Genesis 47

1 And Joseph came and told Pharaoh and said, My father and my brethren, and their sheep and their cattle, and all that they have, are come out of the land of Canaan; and behold, they are in the land of Goshen.

Na ka haere a Hohepa, ka korero ki a Parao, ka mea, Kua tae mai toku papa me oku tuakana, me a ratou kahui, a ratou kau, a ratou mea katoa, i te whenua o Kanaana; na, kei te whenua ratou o Kohena.

2 And he took from the whole number of his brethren, five men, and set them before Pharaoh.

Na ka tango ia i etahi o ona tuakana, tokorima, a whakaturia ana ratou e ia ki te aroaro o Parao.

3 And Pharaoh said to his brethren, What is your occupation? And they said to Pharaoh, Thy servants are shepherds, both we and our fathers.

A ka mea a Parao ki ona tuakana, He aha ta koutou na mahi? A ka mea ratou ki a Parao, He hepara au pononga, matou me o matou matua.

4 And they said to Pharaoh, To sojourn in the land are we come; for there is no pasture for the sheep that thy servants have, for the famine is grievous in the land of Canaan; and now, we pray thee, let thy servants dwell in the land of Goshen.

I mea ano ratou ki a Parao, He noho ki tenei whenua i haere mai ai matou; no te mea kahore he kai ma nga hipi a au pononga; he nui hoki te matekai o te whenua o Kanaana: koia ra kia noho au pononga ki te whenua o Kohena.

5 And Pharaoh spoke to Joseph, saying, Thy father and thy brethren are come to thee.

Na ka korero a Parao ki a Hohepa, ka mea, Kua tae mai nei tou papa me ou tuakana ki a koe:

6 The land of Egypt is before thee; in the best of the land settle thy father and thy brethren: let them dwell in the land of Goshen. And if thou knowest men of activity among them, then set them as overseers of cattle over what I have.

Kei tou aroaro te whenua o Ihipa; whakanohoia e koe tou papa me ou tuakana ki te wahi pai o te whenua; kia noho ratou ki te whenua o Kohena: ki te mea hoki e mohiotia ana e koe etahi tangata pakari i roto i a ratou, meinga ratou hei rangatira mo aku kararehe.

7 And Joseph brought Jacob his father, and set him before Pharaoh. And Jacob blessed Pharaoh.

Na ka kawea mai a Hakopa, tona papa, e Hohepa, ka whakaturia ki te aroaro o Parao; a ka manaaki a Hakopa i a Parao.

8 And Pharaoh said to Jacob, How many are the days of the years of thy life?

A ka mea a Parao ki a Hakopa, Ka hia ou tau?

9 And Jacob said to Pharaoh, The days of the years of my sojourning are a hundred and thirty years. Few and evil have been the days of the years of my life, and they do not attain to the days of the years of the life of my fathers, in the days of their sojourning.

Ka mea a Hakopa ki a Parao, Ka kotahi rau e toru tekau tau nga ra o nga tau o toku noho manene: he torutoru, a he kino nga ra o nga tau o toku ora, kihai ano hoki i rite ki nga ra o nga tau o te ora o oku matua, i nga ra i noho manene ai ratou.

10 And Jacob blessed Pharaoh, and went out from Pharaoh.

Na ka manaaki a Hakopa i a Parao, a puta atu ana i te aroaro o Parao.

11 And Joseph settled his father and his brethren, and gave them a possession in the land of Egypt, in the best of the land, in the land of Rameses, as Pharaoh had commanded.

Na ka whakanohoia e Hohepa tona papa me ona tuakana, a hoatu ana e ia ki a ratou he kainga i te whenua o Ihipa, i te wahi pai rawa o te whenua, i te whenua o Ramehehe, pera me ta Parao i whakahau ai.

12 And Joseph maintained his father, and his brethren, and all his father's household, with bread, according to the number of the little ones.

Na ka atawhai a Hohepa i tona papa, ratou ko ona tuakana, ko te whare katoa ano hoki o tona papa ki te taro, he mea whakarite tonu ki o ratou hapu.

13 And there was no bread in all the land; for the famine was very grievous; and the land of Egypt and the land of Canaan were exhausted through the famine.

A kahore he taro o te whenua katoa; he nui rawa hoki te matekai; a hemo noa iho te whenua o Ihipa i te matekai, me te whenua hoki o Kanaana.

14 And Joseph gathered up all the money that was found in the land of Egypt, and in the land of Canaan, for the grain which they bought; and Joseph brought the money into Pharaoh's house.

A kohia ana e Hohepa te moni katoa i kitea ki te whenua o Ihipa, ki te whenua hoki o Kanaana, mo te witi i hokona e ratou: a kawea ana e Hohepa te moni ki te whare o Parao.

15 And when money came to an end in the land of Egypt and in the land of Canaan, all the Egyptians came to Joseph, saying, Give us bread! for why should we die before thee? for [our] money is all gone.

A, no te potonga o te moni o te whenua o Ihipa, o te whenua hoki o Kanaana, na ka haere nga Ihipiana katoa ki a Hohepa, ka mea, Homai he taro ki a matou: kia mate hoki matou ki tou aroaro hei aha? kua poto nei hoki te moni.

16 And Joseph said, Give your cattle, and I will give you for your cattle, if [your] money be all gone.

Na ka mea a Hohepa, Homai a koutou kararehe; a ka hoatu e ahau hei utu mo a koutou kararehe, i te mea kua poto te moni.

17 And they brought their cattle to Joseph; and Joseph gave them bread for horses, and for flocks of sheep, and for herds of cattle, and for asses; and he fed them with bread for all their cattle that year.

Na ka kawea mai e ratou a ratou kararehe ki a Hohepa: a hoatu ana e Hohepa he taro ki a ratou hei utu mo nga hoiho, mo nga kahui hipi, mo nga kahui kau, mo nga kaihe: a whangaia ana ratou e ia ki te taro i taua tau, hei utu mo a ratou kararehe k atoa.

18 And that year ended; and they came to him the second year, and said to him, We will not hide [it] from my lord that since [our] money is come to an end, and the herds of cattle are in the possession of my lord, nothing is left before my lord but our bodies and our land.

A, no te takanga o taua tau, ka haere mai ratou ki a ia i te rua o nga tau, ka mea ki a ia, E kore e huna e matou i toku ariki, kua poto te moni; kei toku ariki hoki a matou kahui kararehe; kahore he mea e toe ana hei tirohanga ma toku ariki, ko o matou tinana anake, me o matou oneone:

19 Why should we die before thine eyes, both we and our land? Buy us and our land for bread, and we and our land will be bondmen to Pharaoh; and give seed, that we may live, and not die, and that the land be not desolate.

Kia mate matou ki tou aroaro hei aha? matou tahi hoki me to matou oneone? hokona matou me to matou oneone ki te taro, a ka riro matou me to matou oneone hei pononga ma Parao: homai ano hoki he purapura, a ka ora matou, a e kore e mate, e kore an o hoki e ururuatia te whenua.

20 And Joseph bought all the soil of Egypt for Pharaoh; for the Egyptians sold every man his field, because the famine prevailed over them; and the land became Pharaoh's.

Na ka hokona e Hohepa te oneone katoa o Ihipa mo Parao: i hokona hoki e nga Ihipiana tana mara, tana mara; he pehi rawa hoki na te matekai i a ratou: a riro ana te whenua i a Parao.

21 And as for the people, he removed them into the cities, from [one] end of the borders of Egypt even to the [other] end of it.

Tena ko nga tangata, i whakawhitiwhitia e ia ki nga pa, i tetahi pito o nga rohe o Ihipa a puta noa ki tetahi pito o reira.

22 Only the land of the priests he did not buy; for the priests had an assigned portion from Pharaoh, and ate their assigned portion which Pharaoh had given them; so they did not sell their land.

Ko te oneone anake ia o nga tohunga kihai i hokona e ia; i whakaritea hoki tetahi wahi e Parao ma nga tohunga, a i kai ratou i ta ratou wahi i homai e Parao ma ratou: koia te hokona ai e ratou o ratou oneone.

23 And Joseph said to the people, Behold, I have bought you this day and your land for Pharaoh: lo, here is seed for you, and sow the land.

A ka mea a Hohepa ki te iwi, Nana, kua hokona nei koutou e ahau inaianei, me to koutou oneone, ma Parao: na, he purapura ma koutou, ruia te whenua.

24 And it shall come to pass in the increase that ye shall give the fifth to Pharaoh, and the four parts shall be your own, for seed of the field, and for your food, and for them of your households, and for food for your little ones.

A, ka whai hua a mua, me homai e koutou te rima o nga wahi ki a Parao, a ma koutou nga wahi e wha, hei purapura mo te mara, hei kai hoki ma koutou, ma te hunga hoki i roto i o koutou whare, hei kai ano hoki ma a koutou tamariki.

25 And they said, Thou hast saved us alive. Let us find favour in the eyes of my lord, and we will be Pharaoh's bondmen.

A ka mea ratou, Ka ora matou i a koe: kia manakohia matou e toku ariki, hei pononga matou ma Parao.

26 And Joseph made it a law over the land of Egypt to this day, [that] the fifth should be for Pharaoh, except the land of the priests: theirs alone did not become Pharaoh's.

Na ka whakatakotoria te tikanga e Hohepa mo te oneone o Ihipa a tae noa mai ki tenei ra, ma Parao te rima o nga wahi; haunga ia te oneone o nga tohunga, kihai hoki tena i riro i a Parao.

27 And Israel dwelt in the land of Egypt, in the land of Goshen; and they had possessions in it, and were fruitful and multiplied exceedingly.

Na ka noho a Iharaira ki te whenua o Ihipa, ki te whenua o Kohena; ka whai kainga ratou ki reira, ka hua, ka nui whakaharahara.

28 And Jacob lived in the land of Egypt seventeen years; and the days of Jacob, the years of his life, were a hundred and forty-seven years.

A kotahi tekau ma whitu nga tau i ora ai a Hakopa ki te whenua o Ihipa: a kotahi rau e wha tekau ma whitu nga tau o te oranga o Hakopa.

29 And the days of Israel approached that he should die. And he called his son Joseph, and said to him, If now I have found favour in thine eyes, put, I pray thee, thy hand under my thigh, and deal kindly and truly with me: bury me not, I pray thee, in Egypt;

Na ka whakatata nga ra o Iharaira e mate ai ia: a ka karanga i tana tama, i a Hohepa, ka mea ki a ia, Na, ki te mea ka manakohia ahau e koe, tena, whakapakia mai tou ringa ki raro i toku huha, a whakaputaina mai he aroha, he pono ki ahau; kaua r a ahau e tanumia ki Ihipa:

30 but when I shall lie with my fathers, thou shalt carry me out of Egypt, and bury me in their sepulchre. And he said, I will do according to thy word.

Engari kia takoto ahau ki oku matua, me kawe atu ahau e koe i Ihipa, me tanu hoki ki to ratou urupa. A ka mea ia, Ka rite i ahau tau kupu.

31 And he said, Swear to me; and he swore to him. And Israel worshipped on the bed's head.

A ka mea ia ki a ia, Oati mai ki ahau. A oati ana ia ki a ia. A ka pike a Iharaira ki runga ki te urunga o te moenga.
