Genesis 50
1 And Joseph falleth on his father's face, and weepeth over him, and kisseth him;
Jožef je padel na očetov obraz, jokal na njem in ga poljubil.
2 and Joseph commandeth his servants, the physicians, to embalm his father, and the physicians embalm Israel;
Jožef je zapovedal svojim služabnikom zdravnikom, naj balzamirajo njegovega očeta in zdravniki so balzamirali Izraela.
3 and they fulfil for him forty days, for so they fulfil the days of the embalmed, and the Egyptians weep for him seventy days.
Štirideset dni je bilo izpolnjeno zanj, kajti tako so izpolnjeni dnevi tistih, ki so balzamirani in Egipčani so žalovali za njim sedemdeset dni.
4 And the days of his weeping pass away, and Joseph speaketh unto the house of Pharaoh, saying, 'If, I pray you, I have found grace in your eyes, speak, I pray you, in the ears of Pharaoh, saying,
Ko so dnevi njegovega žalovanja minili, je Jožef govoril faraonovi hiši, rekoč: »Če sem torej našel milost v vaših očeh, govorite, prosim vas, na faraonova ušesa, rekoč:
5 My father caused me to swear, saying, Lo, I am dying; in my burying-place which I have prepared for myself in the land of Canaan, there dost thou bury me; and now, let me go up, I pray thee, and bury my father, and return;'
›Moj oče me je zaprisegel, rekoč: ›Glej, jaz umrem. V mojem grobu, ki sem si ga izkopal v kánaanski deželi, tam me boš pokopal.‹ Zato me torej pusti iti gor, prosim te in pokopljem svojega očeta in bom ponovno prišel.‹«
6 and Pharaoh saith, 'Go up and bury thy father, as he caused thee to swear.'
Faraon je rekel: »Pojdi gor in pokoplji svojega očeta, kakor te je zaprisegel.«
7 And Joseph goeth up to bury his father, and go up with him do all the servants of Pharaoh, elders of his house, and all the elders of the land of Egypt,
Jožef je odšel gor, da pokoplje svojega očeta in z njim so odšli gor vsi faraonovi služabniki, starešine njegove hiše, vse starešine egiptovske dežele,
8 and all the house of Joseph, and his brethren, and the house of his father; only their infants, and their flock, and their herd, have they left in the land of Goshen;
vsa Jožefova hiša, njegovi bratje in hiša njegovega očeta. Samo svoje malčke, svoje trope in svoje črede so pustili v gošenski deželi.
9 and there go up with him both chariot and horsemen, and the camp is very great.
Z njim so odšli gor tako bojni vozovi kakor konjeniki in to je bila zelo velika skupina.
10 And they come unto the threshing-floor of Atad, which [is] beyond the Jordan, and they lament there, a lamentation great and very grievous; and he maketh for his father a mourning seven days,
Prišli so k mlatišču Atádu, ki je onstran Jordana in tam so žalovali z velikim in zelo bolečim objokovanjem in za svojega očeta je pripravil sedemdnevno žalovanje.
11 and the inhabitant of the land, the Canaanite, see the mourning in the threshing-floor of Atad, and say, 'A grievous mourning [is] this to the Egyptians;' therefore hath [one] called its name 'The mourning of the Egyptians,' which [is] beyond the Jordan.
Ko so prebivalci dežele, Kánaanci, videli žalovanje na Atádovih tleh, so rekli: »To objokovanje je Egipčanom boleče.« Torej je bilo ime le-tega imenovano Abél Micrájim, ki je onkraj Jordana.
12 And his sons do to him so as he commanded them,
Njegovi sinovi so mu storili glede na to, kakor jim je zapovedal,
13 and his sons bear him away to the land of Canaan, and bury him in the cave of the field of Machpelah, which Abraham bought with the field for a possession of a burying-place, from Ephron the Hittite, on the front of Mamre.
kajti njegovi sinovi so ga odnesli v kánaansko deželo in ga pokopali v votlini polja Mahpéle, ki ga je Abraham kupil s poljem za grobno posest od Hetejca Efróna, pred Mamrejem.
14 And Joseph turneth back to Egypt, he and his brethren, and all who are going up with him to bury his father, after his burying his father.
Potem ko je pokopal svojega očeta, se je Jožef vrnil v Egipt, on in njegovi bratje in vsi, ki so z njim odšli gor, da pokopljejo njegovega očeta.
15 And the brethren of Joseph see that their father is dead, and say, 'Peradventure Joseph doth hate us, and doth certainly return to us all the evil which we did with him.'
Ko so Jožefovi bratje videli, da je bil njihov oče mrtev, so rekli: »Jožef nas bo morda sovražil in nam bo zagotovo poplačal vse zlo, ki smo mu ga storili.«
16 And they give a charge for Joseph, saying, 'Thy father commanded before his death, saying,
K Jožefu so poslali poslanca, rekoč: »Tvoj oče je dal zapoved, preden je umrl, rekoč:
17 Thus ye do say to Joseph, I pray thee, bear, I pray thee, with the transgression of thy brethren, and their sin, for they have done thee evil; and now, bear, we pray thee, with the transgression of the servants of the God of thy father;' and Joseph weepeth in their speaking unto him.
›Tako boste rekli Jožefu: ›Odpusti, prosim te sedaj, prekršek svojih bratov in njihov greh, kajti storili so ti zlo in sedaj, prosimo te, odpusti prekršek služabnikom Boga svojega očeta.‹« In Jožef je jokal, ko so mu govorili.
18 And his brethren also go and fall before him, and say, 'Lo, we [are] to thee for servants.'
Tudi njegovi bratje so padli dol pred njegovim obličjem in rekli: »Glej, mi smo tvoji služabniki.«
19 And Joseph saith unto them, 'Fear not, for [am] I in the place of God?
Jožef jim je rekel: »Ne bojte se, kajti ali sem jaz na mestu Boga?
20 As for you, ye devised against me evil — God devised it for good, in order to do as [at] this day, to keep alive a numerous people;
Toda kar se tiče vas, ste zoper mene mislili zlo, toda Bog je to preobrnil v dobro, da izvrši, kakor je to današnji dan, da veliko ljudi reši živih.
21 and now, fear not: I do nourish you and your infants;' and he comforteth them, and speaketh unto their heart.
Zdaj se torej ne bojte, hranil bom vas in vaše malčke.« Potolažil jih je in prijazno govoril z njimi.
22 And Joseph dwelleth in Egypt, he and the house of his father, and Joseph liveth a hundred and ten years,
Jožef je prebival v Egiptu, on in hiša njegovega očeta in Jožef je živel sto deset let.
23 and Joseph looketh on Ephraim's sons of the third [generation]; sons also of Machir, son of Manasseh, have been born on the knees of Joseph.
Jožef je videl Efrájimove otroke tretjega rodu. Tudi otroci Mahírja, Manásejevega sina, so bili vzgojeni na Jožefovih kolenih.
24 And Joseph saith unto his brethren, 'I am dying, and God doth certainly inspect you, and hath caused you to go up from this land, unto the land which He hath sworn to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.'
Jožef je rekel svojim bratom: »Jaz umiram, Gospod pa vas bo zagotovo obiskal in vas privedel ven iz te dežele, v deželo, ki jo je prisegel Abrahamu, Izaku in Jakobu.«
25 And Joseph causeth the sons of Israel to swear, saying, 'God doth certainly inspect you, and ye have brought up my bones from this [place].'
Jožef je Izraelove otroke zaprisegel, rekoč: »Bog vas bo zagotovo obiskal in vi boste moje kosti odnesli od tod.«
26 And Joseph dieth, a son of an hundred and ten years, and they embalm him, and he is put into a coffin in Egypt.
Tako je Jožef umrl, star sto deset let in balzamirali so ga in položen je bil v krsto v Egiptu.
