Genesis 50
1 Joseph leaned close to his father’s face and cried over him and kissed him.
Yousefe da ea adama ouga: nana sa: ili dinanu. E da ea ada odagi dinanuwane nonogosu.
2 Joseph commanded his servants who were morticians to (embalm his father’s body/put spices on his father’s body) to (preserve it/keep it from decaying), and then wrap it with strips of cloth.
Amalalu, Yousefe da hawa: hamosu dunu ilima amo ea ada da: i hodo, hedolo hame dasama: ne, gabusiga: manoma legema: ne sia: i.
3 So the morticians did that. It took 40 days to embalm Jacob’s body, because that is the amount of time that was always required for them to embalm a body. And the people of Egypt mourned for 70 days because of Jacob’s death.
Ilia hou defele, eso40amoga ilia da ea da: i hodo mae dasama: ne hahamoi. Idibidi dunu da eso 70 amoga Ya: igobema asigiba: le didigia: i.
4 When the time of mourning was finished, Joseph said to the king’s officials, “If you are pleased with me, please take this message to the king:
Didigia: su eso da dagoloba, Yousefe da Felou ea eagene ouligisu dunu ilima amane sia: i, “Amo sia: dili Felouma adosima,
5 ‘When my father was about to die, he told me to solemnly promise that I would bury his body in Canaan, in the tomb that he himself had prepared. So please let me go up to Canaan and bury my father’s body. Then I will return.’”
‘Na ada ea bogomu da gadenenoba, e da nama na da ea da: i hodo amo uli dogoi Ga: ina: ne soge ganodini hi hahamoi, amogai na da e uli dogoma: ne sia: i. Na da amo hamoma: ne ilegele sia: i dagoi. Amaiba: le, na da na ada uli dogomusa: asili, amalu bu sinidigimu da defeala: ?’”
6 After they gave the king the message, he replied, “Tell Joseph, ‘Go up and bury your father’s body, as you (swore/solemnly promised) that you would do.’”
Felou da bu adole i, “Defea! Dia sia: i defele, dia ada uli dogone salimusa: masa.”
7 So Joseph went [up to Canaan] to bury his father’s body. All of the king’s officials, all the king’s advisors, and all the elders in Egypt went with him.
Amalalu, Yousefe da ea ada uli dogomusa: asi. Felou ea eagene ouligisu dunu huluane, ea hina fi huluane, amola Idibidi asigilai bagade dunu huluane, ilia da Yousefe sigi asi.
8 His own family’s small children and their sheep and goats and their cattle stayed in the Goshen region. But all the rest of Joseph’s family and his [older] brothers [and younger brother] and his father’s family went with him.
Yousefe ea fi huluane, yolalali amola ea ada fi huluane da Yousefe sigi asi. Ilia mano fonobahadi, ilia sibi, goudi amola bulamagau, amo fawane da Gousiene sogega ouesalu.
9 Men riding in chariots [MTY] and on horses also went along. It was a huge group.
Dunu eno da ‘sa: liode’ fila heda: le, Yousefe sigi asi, amola eno da hosi fila heda: le asi. Gilisisu da bagadedafa ba: i.
10 They went to the east side of the Jordan [River] and arrived at Atad. There was a place there where people (threshed/beat the grain to separate the wheat from the chaff.) There they mourned loudly for Jacob for a long time. Joseph performed mourning ceremonies for his father for seven days.
Ilia da gala: ine dadabisu soge (amoga ilia da widi amola bali gisi fabeba: le fage lasu) amo A: ida: de (Yodane Hano amoga gusudili diala) amoga doaga: loba, ilia da mae fisili didigia: lalu. Eso fesuale, Yousefe da didigia: su gilisisu hou ouligi.
11 When the Canaan people-group who lived there saw them mourning like that, they said, “This is a sad mourning place for the people of Egypt!” So they named the place Abel-Mizraim, [which sounds like the Hebrew words that mean ‘mourning of the Egyptians].’
Ga: ina: ne fi dunu da amo didigia: su hou A: ida: de sogebi ganodini hamonanebe ba: loba, ilia da amane sia: i, “Idibidi dunu da da: i dione didigia: su bagade hamonanebe goea.” Amaiba: le, ilia da amo sogebi amoma dio asuli amo A: ibele Misala: ime. (Idibidi didigia: su)
12 Then Jacob’s sons did for him what their father had commanded.
Amalalu, Ya: igobe egefelali da ea hamoma: ne sia: i defele hamoi dagoi.
13 They [crossed the Jordan River and] carried Jacob’s body to Canaan. They buried it in the cave in the field at Machpelah, east of Mamre [town]. That was the field that Abraham had bought from Ephron, who was one of the Heth people-group, to use as a burial place.
Ilia da ea da: i hodo gaguli asili, Ma: gafila gele gelabo (Ma: melei moilaiga gusudili ifabi, amo A: ibalaha: me da ea fi uli dogomusa: amo Ifalone Hidaide dunuma bidilai) amo ganodini uli dogoi.
14 After he had buried his father, Joseph and his [older] brothers [and younger brother] and all the others who had gone up to Canaan with him for the funeral returned to Egypt.
Yousefe da ea ada uli dogolalu, e amola yolalali amola dunu huluane da ea ada uli dogomusa: Yousefe sigi asi, amo huluane da Idibidi sogega buhagi.
15 After Jacob died, Joseph’s brothers became worried. They realized what might happen. They said, “Suppose Joseph hates us and tries to get revenge for all the evil things that we did to him many years ago?”
Ilia ada bogosu amo fa: no, Yousefe yolalali ili amane sia: i, “Yousefe da ninima higasala: ? Ninia da ema se bagade iasu. E da ninima dabe ima: bela: ?”
16 So they sent someone to tell this to Joseph for them: “Before our father died, he told us this:
Amaiba: le, ilia da sia: adole iasu dunu amoga Yousefema amane adosi, “Ninia ada mae bogole,
17 ‘Say to Joseph, “Please forgive your [older] brothers for the evil thing that they did to you, for their terrible sin against you, because what they did to you was very wrong.”’ So now we, who are servants of your father’s God, ask you, please forgive us for what we did to you.” But Joseph just cried when he received their message.
e da ninima nini da dima amane adole ba: ma: ne sia: i, ‘Diolalali ilia da dima wadela: le bagade hamoi. Be wali na da dima edegesa. Dia ili wadela: i hou gogolema: ne olofoma.’ Ninia da nini ada ea Gode hawa: hamosu dunu esala. Amaiba: le, dia nini wadela: i hou gogolema: ne olofoma.” Amo sia: adosi Yousefe da nababeba: le, bagadewane dinanu.
18 Then his [older] brothers themselves came and threw themselves on the ground in front of Joseph, and one of them said, “Please listen. We will just be your servants.”
Amalalu, yolalali ilisu da ema misini, ema beguduli amane sia: i, “Ninia da dia hawa: hamosu dunu esalebe wea.”
19 But Joseph replied to them, “Do not be afraid! [God is the one who punishes people]; (am I God?/I am not God!) [RHQ]
Be Yousefe da bu adole i, “Mae beda: ma! Na da Gode Ea sogebi lamu da hamedei galebe.
20 As for you, yes, you wanted to do something very evil to me. But God caused something good to come from it! He wanted to save many people from dying of hunger, and that is what happened! Today they are alive!
Dilia da nama wadela: le hamomusa: dawa: i. Be Gode da amo hou afadenene, bu hou ida: iwane hamosu. Bai E da dunu bagohame waha esalu amo ilia esalusu gaga: musa: dawa: i galu.
21 So I say [again], do not be afraid! I will make sure that you and your children have enough to eat.” In that way he reassured them and made made them feel much better.
Dilima beda: ma: ne liligi da hamedafa gala. Na da dili amola dilia mano asigiwane ouligimu.” Amaiba: le, ilia da ea asigi sia: nabalu, ilia dogo da bu denesi dagoi ba: i.
22 Joseph lived with his father’s family in Egypt until he was 110 years old.
Yousefe amola ea ada fi da Idibidi soge ganodini esalalalu, e da lalelegele, ode 110 esalu bogoi.
23 He lived long enough to see Ephraim’s children and grandchildren. The children of Joseph’s grandson Machir, who was Manasseh’s son, were born before Joseph died, and were adopted by Joseph to be his own children [IDM].
Ea esalusu ganodini, e da Ifala: ime ea mano amola ea aowa ba: i dagoi. E da Ma: na: se ea mano Ma: igili, amo ea mano yosia: i.
24 One day Joseph said to his [older] brothers, “I am about to die. But God will certainly (help/take care of) you. And [some day] he will lead your [descendants] up out of this land and take them to Canaan, the land that he solemnly promised to give to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.”
E da yolalalima amane sia: i, “Na da gadenene bogomu galebe. Be mae beda: ma. Gode da dili noga: le ouligimu. E da dili amo sogega fisili masa: ne gadili oule asili amola soge amo E da A: ibalaha: me, Aisage amola Ya: igobe ilima ima: ne dafawane ilegele sia: i, E da amo soge dilima imunu.”
25 Then Joseph said, “When God enables you to do that, you must take my body back to Canaan.” He made his older brothers solemnly promise to do that.
Amalalu, Yousefe da ea fi dunuma amane sia: i, “Dilia dafawanedafa amane ilegele sia: ma, amane, Gode da dilia amo sogega oule ahoasea, dilia na da: i hodo amoga gaguli masa: ne sia: ma.”
26 So Joseph died in Egypt when he was 110 years old. His body was embalmed and put in a coffin there.
Amalalu, Yousefe da Idibidi soge ganodini bogoi dagoi. E lalelegele, ode 110 defele gidigili, bogoi. Amalalu, ilia da ea da: i hodo mae dasama: ne manoma legelalu, bogoi gagili ganodini sali. Sia: Ama Dagoi
