Genesis 50
1 Joseph, realizing this, fell upon his father’s face, weeping and kissing him.
Tada Josif pade na lice ocu svojemu, i plaka nad njim cjelujuæi ga.
2 And he instructed his servant physicians to embalm his father with aromatics.
I zapovjedi Josif slugama svojim ljekarima da mirisima pomažu oca njegova; i ljekari pomazaše mirisima Izrailja.
3 And while they were fulfilling his orders, forty days passed. For this was the method of embalming dead bodies. And Egypt wept for him for seventy days.
I navrši mu se èetrdeset dana, jer toliko dana treba onijem koje pomažu mirisima; i plakaše za njim Misirci sedamdeset dana.
4 And when the time for mourning was fulfilled, Joseph spoke to the family of Pharaoh: “If I have found favor in your sight, speak to the ears of Pharaoh.
A kad proðoše žalosni dani, reèe Josif domašnjima Faraonovijem govoreæi: ako sam našao milost pred vama, govorite Faraonu i recite:
5 For my father made me swear, saying: ‘See, I am dying. You shall bury me in my sepulcher which I dug for myself in the land of Canaan.’ Therefore, I shall go up and bury my father, and then return.”
Otac me je moj zakleo govoreæi: evo, ja æu skoro umrijeti; u grobu mojem, koji iskopah u zemlji Hananskoj, ondje me pogrebi. Pa sada da idem da pogrebem oca svojega, a poslije æu opet doæi.
6 And Pharaoh said to him, “Go up and bury your father, just as he made you swear.”
A Faraon mu reèe: idi, pogrebi oca svojega kako te je zakleo.
7 So as he went up, all the elders of the house of Pharaoh went with him, along with every patriarch in the land of Egypt,
I otide Josif da pogrebe oca svojega; i s njim poðoše sve sluge Faraonove, starješine od doma njegova i sve starješine od zemlje Misirske,
8 and the house of Joseph with his brothers, except their little ones and flocks and also the herds, which they left behind in the land of Goshen.
I sav dom Josifov i braæa njegova i dom oca njegova; samo djecu svoju i ovce svoje i goveda svoja ostaviše u zemlji Gesemskoj.
9 Likewise, he had in his company chariots and horsemen. And it became a crowd without restraint.
A poðe s njim i kola i konjika toliko da bješe vojska vrlo velika.
10 And they arrived at the threshing place of Atad, which is situated beyond the Jordan. There they spent seven full days celebrating the funeral rites with a great and vehement lamentation.
A kad doðoše na gumno Atadovo, koje je s onu stranu Jordana, plakaše ondje mnogo i vrlo tužno; i Josif uèini žalost za ocem svojim za sedam dana.
11 And when the inhabitants of the land of Canaan had seen this, they said, “This is a great Lamentation for the Egyptians.” And for this reason, the name of that place was called, “The Lamentation of Egypt.”
A ljudi iz one zemlje, Hananejci, kad vidješe plaè na gumnu Atadovu, rekoše: u velikoj su žalosti Misirci. Zato prozvaše ono mjesto s onu stranu Jordana žalost Misirska.
12 And so, the sons of Jacob did just as he had instructed them.
I uèiniše mu sinovi njegovi kako im bješe zapovjedio.
13 And carrying him into the land of Canaan, they buried him in the double cave, which Abraham had bought along with its field, from Ephron the Hittite, as a possession for burial, opposite Mamre.
Odnesoše ga sinovi njegovi u zemlju Hanansku, i pogreboše ga u peæini na njivi Makpelskoj, koju kupi Avram da ima svoj grob u Efrona Hetejina prema Mamriji.
14 And Joseph returned into Egypt with his brothers and all those of his company, having buried his father.
I pogrebavši oca svojega vrati se Josif u Misir i braæa njegova i svi koji bijahu izašli s njim da pogrebu oca njegova.
15 Now that he was dead, his brothers were afraid, and they said to one another: “Perhaps now he may remember the injury that he suffered and requite us for all the evil that we did to him.”
A braæa Josifova videæi gdje im otac umrije, rekoše: može biti da se Josif srdi na nas, pa æe nam se osvetiti za sve zlo što mu uèinismo.
16 So they sent a message to him, saying: “Your father instructed us before he died,
Zato poruèiše Josifu: otac tvoj zapovjedi na smrti i reèe:
17 that we should say these words to you from him: ‘I beg you to forget the wickedness of your brothers, and the sin and malice that they practiced against you.’ Likewise, we petition you to release the servants of the God of your father from this iniquity.” Hearing this, Joseph wept.
Ovako kažite Josifu: molim te, oprosti braæi svojoj bezakonje i grijeh, što ti pakostiše; sada oprosti bezakonje slugama Boga oca tvojega. A Josif zaplaka se kad mu to rekoše.
18 And his brothers went to him. And reverencing prostrate on the ground, they said, “We are your servants.”
Poslije doðoše i braæa njegova i padoše pred njim i rekoše: evo smo sluge tvoje.
19 And he answered them: “Do not be afraid. Are we able to resist the will of God?
A Josif im reèe: ne bojte se, zar sam ja mjesto Boga?
20 You devised evil against me. But God turned it into good, so that he might exalt me, just as you presently discern, and so that he might bring about the salvation of many peoples.
Vi ste mislili zlo po me, ali je Bog mislio dobro, da uèini što se danas zbiva, da se saèuva u životu mnogi narod.
21 Do not be afraid. I will pasture you and your little ones.” And he consoled them, and he spoke mildly and leniently.
Ne bojte se dakle; ja æu hraniti vas i vašu djecu. Tako ih utješi i oslobodi.
22 And he lived in Egypt with all his father’s house; and he survived for one hundred and ten years.
Tako življaše Josif u Misiru s domom oca svojega, i poživje sto i deset godina.
23 And he saw the sons of Ephraim to the third generation. Likewise, the sons of Machir, the son of Manasseh, were born onto Joseph’s knees.
I vidje Josif sinove Jefremove do treæega koljena; i sinovi Mahira sina Manasijina rodiše se i odrastoše na koljenima Josifovijem.
24 After these things happened, he said to his brothers: “God will visit you after my death, and he will make you ascend from this land into the land which he swore to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.”
I reèe Josif braæi svojoj: ja æu skoro umrijeti; ali æe vas zacijelo Bog pohoditi, i izvešæe vas iz ove zemlje u zemlju za koju se zakleo Avramu, Isaku i Jakovu.
25 And when he had made them swear and had said, “God will visit you; carry my bones with you from this place,”
I zakle Josif sinove Izrailjeve i reèe: zaista æe vas pohoditi Bog; a vi onda odnesite kosti moje odavde.
26 he died, having completed one hundred and ten years of his life. And having been embalmed with aromatics, he was laid to rest in a coffin in Egypt.
Potom umrije Josif, a bješe mu sto i deset godina; i pomazavši ga mirisima metnuše ga u kovèeg u Misiru.
