Genesisy 50

1 Ary Josefa nihohoka tamin’ ny tavan’ ny rainy ka nitomany teo amboniny sady nanoroka azy.

And Joseph fell upon his father's face, and wept on him, and kissed him.

2 Ary nasain’ i Josefa nanosotra zava-manitra an-drainy ny mpanompony izay mpanao fanafody; dia nanosotra an’ Isiraely ny mpanao fanafody.

And Joseph commanded his servants the embalmers to embalm his father; and the embalmers embalmed Israel.

3 Ary notanterahiny taminy ny efa-polo andro, fa izany no isan’ ny andro nanosoram-paty; ary ny Egyptiana nisaona azy fito-polo andro.

And they fulfilled forty days for him, for so are the days of embalming numbered; and Egypt mourned for him seventy days.

4 Ary rehefa tapitra ny andro nisaonana azy, Josefa dia niteny tamin’ ny tao an-tranon’ i Farao ka nanao hoe: Raha mba nahita fitia eo imasonareo aho, masìna ianareo, lazao amin’ i Farao, ka ataovy hoe:

And when the days of mourning were past, Joseph spoke to the princes of Pharao, saying, If I have found favour in your sight, speak concerning me in the ears of Pharao, saying,

5 Ny raiko efa nampianiana ahy ka nanao hoe: Indro, ho faty aho; koa ao amin’ ny fasako, izay nohadiko ho ahy any amin’ ny tany Kanana, dia ao no andeveno ahy. Koa ankehitriny, trarantitra ianao, aoka aho hiakatra handevina ny raiko, dia hiverina atỳ indray.

My father adjured me, saying, In the sepulchre which I dug for myself in the land of Chanaan, there you shall bury me; now then I will go up and bury my father, and return again.

6 Ary hoy Farao: Miakara ary, ka aleveno ny rainao araka izay nampianianany anao.

And Pharao said to Joseph, Go up, bury your father, as he constrained you to swear.

7 Dia lasa niakatra Josefa handevina ny rainy; ary niara-niakatra taminy ny mpanompon’ i Farao rehetra, dia ny loholona tao an-tranony sy ny loholona rehetra tany amin’ ny tany Egypta,

So Joseph went up to bury his father; and all the servants of Pharao went up with him, and the elders of his house, and all the elders of the land of Egypt.

8 ary ny ankohonan’ i Josefa rehetra sy ny rahalahiny ary ny ankohonan-drainy; ny ankizy madinika sy ny ondriny aman’ osiny sy ny ombiny ihany no navelany tao amin’ ny tany Gosena.

And all the household of Joseph, and his brethren, and all the house of his father, and his kindred; and they left behind the sheep and the oxen in the land of Gesem.

9 Ary nisy kalesy sy mpitaingin-tsoavaly niara-niakatra taminy koa, ka lehibe dia lehibe ny tobiny.

And there went up with him also chariots and horsemen; and there was a very great company.

10 Ary rehefa tonga teo Goren’ atada izy, izay ao an-dafin’ i Jordana, dia nanao fisaonana lehibe sy mafy indrindra teo izy; dia nisaona an-drainy hafitoana Josefa.

And they came to the threshing floor of Atad, which is beyond Jordan; and they bewailed him with a great and very sore lamentation; and he made a mourning for his father seven days.

11 Ary rehefa hitan’ ny Kananita tompon-tany ny fisaonana teo Goren-atada, dia hoy izy: Fisaonana mafy amin’ ny Egyptiana izao; izany no nanaovany ny anarany hoe Abel-Egyptiana, izay ao an-dafin’ i Jordana.

And the inhabitants of the land of Chanaan saw the mourning at the floor of Atad, and said, This is a great mourning to the Egyptians; therefore he called its name, The mourning of Egypt, which is beyond Jordan.

12 Ary ny zanakalahin’ i Jakoba nanao taminy araka izay nandidiany azy,

And thus his sons did to him.

13 dia nitondra azy tany amin’ ny tany Kanana, ary nandevina azy tao amin’ ny zohy amin’ ny saha Makpela, tandrifin’ i Mamre, dia ilay novidin’ i Abrahama mbamin’ ny saha tamin’ i Efrona Hetita ho tany fandevenana.

So his sons carried him up into the land of Chanaan, and buried him in the double cave, which cave Abraam bought for possession of a burying place, of Ephrom the Chettite, before Mambre.

14 Ary rehefa voalevin’ i Josefa ny rainy, dia niverina tany Egypta izy sy ny rahalahiny mbamin’ izay rehetra niara-niakatra taminy handevina ny rainy.

And Joseph returned to Egypt, he and his brethren, and those that had gone up with him to bury his father.

15 Ary rehefa hitan’ ny rahalahin’ i Josefa fa maty ny rainy, dia hoy izy: Andrao hanao fo-lentika amintsika Josefa ka hamaly antsika tokoa noho izay ratsy rehetra nataontsika taminy.

And when the brethren of Joseph saw that their father was dead, they said, [Let us take heed], lest at any time Joseph remember evil against us, and recompense to us all the evils which we have done against him.

16 Dia naniraka nankany amin’ i Josefa izy ka nanao hoe: Ny rainao nanafatra, fony izy tsy mbola maty,

And they came to Joseph, and said, Your father adjured [us] before his death, saying,

17 ka nanao hoe: Izao no holazainareo amin’ i Josefa: Mamela re ny fahadisoan’ ny rahalahinao sy ny fahotany, fa efa nanao ratsy taminao izy; eny, mamela ankehitriny ny fahadisoan’ ny mpanompon’ ny Andriamanitry ny rainao. Dia nitomany Josefa, raha niteny taminy izy ireo.

Thus say you to Joseph, Forgive them their injustice and their sin, forasmuch as they have done you evil; and now pardon the injustice of the servants of the God of your father. And Joseph wept while they spoke to him.

18 Koa nanatona azy ny rahalahiny, dia niankohoka teo anatrehany ka nanao hoe: Indreto izahay ho mpanomponao.

And they came to him and said, We, these [persons], are your servants.

19 Ary hoy Josefa taminy: Aza matahotra; fa moa solon’ Andriamanitra va aho?

And Joseph said to them, Fear not, for I am God's.

20 Hianareo no nisaina hanisy ratsy ahy; fa Andriamanitra kosa nisaina izany ho soa, hanao tahaka ny amin’ izao anio izao, hamelona olona betsaka.

You took counsel against me for evil, but God took counsel for me for good, that [the matter] might be as [it is] today, and much people might be fed.

21 Koa ankehitriny, aza matahotra ianareo; fa izaho hamelona anareo sy ny zanakareo madinika. Dia nampionona azy sy nanao teny malefaka nahafinaritra azy izy.

And he said to them, Fear not, I will maintain you, and your families: and he comforted them, and spoke kindly to them.

22 Ary Josefa sy ny ankohonan’ ny rainy nonina tany Egypta; ary ny andro niainan’ i Josefa dia folo amby zato taona.

And Joseph lived in Egypt, he and his brethren, and all the family of his father; and Joseph lived a hundred and ten years.

23 Ary hitan’ i Josefa ny zafiafin’ i Efraima; ny zanak’ i Makira koa, zanakalahin’ i Manase, dia noraisin’ i Josefa ho eo am-pofoany.

And Joseph saw the children of Ephraim to the third generation; and the sons of Machir the son of Manasse were borne on the sides of Joseph.

24 Ary hoy Josefa tamin’ ny rahalahiny: Ho faty aho; nefa Andriamanitra hamangy anareo tokoa ka hitondra anareo hiala amin’ ity tany ity ho any amin’ ny tany izay nianianany tamin’ i Abrahama sy Isaka ary Jakoba homena azy.

And Joseph spoke to his brethren, saying, I die, and God will surely visit you, and will bring you out of this land to the land concerning which God sware to our fathers, Abraam, Isaac, and Jacob.

25 Ary Josefa dia nampianiana ny zanak’ Isiraely ka nanao hoe: Hamangy anareo tokoa Andriamanitra, dia hitondra ny taolako hiala eto ianareo.

And Joseph adjured the sons of Israel, saying, At the visitation with which God shall visit you, then you shall carry up my bones hence with you.

26 Dia maty Josefa, rehefa folo amby zato taona; ary dia nohosorany zava-manitra izy ka napetrany tao anatin’ ny vata tany Egypta.

And Joseph died, aged an hundred and ten years; and they prepared his corpse, and put him in a coffin in Egypt.
