New International Version NIV
1 Jacó habitava na terra das peregrinações de seu pai, na terra de Canaã.
1
Jacob lived in the land where his father had stayed, the land of Canaan.
2 Estas são as gerações de Jacó. José, aos dezessete anos de idade, estava com seus irmãos apascentando os rebanhos; sendo ainda jovem, andava com os filhos de Bila, e com os filhos de Zilpa, mulheres de seu pai; e José trazia a seu pai más notícias a respeito deles.
2
This is the account of Jacob’s family line. Joseph, a young man of seventeen, was tending the flocks with his brothers, the sons of Bilhah and the sons of Zilpah, his father’s wives, and he brought their father a bad report about them.
3 Israel amava mais a José do que a todos os seus filhos, porque era filho da sua velhice; e fez-lhe uma túnica de várias cores.
3
Now Israel loved Joseph more than any of his other sons, because he had been born to him in his old age; and he made an ornate robe for him.
4 Vendo, pois, seus irmãos que seu pai o amava mais do que a todos eles, odiavam-no, e não lhe podiam falar pacificamente.
4
When his brothers saw that their father loved him more than any of them, they hated him and could not speak a kind word to him.
5 José teve um sonho, que contou a seus irmãos; por isso o odiaram ainda mais.
5
Joseph had a dream, and when he told it to his brothers, they hated him all the more.
6 Pois ele lhes disse: Ouvi, peço-vos, este sonho que tive:
6
He said to them, “Listen to this dream I had:
7 Estávamos nós atando molhos no campo, e eis que o meu molho, levantando-se, ficou em pé; e os vossos molhos o rodeavam, e se inclinavam ao meu molho.
7
We were binding sheaves of grain out in the field when suddenly my sheaf rose and stood upright, while your sheaves gathered around mine and bowed down to it.”
8 Responderam-lhe seus irmãos: Tu pois, deveras reinarás sobre nós? Tu deveras terás domínio sobre nós? Por isso ainda mais o odiavam por causa dos seus sonhos e das suas palavras.
8
His brothers said to him, “Do you intend to reign over us? Will you actually rule us?” And they hated him all the more because of his dream and what he had said.
9 Teve José outro sonho, e o contou a seus irmãos, dizendo: Tive ainda outro sonho; e eis que o sol, e a lua, e onze estrelas se inclinavam perante mim.
9
Then he had another dream, and he told it to his brothers. “Listen,” he said, “I had another dream, and this time the sun and moon and eleven stars were bowing down to me.”
10 Quando o contou a seu pai e a seus irmãos, repreendeu-o seu pai, e disse-lhe: Que sonho é esse que tiveste? Porventura viremos, eu e tua mãe, e teus irmãos, a inclinar-nos com o rosto em terra diante de ti?
10
When he told his father as well as his brothers, his father rebuked him and said, “What is this dream you had? Will your mother and I and your brothers actually come and bow down to the ground before you?”
11 Seus irmãos, pois, o invejavam; mas seu pai guardava o caso no seu coração.
11
His brothers were jealous of him, but his father kept the matter in mind.
12 Ora, foram seus irmãos apascentar o rebanho de seu pai, em Siquém.
12
Now his brothers had gone to graze their father’s flocks near Shechem,
13 Disse, pois, Israel a José: Não apascentam teus irmãos o rebanho em Siquém? Vem, e enviar-te-ei a eles. Respondeu-lhe José: Eis-me aqui.
13
and Israel said to Joseph, “As you know, your brothers are grazing the flocks near Shechem. Come, I am going to send you to them.” “Very well,” he replied.
14 Disse-lhe Israel: Vai, vê se vão bem teus irmãos, e o rebanho; e traze-me resposta. Assim o enviou do vale de Hebrom; e José foi a Siquém.
14
So he said to him, “Go and see if all is well with your brothers and with the flocks, and bring word back to me.” Then he sent him off from the Valley of Hebron. When Joseph arrived at Shechem,
15 E um homem encontrou a José, que andava errante pelo campo, e perguntou-lhe: Que procuras?
15
a man found him wandering around in the fields and asked him, “What are you looking for?”
16 Respondeu ele: Estou procurando meus irmãos; dize-me, peço-te, onde apascentam eles o rebanho.
16
He replied, “I’m looking for my brothers. Can you tell me where they are grazing their flocks?”
17 Disse o homem: Foram-se daqui; pois ouvi-lhes dizer: Vamos a Dotã. José, pois, seguiu seus irmãos, e os achou em Dotã.
17
“They have moved on from here,” the man answered. “I heard them say, ‘Let’s go to Dothan.’ ” So Joseph went after his brothers and found them near Dothan.
18 Eles o viram de longe e, antes que chegasse aonde estavam, conspiraram contra ele, para o matarem,
18
But they saw him in the distance, and before he reached them, they plotted to kill him.
19 dizendo uns aos outros: Eis que lá vem o sonhador!
19
“Here comes that dreamer!” they said to each other.
20 Vinde pois agora, fmatemo-lo e lancemo-lo numa das covas; e diremos: uma besta-fera o devorou. Veremos, então, o que será dos seus sonhos.
20
“Come now, let’s kill him and throw him into one of these cisterns and say that a ferocious animal devoured him. Then we’ll see what comes of his dreams.”
21 Mas Rúben, ouvindo isso, livrou-o das mãos deles, dizendo: Não lhe tiremos a vida.
21
When Reuben heard this, he tried to rescue him from their hands. “Let’s not take his life,” he said.
22 Também lhes disse Rúben: Não derrameis sangue; lançai-o nesta cova, que está no deserto, e não lanceis mão nele. Disse isto para livrá-lo das mãos deles, a fim de restituí-lo a seu pai.
22
“Don’t shed any blood. Throw him into this cistern here in the wilderness, but don’t lay a hand on him.” Reuben said this to rescue him from them and take him back to his father.
23 Logo que José chegou a seus irmãos, estes o despiram da sua túnica, a túnica de várias cores, que ele trazia;
23
So when Joseph came to his brothers, they stripped him of his robe—the ornate robe he was wearing—
24 e tomando-o, lançaram-no na cova; mas a cova estava vazia, não havia água nela.
24
and they took him and threw him into the cistern. The cistern was empty; there was no water in it.
25 Depois sentaram-se para comer; e, levantando os olhos, viram uma caravana de ismaelitas que vinha de Gileade; nos seus camelos traziam tragacanto, bálsamo e mirra, que iam levar ao Egito.
25
As they sat down to eat their meal, they looked up and saw a caravan of Ishmaelites coming from Gilead. Their camels were loaded with spices, balm and myrrh, and they were on their way to take them down to Egypt.
26 Disse Judá a seus irmãos: De que nos aproveita matar nosso irmão e encobrir o seu sangue?
26
Judah said to his brothers, “What will we gain if we kill our brother and cover up his blood?
27 Vinde, vendamo-lo a esses ismaelitas, e não seja nossa mão sobre ele; porque é nosso irmao, nossa carne. E escutaram-no seus irmãos.
27
Come, let’s sell him to the Ishmaelites and not lay our hands on him; after all, he is our brother, our own flesh and blood.” His brothers agreed.
28 Ao passarem os negociantes midianitas, tiraram José, alçando-o da cova, e venderam-no por vinte siclos de prata aos ismaelitas, os quais o levaram para o Egito.
28
So when the Midianite merchants came by, his brothers pulled Joseph up out of the cistern and sold him for twenty shekels of silver to the Ishmaelites, who took him to Egypt.
29 Ora, Rúben voltou � cova, e eis que José não estava na cova; pelo que rasgou as suas vestes
29
When Reuben returned to the cistern and saw that Joseph was not there, he tore his clothes.
30 e, tornando a seus irmãos, disse: O menino não aparece; e eu, aonde irei?
30
He went back to his brothers and said, “The boy isn’t there! Where can I turn now?”
31 Tomaram, então, a túnica de José, mataram um cabrito, e tingiram a túnica no sangue.
31
Then they got Joseph’s robe, slaughtered a goat and dipped the robe in the blood.
32 Enviaram a túnica de várias cores, mandando levá-la a seu pai e dizer-lhe: Achamos esta túnica; vê se é a túnica de teu filho, ou não.
32
They took the ornate robe back to their father and said, “We found this. Examine it to see whether it is your son’s robe.”
33 Ele a reconheceu e exclamou: A túnica de meu filho! uma besta-fera o devorou; certamente José foi despedaçado.
33
He recognized it and said, “It is my son’s robe! Some ferocious animal has devoured him. Joseph has surely been torn to pieces.”
34 Então Jacó rasgou as suas vestes, e pôs saco sobre os seus lombos e lamentou seu filho por muitos dias.
34
Then Jacob tore his clothes, put on sackcloth and mourned for his son many days.
35 E levantaram-se todos os seus filhos e todas as suas filhas, para o consolarem; ele, porém, recusou ser consolado, e disse: Na verdade, com choro hei de descer para meu filho até o Seol. Assim o chorou seu pai.
35
All his sons and daughters came to comfort him, but he refused to be comforted. “No,” he said, “I will continue to mourn until I join my son in the grave.” So his father wept for him.
36 Os midianitas venderam José no Egito a Potifar, oficial de Faraó, capitão da guarda.
36
Meanwhile, the Midianites sold Joseph in Egypt to Potiphar, one of Pharaoh’s officials, the captain of the guard.
