Und dies sind die Geschlechter Jakobs: Joseph war siebzehn Jahre alt, da er ein Hirte des Viehs ward mit seinen Brüdern; und der Knabe war bei den Kinder Bilhas und Silpas, der Weiber seines Vaters, und brachte vor ihren Vater, wo ein böses Geschrei wider sie war.
Estas fueron las generaciones de Jacob. José, siendo de edad de diez y siete años apacentaba las ovejas con sus hermanos; y el joven estaba con los hijos de Bilha, y con los hijos de Zilpa, mujeres de su padre: y noticiaba José a su padre la mala fama de ellos.
Voici la postérité de Jacob. Joseph, âgé de dix-sept ans, faisait paître le troupeau avec ses frères; cet enfant était auprès des fils de Bilha et des fils de Zilpa, femmes de son père. Et Joseph rapportait à leur père leurs mauvais propos.
E le generazioni di Giacobbe furono quelle. Giuseppe, essendo giovane, d’età di diciassette anni, pasturava le gregge, coi suoi fratelli, co’ figliuoli di Bilha, e coi figliuoli di Zilpa, mogli di suo padre. Ed egli rapportava al padre loro la mala fama che andava attorno di loro.
Estas são as gerações de Jacó. Sendo José de dezessete anos, apascentava as ovelhas com seus irmãos; sendo ainda jovem, andava com os filhos de Bila, e com os filhos de Zilpa, mulheres de seu pai; e José trazia más notícias deles a seu pai.
