< Genesis 50 >
1 At yumakap si Jose sa mukha ng kaniyang ama, at umiyak sa ibabaw niya, at hinalikan niya siya.
Joseph [May he add] fell on his father’s face, wept on him, and kissed him.
2 At iniutos ni Jose sa kaniyang mga lingkod na manggagamot, na embalsamahin ang kaniyang ama: at inembalsama ng mga manggagamot si Israel.
Joseph [May he add] enjoined his servants, the physicians, to embalm his father; and the physicians embalmed Israel [God prevails].
3 At apat na pung araw ang ginanap sa kaniya; sapagka't gayon ginaganap ang mga araw ng pagembalsama; at tinangisan siya ng mga Egipcio ng pitong pung araw.
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 At nang makaraan ang mga araw ng pagiyak sa kaniya ay nagsalita si Jose sa sangbahayan ni Faraon, na sinasabi, Kung ngayo'y nakasumpong ako ng biyaya sa inyong mga mata ay salitain ninyo, isinasamo ko sa inyo, sa mga pakinig ni Faraon, na inyong sabihin,
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 Pinanumpa ako ng ama ko, na sinasabi, Narito, ako'y namamatay: sa libingan na aking hinukay sa akin sa lupain ng Canaan, ay doon mo ako ililibing. Ngayon nga'y pahintulutan ninyo akong umahon, isinasamo ko sa inyo, at aking ilibing ang aking ama, at babalik uli ako.
‘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 At sinabi ni Faraon, Umahon ka, at ilibing mo ang iyong ama, ayon sa kaniyang ipinasumpa sa iyo.
Pharaoh said, “Go up, and bury your father, just like he made you swear.”
7 At umahon si Jose upang ilibing ang kaniyang ama: at kasama niyang umahon ang lahat ng lingkod ni Faraon, ang mga matanda sa kaniyang sangbahayan, at ang lahat na matanda sa lupain ng Egipto;
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 At ang buong sangbahayan ni Jose, at ang kaniyang mga kapatid, at ang sangbahayan ng kaniyang ama: ang kanila lamang mga bata, at ang kanilang mga kawan, at ang kanilang bakahan, ang iniwan nila sa lupain ng Gosen.
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 At umahong kasama niya ang mga karro at mga nangangabayo: at yao'y naging totoong malaking pulutong.
There went up with him both chariots and horsemen. It was a very great company.
10 At sila'y dumating sa giikan ni Atad, na nasa dako pa roon ng Jordan, at doo'y nanaghoy sila ng malakas at kapaitpait na panaghoy: at kaniyang pinanangisan ang kaniyang ama na pitong araw.
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 At nang makita ng mga nananahan sa lupaing yaon, ng mga Cananeo, ang panaghoy sa giikan ni Atad, ay kanilang sinabi, Ito'y isang kahambalhambal na panaghoy ng mga Egipcio kaya't ang pangalang itinawag ay Abel-mizraim, nasa dako pa roon ng Jordan.
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 At ginawa sa kaniya ng kaniyang mga anak ang ayon sa iniutos sa kanila.
His sons did to him just as he enjoined them,
13 Sapagka't dinala siya ng kaniyang mga anak sa lupain ng Canaan, at inilibing siya sa yungib ng Machpela, na binili ni Abraham sangpu ng parang na pinakaaring libingan, kay Ephron na Hetheo, sa tapat ng Mamre.
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 At bumalik si Jose sa Egipto, siya, at ang kaniyang mga kapatid, at ang lahat na umahong kasama niya sa paglilibing sa kaniyang ama, pagkatapos na mailibing ang kaniyang ama.
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 At nang makita ng mga kapatid ni Jose, na ang kanilang ama'y namatay, ay kanilang sinabi, Marahil si Jose ay mapopoot sa atin, at lubos na gagantihin sa atin ang buong kasamaan na ating ginawa sa kaniya.
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 At ipinasabi nila kay Jose, Iniutos ng iyong ama bago namatay, na sinasabi,
They sent a message to Joseph [May he add], saying, “Your father enjoined before he died, saying,
17 Ganito sasabihin ninyo kay Jose. Ipatawad mo, isinasamo ko sa iyo ngayon, ang pagsalangsang ng iyong mga kapatid, at ang kanilang kasalanan; at ngayon, ay aming isinasamo sa iyo, na ipatawad mo ang mga pagsalangsang ng mga lingkod ng Dios ng iyong ama. At si Jose ay umiyak ng kanilang salitain sa kaniya.
‘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 At naparoon ang kaniyang mga kapatid naman at nagpatirapa sa harap niya; at kanilang sinabi, Narito, kaming iyong mga lingkod.
His brothers also went and fell down before his face; and they said, “Behold, we are your servants.”
19 At sinabi ni Jose sa kanila, Huwag kayong matakot, sapagka't nasa kalagayan ba ako ng Dios?
Joseph [May he add] said to them, “Don’t be afraid, for am I in the place of God?
20 At tungkol sa inyo ay inyong ipinalagay na kasamaan laban sa akin; nguni't ipinalagay ng Dios na kabutihan upang mangyari ang gaya sa araw na ito, na iligtas ang buhay ng maraming tao.
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 Kaya nga huwag kayong matakot: aking pakakanin kayo at ang inyong mga bata. At kaniyang inaliw sila at kaniyang pinagsalitaan sila na may kagandahang loob.
Now therefore don’t be afraid. I will nourish you and your little ones.” He comforted them, and spoke kindly to them.
22 At si Jose ay tumahan sa Egipto, siya at ang sangbahayan ng kaniyang ama: at si Jose ay nabuhay na isang daan at sangpung taon.
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 At nakita ni Jose ang mga anak ni Ephraim hanggang sa ikatlong salin ng lahi; ang mga anak man ni Machir na anak ni Manases ay ipinanganak sa mga tuhod ni Jose.
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 At sinabi ni Jose sa kaniyang mga kapatid: Ako'y namamatay: nguni't tunay na dadalawin kayo ng Dios, at dadalhin kayo mula sa lupaing ito hanggang sa lupain na kaniyang isinumpa kay Abraham, kay Isaac at kay Jacob.
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 At ipinasumpa ni Jose sa mga anak ni Israel, na sinasabi, Tunay na dadalawin kayo ng Dios, at inyong iaahon ang aking mga buto mula rito.
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 Sa gayo'y namatay si Jose na may isang daan at sangpung taon: at kanilang inembalsama siya, at siya'y inilagay sa isang kabaong sa Egipto.
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].
