Genesis 50
1 And Joseph falls on his father’s face, and weeps over him, and kisses him;
Yusuf merebahkan dirinya pada ayahnya sambil menangis dan mencium wajahnya.
2 and Joseph commands his servants, the physicians, to embalm his father, and the physicians embalm Israel;
Lalu Yusuf memerintahkan tukang pengawet mayat untuk merempah-rempahi jenazah Yakub.
3 and they fulfill for him forty days, for so they fulfill the days of the embalmed, and the Egyptians weep for him seventy days.
Pekerjaan itu memakan waktu empat puluh hari, yaitu waktu yang biasanya diperlukan untuk merempah-rempahi mayat. Orang Mesir berkabung bagi Yakub, tujuh puluh hari lamanya.
4 And the days of his weeping pass away, and Joseph speaks to the house of Pharaoh, saying, “Now if I have found grace in your eyes, please speak in the ears of Pharaoh, saying,
Setelah habis masa berkabung, berkatalah Yusuf kepada pegawai-pegawai raja, "Sampaikanlah pesan ini kepada raja,
5 My father caused me to swear, saying, Behold, I am dying; in my burying-place which I have prepared for myself in the land of Canaan, there you bury me; and now, please let me go up and bury my father, then I return”;
'Waktu ayah hamba sudah dekat ajalnya, disuruhnya hamba berjanji kepadanya, bahwa hamba akan menguburkan dia di dalam kuburan yang telah disiapkannya di tanah Kanaan. Sebab itu, izinkanlah hamba pergi untuk menguburkan ayah hamba. Setelah itu hamba akan kembali.'"
6 and Pharaoh says, “Go up and bury your father, as he caused you to swear.”
Lalu berkatalah raja, "Pergilah menguburkan ayahmu seperti yang telah kaujanjikan kepadanya."
7 And Joseph goes up to bury his father, and all [the] servants of Pharaoh go up with him, [the] elderly of his house, and all [the] elderly of the land of Egypt,
Lalu pergilah Yusuf untuk menguburkan ayahnya. Semua pegawai raja, para tua-tua istana dan semua pembesar Mesir, pergi bersama-sama dengan Yusuf.
8 and all the house of Joseph, and his brothers, and the house of his father; only their infants, and their flock, and their herd, have they left in the land of Goshen;
Keluarganya, saudara-saudaranya, dan sanak saudaranya yang lain pergi juga. Hanya anak-anak kecil dan ternak mereka ditinggalkan di daerah Gosyen.
9 and there go up with him both chariot and horsemen, and the camp is very great.
Pasukan yang berkereta dan berkuda juga ikut, sehingga iring-iringan itu panjang sekali.
10 And they come to the threshing-floor of Atad, which [is] beyond the Jordan, and they lament there, a lamentation great and very grievous; and he makes for his father a mourning seven days,
Ketika mereka sampai di tempat orang memukul gandum di Goren-Haatad, di sebelah timur Sungai Yordan, mereka meratap dengan sedih dan suara nyaring. Yusuf mengadakan upacara berkabung, tujuh hari lamanya.
11 and the inhabitant of the land, the Canaanite, sees the mourning in the threshing-floor of Atad and says, “A grievous mourning [is] this to the Egyptians”; therefore [one] has called its name “The mourning of the Egyptians,” which [is] beyond the Jordan.
Ketika penduduk Kanaan melihat perkabungan di Goren-Haatad itu, berkatalah mereka, "Alangkah pilunya upacara perkabungan orang Mesir itu!" Itulah sebabnya tempat itu dinamakan Abel-Mizraim.
12 And his sons do to him so as he commanded them,
Demikianlah anak-anak Yakub melakukan apa yang dipesankan Yakub kepada mereka.
13 and his sons carry him away to the land of Canaan, and bury him in the cave of the field of Machpelah, which Abraham bought with the field for a possession of a burying-place, from Ephron the Hittite, on the front of Mamre.
Mereka mengangkut jenazahnya ke Kanaan dan menguburkannya dalam gua Makhpela, di sebelah timur Mamre, di ladang yang telah dibeli oleh Abraham dari Efron orang Het itu, untuk dijadikan pekuburan.
14 And Joseph turns back to Egypt, he and his brothers, and all who are going up with him to bury his father, after his burying his father.
Setelah Yusuf menguburkan ayahnya, ia kembali ke Mesir bersama-sama dengan saudara-saudaranya dan semua orang yang mengikuti dia untuk penguburan ayahnya itu.
15 And the brothers of Joseph see that their father is dead, and say, “Perhaps Joseph hates us, and certainly returns to us all the evil which we did with him.”
Setelah ayah mereka meninggal, abang-abang Yusuf berkata, "Bagaimana seandainya Yusuf dendam dan mau membalas kejahatan kita dahulu?"
16 And they give a charge for Joseph, saying, “Your father commanded before his death, saying,
Sebab itu mereka mengirim pesan ini kepada Yusuf, "Sebelum ayah kita meninggal,
17 Thus you say to Joseph: Ah, now, please bear with the transgression of your brothers and their sin, for they have done you evil; and now, please bear with the transgression of the servants of the God of your father”; and Joseph weeps in their speaking to him.
ia menyuruh kami mengatakan kepadamu begini, 'Ampunilah kesalahan yang dahulu dilakukan abang-abangmu terhadapmu.' Jadi, sebagai hamba-hamba Allah yang dipuja ayah kita, kami mohon, ampunilah kesalahan yang telah kami lakukan." Yusuf menangis pada waktu menerima pesan itu.
18 And his brothers also go and fall before him, and say, “Behold, we [are] to you for servants.”
Lalu saudara-saudaranya itu sendiri datang dan sujud di hadapannya serta berkata, "Kami ini hambamu."
19 And Joseph says to them, “Do not fear, for [am] I in the place of God?
Tetapi Yusuf berkata kepada mereka, "Jangan takut; sebab saya tidak bisa bertindak sebagai Allah.
20 As for you, you devised evil against me, [but] God devised it for good, in order to do as [at] this day, to keep alive a numerous people;
Kalian telah bermupakat untuk berbuat jahat kepada saya, tetapi Allah mengubah kejahatan itu menjadi kebaikan, supaya dengan yang terjadi dahulu itu banyak orang yang hidup sekarang dapat diselamatkan.
21 and now, do not fear: I nourish you and your infants”; and he comforts them, and speaks to their heart.
Jangan khawatir. Saya akan mencukupi kebutuhan kalian dan anak-anak kalian." Demikianlah ia menentramkan hati mereka dengan kata-kata yang ramah, sehingga mereka terharu.
22 And Joseph dwells in Egypt, he and the house of his father, and Joseph lives one hundred and ten years,
Yusuf tetap tinggal di Mesir dengan sanak saudaranya; ia hidup sampai berumur seratus sepuluh tahun.
23 and Joseph looks on Ephraim’s sons of a third [generation]; sons also of Machir, son of Manasseh, have been born on the knees of Joseph.
Ia masih sempat melihat anak cucu Efraim. Ia sempat juga mengasuh anak-anak Makhir, yaitu cucu Manasye, sebagai anaknya sendiri.
24 And Joseph says to his brothers, “I am dying, and God certainly inspects you, and has caused you to go up from this land, to the land which He has sworn to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.”
Katanya kepada saudara-saudaranya, "Ajal saya sudah dekat, tetapi Allah pasti akan memelihara kalian dan memimpin kalian keluar dari negeri ini, ke negeri yang telah dijanjikan-Nya dengan sumpah kepada Abraham, Ishak dan Yakub."
25 And Joseph causes the sons of Israel to swear, saying, “God certainly inspects you, and you have brought up my bones from this [place].”
Lalu Yusuf menyuruh semua sanak saudaranya bersumpah, katanya, "Berjanjilah kepada saya, bahwa apabila Allah memimpin kalian ke negeri itu, kalian akan membawa juga jenazah saya."
26 And Joseph dies, a son of one hundred and ten years, and they embalm him, and he is put into a coffin in Egypt.
Kemudian meninggallah Yusuf di Mesir pada usia seratus sepuluh tahun. Mereka merempah-rempahi jenazahnya dan menaruhnya dalam peti mati.
