Chakruok 50

1 Josef nogore kuom wuon-gi kendo noywak kuome monyodhe.

Then Joseph hugged his father's face, and wept over him, and kissed him.

2 Eka Josef nochiko jotichne ma jothieth mondo olos ringre wuon-gi, Israel gi yath. Kuom mano jothiethgo noloso ringre Jakobo.

Joseph commanded his servants the physicians to embalm his father. So the physicians embalmed Israel.

3 Notieko ndalo piero angʼwen nikech mano e kaka kitundu molos gi yath idwaro mondo otieki. Jo-Misri noywage kuom ndalo piero abiriyo.

Forty days were required for it, for that is how many the days it takes for embalming. The Egyptians mourned for him for seventy days.

4 Ka ndalo mag ywak noserumo, Josef nowuoyo gi jood Farao niya, “Ka unyalo timona ngʼwono, to nyisnauru Farao niya,

When the days for mourning for him had passed, Joseph spoke to the house of Pharaoh, saying, "If now I have found favor in your sight, please speak in the ears of Pharaoh, saying,

5 ‘Kane wuora chiegni tho, nomiyo asingorane ni abiro yike e bur mane okunyo e piny Kanaan. Kuom mano yie adhi aike eka abiro duogo.’”

'My father made me take an oath, saying, "Look, I am dying. Bury me in the tomb that I dug for myself in the land of Canaan." Now therefore, please let me go up and bury my father, and I will return again.'"

6 Farao nowachone niya, “Dhiyo mondo iyik wuonu mana kaka nomiyo isingorine.”

And Pharaoh said, "Go up, and bury your father, in keeping with your oath."

7 Kuom mano Josef nodhi moyiko wuon mare. Jotich Farao duto nodhi kode, ma gin jok midewo mane tiyo e dalane kendo e piny Misri duto,

So Joseph went up to bury his father, and all the officials of Pharaoh went up with him, the elders of his household, and all the elders of the land of Egypt,

8 kaachiel gi joode gi jood owetene kod jood wuon-gi. Nyithindo kod jamni gi dhok kende ema ne owe Goshen.

all the household of Joseph, his brothers, and his father's household. Only their little ones, and their flocks, and their herds, they left in the land of Goshen.

9 Joriemb geche gi Farese bende nodhi kode. Ne en gi oganda maduongʼ.

And there went up with him both chariots and horsemen. It was a very large company.

10 Kane gichopo kar dino cham man Atad, machiegni gi Jordan, negiywago wuon-gi matek kendo malit ahinya; kendo Josef nokawo ndalo abiriyo koywago wuon-gi.

Then they came to the threshing floor of Atad which is across the Jordan, and they mourned there with a great and very bitter lamentation. And he observed seven days of mourning for his father.

11 Kane jo-Kanaan modak kuno oneno ywak man kar dino cham man Atad, negiwacho niya, “Jo-Misri nigi kuyo mar ywak.” Mano ema omiyo iluongo loka Jordan kono ni Abel Mizraim.

When the inhabitants of the land, the Canaanites, saw the mourning at the threshing floor of Atad, they said, "This is a deep mourning by the Egyptians." Therefore, its name was called Abel Mizraim, which is across the Jordan.

12 Kuom mano yawuot Jakobo notimo mana kaka nochikogi:

So his sons did to him just as he commanded them,

13 Negitingʼo ringre nyaka Kanaan kendo giike e rogo man e puodho man Makpela, machiegni gi Mamre, mane Ibrahim ongʼiewo kaka kar yiko kaachiel gi puodhono koa kuom Efron ja-Hiti.

for his sons carried him into the land of Canaan and buried him in the cave of the field of Machpelah near Mamre, which Abraham bought along with the field as a burial site from Ephron the Hethite.

14 Bangʼ yiko wuon-gi, Josef nodok Misri kaachiel gi owetene kod ji mamoko mane odhi kode yiko wuon-gi.

Then after he had buried his father, Joseph returned to Egypt, he and his brothers and all that went up with him to bury his father.

15 Kane owete Josef oneno ni wuon-gi osetho, negiwacho niya, “Mit ka Josef iye nowangʼ kodwa, mi ochulnwa kuor kuom richo duto mane watimone?”

When Joseph's brothers saw that their father was dead, they said, "It may be that Joseph will hate us, and will pay us back in full for all of the evil that we did to him."

16 Kuom mano negioro wach ne Josef kagiwacho niya, “Kane pok wuonu otho noweyonwa wach niya,

So they sent a message to Joseph, saying, "Your father gave this command before he died, saying,

17 ‘Akwayi mondo iwene owetegi richogi kod gima mono mane gitimoni.’ Kuom mano yie iwenwa timbewa duto ma wasetimoni nikech wan jotich Nyasach wuonu.” To kane Josef owinjo wechego, pi wangʼe noton.

Thus you are to tell Joseph, "Now please forgive the transgression of your brothers and their sin, because they did evil to you."' And now, please forgive the transgression of the servants of the God of your father." And Joseph wept when they spoke to him.

18 Eka owetene nobiro ire kendo ogoyo chongegi piny e nyime: Negiwachone niya, “Wan wasumbinigi.”

Then his brothers also went and fell down in front of him, and they said, "Look, we are your slaves."

19 To Josef nowachonegi niya, “Kik ubed maluor. An dakaw kar Nyasaye?

But Joseph said to them, "Do not be afraid, for am I in the place of God?

20 Un ne udwaro mondo utimna marach, to Nyasaye nodwaro mondo obed gima ber; mondo oresgo ngima ji mangʼeny, makoro ngima mana nikech wachno.

As for you, you meant evil against me, but God turned it into good in order to bring about this present result, to save the lives of many people.

21 Omiyo koro kik uluor. Abiro ritou kaachiel gi nyithindu.” Kamano nokweyo chunygi kendo owuoyo kodgi gi muolo.

So therefore, do not be afraid. I will provide for you and your little ones." And he consoled them and spoke kindly to them.

22 Josef nodak Misri, kaachiel gi jood wuon-gi. Nodak higni mia achiel kod apar.

So Joseph lived in Egypt, he, and his father's household. And Joseph lived one hundred ten years.

23 Kendo noneno nyikwa Efraim nyaka tiengʼ mar adek. Bende noneno nyithind Makir wuod Manase kinywolo mokwanogi ka nyithinde.

Joseph saw Ephraim's descendants to the third generation. The children also of Makir, the son of Manasseh, were counted as Joseph's own.

24 Eka Josef nowacho ne owetene niya, “Koro achiegni tho. To Nyasaye biro resou kendo golou e pinyni mi oteru e piny mane osingore ka okwongʼore ne Ibrahim, Isaka kod Jakobo.”

And Joseph said to his brothers, "I am about to die, but God will surely take care of you and bring you up out of this land to the land which he promised to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob."

25 Kendo Josef nomiyo yawuot Israel okwongʼore kendo owachonegi niya, “Nyasaye biro resou, kendo nyaka une ni ukawo chokena ka udhigo.”

Then Joseph made the sons of Israel take an oath, saying, "God will surely take care of you. Then you must carry up my bones from here."

26 Kamano Josef notho ka en ja-higni mia achiel kod apar. Kendo bangʼ kane gisewiro ringre gi yath, negikete e sanduku e piny Misri kuno.

So Joseph died, being one hundred ten years old, and they embalmed him and placed him in a coffin in Egypt.
