< Genesisy 50 >
1 Nihotrak’ an-daharan-drae’eo t’Iosefe le nangoihoy ama’e vaho nañorok’ aze.
Joseph, realizing this, fell upon his father’s face, weeping and kissing him.
2 Linili’ Iosefe o mpanaha mpitoro’eo hañoloñe an-drae’e. Le hinolonkolo’ o mpanahao t’Israele;
And he instructed his servant physicians to embalm his father with aromatics.
3 efa-polo andro ty nirì’ iereo ama’e, amy te izay o andro mahafonitse ty fañolonkoloñan-jañahareo. Nandala fitom-polo andro ho aze o nte-Mitsraimeo.
And while they were fulfilling his orders, forty days passed. For this was the method of embalming dead bodies. And Egypt wept for him for seventy days.
4 Ie niheneke o androm-pandalàñe azeo le hoe ty lañona’ Iosefe amo añ’anjomba’ i Paròo, Aa naho nahatendreke isoke am-pahaisaha’areo iraho le saontsio an-dravembia’ i Parò ty hoe:
And when the time for mourning was fulfilled, Joseph spoke to the family of Pharaoh: “If I have found favor in your sight, speak to the ears of Pharaoh.
5 Nampifantàn-draeko ahy ty hoe: Ingo fa hikenkan-draho. Le aleveño an-kibory hinaliko ho am-batako an-tane Kanàne ao. Aa le angao iraho hionjom-b’eo handeveñe an-draeko vaho himpoly.
For my father made me swear, saying: ‘See, I am dying. You shall bury me in my sepulcher which I dug for myself in the land of Canaan.’ Therefore, I shall go up and bury my father, and then return.”
6 Hoe ty natoi’ i Parò, Mionjona, aleveño ty rae’o amy nampifantà’e azoy.
And Pharaoh said to him, “Go up and bury your father, just as he made you swear.”
7 Aa le nionjoñe t’Iosefe handeveñe an-drae’e. Fonga nindre ama’e ze mpitoro’ i Parò naho o roandria añ’ anjomba’e ao naho o roandria’ ty tane Mitsraime iabio,
So as he went up, all the elders of the house of Pharaoh went with him, along with every patriarch in the land of Egypt,
8 naho ty añ’anjomba’ Iosefe iaby, o rahalahi’eo vaho ty añ’ anjomban-drae’e. Fe napok’ an-tane Gosena ao o ana’iareoo naho o mpirai-trokeo naho o lia-raikeo.
and the house of Joseph with his brothers, except their little ones and flocks and also the herds, which they left behind in the land of Goshen.
9 Nindre-lia ama’e o sarete reketse mpindaio. Nivalobohòke jabajaba.
Likewise, he had in his company chariots and horsemen. And it became a crowd without restraint.
10 Ie nivotrak’ an-toem-pamofoha’ i Atade, alafe’ Iordaney, le nanao fandalàñe jabajaba nampioremeñe; fito andro ty nandalà’e an-drae’e.
And they arrived at the threshing place of Atad, which is situated beyond the Jordan. There they spent seven full days celebrating the funeral rites with a great and vehement lamentation.
11 Ie niisa’ o nte-Kanàne mpimoneñe amy taneio i fandalàñe an-tanem-pamofoha’ i Atadey le hoe iereo. Fandalàñe mampioje o anoe’ o nte-Mitsraimeo. Aa le natao Abele Mitsraime i tane andafe’ Iordaney zay,
And when the inhabitants of the land of Canaan had seen this, they said, “This is a great Lamentation for the Egyptians.” And for this reason, the name of that place was called, “The Lamentation of Egypt.”
12 naho nihenefe’ o ana-dahi’eo i nafè’ey:
And so, the sons of Jacob did just as he had instructed them.
13 Nitakone’ iereo mb’ an-tane Kanàne mb’eo vaho naleve’ iareo an-dakato an-tete’ i Makpelà ao, i vinili’ i Avrahame rekets’ i tonday marine i Mamrè amy Efrone nte-Khete ho tanen-dona’ey.
And carrying him into the land of Canaan, they buried him in the double cave, which Abraham had bought along with its field, from Ephron the Hittite, as a possession for burial, opposite Mamre.
14 Ie nandeveñe an-drae’e t’Iosefe le nimpoly mb’e Mitsraime añe rekets’ o rahalahi’eo naho i maro nindre nionjoñe ama’e mb’eo nandeveñe an-drae’ey.
And Joseph returned into Egypt with his brothers and all those of his company, having buried his father.
15 Aa ie nioni’ o rahalahi’ Iosefeo te nivilasy ty rae’ iareo le hoe ty fitsakorea’ iareo: Hera mitan-kabò aman-tika t’Iosefe hañondroha’e aman-tikañe ze fonga raty nanoan-tika?
Now that he was dead, his brothers were afraid, and they said to one another: “Perhaps now he may remember the injury that he suffered and requite us for all the evil that we did to him.”
16 Aa le nañitrik’ am’Iosefe iereo nanao ty hoe, Hoe ty nafèn-drae’o aolo’ t’ie nihomake,
So they sent a message to him, saying: “Your father instructed us before he died,
17 Zao ty ho enta’ areo am’ Iosefe: Ehe apoho ty tahiñe nanoa’ o rahalahi’oo naho i hakeo nanoe’ iereo nijoy azoy. Aa ie henaneo, ehe apoho ty hakeo’ o mpitoron’ Añaharen-drae’oo. Naharovetse t’Iosefe i enta’ iareo ama’ey.
that we should say these words to you from him: ‘I beg you to forget the wickedness of your brothers, and the sin and malice that they practiced against you.’ Likewise, we petition you to release the servants of the God of your father from this iniquity.” Hearing this, Joseph wept.
18 Nimb’eo amy zao o rahalahi’eo, nibabok’ añ’atrefa’eo, nanao ty hoe, Intoan-jahay fa ondevo’o.
And his brothers went to him. And reverencing prostrate on the ground, they said, “We are your servants.”
19 Aa hoe t’Iosefe am’ iereo, Ko hembañe, mpisolo an’ Andrianañahare v’o ahoo?
And he answered them: “Do not be afraid. Are we able to resist the will of God?
20 Inahareo ka, toe nikinia raty amako fe sinafirin’ Añahare ho soa, hiboaha’ o oniñe henaneo, hampitambeloma’e ondaty mitozantoza.
You devised evil against me. But God turned it into good, so that he might exalt me, just as you presently discern, and so that he might bring about the salvation of many peoples.
21 Aa le ko mahimahiñe, fa ho fahanako nahareo naho o keleia’ areoo. Amy hoe zay ty nampanintsiña’e, ie nisaontsy añ’arofo’ iareo ao.
Do not be afraid. I will pasture you and your little ones.” And he consoled them, and he spoke mildly and leniently.
22 Nimoneñe e Mitsraime ao t’Iosefe, ie naho ty hasavereñan-drae’e; vaho niveloñe zato-tsi-folo taoñe.
And he lived in Egypt with all his father’s house; and he survived for one hundred and ten years.
23 Niisa’ Iosefe o ana’ i Efraimeo pak’ ami’ty tariratse faha telo; nibeizeñe añ’ ongo’ Iosefe ka o ana’ i Makire, ana’ i Menasèo.
And he saw the sons of Ephraim to the third generation. Likewise, the sons of Machir, the son of Manasseh, were born onto Joseph’s knees.
24 Le hoe t’Iosefe aman-drahalahi’e, fa hikenkan-draho; le toe hitotsak’ ama’areo t’i Andrianañahare hinday anahareo hienga an-tane atoy homb’an-tane nifantà’e amy Avrahame, am’ Ietsàke naho am’Iakòbe.
After these things happened, he said to his brothers: “God will visit you after my death, and he will make you ascend from this land into the land which he swore to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.”
25 Aa le nampifantà’ Iosefe amo ana’ Israeleo ty hoe, Toe hañimba anahareo t’i Andrianañahare, vaho hakare’ areo an-tane atoy o taolakoo.
And when he had made them swear and had said, “God will visit you; carry my bones with you from this place,”
26 Nihomake t’Iosefe, ie ni-zato-tsi-folo taoñe, le naholonkoloñe naho napololòtse an-tsandòke e Mitsraime ao.
he died, having completed one hundred and ten years of his life. And having been embalmed with aromatics, he was laid to rest in a coffin in Egypt.
