< Genesis 47 >

1 Then Joseph came and told Pharaoh, and said, My father and my brethren, and their flocks, and their herds, and all that they have, have come from the land of Canaan; and behold, they [are] in the land of Goshen.
HELE ae la o Iosepa, hai aku la ia Parao, i aku la, Ua hiki mai nei ko'u makuakane a me ko'u poe hanauna, a me ka lakou hipa, a me ka lakou holoholona, a me ka lakou mea a pau, mai ka aina mai o Kanaana, aia hoi lakou ma ka aina, i Gosena.
2 And he took some of his brethren, [even] five men, and presented them to Pharaoh.
Lawe ae la ia i elima o kona poe hanauna, hoonoho iho la ia lakou imua o Parao.
3 And Pharaoh said to his brethren, What [is] your occupation? And they said to Pharaoh, Thy servants [are] shepherds, both we, [and] also our fathers.
Olelo mai la o Parao i na hoahanau o Iosepa, Heaha ka oukou oihana? I mai la lakou ia Parao, He poe kahuhipa kau poe kauwa nei, o makou a me ko makou poe makua.
4 They said moreover to Pharaoh, We have come to sojourn in the land: for thy servants have no pasture for their flocks, for the famine [is] severe in the land of Canaan: now therefore, we pray thee, let thy servants dwell in the land of Goshen.
I hou mai la lakou ia Parao, Ua hele mai nei makou e noho ma keia aina, no ka mea, aole ai na ka poe holoholona a kau poe kauwa, no ka nui o ka wi ma ka aina o Kanaana. No ia mea, ke noi aku nei makou ia oe, e noho makou ma ka aina i Gosena.
5 And Pharaoh spoke to Joseph, saying, Thy father and thy brethren have come to thee:
A olelo mai la o Parao ia Iosepa, i mai la, Ua hiki mai iou la kou makuakane a me na hoahanau ou.
6 The land of Egypt [is] before thee; in the best of the land make thy father and brethren to dwell; in the land of Goshen let them dwell; and if thou knowest [any] men of activity among them, then make them rulers over my cattle.
O ka aina o Aigupita, eia no ia imua ou: i ka aina maikai nui, e hoonoho ai oe i kou makuakane a me na hoahanau ou: e noho iho lakou i ka aina o Gosena. A ina i ike oe i na kanaka akamai o lakou, e hoonoho oe ia lakou i mau kahu no ka'u poe holoholona,
7 And Joseph brought in Jacob his father, and set him before Pharaoh: and Jacob blessed Pharaoh.
Alakai mai la o Iosepa ia Iakoba i kona makuakane, a hoonoho mai la ia ia imua o Parao. Hoomaikai aku la o Iakoba ia Parao.
8 And Pharaoh said to Jacob, How old [art] thou?
Ninau mai la o Parao ia Iakoba, Ehia la na makahiki o kou ola ana?
9 And Jacob said to Pharaoh, The days of the years of my pilgrimage [are] a hundred and thirty years: few and evil have been the days of the years of my life, nor have they attained to the days of the years of the life of my fathers in the days of their pilgrimage.
I aku la o Iakoba ia Parao, O na la o ko'u mau makahiki i noho malihini ai, hookahi ia haneri makahiki a me kanakolu. He hapa a he ino hoi na la o ko'u mau makahiki e ola nei; aole nae i loaa ia'u na la a me na makahiki o ko'u poe kupuna i ko lakou noho malihini ana.
10 And Jacob blessed Pharaoh, and went out from before Pharaoh.
Hoomaikai aku la o Iakoba ia Parao, a hele aku la mai ke alo aku o Parao.
11 And Joseph placed his father and his brethren, and gave them a possession in the land of Egypt, in the best of the land, in the land of Rameses, as Pharaoh had commanded.
Hoonoho iho la o Iosepa i kona makuakane a me kona poe hoahanau, a haawi aku la oia ia lakou i wahi e noho ai ma ka aina o Aigupita, i kahi aina maikai, i ka aina o Ramese, e like me ke kanoha ana mai a Parao.
12 And Joseph nourished his father, and his brethren, and all his father's household, with bread according to [their] families.
Malama aku la o Iosepa i kona makuakane, a me kona poe hoahanau, a me ka ohana a kona makuakane a pau i ka ai, e like me na waha o ka ohana.
13 And [there was] no bread in all the land; for the famine [was] very distressing, so that the land of Egypt, and [all] the land of Canaan, fainted by reason of the famine.
Aole ai ma ka aina a pau, no ka mea, ua hanahana loa ka wi. Oki loa iho la ka aina o Aigupita a me ka aina o Kanaana i ka wi.
14 And Joseph gathered all the money that was found in the land of Egypt, and in the land of Canaan, for the corn which they bought: and Joseph brought the money into Pharaoh's house.
Hooiliili iho la o Iosepa i ke kala a pau loa ma ka aina o Aigupita, a ma ka aina o Kanaana, no ka ai a lakou i kuai ai; a lawe mai la o Iosepa i ke kala iloko o ka hale o Parao.
15 And when money failed in the land of Egypt, and in the land of Canaan, all the Egyptians came to Joseph, and said, Give us bread: for why should we die in thy presence: for the money faileth.
Pau iho la ko kala ma ka aina o Aigupita, a ma ka aina o Kanaana, a hele mai la ko Aigupita a pau io Iosepa la, i mai la, Ho mai i ai na makou, no ke aha la makou e make ai imua o kou alo i ka pau ana o ke kala?
16 And Joseph said, Give your cattle; and I will give you for your cattle, if money hath failed.
I mai la Iosepa ia lakou, Ina i pau ke kala, ho mai i ka oukou holoholona, a e haawi aku au i ai na oukou no ka oukou holoholona.
17 And they brought their cattle to Joseph: and Joseph gave them bread [in exchange] for horses, and for the flocks, and for the cattle of the herds, and for the asses; and he fed them with bread, for all their cattle, for that year.
Lawe mai la lakou i ka lakou holoholona ia Iosepa, a haawi aku la o Iosepa i ai na iakou, no na lio, a no na hipa, a no na bipi, a no na hoki, a malama aku la oia ia lakou i ka ai ia makahiki, no ka lakou holoholona.
18 When that year was ended, they came to him the second year, and said to him, We will not hide from my lord, how that our money is spent; my lord also hath our herds of cattle; there is not aught left in the sight of my lord, but our bodies and our lands:
A pau ae la ia makahiki, hele mai la lakou ia ia, i ka lua o na makahiki, i mai la ia ia, Aole makou e huna mai ko makou haku aku, i ka pau ana o ko makou kala, a me ka makou holoholona ia oe i ko makou haku. Aohe mea i koe imua ou, o ko makou kino, a me ko makou aina wale no.
19 Why shall we die before thy eyes, both we and our land? buy us and our land for bread, and we and our land will be servants to Pharaoh: and give [us] seed, that we may live, and not die, that the land be not desolate.
No ke aha la makou e make ai imua o kou mau maka, o makou a me ko makou aina! E kuai oe ia makou a me ko makou aina, no ka ai, a lilo makou a me ko makou aina i kauwa na Parao. E haawi mai hoi i hua, i ola makou, sole hoi e make, i ole ai e neoneo ka aina.
20 And Joseph bought all the land of Egypt for Pharaoh; for the Egyptians sold every man his field, because the famine prevailed over them: so the land became Pharaoh's.
Kuai iho la o Iosepa i ka aina a pau i Aigupita no Parao, no ka mea, kuai aku la na kanaka a pau o Aigupita i ko lakou aina, no ka mea, ua hauahana loa ka wi maluna o lakou, a lilo ae la ka aina no Parao.
21 And as for the people, he removed them to cities from [one] end of the borders of Egypt even to the [other] end thereof.
A lawe ae la ia i kanaka o kekahi kihi, a hoonoho ia lakou ma na kulanakauhale ma kela kihi o ka aina.
22 Only the land of the priests bought he not; for the priests had a portion [assigned them] by Pharaoh, and ate their portion which Pharaoh gave them: wherefore they sold not their lands.
O ka aina o na kahuna, aole ia i kuai, no ka mea, na Parao mai, ka na kahuna, a ai iho la lakou i ka mea a Parao i haawi mai ai na lakou, no ia mea, aole lakou i kuai i ko lakou aina.
23 Then Joseph said to the people, Behold, I have bought you this day and your land for Pharaoh: lo, [here is] seed for you, and ye shall sow the land.
Olelo iho o Iosepa i kanaka, Eia hoi, ua kuai au ia oukou i keia la no Parao, a me ko oukou aina; eia no ka hua na oukou e kanu i ka aina.
24 And it shall come to pass in the increase, that ye shall give the fifth [part] to Pharaoh, and four parts shall be your own, for seed of the field, and for your food, and for them of your households, and for food for your little ones.
Eia hoi kekahi, i ka hua ana mai, e haawi oukou i ka hapalima na Parao, a koe no eha mau hapa na oukou, i mea kanu o ka aina, a i mea ai na oukou, a na ko oukou kanaka, a i mea ai hoi na ka oukou kamalii.
25 And they said, Thou hast saved our lives: let us find grace in the sight of my lord, and we will be Pharaoh's servants.
I mai la lakou, Ua hoola mai oe ia makou, ina e loaa ia makou ka lokomaikaiia mai imua o na maka o ko'u haku, a e lilo auanei makou i poe kauwa na Parao.
26 And Joseph made it a law over the land of Egypt to this day, [that] Pharaoh should have the fifth [part]; except the land of the priests only, [which] became not Pharaoh's.
Hoopaa iho la o Iosepa ia mea i kanawai, mai ia manawa mai, ma ka aina o Aigupita, na Parao ka hapalima o ka ai; o ka aina o na kahuna wale no ka i koe, aole ia i lilo na Parao.
27 And Israel dwelt in the land of Egypt, in the country of Goshen; and they had possessions in it and grew, and multiplied exceedingly.
Noho iho la o Iseraela, ma ka aina o Aigupita, i ka aina o Gosena, a loaa mai la ia lakou ka waiwai ilaila, a hanau mai la lakou, a lilo ae la i poe nui loa.
28 And Jacob lived in the land of Egypt seventeen years: so the whole age of Jacob was a hundred and forty seven years.
O na makahiki o ka noho ana o Iakoba i ka aina o Aigupita, he umikumamahiku: a o na makahiki a pau o ke ola ana o Iakoba, hookahi haneri makahiki a me kanahakumamahiku.
29 And the time drew nigh that Israel must die: and he called his son Joseph, and said to him, If now I have found grace in thy sight, put, I pray thee, thy hand under my thigh, and deal kindly and truly with me; bury me not, I pray thee, in Egypt:
A kokoke aku la ka la e make ai o Iseraela, hea aku la ia i kana keiki ia Iosepa, i aku la ia ia, Ina i loaa mai ia'u ke alohaia imua o kou maka, e kau mai oe i kou lima malalo o ko'u uha. a e hana mai oe ia'u ma ka lokomaikai a me ka oiaio; ea, mai kanu oe ia'u ma Aigupita nei.
30 But I will lie with my fathers, and thou shalt carry me out of Egypt, and bury me in their burying-place. And he said, I will do as thou hast said.
E moe au me o'u mau makua. E lawe oe ia'u mai Aigupita aku, a e kanu ia'u ma ko lakou ilina. I mai la kela, E hana no wau e like mo kau olelo.
31 And he said, Swear to me: and he swore to him. And Israel bowed himself upon the bed's head.
I aku la keia, E hoohiki mai oe ia'u, a hoohiki iho la kela, a kulou hoomana iho la o Iseraela ma ke poo o kona wahi moe.
