< Genesis 47 >

1 Then Joseph went to Pharaoh, and said, My father and my brothers with their flocks and their herds and all they have, are come from Canaan, and are now in the land of Goshen.
HELE ae la o Iosepa, hai aku la ia Parao, i aku la, Ua hiki mai nei ko'u makuakane a me ko'u poe hanauna, a me ka lakou hipa, a me ka lakou holoholona, a me ka lakou mea a pau, mai ka aina mai o Kanaana, aia hoi lakou ma ka aina, i Gosena.
2 And he took five of his brothers to Pharaoh.
Lawe ae la ia i elima o kona poe hanauna, hoonoho iho la ia lakou imua o Parao.
3 And Pharaoh said to them, What is your business? And they said, Your servants are keepers of sheep, as our fathers were before us.
Olelo mai la o Parao i na hoahanau o Iosepa, Heaha ka oukou oihana? I mai la lakou ia Parao, He poe kahuhipa kau poe kauwa nei, o makou a me ko makou poe makua.
4 And they said to Pharaoh, We have come to make a living in this land, because we have no grass for our flocks in the land of Canaan; so now let your servants make a place for themselves in the land of Goshen.
I hou mai la lakou ia Parao, Ua hele mai nei makou e noho ma keia aina, no ka mea, aole ai na ka poe holoholona a kau poe kauwa, no ka nui o ka wi ma ka aina o Kanaana. No ia mea, ke noi aku nei makou ia oe, e noho makou ma ka aina i Gosena.
5 And Pharaoh said to Joseph, Let them have the land of Goshen; and if there are any able men among them, put them over my cattle.
A olelo mai la o Parao ia Iosepa, i mai la, Ua hiki mai iou la kou makuakane a me na hoahanau ou.
6 And Jacob and his sons came to Joseph in Egypt, and when word of it came to the ears of Pharaoh, king of Egypt, he said to Joseph, Your father and brothers have come to you; all the land of Egypt is before you; let your father and your brothers have the best of the land for their resting-place.
O ka aina o Aigupita, eia no ia imua ou: i ka aina maikai nui, e hoonoho ai oe i kou makuakane a me na hoahanau ou: e noho iho lakou i ka aina o Gosena. A ina i ike oe i na kanaka akamai o lakou, e hoonoho oe ia lakou i mau kahu no ka'u poe holoholona,
7 Then Joseph made his father Jacob come before Pharaoh, and Jacob gave him his blessing.
Alakai mai la o Iosepa ia Iakoba i kona makuakane, a hoonoho mai la ia ia imua o Parao. Hoomaikai aku la o Iakoba ia Parao.
8 And Pharaoh said to him, How old are you?
Ninau mai la o Parao ia Iakoba, Ehia la na makahiki o kou ola ana?
9 And Jacob said, The years of my wanderings have been a hundred and thirty; small in number and full of sorrow have been the years of my life, and less than the years of the wanderings of my fathers.
I aku la o Iakoba ia Parao, O na la o ko'u mau makahiki i noho malihini ai, hookahi ia haneri makahiki a me kanakolu. He hapa a he ino hoi na la o ko'u mau makahiki e ola nei; aole nae i loaa ia'u na la a me na makahiki o ko'u poe kupuna i ko lakou noho malihini ana.
10 And Jacob gave Pharaoh his blessing, and went out from before him.
Hoomaikai aku la o Iakoba ia Parao, a hele aku la mai ke alo aku o Parao.
11 And Joseph made a place for his father and his brothers, and gave them a heritage in the land of Egypt, in the best of the land, the land of Rameses, as Pharaoh had given orders.
Hoonoho iho la o Iosepa i kona makuakane a me kona poe hoahanau, a haawi aku la oia ia lakou i wahi e noho ai ma ka aina o Aigupita, i kahi aina maikai, i ka aina o Ramese, e like me ke kanoha ana mai a Parao.
12 And Joseph took care of his father and his brothers and all his father's people, giving them food for the needs of their families.
Malama aku la o Iosepa i kona makuakane, a me kona poe hoahanau, a me ka ohana a kona makuakane a pau i ka ai, e like me na waha o ka ohana.
13 Now there was no food to be had in all the land, so that all Egypt and Canaan were wasted from need of food.
Aole ai ma ka aina a pau, no ka mea, ua hanahana loa ka wi. Oki loa iho la ka aina o Aigupita a me ka aina o Kanaana i ka wi.
14 And all the money in Egypt and in the land of Canaan which had been given for grain, came into the hands of Joseph: and he put it in Pharaoh's house.
Hooiliili iho la o Iosepa i ke kala a pau loa ma ka aina o Aigupita, a ma ka aina o Kanaana, no ka ai a lakou i kuai ai; a lawe mai la o Iosepa i ke kala iloko o ka hale o Parao.
15 And when all the money in Egypt and Canaan was gone, the Egyptians came to Joseph, and said, Give us bread; would you have us come to destruction before your eyes? for we have no more money.
Pau iho la ko kala ma ka aina o Aigupita, a ma ka aina o Kanaana, a hele mai la ko Aigupita a pau io Iosepa la, i mai la, Ho mai i ai na makou, no ke aha la makou e make ai imua o kou alo i ka pau ana o ke kala?
16 And Joseph said, Give me your cattle; I will give you grain in exchange for your cattle if your money is all gone.
I mai la Iosepa ia lakou, Ina i pau ke kala, ho mai i ka oukou holoholona, a e haawi aku au i ai na oukou no ka oukou holoholona.
17 So they took their cattle to Joseph and he gave them bread in exchange for their horses and flocks and herds and asses, so all that year he gave them food in exchange for their cattle.
Lawe mai la lakou i ka lakou holoholona ia Iosepa, a haawi aku la o Iosepa i ai na iakou, no na lio, a no na hipa, a no na bipi, a no na hoki, a malama aku la oia ia lakou i ka ai ia makahiki, no ka lakou holoholona.
18 And when that year was ended, they came to him in the second year, and said, We may not keep it from our lord's knowledge that all our money is gone, and all the herds of cattle are my lord's; there is nothing more to give my lord but our bodies and our land;
A pau ae la ia makahiki, hele mai la lakou ia ia, i ka lua o na makahiki, i mai la ia ia, Aole makou e huna mai ko makou haku aku, i ka pau ana o ko makou kala, a me ka makou holoholona ia oe i ko makou haku. Aohe mea i koe imua ou, o ko makou kino, a me ko makou aina wale no.
19 Are we to come to destruction before your eyes, we and our land? take us and our land and give us bread; and we and our land will be servants to Pharaoh; and give us seed so that we may have life and the land may not become waste.
No ke aha la makou e make ai imua o kou mau maka, o makou a me ko makou aina! E kuai oe ia makou a me ko makou aina, no ka ai, a lilo makou a me ko makou aina i kauwa na Parao. E haawi mai hoi i hua, i ola makou, sole hoi e make, i ole ai e neoneo ka aina.
20 So Joseph got all the land in Egypt for Pharaoh; for every Egyptian gave up his land in exchange for food, because of their great need; so all the land became Pharaoh's.
Kuai iho la o Iosepa i ka aina a pau i Aigupita no Parao, no ka mea, kuai aku la na kanaka a pau o Aigupita i ko lakou aina, no ka mea, ua hauahana loa ka wi maluna o lakou, a lilo ae la ka aina no Parao.
21 And as for the people, he made servants of them, town by town, from one end of Egypt to the other.
A lawe ae la ia i kanaka o kekahi kihi, a hoonoho ia lakou ma na kulanakauhale ma kela kihi o ka aina.
22 Only he did not take the land of the priests, for the priests had their food given them by Pharaoh, and having what Pharaoh gave them, they had no need to give up their land.
O ka aina o na kahuna, aole ia i kuai, no ka mea, na Parao mai, ka na kahuna, a ai iho la lakou i ka mea a Parao i haawi mai ai na lakou, no ia mea, aole lakou i kuai i ko lakou aina.
23 Then Joseph said to the people, I have made you and your land this day the property of Pharaoh; here is seed for you to put in your fields.
Olelo iho o Iosepa i kanaka, Eia hoi, ua kuai au ia oukou i keia la no Parao, a me ko oukou aina; eia no ka hua na oukou e kanu i ka aina.
24 And when the grain is cut, you are to give a fifth part to Pharaoh, and four parts will be yours for seed and food, and for your families and your little ones.
Eia hoi kekahi, i ka hua ana mai, e haawi oukou i ka hapalima na Parao, a koe no eha mau hapa na oukou, i mea kanu o ka aina, a i mea ai na oukou, a na ko oukou kanaka, a i mea ai hoi na ka oukou kamalii.
25 And they said to him, Truly you have kept us from death; may we have grace in your eyes, and we will be Pharaoh's servants.
I mai la lakou, Ua hoola mai oe ia makou, ina e loaa ia makou ka lokomaikaiia mai imua o na maka o ko'u haku, a e lilo auanei makou i poe kauwa na Parao.
26 Then Joseph made a law which is in force to this day, that Pharaoh was to have the fifth part; only the land of the priests did not become his.
Hoopaa iho la o Iosepa ia mea i kanawai, mai ia manawa mai, ma ka aina o Aigupita, na Parao ka hapalima o ka ai; o ka aina o na kahuna wale no ka i koe, aole ia i lilo na Parao.
27 And so Israel was living among the Egyptians in the land of Goshen; and they got property there, and became very great in numbers and in wealth.
Noho iho la o Iseraela, ma ka aina o Aigupita, i ka aina o Gosena, a loaa mai la ia lakou ka waiwai ilaila, a hanau mai la lakou, a lilo ae la i poe nui loa.
28 And Jacob was living in the land of Goshen for seventeen years; so the years of his life were a hundred and forty-seven.
O na makahiki o ka noho ana o Iakoba i ka aina o Aigupita, he umikumamahiku: a o na makahiki a pau o ke ola ana o Iakoba, hookahi haneri makahiki a me kanahakumamahiku.
29 And the time of his death came near, and he sent for his son Joseph and said to him, If now I am dear to you, put your hand under my leg and take an oath that you will not put me to rest in Egypt;
A kokoke aku la ka la e make ai o Iseraela, hea aku la ia i kana keiki ia Iosepa, i aku la ia ia, Ina i loaa mai ia'u ke alohaia imua o kou maka, e kau mai oe i kou lima malalo o ko'u uha. a e hana mai oe ia'u ma ka lokomaikai a me ka oiaio; ea, mai kanu oe ia'u ma Aigupita nei.
30 But when I go to my fathers, you are to take me out of Egypt and put me to rest in their last resting-place. And he said, I will do so.
E moe au me o'u mau makua. E lawe oe ia'u mai Aigupita aku, a e kanu ia'u ma ko lakou ilina. I mai la kela, E hana no wau e like mo kau olelo.
31 And he said, Take an oath to me; and he took an oath to him: and Israel gave worship on the bed's head.
I aku la keia, E hoohiki mai oe ia'u, a hoohiki iho la kela, a kulou hoomana iho la o Iseraela ma ke poo o kona wahi moe.
