Tunica multicoloră
The coat of many colors
Romanian
Iacov, numit și Israel, locuia în țara Canaanului, unde locuise și tatăl său. Fiul lui, Iosif, avea șaptesprezece ani și avea grijă de turmă împreună cu frații săi. Printre ei erau fiii Bilhei și ai Zilpei, soțiile lui Iacov. Iosif i-a povestit tatălui său lucruri rele despre frații lui.
English translation
Jacob, also called Israel, lived in the land of Canaan, where his father had also lived. His son Joseph was seventeen years old and cared for the flock with his brothers. Among them were the sons of Bilhah and Zilpah, Jacob’s wives. Joseph told his father bad things about his brothers.
Romanian
Iacov îl iubea pe Iosif mai mult decât pe ceilalți copii, pentru că Iosif se născuse la bătrânețea lui Iacov. I-a făcut o tunică, o haină în multe culori. Frații au văzut că tatăl lor îl iubea mai mult. Din această cauză, îl urau și nu puteau să-i vorbească frumos.
English translation
Jacob loved Joseph more than his other children because Joseph had been born when Jacob was old. He made him a tunic, a coat with many colors. His brothers saw that their father loved him more. Because of this, they hated him and could not speak kindly to him.
