Genesis 50
1 And Joseph put his head down on his father's face, weeping and kissing him.
| فَوَقَعَ يُوسُفُ عَلَى وَجْهِ أَبِيهِ وَبَكَى عَلَيْهِ وَقَبَّلَهُ. | ١ |
2 And Joseph gave orders to his servants who had the necessary knowledge, to make his father's body ready, folding it in linen with spices, and they did so.
| وَأَمَرَ يُوسُفُ عَبِيدَهُ ٱلْأَطِبَّاءَ أَنْ يُحَنِّطُوا أَبَاهُ. فَحَنَّطَ ٱلْأَطِبَّاءُ إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ٢ |
3 And the forty days needed for making the body ready went by: and there was weeping for him among the Egyptians for seventy days.
| وَكَمُلَ لَهُ أَرْبَعُونَ يَوْمًا، لِأَنَّهُ هَكَذَا تَكْمُلُ أَيَّامُ ٱلْمُحَنَّطِينَ. وَبَكَى عَلَيْهِ ٱلْمِصْرِيُّونَ سَبْعِينَ يَوْمًا. | ٣ |
4 And when the days of weeping for him were past, Joseph said to the servants of Pharaoh, If now you have love for me, say these words to Pharaoh:
| وَبَعْدَ مَا مَضَتْ أَيَّامُ بُكَائِهِ كَلَّمَ يُوسُفُ بَيْتَ فِرْعَوْنَ قَائِلًا: «إِنْ كُنْتُ قَدْ وَجَدْتُ نِعْمَةً فِي عُيُونِكُمْ، فَتَكَلَّمُوا فِي مَسَامِعِ فِرْعَوْنَ قَائِلِينَ: | ٤ |
5 My father made me take an oath, saying, When I am dead, put me to rest in the place I have made ready for myself in the land of Canaan. So now let me go and put my father in his last resting-place, and I will come back again.
| أَبِي ٱسْتَحْلَفَنِي قَائِلًا: هَا أَنَا أَمُوتُ. فِي قَبْرِيَ ٱلَّذِي حَفَرْتُ لِنَفْسِي فِي أَرْضِ كَنْعَانَ هُنَاكَ تَدْفِنُنِي، فَٱلْآنَ أَصْعَدُ لِأَدْفِنَ أَبِي وَأَرْجِعُ». | ٥ |
6 And Pharaoh said, Go up and put your father to rest, as you gave your oath to him.
| فَقَالَ فِرْعَوْنُ: «ٱصْعَدْ وَٱدْفِنْ أَبَاكَ كَمَا ٱسْتَحْلَفَكَ». | ٦ |
7 So Joseph went up to put his father in his last resting-place; and with him went all the servants of Pharaoh, and the chief men of his house and all the chiefs of the land of Egypt,
| فَصَعِدَ يُوسُفُ لِيَدْفِنَ أَبَاهُ، وَصَعِدَ مَعَهُ جَمِيعُ عَبِيدِ فِرْعَوْنَ، شُيُوخُ بَيْتِهِ وَجَمِيعُ شُيُوخِ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ، | ٧ |
8 And all the family of Joseph, and his brothers and his father's people: only their little ones and their flocks and herds they did not take with them from the land of Goshen.
| وَكُلُّ بَيْتِ يُوسُفَ وَإِخْوَتُهُ وَبَيْتُ أَبِيهِ، غَيْرَ أَنَّهُمْ تَرَكُوا أَوْلَادَهُمْ وَغَنَمَهُمْ وَبَقَرَهُمْ فِي أَرْضِ جَاسَانَ. | ٨ |
9 And carriages went up with him and horsemen, a great army.
| وَصَعِدَ مَعَهُ مَرْكَبَاتٌ وَفُرْسَانٌ، فَكَانَ ٱلْجَيْشُ كَثِيرًا جِدًّا. | ٩ |
10 And they came to the grain-floor of Atad on the other side of Jordan, and there they gave the last honours to Jacob, with great and bitter sorrow, weeping for their father for seven days.
| فَأَتَوْا إِلَى بَيْدَرِ أَطَادَ ٱلَّذِي فِي عَبْرِ ٱلْأُرْدُنِّ وَنَاحُوا هُنَاكَ نَوْحًا عَظِيمًا وَشَدِيدًا جِدًّا، وَصَنَعَ لِأَبِيهِ مَنَاحَةً سَبْعَةَ أَيَّامٍ. | ١٠ |
11 And when the people of the land, the people of Canaan, at the grain-floor of Atad, saw their grief, they said, Great is the grief of the Egyptians: so the place was named Abel-mizraim, on the other side of Jordan.
| فَلَمَّا رَأَى أَهْلُ ٱلْبِلَادِ ٱلْكَنْعَانِيُّونَ ٱلْمَنَاحَةَ فِي بَيْدَرِ أَطَادَ قَالُوا: «هَذِهِ مَنَاحَةٌ ثَقِيلَةٌ لِلْمِصْرِيِّينَ». لِذَلِكَ دُعِيَ ٱسْمُهُ «آبَلَ مِصْرَايِمَ». ٱلَّذِي فِي عَبْرِ ٱلْأُرْدُنِّ. | ١١ |
12 So his sons did as he had given them orders to do:
| وَفَعَلَ لَهُ بَنُوهُ هَكَذَا كَمَا أَوْصَاهُمْ: | ١٢ |
13 For they took him into the land of Canaan and put him to rest in the hollow rock in the field of Machpelah, which Abraham got with the field, for a resting-place, from Ephron the Hittite at Mamre.
| حَمَلَهُ بَنُوهُ إِلَى أَرْضِ كَنْعَانَ وَدَفَنُوهُ فِي مَغَارَةِ حَقْلِ ٱلْمَكْفِيلَةِ، ٱلَّتِي ٱشْتَرَاهَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ مَعَ ٱلْحَقْلِ مُلْكَ قَبْرٍ مِنْ عِفْرُونَ ٱلْحِثِّيِ أَمَامَ مَمْرَا. | ١٣ |
14 And when his father had been put to rest, Joseph and his brothers and all who had gone with him, went back to Egypt.
| ثُمَّ رَجَعَ يُوسُفُ إِلَى مِصْرَ هُوَ وَإِخْوَتُهُ وَجَمِيعُ ٱلَّذِينَ صَعِدُوا مَعَهُ لِدَفْنِ أَبِيهِ بَعْدَ مَا دَفَنَ أَبَاهُ. | ١٤ |
15 Now after the death of their father, Joseph's brothers said to themselves, It may be that Joseph's heart will be turned against us, and he will give us punishment for all the evil which we did to him.
| وَلَمَّا رَأَى إِخْوَةُ يُوسُفَ أَنَّ أَبَاهُمْ قَدْ مَاتَ، قَالُوا: «لَعَلَّ يُوسُفَ يَضْطَهِدُنَا وَيَرُدُّ عَلَيْنَا جَمِيعَ ٱلشَّرِّ ٱلَّذِي صَنَعْنَا بِهِ». | ١٥ |
16 So they sent word to Joseph, saying, Your father, before his death, gave us orders, saying,
| فَأَوَصَوْا إِلَى يُوسُفَ قَائِلِينَ: «أَبُوكَ أَوْصَى قَبْلَ مَوْتِهِ قَائِلًا: | ١٦ |
17 You are to say to Joseph, Let the wrongdoing of your brothers be overlooked, and the evil they did to you: now, if it is your pleasure, let the sin of the servants of your father's God have forgiveness. And at these words, Joseph was overcome with weeping.
| هَكَذَا تَقُولُونَ لِيُوسُفَ: آهِ! ٱصْفَحْ عَنْ ذَنْبِ إِخْوَتِكَ وَخَطِيَّتِهِمْ، فَإِنَّهُمْ صَنَعُوا بِكَ شَرًّا. فَٱلْآنَ ٱصْفَحْ عَنْ ذَنْبِ عَبِيدِ إِلَهِ أَبِيكَ». فَبَكَى يُوسُفُ حِينَ كَلَّمُوهُ. | ١٧ |
18 Then his brothers went, and falling at his feet, said, Truly, we are your servants.
| وَأَتَى إِخْوَتُهُ أَيْضًا وَوَقَعُوا أَمَامَهُ وَقَالُوا: «هَا نَحْنُ عَبِيدُكَ». | ١٨ |
19 And Joseph said, Have no fear: am I in the place of God?
| فَقَالَ لَهُمْ يُوسُفُ: «لَا تَخَافُوا. لِأَنَّهُ هَلْ أَنَا مَكَانَ ٱللهِ؟ | ١٩ |
20 As for you, it was in your mind to do me evil, but God has given a happy outcome, the salvation of numbers of people, as you see today.
| أَنْتُمْ قَصَدْتُمْ لِي شَرًّا، أَمَّا ٱللهُ فَقَصَدَ بِهِ خَيْرًا، لِكَيْ يَفْعَلَ كَمَا ٱلْيَوْمَ، لِيُحْيِيَ شَعْبًا كَثِيرًا. | ٢٠ |
21 So now, have no fear: for I will take care of you and your little ones. So he gave them comfort with kind words.
| فَٱلْآنَ لَا تَخَافُوا. أَنَا أَعُولُكُمْ وَأَوْلَادَكُمْ». فَعَزَّاهُمْ وَطَيَّبَ قُلُوبَهُمْ. | ٢١ |
22 Now Joseph and all his father's family went on living in Egypt: and the years of Joseph's life were a hundred and ten.
| وَسَكَنَ يُوسُفُ فِي مِصْرَ هُوَ وَبَيْتُ أَبِيهِ، وَعَاشَ يُوسُفُ مِئَةً وَعَشَرَ سِنِينَ. | ٢٢ |
23 And Joseph saw Ephraim's children of the third generation: and the children of Machir, the son of Manasseh, came to birth on Joseph's knees.
| وَرَأَى يُوسُفُ لِأَفْرَايِمَ أَوْلَادَ ٱلْجِيلِ ٱلثَّالِثِ. وَأَوْلَادُ مَاكِيرَ بْنِ مَنَسَّى أَيْضًا وُلِدُوا عَلَى رُكْبَتَيْ يُوسُفَ. | ٢٣ |
24 Then Joseph said to his brothers, The time of my death has come; but God will keep you in mind and take you out of this land into the land which he gave by his oath to Abraham and Isaac and Jacob.
| وَقَالَ يُوسُفُ لِإِخْوَتِهِ: «أَنَا أَمُوتُ، وَلَكِنَّ ٱللهَ سَيَفْتَقِدُكُمْ وَيُصْعِدُكُمْ مِنْ هَذِهِ ٱلْأَرْضِ إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّتِي حَلَفَ لِإِبْرَاهِيمَ وَإِسْحَاقَ وَيَعْقُوبَ». | ٢٤ |
25 Then Joseph made the children of Israel take an oath, saying, God will certainly give effect to his word, and you are to take my bones away from here.
| وَٱسْتَحْلَفَ يُوسُفُ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ قَائِلًا: «ٱللهُ سَيَفْتَقِدُكُمْ فَتُصْعِدُونَ عِظَامِي مِنْ هُنَا». | ٢٥ |
26 So Joseph came to his death, being a hundred and ten years old: and they made his body ready, and he was put in a chest in Egypt.
| ثُمَّ مَاتَ يُوسُفُ وَهُوَ ٱبْنُ مِئَةٍ وَعَشَرِ سِنِينَ، فَحَنَّطُوهُ وَوُضِعَ فِي تَابُوتٍ فِي مِصْرَ. | ٢٦ |
