Genesis 50
1 And Joseph fell upon his father's face, and wept upon him, and kissed him.
Quod cernens Ioseph, ruit super faciem patris flens et deosculans eum.
2 And Joseph commanded his servants the physicians to embalm his father. And the physicians embalmed Israel.
Praecepitque servis suis medicis ut aromatibus condirent patrem.
3 And forty days were fulfilled for him, for so are fulfilled the days of embalming. And the Egyptians wept for him seventy days.
Quibus iussa explentibus, transierunt quadraginta dies: iste quippe mos erat cadaverum conditorum. flevitque eum Aegyptus septuaginta diebus.
4 And when the days of weeping for him were past, Joseph spoke to the house of Pharaoh, saying, If now I have found favor in your eyes, speak, I pray you, in the ears of Pharaoh, saying,
Et expleto planctus tempore, locutus est Ioseph ad familiam Pharaonis: Si inveni gratiam in conspectu vestro, loquimini in auribus Pharaonis:
5 My father made me swear, saying, Lo, I die. In my grave which I have dug for me in the land of Canaan, there shall thou bury me. Now therefore let me go up, I pray thee, and bury my father, and I will come again.
eo quod pater meus adiuraverit me, dicens: En morior, in sepulchro meo quod fodi mihi in terra Chanaan, sepelies me. Ascendam igitur, et sepeliam patrem meum, ac revertar.
6 And Pharaoh said, Go up, and bury thy father, according as he made thee swear.
Dixitque ei Pharao: Ascende et sepeli patrem tuum sicut adiuratus es.
7 And Joseph went up to bury his father, and with him went up all the servants of Pharaoh, the elders of his house, and all the elders of the land of Egypt,
Quo ascendente, ierunt cum eo omnes senes domus Pharaonis, cunctique maiores natu Terrae Aegypti:
8 and all the house of Joseph, and his brothers, and his father's house. Only their little ones, and their flocks, and their herds, they left in the land of Goshen.
domus Ioseph cum fratribus suis, absque parvulis et gregibus, atque armentis quae dereliquerunt in Terra Gessen.
9 And there went up with him both chariots and horsemen. And it was a very great company.
Habuit quoque in comitatu currus et equites: et facta est turba non modica.
10 And they came to the threshing floor of Atad, which is beyond the Jordan. And there they lamented with a very great and sore lamentation. And he made a mourning for his father seven days.
Veneruntque ad Aream Arad, quae sita est trans Iordanem: ubi celebrantes exequias planctu magno atque vehementi, impleverunt septem dies.
11 And when the inhabitants of the land, the Canaanites, saw the mourning in the floor of Atad, they said, This is a grievous mourning to the Egyptians. Therefore the name of it was called Abel-mizraim, which is beyond the Jordan.
Quod cum vidissent habitatores Terrae Chanaan, dixerunt: Planctus magnus est iste Aegyptiis. Et idcirco vocatum est nomen loci illius, Planctus Aegypti.
12 And his sons did to him according as he commanded them.
Fecerunt ergo filii Iacob sicut praeceperat eis:
13 For his sons carried him into the land of Canaan, and buried him in the cave of the field of Machpelah, which Abraham bought with the field, for a possession of a burying place, of Ephron the Hittite, before Mamre.
Et portantes eum in Terram Chanaan, sepelierunt eum in spelunca duplici, quam emerat Abraham cum agro in possessionem sepulchri ab Ephron Hethaeo contra faciem Mambre.
14 And Joseph returned into Egypt, he, and his brothers, and all who went up with him to bury his father, after he had buried his father.
Reversusque est Ioseph in Aegyptum cum fratribus suis, et omni comitatu, sepulto patre.
15 And when Joseph's brothers saw that their father was dead, they said, It may be that Joseph will hate us, and will fully requite us all the evil which we did to him.
Quo mortuo, timentes fratres eius, et mutuo colloquentes: Ne forte memor sit iniuriae quam passus est, et reddat nobis omne malum quod fecimus,
16 And they sent a message to Joseph, saying, Thy father commanded before he died, saying,
mandaverunt ei dicentes: Pater tuus praecepit nobis antequam moreretur,
17 So shall ye say to Joseph, Forgive, I pray thee now, the transgression of thy brothers, and their sin, because they did to thee evil. And now, we pray thee, forgive the transgression of the servants of the God of thy father. And Joseph wept when they spoke to him.
ut haec tibi verbis illius diceremus: Obsecro ut obliviscaris sceleris fratrum tuorum, et peccati atque malitiae quam exercuerunt in te: nos quoque oramus ut servo Dei patri tuo dimittas iniquitatem hanc. Quibus auditis flevit Ioseph.
18 And his brothers also went and fell down before his face, and they said, Behold, we are thy servants.
Veneruntque ad eum fratres sui: et proni adorantes in terram dixerunt: Servi tui sumus.
19 And Joseph said to them, Fear not, for am I in the place of God?
Quibus ille respondit: Nolite timere: num Dei possumus resistere voluntati?
20 And as for you, ye meant evil against me, but God meant it for good, to bring to pass, as it is this day, to save much people alive.
Vos cogitastis de me malum: sed Deus vertit illud in bonum, ut exaltaret me, sicut in praesentiarum cernitis, et salvos faceret multos populos.
21 Now therefore fear ye not. I will nourish you, and your little ones. And he comforted them, and spoke kindly to them.
Nolite timere: ego pascam vos et parvulos vestros. consolatusque est eos, et blande ac leniter est locutus.
22 And Joseph dwelt in Egypt, he, and his father's house. And Joseph lived a hundred and ten years.
Et habitavit in Aegypto cum omni domo patris sui: vixitque centum decem annis.
23 And Joseph saw Ephraim's sons of the third generation. Also the sons of Machir the son of Manasseh were born upon Joseph's knees.
Et vidit Ephraim filios usque ad tertiam generationem. Filii quoque Machir filii Manasse nati sunt in genibus Ioseph.
24 And Joseph said to his brothers, I die, but God will surely visit you, and bring you up out of this land to the land which he swore to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.
Quibus transactis, locutus est fratribus suis: Post mortem meam Deus visitabit vos, et ascendere vos faciet de terra ista ad terram quam iuravit Abraham, Isaac, et Iacob.
25 And Joseph took an oath of the sons of Israel, saying, God will surely visit you, and ye shall carry up my bones from here.
Cumque adiurasset eos atque dixisset: Deus visitabit vos: asportate ossa mea vobiscum de loco isto:
26 So Joseph died, being a hundred and ten years old, and they embalmed him, and he was put in a coffin in Egypt.
mortuus est, expletis centum decem vitae suae annis. Et conditus aromatibus, repositus est in loculo in Aegypto.
