< Genesis 47 >

1 And Joseph came and told Pharao, [saying], My father, and my brethren, and their cattle, and their oxen, and all their possessions, are come out of the land of Chanaan, and behold, they are in the land of Gesem.
HELE ae la o Iosepa, hai aku la ia Parao, i aku la, Ua hiki mai nei ko'u makuakane a me ko'u poe hanauna, a me ka lakou hipa, a me ka lakou holoholona, a me ka lakou mea a pau, mai ka aina mai o Kanaana, aia hoi lakou ma ka aina, i Gosena.
2 And he took of his brethren five men, and set them before Pharao.
Lawe ae la ia i elima o kona poe hanauna, hoonoho iho la ia lakou imua o Parao.
3 And Pharao said to the brethren of Joseph, What is your occupation? and they said to Pharao, Your servants are shepherds, both we and our father.
Olelo mai la o Parao i na hoahanau o Iosepa, Heaha ka oukou oihana? I mai la lakou ia Parao, He poe kahuhipa kau poe kauwa nei, o makou a me ko makou poe makua.
4 And they said to Pharao, We are come to sojourn in the land, for there is no pasture for the flocks of your servants, for the famine has prevailed in the land of Chanaan; now then, we will dwell in the land of Gesem. And Pharao said to Joseph, Let them dwell in the land of Gesem; and if you know that there are among them able men, make them overseers of my cattle. So Jacob and his sons came into Egypt, to Joseph; and Pharao, king of Egypt, heard [of it].
I hou mai la lakou ia Parao, Ua hele mai nei makou e noho ma keia aina, no ka mea, aole ai na ka poe holoholona a kau poe kauwa, no ka nui o ka wi ma ka aina o Kanaana. No ia mea, ke noi aku nei makou ia oe, e noho makou ma ka aina i Gosena.
5 And Pharao spoke to Joseph, saying, Your father, and your brethren, are come to you.
A olelo mai la o Parao ia Iosepa, i mai la, Ua hiki mai iou la kou makuakane a me na hoahanau ou.
6 Behold, the land of Egypt is before you; settle your father and your brethren in the best land.
O ka aina o Aigupita, eia no ia imua ou: i ka aina maikai nui, e hoonoho ai oe i kou makuakane a me na hoahanau ou: e noho iho lakou i ka aina o Gosena. A ina i ike oe i na kanaka akamai o lakou, e hoonoho oe ia lakou i mau kahu no ka'u poe holoholona,
7 And Joseph brought in Jacob his father, and set him before Pharao; and Jacob blessed Pharao.
Alakai mai la o Iosepa ia Iakoba i kona makuakane, a hoonoho mai la ia ia imua o Parao. Hoomaikai aku la o Iakoba ia Parao.
8 And Pharao said to Jacob, How many are the years of the days of your life?
Ninau mai la o Parao ia Iakoba, Ehia la na makahiki o kou ola ana?
9 And Jacob said to Pharao, The days of the years of my life, wherein I sojourn, are a hundred and thirty years; few and evil have been the days of the years of my life, they have not attained to the days of the life of my fathers, in which days they sojourned.
I aku la o Iakoba ia Parao, O na la o ko'u mau makahiki i noho malihini ai, hookahi ia haneri makahiki a me kanakolu. He hapa a he ino hoi na la o ko'u mau makahiki e ola nei; aole nae i loaa ia'u na la a me na makahiki o ko'u poe kupuna i ko lakou noho malihini ana.
10 And Jacob blessed Pharao, and departed from him.
Hoomaikai aku la o Iakoba ia Parao, a hele aku la mai ke alo aku o Parao.
11 And Joseph settled his father and his brethren, and gave them a possession in the land of Egypt, in the best land, in the land of Ramesses, as Pharao commanded.
Hoonoho iho la o Iosepa i kona makuakane a me kona poe hoahanau, a haawi aku la oia ia lakou i wahi e noho ai ma ka aina o Aigupita, i kahi aina maikai, i ka aina o Ramese, e like me ke kanoha ana mai a Parao.
12 And Joseph gave provision to his father, and his brethren, and to all the house of his father, corn for each person.
Malama aku la o Iosepa i kona makuakane, a me kona poe hoahanau, a me ka ohana a kona makuakane a pau i ka ai, e like me na waha o ka ohana.
13 And there was no corn in all the land, for the famine prevailed greatly; and the land of Egypt, and the land of Chanaan, fainted for the famine.
Aole ai ma ka aina a pau, no ka mea, ua hanahana loa ka wi. Oki loa iho la ka aina o Aigupita a me ka aina o Kanaana i ka wi.
14 And Joseph gathered all the money that was found in the land of Egypt, and the land of Chanaan, [in return for] the corn which they bought, and he distributed corn to them; and Joseph brought all the money into the house of Pharao.
Hooiliili iho la o Iosepa i ke kala a pau loa ma ka aina o Aigupita, a ma ka aina o Kanaana, no ka ai a lakou i kuai ai; a lawe mai la o Iosepa i ke kala iloko o ka hale o Parao.
15 And all the money failed out of the land of Egypt, and out of the land of Chanaan; and all the Egyptians came to Joseph, saying, Give us bread, and why do we die in your presence? for our money is spent.
Pau iho la ko kala ma ka aina o Aigupita, a ma ka aina o Kanaana, a hele mai la ko Aigupita a pau io Iosepa la, i mai la, Ho mai i ai na makou, no ke aha la makou e make ai imua o kou alo i ka pau ana o ke kala?
16 And Joseph said to them, Bring your cattle, and I will give you bread for your cattle, if your money is spent.
I mai la Iosepa ia lakou, Ina i pau ke kala, ho mai i ka oukou holoholona, a e haawi aku au i ai na oukou no ka oukou holoholona.
17 And they brought their cattle to Joseph; and Joseph gave them bread in return for their horses, and for their sheep, and for their oxen, and for their asses; and Joseph maintained them with bread for all their cattle in that year.
Lawe mai la lakou i ka lakou holoholona ia Iosepa, a haawi aku la o Iosepa i ai na iakou, no na lio, a no na hipa, a no na bipi, a no na hoki, a malama aku la oia ia lakou i ka ai ia makahiki, no ka lakou holoholona.
18 And that year passed, and they came to him in the second year, and said to him, Must we then be consumed from before our lord? for if our money has failed, and our possessions, and our cattle, [brought] to you our lord, and there has not been left to us before our lord more than our own bodies and our land, [we are indeed destitute].
A pau ae la ia makahiki, hele mai la lakou ia ia, i ka lua o na makahiki, i mai la ia ia, Aole makou e huna mai ko makou haku aku, i ka pau ana o ko makou kala, a me ka makou holoholona ia oe i ko makou haku. Aohe mea i koe imua ou, o ko makou kino, a me ko makou aina wale no.
19 In order, then, that we die not before you, and the land be made desolate, buy us and our land for bread, and we and our land will be servants to Pharao: give seed that we may sow, and live and not die, so our land shall not be made desolate.
No ke aha la makou e make ai imua o kou mau maka, o makou a me ko makou aina! E kuai oe ia makou a me ko makou aina, no ka ai, a lilo makou a me ko makou aina i kauwa na Parao. E haawi mai hoi i hua, i ola makou, sole hoi e make, i ole ai e neoneo ka aina.
20 And Joseph bought all the land of the Egyptians, for Pharao; for the Egyptians sold their land to Pharao; for the famine prevailed against them, and the land became Pharao's.
Kuai iho la o Iosepa i ka aina a pau i Aigupita no Parao, no ka mea, kuai aku la na kanaka a pau o Aigupita i ko lakou aina, no ka mea, ua hauahana loa ka wi maluna o lakou, a lilo ae la ka aina no Parao.
21 And he brought the people into bondage to him, for servants, from one extremity of Egypt to the other,
A lawe ae la ia i kanaka o kekahi kihi, a hoonoho ia lakou ma na kulanakauhale ma kela kihi o ka aina.
22 except only the land of the priests; Joseph bought not this, for Pharao gave a portion in the way of gift to the priests; and they ate their portion which Pharao gave them; therefore they sold not their land.
O ka aina o na kahuna, aole ia i kuai, no ka mea, na Parao mai, ka na kahuna, a ai iho la lakou i ka mea a Parao i haawi mai ai na lakou, no ia mea, aole lakou i kuai i ko lakou aina.
23 And Joseph said to all the Egyptians, Behold, I have bought you and your land this day for Pharao; take seed for you, and sow the land.
Olelo iho o Iosepa i kanaka, Eia hoi, ua kuai au ia oukou i keia la no Parao, a me ko oukou aina; eia no ka hua na oukou e kanu i ka aina.
24 And there shall be the fruits of it; and you shall give the fifth part to Pharao, and the four [remaining] parts shall be for yourselves, for seed for the earth, and for food for you, and all that are in your houses.
Eia hoi kekahi, i ka hua ana mai, e haawi oukou i ka hapalima na Parao, a koe no eha mau hapa na oukou, i mea kanu o ka aina, a i mea ai na oukou, a na ko oukou kanaka, a i mea ai hoi na ka oukou kamalii.
25 And they said, You have saved us; we have found favor before our lord, and we will be servants to Pharao.
I mai la lakou, Ua hoola mai oe ia makou, ina e loaa ia makou ka lokomaikaiia mai imua o na maka o ko'u haku, a e lilo auanei makou i poe kauwa na Parao.
26 And Joseph appointed it to them for an ordinance until this day; to reserve a fifth part for Pharao, on the land of Egypt, except only the land of the priests, that was not Pharao's.
Hoopaa iho la o Iosepa ia mea i kanawai, mai ia manawa mai, ma ka aina o Aigupita, na Parao ka hapalima o ka ai; o ka aina o na kahuna wale no ka i koe, aole ia i lilo na Parao.
27 And Israel lived in Egypt, in the land of Gesem, and they gained an inheritance upon it; and they increased and multiplied very greatly.
Noho iho la o Iseraela, ma ka aina o Aigupita, i ka aina o Gosena, a loaa mai la ia lakou ka waiwai ilaila, a hanau mai la lakou, a lilo ae la i poe nui loa.
28 And Jacob survived seventeen years in the land of Egypt; and Jacob's days of the years of his life were a hundred and forty-seven years.
O na makahiki o ka noho ana o Iakoba i ka aina o Aigupita, he umikumamahiku: a o na makahiki a pau o ke ola ana o Iakoba, hookahi haneri makahiki a me kanahakumamahiku.
29 and the days of Israel drew near for him to die: and he called his son Joseph, and said to him, If I have found favor before you, put your hand under my thigh, and you shall execute mercy and truth toward me, so as not to bury me in Egypt.
A kokoke aku la ka la e make ai o Iseraela, hea aku la ia i kana keiki ia Iosepa, i aku la ia ia, Ina i loaa mai ia'u ke alohaia imua o kou maka, e kau mai oe i kou lima malalo o ko'u uha. a e hana mai oe ia'u ma ka lokomaikai a me ka oiaio; ea, mai kanu oe ia'u ma Aigupita nei.
30 But I will sleep with my fathers, and you shall carry me up out of Egypt, and bury me in their sepulchre. And he said, I will do according to your word.
E moe au me o'u mau makua. E lawe oe ia'u mai Aigupita aku, a e kanu ia'u ma ko lakou ilina. I mai la kela, E hana no wau e like mo kau olelo.
31 And he said, Swear to me; and he swore to him. And Israel did reverence, leaning on the top of his staff.
I aku la keia, E hoohiki mai oe ia'u, a hoohiki iho la kela, a kulou hoomana iho la o Iseraela ma ke poo o kona wahi moe.
