< Genesis 50 >

1 And Joseph put his head down on his father's face, weeping and kissing him.
Ama na mate ma, Yusuf holu nala e, de nggae ei-ei. Ana idꞌu ama na nasafafali.
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.
Basa naa ma, Yusuf parenda mana tao mataꞌ mamates ra tao modꞌo neu e, fo ao sisi na afiꞌ maꞌafoo.
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.
Basa boe ma, ara linuafi mamates a losa fai haa nulu, tungga sira hadat na. Basa atahori Masir ra o nggae Yakob mamate na losa fai hitu nulu. Onaꞌ sira atahori monaen na mate.
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:
Basa fai kahitu nulu na boe, Yusuf nafadꞌe pagau nara nae, “Rena! Mendi haraꞌ ia, mi mifadꞌe maneꞌ a maꞌo ia:
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.
‘Ama ngga nae mate ma, ana noꞌe au uꞌoi e sia rae Kanaꞌan. Dadꞌi au oꞌe maneꞌ fee au uu uꞌoi ama ngga dei. Basaꞌ fo au baliꞌ ia uma.’”
6 And Pharaoh said, Go up and put your father to rest, as you gave your oath to him.
Maneꞌ a nataa nae, “Mete ma ho helu ama ma taꞌo naa ena, muu muꞌoi e sia naa leo.”
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,
Boe ma Yusuf neu naꞌoi ama na. Atahori naeꞌ o tungga e boe. Maneꞌ a pagau nara, ma basa atahori monaeꞌ Masir ra.
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.
Yusuf odꞌi-aꞌa nara, ro basa atahori mana tao ues nara o reu raꞌoi Yakob boe. Mana mahani sia Gosen, akaꞌ a sao nara ro anadikiꞌ ra ma banda nara.
9 And carriages went up with him and horsemen, a great army.
Soldꞌadꞌu naeꞌ o tungga boe. Ruma ro kareta, ma ruma sae ndara. Huu mana tungga ra, nae na seli, naa de nononggo mana tunggaꞌ laoꞌ ro mamates a narun seli.
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.
Basa se lao losa loe Yordan seriꞌ sia mamanaꞌ esa naran Atad. Atahori biasa poko are sia naa. Yusuf se nggae ei-ei ama na mamate na ma bebeꞌek tetembaꞌ hitu fai sia naa.
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.
Atahori Kanaꞌan sia naa rita se susa onaꞌ naa ma, ara olaꞌ rae, “Wei! Mita dei. Atahori Masir ra beꞌe mamates nara no sususaꞌ seli o. Ara nggae mataꞌ naa.” Naa de ara babꞌae mamanaꞌ naa, Abel-Misraim. Sosoa na ‘atahori Masir sususa na’.
12 So his sons did as he had given them orders to do:
Basa ma, Yakob ana nara tao tungga sira helu-fuli na.
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.
Ara rendi Yakob ao sisi na, de raꞌoi sia luat deka kambo Makpela no Mamre. Maꞌahulu na, Abraham hasa mamanaꞌ naa mia atahori Het, naran Efron, de tao dadꞌi mamana rates.
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.
Yusuf naꞌoi basa ama na ma, no odꞌi-aꞌa nara baliꞌ Masir reu. Basa atahori mana tungga reu raꞌoiꞌ ra o baliꞌ boe.
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.
Ara losa Masir boe ma, Yusuf aꞌa nara ramatau. Huu ama na nese ena, de ara ola-olaꞌ rae, “Wei! Hei duꞌa dei! Mete ma Yusuf feꞌe mbedꞌaꞌ nasat no nggita, fo nae balas hita deꞌulakaꞌ na neu e, naa taꞌo bee?
16 So they sent word to Joseph, saying, Your father, before his death, gave us orders, saying,
Ara rala haraꞌ sa fo fee haraꞌ neu Yusuf rae: “Ama fetor. Hai feꞌe misinedꞌa leleꞌ hita ama na feꞌe masodꞌa na, ana denu hai
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.
mifadꞌe amaꞌ mae, ‘Usu musi fee ambon neu aꞌa nara salan. Huu maꞌahulu na ara tao deꞌulakaꞌ neu e.’ Hai o misinedꞌa hita ama na namahere neu Lamatualain mia maꞌahulu na. Naa de, hai, fo Lamatualain ate nara, ima moꞌe ambon, huu basa hai tao salaꞌ neu amaꞌ ena.” Yusuf rena taꞌo naa ma, ana nggae.
18 Then his brothers went, and falling at his feet, said, Truly, we are your servants.
Boe ma aꞌa nara rema mata nara ma sendeꞌ lululangga nara, de olaꞌ rae, “Amaꞌ, tao hai dadꞌi ate ma.”
19 And Joseph said, Have no fear: am I in the place of God?
Yusuf nafadꞌe se nae, “Aꞌa nggare! Sudꞌi mimitau fai! Akaꞌ a Lamatualain ma hak fo huku-doki atahori. Te au ia, hokoꞌ.
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.
Maꞌahulu na, memaꞌ hei mala haraꞌ fo tao deꞌulakaꞌ neu au. Te Lamatualain nggati hei dudꞌuꞌa deꞌulaka ma, dadꞌi maloleꞌ. Naa de, Ana soꞌu au dadꞌi atahori monaeꞌ, fo atahori naeꞌ hambu masodꞌaꞌ.
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.
Dadꞌi ia naa, au ufadꞌe nggi fo sudꞌi mimitau fai. Au helu dei fo au mete-seꞌu nggi, mo basa ana mara.” Yusuf oꞌola na naa, tao mangatetee aꞌa nara ralan.
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.
Basa naa ma, Yusuf leo nakandoo sia Masir no odꞌi-aꞌa nara. Ana nasodꞌa losa too natun esa sanahulu.
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.
Ana feꞌe nita Efraim sufe nara. Ma ana o naꞌaboi Manase umbu nara, naeni Makir ana nara.
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.
Yusuf nafadꞌe aꞌa nara nae, “Aꞌa nggare! Au duꞌa-duꞌa na, fai mamate ngga deka ena. Te au umuhere, Lamatualain naꞌaboi hei. Dei fo, Ana no nggi lao hela nusaꞌ ia, ma nalalao nggi baliꞌ misiꞌ nusaꞌ fo Ana helu-fuli fee baꞌi Abraham, baꞌi Isak no ama Yakob.”
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.
Boe ma Yusuf noꞌe odꞌi-aꞌa nara teꞌa nae, “Hei musi teꞌa neu au. Mete ma losa fai na Lamatualain no baliꞌ nggi misiꞌ nusaꞌ naa, naa hei o mo baliꞌ ao sisi ngga.”
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.
Yusuf too natun esa sanahulu ma, ana mate sia Masir. Boe ma ara tao modꞌo neu ao sisi na, de tao e kopa na rala neu.
