Genesis 50
1 And Joseph fell upon his father's face, and wept upon him, and kissed him.
Pea tōmapeʻe ʻa Siosefa ki he mata ʻo ʻene tamai, ʻo tangi kiate ia, mo uma kiate ia.
2 And Joseph commanded his servants the physicians to embalm his father. And the physicians embalmed Israel.
Pea fekau ʻe Siosefa ki heʻene kau tangata faitoʻo, ke nau fakatolongaʻi ʻene tamai; pea naʻe fakatolonga ʻa ʻIsileli ʻe he kau faitoʻo.
3 And forty days were fulfilled for him; for so are fulfilled the days of those who are embalmed. And the Egyptians mourned for him seventy days.
Pea naʻe fai ʻae ʻaho ʻe fāngofulu koeʻuhi ko ia; he ko hono ngaahi ʻaho ia kiate kinautolu ʻoku fakatolongaʻi; pea naʻe tangi ʻae kakai ʻIsipite ʻi he ʻaho ʻe fitungofulu koeʻuhi ko ia.
4 And when the days of his mourning were past, Joseph spoke to the house of Pharaoh, saying, If now I have found favour in your eyes, speak, I pray you, in the ears of Pharaoh, saying,
Pea ʻi he hili ʻae ngaahi ʻaho fakamamahi, naʻe lea ʻa Siosefa ki he fale ʻo Felo, ʻo pehē, “Ko eni, kapau kuo u lelei ʻi homou ʻao, ʻoku ou kole kiate kimoutolu ke mou lea ʻi he ʻao ʻo Felo, ʻo pehē,
5 My father made me swear, saying, Behold, I die; in my grave which I have dug myself in the land of Canaan, there shalt thou bury me. And now, let me go up, I pray thee, that I may bury my father; and I will come again.
Naʻe puleʻi au ʻe heʻeku tamai ke u fuakava, ʻo pehē, Vakai, teu mate: pea te ke tanu au ʻi he faʻitoka naʻaku ngaohi maʻaku ʻi he fonua ko Kēnani. Pea ko eni ʻoku ou kole kiate koe, tuku ke u ʻalu ʻo tanu ʻeku tamai, pea te u toe haʻu.”
6 And Pharaoh said, Go up and bury thy father, according as he made thee swear.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Felo, “Ke ke ʻalu ʻo tanu hoʻo tamai, ʻo hangē ko e fuakava naʻa ne fekau ke ke fai.”
7 And Joseph went up to bury his father; and with him went up all the bondmen of Pharaoh, the elders of his house, and all the elders of the land of Egypt,
Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻa Siosefa ke tanu ʻene tamai; pea naʻe ʻalu mo ia ʻae kau matāpule kotoa pē ʻa Felo, mo e kau mātuʻa ʻo hono fale, mo e kau mātuʻa ʻo ʻIsipite,
8 and all the house of Joseph, and his brethren, and his father's house; only their little ones, and their flocks, and their herds, they left in the land of Goshen.
Pea mo e fale kotoa pē ʻo Siosefa, mo hono ngaahi tokoua, mo e fale ʻo ʻene tamai; ko e nau tamaiki, mo e nau fanga manu, mo e nau fanga sipi, naʻa nau tuku pe ʻi he fonua ko Koseni.
9 And there went up with him both chariots and horsemen; and the camp was very great.
Pea naʻe ʻalu mo ia ʻae ngaahi saliote, mo e kau tangata heka hoosi; ko e kakai tokolahi ʻaupito.
10 And they came to the threshing-floor of Atad, which is beyond the Jordan; and there they lamented with a great and very grievous lamentation; and he made a mourning for his father of seven days.
Pea naʻa nau hoko ki he hahaʻanga uite ʻi ʻEtati, ʻaia ʻoku ʻituʻa Sioatani, pea nau tangi ai ʻi he tangi lahi mo fakamamahi: pea naʻa ne fai ʻae tangi ki heʻene tamai ʻi he ʻaho ʻe fitu.
11 And the inhabitants of the land, the Canaanites, saw the mourning at the threshing-floor of Atad, and they said, This is a grievous mourning of the Egyptians. Therefore the name of it was called Abel-Mizraim, which is beyond the Jordan.
Pea kuo mamata ʻe he kakai ʻoe fonua, ʻaia ko e kakai Kēnani, ki he tangi ʻi he potu ʻi ʻEtati, pea nau lea ʻo pehē, “Ko e tangi fakamamahi eni, ki he kakai ʻIsipite;” ko ia naʻe ui ai hono hingoa ʻo ia ko ʻEpelimisilemi, ʻaia ʻoku ʻituʻa Sioatani.
12 And his sons did to him according as he had commanded them;
Pea naʻe fai ʻe hono ngaahi foha kiate ia, ʻo hangē ko ʻene fekau.
13 and his sons carried him into the land of Canaan, and buried him in the cave of the field of Machpelah which Abraham had bought along with the field, for a possession of a sepulchre, of Ephron the Hittite, opposite to Mamre.
He naʻe fata ia ʻe hono ngaahi foha ki he fonua ko Kēnani, ʻo nau tanu ia ʻi he ʻana ʻi he ngoue ko Makipila ʻoku hanga ki Mamili, ʻaia naʻe fakatau maʻana ʻe ʻEpalahame, mo e ngoue ko e tanuʻanga, meia ʻEfilone ʻoe faʻahinga ʻo Heti.
14 And, after he had buried his father, Joseph returned to Egypt, he and his brethren, and all that had gone up with him to bury his father.
Pea naʻe toe liu mai ʻa Siosefa ki ʻIsipite, hili ʻae tanu ʻo ʻene tamai, ʻaia mo hono ngaahi tokoua, mo kinautolu kotoa pē naʻe ʻalu mo ia ke tanu ʻene tamai.
15 And when Joseph's brethren saw that their father was dead, they said, If now Joseph should be hostile to us, and should indeed requite us all the evil that we did to him!
Pea kuo mamata ʻe he ngaahi tokoua ʻo Siosefa, kuo pekia ʻa ʻenau tamai, naʻa nau pehē, “E fehiʻa nai ʻa Siosefa kiate kitautolu, mo totongi kiate kitautolu ʻae kovi kotoa pē naʻa tau fai kiate ia.”
16 And they sent a messenger to Joseph, saying, Thy father commanded before he died, saying,
Pea naʻa nau fekau ʻae tokotaha ke ʻalu kia Siosefa ʻo lea pehē, naʻe fekau ʻe hoʻo tamai ʻi heʻene kei moʻui, ʻo pehē,
17 Thus shall ye speak to Joseph: Oh forgive, I pray thee, the transgression of thy brethren, and their sin! for they did evil to thee. And now, we pray thee, forgive the transgression of the servants of the God of thy father. And Joseph wept when they spoke to him.
“Te mou lea pehē kia Siosefa, ‘ʻOku ou kole ni kiate koe, fakamolemole ʻae kovi ʻa ho ngaahi tokoua mo ʻenau fai hala;’ he naʻa nau fai kovi kiate koe: pea ko eni, ʻoku mau kole kiate koe, fakamolemole ʻae hia ʻae kau tamaioʻeiki ʻae ʻOtua ʻo hoʻo tamai.” Pea naʻe tangi ʻa Siosefa ʻi heʻenau lea kiate ia.
18 And his brethren also went and fell down before his face, and said, Behold, we are thy bondmen.
Pea ʻalu hono ngaahi tokoua ʻo foʻohifo ʻi hono ʻao; ʻo nau lea pehē, “Vakai mai, ko hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki ʻakimautolu.”
19 And Joseph said to them, Fear not: am I then in the place of God?
Pea pehēange ʻe Siosefa kiate kinautolu, “ʻOua te mou manavahē; he ko e fetongi au ʻoe ʻOtua?
20 Ye indeed meant evil against me: God meant it for good, in order that he might do as [it is] this day, to save a great people alive.
Ka ko kimoutolu, naʻa mou mahalo kovi kiate au, ka naʻe puleʻi ia ʻe he ʻOtua ke lelei, koeʻuhi ke fakahoko ʻaia ʻoku fai he ʻaho ni, ke fakahaofi ʻae moʻui ʻae kakai tokolahi.
21 And now, fear not: I will maintain you and your little ones. And he comforted them, and spoke consolingly to them.
Pea ko eni, ke ʻoua naʻa mou manavahē; he te u tauhi ʻakinautolu mo hoʻomou tamaiki.” Pea naʻa ne fakafiemālieʻi ʻakinautolu, ʻo lea ʻofa kiate kinautolu.
22 And Joseph dwelt in Egypt, he and his father's house; and Joseph lived a hundred and ten years.
Pea naʻe nofo ʻa Siosefa ʻi ʻIsipite, ʻa ia, mo e fale ʻo ʻene tamai; pea ko e moʻui ʻa Siosefa ko e taʻu ʻe teau, mo e taʻu ʻe hongofulu.
23 And Joseph saw Ephraim's children of the third [generation]; the sons also of Machir the son of Manasseh were born on Joseph's knees.
Pea naʻe mamata ʻa Siosefa ki he fānau ʻa ʻIfalemi, ko e toʻutangata ʻe tolu ko e fānau foki ʻa Mekili ko e foha ʻo Manase, naʻe ʻomi ʻo tuku ki he funga tui ʻo Siosefa.
24 And Joseph said to his brethren, I die; and God will certainly visit you, and bring you up out of this land, into the land that he swore unto Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Siosefa ki hono ngaahi tokoua, “Teu mate au; pea ko e moʻoni ʻe ʻaʻahi ʻae ʻOtua kiate kimoutolu, ʻo ʻave ʻakimoutolu mei he fonua ni, ki he fonua naʻa ne fuakava ki ai kia ʻEpalahame, mo ʻAisake, pea mo Sēkope.”
25 And Joseph took an oath of the children of Israel, saying, God will certainly visit you; and ye shall carry up my bones hence.
Pea naʻe fai kia Siosefa ʻae fuakava ʻe he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻo pehē, “Ko e moʻoni ʻe ʻaʻahi ʻae ʻOtua kiate kimoutolu, pea te mou fetuku hoku ngaahi hui mei heni.”
26 And Joseph died, a hundred and ten years old; and they embalmed him; and he was put in a coffin in Egypt.
Pea naʻe pekia ai ʻa Siosefa, kuo teau taʻu, mo e taʻu ʻe hongofulu hono motuʻa: pea naʻa nau fakatolongaʻi ia, pea nau ai ia ki he puha ʻi ʻIsipite.
