< Genesis 50 >

1 Joseph el putatyang nu fin papa tumal ac tung ac ngok mutal.
And Joseph fell upon his father’s face, and wept upon him, and kissed him.
2 Na Joseph el sap mwet ono lal in unwela papa tumal, manol in oan paht.
And Joseph commanded his servants the physicians to embalm his father: and the physicians embalmed Israel.
3 Elos orekma kac len angngaul, fal nu ke lusen pacl se eneneyuk tuh mano se in ku in oan paht. Mwet Egypt elos eoksra kacl Jacob ke len itngoul.
And forty days were fulfilled for him; for so are fulfilled the days of those which are embalmed: and the Egyptians mourned for him threescore and ten days.
4 Ke safla pacl in eoksra uh, Joseph el fahk nu sin mwet pwapa lal tokosra, “Nunak munas, us kas se inge nu sel tokosra:
And when the days of his mourning were past, Joseph spake unto the house of Pharaoh, saying, If now I have found grace in your eyes, speak, I pray you, in the ears of Pharaoh, saying,
5 ‘Ke papa tumuk el apkuran in misa, el sap nga orala wulela se nu sel lah nga ac piknilya inkulyuk se ma el akoela in acn Canaan. Ke sripa se inge, nga siyuk kom in nunak munas filiyula nga in som pikinya we, na nga fah foloko.’”
My father made me swear, saying, Lo, I die: in my grave which I have digged for me in the land of Canaan, there shalt thou bury me. Now therefore let me go up, I pray thee, and bury my father, and I will come again.
6 Ac tokosra el topuk, “Fahsrot pikinya papa tomom an, oana ke kom tuh wuleang nu sel an.”
And Pharaoh said, Go up, and bury thy father, according as he made thee swear.
7 Ouinge Joseph el som in pikinya papa tumal. Mwet pwapa lal tokosra nukewa, mwet fulat inkul sel, ac mwet kol nukewa in acn Egypt elos welul Joseph som.
And Joseph went up to bury his father: and with him went up all the servants of Pharaoh, the elders of his house, and all the elders of the land of Egypt,
8 Sou lal, tamulel lal, ac mwet saya nukewa in sou lun papa tumal elos welul pac som. Tulik srisrik na natulos, wi sheep, nani, ac cow uh pa lula in acn Goshen.
And all the house of Joseph, and his brethren, and his father’s house: only their little ones, and their flocks, and their herds, they left in the land of Goshen.
9 Mwet kasrusr fin chariot ac mwet kasrusr fin horse elos oayapa welul som — u na lulap se.
And there went up with him both chariots and horsemen: and it was a very great company.
10 Ke elos tuku nu ke acn in kulkul wheat Atad, kutulap in Infacl Jordan, elos wowoyak ke tung ke pacl na loeloes se, ac Joseph el sapkin elos in eoksra len itkosr.
And they came to the threshingfloor of Atad, which [is] beyond Jordan, and there they mourned with a great and very sore lamentation: and he made a mourning for his father seven days.
11 Ke mwet Canaan elos liye mwet ma eoksra in acn Atad inge, elos fahk, “Ku fuka lupan eoksra se mwet Egypt inge oru uh!” Pa inge ma se pwanang pangpang acn sac Abel Mizraim.
And when the inhabitants of the land, the Canaanites, saw the mourning in the floor of Atad, they said, This [is] a grievous mourning to the Egyptians: wherefore the name of it was called Abel-mizraim, which [is] beyond Jordan.
12 Ouinge wen natul Jacob elos oru oana ma el sapkin nu selos.
And his sons did unto him according as he commanded them:
13 Elos usla manol nu Canaan ac piknilya in luf se Machpelah, kutulap in acn Mamre, ke ipin acn se ma Abraham el tuh molela sel Ephron mwet Hit mwe kulyuk.
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 for a possession of a buryingplace of Ephron the Hittite, before Mamre.
14 Tukun Joseph el pikinya papa tumal, el ac tamulel lal ac mwet nukewa ma welul som in pukmas ah, elos folokla nu Egypt.
And Joseph returned into Egypt, he, and his brethren, and all that went up with him to bury his father, after he had buried his father.
15 Tukun papa tumalos ah misa, na mwet lel Joseph elos fahk, “Joseph el ac fin toasr sesr ac akoeyuk foloksak ke ma nukewa kut tuh oru koluk nu sel ah, na ac fuka?”
And when Joseph’s brethren saw that their father was dead, they said, Joseph will peradventure hate us, and will certainly requite us all the evil which we did unto him.
16 Ouinge elos sapla nu sel Joseph ac fahk, “Meet liki papa tumasr ah misa,
And they sent a messenger unto Joseph, saying, Thy father did command before he died, saying,
17 el tuh fahk nu sesr kut in siyuk sum ac fahk, ‘Nunak munas nu sin tamulel lom ke ma koluk ma elos tuh orala nu sum ah.’ Inge kut siyuk kom in nunak munas, tulekutla ke ma sufal ma kut, mwet kulansap lun God lun papa tomom, tuh orala nu sum ah.” Joseph el tung ke pacl se el eis kas inge.
So shall ye say unto Joseph, Forgive, I pray thee now, the trespass of thy brethren, and their sin; for they did unto thee evil: and now, we pray thee, forgive the trespass of the servants of the God of thy father. And Joseph wept when they spake unto him.
18 Na tamulel lal elos tuku ac epasrla nwe ten ye mutal ac fahk, “Kut tuku pa inge nu ye motom in mwet kohs lom.”
And his brethren also went and fell down before his face; and they said, Behold, we [be] thy servants.
19 Tusruktu Joseph el fahk nu selos, “Nikmet kowos sangeng. Nga tia ku in oru acnu mu God pa nga.
And Joseph said unto them, Fear not: for [am] I in the place of God?
20 Kowos tuh orek pwapa koluk lainyu, tusruktu God El furokla nu ke sie ouiya wo, ma in molela moul lun mwet puspis su moul misenge ke sripen ma su tuh sikyak.
But as for you, ye thought evil against me; [but] God meant it unto good, to bring to pass, as [it is] this day, to save much people alive.
21 Wangin ma kowos ac sangeng kac. Nga ac fah liyekowosyang ac tulik nutuwos an.” Ouinge el sifil akkeyalos ke kas na kulang su mokleak insialos.
Now therefore fear ye not: I will nourish you, and your little ones. And he comforted them, and spake kindly unto them.
22 Joseph el mutana in acn Egypt wi sou lun papa tumal. El tuh yac siofok singoul ke pacl se el misa ah.
And Joseph dwelt in Egypt, he, and his father’s house: and Joseph lived an hundred and ten years.
23 El moul ac liye tulik natul Ephraim, ac tulik nutin natul. El oayapa moul nwe ke na el eisalos tulik natul Machir, wen natul Manasseh, nu in sou uh.
And Joseph saw Ephraim’s children of the third [generation: ] the children also of Machir the son of Manasseh were brought up upon Joseph’s knees.
24 El fahk nu sin tamulel lal kewa, “Nga apkuran in misa, tusruktu pwayena God El ac fah liyekowosyang ac pwenkowosla liki facl se inge nu in facl se su El wulela ku na kac nu sel Abraham, Isaac, ac Jacob.”
And Joseph said unto his brethren, I die: and God will surely visit you, and bring you out of this land unto the land which he sware to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.
25 Na Joseph el siyuk sin mwet lal in orala sie fulahk. El fahk, “Wulema nu sik lah ke pacl se God El ac pwenkowosla nu in facl sac, kowos ac us srik wi kowos.”
And Joseph took an oath of the children of Israel, saying, God will surely visit you, and ye shall carry up my bones from hence.
26 Ouinge Joseph el misa Egypt ke el yac siofok singoul. Elos onoela manol ac filiya in box in mas se.
So Joseph died, [being] an hundred and ten years old: and they embalmed him, and he was put in a coffin in Egypt.
