Gênesis 50
1 Então José se lançou sobre o rosto de seu pai; e chorou sobre ele, e o beijou.
Then Joseph was so distressed that he collapsed on the face of his father, and he wept over him, and he kissed him.
2 E José ordenou aos seus servos, os médicos, que embalsamassem a seu pai: e os médicos embalsamaram a Israel.
Joseph commanded his servants the physicians to embalm his father. So the physicians embalmed Israel.
3 E cumpriram-se-lhe quarenta dias; porque assim se cumprem os dias daqueles que se embalsamam: e os egípcios o choraram setenta dias.
They took forty days, for that was the full time for embalming. The Egyptians wept for him seventy days.
4 Passados pois os dias de seu choro, falou José à casa de faraó, dizendo: Se agora tenho achado graça aos vossos olhos, rogo-vos que faleis aos ouvidos de faraó, dizendo:
When the days of weeping were over, Joseph spoke to the house of Pharaoh, saying, “If now I have found favor in your eyes, please speak to Pharaoh, saying,
5 Meu pai me fez jurar, dizendo: Eis que eu morro: em meu sepulcro, que cavei para mim na terra de Canaan, ali me sepultarás. Agora pois, te peço, que eu suba, para que sepulte a meu pai; então voltarei.
'My father made me swear, saying, “See, I am about to die. Bury me in my tomb that I dug for myself in the land of Canaan. There you will bury me.” Now let me go up and bury my father, and then I will return.'”
6 E faraó disse: Sobe, e sepulta a teu pai como ele te fez jurar.
Pharaoh answered, “Go and bury your father, as he made you swear.”
7 E José subiu para sepultar a seu pai: e subiram com ele todos os servos de faraó, os anciãos da sua casa, e todos os anciãos da terra do Egito,
Joseph went up to bury his father. All the officials of Pharaoh went with him—the elders of his household, all the senior officials of the land of Egypt,
8 Como também toda a casa de José, e seus irmãos, e a casa de seu pai: somente deixaram na terra de Gosen os seus meninos e as suas ovelhas, e as suas vacas.
with all Joseph's household and his brothers, and his father's household. But their children, their flocks, and their herds were left in the land of Goshen.
9 E subiram também com ele, tanto carros como gente a cavalo; e o concurso foi grandíssimo.
Chariots and horsemen also went with him. It was a very large group of people.
10 Chegando eles pois à planície do espinhal, que está além do Jordão, fizeram um grande e gravíssimo pranto; e fez a seu pai um grande pranto por sete dias.
When they came to the threshing floor of Atad on the other side of the Jordan, they mourned with very great and grievous sorrow. There Joseph made a seven-day mourning for his father.
11 E vendo os moradores da terra, os cananeus, o luto na planície do espinhal, disseram: É este o pranto grande dos egípcios. Por isso chamou-se o seu nome Abelmizraim, que está além do Jordão.
When the inhabitants of the land, the Canaanites, saw the mourning in the floor of Atad, they said, “This is a very sad occasion for the Egyptians.” That is why the place was called Abel Mizraim, which is beyond the Jordan.
12 E fizeram-lhe os seus filhos assim como ele lhes ordenara,
So his sons did for Jacob just as he had instructed them.
13 Pois os seus filhos o levaram à terra de Canaan, e o sepultaram na cova do campo de Machpela, que Abraão tinha comprado com o campo, por herança de sepultura, de Ephron, o hetheu, em frente de Mamre.
His sons carried him to the land of Canaan and buried him in the cave in the field of Machpelah, near Mamre. Abraham had bought the cave with the field for a burial place. He had bought it from Ephron the Hittite.
14 Depois tornou-se José para o Egito, ele e seus irmãos, e todos os que com ele subiram a sepultar seu pai, depois de haver sepultado seu pai.
After he had buried his father, Joseph returned into Egypt, he, along with his brothers, and all who had accompanied him to bury his father.
15 Vendo então os irmãos de José que seu pai já estava morto, disseram: Porventura nos aborrecerá José, e nos pagará certamente todo o mal que lhe fizemos.
When Joseph's brothers saw that their father was dead, they said, “What if Joseph holds on to anger against us and wants to repay us in full for all the evil we did to him?”
16 Portanto enviaram a José, dizendo: Teu pai mandou, antes da sua morte, dizendo:
So they commanded the presence of Joseph, saying, “Your father gave instructions before he died, saying,
17 Assim direis a José: Perdoa, rogo-te, a transgressão de teus irmãos, e o seu pecado, porque te fizeram mal: agora pois rogamos-te que perdoes a transgressão dos servos do Deus de teu pai. E José chorou quando eles lhe falavam.
'Tell Joseph this, “Please forgive the transgression of your brothers and their sin when they did evil to you.”' Now please forgive the servants of the God of your father.” Joseph wept when they spoke to him.
18 Depois vieram também seus irmãos, e prostraram-se diante dele, e disseram: Eis-nos aqui por teus servos.
His brothers also went and lay facedown before him. They said, “See, we are your servants.”
19 E José lhes disse: Não temais, porque porventura estou eu em lugar de Deus?
But Joseph answered them, “Do not be afraid. Am I in the place of God?
20 Vós bem intentastes mal contra mim, porém Deus o intentou para bem, para fazer como está neste dia, para conservar em vida a um povo grande:
As for you, you meant to harm me, but God meant it for good, to preserve the lives of many people, as you see today.
21 Agora pois não temais: eu vos sustentarei a vós e a vossos meninos. Assim os consolou, e falou segundo o coração deles.
So now do not be afraid. I will provide for you and your little children.” He comforted them in this way and spoke kindly to their hearts.
22 José pois habitou no Egito, ele e a casa de seu pai: e viveu José cento e dez anos,
Joseph lived in Egypt, together with his father's family. He lived one hundred ten years.
23 E viu José os filhos de Ephraim, da terceira geração: também os filhos de Machir, filho de Manasseh, nasceram sobre os joelhos de José.
Joseph saw Ephraim's children to the third generation. He also saw the children of Machir son of Manasseh, who were placed on the knees of Joseph.
24 E disse José a seus irmãos: Eu morro; mas Deus certamente vos visitará, e vos fará subir desta terra à terra que jurou a Abraão, a Isaac e a Jacob
Joseph said to his brothers, “I am about to die; but God will surely come to you and lead you up out of this land to the land which he swore to give to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.”
25 E José fez jurar os filhos de Israel, dizendo: Certamente vos visitará Deus, e fareis transportar os meus ossos daqui.
Then Joseph made the people of Israel swear an oath. He said, “God will surely come to you. At that time you must carry up my bones from here.”
26 E morreu José da idade de cento e dez anos; e o embalsamaram, e o puseram num caixão no Egito.
So Joseph died, 110 years old. They embalmed him and he was placed in a coffin in Egypt.
