Joseph [May he add] fell on his father’s face, wept on him, and kissed him.
2 Linili’ Iosefe o mpanaha mpitoro’eo hañoloñe an-drae’e. Le hinolonkolo’ o mpanahao t’Israele;
Joseph [May he add] enjoined his servants, the physicians, to embalm his father; and the physicians embalmed Israel [God prevails].
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.
Forty days were fulfilled for him, for that is how many the days it takes to embalm. The Egyptians [people from Abode of slavery] 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:
When the days of weeping for him were past, Joseph [May he add] spoke to the house of Pharaoh, saying, “If now I have found chen ·grace· in your eyes, please speak in the ears of Pharaoh, saying,
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.
‘My father made me swear, saying, “Behold, I am dying. Bury me in my grave which I have dug for myself in the land of Canaan [Humbled].” Now therefore, please let me go up and bury my father, and I will come again.’”
6 Hoe ty natoi’ i Parò, Mionjona, aleveño ty rae’o amy nampifantà’e azoy.
Pharaoh said, “Go up, and bury your father, just like 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,
Joseph [May he add] went up to bury his father; and with him went up all the servants of Pharaoh, the elders of his house, all the elders of the land of Egypt [Abode of slavery],
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.
All the house of Joseph [May he add], his brothers, and his father’s house. Only their little ones, their flocks, and their herds, they left in the land of Goshen [Drawing near].
9 Nindre-lia ama’e o sarete reketse mpindaio. Nivalobohòke jabajaba.
There went up with him both chariots and horsemen. It was a very great company.
10 Ie nivotrak’ an-toem-pamofoha’ i Atade, alafe’ Iordaney, le nanao fandalàñe jabajaba nampioremeñe; fito andro ty nandalà’e an-drae’e.
They came to the threshing floor of Atad, which is beyond the Jordan [Descender], and there they lamented with a very great and severe lamentation. He mourned for his father seven days.
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,
When the inhabitants of the land, the Canaanites [Descendants of Humbled], saw the mourning in the floor of Atad, they said, “This is a grievous mourning by the Egyptians [people from Abode of slavery].” Therefore its name was called Abel [Vanity, Mourning] Mizraim, which is beyond the Jordan [Descender].
12 naho nihenefe’ o ana-dahi’eo i nafè’ey:
His sons did to him just as he enjoined 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.
for his sons carried him into the land of Canaan [Humbled], and buried him in the cave of the field of Machpelah [Double], which Abraham [Father of a multitude] bought with the field, for a possession of a burial site, from Ephron [Fawn-like] the Hittite [Descendant of Trembling fear], before Mamre [Bitter, Fatness].
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.
Joseph [May he add] returned into Egypt [Abode of slavery]— he, and his brothers, and all that went up with him to bury his father, after he had 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?
When Joseph [May he add]’s brothers saw that their father was dead, they said, “It may be that Joseph [May he add] will hate us, and will fully pay us back for all the evil which we did to him.”
16 Aa le nañitrik’ am’Iosefe iereo nanao ty hoe, Hoe ty nafèn-drae’o aolo’ t’ie nihomake,
They sent a message to Joseph [May he add], saying, “Your father enjoined before he died, saying,
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.
‘You shall tell Joseph [May he add], “Now please forgive the rebellious breach of relationship of your brothers, and their habitual sin ·missing the mark·, because they did evil to you.”’ Now, please forgive the rebellious breach of relationship of the servants of the God of your father.” Joseph [May he add] wept when they spoke to him.
18 Nimb’eo amy zao o rahalahi’eo, nibabok’ añ’atrefa’eo, nanao ty hoe, Intoan-jahay fa ondevo’o.
His brothers also went and fell down before his face; and they said, “Behold, we are your servants.”
19 Aa hoe t’Iosefe am’ iereo, Ko hembañe, mpisolo an’ Andrianañahare v’o ahoo?
Joseph [May he add] said to them, “Don’t be afraid, for am I in the place of God?
20 Inahareo ka, toe nikinia raty amako fe sinafirin’ Añahare ho soa, hiboaha’ o oniñe henaneo, hampitambeloma’e ondaty mitozantoza.
As for you, you meant evil against me, but God meant it for good, to bring to pass, as it is today, to save many people alive.
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.
Now therefore don’t be afraid. I will nourish you and your little ones.” He comforted them, and spoke kindly to them.
22 Nimoneñe e Mitsraime ao t’Iosefe, ie naho ty hasavereñan-drae’e; vaho niveloñe zato-tsi-folo taoñe.
Joseph [May he add] lived in Egypt [Abode of slavery], he, and his father’s house. Joseph [May he add] lived one hundred 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.
Joseph [May he add] saw Ephraim [Fruit]’s children to the third generation. The children also of Machir, the son of Manasseh [Causing to forget], were born on Joseph [May he add]’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.
Joseph [May he add] said to his brothers, “I am dying, but God will surely visit you, and bring you up out of this land to the land which he swore to Abraham [Father of a multitude], to Isaac [Laughter], and to Jacob [Supplanter].”
25 Aa le nampifantà’ Iosefe amo ana’ Israeleo ty hoe, Toe hañimba anahareo t’i Andrianañahare, vaho hakare’ areo an-tane atoy o taolakoo.
Joseph [May he add] took an oath of the children of Israel [God prevails], saying, “God will surely visit you, and you shall carry up my bones from here.”
26 Nihomake t’Iosefe, ie ni-zato-tsi-folo taoñe, le naholonkoloñe naho napololòtse an-tsandòke e Mitsraime ao.
So Joseph [May he add] died, being one hundred ten years old, and they embalmed him, and he was put in a coffin in Egypt [Abode of slavery].
