Genesis 50
1 Then Joseph hugged his father's face, and wept over him, and kissed him.
Jožef je padel na očetov obraz, jokal na njem in ga poljubil.
2 Joseph commanded his servants the physicians to embalm his father. So the physicians embalmed Israel.
Jožef je zapovedal svojim služabnikom zdravnikom, naj balzamirajo njegovega očeta in zdravniki so balzamirali Izraela.
3 Forty days were required for it, for that is how many the days it takes for embalming. The Egyptians mourned for him for seventy days.
Štirideset dni je bilo izpolnjeno zanj, kajti tako so izpolnjeni dnevi tistih, ki so balzamirani in Egipčani so žalovali za njim sedemdeset dni.
4 When the days for mourning for him had passed, Joseph spoke to the house of Pharaoh, saying, "If now I have found favor in your sight, please speak in the ears of Pharaoh, saying,
Ko so dnevi njegovega žalovanja minili, je Jožef govoril faraonovi hiši, rekoč: »Če sem torej našel milost v vaših očeh, govorite, prosim vas, na faraonova ušesa, rekoč:
5 'My father made me take an oath, saying, "Look, I am dying. Bury me in the tomb that I dug for myself in the land of Canaan." Now therefore, please let me go up and bury my father, and I will return again.'"
›Moj oče me je zaprisegel, rekoč: ›Glej, jaz umrem. V mojem grobu, ki sem si ga izkopal v kánaanski deželi, tam me boš pokopal.‹ Zato me torej pusti iti gor, prosim te in pokopljem svojega očeta in bom ponovno prišel.‹«
6 And Pharaoh said, "Go up, and bury your father, in keeping with your oath."
Faraon je rekel: »Pojdi gor in pokoplji svojega očeta, kakor te je zaprisegel.«
7 So Joseph went up to bury his father, and all the officials of Pharaoh went up with him, the elders of his household, and all the elders of the land of Egypt,
Jožef je odšel gor, da pokoplje svojega očeta in z njim so odšli gor vsi faraonovi služabniki, starešine njegove hiše, vse starešine egiptovske dežele,
8 all the household of Joseph, his brothers, and his father's household. Only their little ones, and their flocks, and their herds, they left in the land of Goshen.
vsa Jožefova hiša, njegovi bratje in hiša njegovega očeta. Samo svoje malčke, svoje trope in svoje črede so pustili v gošenski deželi.
9 And there went up with him both chariots and horsemen. It was a very large company.
Z njim so odšli gor tako bojni vozovi kakor konjeniki in to je bila zelo velika skupina.
10 Then they came to the threshing floor of Atad which is across the Jordan, and they mourned there with a great and very bitter lamentation. And he observed seven days of mourning for his father.
Prišli so k mlatišču Atádu, ki je onstran Jordana in tam so žalovali z velikim in zelo bolečim objokovanjem in za svojega očeta je pripravil sedemdnevno žalovanje.
11 When the inhabitants of the land, the Canaanites, saw the mourning at the threshing floor of Atad, they said, "This is a deep mourning by the Egyptians." Therefore, its name was called Abel Mizraim, which is across the Jordan.
Ko so prebivalci dežele, Kánaanci, videli žalovanje na Atádovih tleh, so rekli: »To objokovanje je Egipčanom boleče.« Torej je bilo ime le-tega imenovano Abél Micrájim, ki je onkraj Jordana.
12 So his sons did to him just as he commanded them,
Njegovi sinovi so mu storili glede na to, kakor jim je zapovedal,
13 for his sons carried him into the land of Canaan and buried him in the cave of the field of Machpelah near Mamre, which Abraham bought along with the field as a burial site from Ephron the Hethite.
kajti njegovi sinovi so ga odnesli v kánaansko deželo in ga pokopali v votlini polja Mahpéle, ki ga je Abraham kupil s poljem za grobno posest od Hetejca Efróna, pred Mamrejem.
14 Then after he had buried his father, Joseph returned to Egypt, he and his brothers and all that went up with him to bury his father.
Potem ko je pokopal svojega očeta, se je Jožef vrnil v Egipt, on in njegovi bratje in vsi, ki so z njim odšli gor, da pokopljejo njegovega očeta.
15 When Joseph's brothers saw that their father was dead, they said, "It may be that Joseph will hate us, and will pay us back in full for all of the evil that we did to him."
Ko so Jožefovi bratje videli, da je bil njihov oče mrtev, so rekli: »Jožef nas bo morda sovražil in nam bo zagotovo poplačal vse zlo, ki smo mu ga storili.«
16 So they sent a message to Joseph, saying, "Your father gave this command before he died, saying,
K Jožefu so poslali poslanca, rekoč: »Tvoj oče je dal zapoved, preden je umrl, rekoč:
17 Thus you are to tell Joseph, "Now please forgive the transgression of your brothers and their sin, because they did evil to you."' And now, please forgive the transgression of the servants of the God of your father." And Joseph wept when they spoke to him.
›Tako boste rekli Jožefu: ›Odpusti, prosim te sedaj, prekršek svojih bratov in njihov greh, kajti storili so ti zlo in sedaj, prosimo te, odpusti prekršek služabnikom Boga svojega očeta.‹« In Jožef je jokal, ko so mu govorili.
18 Then his brothers also went and fell down in front of him, and they said, "Look, we are your slaves."
Tudi njegovi bratje so padli dol pred njegovim obličjem in rekli: »Glej, mi smo tvoji služabniki.«
19 But Joseph said to them, "Do not be afraid, for am I in the place of God?
Jožef jim je rekel: »Ne bojte se, kajti ali sem jaz na mestu Boga?
20 As for you, you meant evil against me, but God turned it into good in order to bring about this present result, to save the lives of many people.
Toda kar se tiče vas, ste zoper mene mislili zlo, toda Bog je to preobrnil v dobro, da izvrši, kakor je to današnji dan, da veliko ljudi reši živih.
21 So therefore, do not be afraid. I will provide for you and your little ones." And he consoled them and spoke kindly to them.
Zdaj se torej ne bojte, hranil bom vas in vaše malčke.« Potolažil jih je in prijazno govoril z njimi.
22 So Joseph lived in Egypt, he, and his father's household. And Joseph lived one hundred ten years.
Jožef je prebival v Egiptu, on in hiša njegovega očeta in Jožef je živel sto deset let.
23 Joseph saw Ephraim's descendants to the third generation. The children also of Makir, the son of Manasseh, were counted as Joseph's own.
Jožef je videl Efrájimove otroke tretjega rodu. Tudi otroci Mahírja, Manásejevega sina, so bili vzgojeni na Jožefovih kolenih.
24 And Joseph said to his brothers, "I am about to die, but God will surely take care of you and bring you up out of this land to the land which he promised to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob."
Jožef je rekel svojim bratom: »Jaz umiram, Gospod pa vas bo zagotovo obiskal in vas privedel ven iz te dežele, v deželo, ki jo je prisegel Abrahamu, Izaku in Jakobu.«
25 Then Joseph made the sons of Israel take an oath, saying, "God will surely take care of you. Then you must carry up my bones from here."
Jožef je Izraelove otroke zaprisegel, rekoč: »Bog vas bo zagotovo obiskal in vi boste moje kosti odnesli od tod.«
26 So Joseph died, being one hundred ten years old, and they embalmed him and placed him in a coffin in Egypt.
Tako je Jožef umrl, star sto deset let in balzamirali so ga in položen je bil v krsto v Egiptu.
