Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
1And it came to pass after these things, that one told Joseph, Behold, thy father is sick: and he took with him his two sons, Manasseh and Ephraim.
1A MAHOPE iho o keia mau mea, hai aku la kekahi ia Iosepa, Ua mai kou makuakane. Lawe ae la ia i kana mau keikikane, ia Manase laua o Eperaima.
2And one told Jacob, and said, Behold, thy son Joseph cometh unto thee: and Israel strengthened himself, and sat upon the bed.
2A hai ae la kekahi ia Iakoba, i ae la, Eia ae kau keiki o Iosepa, ke hele mai la iou nei. Hooikaika ae la o Iseraela, a noho iho la ma kahi moe.
3And Jacob said unto Joseph, God Almighty appeared unto me at Luz in the land of Canaan, and blessed me,
3Olelo aku la o Iakoba ia Iosepa, Ikea mai la ke Akua mana ia'u ma Luza, ma ka aina o Kanaana, a hoomaikai mai la ia ia'u.
4And said unto me, Behold, I will make thee fruitful, and multiply thee, and I will make of thee a multitude of people; and will give this land to thy seed after thee for an everlasting possession.
4I mai la, E hoomahuahua aku au ia oe; a e hoonui aku ia oe, a e hoolilo ia oe i lahuikanaka nui loa, a e haawi aku i keia aina, no kau poe mamo mahope ou, i hooilina mau loa.
5¶ And now thy two sons, Ephraim and Manasseh, which were born unto thee in the land of Egypt before I came unto thee into Egypt, are mine; as Reuben and Simeon, they shall be mine.
5A o na keiki au elua, i hanauia mai nau ma ka aiua i Aigupita nei, i ka wa mamua aku o ko'u hele ana mai ia oe i Aigupita nei, na'u no laua. O Eperaima a o Manase, e like me Reubena a me Simeona, pela no laua na'u.
6And thy issue, which thou begettest after them, shall be thine, and shall be called after the name of their brethren in their inheritance.
6A o kau mau keiki i hanauia mai nau, mahope mai o laua e kapaia lakou ma ka inoa o ko lakou mau kaikuaana ma ko lakou noho ana.
7And as for me, when I came from Padan, Rachel died by me in the land of Canaan in the way, when yet there was but a little way to come unto Ephrath: and I buried her there in the way of Ephrath; the same is Beth-lehem.
7I ko'u hele ana mai, mai Padana mai, make ae la o Rahela ma ko'u aoao, ma ka aina o Kanaana, ma ke ala, kokoke e hiki aku i Eperata, a kanu iho la au ia ia malaila ma ke ala ma Eperata, oia hoi o Betelehema.
8And Israel beheld Joseph’s sons, and said, Who are these?
8A ike aku la o Iseraela i na keiki a Iosepa, ninau aku la ia, Owai laua nei?
9And Joseph said unto his father, They are my sons, whom God hath given me in this place . And he said, Bring them, I pray thee, unto me, and I will bless them.
9I mai la o Iosepa i kona makuakane, O laua nei na keiki a'u, a ke Akua i haawi mai ai na'u ma keia wahi. I mai la kela, E hoonoho oe ia laua imua o'u, a e hoomaikai aku au ia laua.
10Now the eyes of Israel were dim for age, so that he could not see. And he brought them near unto him; and he kissed them, and embraced them.
10Kaumaha no na maka o Iseraela, no ka elemakule, aole hiki ia ia ke nana; a hoonoho mai kela ia laua imua ona, a honi aku la oia ia laua, a puliki iho la.
11And Israel said unto Joseph, I had not thought to see thy face: and, lo, God hath shewed me also thy seed.
11I ae la o Iseraela ia Iosepa, Aole au i manao e ike aku i kou maka, aia hoi, ua hoike mai ke Akua ia'u i kau mau keiki.
12And Joseph brought them out from between his knees, and he bowed himself with his face to the earth.
12A lawe mai la o Iosepa ia laua mawaena mai o kona mau kuli, a kulou iho la ia me ka maka ilalo i ka honua.
13And Joseph took them both, Ephraim in his right hand toward Israel’s left hand, and Manasseh in his left hand toward Israel’s right hand, and brought them near unto him.
13Lawe iho la o Iosepa ia laua a elua, ia Eperaima i kona lima akau, ma ka lima hema o Iseraela, a ia Manase, i kona lima hema ma ka lima akau o Iseraela, a hoonoho iho la ia laua imua ona.
14And Israel stretched out his right hand, and laid it upon Ephraim’s head, who was the younger, and his left hand upon Manasseh’s head, guiding his hands wittingly; for Manasseh was the firstborn.
14Hohola aku la o Iseraela i kona lima akau, a kau iho la ma ke poo o Eperaima, oia hoi ke kaikaina, a i kona lima hema hoi, ma ke poo o Manase: kau akamai no ia i kona lima; no ka mea, o Manase ka hanau mua.
15¶ And he blessed Joseph, and said, God, before whom my fathers Abraham and Isaac did walk, the God which fed me all my life long unto this day,
15Hoomaikai mai la oia ia Iosepa, i mai la, Na ke Akua, ka mea a ko'u mau makua o Aberahama a me Isaaka i hele ae imua ona, na ke Akua nana wau i malama mai, mai ko'u wa uuku a hiki loa mai i neia la;
16The Angel which redeemed me from all evil, bless the lads; and let my name be named on them, and the name of my fathers Abraham and Isaac; and let them grow into a multitude in the midst of the earth.
16Na ka Anela i hoopakele mai ia'u mai loko mai o ka hewa a pau, e hoomaikai ia mau keiki, a e heaia ko'u inoa maluna o laua, a me ka inoa o ko'u makua o Aberahama, a me Isaaka, a e laha loa laua i poe nui iwaena o ka honua.
17And when Joseph saw that his father laid his right hand upon the head of Ephraim, it displeased him: and he held up his father’s hand, to remove it from Ephraim’s head unto Manasseh’s head.
17A ike aku la o Iosepa, ua kau aku kona makuakane i kona lima akau ma ke poo o Eperaima, ua hewa ia i kona maka; hapai ae la ia i ka lima o kona makuakane e hoihoi ae, mai ke poe ae o Eperaima a i ke poo o Manase.
18And Joseph said unto his father, Not so, my father: for this is the firstborn; put thy right hand upon his head.
18I aku la o Iosepa i kona makuakane, Aole pela, e ko'u makuakane, o ke kaikuaana keia, e kau oe i kou lima akau maluna o kona poe.
19And his father refused, and said, I know it , my son, I know it: he also shall become a people, and he also shall be great: but truly his younger brother shall be greater than he, and his seed shall become a multitude of nations.
19Hoole mai la kona makuakane, i mai la, Ua ike au, e kuu keiki, ua ike au, e lilo no hoi ia i lahuikanaka a e nui no ia, aka, o kona kaikaina, e kela aku kona nui mamua o keia, a e lilo ana ia i lahuikanaka nui loa.
20And he blessed them that day, saying, In thee shall Israel bless, saying, God make thee as Ephraim and as Manasseh: and he set Ephraim before Manasseh.
20Hoomaikai aku la oia ia laua ia la, i aku la, iloko ou e hoomaikai aku ka Iseraela, me ka i ana aku, E hoohalike mai ke Akua ia oe me Eperaima a me Manase. Hoonoho no oia ia Eperaima mamua o Manase.
21And Israel said unto Joseph, Behold, I die: but God shall be with you, and bring you again unto the land of your fathers.
21I mai la o Iseraela ia Iosepa, Eia hoi, na kokoke au e make, a e noho ana no ke Akua me oukou, a e hoihoi aku no ia ia oukou i ka aina o ko oukou poe makua.
22Moreover I have given to thee one portion above thy brethren, which I took out of the hand of the Amorite with my sword and with my bow.
22Ua haawi hoi au in oe i kekahi puu waiwai maluna o kou poe hanauna, i ka mea a'u i loaa ai ma ka lima o ka Amora, me kuu pahikaua a me kuu kakaka.
