Genesis 50
1 And when Joseph saw this, he fell upon his father’s face weeping and kissing him.
Ary Josefa nihohoka tamin’ ny tavan’ ny rainy ka nitomany teo amboniny sady nanoroka azy.
2 And he commanded his servants the physicians to embalm his father.
Ary nasain’ i Josefa nanosotra zava-manitra an-drainy ny mpanompony izay mpanao fanafody; dia nanosotra an’ Isiraely ny mpanao fanafody.
3 And while they were fulfilling his commands, there passed forty days: for this was the manner with bodies that were embalmed, and Egypt mourned for him seventy days.
Ary notanterahiny taminy ny efa-polo andro, fa izany no isan’ ny andro nanosoram-paty; ary ny Egyptiana nisaona azy fito-polo andro.
4 And the time of the mourning being expired, Joseph spoke to the family of Pharao: If I have found favour in your sight, speak in the ears of Pharao:
Ary rehefa tapitra ny andro nisaonana azy, Josefa dia niteny tamin’ ny tao an-tranon’ i Farao ka nanao hoe: Raha mba nahita fitia eo imasonareo aho, masìna ianareo, lazao amin’ i Farao, ka ataovy hoe:
5 For my father made me swear to him, saying: Behold I die: thou shalt bury me in my sepulchre which I have digged for myself in the land of Chanaan. So I will go up and bury my father, and return.
Ny raiko efa nampianiana ahy ka nanao hoe: Indro, ho faty aho; koa ao amin’ ny fasako, izay nohadiko ho ahy any amin’ ny tany Kanana, dia ao no andeveno ahy. Koa ankehitriny, trarantitra ianao, aoka aho hiakatra handevina ny raiko, dia hiverina atỳ indray.
6 And Pharao said to him: Go up and bury thy father according as he made thee swear.
Ary hoy Farao: Miakara ary, ka aleveno ny rainao araka izay nampianianany anao.
7 So he went up, and there went with him all the ancients of Pharao’s house, and all the elders of the land of Egypt,
Dia lasa niakatra Josefa handevina ny rainy; ary niara-niakatra taminy ny mpanompon’ i Farao rehetra, dia ny loholona tao an-tranony sy ny loholona rehetra tany amin’ ny tany Egypta,
8 And the house of Joseph with his brethren, except their children, and their flocks and herds, which they left in the land of Gessen.
ary ny ankohonan’ i Josefa rehetra sy ny rahalahiny ary ny ankohonan-drainy; ny ankizy madinika sy ny ondriny aman’ osiny sy ny ombiny ihany no navelany tao amin’ ny tany Gosena.
9 He had also in his train chariots and horsemen: and it was a great company.
Ary nisy kalesy sy mpitaingin-tsoavaly niara-niakatra taminy koa, ka lehibe dia lehibe ny tobiny.
10 And they came to the threshingfloor of Atad, which is situated beyond the Jordan: where celebrating the exequies with a great and vehement lamentation, they spent full seven days.
Ary rehefa tonga teo Goren’ atada izy, izay ao an-dafin’ i Jordana, dia nanao fisaonana lehibe sy mafy indrindra teo izy; dia nisaona an-drainy hafitoana Josefa.
11 And when the inhabitants of Chanaan saw this, they said: This is a great mourning to the Egyptians. And therefore the name of that place was called, The mourning of Egypt.
Ary rehefa hitan’ ny Kananita tompon-tany ny fisaonana teo Goren-atada, dia hoy izy: Fisaonana mafy amin’ ny Egyptiana izao; izany no nanaovany ny anarany hoe Abel-Egyptiana, izay ao an-dafin’ i Jordana.
12 So the sons of Jacob did as he had commanded them.
Ary ny zanakalahin’ i Jakoba nanao taminy araka izay nandidiany azy,
13 And carrying him into the land of Chanaan, they buried him in the double cave which Abraham had bought together with the field for a possession of a buryingplace, of Ephron the Hethite over against Mambre.
dia nitondra azy tany amin’ ny tany Kanana, ary nandevina azy tao amin’ ny zohy amin’ ny saha Makpela, tandrifin’ i Mamre, dia ilay novidin’ i Abrahama mbamin’ ny saha tamin’ i Efrona Hetita ho tany fandevenana.
14 And Joseph returned into Egypt with his brethren, and all that were in his company, after he had buried his father.
Ary rehefa voalevin’ i Josefa ny rainy, dia niverina tany Egypta izy sy ny rahalahiny mbamin’ izay rehetra niara-niakatra taminy handevina ny rainy.
15 Now he being dead, his brethren were afraid, and talked one with another: Lest perhaps he should remember the wrong he suffered, and requite us all the evil that we did to him.
Ary rehefa hitan’ ny rahalahin’ i Josefa fa maty ny rainy, dia hoy izy: Andrao hanao fo-lentika amintsika Josefa ka hamaly antsika tokoa noho izay ratsy rehetra nataontsika taminy.
16 And they sent a message to him, saying: Thy father commanded us before he died,
Dia naniraka nankany amin’ i Josefa izy ka nanao hoe: Ny rainao nanafatra, fony izy tsy mbola maty,
17 That we should say thus much to thee from him: I beseech thee to forget the wickedness of thy brethren, and the sin and malice they practiced against thee: we also pray thee, to forgive the servants of the God of thy father this wickedness. And when Joseph heard this, he wept.
ka nanao hoe: Izao no holazainareo amin’ i Josefa: Mamela re ny fahadisoan’ ny rahalahinao sy ny fahotany, fa efa nanao ratsy taminao izy; eny, mamela ankehitriny ny fahadisoan’ ny mpanompon’ ny Andriamanitry ny rainao. Dia nitomany Josefa, raha niteny taminy izy ireo.
18 And his brethren came to him: and worshipping prostrate on the ground they said: We are thy servants.
Koa nanatona azy ny rahalahiny, dia niankohoka teo anatrehany ka nanao hoe: Indreto izahay ho mpanomponao.
19 And he answered them: Fear not: can we resist the will of God?
Ary hoy Josefa taminy: Aza matahotra; fa moa solon’ Andriamanitra va aho?
20 You thought evil against me: but God turned it into good, that he might exalt me, as at present you see, and might save many people.
Hianareo no nisaina hanisy ratsy ahy; fa Andriamanitra kosa nisaina izany ho soa, hanao tahaka ny amin’ izao anio izao, hamelona olona betsaka.
21 Fear not: I will feed you and your children. And he comforted them, and spoke gently and mildly.
Koa ankehitriny, aza matahotra ianareo; fa izaho hamelona anareo sy ny zanakareo madinika. Dia nampionona azy sy nanao teny malefaka nahafinaritra azy izy.
22 And he dwelt in Egypt with all his father’s house: and lived a hundred and ten years.
Ary Josefa sy ny ankohonan’ ny rainy nonina tany Egypta; ary ny andro niainan’ i Josefa dia folo amby zato taona.
23 And he saw the children of Ephraim to the third generation. The children also of Machir the son of Manasses were born on Joseph’s knees.
Ary hitan’ i Josefa ny zafiafin’ i Efraima; ny zanak’ i Makira koa, zanakalahin’ i Manase, dia noraisin’ i Josefa ho eo am-pofoany.
24 After which he told his brethren: God will visit you after my death, and will make you go up out of this land, to the land which he swore to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
Ary hoy Josefa tamin’ ny rahalahiny: Ho faty aho; nefa Andriamanitra hamangy anareo tokoa ka hitondra anareo hiala amin’ ity tany ity ho any amin’ ny tany izay nianianany tamin’ i Abrahama sy Isaka ary Jakoba homena azy.
25 And he made them swear to him, saying: God will visit you, carry my bones with you out of this place:
Ary Josefa dia nampianiana ny zanak’ Isiraely ka nanao hoe: Hamangy anareo tokoa Andriamanitra, dia hitondra ny taolako hiala eto ianareo.
26 And he died being a hundred and ten years old. And being embalmed he was laid in a coffin in Egypt.
Dia maty Josefa, rehefa folo amby zato taona; ary dia nohosorany zava-manitra izy ka napetrany tao anatin’ ny vata tany Egypta.
