1 Мојсијева 50

1 Тада Јосиф паде на лице оцу свом, и плака над њим целујући га.

Then Joseph hugged his father's face, and wept over him, and kissed him.

2 И заповеди Јосиф слугама својим лекарима да мирисима помажу оца његовог; и лекари помазаше мирисима Израиља.

Joseph commanded his servants the physicians to embalm his father. So the physicians embalmed Israel.

3 И наврши му се четрдесет дана, јер толико дана треба оним које помажу мирисима; и плакаше за њим Мисирци седамдесет дана.

Forty days were required for it, for that is how many the days it takes for embalming. The Egyptians mourned for him for seventy days.

4 А кад прођоше жалосни дани, рече Јосиф домашњима Фараоновим говорећи: Ако сам нашао милост пред вама, говорите Фараону и реците:

When the days for mourning for him had passed, Joseph spoke to the house of Pharaoh, saying, "If now I have found favor in your sight, please speak in the ears of Pharaoh, saying,

5 Отац ме је мој заклео говорећи: Ево, ја ћу скоро умрети; у гробу мом, који ископах у земљи хананској, онде ме погреби. Па сада да идем да погребем оца свог, а после ћу опет доћи.

'My father made me take an oath, saying, "Look, I am dying. Bury me in the tomb that I dug for myself in the land of Canaan." Now therefore, please let me go up and bury my father, and I will return again.'"

6 А Фараон му рече: Иди, погреби оца свог како те је заклео.

And Pharaoh said, "Go up, and bury your father, in keeping with your oath."

7 И отиде Јосиф да погребе оца свог; и с њим пођоше све слуге Фараонове, старешине од дома његовог и све старешине од земље мисирске.

So Joseph went up to bury his father, and all the officials of Pharaoh went up with him, the elders of his household, and all the elders of the land of Egypt,

8 И сав дом Јосифов и браћа његова и дом оца његовог; само децу своју и овце своје и говеда своја оставише у земљи гесемској.

all the household of Joseph, his brothers, and his father's household. Only their little ones, and their flocks, and their herds, they left in the land of Goshen.

9 А пође с њим кола и коњаника толико да беше војска врло велика.

And there went up with him both chariots and horsemen. It was a very large company.

10 А кад дођоше на гумно Атадово, које је с оне стране Јордана, плакаше онде много и врло тужно; и Јосиф учини жалост за оцем својим за седам дана.

Then they came to the threshing floor of Atad which is across the Jordan, and they mourned there with a great and very bitter lamentation. And he observed seven days of mourning for his father.

11 А људи из оне земље, Хананејци, кад видеше плач на гумну Атадовом, рекоше: У великој су жалости Мисирци. Зато прозваше оно место с оне стране Јордана Жалост мисирска.

When the inhabitants of the land, the Canaanites, saw the mourning at the threshing floor of Atad, they said, "This is a deep mourning by the Egyptians." Therefore, its name was called Abel Mizraim, which is across the Jordan.

12 И учинише му синови његови како им беше заповедио.

So his sons did to him just as he commanded them,

13 Однесоше га синови његови у земљу хананску, и погребоше га у пећини на њиви макпелској, коју купи Аврам да има свој гроб у Ефрона Хетејина према Мамрији.

for his sons carried him into the land of Canaan and buried him in the cave of the field of Machpelah near Mamre, which Abraham bought along with the field as a burial site from Ephron the Hethite.

14 И погребавши оца свог врати се Јосиф у Мисир и браћа његова и сви који беху изашли с њим да погребу оца његовог.

Then after he had buried his father, Joseph returned to Egypt, he and his brothers and all that went up with him to bury his father.

15 А браћа Јосифова видећи где им отац умре, рекоше: Може бити да се Јосиф срди на нас, па ће нам се осветити за све зло што му учинисмо.

When Joseph's brothers saw that their father was dead, they said, "It may be that Joseph will hate us, and will pay us back in full for all of the evil that we did to him."

16 Зато поручише Јосифу: Отац твој заповеди на самрти и рече:

So they sent a message to Joseph, saying, "Your father gave this command before he died, saying,

17 Овако кажите Јосифу: Молим те, опрости браћи својој безакоње и грех, што ти пакостише; сада опрости безакоње слугама Бога оца твог. А Јосиф заплака се кад му то рекоше.

Thus you are to tell Joseph, "Now please forgive the transgression of your brothers and their sin, because they did evil to you."' And now, please forgive the transgression of the servants of the God of your father." And Joseph wept when they spoke to him.

18 После дођоше и браћа његова и падоше пред њим и рекоше: Ево смо слуге твоје.

Then his brothers also went and fell down in front of him, and they said, "Look, we are your slaves."

19 А Јосиф им рече: Не бојте се, зар сам ја место Бога?

But Joseph said to them, "Do not be afraid, for am I in the place of God?

20 Ви сте мислили зло по ме, али је Бог мислио добро, да учини шта се данас збива, да се сачува у животу многи народ.

As for you, you meant evil against me, but God turned it into good in order to bring about this present result, to save the lives of many people.

21 Не бојте се дакле; ја ћу хранити вас и вашу децу. Тако их утеши и ослободи.

So therefore, do not be afraid. I will provide for you and your little ones." And he consoled them and spoke kindly to them.

22 Тако живљаше Јосиф у Мисиру с домом оца свог, и поживе сто и десет година.

So Joseph lived in Egypt, he, and his father's household. And Joseph lived one hundred ten years.

23 И виде Јосиф синове Јефремове до трећег колена; и синови Махира сина Манасијиног родише се и одрастоше на коленима Јосифовим.

Joseph saw Ephraim's descendants to the third generation. The children also of Makir, the son of Manasseh, were counted as Joseph's own.

24 И рече Јосиф браћи својој: Ја ћу скоро умрети; али ће вас зацело Бог походити, и извешће вас из ове земље у земљу за коју се заклео Авраму, Исаку и Јакову.

And Joseph said to his brothers, "I am about to die, but God will surely take care of you and bring you up out of this land to the land which he promised to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob."

25 И закле Јосиф синове Израиљеве и рече: Заиста ће вас походити Бог; а ви онда однесите кости моје одавде.

Then Joseph made the sons of Israel take an oath, saying, "God will surely take care of you. Then you must carry up my bones from here."

26 Потом умре Јосиф, а беше му сто и десет година; и помазавши га мирисима метнуше га у ковчег у Мисиру.

So Joseph died, being one hundred ten years old, and they embalmed him and placed him in a coffin in Egypt.
