فَوَقَعَ يُوسُفُ عَلَى وَجْهِ أَبِيهِ وَبَكَى عَلَيْهِ وَقَبَّلَهُ. ١ 1
And Joseph fell upon his father's face, and wept on him, and kissed him.
وَأَمَرَ يُوسُفُ عَبِيدَهُ ٱلْأَطِبَّاءَ أَنْ يُحَنِّطُوا أَبَاهُ. فَحَنَّطَ ٱلْأَطِبَّاءُ إِسْرَائِيلَ. ٢ 2
And Joseph commanded his servants the embalmers to embalm his father; and the embalmers embalmed Israel.
وَكَمُلَ لَهُ أَرْبَعُونَ يَوْمًا، لِأَنَّهُ هَكَذَا تَكْمُلُ أَيَّامُ ٱلْمُحَنَّطِينَ. وَبَكَى عَلَيْهِ ٱلْمِصْرِيُّونَ سَبْعِينَ يَوْمًا. ٣ 3
And they fulfilled forty days for him, for so are the days of embalming numbered; and Egypt mourned for him seventy days.
وَبَعْدَ مَا مَضَتْ أَيَّامُ بُكَائِهِ كَلَّمَ يُوسُفُ بَيْتَ فِرْعَوْنَ قَائِلًا: «إِنْ كُنْتُ قَدْ وَجَدْتُ نِعْمَةً فِي عُيُونِكُمْ، فَتَكَلَّمُوا فِي مَسَامِعِ فِرْعَوْنَ قَائِلِينَ: ٤ 4
And when the days of mourning were past, Joseph spoke to the princes of Pharao, saying, If I have found favor in your sight, speak concerning me in the ears of Pharao, saying,
أَبِي ٱسْتَحْلَفَنِي قَائِلًا: هَا أَنَا أَمُوتُ. فِي قَبْرِيَ ٱلَّذِي حَفَرْتُ لِنَفْسِي فِي أَرْضِ كَنْعَانَ هُنَاكَ تَدْفِنُنِي، فَٱلْآنَ أَصْعَدُ لِأَدْفِنَ أَبِي وَأَرْجِعُ». ٥ 5
My father adjured me, saying, In the sepulchre which I dug for myself in the land of Chanaan, there you shall bury me; now then I will go up and bury my father, and return again.
فَقَالَ فِرْعَوْنُ: «ٱصْعَدْ وَٱدْفِنْ أَبَاكَ كَمَا ٱسْتَحْلَفَكَ». ٦ 6
And Pharao said to Joseph, Go up, bury your father, as he constrained you to swear.
فَصَعِدَ يُوسُفُ لِيَدْفِنَ أَبَاهُ، وَصَعِدَ مَعَهُ جَمِيعُ عَبِيدِ فِرْعَوْنَ، شُيُوخُ بَيْتِهِ وَجَمِيعُ شُيُوخِ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ، ٧ 7
So Joseph went up to bury his father; and all the servants of Pharao went up with him, and the elders of his house, and all the elders of the land of Egypt.
وَكُلُّ بَيْتِ يُوسُفَ وَإِخْوَتُهُ وَبَيْتُ أَبِيهِ، غَيْرَ أَنَّهُمْ تَرَكُوا أَوْلَادَهُمْ وَغَنَمَهُمْ وَبَقَرَهُمْ فِي أَرْضِ جَاسَانَ. ٨ 8
And all the household of Joseph, and his brethren, and all the house of his father, and his kindred; and they left behind the sheep and the oxen in the land of Gesem.
وَصَعِدَ مَعَهُ مَرْكَبَاتٌ وَفُرْسَانٌ، فَكَانَ ٱلْجَيْشُ كَثِيرًا جِدًّا. ٩ 9
And there went up with him also chariots and horsemen; and there was a very great company.
فَأَتَوْا إِلَى بَيْدَرِ أَطَادَ ٱلَّذِي فِي عَبْرِ ٱلْأُرْدُنِّ وَنَاحُوا هُنَاكَ نَوْحًا عَظِيمًا وَشَدِيدًا جِدًّا، وَصَنَعَ لِأَبِيهِ مَنَاحَةً سَبْعَةَ أَيَّامٍ. ١٠ 10
And they came to the threshing floor of Atad, which is beyond Jordan; and they bewailed him with a great and very sore lamentation; and he made a mourning for his father seven days.
فَلَمَّا رَأَى أَهْلُ ٱلْبِلَادِ ٱلْكَنْعَانِيُّونَ ٱلْمَنَاحَةَ فِي بَيْدَرِ أَطَادَ قَالُوا: «هَذِهِ مَنَاحَةٌ ثَقِيلَةٌ لِلْمِصْرِيِّينَ». لِذَلِكَ دُعِيَ ٱسْمُهُ «آبَلَ مِصْرَايِمَ». ٱلَّذِي فِي عَبْرِ ٱلْأُرْدُنِّ. ١١ 11
And the inhabitants of the land of Chanaan saw the mourning at the floor of Atad, and said, This is a great mourning to the Egyptians; therefore he called its name, The mourning of Egypt, which is beyond Jordan.
وَفَعَلَ لَهُ بَنُوهُ هَكَذَا كَمَا أَوْصَاهُمْ: ١٢ 12
And thus his sons did to him.
حَمَلَهُ بَنُوهُ إِلَى أَرْضِ كَنْعَانَ وَدَفَنُوهُ فِي مَغَارَةِ حَقْلِ ٱلْمَكْفِيلَةِ، ٱلَّتِي ٱشْتَرَاهَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ مَعَ ٱلْحَقْلِ مُلْكَ قَبْرٍ مِنْ عِفْرُونَ ٱلْحِثِّيِ أَمَامَ مَمْرَا. ١٣ 13
So his sons carried him up into the land of Chanaan, and buried him in the double cave, which cave Abraam bought for possession of a burying place, of Ephrom the Chettite, before Mambre.
ثُمَّ رَجَعَ يُوسُفُ إِلَى مِصْرَ هُوَ وَإِخْوَتُهُ وَجَمِيعُ ٱلَّذِينَ صَعِدُوا مَعَهُ لِدَفْنِ أَبِيهِ بَعْدَ مَا دَفَنَ أَبَاهُ. ١٤ 14
And Joseph returned to Egypt, he and his brethren, and those that had gone up with him to bury his father.
وَلَمَّا رَأَى إِخْوَةُ يُوسُفَ أَنَّ أَبَاهُمْ قَدْ مَاتَ، قَالُوا: «لَعَلَّ يُوسُفَ يَضْطَهِدُنَا وَيَرُدُّ عَلَيْنَا جَمِيعَ ٱلشَّرِّ ٱلَّذِي صَنَعْنَا بِهِ». ١٥ 15
And when the brethren of Joseph saw that their father was dead, they said, [Let us take heed], lest at any time Joseph remember evil against us, and recompense to us all the evils which we have done against him.
فَأَوَصَوْا إِلَى يُوسُفَ قَائِلِينَ: «أَبُوكَ أَوْصَى قَبْلَ مَوْتِهِ قَائِلًا: ١٦ 16
And they came to Joseph, and said, Your father adjured [us] before his death, saying,
هَكَذَا تَقُولُونَ لِيُوسُفَ: آهِ! ٱصْفَحْ عَنْ ذَنْبِ إِخْوَتِكَ وَخَطِيَّتِهِمْ، فَإِنَّهُمْ صَنَعُوا بِكَ شَرًّا. فَٱلْآنَ ٱصْفَحْ عَنْ ذَنْبِ عَبِيدِ إِلَهِ أَبِيكَ». فَبَكَى يُوسُفُ حِينَ كَلَّمُوهُ. ١٧ 17
Thus say you to Joseph, Forgive them their injustice and their sin, forasmuch as they have done you evil; and now pardon the injustice of the servants of the God of your father. And Joseph wept while they spoke to him.
وَأَتَى إِخْوَتُهُ أَيْضًا وَوَقَعُوا أَمَامَهُ وَقَالُوا: «هَا نَحْنُ عَبِيدُكَ». ١٨ 18
And they came to him and said, We, these [persons], are your servants.
فَقَالَ لَهُمْ يُوسُفُ: «لَا تَخَافُوا. لِأَنَّهُ هَلْ أَنَا مَكَانَ ٱللهِ؟ ١٩ 19
And Joseph said to them, Fear not, for I am God's.
أَنْتُمْ قَصَدْتُمْ لِي شَرًّا، أَمَّا ٱللهُ فَقَصَدَ بِهِ خَيْرًا، لِكَيْ يَفْعَلَ كَمَا ٱلْيَوْمَ، لِيُحْيِيَ شَعْبًا كَثِيرًا. ٢٠ 20
You took counsel against me for evil, but God took counsel for me for good, that [the matter] might be as [it is] today, and much people might be fed.
فَٱلْآنَ لَا تَخَافُوا. أَنَا أَعُولُكُمْ وَأَوْلَادَكُمْ». فَعَزَّاهُمْ وَطَيَّبَ قُلُوبَهُمْ. ٢١ 21
And he said to them, Fear not, I will maintain you, and your families: and he comforted them, and spoke kindly to them.
وَسَكَنَ يُوسُفُ فِي مِصْرَ هُوَ وَبَيْتُ أَبِيهِ، وَعَاشَ يُوسُفُ مِئَةً وَعَشَرَ سِنِينَ. ٢٢ 22
And Joseph lived in Egypt, he and his brethren, and all the family of his father; and Joseph lived a hundred and ten years.
وَرَأَى يُوسُفُ لِأَفْرَايِمَ أَوْلَادَ ٱلْجِيلِ ٱلثَّالِثِ. وَأَوْلَادُ مَاكِيرَ بْنِ مَنَسَّى أَيْضًا وُلِدُوا عَلَى رُكْبَتَيْ يُوسُفَ. ٢٣ 23
And Joseph saw the children of Ephraim to the third generation; and the sons of Machir the son of Manasse were borne on the sides of Joseph.
وَقَالَ يُوسُفُ لِإِخْوَتِهِ: «أَنَا أَمُوتُ، وَلَكِنَّ ٱللهَ سَيَفْتَقِدُكُمْ وَيُصْعِدُكُمْ مِنْ هَذِهِ ٱلْأَرْضِ إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّتِي حَلَفَ لِإِبْرَاهِيمَ وَإِسْحَاقَ وَيَعْقُوبَ». ٢٤ 24
And Joseph spoke to his brethren, saying, I die, and God will surely visit you, and will bring you out of this land to the land concerning which God sware to our fathers, Abraam, Isaac, and Jacob.
وَٱسْتَحْلَفَ يُوسُفُ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ قَائِلًا: «ٱللهُ سَيَفْتَقِدُكُمْ فَتُصْعِدُونَ عِظَامِي مِنْ هُنَا». ٢٥ 25
And Joseph adjured the sons of Israel, saying, At the visitation with which God shall visit you, then you shall carry up my bones hence with you.
ثُمَّ مَاتَ يُوسُفُ وَهُوَ ٱبْنُ مِئَةٍ وَعَشَرِ سِنِينَ، فَحَنَّطُوهُ وَوُضِعَ فِي تَابُوتٍ فِي مِصْرَ. ٢٦ 26
And Joseph died, aged an hundred and ten years; and they prepared his corpse, and put him in a coffin in Egypt.
