¹Yacquubna wuxuu degay dhulkii aabbihiis qariibka ku ahaan jiray, oo ahaa dalkii Kancaan.

¹And Jacob dwelleth in the land of his father`s sojournings — in the land of Canaan.

²Kuwanuna waa farcankii Yacquub. Yuusuf, isagoo jira toddoba iyo toban sannadood, ayuu idaha la daajinayay walaalihiis, wuxuuna ahaa wiil la jooga wiilashii Bilhah iyo Silfah oo ahaa naagihii aabbihiis. Markaasuu Yuusuf xaggooda war xun uga keenay aabbahood.

²These [are] births of Jacob: Joseph, a son of seventeen years, hath been enjoying himself with his brethren among the flock, (and he [is] a youth,) with the sons of Bilhah, and with the sons of Zilpah, his father`s wives, and Joseph bringeth in an account of their evil unto their father.

³Israa'iilna Yuusuf wuu ka jeclaa carruurtiisa oo dhan, maxaa yeelay, wuxuu ahaa inankuu dhalay markuu gaboobay; oo wuxuuna u sameeyey shulug midabyo badan leh.

³And Israel hath loved Joseph more than any of his sons, for he [is] a son of his old age, and hath made for him a long coat;

⁴Markaasaa walaalihiis arkeen in aabbahood ka jecel yahay isaga walaalihiis oo dhan; kolkaasay nebcaadeen isagii, wayna kari waayeen inay isaga si nabad ah ula hadlaan.

⁴and his brethren see that their father hath loved him more than any of his brethren, and they hate him, and have not been able to speak [to] him peaceably.

⁵Yuusufna wuu riyooday, markaasuu riyadiisii u sheegay walaalihiis, iyana aad bay u sii nebcaadeen.

⁵And Joseph dreameth a dream, and declareth to his brethren, and they add still more to hate him.

⁶Oo wuxuu iyagii ku yidhi, Waan idin baryayaaye, bal maqla riyadan aan ku riyooday.

⁶And he saith unto them, `Hear ye, I pray you, this dream which I have dreamed:

⁷Bal eega, waxaynu beerta ku xidhxidhaynay xidhmooyin, markaasaa xidhmadaydii kacday, oo istaagtay, xidhmooyinkiinniina hareeraheeday yimaadeen oo u sujuudeen xidhmadaydii.

⁷that, lo, we are binding bundles in the midst of the field, and lo, my bundle hath arisen, and hath also stood up, and lo, your bundles are round about, and bow themselves to my bundle.`

⁸Markaasaa walaalihiis ku yidhaahdeen, Ma annagaad na xukumi doontaa? Amase noo talin doontaa? Markaasay aad iyo aad ugu sii nebcaadeen riyooyinkiisii iyo hadalladiisii aawadood.

⁸And his brethren say to him, `Dost thou certainly reign over us? dost thou certainly rule over us?` and they add still more to hate him, for his dreams, and for his words.

⁹Markaasuu haddana riyo kale ku riyooday, oo walaalihiis u sheegay, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Bal eega, riyo kalaan ku riyoodaye. Waxaan ku riyooday qorraxdii iyo dayaxii, iyo koob iyo toban xiddigood oo ii sujuuday.

⁹And he dreameth yet another dream, and recounteth it to his brethren, and saith, `Lo, I have dreamed a dream again, and lo, the sun and the moon, and eleven stars, are bowing themselves to me.`

¹⁰Markaasuu aabbihiis u sheegay, iyo walaalihiisba, aabbihiisna waa canaantay, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Waa maxay riyadan aad ku riyootay? Ma aniga iyo hooyadaa iyo walaalahaa baa kuu iman doonna, oo intaan wejiga dhulka saarno kuu sujuudi doonna?

¹⁰And he recounteth unto his father, and unto his brethren; and his father pusheth against him, and saith to him, `What [is] this dream which thou hast dreamt? do we certainly come — I, and thy mother, and thy brethren — to bow ourselves to thee, to the earth?`

¹¹Markaasay walaalihiis ka masayreen isagii; laakiinse aabbihiis maankuu ku haystay hadalkii.

¹¹and his brethren are zealous against him, and his father hath watched the matter.

¹²Markaasaa walaalihiis tageen, inay adhigii aabbahood soo daajiyaan Shekem.

¹²And his brethren go to feed the flock of their father in Shechem,

¹³Israa'iilna wuxuu Yuusuf ku yidhi, Miyaanay walaalahaa adhigii daajinayn Shekem? Bal kaalay, xaggoodaan kuu dirayaaye. Markaasuu isna ku yidhi, Waa i kan.

¹³and Israel saith unto Joseph, `Are not thy brethren feeding in Shechem? come, and I send thee unto them;` and he saith to him, `Here [am] I;`

¹⁴Oo wuxuu ku yidhi isagii, Bal tag oo soo arag in walaalahaa iyo adhigiiba nabad qabaan iyo in kale, oo haddana ii war keen. Sidaas daraaddeed isagii wuxuu ka diray dooxadii Xebroon, oo wuxuu tegey Shekem.

¹⁴and he saith to him, `Go, I pray thee, see the peace of thy brethren, and the peace of the flock, and bring me back word;` and he sendeth him from the valley of Hebron, and he cometh to Shechem.

¹⁵Markaasaa nin helay isagoo duurka wareegaya; ninkiina wax buu weyddiiyey oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Maxaad doondoonaysaa?

¹⁵And a man findeth him, and lo, he is wandering in the field, and the man asketh him, saying, `What seekest thou?`

¹⁶Isna wuxuu yidhi, Waxaan doondoonayaa walaalahay. Waan ku baryayaaye, ii sheeg meesha ay adhigii daajinayaan.

¹⁶and he saith, `My brethren I am seeking, declare to me, I pray thee, where they are feeding?`

¹⁷Markaasaa ninkii ku yidhi, Halkan way ka tageen, waayo, waxaan maqlay iyagoo isku leh, Ina keena aynu Dotaan tagnee. Markaasuu Yuusuf walaalihiis ka daba tegey, oo wuxuu iyagii ka helay Dotaan.

¹⁷And the man saith, `They have journeyed from this, for I have heard some saying, Let us go to Dothan,` and Joseph goeth after his brethren, and findeth them in Dothan.

¹⁸Markaasay meel fog ka arkeen isagii, oo intuusan u soo dhowaan iyagii, ayay ku tashadeen inay dilaan.

¹⁸And they see him from afar, even before he draweth near unto them, and they conspire against him to put him to death.

¹⁹Oo waxay isku yidhaahdeen, Bal eega, kii riyada badnaa waa soo socdaaye.

¹⁹And they say one unto another, `Lo, this man of the dreams cometh;

²⁰Haddaba kaalaya aynu dilnee, oo aynu ku tuurno ceelasha midkood, oo waxaynu odhan doonnaa, Bahal xun baa cunay. Dabadeedna waxaynu arki doonnaa bal waxay riyooyinkiisii noqdaan.

²⁰and now, come, and we slay him, and cast him into one of the pits, and have said, An evil beast hath devoured him; and we see what his dreams are.`

²¹Oo Ruubeen baa taas maqlay, isagiina wuu ka samatabbixiyey gacantoodii; oo wuxuu iyagii ku yidhi, Yeynan naftiisa ka qaadin.

²¹And Reuben heareth, and delivereth him out of their hand, and saith, `Let us not smite the life;`

²²Kolkaasaa Ruubeen ku yidhi iyagii, Dhiig ha daadinina, ee isaga ku tuura ceelkan cidlada ku yaal, laakiinse far ha saarina. Oo wuxuu taas u yeelay inuu isaga ka samatabbixiyo gacantooda oo uu u celiyo aabbihiis.

²²and Reuben saith unto them, `Shed no blood; cast him into this pit which [is] in the wilderness, and put not forth a hand upon him,` — in order to deliver him out of their hand, to bring him back unto his father.

²³Oo waxay noqotay in markii Yuusuf walaalihiis u yimid ay Yusuuf ka furteen shuluggiisii, kaasu wuxuu ahaa shuluggii midabyada badnaa oo uu qabay.

²³And it cometh to pass, when Joseph hath come unto his brethren, that they strip Joseph of his coat, the long coat which [is] upon him,

²⁴Kolkaasay qabteen oo ay ceelkii ku tuureen; ceelkuna waa madhnaa oo biyo kuma jirin.

²⁴and take him and cast him into the pit, and the pit [is] empty, there is no water in it.

²⁵Kolkaasay u fadhiisteen inay wax cunaan; dabadeedna indhahay kor u taageen oo wax bay fiiriyeen, oo waxay arkeen safar reer Ismaaciil ah oo ka soo socda xagga Gilecaad, oo awrtooda ay ugu raran yihiin xawaash, iyo beeyo, iyo malmal, waxayna u socdeen xagga Masar.

²⁵And they sit down to eat bread, and they lift up their eyes, and look, and lo, a company of Ishmaelites coming from Gilead, and their camels bearing spices, and balm, and myrrh, going to take [them] down to Egypt.

²⁶Markaasuu Yahuudah ku yidhi walaalihiis, Maxaa faa'iido inoogu jirta, haddaynu walaalkeen dilno oo aynu dhiiggiisa qarinno?

²⁶And Judah saith unto his brethren, `What gain when we slay our brother, and have concealed his blood?

²⁷Kaalaya, aynu reer Ismaaciil ka iibinnee, oo yeynan isaga far saarin, maxaa yeelay, isagu waa walaalkeen, waana jidhkeenna. Walaalihiisna way maqleen isagii.

²⁷Come, and we sell him to the Ishmaelites, and our hands are not on him, for he [is] our brother — our flesh;` and his brethren hearken.

²⁸Oo waxaa ag maray niman reer Midyaan ah, oo baayacmushtariyaal ah. Markaasay Yuusuf soo jiideen oo ceelkii ka soo bixiyeen, oo waxay Yuusuf kuwii reer Ismaaciil kaga iibiyeen labaatan xabbadood oo lacag ah. Oo iyana Yuusuf waxay keeneen Masar.

²⁸And Midianite merchantmen pass by and they draw out and bring up Joseph out of the pit, and sell Joseph to the Ishmaelites for twenty silverlings, and they bring Joseph into Egypt.

²⁹Markaasaa Ruubeen ku noqday ceelkii; wuxuuna arkay inuusan Yuusuf ku jirin ceelka, kolkaasuu dharkiisii dildillaaciyey.

²⁹And Reuben returneth unto the pit, and lo, Joseph is not in the pit, and he rendeth his garments,

³⁰Markaasuu walaalihiis ku noqday, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Yarkii ma joogo, haddaba anigu xaggee baan tagaa?

³⁰and he returneth unto his brethren, and saith, `The lad is not, and I — whither am I going?`

³¹Kolkaasay shuluggii Yuusuf qaadeen oo intay orgi gowraceen ayay shuluggii dhiiggii geliyeen.

³¹And they take the coat of Joseph, and slaughter a kid of the goats, and dip the coat in the blood,

³²Markaasay shuluggii midabyada badnaa direen, oo ay aabbahood u keeneen; oo waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Kan waannu helnay, haddaba bal garo inuu shuluggii wiilkaagii yahay iyo in kale.

³²and send the long coat, and they bring [it] in unto their father, and say, `This have we found; discern, we pray thee, whether it [is] thy son`s coat or not?`

³³Wuuna gartay, oo wuxuu yidhi, Waa shuluggii wiilkayga. Bahal xun baa cunay isagii. Shakila'aan Yuusuf cadcad baa loo kala jeexjeexay.

³³And he discerneth it, and saith, `My son`s coat! an evil beast hath devoured him; torn — torn is Joseph!`

³⁴Markaasaa Yacquub dharkiisii dildillaaciyey, oo joonyad buu dhexda ku xidhay, wiilkiisiina maalmo badan ayuu u barooranayay.

³⁴And Jacob rendeth his raiment, and putteth sackcloth on his loins, and becometh a mourner for his son many days,

³⁵Kolkaasaa wiilashiisii oo dhan iyo gabdhihiisii oo dhammu u kaceen inay isaga qalbi qaboojiyaan, laakiinse wuu diiday inuu qalbi qaboobo, oo wuxuu yidhi, Anigoo barooranaya ayaan qabriga geli doonaa oo wiilkaygii u tegi doonaa. Aabbihiisna wuu u ooyay isagii.Markaasay kuwii reer Midyaan isagii Masar kaga iibiyeen nin la odhan jiray Footiifar, wuxuuna ahaa sirkaalkii Fircoon oo ahaa madaxa waardiyayaasha.

³⁵and all his sons and all his daughters rise to comfort him, and he refuseth to comfort himself, and saith, `For — I go down mourning unto my son, to Sheol,` and his father weepeth for him.

³⁶Markaasay kuwii reer Midyaan isagii Masar kaga iibiyeen nin la odhan jiray Footiifar, wuxuuna ahaa sirkaalkii Fircoon oo ahaa madaxa waardiyayaasha.

³⁶And the Medanites have sold him unto Egypt, to Potiphar, a eunuch of Pharaoh, head of the executioners.
