Genesis 50
1 And Joseph fell upon his father's face, and wept on him, and kissed him.
Jozefi amibwakaki na nzoto ya tata na ye, alelaki ye mpe apesaki ye beze.
2 And Joseph commanded his servants the embalmers to embalm his father; and the embalmers embalmed Israel.
Bongo Jozefi apesaki mitindo na minganga oyo bazalaki kosala epai na ye ete bakawusa nzoto ya Isalaele, tata na ye. Boye minganga bakawusaki nzoto ya Isalaele,
3 And they fulfilled forty days for him, for so are the days of embalming numbered; and Egypt mourned for him seventy days.
bakokisaki mikolo tuku minei oyo esengelaki mpo na kokawusa nzoto ya mowei. Bato ya Ejipito basalelaki ye matanga mikolo tuku sambo.
4 And when the days of mourning were past, Joseph spoke to the princes of Pharao, saying, If I have found favor in your sight, speak concerning me in the ears of Pharao, saying,
Tango mikolo ya matanga esilaki, Jozefi alobaki na bakonzi oyo basalaka na ndako ya Faraon: — Soki nazwi ngolu na miso na bino, bolobela ngai epai ya Faraon. Boyebisa ye
5 My father adjured me, saying, In the sepulchre which I dug for myself in the land of Chanaan, there you shall bury me; now then I will go up and bury my father, and return again.
ete tata na ngai alapisaki ngai ndayi: « Nakomi pembeni ya kokufa, bokunda ngai kati na kunda oyo natobolaki na libanga, na mokili ya Kanana. » Mpe sik’oyo, tika ete apesa ngai nzela mpo ete nakende kokunda tata na ngai, bongo na sima nde nakozonga.
6 And Pharao said to Joseph, Go up, bury your father, as he constrained you to swear.
Faraon azongisaki: — Kende mpe kunda tata na yo ndenge alapisaki yo ndayi.
7 So Joseph went up to bury his father; and all the servants of Pharao went up with him, and the elders of his house, and all the elders of the land of Egypt.
Boye Jozefi akendeki kokunda tata na ye; bakalaka nyonso ya lokumu ya Faraon bakendeki elongo na ye: bakonzi oyo bazalaki kosala na ndako na ye mpe bakonzi nyonso ya Ejipito
8 And all the household of Joseph, and his brethren, and all the house of his father, and his kindred; and they left behind the sheep and the oxen in the land of Gesem.
elongo na bato nyonso ya ndako ya Jozefi, bandeko na ye ya mibali mpe bato nyonso oyo bazalaki na ndako ya tata na ye. Bana na bango kaka nde batikalaki na Gosheni na bameme, bantaba mpe bangombe na bango.
9 And there went up with him also chariots and horsemen; and there was a very great company.
Jozefi atambolaki lisusu elongo na bashareti mpe bato oyo batambolaka likolo ya bampunda. Ezalaki mobembo ya bato ebele penza.
10 And they came to the threshing floor of Atad, which is beyond Jordan; and they bewailed him with a great and very sore lamentation; and he made a mourning for his father seven days.
Tango bakomaki na etando ya Atadi, pembeni ya Yordani, basalaki matanga ya monene penza. Jozefi asalaki mikolo sambo ya matanga mpo na tata na ye.
11 And the inhabitants of the land of Chanaan saw the mourning at the floor of Atad, and said, This is a great mourning to the Egyptians; therefore he called its name, The mourning of Egypt, which is beyond Jordan.
Bongo tango bato ya Kanana oyo bazalaki kovanda kuna bamonaki matanga wana na etando ya Atadi, balobaki: « Bato ya Ejipito bazali na milulu minene ya matanga. » Yango wana babengaki esika yango Abele-Mitsirayimi, oyo ezali pembeni ya Yordani.
12 And thus his sons did to him.
Bana mibali ya Jakobi basalaki ndenge tata na bango atindaki bango.
13 So his sons carried him up into the land of Chanaan, and buried him in the double cave, which cave Abraam bought for possession of a burying place, of Ephrom the Chettite, before Mambre.
Bamemaki ye na mokili ya Kanana mpe bakundaki ye na lidusu ya mabanga oyo ezali na elanga ya Makipela, pembeni ya Mamire, elanga oyo Abrayami asombaki epai ya Efroni, moto ya Iti, mpo ete akomisa yango lilita na ye.
14 And Joseph returned to Egypt, he and his brethren, and those that had gone up with him to bury his father.
Sima na kokunda tata na ye, Jozefi azongaki na Ejipito elongo na bandeko na ye ya mibali mpe bato nyonso oyo balandaki ye mpo na kokunda tata na ye.
15 And when the brethren of Joseph saw that their father was dead, they said, [Let us take heed], lest at any time Joseph remember evil against us, and recompense to us all the evils which we have done against him.
Tango bandeko mibali ya Jozefi bamonaki ete tata na bango asili kokufa, balobaki: « Tango mosusu Jozefi akoyina biso mpe akozongisela biso mabe nyonso oyo tosalaki ye! »
16 And they came to Joseph, and said, Your father adjured [us] before his death, saying,
Boye batindelaki Jozefi maloba oyo: « Liboso ete tata na yo akufa, atikaki maloba oyo: ‹ Tala makambo oyo bokoyebisa Jozefi:
17 Thus say you to Joseph, Forgive them their injustice and their sin, forasmuch as they have done you evil; and now pardon the injustice of the servants of the God of your father. And Joseph wept while they spoke to him.
‘Nasengi ete olimbisa masumu ya bandeko na yo mpe mabe oyo basalaki yo! Sik’oyo, nabondeli yo, limbisa masumu ya basali ya Nzambe ya tata na yo!’ › » Tango Jozefi ayokaki maloba yango, alelaki.
18 And they came to him and said, We, these [persons], are your servants.
Bandeko na ye bayaki, bamibwakaki liboso na ye mpe balobaki: — Tozali bawumbu na yo.
19 And Joseph said to them, Fear not, for I am God's.
Kasi Jozefi alobaki na bango: — Bobanga te! Boni, ngai nazali na esika ya Nzambe?
20 You took counsel against me for evil, but God took counsel for me for good, that [the matter] might be as [it is] today, and much people might be fed.
Bino bokanisaki kosala ngai mabe, kasi Nzambe abongolaki yango bolamu mpo na kokokisa, ndenge ezali kosalema sik’oyo, lobiko ya bomoi ya bato ebele.
21 And he said to them, Fear not, I will maintain you, and your families: and he comforted them, and spoke kindly to them.
Yango wana, bobanga te! Nakokokisa posa na bino mpe ya bana na bino. Akitisaki bango mitema mpe alobelaki bango na boboto nyonso.
22 And Joseph lived in Egypt, he and his brethren, and all the family of his father; and Joseph lived a hundred and ten years.
Jozefi avandaki na Ejipito elongo na libota nyonso ya tata na ye. Awumelaki na bomoi mibu nkama moko na zomi.
23 And Joseph saw the children of Ephraim to the third generation; and the sons of Machir the son of Manasse were borne on the sides of Joseph.
Amonaki bakitani ya Efrayimi kino na molongo ya misato. Amonaki lisusu bana ya Makiri, mwana mobali ya Manase, ba-oyo babotamaki na mabolongo ya Jozefi.
24 And Joseph spoke to his brethren, saying, I die, and God will surely visit you, and will bring you out of this land to the land concerning which God sware to our fathers, Abraam, Isaac, and Jacob.
Jozefi alobaki na bandeko na ye ya mibali: « Nakomi pene ya kokufa. Kasi ya solo, Nzambe akosalisa bino mpe akobimisa bino na mokili oyo, mpo na kokotisa bino na mokili oyo alakaki epai ya Abrayami, ya Izaki mpe ya Jakobi tango alapaki ndayi. »
25 And Joseph adjured the sons of Israel, saying, At the visitation with which God shall visit you, then you shall carry up my bones hence with you.
Jozefi alapisaki bana mibali ya Isalaele ndayi mpe alobaki na bango: « Tango Nzambe akosunga bino, bokolongola mikuwa na ngai na esika oyo. »
26 And Joseph died, aged an hundred and ten years; and they prepared his corpse, and put him in a coffin in Egypt.
Bongo Jozefi akufaki tango akokisaki mibu ya mbotama nkama moko na zomi. Tango basilisaki kokawusa nzoto na ye, batiaki ye na sanduku na Ejipito.
