Genesisy 50
1 Ary Josefa nihohoka tamin’ ny tavan’ ny rainy ka nitomany teo amboniny sady nanoroka azy.
And Joseph falls on his father’s face, and weeps over him, and kisses 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 commands his servants, the physicians, to embalm his father, and the physicians embalm 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 fulfill for him forty days, for so they fulfill the days of the embalmed, and the Egyptians weep 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 the days of his weeping pass away, and Joseph speaks to the house of Pharaoh, saying, “Now if I have found grace in your eyes, please speak in the ears of Pharaoh, 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 caused me to swear, saying, Behold, I am dying; in my burying-place which I have prepared for myself in the land of Canaan, there you bury me; and now, please let me go up and bury my father, then I return”;
6 Ary hoy Farao: Miakara ary, ka aleveno ny rainao araka izay nampianianany anao.
and Pharaoh says, “Go up and bury your father, as he caused 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,
And Joseph goes up to bury his father, and all [the] servants of Pharaoh go up with him, [the] elderly of his house, and all [the] elderly 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 house of Joseph, and his brothers, and the house of his father; only their infants, and their flock, and their herd, have they left in the land of Goshen;
9 Ary nisy kalesy sy mpitaingin-tsoavaly niara-niakatra taminy koa, ka lehibe dia lehibe ny tobiny.
and there go up with him both chariot and horsemen, and the camp is very great.
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 come to the threshing-floor of Atad, which [is] beyond the Jordan, and they lament there, a lamentation great and very grievous; and he makes for his father a mourning 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 inhabitant of the land, the Canaanite, sees the mourning in the threshing-floor of Atad and says, “A grievous mourning [is] this to the Egyptians”; therefore [one] has called its name “The mourning of the Egyptians,” which [is] beyond the Jordan.
12 Ary ny zanakalahin’ i Jakoba nanao taminy araka izay nandidiany azy,
And his sons do to him so as he commanded them,
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.
and his sons carry 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.
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 turns back to Egypt, he and his brothers, and all who are going up with him to bury his father, after his burying 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 the brothers of Joseph see that their father is dead, and say, “Perhaps Joseph hates us, and certainly returns to us all the evil which we did with him.”
16 Dia naniraka nankany amin’ i Josefa izy ka nanao hoe: Ny rainao nanafatra, fony izy tsy mbola maty,
And they give a charge for Joseph, saying, “Your father commanded 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 you say to Joseph: Ah, now, please bear with the transgression of your brothers and their sin, for they have done you evil; and now, please bear with the transgression of the servants of the God of your father”; and Joseph weeps in their speaking to him.
18 Koa nanatona azy ny rahalahiny, dia niankohoka teo anatrehany ka nanao hoe: Indreto izahay ho mpanomponao.
And his brothers also go and fall before him, and say, “Behold, we [are] to you for servants.”
19 Ary hoy Josefa taminy: Aza matahotra; fa moa solon’ Andriamanitra va aho?
And Joseph says to them, “Do not fear, for [am] I in the place of God?
20 Hianareo no nisaina hanisy ratsy ahy; fa Andriamanitra kosa nisaina izany ho soa, hanao tahaka ny amin’ izao anio izao, hamelona olona betsaka.
As for you, you devised evil against me, [but] God devised it for good, in order to do as [at] this day, to keep alive a numerous people;
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 now, do not fear: I nourish you and your infants”; and he comforts them, and speaks to their heart.
22 Ary Josefa sy ny ankohonan’ ny rainy nonina tany Egypta; ary ny andro niainan’ i Josefa dia folo amby zato taona.
And Joseph dwells in Egypt, he and the house of his father, and Joseph lives one 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 looks on Ephraim’s sons of a third [generation]; sons also of Machir, son of Manasseh, have been born on the knees 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 says to his brothers, “I am dying, and God certainly inspects you, and has caused you to go up from this land, to the land which He has sworn to Abraham, to Isaac, and to 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 causes the sons of Israel to swear, saying, “God certainly inspects you, and you have brought up my bones from this [place].”
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 dies, a son of one hundred and ten years, and they embalm him, and he is put into a coffin in Egypt.
