< Genesis 47 >

1 Then came Ioseph and tolde Pharaoh, and sayde, My father, and my brethren, and their sheepe, and their cattell, and all that they haue, are come out of the land of Canaan, and behold, they are in the land of Goshen.
Ary Josefa nankao amin’ i Farao ka nilaza taminy hoe: Ny raiko sy ny rahalahiko ary ny ondry aman’ osiny sy ny ombiny mbamin’ izay rehetra ananany dia efa tonga avy tany amin’ ny tany Kanana; ka, indreo, ao amin’ ny tany Gosena izy.
2 And Ioseph tooke part of his brethren, euen fiue men, and presented them vnto Pharaoh.
Ary ny dimy lahy tamin’ ny rahalahiny no nalainy ka nentiny teo anatrehan’ i Farao.
3 Then Pharaoh said vnto his brethren, What is your trade? And they answered Pharaoh, Thy seruants are shepheards, both we and our fathers.
Ary hoy Farao tamin’ ireo rahalahin’ i Josefa: Inona moa no raharaha fanaonareo? Dia hoy izy tamin’ i Farao: Mpiandry ondry izahay mpanomponao hatramin’ ny razanay.
4 They sayde moreouer vnto Pharaoh, For to soiourne in ye lande are we come: for thy seruants haue no pasture for their sheepe, so sore is ye famine in the lande of Canaan. Nowe therefore, we pray thee, let thy seruants dwel in the land of Goshen.
Ary hoy koa izy tamin’ i Farao: Mba hivahiny eto amin’ ity tany ity no nihavianay; fa tsy misy ahitra ho an’ ny ondry aman’ osin’ ny mpanomponao, fa mafy ny mosary any amin’ ny tany Kanana; koa ankehitriny, trarantitra ianao, aoka mba honina ao amin’ ny tany Gosena ny mpanomponao.
5 Then spake Pharaoh to Ioseph, saying, Thy father and thy brethren are come vnto thee.
Ary Farao dia niteny tamin’ i Josefa ka nanao hoe: Ny rainao sy ny rahalahinao efa tonga atỳ aminao;
6 The lande of Egypt is before thee: in the best place of the land make thy father and thy brethren dwel: let the dwel in the land of Goshen: and if thou knowest that there be men of actiuitie among them, make them rulers ouer my cattell.
ny tany Egypta dia eo anoloanao; koa amin’ izay tany tsara indrindra no amponeno ny rainao sy ny rahalahinao; aoka honina ao amin’ ny tany Gosena izy ary raha fantatrao fa misy lehilahy mahay eo aminy, tendreo izy ho lehiben’ ny mpiandry ny omby aman’ ondriko.
7 Ioseph also brought Iaakob his father, and set him before Pharaoh. And Iaakob saluted Pharaoh.
Dia nentin’ i Josefa ho eo anatrehan’ i Farao Jakoba rainy; ary Jakoba dia nisaotra an’ i Farao.
8 Then Pharaoh sayde vnto Iaakob, Howe olde art thou?
Ary hoy Farao tamin’ i Jakoba: Firy taona moa no andro niainanao?
9 And Iaakob sayd vnto Pharaoh, The whole time of my pilgrimage is an hundreth and thirty yeeres: fewe and euill haue the dayes of my life bene, and I haue not attayned vnto the yeeres of the life of my fathers, in the dayes of their pilgrimages.
Dia hoy Jakoba tamin’ i Farao: Telo-polo amby zato taona no andro nivahiniako; sady vitsy no ratsy ny andro niainako ka tsy nahatratra ny andro niainan’ ny razako tamin’ ny andro nivahiniany.
10 And Iaakob tooke leaue of Pharaoh, and departed from the presence of Pharaoh.
Ary Jakoba, rehefa nisaotra an’ i Farao, dia lasa niala teo anatrehany.
11 And Ioseph placed his father, and his brethren, and gaue them possession in the lande of Egypt, in the best of the land, euen in the lande of Rameses, as Pharaoh had commanded.
Dia namponenin’ i Josefa ny rainy sy ny rahalahiny ka nomeny zara-tany tao amin’ ny tany Egypta, dia tao amin’ ny tany tsara indrindra, tao amin’ ny tany Ramesesa, araka izay efa nandidian’ i Farao.
12 And Ioseph nourished his father, and his brethren, and all his fathers houshold with bread, euen to the yong children.
Dia novelomin’ i Josefa tamin’ ny hanina ny rainy sy ny rahalahiny mbamin’ ny ankohonan’ ny rainy rehetra, araka ny isan’ ny zanany avy.
13 Now there was no bread in all the land: for the famine was exceeding sore: so that the land of Egypt, and the land of Canaan were famished by reason of the famine.
Ary tsy nisy hanina teo amin’ ny tany rehetra; fa mafy indrindra ny mosary, ka efa reraka ny tany Egypta sy ny tany Kanana noho ny mosary.
14 And Ioseph gathered all the money, that was found in the land of Egypt, and in the land of Canaan, for the corne which they bought, and Ioseph layd vp the money in Pharaohs house.
Dia nangonin’ i Josefa ny vola rehetra izay hita tany amin’ ny tany Egypta sy tany amin’ ny tany Kanana, dia izay vidin’ ny vary novidin’ ny olona, ka nampidirin’ i Josefa tao an-tranon’ i Farao ny vola.
15 So when money fayled in the lande of Egypt, and in the lande of Canaan, then all the Egyptians came vnto Ioseph, and sayde, Giue vs bread: for why should we dye before thee? for our money is spent.
Ary rehefa lany avokoa ny vola tany amin’ ny tany Egypta sy tany amin’ ny tany Kanana, dia nankeo amin’ i Josefa ny Egyptiana rehetra ka nanao hoe: Omeo hanina izahay; fa nahoana no dia ho faty eto anatrehanao izahay? fa efa lany avokoa ny vola.
16 Then saide Ioseph, Bring your cattell, and I will giue you for your cattell, if your money be spent.
Ary hoy kosa Josefa: Omeo ny omby aman’ ondrinareo hotakalozako, raha lany ny vola.
17 So they brought their cattell vnto Ioseph, and Ioseph gaue them bread for the horses, and for the flockes of sheepe, and for the heards of cattel, and for the asses: so he fed them with bread for all their cattell that yeere.
Dia nentiny tany amin’ i Josefa ny omby aman’ ondriny, ka notakalozan’ i Josefa hanina ny soavaliny sy ny ondry aman’ osiny ary ny ombiny sy ny borikiny; dia nomeny hanina izy tamin’ izany taona izany ho takalon’ ny bibiny rehetra.
18 But when the yeere was ended, they came vnto him the next yeere, and sayd vnto him, We will not hide from my lord, that since our money is spent, and my lord hath the heards of the cattel, there is nothing left in the sight of my lorde, but our bodies and our ground.
Ary rehefa tapitra izany taona izany, dia nankeo aminy indray ny olona tamin’ ny taona faharoa ka nanao taminy hoe: Tsy azonay afenina amin’ itompokolahy fa efa lany ny vola, ary efa lasan’ itompokolahy avokoa ny biby fiompy; tsy misy na inona na inona intsony eto imason’ itompokolahy afa-tsy ny tenanay sy ny taninay;
19 Why shall we perish in thy sight, both we, and our land? bye vs and our land for bread, and we and our land will be bonde to Pharaoh: therefore giue vs seede, that we may liue and not dye, and that the land go not to waste.
nahoana no dia ho faty izahay eto anatrehanao, dia izahay sy ny taninay? Takalozy hanina ny tenanay sy ny taninay, dia ho mpanompon’ i Farao izahay sy ny taninay: ary omeo voa hafafy izahay, mba ho velona, fa tsy ho faty, ary mba tsy ho lao ny tany.
20 So Ioseph bought all the lande of Egypt for Pharaoh: for the Egyptians solde euery man his ground because the famine was sore vpon the: so the land became Pharaohs.
Dia notakalozan’ i Josefa ho an’ i Farao ny tany Egypta rehetra; fa ny Egyptiana samy nanakalo ny sahany avy, satria resy mosary izy; ary dia lasan’ i Farao ny tany.
21 And he remoued the people vnto the cities, from one side of Egypt euen to the other.
Ary ny olona dia nafindrany ho ao amin’ ny tanàna hatramin’ ny faran’ ny faritr’ i Egypta rehetra.
22 Onely the lande of the Priestes bought he not: for the Priestes had an ordinarie of Pharaoh, and they did eate their ordinarie, which Pharaoh gaue them: wherefore they solde not their grounde.
Ny tanin’ ny mpisorona ihany no tsy mba natakalony; fa nanana anjara tamin’ i Farao ny mpisorona ka nihinana ny anjara izay nomen’ i Farao azy; izany no tsy nanakalozany ny taniny.
23 Then Ioseph sayd vnto the people, Behold, I haue bought you this daye, and your lande for Pharaoh: lo, here is seede for you: sowe therefore the grounde.
Dia hoy Josefa tamin’ ny olona: Indro, efa voavidiko androany ianareo sy ny taninareo ho an’ i Farao; koa indreny ny voa hafafinareo, dia hofafazanareo ny tany.
24 And of the encrease ye shall giue the fifth part vnto Pharaoh, and foure partes shalbe yours for the seede of the fielde, and for your meate, and for them of your housholdes, and for your children to eate.
Ary rehefa misy vokatra, dia haterinareo ho an’ i Farao ny ampahadiminy; ary ho anareo kosa ny efa-toko, ho voa hafafy any an-tsaha sy hohaninareo mbamin’ izay ao an-tranonareo ary hohanin’ ny zanakareo.
25 Then they answered, Thou hast saued our liues: let vs finde grace in the sight of my Lord, and we will be Pharaohs seruants.
Ary hoy izy: Efa namonjy ny ainay ianao; aoka mba hahita fitia eto imason’ itompokolahy izahay, dia ho mpanompon’ i Farao.
26 Then Ioseph made it a lawe ouer the land of Egypt vnto this day, that Pharaoh should haue the fift part, except the land of the priests only, which was not Pharaohs.
Dia nataon’ i Josefa ho lalana tany amin’ ny tany Egypta mandraka androany izany; fa ho an’ i Farao ny ampahadiminy; fa ny tanin’ ny mpisorona ihany no tsy mba lasan’ i Farao.
27 And Israel dwelt in the lande of Egypt, in the countrey of Goshen: and they had their possessions therein, and grewe and multiplied exceedingly.
Ary nonina tao amin’ ny tany Egypta ny Isiraely, dia tao amin’ ny tany Gosena; ary nahazo zara-tany tao izy, dia nihamaro anaka ka nihabetsaka indrindra.
28 Moreouer, Iaakob liued in the lande of Egypt seuenteene yeeres, so that the whole age of Iaakob was an hundreth fourtie and seuen yeere.
Ary ny andro niainan’ i Jakoba tao amin’ ny tany Egypta dia fito ambin’ ny folo taona; koa ny andro rehetra niainan’ i Jakoba dia fito amby efa-polo amby zato taona.
29 Now when the time drewe neere that Israel must dye, he called his sonne Ioseph, and sayde vnto him, If I haue nowe founde grace in thy sight, put thine hand nowe vnder my thigh, and deale mercifully and truely with me: burie me not, I pray thee, in Egypt.
Ary rehefa antomotra ny andro hahafatesan’ Isiraely, dia nampaka an’ i Josefa zanany izy ka nanao taminy hoe: Raha mba nahita fitia eo imasonao aho, masìna ianao, ataovy ato ambanin’ ny feko ny tananao, ka ataovy amiko izay soa sy izay marina; masìna ianao aza alevina atỳ Egypta aho.
30 But when I shall sleepe with my fathers, thou shalt carry me out of Egypt, and bury mee in their buryall. And he answered, I will doe as thou hast sayde.
Fa rehefa lasa mody mandry any amin’ ny razako aho, dia ho entinao hiala atỳ Egypta ka halevinao ao amin’ ny fasany. Dia hoy Josefa: Hanao araka ny teninao aho.
31 The he said, Sweare vnto me. And he sware vnto him. And Israel worshipped towardes the beds head.
Ary hoy Jakoba: Mianiana ary amiko. Dia nianiana taminy izy. Dia niankohoka teo an-dohan’ ny farafara Isiraely.
