Genesis 50
1 And when Joseph saw this, he fell upon his father’s face weeping and kissing him.
Тада Јосиф паде на лице оцу свом, и плака над њим целујући га.
2 And he commanded his servants the physicians to embalm his father.
И заповеди Јосиф слугама својим лекарима да мирисима помажу оца његовог; и лекари помазаше мирисима Израиља.
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.
И наврши му се четрдесет дана, јер толико дана треба оним које помажу мирисима; и плакаше за њим Мисирци седамдесет дана.
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:
А кад прођоше жалосни дани, рече Јосиф домашњима Фараоновим говорећи: Ако сам нашао милост пред вама, говорите Фараону и реците:
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.
Отац ме је мој заклео говорећи: Ево, ја ћу скоро умрети; у гробу мом, који ископах у земљи хананској, онде ме погреби. Па сада да идем да погребем оца свог, а после ћу опет доћи.
6 And Pharao said to him: Go up and bury thy father according as he made thee swear.
А Фараон му рече: Иди, погреби оца свог како те је заклео.
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,
И отиде Јосиф да погребе оца свог; и с њим пођоше све слуге Фараонове, старешине од дома његовог и све старешине од земље мисирске.
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.
И сав дом Јосифов и браћа његова и дом оца његовог; само децу своју и овце своје и говеда своја оставише у земљи гесемској.
9 He had also in his train chariots and horsemen: and it was a great company.
А пође с њим кола и коњаника толико да беше војска врло велика.
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.
А кад дођоше на гумно Атадово, које је с оне стране Јордана, плакаше онде много и врло тужно; и Јосиф учини жалост за оцем својим за седам дана.
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.
А људи из оне земље, Хананејци, кад видеше плач на гумну Атадовом, рекоше: У великој су жалости Мисирци. Зато прозваше оно место с оне стране Јордана Жалост мисирска.
12 So the sons of Jacob did as he had commanded them.
И учинише му синови његови како им беше заповедио.
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.
Однесоше га синови његови у земљу хананску, и погребоше га у пећини на њиви макпелској, коју купи Аврам да има свој гроб у Ефрона Хетејина према Мамрији.
14 And Joseph returned into Egypt with his brethren, and all that were in his company, after he had buried his father.
И погребавши оца свог врати се Јосиф у Мисир и браћа његова и сви који беху изашли с њим да погребу оца његовог.
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.
А браћа Јосифова видећи где им отац умре, рекоше: Може бити да се Јосиф срди на нас, па ће нам се осветити за све зло што му учинисмо.
16 And they sent a message to him, saying: Thy father commanded us before he died,
Зато поручише Јосифу: Отац твој заповеди на самрти и рече:
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.
Овако кажите Јосифу: Молим те, опрости браћи својој безакоње и грех, што ти пакостише; сада опрости безакоње слугама Бога оца твог. А Јосиф заплака се кад му то рекоше.
18 And his brethren came to him: and worshipping prostrate on the ground they said: We are thy servants.
После дођоше и браћа његова и падоше пред њим и рекоше: Ево смо слуге твоје.
19 And he answered them: Fear not: can we resist the will of God?
А Јосиф им рече: Не бојте се, зар сам ја место Бога?
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.
Ви сте мислили зло по ме, али је Бог мислио добро, да учини шта се данас збива, да се сачува у животу многи народ.
21 Fear not: I will feed you and your children. And he comforted them, and spoke gently and mildly.
Не бојте се дакле; ја ћу хранити вас и вашу децу. Тако их утеши и ослободи.
22 And he dwelt in Egypt with all his father’s house: and lived a hundred and ten years.
Тако живљаше Јосиф у Мисиру с домом оца свог, и поживе сто и десет година.
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.
И виде Јосиф синове Јефремове до трећег колена; и синови Махира сина Манасијиног родише се и одрастоше на коленима Јосифовим.
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.
И рече Јосиф браћи својој: Ја ћу скоро умрети; али ће вас зацело Бог походити, и извешће вас из ове земље у земљу за коју се заклео Авраму, Исаку и Јакову.
25 And he made them swear to him, saying: God will visit you, carry my bones with you out of this place:
И закле Јосиф синове Израиљеве и рече: Заиста ће вас походити Бог; а ви онда однесите кости моје одавде.
26 And he died being a hundred and ten years old. And being embalmed he was laid in a coffin in Egypt.
Потом умре Јосиф, а беше му сто и десет година; и помазавши га мирисима метнуше га у ковчег у Мисиру.
