him more than all his brethren; and they hated him, and could not speak peaceably unto him.
Aꞌa nara rahine ama na sue Yusuf lenaꞌ, de ramanasa e seli. Ara nda nau ola-olaꞌ malolole ro e sa ena.
5 And Joseph dreamed a dream, and he told it to his brethren: and they hated him yet the more.
Tetembaꞌ esa ma, Yusuf nalamein. De nafadꞌe meit naa neu aꞌa nara nae, “We! Hei rena dei! Au ulumein ae basa nggita paꞌa are-nggandum sia osi rala. Au are ngga nambariiꞌ ndos. Te hei are mara rambariiꞌ nduleꞌ au are ngga, ma beꞌutee neu are ngga.” Aꞌa nara rena rala ma, ramanasa e.
6 And he said unto them, Hear, I pray you, this dream which I have dreamed:
7 for, behold, we were binding sheaves in the field, and, lo, my sheaf arose, and also stood upright; and, behold, your sheaves came round about, and made obeisance to my sheaf.
8 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.
Boe ma ara ai Yusuf rae, “Woi! Mbei ma ho mae dadꞌi hai malangga mana parenda ma, do?” Ara ramanasa e seli, huu nafadꞌe meit naa.
9 And he dreamed yet another dream, and told it to his brethren, and said, Behold, I have dreamed yet a dream; and, behold, the sun and the moon and eleven stars made obeisance to me.
Basa naa ma, Yusuf nalamein seluꞌ fai. De ana nafadꞌe aꞌa nara nae, “We! Au ulumein fai. Au ita relo, fulan, ma nduuꞌ sanahulu esa. Basa se beꞌutee malolole neu au.”
10 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 thou hast dreamed? Shall I and thy mother and thy brethren indeed come to bow down ourselves to thee to the earth?
Yusuf dui basa meit naa neu aman no aꞌa nara ma, aman ai e nae, “Meit saa ka naa! Ho duꞌa mae au, o inam, ma aꞌa mara ima idꞌu ei ma, do? Ho seli, ma!”
11 And his brethren envied him; but his father kept the saying in mind.
De Yusuf aꞌa nara rambedꞌaꞌ ralaꞌ ro e. Te aman dudꞌuꞌa meit naa nakandooꞌ a.
12 And his brethren went to feed their father’s flock in Shechem.
Faiꞌ esa ma, Yusuf aꞌa nara rendi ama na hiek-lombo nara losa deka no kambo Sikem.
13 And Israel said unto Joseph, Do not thy brethren feed the flock in Shechem? come, and I will send thee unto them. And he said to him, Here am I.
Nda dooꞌ sa ma, ama na nae, “Yusuf e! Aꞌa mara ranea hiek-lombo deka no Sikem. De muote fo muu seꞌu se dei.” Yusuf nataa nae, “Malole amaꞌ.”
14 And he said to him, Go now, see whether it be well with thy brethren, and well with the flock; and bring me word again. So he sent him out of the vale of Hebron, and he came to Shechem.
Boe ma ama na nae, “Muu dei, fo seꞌu aꞌa mara ro hiek-lombo nggara. Ara ona bee naa, baliꞌ mufadꞌe au.” Boe ma, Yusuf lao hela rae Hebron moo na, de nakandoo Sikem neu.
15 And a certain man found him, and, behold, he was wandering in the field: and the man asked him, saying, What seekest thou?
Losa naa, de sangga se ndule mooꞌ a. Basa ma, nandaa no atahori esa. De atahori naa natane e nae, “Ho sangga saa?’.
16 And he said, I seek my brethren: tell me, I pray thee, where they are feeding [the flock].
Yusuf nataa nae, “Toꞌo. Au sangga aꞌa nggara. Ara mboo hiek-lombo sangga uru deka-deka ia. Toꞌo nita se boe, do?”
17 And the man said, They are departed hence: for I heard them say, Let us go to Dothan. And Joseph went after his brethren, and found them in Dothan.
Nafadꞌe nae, “Ara nda sia ia sa. Oi rae reu sia deka-deka kambo Dotan.” Boe ma, Yusuf neu tungga aꞌa nara, losa nita se sia Dotan.
18 And they saw him afar off, and before he came near unto them, they conspired against him to slay him.
Yusuf feꞌe sia dodꞌooꞌ, te ara rita e ena. Boe ma ara maꞌiraꞌ rae tao risa e.
19 And they said one to another, Behold, this dreamer cometh.
Esa nafadꞌe esa nae, “Mete dei. Malangga meit a nema ena!
20 Come now therefore, and let us slay him, and cast him into one of the pits, and we will say, An evil beast hath devoured him: and we shall see what will become of his dreams.
Ata tao tisa e leo, do? Basa fo honda hendiꞌ e nisiꞌ oe mates rala neu. Dei fo tafadꞌe amaꞌ tae banda fui ra raa hendi e. Basa fo ata mete meit nara, taꞌo bee!”
21 And Reuben heard it, and delivered him out of their hand; and said, Let us not take his life.
Rena nala naa ma, aꞌa Ruben na sangga dalaꞌ fo nae fee ne nasodꞌa. De ana ai odꞌi nara nae, “We! Ata afiꞌ tao tisa e!
22 And Reuben said unto them, Shed no blood; cast him into this pit that is in the wilderness, but lay no hand upon him: that he might deliver him out of their hand, to restore him to his father.
Malole lenaꞌ ata tumbuꞌ e nisiꞌ oe mates ia rala. Sia ia mamana maꞌabambiꞌ, de atahori nda rahine sa. Sadꞌi afiꞌ tasaiꞌ raa na.” Ana olaꞌ taꞌo naa, huu ana nae mboꞌi Yusuf, fo denu e baliꞌ.
23 And it came to pass, when Joseph was come unto his brethren, that they stript Joseph of his coat, the coat of many colours that was on him;
Yusuf losa boe ma, aꞌa nara toꞌu rala e, de sidꞌa hendi badꞌu naru meulau na.
24 and they took him, and cast him into the pit: and the pit was empty, there was no water in it.
Basa ma, ara lea dudꞌui e, de timba e oe mates rala neu.
25 And they sat down to eat bread: and they lifted up their eyes and looked, and, behold, a travelling company of Ishmaelites came from Gilead, with their camels bearing spicery and balm and myrrh, going to carry it down to Egypt.
Basa boe ma ara baliꞌ reu raa. Ara feꞌe raa, aiboiꞌ ma, rita nononggoꞌ esa nema. Nononggoꞌ naa, banda onta nara fua bua danggan, onaꞌ hau maꞌameniꞌ, bumbu-bumbu, ma modꞌo mataꞌ-mataꞌ. Tao-tao te nononggoꞌ naa atahori Ismael mia kambo Gilead rae laoꞌ dooꞌ reu sia Masir.
26 And Judah said unto his brethren, What profit is it if we slay our brother and conceal his blood?
Basa ma, Yahuda nafadꞌe odꞌi-aꞌa nara nae, “Weh! Malole lenaꞌ taꞌo ia. Afiꞌ tisa e. Hita hambu saa, boe? Mae ona bee o, nda taꞌafuniꞌ tala raa na sa.
27 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 hearkened unto him.
Malole lenaꞌ seo hendiꞌ e neu atahori Ismael ra. Mae tao taꞌo bee mbali e o, eni, hita odꞌi bꞌonggi na. De afiꞌ taꞌahinaꞌ e!” Boe ma, basa se tungga oꞌola na.
28 And there passed by Midianites, merchantmen; and they drew and lifted up Joseph out of the pit, and sold Joseph to the Ishmaelites for twenty pieces of silver. And they brought Joseph into Egypt.
Basa naa ma, nandaa no atahori mana danggan naa ra tungga naa, Yusuf aꞌa nara lea e mia oe rala. De ara seo e neu atahori Ismael ra, no feli na doi fulaꞌ rua nulu. Basa ma, ara rendi Yusuf Masir neu.
29 And Reuben returned unto the pit; and, behold, Joseph was not in the pit; and he rent his clothes.
Ara seo Yusuf, te Ruben nda bubꞌuluꞌ sa. Leleꞌ ana baliꞌ nisiꞌ oe mataꞌ a neu, ana nggengger nala seli, huu Yusuf nese ena. De ana sisidꞌa bua na sia ao na, huu ralan susa nala seli.
30 And he returned unto his brethren, and said, The child is not; and I, whither shall I go?
Boe ma ana baliꞌ nisiꞌ odꞌi nara nae, “Aweee! Anaꞌ a nese ia ena. Ia naa, au ae tao taꞌo bee fai?”
31 And they took Joseph’s coat, and killed a he-goat, and dipped the coat in the blood;
Basa ma ara hala hiek esa, de haꞌi Yusuf badꞌu meulau na, de boroꞌ e neu raaꞌ.
32 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 thy son’s coat or not.
Haꞌi rala badꞌu fo akaꞌ raaꞌ naa, de rendi fee ama na, ma rafadꞌe rae, “Amaꞌ! Hai here mala badꞌu ia. Mete sobꞌa. Afiꞌ losa odꞌi Yusuf ena na.”
33 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.
Yakob mete badꞌu a ma, nahine neuꞌ ena. Nataa nae, “Aweee! Memaꞌ ia au ana ngga badꞌu na. Mitaꞌ mae banda fui ra raa e sia bee ena. Aweee! Au ana ngga mate ena!”
34 And Jacob rent his garments, and put sackcloth upon his loins, and mourned for his son many days.
Basa naa ma, Yakob sisidꞌa badꞌu na, de olu karon abas, huu ana susa nala seli. Boe ma ana nggaee nakandondooꞌ a anan doo na seli.
35 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 to the grave to my son mourning. And his father wept for him. (Sheol h7585)
Basa ana touꞌ ma ana ina nara rema radadale, te nda rala e sa. Ana nae, “Hokoꞌ! Au susa losa mate. Au nda bisa liliiꞌ anaꞌ ia sa.” De Yakob susa nakandooꞌ a, huu nasanedꞌa anan Yusuf mana mateꞌ a. (Sheol h7585)
36 And the Midianites sold him into Egypt unto Potiphar, an officer of Pharaoh’s, the captain of the guard.
Leleꞌ Yakob feꞌe susa taꞌo naa, te atahori danggan naa ra losa Masir ena. De reu seo Yusuf neu malangga esa, naran Potifar. Eni, mane Masir a malangga nanea na.
