Genesis 47
1 And he went Joseph and he told to Pharaoh and he said father my and brothers my and flock[s] their and herd[s] their and all that [belongs] to them they have come from [the] land of Canaan and there they [are] in [the] land of Goshen.
Lalu Yusuf pergi menghadap raja Mesir dan melaporkan, “Baginda, ayah saya dan semua saudara saya sudah tiba dari Kanaan. Mereka membawa kawanan ternak dan segala harta benda mereka. Sekarang mereka sudah sampai di Gosyen.”
2 And from [the] end of brothers his he took five men and he presented them before Pharaoh.
Yusuf juga membawa lima orang kakaknya menghadap raja.
3 And he said Pharaoh to brothers his what? [are] work your and they said to Pharaoh [are] herder[s] of sheep servants your both we as well as fathers our.
Kemudian raja bertanya, “Apa mata pencaharian kalian?” Jawab mereka, “Kami gembala ternak turun temurun, sejak zaman nenek moyang kami.
4 And they said to Pharaoh to sojourn in the land we have come for there not [is] pasture for the sheep which [belongs] to servants your for [was] heavy the famine in [the] land of Canaan and therefore let them dwell please servants your in [the] land of Goshen.
Negeri Kanaan sedang dilanda kekeringan. Kami kesulitan menggembalakan kawanan ternak. Karena itu, bila Baginda berkenan, kami mohon agar diizinkan menggembalakan kawanan ternak kami di Gosyen dan menetap untuk sementara waktu di situ.”
5 And he said Pharaoh to Joseph saying father your and brothers your they have come to you.
Raja berkata kepada Yusuf, “Ayahmu dan saudara-saudaramu sudah datang kepadamu.
6 [the] land of Egypt [is] before you it in [the] best of the land cause to dwell father your and brothers your let them dwell in [the] land of Goshen and if you know and there among them [are] men of ability and you will appoint them overseers of livestock over [that] which [belongs] to me.
Negeri Mesir terbuka bagimu. Gosyen adalah wilayah terbaik di negeri ini. Biarkanlah ayah dan saudara-saudaramu menetap di situ. Bila ada di antara mereka yang mahir menggembala, pekerjakanlah mereka untuk mengurus ternakku.”
7 And he brought Joseph Jacob father his and he made stand him before Pharaoh and he blessed Jacob Pharaoh.
Lalu Yusuf mengajak ayahnya menghadap raja, dan Yakub memberkati raja.
8 And he said Pharaoh to Jacob how many? [are] [the] days of [the] years of life your.
Tanya raja kepada Yakub, “Berapakah usiamu?”
9 And he said Jacob to Pharaoh [the] days of [the] years of sojournings my [are] thirty and one hundred year[s] few and displeasing they have been [the] days of [the] years of life my and not they have reached [the] days of [the] years of [the] lives of ancestors my in [the] days of sojournings their.
Jawab Yakub, “Hambamu ini sudah menjalani hidup yang penuh kesusahan sebagai pengembara selama seratus tiga puluh tahun. Itu sangat singkat dibandingkan usia nenek moyang saya dalam pengembaraan mereka.”
10 And he blessed Jacob Pharaoh and he went out from to before Pharaoh.
Sebelum pamit, Yakub mengucapkan berkat perpisahan kepada raja.
11 And he caused to dwell Joseph father his and brothers his and he gave to them a possession in [the] land of Egypt in [the] best of the land in [the] land of Rameses just as he had commanded Pharaoh.
Sesudah itu Yusuf membantu ayah dan saudara-saudaranya untuk menetap di tanah terbaik di Mesir, di daerah Rameses, sesuai perintah raja.
12 And he provided for Joseph father his and brothers his and all [the] household of father his food to [the] mouth of the little one[s].
Yusuf memberikan bahan makanan yang cukup untuk ayahnya, saudara-saudaranya, serta seluruh sanak saudara mereka menurut jumlah kebutuhan masing-masing keluarga.
13 And [was] food there not in all the land for [was] heavy the famine very and it languished [the] land of Egypt and [the] land of Canaan because of the famine.
Bencana kelaparan semakin memburuk. Di mana-mana tidak ada makanan, sehingga seluruh penduduk Mesir dan Kanaan menderita karena kelaparan dahsyat itu.
14 And he gathered up Joseph all the money which was found in [the] land of Egypt and in [the] land of Canaan for the grain which they [were] buying grain and he brought Joseph the money [the] house of towards Pharaoh.
Orang-orang Mesir dan Kanaan membeli bahan makanan dari Yusuf hingga semua uang mereka masuk ke kas Yusuf. Lalu dia menyerahkan uang itu kepada raja.
15 And it was finished the money from [the] land of Egypt and from [the] land of Canaan and they came all Egypt to Joseph saying give! to us food and why? will we die before you for it has come to an end money.
Ketika seluruh uang warga Mesir maupun Kanaan terpakai habis, orang-orang Mesir mendatangi Yusuf dan berkata, “Berilah kami makanan. Uang kami sudah habis. Haruskah kami mati kelaparan di hadapanmu?”
16 And he said Joseph give livestock your so let me give [it] to you for livestock your if it has come to an end money.
Yusuf menjawab, “Kalau kalian sudah tidak punya uang lagi, berikanlah ternak kalian sebagai pembayaran.”
17 And they brought livestock their to Joseph and he gave to them Joseph food for the horses and for [the] livestock of the flock[s] and for [the] livestock of the herd[s] and for the donkeys and he refreshed them with food for all livestock their in the year that.
Maka mereka membawa hewan ternak kepada Yusuf untuk ditukar dengan bahan makanan. Ada yang membawa kuda, keledai, sapi, kambing, ataupun domba. Yusuf pun memberi mereka bahan makanan sebagai gantinya. Hal ini terjadi sepanjang tahun itu.
18 And it was finished the year that and they came to him in the year second and they said to him not we will hide from lord my that except it has been finished the money and [the] livestock of the cattle [is] to lord my not it is left before lord my except body our and land our.
Pada tahun berikutnya, rakyat kembali menghadap Yusuf dan berkata, “Kami tidak dapat menyembunyikan dari Tuan bahwa uang kami sudah habis, dan semua hewan kami juga sudah menjadi milik Tuan. Tidak ada lagi yang dapat kami jual untuk makanan, kecuali tanah kami. Atau kami terpaksa menjual diri kami sebagai budak!
19 Why? will we die to eyes your both we as well as land our buy us and land our for food so we may be we and land our slaves of Pharaoh and give seed so we may live and not we will die and the land not it will be desolate.
Apakah kami harus binasa di hadapanmu, dan tanah kami menjadi tandus?! Ambillah kami dan tanah kami sebagai pembayaran bahan makanan, karena kami sudah tidak punya apa-apa lagi. Biarlah kami menjadi budak raja dan tanah kami menjadi miliknya! Berilah kami benih untuk ditanam, agar kami tetap bertahan hidup dan tidak binasa, dan agar tanah kami tidak menjadi tandus!”
20 And he bought Joseph all [the] land of Egypt to Pharaoh for they sold Egypt everyone field his for it was severe on them the famine and it be[longed] the land to Pharaoh.
Maka Yusuf membeli semua tanah di Mesir untuk raja. Para pemilik ladang terpaksa menjual ladang mereka karena bencana kelaparan begitu hebat. Semua ladang pun menjadi milik raja Mesir.
21 And the people he brought in it to the cities from [the] end of [the] territory of Egypt and to end its.
Lalu seluruh rakyat— dari ujung perbatasan Mesir sampai ke ujung perbatasan yang lain— dijadikan budak.
22 Only [the] land of the priests not he bought for an allowance [belonged] to the priests from with Pharaoh and they eat allowance their which he gave to them Pharaoh there-fore not they sold land their.
Hanya tanah milik para imam Mesir yang tidak dibeli Yusuf, karena mereka menerima jatah makanan dari raja sehingga tidak perlu menjual tanah mereka.
23 And he said Joseph to the people here! I have bought you this day and land your for Pharaoh here! for you [is] seed and you will sow the land.
Yusuf berkata kepada rakyatnya, “Perhatikanlah, saya sudah membeli kalian dan ladang kalian untuk raja, maka tanamlah benih-benih ini.
24 And it will be at the harvest and you will give a fifth to Pharaoh and [the] four the hands it will be[long] to you to [the] seed of the field and to food your and for [those] who [are] in households your and to eat for little one[s] your.
Pada waktu panen nanti, kalian wajib memberikan dua puluh persen kepada raja. Yang delapan puluh persen adalah milikmu untuk dijadikan benih dan untuk bahan makanan bagi anak-anakmu dan semua yang tinggal di rumahmu.”
25 And they said you have preserved alive us may we find favor in [the] eyes of lord my and we will be slaves of Pharaoh.
Rakyat menjawab, “Tuan sudah menyelamatkan nyawa kami! Biarlah kami berkenan di hadapan Tuan. Kami akan menjadi budak raja.”
26 And he established it Joseph to a statute until the day this on [the] land of Egypt [belongs] to Pharaoh to the fifth part only [the] land of the priests to alone them not it belonged to Pharaoh.
Yusuf menjadikan ketetapan itu sebagai undang-undang yang masih berlaku di Mesir hingga kitab ini ditulis, yaitu dua puluh persen dari semua hasil panen adalah milik raja. Hanya tanah para imam yang tidak menjadi milik raja.
27 And he dwelt Israel in [the] land of Egypt in [the] land of Goshen and they had possessions in it and they were fruitful and they multiplied exceedingly.
Orang-orang Israel menetap di wilayah Gosyen. Mereka memiliki tanah di sana dan hidup mereka berhasil. Jumlah mereka semakin bertambah.
28 And he lived Jacob in [the] land of Egypt seven-teen year[s] and it was [the] days of Jacob [the] years of life his seven years and forty and one hundred year[s].
Yakub tinggal di Mesir selama tujuh belas tahun, sampai umurnya mencapai 147 tahun.
29 And they drew near [the] days of Israel to die and he summoned - son his Joseph and he said to him if please I have found favor in view your put please hand your under thigh my and you will do with me loyalty and faithfulness may not please you bury me in Egypt.
Ketika Yakub sudah hampir mati, dia memanggil Yusuf dan berkata, “Kalau kamu benar-benar mengasihi aku, letakkan tanganmu di antara pangkal pahaku untuk menunjukkan kesetiaanmu memegang janji bahwa kamu tidak akan menguburkan aku di Mesir.
30 And I will lie down with ancestors my and you will carry me from Egypt and you will bury me in grave their and he said I I will do according to word your.
Aku ingin dikubur bersama nenek moyangku. Sesudah aku mati, bawalah aku keluar dari Mesir dan kuburkanlah aku bersama mereka.” Jawab Yusuf, “Aku akan melaksanakan permintaan Ayah.”
31 And he said swear an oath! to me and he swore an oath to him and he bowed down Israel on [the] head of the bed.
Kata Yakub, “Bersumpahlah bahwa kamu akan melakukannya.” Maka Yusuf pun bersumpah. Lalu Yakub bersujud di tempat tidur, pada bagian di mana dia biasa meletakkan kepalanya, dan mengucap syukur kepada TUHAN.
