¹

Всели́ся же Іа́ковъ въ земли́, идѣ́же обита́ Ісаа́къ, оте́цъ єго́, въ земли́ Ханаа́ни.

¹

And Jacob dwelt in the land where his father sojourned, in the land of Chanaan.

²

Сі́и же ро́ди Іа́ковли. Іо́сифъ же бя́ше седмина́десяти лѣ́тъ, пасы́й о́вцы отца́ своєго́ съ бра́тією своє́ю, ю́нъ сы́й, съ сынми́ Ва́ллы и съ сынми́ Зе́лфы, же́нъ отца́ своєго́: нанесо́ша же на Іо́сифа злу́ клевету́ ко Ізра́илю отцу́ своєму́.

²

And these are the generations of Jacob. And Joseph was seventeen years old, feeding the sheep of his father with his brethren, being young; with the sons of Balla, and with the sons of Zelpha, the wives of his father; and Joseph brought to Israel their father their evil reproach.

³

Іа́ковъ же любля́ше Іо́сифа па́че всѣ́хъ сыно́въ свои́хъ, я́ко сы́нъ въ ста́рости єму́ бы́сть: и сотвори́ єму́ ри́зу пе́стру.

³

And Jacob loved Joseph more than all his sons, because he was to him the son of old age; and he made for him a coat of many colours.

⁴

Ви́дѣвше же бра́тія єго́, я́ко лю́битъ єго́ оте́цъ па́че всѣ́хъ сыно́въ свои́хъ, возненави́дѣша єго́ и не можа́ху глаго́лати къ нему́ ничто́же ми́рно.

⁴

And his brethren having seen that his father loved him more than all his sons, hated him, and could not speak anything peaceable to him.

⁵

Ви́дѣвъ же Іо́сифъ со́нъ, повѣ́да и́ бра́тіи своє́й

⁵

And Joseph dreamed a dream, and reported it to his brethren.

⁶

и рече́ и́мъ: послу́шайте сна́ сего́, єго́же ви́дѣхъ:

⁶

And he said to them, Hear this dream which I have dreamed.

⁷

мнѣ́хъ ва́съ вя́жущихъ снопы́ средѣ́ по́ля: и воста́ мо́й сно́пъ и ста́ пря́мо, ва́ши же снопы́ обрати́вшеся поклони́шася моєму́ снопу́.

⁷

I thought ye were binding sheaves in the middle of the field, and my sheaf stood up and was erected, and your sheaves turned round, and did obeisance to my sheaf.

⁸

Рѣ́ша же єму́ бра́тія єго́: єда́ ца́рствуя ца́рствовати бу́деши надъ на́ми, или́ госпо́дствуя госпо́дствовати бу́деши надъ на́ми? И приложи́ша єще́ ненави́дѣти єго́ сно́въ ра́ди єго́ и ра́ди слове́съ єго́.

⁸

And his brethren said to him, Shalt thou indeed reign over us, or shalt thou indeed be lord over us? And they hated him still more for his dreams and for his words.

⁹

Ви́дѣ же со́нъ другі́й и повѣ́да єго́ отцу́ своєму́ и бра́тіи своє́й, и рече́: се́, ви́дѣхъ другі́й со́нъ: а́ки бы со́лнце и луна́ и єдинона́десять звѣ́здъ покланя́хуся мнѣ́.

⁹

And he dreamed another dream, and related it to his father, and to his brethren, and said, Behold, I have dreamed another dream: as it were the sun, and the moon, and the eleven stars did me reverence.

¹⁰

И запрети́ єму́ оте́цъ єго́ и рече́ єму́: что́ со́нъ се́й, єго́же єси́ ви́дѣлъ? Єда́ прише́дше пріи́демъ а́зъ и ма́ти твоя́ и бра́тія твоя́ поклони́тися тебѣ́ до земли́?

¹⁰

And his father rebuked him, and said to him, What is this dream which thou hast dreamed? shall indeed both I and thy mother and thy brethren come and bow before thee to the earth?

¹¹

Позави́дѣша же єму́ бра́тія єго́: оте́цъ же єго́ соблюде́ сло́во сіє́.

¹¹

And his brethren envied him; but his father observed the saying.

¹²

Отидо́ша же бра́тія єго́ пасти́ о́вцы отца́ своєго́ въ Сихе́мъ.

¹²

And his brethren went to feed the sheep of their father to Sychem.

¹³

И рече́ Ізра́иль ко Іо́сифу: єда́ бра́тія твоя́ не пасу́тъ въ Сихе́мѣ? Гряди́, да послю́ тя къ ни́мъ. Рече́ же єму́: се́, а́зъ.

¹³

And Israel said to Joseph, Do not thy brethren feed their flock in Sychem? Come, I will send thee to them; and he said to him, Behold, I am here.

¹⁴

Рече́ же єму́ Ізра́иль: ше́дъ, ви́ждь, а́ще здра́вствуютъ бра́тія твоя́ и о́вцы, и повѣ́ждь ми́. И посла́ єго́ от юдо́ли Хевро́ни. И пріи́де въ Сихе́мъ:

¹⁴

And Israel said to him, Go and see if thy brethren and the sheep are well, and bring me word; and he sent him out of the valley of Chebron, and he came to Sychem.

¹⁵

и обрѣ́те єго́ человѣ́къ заблужда́юща на по́ли: вопроси́ же єго́ человѣ́къ глаго́ля: чесого́ и́щеши?

¹⁵

And a man found him wandering in the field; and the man asked him, saying, What seekest thou?

¹⁶

О́нъ же рече́: бра́тіи моєя́ ищу́: повѣ́ждь ми́, гдѣ́ пасу́тъ.

¹⁶

And he said, I am seeking my brethren; tell me where they feed their flocks.

¹⁷

Рече́ же єму́ человѣ́къ: отидо́ша отсю́ду: слы́шахъ бо и́хъ глаго́лющихъ: по́йдемъ въ Доѳаі́мъ. И и́де Іо́сифъ вслѣ́дъ бра́тіи своєя́ и обрѣ́те я́ въ Доѳаі́мѣ.

¹⁷

And the man said to him, They have departed hence, for I heard them saying, Let us go to Dothaim; and Joseph went after his brethren, and found them in Dothaim.

¹⁸

Предузрѣ́ша же єго́ издале́че, пре́жде приближе́нія єго́ къ ни́мъ, и злѣ́ умы́слиша уби́ти єго́:

¹⁸

And they spied him from a distance before he drew nigh to them, and they wickedly took counsel to slay him.

¹⁹

рече́ же кі́йждо къ бра́ту своєму́: се́, снови́децъ о́ный и́детъ:

¹⁹

And each said to his brother, Behold, that dreamer comes.

²⁰

ны́нѣ у́бо пріиди́те, убіє́мъ єго́ и вве́ржимъ єго́ во єди́нъ от рво́въ, и рече́мъ: звѣ́рь лю́тъ снѣде́ єго́: и у́зримъ, что́ бу́дутъ со́нія єго́.

²⁰

Now then come, let us kill him, and cast him into one of the pits; and we will say, An evil wild beast has devoured him; and we shall see what his dreams will be.

²¹

Слы́шавъ же Руви́мъ, отъя́ єго́ изъ ру́къ и́хъ и рече́: не убіє́мъ єго́ на души́.

²¹

And Ruben having heard it, rescued him out of their hands, and said, Let us not kill him.

²²

Рече́ же и́мъ Руви́мъ: не пролі́йте кро́ве, вве́рзите єго́ во єди́нъ от рво́въ си́хъ, и́же въ пусты́ни, руки́ же не возложи́те на него́: [тща́шеся бо] я́ко да изы́метъ єго́ от ру́къ и́хъ и отда́стъ єго́ отцу́ своєму́.

²²

And Ruben said to them, Shed not blood; cast him into one of these pits in the wilderness, but do not lay your hand upon him; that he might rescue him out of their hands, and restore him to his father.

²³

Бы́сть же єгда́ пріи́де Іо́сифъ къ бра́тіи своє́й, совлеко́ша со Іо́сифа ри́зу пе́струю, я́же на не́мъ,

²³

And it came to pass, when Joseph came to his brethren, that they stripped Joseph of his many-coloured coat that was upon him.

²⁴

и поє́мше єго́ вверго́ша въ ро́въ: ро́въ же то́щь, воды́ не имя́ше.

²⁴

And they took him and cast him into the pit; and the pit was empty, it had not water.

²⁵

И сѣдо́ша я́сти хлѣ́бъ, и воззрѣ́вше очи́ма ви́дѣша, и се́, пу́тницы Ісма́илтяне идя́ху от Галаа́да, и велблю́ды и́хъ по́лны ѳиміа́ма и риті́ны {ту́къ масти́тый изъ дрѣ́ва теку́щій} и ста́кти: идя́ху же везу́ще во Єги́петъ.

²⁵

And they sat down to eat bread; and having lifted up their eyes they beheld, and lo, Ismaelitish travellers came from Galaad, and their camels were heavily loaded with spices, and resin, and myrrh; and they went to bring them to Egypt.

²⁶

Рече́ же Іу́да ко бра́тіи своє́й: ка́я по́льза, а́ще убіє́мъ бра́та на́шего и скры́ємъ кро́вь єго́?

²⁶

And Judas said to his brethren, What profit is it if we slay our brother, and conceal his blood?

²⁷

Гряди́те продади́мъ єго́ Ісма́илтяномъ си́мъ: ру́цѣ же на́ши да не бу́дутъ на не́мъ, я́ко бра́тъ на́шъ и пло́ть на́ша є́сть. Послу́шаша же бра́тія єго́.

²⁷

Come, let us sell him to these Ismaelites, but let not our hands be upon him, because he is our brother and our flesh; and his brethren hearkened.

²⁸

И мимоидо́ша человѣ́цы Мадіа́мстіи купцы́: и извлеко́ша и возведо́ша Іо́сифа изъ ро́ва, и прода́ша Іо́сифа Ісма́илтяномъ на два́десять златни́цъ. И поведо́ша Іо́сифа во Єги́петъ.

²⁸

And the men, the merchants of Madian, went by, and they drew and lifted Joseph out of the pit, and sold Joseph to the Ismaelites for twenty pieces of gold; and they brought Joseph down into Egypt.

²⁹

Возврати́ся же Руви́мъ къ ро́ву и не узрѣ́ Іо́сифа въ ро́вѣ: и растерза́ ри́зы своя́,

²⁹

And Ruben returned to the pit, and sees not Joseph in the pit; and he rent his garments.

³⁰

и пріи́де ко бра́тіи своє́й и рече́: о́трочища нѣ́сть, а́зъ же ка́мо иду́ ктому́?

³⁰

And he returned to his brethren and said, The boy is not; and I, whither am I yet to go?

³¹

Взе́мше же ри́зу Іо́сифову, закла́ша ко́злище от ко́зъ и пома́заша ри́зу кро́вію:

³¹

And having taken the coat of Joseph, they slew a kid of the goats, and stained the coat with the blood.

³²

и посла́ша ри́зу пе́струю, и принесо́ша ко отцу́ своєму́ и реко́ша: сію́ обрѣто́хомъ: познава́й, а́ще ри́за сы́на твоєго́ є́сть, или́ ни́?

³²

And they sent the coat of many colours; and they brought it to their father, and said, This have we found; know if it be thy son's coat or no.

³³

И позна́ ю́ и рече́: ри́за сы́на моєго́ є́сть: звѣ́рь лю́тъ снѣде́ єго́: звѣ́рь восхи́ти Іо́сифа.

³³

And he recognised it, and said, It is my son's coat, an evil wild beast has devoured him; a wild beast has carried off Joseph.

³⁴

И растерза́ Іа́ковъ ри́зы своя́, и возложи́ вре́тище на чре́сла своя́, и пла́кашеся сы́на своєго́ дни́ мно́ги.

³⁴

And Jacob rent his clothes, and put sackcloth on his loins, and mourned for his son many days.

³⁵

Собра́шася же вси́ сы́нове єго́ и дще́ри и пріидо́ша утѣ́шити єго́: и не хотя́ше утѣ́шитися, глаго́ля: я́ко сни́ду къ сы́ну моєму́ сѣ́туя во а́дъ. И пла́кася о не́мъ оте́цъ єго́.

³⁵

And all his sons and his daughters gathered themselves together, and came to comfort him; but he would not be comforted, saying, I will go down to my son mourning to Hades; and his father wept for him.

³⁶

Мадіа́не же прода́ша Іо́сифа во Єги́петъ Пентефрі́ю євну́ху фарао́нову, архімагі́ру.

³⁶

And the Madianites sold Joseph into Egypt; to Petephres, the eunuch of Pharao, captain of the guard.
