Genesis 50
1 Joseph leaned close to his father’s face and cried over him and kissed him.
Pagkatapos niyakap ni Jose ang mukha ng kaniyang ama, nagdalamhati siya at hinalikan niya siya.
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.
Inutusan ni Jose ang kanyang mga lingkod na manggagamot na embalsamuhin ang kanyang ama. Kaya inembalsamo ng mga manggagamot si Israel.
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.
Ginawa nila ito ng apatnapung araw, dahil iyon ang ganap na panahon ng pag-eembalsamo. Umiyak ang mga taga-Ehipto ng pitumpung araw.
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:
Nang matapos ang mga araw ng pag-iyak, nakipag-usap si Jose sa hukuman ng Paraon at sinabing, “Kung ngayon may nahanap akong pabor sa iyong mga mata, pakiusap, kausapin mo si Paraon, sabihing,
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.’”
'Pinanumpa ako sa aking ama, sinabing, “Tingnan mo, malapit na akong mamatay, Ilibing mo ako sa aking libingan na hinukay ko doon sa lupain ng Canaan. Doon mo ako ilibing.” Ngayon hayaan ninyo akong umakyat at ilibing ang aking ama, at pagkatapos ay babalik din ako.”
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.’”
Sumagot ang Paraon, “Lumakad ka at ilibing ang iyong ama, tulad ng ipinanumpa niya sa iyo.”
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.
Umakyat si Jose para ilibing ang kanyang ama. Kasama niyang umakyat ang lahat ng mga opisyal ng Paraon, ang mga tagapayo sa kanyang sambahayan, at ang lahat ng mga nakakatandang opisyal sa lupain ng Ehipto,
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.
kasama lahat ng sambahayan ni Jose at kanyang mga kapatid, at sambahayan ng kanyang ama. Pero iniwan nila ang mga bata, kanilang mga kawan, at ang kanilang mga kalipunan, sa lupain ng Gosen.
9 Men riding in chariots [MTY] and on horses also went along. It was a huge group.
Pumunta kasama niya ang mga karwahe at mga mangangabayo. Ito ay isang napakalaking pulutong ng tao.
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.
Nang sila ay dumating sa giikan ni Atad na nasa kabilang dako ng Jordan, sila ay nagluksa ng napakatindi at napakalungkot na pagdadalamhati. Doon si Jose ay nagluksa ng pitong araw para sa kanyang ama.
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].’
Nang nakita ng mga nananahan sa lupaing yaon, ng mga Cananeo, ang pagluluksa sa giikan ni Atad, kanilang sinabi, “Ito ay isang napakalungkot na pagluluksa ng mga Ehipto.” Kaya ang pangalang itinawag sa lugar na iyon ay Abel-Mizraim, na nasa kabilang dako ng Jordan.
12 Then Jacob’s sons did for him what their father had commanded.
Kaya ginawa ng kanyang mga anak kay Jacob ang ayon sa inihabilin niya sa kanila.
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.
Dinala siya ng kanyang mga anak sa lupain ng Canaan at inilibing siya sa kuweba sa bukid ng Macpela, malapit sa Mamre. Binili ni Abraham ang kuweba na may bukid para maging lugar na paglilibingan. Binili niya ito kay Ephron na Hetheo.
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.
Matapos niyang ilibing ang kanyang ama, bumalik si Jose patungong Ehipto, siya, kasama ang kanyang mga kapatid na lalaki, siya, at lahat ng sumama sa kaniya sa paglilibing sa kanyang ama.
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?”
Nang nakita ng mga kapatid na lalaki ni Jose na ang kanilang ama ay patay na, sinabi nila, “Paano kung si Jose ay may dinadala pang sama ng loob at nais niyang pagbayarin tayo ng buo para sa lahat ng kasamaan na ginawa natin sa kanya?”
16 So they sent someone to tell this to Joseph for them: “Before our father died, he told us this:
Kaya nagpadala sila ng mensahe kay Jose, na nagsasabing, “Nagbigay ng mga tagubilin ang iyong ama bago siya mamatay, na nagsasabing.
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.
'Ganito ang sabihin ninyo kay Jose, “Pakiusap patawarin mo ang kasalanan ng iyong mga kapatid at ang kamalian na kanilang nagawa nang pinagmalupitan ka nila.” Ngayon pakiusap patawarin mo ang mga lingkod ng Diyos ng iyong ama. Si Jose ay umiyak nang dinala ang mensahe sa kanila.
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.”
Nagpunta rin ang kanyang mga kapatid na lalaki at nagpatirapa sa harap niya. Sinabi nila, “Tingnan mo, kami ay iyong mga lingkod.”
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]
Pero sinagot sila ni Jose, “Huwag kayong matakot. Nasa lugar ba ako ng Diyos?
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!
At para sa inyo, ninais niyo na ipahamak ako, pero ninais ng Diyos ito para sa kabutihan, para pag-ingatan ang buhay ng maraming tao, gaya ng nakikita ninyo ngayon.
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.
Kaya ngayon huwag kayong matakot. Paglalaanan ko kayo at ang inyong mga anak.” Inaliw niya sila sa paraang ito at nakipag-usap ng may kagandahang-loob sa kanila.
22 Joseph lived with his father’s family in Egypt until he was 110 years old.
Nanirahan si Jose sa Ehipto, kasama ng sambahayan ng kanyang ama. Nabuhay siya ng isandaan at sampung taon.
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].
Nakita ni Jose ang mga anak ni Efraim hanggang sa ikatlong salinlahi. Nakita niya rin ang mga anak ni Makir na anak ni Manases. Sila ay “ipinanganak sa kanyang mga tuhod.”
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.”
Sinabi ni Jose sa kanyang mga kapatid, “Malapit na akong mamatay; pero tiyak na pupuntahan kayo ng Diyos at pangungunahan kayo palabas ng lupaing ito papunta sa lupain na kanyang ipinangakong ibibigay kay Abraham, kay Isaac at kay Jacob.”
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.
Pagkatapos ipinasumpa ni Jose ang mga anak ni Israel. Sinabi niya, “Tiyak na pupuntahan kayo ng Diyos. Sa panahong iyon kailangan ninyong dalhin ang aking mga buto mula rito.”
26 So Joseph died in Egypt when he was 110 years old. His body was embalmed and put in a coffin there.
Kaya namatay si Jose sa gulang na isandaan at sampung taon. Pagkatapos siyang embalsamuhin, siya ay inilagay nila sa isang kabaong sa Ehipto.
