Genesis 50
1 And Joseph fell upon his father's face, and wept on him, and kissed him.
Awo Yusufu n’agwa mu maaso ga kitaawe n’akaaba, n’amunywegera.
2 And Joseph commanded his servants the embalmers to embalm his father; and the embalmers embalmed Israel.
Yusufu n’alagira abaweereza be abasawo, okukalirira omulambo gwa kitaawe. Bwe batyo abasawo ne bakalirira omulambo gwa Isirayiri;
3 And they fulfilled forty days for him, for so are the days of embalming numbered; and Egypt mourned for him seventy days.
baali beetaaga ennaku amakumi ana okukoleramu ekyo. Ezo ze nnaku ezakaliririrwangamu emirambo. Abamisiri ne bakungubagira Yakobo okumala ennaku nsanvu.
4 And when the days of mourning were past, Joseph spoke to the princes of Pharao, saying, If I have found favour in your sight, speak concerning me in the ears of Pharao, saying,
Awo ennaku ez’okukungubagiramu Yakobo bwe zaggwaako, Yusufu n’ayogera n’ennyumba ya Falaawo, n’agamba nti, “Obanga ndabye ekisa mu maaso gammwe munjogerereyo ewa Falaawo. Mumugambe nti,
5 My father adjured me, saying, In the sepulchre which I dug for myself in the land of Chanaan, there you shall bury me; now then I will go up and bury my father, and return again.
‘Kitange yandayiza ng’agamba nti, “Nnaatera okufa; mu ntaana yange gye nesimira mu nsi ya Kanani, omwo mw’onziikanga.” Kale kaakano mbasaba mundeke ŋŋende nziike kitange; oluvannyuma nkomewo.’”
6 And Pharao said to Joseph, Go up, bury your father, as he constrained you to swear.
Falaawo n’addamu nti, “Genda oziike kitaawo nga bwe yakulayiza.”
7 So Joseph went up to bury his father; and all the servants of Pharao went up with him, and the elders of his house, and all the elders of the land of Egypt.
Awo Yusufu n’ayambuka wamu n’abaweereza ba Falaawo bonna, n’abakulu b’ennyumba ye, n’abakulu ba Misiri bonna,
8 And all the household of Joseph, and his brethren, and all the house of his father, and his kindred; and they left behind the sheep and the oxen in the land of Gesem.
n’ab’ennyumba ya Yusufu, ne baganda be, n’ab’ennyumba ya kitaawe. Abaana bokka be baasigala mu Goseni n’ebisibo byabwe n’amagana gaabwe.
9 And there went up with him also chariots and horsemen; and there was a very great company.
N’agenda n’amagaali n’abeebagala embalaasi era ekibiina kyali kinene nnyo.
10 And they came to the threshing floor of Atad, which is beyond Jordan; and they bewailed him with a great and very sore lamentation; and he made a mourning for his father seven days.
Bwe baatuuka ku gguuliro lya Atadi ng’osomose Yoludaani, ne bakungubaga okukungubaga okutagambika okujjudde ennaku; Yusufu n’akungubagira kitaawe okumala ennaku musanvu.
11 And the inhabitants of the land of Chanaan saw the mourning at the floor of Atad, and said, This is a great mourning to the Egyptians; therefore he called its name, The mourning of Egypt, which is beyond Jordan.
Abantu ab’omu nsi, Abakanani, bwe baalaba okukungubaga mu gguuliro lya Atadi ne bagamba nti, “Okukungubaga kuno kwa ntiisa eri Abamisiri.” Ekifo ekyo kyekyava kiyitibwa Aberumizirayimu, ekiri emitala wa Yoludaani.
12 And thus his sons did to him.
Bwe batyo batabani ba Yakobo ne bakola nga bwe yabalagira.
13 So his sons carried him up into the land of Chanaan, and buried him in the double cave, which cave Abraam bought for possession of a burying place, of Ephrom the Chettite, before Mambre.
Baamwetikka ne bamutuusa mu Kanani, ne bamuziika mu mpuku eyali mu nnimiro ya Makupeera, okumpi ne Mamule, Ibulayimu gye yagula okuva ku Efulooni Omukiiti, aziikengamu abantu be.
14 And Joseph returned to Egypt, he and his brethren, and those that had gone up with him to bury his father.
Yusufu bwe yamala okuziika kitaawe n’addayo e Misiri wamu ne baganda be ne bonna abaayambuka naye okuziika kitaawe.
15 And when the brethren of Joseph saw that their father was dead, they said, [Let us take heed], lest at any time Joseph remember evil against us, and recompense to us all the evils which we have done against him.
Baganda ba Yusufu bwe baalaba nga kitaabwe afudde, ne bagamba nti, “Osanga Yusufu ajja kutukyawa yeesasuze olw’ebibi byonna bye twamukola.”
16 And they came to Joseph, and said, Your father adjured [us] before his death, saying,
Kyebaava bamutumira nga bagamba nti, “Kitaawo bwe yali tannafa yatulagira nti
17 Thus say you to Joseph, Forgive them their injustice and their sin, forasmuch as they have done you evil; and now pardon the injustice of the servants of the God of your father. And Joseph wept while they spoke to him.
tugambanga Yusufu nti, ‘Nkusaba osonyiwe baganda bo bye bakusobya n’ekibi kyabwe, kubanga baasobya nnyo gy’oli.’ Kale nno kaakano tukusaba osonyiwe okusobya kw’abaweereza ba Katonda wa kitaawo.” Yusufu bwe baakimugamba n’akaaba.
18 And they came to him and said, We, these [persons], are your servants.
Baganda be ne bagenda gy’ali ne beeyala mu maaso ge ne bagamba nti, “Laba, tuli baddu bo.”
19 And Joseph said to them, Fear not, for I am God's.
Naye Yusufu n’abagamba nti, “Temutya, nze ndi mu kifo kya Katonda?
20 You took counsel against me for evil, but God took counsel for me for good, that [the matter] might be as [it is] today, and much people might be fed.
Mwagenderera okunnumya, naye Katonda n’akifuula ekirungi, n’akikozesa abantu baleme okufa.
21 And he said to them, Fear not, I will maintain you, and your families: and he comforted them, and spoke kindly to them.
Noolwekyo temutya, nzija kubaliisa mmwe n’abaana bammwe.” Bw’atyo n’abagumya n’abazaamu amaanyi.
22 And Joseph lived in Egypt, he and his brethren, and all the family of his father; and Joseph lived a hundred and ten years.
Awo Yusufu n’abeera mu Misiri, ye n’ennyumba ya kitaawe. N’awangaala emyaka kikumi mu kkumi.
23 And Joseph saw the children of Ephraim to the third generation; and the sons of Machir the son of Manasse were borne on the sides of Joseph.
N’alaba abaana ba Efulayimu, abazzukulu ab’omugigi ogwokusatu. Era n’alaba n’aba Makiri mutabani wa Manase abaazaalirwa ku maviivi ga Yusufu.
24 And Joseph spoke to his brethren, saying, I die, and God will surely visit you, and will bring you out of this land to the land concerning which God sware to our fathers, Abraam, Isaac, and Jacob.
Yusufu n’agamba baganda be nti, “Nnaatera okufa, naye Katonda alibakyalira n’abalinnyisa okubaggya mu nsi eno; n’abatwala mu nsi gye yalayirira Ibulayimu, ne Isaaka ne Yakobo.”
25 And Joseph adjured the sons of Israel, saying, At the visitation with which God shall visit you, then you shall carry up my bones hence with you.
Awo Yusufu n’alayiza abaana ba Isirayiri ng’agamba nti, “Katonda alibakyalira, nammwe mulinyisanga amagumba gange okugaggya wano.”
26 And Joseph died, aged an hundred and ten years; and they prepared his corpse, and put him in a coffin in Egypt.
Bw’atyo Yusufu n’afa, ng’alina emyaka kikumi mu kkumi; ne bakalirira omulambo gwe n’ateekebwa mu ssanduuko mu Misiri.
