Genesis 50
1 Then Joseph fell upon his father’s face, wept over him, and kissed him.
Nihotrak’ an-daharan-drae’eo t’Iosefe le nangoihoy ama’e vaho nañorok’ aze.
2 And Joseph directed the physicians in his service to embalm his father Israel. So they embalmed him,
Linili’ Iosefe o mpanaha mpitoro’eo hañoloñe an-drae’e. Le hinolonkolo’ o mpanahao t’Israele;
3 taking the forty days required to complete the embalming. And the Egyptians mourned for him seventy days.
efa-polo andro ty nirì’ iereo ama’e, amy te izay o andro mahafonitse ty fañolonkoloñan-jañahareo. Nandala fitom-polo andro ho aze o nte-Mitsraimeo.
4 When the days of mourning had passed, Joseph said to Pharaoh’s court, “If I have found favor in your eyes, please tell Pharaoh that
Ie niheneke o androm-pandalàñe azeo le hoe ty lañona’ Iosefe amo añ’anjomba’ i Paròo, Aa naho nahatendreke isoke am-pahaisaha’areo iraho le saontsio an-dravembia’ i Parò ty hoe:
5 my father made me swear an oath when he said, ‘I am about to die. You must bury me in the tomb that I dug for myself in the land of Canaan.’ Now let me go and bury my father, and then return.”
Nampifantàn-draeko ahy ty hoe: Ingo fa hikenkan-draho. Le aleveño an-kibory hinaliko ho am-batako an-tane Kanàne ao. Aa le angao iraho hionjom-b’eo handeveñe an-draeko vaho himpoly.
6 Pharaoh replied, “Go up and bury your father, as he made you swear to do.”
Hoe ty natoi’ i Parò, Mionjona, aleveño ty rae’o amy nampifantà’e azoy.
7 Then Joseph went to bury his father, and all the servants of Pharaoh accompanied him—the elders of Pharaoh’s household and all the elders of the land of Egypt—
Aa le nionjoñe t’Iosefe handeveñe an-drae’e. Fonga nindre ama’e ze mpitoro’ i Parò naho o roandria añ’ anjomba’e ao naho o roandria’ ty tane Mitsraime iabio,
8 along with all of Joseph’s household, and his brothers, and his father’s household. Only their children and flocks and herds were left in Goshen.
naho ty añ’anjomba’ Iosefe iaby, o rahalahi’eo vaho ty añ’ anjomban-drae’e. Fe napok’ an-tane Gosena ao o ana’iareoo naho o mpirai-trokeo naho o lia-raikeo.
9 Chariots and horsemen alike went up with him, and it was an exceedingly large procession.
Nindre-lia ama’e o sarete reketse mpindaio. Nivalobohòke jabajaba.
10 When they reached the threshing floor of Atad, which is across the Jordan, they lamented and wailed loudly, and Joseph mourned for his father seven days.
Ie nivotrak’ an-toem-pamofoha’ i Atade, alafe’ Iordaney, le nanao fandalàñe jabajaba nampioremeñe; fito andro ty nandalà’e an-drae’e.
11 When the Canaanites of the land saw the mourning at the threshing floor of Atad, they said, “This is a solemn ceremony of mourning by the Egyptians.” Thus the place across the Jordan is called Abel-mizraim.
Ie niisa’ o nte-Kanàne mpimoneñe amy taneio i fandalàñe an-tanem-pamofoha’ i Atadey le hoe iereo. Fandalàñe mampioje o anoe’ o nte-Mitsraimeo. Aa le natao Abele Mitsraime i tane andafe’ Iordaney zay,
12 So Jacob’s sons did as he had charged them.
naho nihenefe’ o ana-dahi’eo i nafè’ey:
13 They carried him to the land of Canaan and buried him in the cave at Machpelah in the field near Mamre, which Abraham had purchased from Ephron the Hittite as a burial site.
Nitakone’ iereo mb’ an-tane Kanàne mb’eo vaho naleve’ iareo an-dakato an-tete’ i Makpelà ao, i vinili’ i Avrahame rekets’ i tonday marine i Mamrè amy Efrone nte-Khete ho tanen-dona’ey.
14 After Joseph had buried his father, he returned to Egypt with his brothers and all who had gone with him to bury his father.
Ie nandeveñe an-drae’e t’Iosefe le nimpoly mb’e Mitsraime añe rekets’ o rahalahi’eo naho i maro nindre nionjoñe ama’e mb’eo nandeveñe an-drae’ey.
15 When Joseph’s brothers saw that their father was dead, they said, “What if Joseph bears a grudge? Then he will surely repay us for all the evil that we did to him.”
Aa ie nioni’ o rahalahi’ Iosefeo te nivilasy ty rae’ iareo le hoe ty fitsakorea’ iareo: Hera mitan-kabò aman-tika t’Iosefe hañondroha’e aman-tikañe ze fonga raty nanoan-tika?
16 So they sent word to Joseph, saying, “Before he died, your father commanded,
Aa le nañitrik’ am’Iosefe iereo nanao ty hoe, Hoe ty nafèn-drae’o aolo’ t’ie nihomake,
17 ‘This is what you are to say to Joseph: I beg you, please forgive the transgression and sin of your brothers, for they did you wrong.’ So now, Joseph, please forgive the transgression of the servants of the God of your father.” When their message came to him, Joseph wept.
Zao ty ho enta’ areo am’ Iosefe: Ehe apoho ty tahiñe nanoa’ o rahalahi’oo naho i hakeo nanoe’ iereo nijoy azoy. Aa ie henaneo, ehe apoho ty hakeo’ o mpitoron’ Añaharen-drae’oo. Naharovetse t’Iosefe i enta’ iareo ama’ey.
18 His brothers also came to him, bowed down before him, and said, “We are your slaves!”
Nimb’eo amy zao o rahalahi’eo, nibabok’ añ’atrefa’eo, nanao ty hoe, Intoan-jahay fa ondevo’o.
19 But Joseph replied, “Do not be afraid. Am I in the place of God?
Aa hoe t’Iosefe am’ iereo, Ko hembañe, mpisolo an’ Andrianañahare v’o ahoo?
20 As for you, what you intended against me for evil, God intended for good, in order to accomplish a day like this—to preserve the lives of many people.
Inahareo ka, toe nikinia raty amako fe sinafirin’ Añahare ho soa, hiboaha’ o oniñe henaneo, hampitambeloma’e ondaty mitozantoza.
21 Therefore do not be afraid. I will provide for you and your little ones.” So Joseph reassured his brothers and spoke kindly to them.
Aa le ko mahimahiñe, fa ho fahanako nahareo naho o keleia’ areoo. Amy hoe zay ty nampanintsiña’e, ie nisaontsy añ’arofo’ iareo ao.
22 Now Joseph and his father’s household remained in Egypt, and Joseph lived to the age of 110.
Nimoneñe e Mitsraime ao t’Iosefe, ie naho ty hasavereñan-drae’e; vaho niveloñe zato-tsi-folo taoñe.
23 He saw Ephraim’s sons to the third generation, and indeed the sons of Machir son of Manasseh were brought up on Joseph’s knees.
Niisa’ Iosefe o ana’ i Efraimeo pak’ ami’ty tariratse faha telo; nibeizeñe añ’ ongo’ Iosefe ka o ana’ i Makire, ana’ i Menasèo.
24 Then Joseph said to his brothers, “I am about to die, but God will surely visit you and bring you up from this land to the land He promised on oath to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.”
Le hoe t’Iosefe aman-drahalahi’e, fa hikenkan-draho; le toe hitotsak’ ama’areo t’i Andrianañahare hinday anahareo hienga an-tane atoy homb’an-tane nifantà’e amy Avrahame, am’ Ietsàke naho am’Iakòbe.
25 And Joseph made the sons of Israel take an oath and said, “God will surely attend to you, and then you must carry my bones up from this place.”
Aa le nampifantà’ Iosefe amo ana’ Israeleo ty hoe, Toe hañimba anahareo t’i Andrianañahare, vaho hakare’ areo an-tane atoy o taolakoo.
26 So Joseph died at the age of 110. And they embalmed his body and placed it in a coffin in Egypt.
Nihomake t’Iosefe, ie ni-zato-tsi-folo taoñe, le naholonkoloñe naho napololòtse an-tsandòke e Mitsraime ao.
