Genesis 50
1 Joseph fell on his father’s face, wept on him, and kissed him.
Jozèf lage kò l' sou papa l', li kriye kont li, li bo l' nan figi.
2 Joseph commanded his servants, the physicians, to embalm his father; and the physicians embalmed Israel.
Apre sa, Jozèf rele dòktè ki t'ap sèvi l' yo, li fè yo pare kadav la. Se sa menm dòktè yo fè.
3 Forty days were used for him, for that is how many days it takes to embalm. The Egyptians wept for Israel for seventy days.
Yo pran karant jou pou pare kadav la jan yo konn fè l' la. Apre sa, moun peyi Lejip yo pase swasanndi jou ap kriye pou li.
4 When the days of weeping for him were past, Joseph spoke to Pharaoh’s staff, saying, “If now I have found favour in your eyes, please speak in the ears of Pharaoh, saying,
Lè tout swasanndi jou yo fin pase, jou pou antèman an rive. Jozèf pale ak moun lakay farawon yo, li di yo konsa: -Tanpri souple, rann mwen sèvis sa a. Pote komisyon sa a bay farawon an pou mwen.
5 ‘My father made me swear, saying, “Behold, I am dying. Bury me in my grave which I have dug for myself in the land of Canaan.” Now therefore, please let me go up and bury my father, and I will come again.’”
Di l' pou mwen: Anvan papa m' te mouri li te fè m' sèmante pou m' te antere l' nan kavo li te fè pare pou li nan peyi Kanaran. Tanpri, kite m' moute al antere papa m'. Apre sa, m'a tounen.
6 Pharaoh said, “Go up, and bury your father, just like he made you swear.”
Farawon an voye reponn li: -Ou mèt al antere papa ou, jan ou te sèmante ba li a.
7 Joseph went up to bury his father; and with him went up all the servants of Pharaoh, the elders of his house, all the elders of the land of Egypt,
Se konsa Jozèf moute al antere papa l'. tout moun lakay farawon yo, tout chèf ak tout notab peyi Lejip yo ale ak li,
8 all the house of Joseph, his brothers, and his father’s house. Only their little ones, their flocks, and their herds, they left in the land of Goshen.
ansanm ak tout fanmi Jozèf yo, frè l' yo, ak tout fanmi papa l' yo. Men yo te kite tout timoun piti yo Gochenn ansanm ak bèt yo, mouton, kabrit ak bèf.
9 Both chariots and horsemen went up with him. It was a very great company.
Te gen anpil cha ak anpil kavalye sou chwal ki t ale avek li. Kifè pa t' manke moun nan lantèman an.
10 They came to the threshing floor of Atad, which is beyond the Jordan, and there they lamented with a very great and severe lamentation. He mourned for his father seven days.
Lè yo rive nan glasi Atad ki lòt bò larivyè Jouden, kote sòlèy leve a, yo pran rele byen fò. Jozèf te fè yo fè sèvis la pandan sèt jou pou papa l'.
11 When the inhabitants of the land, the Canaanites, saw the mourning in the floor of Atad, they said, “This is a grievous mourning by the Egyptians.” Therefore its name was called Abel Mizraim, which is beyond the Jordan.
Lè moun peyi Kanaran yo wè sèvis lantèman yo t'ap fè Atad la, yo di: -Ala yon grannèg ki mouri lakay moun peyi Lejip yo papa! Se poutèt sa yo rele glasi ki lòt bò larivyè Jouden an: Glasi lapenn moun peyi Lejip yo.
12 His sons did to him just as he commanded them,
Konsa, pitit gason Jakòb yo te fè jan papa yo te ba yo lòd fè a.
13 for his sons carried him into the land of Canaan, and buried him in the cave of the field of Machpelah, which Abraham bought with the field, as a possession for a burial site, from Ephron the Hittite, near Mamre.
Yo pote kadav li nan peyi Kanaran, yo antere l' nan twou wòch ki te nan jaden Makpela a, anfas Manmre. Se jaden sa a Abraram te achte nan men Efwon, moun Et la, pou sèvi l' simityè.
14 Joseph returned into Egypt—he, and his brothers, and all that went up with him to bury his father, after he had buried his father.
Apre Jozèf fin antere papa l', li tounen Lejip ansanm ak frè l' yo ak tout moun ki te moute avè l' pou lantèman papa l' la.
15 When Joseph’s brothers saw that their father was dead, they said, “It may be that Joseph will hate us, and will fully pay us back for all the evil which we did to him.”
Apre lanmò papa yo, frè Jozèf yo di: -Ou pa janm konnen. Jozèf ka kenbe nou nan kè, li ka fè nou peye tout sa nou te fè l' yo.
16 They sent a message to Joseph, saying, “Your father commanded before he died, saying,
Se konsa yo voye di Jozèf: -Men komisyon papa te ban nou pou ou anvan l' te mouri:
17 ‘You shall tell Joseph, “Now please forgive the disobedience of your brothers, and their sin, because they did evil to you.”’ Now, please forgive the disobedience of the servants of the God of your father.” Joseph wept when they spoke to him.
Men sa n'a di Jozèf pou mwen: Tanpri, padonnen krim frè ou yo te fè ou la. Padonnen peche yo paske yo te fè ou mal anpil. Koulye a atò, tanpri, padonnen mal nou te fè ou la, nou menm k'ap sèvi Bondye papa ou la. Lè Jozèf tande pawòl sa a, li pran kriye.
18 His brothers also went and fell down before his face; and they said, “Behold, we are your servants.”
Apre sa, frè l' yo vini yo menm menm, yo bese tèt yo jouk atè devan li, yo di l' konsa: -Men nou pote tèt nou pou nou sèvi ou domestik.
19 Joseph said to them, “Don’t be afraid, for am I in the place of God?
Jozèf di yo: -Nou pa bezwen pè. Mwen pa kapab pran plas Bondye.
20 As for you, you meant evil against me, but God meant it for good, to save many people alive, as is happening today.
Nou te moute konplo pou fè m' mal. Men Bondye fè sa tounen yon byen, pou l' te fè sak rive jòdi a rive, pou l' te ka sove lavi tout kantite moun sa yo.
21 Now therefore don’t be afraid. I will provide for you and your little ones.” He comforted them, and spoke kindly to them.
Non. Nou pa bezwen pè. M'ap okipe nou, nou menm ansanm ak tout pitit nou yo. Se konsa, Jozèf te pale byen ak frè l' yo, li te di yo pawòl ki te touche kè yo, li remoute kouraj yo.
22 Joseph lived in Egypt, he, and his father’s house. Joseph lived one hundred and ten years.
Jozèf te rete nan peyi Lejip ak tout fanmi papa l' yo. Li te gen sandizan (110 an) lè l' mouri.
23 Joseph saw Ephraim’s children to the third generation. The children also of Machir, the son of Manasseh, were born on Joseph’s knees.
Li te gen tan wè pitit ak pitit pitit Efrayim. Se nan men l' pitit Maki yo te fèt. Maki sa a te pitit Manase.
24 Joseph said to his brothers, “I am dying, but God will surely visit you, and bring you up out of this land to the land which he swore to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.”
Li di frè l' yo konsa: -Mwen pral mouri. Men mwen sèten Bondye gen pou vin ede nou. L'ap fè nou kite peyi sa a, l'ap fè nou tounen nan peyi li te sèmante l'ap bay Abraram, Izarak ak Jakòb la.
25 Joseph took an oath from the children of Israel, saying, “God will surely visit you, and you shall carry up my bones from here.”
Apre sa, Jozèf fè pitit Izrayèl yo sèmante ba li, li di yo: -Wi, Bondye gen pou vin ede nou. Lè sa a, tanpri, pote zosman m' yo moute ak nou.
26 So Joseph died, being one hundred and ten years old, and they embalmed him, and he was put in a coffin in Egypt.
Lè Jozèf mouri li te gen sandizan (110 an). Yo benyen kadav la, yo pare l' pou l' pa pouri. Yo mete l' nan yon sèkèy byen fèmen nan peyi Lejip.
