< Genesis 50 >
1 Joseph went and hugged his father, weeping over him and kissing him.
Nihotrak’ an-daharan-drae’eo t’Iosefe le nangoihoy ama’e vaho nañorok’ aze.
2 Then Joseph instructed the physicians who worked for him to embalm his father's body. So the physicians embalmed Israel.
Linili’ Iosefe o mpanaha mpitoro’eo hañoloñe an-drae’e. Le hinolonkolo’ o mpanahao t’Israele;
3 This took a full 40 days, the normal time for the process, and the Egyptians mourned for him for 70 days.
efa-polo andro ty nirì’ iereo ama’e, amy te izay o andro mahafonitse ty fañolonkoloñan-jañahareo. Nandala fitom-polo andro ho aze o nte-Mitsraimeo.
4 Once the time of mourning was over, Joseph said to Pharaoh's officials, “If you'd be so kind, please speak to Pharaoh on my behalf, and explain to him that
Ie niheneke o androm-pandalàñe azeo le hoe ty lañona’ Iosefe amo añ’anjomba’ i Paròo, Aa naho nahatendreke isoke am-pahaisaha’areo iraho le saontsio an-dravembia’ i Parò ty hoe:
5 my father made me swear an oath, telling me, ‘You must bury me in the tomb I've prepared for myself in Canaan. Please allow me to go and bury my father and then I'll return.’”
Nampifantàn-draeko ahy ty hoe: Ingo fa hikenkan-draho. Le aleveño an-kibory hinaliko ho am-batako an-tane Kanàne ao. Aa le angao iraho hionjom-b’eo handeveñe an-draeko vaho himpoly.
6 Pharaoh replied, “Go and bury your father as he made you swear to do.”
Hoe ty natoi’ i Parò, Mionjona, aleveño ty rae’o amy nampifantà’e azoy.
7 Joseph went to bury his father, and all Pharaoh's officials went with him—all Pharaoh's senior advisors and all the leaders of Egypt—
Aa le nionjoñe t’Iosefe handeveñe an-drae’e. Fonga nindre ama’e ze mpitoro’ i Parò naho o roandria añ’ anjomba’e ao naho o roandria’ ty tane Mitsraime iabio,
8 as well as Joseph's family, his brothers, and his father's family. They only left the small children and their flocks and herds back in Goshen.
naho ty añ’anjomba’ Iosefe iaby, o rahalahi’eo vaho ty añ’ anjomban-drae’e. Fe napok’ an-tane Gosena ao o ana’iareoo naho o mpirai-trokeo naho o lia-raikeo.
9 They were accompanied by chariots and horsemen—a really large procession.
Nindre-lia ama’e o sarete reketse mpindaio. Nivalobohòke jabajaba.
10 When they got to the threshing floor of Atad, on the other side of the Jordan, they wept loudly in sorrow. Joseph held a seven-day ceremony of mourning for his father there.
Ie nivotrak’ an-toem-pamofoha’ i Atade, alafe’ Iordaney, le nanao fandalàñe jabajaba nampioremeñe; fito andro ty nandalà’e an-drae’e.
11 The Canaanites who lived there watched the ceremony of mourning at the threshing floor of Atad. They said, “This is a very sad time of mourning for the Egyptians,” so they renamed the place Abel-mizraim, which is on the other side of the Jordan.
Ie niisa’ o nte-Kanàne mpimoneñe amy taneio i fandalàñe an-tanem-pamofoha’ i Atadey le hoe iereo. Fandalàñe mampioje o anoe’ o nte-Mitsraimeo. Aa le natao Abele Mitsraime i tane andafe’ Iordaney zay,
12 Jacob's sons did what he had instructed them to do.
naho nihenefe’ o ana-dahi’eo i nafè’ey:
13 They carried his body to Canaan and buried him in the cave at Machpelah in the field near Mamre, which Abraham had bought from Ephron the Hittite as a burial site.
Nitakone’ iereo mb’ an-tane Kanàne mb’eo vaho naleve’ iareo an-dakato an-tete’ i Makpelà ao, i vinili’ i Avrahame rekets’ i tonday marine i Mamrè amy Efrone nte-Khete ho tanen-dona’ey.
14 After they had buried their father, Joseph and his brothers returned to Egypt along with all those who had gone with them.
Ie nandeveñe an-drae’e t’Iosefe le nimpoly mb’e Mitsraime añe rekets’ o rahalahi’eo naho i maro nindre nionjoñe ama’e mb’eo nandeveñe an-drae’ey.
15 However, now that their father was dead, Joseph's brothers became worried, saying, “Maybe Joseph is holding a grudge against us, and he'll pay us back for all the bad things we did to him.”
Aa ie nioni’ o rahalahi’ Iosefeo te nivilasy ty rae’ iareo le hoe ty fitsakorea’ iareo: Hera mitan-kabò aman-tika t’Iosefe hañondroha’e aman-tikañe ze fonga raty nanoan-tika?
16 So they sent a message to Joseph to tell him, “Before your father died, he gave this order,
Aa le nañitrik’ am’Iosefe iereo nanao ty hoe, Hoe ty nafèn-drae’o aolo’ t’ie nihomake,
17 ‘This is what you are to tell Joseph: Forgive your brothers their sins, the bad things they did to you, treating you in such a nasty way.’ Now please forgive us our sins, we who are servants of the God of your father.” When Joseph received their message, he cried.
Zao ty ho enta’ areo am’ Iosefe: Ehe apoho ty tahiñe nanoa’ o rahalahi’oo naho i hakeo nanoe’ iereo nijoy azoy. Aa ie henaneo, ehe apoho ty hakeo’ o mpitoron’ Añaharen-drae’oo. Naharovetse t’Iosefe i enta’ iareo ama’ey.
18 Then his brothers themselves came and fell down before Joseph and said, “We are your slaves!”
Nimb’eo amy zao o rahalahi’eo, nibabok’ añ’atrefa’eo, nanao ty hoe, Intoan-jahay fa ondevo’o.
19 “You don't need to be afraid!” he told them. “I don't stand in the place of God, do I?
Aa hoe t’Iosefe am’ iereo, Ko hembañe, mpisolo an’ Andrianañahare v’o ahoo?
20 While you planned bad things for me, God planned it for good so that in the end many lives could be saved.
Inahareo ka, toe nikinia raty amako fe sinafirin’ Añahare ho soa, hiboaha’ o oniñe henaneo, hampitambeloma’e ondaty mitozantoza.
21 So don't worry. I'll go on taking care of you and your children.” Speaking kindly like this he calmed them down.
Aa le ko mahimahiñe, fa ho fahanako nahareo naho o keleia’ areoo. Amy hoe zay ty nampanintsiña’e, ie nisaontsy añ’arofo’ iareo ao.
22 Joseph remained in Egypt, together with his father's whole family. He lived to be 110,
Nimoneñe e Mitsraime ao t’Iosefe, ie naho ty hasavereñan-drae’e; vaho niveloñe zato-tsi-folo taoñe.
23 and saw three generations of his son Ephraim, and the sons of Makir, Manasseh's son, were placed in his lap when they were born.
Niisa’ Iosefe o ana’ i Efraimeo pak’ ami’ty tariratse faha telo; nibeizeñe añ’ ongo’ Iosefe ka o ana’ i Makire, ana’ i Menasèo.
24 “I'm going to die soon,” Joseph told his brothers, “but God will be with you, and he will lead you out of this country to the land that he swore to give to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.”
Le hoe t’Iosefe aman-drahalahi’e, fa hikenkan-draho; le toe hitotsak’ ama’areo t’i Andrianañahare hinday anahareo hienga an-tane atoy homb’an-tane nifantà’e amy Avrahame, am’ Ietsàke naho am’Iakòbe.
25 Joseph made the sons of Israel swear an oath, saying, “When God comes to be with you, you must take my bones with you when you leave.”
Aa le nampifantà’ Iosefe amo ana’ Israeleo ty hoe, Toe hañimba anahareo t’i Andrianañahare, vaho hakare’ areo an-tane atoy o taolakoo.
26 Joseph died when he was 110. After his body was embalmed, he was placed in a coffin in Egypt.
Nihomake t’Iosefe, ie ni-zato-tsi-folo taoñe, le naholonkoloñe naho napololòtse an-tsandòke e Mitsraime ao.
