Genesis 50
1 And Joseph fell upon his father's face, and wept on him, and kissed him.
Yosef tow ne ho hwee nʼagya so suu no, na ofew nʼano.
2 And Joseph commanded his servants the embalmers to embalm his father; and the embalmers embalmed Israel.
Ɛno akyi no, Yosef maa ne duruyɛfo bɛhyɛɛ nʼagya Israel akyenkyennuru, sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a, ɔrensɛe. Enti oduruyɛfo no hyɛɛ no akyenkyennuru.
3 And they fulfilled forty days for him, for so are the days of embalming numbered; and Egypt mourned for him seventy days.
Wɔde adaduanan na ɛhyɛɛ Israel akyenkyennuru no, efisɛ saa nna dodow no na ɛsɛ sɛ wɔde hyɛ no aduru no. Misraimfo suu no nnafua aduɔson.
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,
Wosuu no wiee no, Yosef kasa kyerɛɛ Farao fifo se, “Sɛ manya mo anim anuonyam a, monka nkyerɛ Farao mma me se,
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.
‘Mʼagya ma mekaa ntam,’ na ɔkae se: Hwɛ, aka kakra na mawu. Enti sɛ miwu a, ɔboda a mʼankasa mitwaa wɔ Kanaan asase so no mu na munkosie me. ‘Enti momma me kwan mma minkosie mʼagya, na mɛsan aba.’”
6 And Pharao said to Joseph, Go up, bury your father, as he constrained you to swear.
Farao penee akwansrɛ no so, kae se, “Kɔ na kosie wʼagya, sɛnea ɔmaa wo kaa no ntam no.”
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.
Enti Yosef kɔ kosiee nʼagya. Farao asomfo nyinaa ne ne mpanyimfo ne nʼatenankongua ne Misraim nnipa titiriw nyinaa kogyaa Yosef ayi
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.
kaa Yosef fifo nyinaa a ne nuabarimanom ne nʼagya fifo no ho. Wɔn mma ne wɔn nguan ne wɔn anantwi nko ara na wogyaw wɔn wɔ Gosen asase so hɔ.
9 And there went up with him also chariots and horsemen; and there was a very great company.
Nteaseɛnam ne apɔnkɔsotefo nso kaa wɔn ho kɔɔ ayi no bi. Nnipadɔm pa ara na wɔkɔe.
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.
Woduu Atad a ne nkyerɛase ne baabi a wɔpo atoko, a ɛbɛn Asubɔnten Yordan no, wɔde nnanson twaa agyaadwo, yɛɛ Yosef agya Israel ayi kɛse wɔ hɔ.
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.
Bere a Kanaanfo a na wɔte asase no so huu sɛnea wosi yɛɛ ayi no wɔ Atad no, wɔkae se, “Eyi yɛ ayi kɛse bi a Misraimfo ayɛ.” Ɛno nti, Kanaanfo a wɔte asase no so no too hɔ din Abel-Misraim, a ne nkyerɛase ne Misraimfo reyɛ ayi kɛse.
12 And thus his sons did to him.
Enti Yakob mmabarima no yɛɛ sɛnea wɔn agya kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ wɔnyɛ no pɛpɛɛpɛ.
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.
Wɔsoaa no, de no kɔɔ Kanaan asase so, kosiee no wɔ ɔboda a ɛwɔ Makpela a ɛbɛn Mamrɛ afuw a na Abraham atɔ afi Hetini Efron nkyɛn de ayɛ amusiei no mu.
14 And Joseph returned to Egypt, he and his brethren, and those that had gone up with him to bury his father.
Yosef siee nʼagya wiee no, ɔne ne nuanom ne wɔn a wokogyaa no ayi no nyinaa san baa Misraim.
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.
Yosef agya wu akyi no, ne nuanom no de ehu ka kyerɛɛ wɔn ho wɔn ho se, “Sɛ ɛba sɛ Yosef da so wɔ yɛn ho menasepɔw, na otua yɛn bɔne ahorow a yɛayɛ no nyinaa so ka a, na yɛreyɛ no dɛn?”
16 And they came to Joseph, and said, Your father adjured [us] before his death, saying,
Enti wotuu nnipa kɔɔ Yosef hɔ kɔka kyerɛɛ no se, “Wʼagya kaa saa asɛm yi ansa na ɔrewu.
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.
‘Asɛm yi na ɛsɛ sɛ moka kyerɛ Yosef: Mesrɛ wo, fa bɔne ahorow a wo nuanom ayɛ wo no nyinaa kyɛ wɔn.’ Enti afei mesrɛ wo, fa Onyankopɔn a wʼagya som no no nkoa bɔne kyɛ wɔn.” Bere a Yosef tee asɛm a ne nuanom no kae no, osui.
18 And they came to him and said, We, these [persons], are your servants.
Yosef nuabarimanom no bɛtotow wɔn ho guguu nʼanim, kae se, “Yɛyɛ wo nkoa.”
19 And Joseph said to them, Fear not, for I am God's.
Nanso Yosef ka kyerɛɛ wɔn se, “Munnsuro me! Meyɛ Onyankopɔn a metumi abu mo atɛn, atwe mo aso ana?
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.
Ɛwɔ mu sɛ moyɛɛ mo adwene sɛ mobɛyɛ me bɔne de, nanso na Onyankopɔn adwene ne sɛ, ɛbɛdan ade pa, sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a obetumi agye nnipa dodow nkwa, sɛnea ɔreyɛ no nnɛ yi.
21 And he said to them, Fear not, I will maintain you, and your families: and he comforted them, and spoke kindly to them.
Enti munnsuro! Mʼankasa mede biribiara a ehia mo ne mo mma nyinaa bɛma mo.” Yosef nam saa kasakyerɛ yi so hyɛɛ wɔn bɔ sɛ, ɔrenyɛ wɔn bɔne biara.
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.
Yosef ankasa ne ne nuanom ne nʼagya abusuafo nyinaa tenaa Misraim asase so. Odii mfe ɔha ne du ansa na ɔrewu.
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.
Yosef huu Efraim mma nena ne Manase ba Makir mma nso. Wɔwoo wɔn guu ne srɛ so.
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.
Na, Yosef ka kyerɛɛ ne nuabarimanom no se, “Ɛrenkyɛ biara na mawu. Nanso Onyankopɔn bɛboa mo, ayi mo afi saa asase yi so, de mo akɔ bɔhyɛ asase a ɔkaa ho ntam sɛ ɔde bɛma Abraham, Isak ne Yakob no so.”
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.
Yosef maa Israel mmabarima no kaa ntam, na Yosef kae se, “Nokware, Onyankopɔn bedi aboa mo. Sɛ miwu nso a, monsoa me nnompe mfi ha nkɔ Kanaan asase so.”
26 And Joseph died, aged an hundred and ten years; and they prepared his corpse, and put him in a coffin in Egypt.
Yosef dii mfe ɔha ne du, na owui. Wɔhyɛɛ no akyenkyennuru de no too funnaka mu wɔ Misraim.
