Genesis 47
1 Kalpasanna, napan ni Jose ket imbagana iti Faraon, “Simmangpet ti amak, ken dagiti kakabsatko, dagiti arbanda ken amin a kukuada manipud iti daga ti Canaan. Addada ita idiay daga ti Gosen.”
Joseph went to report to Pharaoh and told him, “My father and brothers, along with their flocks and herds and all their possessions, have arrived from the land of Canaan and now they're here in Goshen.”
2 Insurotna ti lima kadagiti kakabsatna ket inyam-ammona ida iti Faraon.
Joseph took five of his brothers to go with him and introduced them to Pharaoh.
3 Kinuna ti Faraon kadagiti kakabsatna, “Ania ti trabahoyo?” Kinunada iti Faraon, “Agpaspastor dagiti adipenmo, kas kadagiti kapuonanmi.”
Pharaoh asked the brothers, “What work do you do?” “Your servants are shepherds, just like our fathers before us,” they replied.
4 Ket kinunada iti Faraon, “Immaykami kas saan nga agpaut nga agnaed iti daga. Awan ti pagpastoran para kadagiti arban dagiti adipenmo, gapu ta nakaro unay ti panagbisin iti daga ti Canaan. Isu nga ita, pangaasim ta palubosam nga agnaed dagiti adipenmo iti daga ti Gosen.”
“We have come to live in Egypt because there's no grass left in Canaan for our flocks to eat,” they explained. “The famine is really bad in Canaan. So we would like to please ask permission to live in Goshen.”
5 Kalpasanna, nagsao ti Faraon kenni Jose, kunana, “Immay ti amam ken dagiti kakabsatmo kenka.
Pharaoh said to Joseph, “Now that your father and brothers have arrived to join you,
6 Adda iti sangoanam ti daga ti Egipto. Pagnaedem ti amam ken dagiti kakabsatmo a lallaki iti kasayaatan a rehion, ti daga ti Gosen. No adda ammom a siasinoman a lallaki nga addaan iti kabaelan kadakuada, isaadmo ida nga agaywan kadagiti dingwenko.”
you can choose wherever you like in Egypt, the best place, for them to live. Let them live in Goshen. If you know any of them who are good at what they do, put them in charge of my livestock as well.”
7 Kalpasanna, intugot ni Jose ni Jacob nga amana ket imparangna iti Faraon. Binendisionan ni Jacob ti Faraon.
Then Joseph went with his father Jacob and introduced him Pharaoh. After Jacob blessed Pharaoh,
8 Kinuna ti Faraon kenni Jacob, “Kasanon kaatiddug ti panagbiagmo?”
Pharaoh asked him, “So how long have you lived?”
9 Kinuna ni Jacob iti Faraon, “130 dagiti tawen a panagdaldaliasatko. Bassit laeng ken nakas-ang dagiti tawen ti panagbiagko. Saan nga atiddug a kas iti kaatiddug ti panagbiag dagiti kapuonak.”
“I have been wandering for 130 years,” Jacob replied. “My life has been short and difficult—I have not lived as long as my forefathers who also wandered from place to place.”
10 Kalpasanna, binendisionan ni Jacob ti Faraon ket pimmanaw iti sangoananna.
Then Jacob blessed Pharaoh again before leaving him.
11 Kalpasanna, inaywanan ni Jose ti amana ken dagiti kakabsatna. Inikkanna ida ti masakupan iti daga ti Egipto, ti kasasayaatan iti daga, iti daga ti Rameses, kas imbilin ti Faraon.
So Joseph arranged for his father and brothers to live in Egypt and gave them land in the best part near Rameses, as Pharaoh had ordered.
12 Nangipaay ni Jose iti taraon a maipaay iti amana, kadagiti kakabsatna, ken amin a sangkabalayan ti amana, segun iti bilang dagiti bibiagenda.
He also provided food for all of them—his father, his brothers, and his father's whole household—depending on family size.
13 Ita, awan taraon iti amin a daga; ta nakaro unay ti panagbisin. Nakakaasi ti daga ti Egipto ken ti daga ti Canaan gapu iti panagbisin.
No food was left in the whole country because the famine had become so bad. Throughout Egypt and Canaan people were starving.
14 Inurnong ni Jose ti amin a kuarta nga adda iti daga ti Egipto ken iti daga ti Canaan, babaen ti panaglaklakona iti trigo kadagiti agnanaed. Ket impan ni Jose ti kuarta iti palasio ti Faraon.
By selling grain Joseph collected all the money in Egypt and Canaan, and placed it in Pharaoh's treasury.
15 Idi naibusen ti amin a kuarta dagiti daga ti Egipto ken Canaan, immay amin a taga-Egipto kenni Jose a kunkunada, “Ikkandakami iti taraon! Rumbeng kadi a mataykami lattan iti imatangmo gapu ta naibusen ti kuartami?”
Once the money from Egypt and Canaan had run out, the Egyptians all came to Joseph and demanded, “Give us food! Do you want us to die right in front of you? All our money is gone!”
16 Kinuna ni Jose, “No naibusen ti kuartayo, iyegyo dagiti tarakenyo ket ikkankayonto iti taraon a kas sukat dagiti tarakenyo.”
“Bring me your livestock,” Joseph told them. “I'll give you grain in exchange for your livestock if you've run out of money.”
17 Inyegda ngarud kenni Jose dagiti tarakenda. Inikkan ida ni Jose iti taraon a kas sukat dagiti kabalio, dagiti arban, ken dagiti asno. Pinakanna ida iti tinapay a kas sukat ti amin a tarakenda iti dayta a tawen.
So they brought Joseph their livestock, and he provided them with grain in exchange for their horses, sheep, goats, cattle, and donkeys. He gave them grain in return for their livestock during that year.
18 Idi agleppasen dayta a tawen, napanda kenkuana iti sumaruno a tawen ket kinunada kenkuana, “Saanmi nga ilimed iti apomi a naibusen ti kuartami, ken kukuan ti apomi dagiti tarakenmi. Awanen a pulos ti nabati iti imatang ti apomi, malaksid kadagiti bagimi ken dagami.
But when that year was over, they came to him the next year and said, “My lord, we can't hide from you the fact that our money is gone and that you now own our livestock. All we have left to give you are our bodies and our land.
19 Rumbeng kadi a mataykami lattan iti sangoanam, dakami ken ti dagami? Gatangendakami ken ti dagami a kas kasukat iti taraon, ket agbalinkaminto nga adipen ti Faraon, dakami ken ti dagami. Ikkandakami iti bukel tapno agbiagkami a saan ket a matay, ken tapno saan koma nga agbalin a langalang ti daga.”
Do you want us to die right in front of you? So buy us and our land in return for food. Then our land will belong to Pharaoh, and we'll be his slaves. Just give us grain so we can live and won't die, and so the land won't be abandoned.”
20 Ginatang ngarud amin ni Jose ti amin a daga iti Egipto para iti Faraon. Ta inlako ti tunggal Egipcio ti talonna, gapu ta nakaro unay ti panagbisin. Iti kastoy a wagas, nagbalin a kukua ti Faraon ti daga.
So Joseph bought all the land in Egypt for Pharaoh. Each and every Egyptian sold their fields, because the famine was hurting them so badly. The land ended up being owned by Pharaoh,
21 No maipanggep met kadagiti tattao, pinagbalinna ida a tagabu manipud iti pagpatinggaan ti beddeng ti Egipto agingga iti kasumbangir a pagpatinggaan.
and all the people became his slaves, from one end of Egypt to the other.
22 Ti laeng daga dagiti papadi ti saan a ginatang ni Jose, gapu ta naikkan dagiti papadi iti abasto. Nanganda manipud iti bingay nga it-ited ti Faraon kadakuada. Isu a saanda nga inlako ti dagada.
The only land he didn't buy belonged to the priests because they had a food allowance provided to them by Pharaoh, so they didn't have to sell their land.
23 Kalpasanna, kinuna ni Jose kadagiti tattao, “Kitaenyo, ginatangkayo ken ti dagayo ita para iti Faraon. Ita, adtoy ti bukel para kadakayo, ket mulaanyonto ti daga.
Then Joseph told the people, “Listen to me! Now that I have bought you and your land for Pharaoh, I'm giving you some seed for you to sow the fields.
24 Iti panagaapit, masapul nga itedyo ti apagkalima iti Faraon ket kukuayonto ti uppat a paset, mausar daytoy kas bin-i para iti talon ken taraon dagiti sangkabalayanyo ken dagiti annakyo.”
However, when it's harvested, you have to give one fifth of it to Pharaoh. The other four-fifths you can keep as seed for the fields and as food for you, your households, and your children.”
25 Kinunada, “Inispalmo dagiti biagmi. Makasarakkami koma iti pabor kadagiti matam. Agbalinkami nga ad-adipen ti Faraon.”
“You've saved our lives,” they declared. “May you continue to treat us well, my lord, and we'll be Pharaoh's slaves.”
26 Inaramid ngarud daytoy ni Jose a linteg a maipatpatungpal iti daga ti Egipto agingga kadagitoy nga aldaw, a kukua ti Faraon ti apagkalima. Ti laeng daga dagiti papadi ti saan a nagbalin a kukua ti Faraon.
So Joseph made it a law for Egypt which is still is in effect today that one fifth of all produce from the land belongs to Pharaoh. Only the priests' land was exempt since it did not belong to Pharaoh.
27 Nagnaed ngarud ni Israel iti daga ti Egipto, iti daga ti Gosen. Nakagun-od dagiti tattaona kadagiti sanikua sadiay. Nagbunga ken immaduda iti kasta unay.
The Israelites settled in Goshen in Egypt where they became prosperous landowners and rapidly increased in number.
28 Nagnaed ni Jacob iti daga ti Egipto iti sangapulo ket pito a tawen, isu a sangagasut uppat a pulo ket pito ti tawen ti panagbiag ni Jacob.
Jacob lived in Egypt for seventeen years, so he lived in total 137 years.
29 Idi umadanin ti tiempo nga ipapatay ni Israel, inayabanna ni Jose nga anakna ket kinunana kenkuana, “No nakasarakak ita ti pabor iti imatangmo, ikabilmo ta imam iti sirok ti luppok, ket ipakitam kaniak iti kinapudno ken kinamapagtalkan. Pangaasim ta saannak nga itabon ditoy Egipto.
When the time came for Israel to die, he called for his son Joseph and said to him, “If you think well of me, place your hand under my thigh and promise to treat me with trustworthy love and faithfulness. Don't bury me here in Egypt.
30 Inton pumusayak, ipanawnakto iti Egipto ket itabonnak iti disso a nakaitaneman dagiti ammak.” Kinuna ni Jose, “Aramidekto ti kas iti imbagam.”
When I die, bury me with my forefathers. You must take my body from Egypt to the family tomb and bury me with them.” “I will do as you say,” Joseph promised.
31 Kinuna ni Israel, “Agsapataka kaniak,” ket nagsapata ni Jose kenkuana. Kalpasanna, nagdumog ni Israel iti uloanan ti pagiddaanna.
“Swear to me that you will,” he said. Joseph swore that he would. Israel bowed in worship at the head of his bed.
