ΓΕΝΕΣΙΣ - Genesi - Genesis 37

LXX	DOUAI-RHEIMS
1 κατωκει δε ιακωβ εν τη γη ου παρωκησεν ο πατηρ αυτου εν γη χανααν	1 And Jacob dwelt in the land of Chanaan wherein his father sojourned.
2 αυται δε αι γενεσεις ιακωβ ιωσηφ δεκα επτα ετων ην ποιμαινων μετα των αδελφων αυτου τα προβατα ων νεος μετα των υιων βαλλας και μετα των υιων ζελφας των γυναικων του πατρος αυτου κατηνεγκεν δε ιωσηφ ψογον πονηρον προς ισραηλ τον πατερα αυτων	2 And these are his generations: Joseph, when he was sixteen years old, was feeding the dock with his brethren, being but a boy: and he was with the sons of and of Zelpha his father's wives : and he accused his brethren to his father of a most wicked crime.
3 ιακωβ δε ηγαπα τον ιωσηφ παρα παντας τους υιους αυτου οτι υιος γηρους ην αυτω εποιησεν δε αυτω χιτωνα ποικιλον	3 Now Israel loved Joseph above all his sons, because he had him in his old age: and he made him a coat of divers colours.
4 ιδοντες δε οι αδελφοι αυτου οτι αυτον ο πατηρ φιλει εκ παντων των υιων αυτου εμισησαν αυτον και ουκ εδυναντο λαλειν αυτω ουδεν ειρηνικον	4 And his brethren seeing that he was loved by his father, more than all his sons, hated him, and could not speak peaceably to him.
5 ενυπνιασθεις δε ιωσηφ ενυπνιον απηγγειλεν αυτο τοις αδελφοις αυτου	5 Now it fell out also that he told his brethren a dream, that he had dreamed: which occasioned them to hate him the more.
6 και ειπεν αυτοις ακουσατε του ενυπνιου τουτου ου ενυπνιασθην	6 And he said to them: Hear my dream which I dreamed.
7 ωμην ημας δεσμευειν δραγματα εν μεσω τω πεδιω και ανεστη το εμον δραγμα και ωρθωθη περιστραφεντα δε τα δραγματα υμων προσεκυνησαν το εμον δραγμα	7 I thought we were binding sheaves in the field: and my sheaf arose as it were, end stood, and your sheaves standing about, bowed down before my sheaf.
8 ειπαν δε αυτω οι αδελφοι μη βασιλευων βασιλευσεις εφ' ημας η κυριευων κυριευσεις ημων και προσεθεντο ετι μισειν αυτον ενεκεν των ενυπνιων αυτου και ενεκεν των ρηματων αυτου	8 His brethren answered : Shalt thou be our king? or shall we be subject to thy dominion? Therefore this matter of his dreams and words ministered nourishment to their envy and hatred.
9 ειδεν δε ενυπνιον ετερον και διηγησατο αυτο τω πατρι αυτου και τοις αδελφοις αυτου και ειπεν ιδου ενυπνιασαμην ενυπνιον ετερον ωσπερ ο ηλιος και η σεληνη και ενδεκα αστερες προσεκυνουν με	9 He dreamed also another dream, which he told his brethren, saying: I saw in a dream, as it were the sun, and the moon, and eleven stars worshipping me.
10 και επετιμησεν αυτω ο πατηρ αυτου και ειπεν αυτω τι το ενυπνιον τουτο ο ενυπνιασθης αρα γε ελθοντες ελευσομεθα εγω τε και η μητηρ σου και οι αδελφοι σου προσκυνησαι σοι επι την γην	10 And when he had told this to his father and brethren, his father rebuked him, and said: What meaneth this dream that thou hast dreamed? shall I and thy mother, and thy brethren worship thee upon the earth?
11 εζηλωσαν δε αυτον οι αδελφοι αυτου ο δε πατηρ αυτου διετηρησεν το ρημα	11 His brethren therefore envied him: but his father considered the thing with himself.
12 επορευθησαν δε οι αδελφοι αυτου βοσκειν τα προβατα του πατρος αυτων εις συχεμ	12 And when his brethren abode in Sichem feeding their father's docks,
13 και ειπεν ισραηλ προς ιωσηφ ουχ οι αδελφοι σου ποιμαινουσιν εν συχεμ δευρο αποστειλω σε προς αυτους ειπεν δε αυτω ιδου εγω	13 Israel said to him : Thy brethren feed the sheep in Sichem: come, I will send thee to them. And when he answered:
14 ειπεν δε αυτω ισραηλ πορευθεις ιδε ει υγιαινουσιν οι αδελφοι σου και τα προβατα και αναγγειλον μοι και απεστειλεν αυτον εκ της κοιλαδος της χεβρων και ηλθεν εις συχεμ	14 I am ready: he said to him: Go, and see if all things be well with thy brethren, and the cattle: and bring me word again what is doing. So being sent from the vale of Hebron, he came to Sichem:
15 και ευρεν αυτον ανθρωπος πλανωμενον εν τω πεδιω ηρωτησεν δε αυτον ο ανθρωπος λεγων τι ζητεις	15 And a man found him there wandering in the field, and asked what he sought.
16 ο δε ειπεν τους αδελφους μου ζητω αναγγειλον μοι που βοσκουσιν	16 But he answered: I seek my brethren; tell me where they feed the docks.
17 ειπεν δε αυτω ο ανθρωπος απηρκασιν εντευθεν ηκουσα γαρ αυτων λεγοντων πορευθωμεν εις δωθαιμ και επορευθη ιωσηφ κατοπισθεν των αδελφων αυτου και ευρεν αυτους εν δωθαιμ	17 And the man said to him: They are departed from this place: for I heard them say: Let us go to Dothain. And Joseph went forward after his brethren, and found them in Dothain.
18 προειδον δε αυτον μακροθεν προ του εγγισαι αυτον προς αυτους και επονηρευοντο του αποκτειναι αυτον	18 And when they saw him afar off, before he came nigh them, they thought to kill him.
19 ειπαν δε εκαστος προς τον αδελφον αυτου ιδου ο ενυπνιαστης εκεινος ερχεται	19 And said one to another: Behold the dreamer cometh.
20 νυν ουν δευτε αποκτεινωμεν αυτον και ριψωμεν αυτον εις ενα των λακκων και ερουμεν θηριον πονηρον κατεφαγεν αυτον και οψομεθα τι εσται τα ενυπνια αυτου	20 Come, let us kill him, and cast him into some old pit : and we will say : Some evil beast hath devoured him: and then it shall appear what his dreams avail him :
21 ακουσας δε ρουβην εξειλατο αυτον εκ των χειρων αυτων και ειπεν ου παταξομεν αυτον εις ψυχην	21 And Ruben hearing this, endeavoured to deliver him out of their hands, end said:
22 ειπεν δε αυτοις ρουβην μη εκχεητε αιμα εμβαλετε αυτον εις τον λακκον τουτον τον εν τη ερημω χειρα δε μη επενεγκητε αυτω οπως εξεληται αυτον εκ των χειρων αυτων και αποδω αυτον τω πατρι αυτου	22 Do not take away his life, nor shed his blood: but cast him into this pit, that is in the wilderness, and keep your hands harmless: now he said this, being desirous to deliver him out of their hands and to restore him to his father.
23 εγενετο δε ηνικα ηλθεν ιωσηφ προς τους αδελφους αυτου εξεδυσαν τον ιωσηφ τον χιτωνα τον ποικιλον τον περι αυτον	23 And as soon as he came to his brethren, they forthwith stript him of his outside coat, that was of divers colours:
24 και λαβοντες αυτον ερριψαν εις τον λακκον ο δε λακκος κενος υδωρ ουκ ειχεν	24 And cast him into an old pit, where there was no water.
25 εκαθισαν δε φαγειν αρτον και αναβλεψαντες τοις οφθαλμοις ειδον και ιδου οδοιποροι ισμαηλιται ηρχοντο εκ γαλααδ και αι καμηλοι αυτων εγεμον θυμιαματων και ρητινης και στακτης επορευοντο δε καταγαγειν εις αιγυπτον	25 And sitting down to eat bread, they saw some Ismaelites on their way coming from Calaad, with their camels, carrying spices, and balm, and myrrh to Egypt.
26 ειπεν δε ιουδας προς τους αδελφους αυτου τι χρησιμον εαν αποκτεινωμεν τον αδελφον ημων και κρυψωμεν το αιμα αυτου	26 And Juda said to his brethren: What will it profit us to kill our brother, and conceal his blood?
27 δευτε αποδωμεθα αυτον τοις ισμαηλιταις τουτοις αι δε χειρες ημων μη εστωσαν επ' αυτον οτι αδελφος ημων και σαρξ ημων εστιν ηκουσαν δε οι αδελφοι αυτου	27 It is better that he be sold to the Ismaelites, and that our hands be not defiled: for he is our brother and our flesh. His brethren agreed to his words.
28 και παρεπορευοντο οι ανθρωποι οι μαδιηναιοι οι εμποροι και εξειλκυσαν και ανεβιβασαν τον ιωσηφ εκ του λακκου και απεδοντο τον ιωσηφ τοις ισμαηλιταις εικοσι χρυσων και κατηγαγον τον ιωσηφ εις αιγυπτον	28 And when the Madianite merchants passed by, they drew him out of the pit, and sold him to the Ismaelites, for twenty pieces of silver: and they led him into Egypt.
29 ανεστρεψεν δε ρουβην επι τον λακκον και ουχ ορα τον ιωσηφ εν τω λακκω και διερρηξεν τα ιματια αυτου	29 And Ruben, returning to the pit, found not the boy:
30 και ανεστρεψεν προς τους αδελφους αυτου και ειπεν το παιδαριον ουκ εστιν εγω δε που πορευομαι ετι	30 And rending his garments he went to his brethren, and said: The boy doth not appear and whither shall I go?
31 λαβοντες δε τον χιτωνα του ιωσηφ εσφαξαν εριφον αιγων και εμολυναν τον χιτωνα τω αιματι	31 And they took his coat, and dipped it in the blood of a kid, which they had killed :
32 και απεστειλαν τον χιτωνα τον ποικιλον και εισηνεγκαν τω πατρι αυτων και ειπαν τουτον ευρομεν επιγνωθι ει χιτων του υιου σου εστιν η ου	32 Sending some to carry it to their father, and to say: This we have found: see whether it be thy son's coat, or not.
33 και επεγνω αυτον και ειπεν χιτων του υιου μου εστιν θηριον πονηρον κατεφαγεν αυτον θηριον ηρπασεν τον ιωσηφ	33 And the father acknowledging it, said: It is my son's coat, an evil wild beast hath eaten him, a beast hath devoured Joseph.
34 διερρηξεν δε ιακωβ τα ιματια αυτου και επεθετο σακκον επι την οσφυν αυτου και επενθει τον υιον αυτου ημερας πολλας	34 And tearing his garments, he put an sackcloth, mourning for his son a long time.
35 συνηχθησαν δε παντες οι υιοι αυτου και αι θυγατερες και ηλθον παρακαλεσαι αυτον και ουκ ηθελεν παρακαλεισθαι λεγων οτι καταβησομαι προς τον υιον μου πενθων εις αδου και εκλαυσεν αυτον ο πατηρ αυτου	35 And alibis children being gathered together to comfort their father in his sorrow, he would not receive comfort, but said: I will go down to my son into hell, mourning. And whilst he continued weeping,
36 οι δε μαδιηναιοι απεδοντο τον ιωσηφ εις αιγυπτον τω πετεφρη τω σπαδοντι φαραω αρχιμαγειρω	36 The Madianites sold Joseph in Egypt to Putiphar, an eunuch of Pharao, captain of the soldiers.
