< Genesis 47 >

1 Then Joseph went in and told Pharaoh, and said, “My father and my brothers, with their flocks, their herds, and all that they own, have come out of the land of Canaan; and behold, they are in the land of Goshen.”
Пришед же Иосиф, поведа фараону глаголя: отец мой и братия моя, и скоти и волове их, и вся сущая их приидоша из земли Ханаани: и се, суть в земли Гесем.
2 From amongst his brothers he took five men, and presented them to Pharaoh.
От братий же своих поя пять мужей и постави их пред фараоном.
3 Pharaoh said to his brothers, “What is your occupation?” They said to Pharaoh, “Your servants are shepherds, both we, and our fathers.”
И рече фараон к братиям Иосифовым: что дело ваше? Они же реша фараону: пастуси овчии, раби твои, и мы и отцы наши отдетска и доселе.
4 They also said to Pharaoh, “We have come to live as foreigners in the land, for there is no pasture for your servants’ flocks. For the famine is severe in the land of Canaan. Now therefore, please let your servants dwell in the land of Goshen.”
Рекоша же фараону: обитати в земли приидохом, несть бо пажити скотом раб твоих: одоле бо глад на земли Ханаани: ныне убо да вселимся раби твои в земли Гесем.
5 Pharaoh spoke to Joseph, saying, “Your father and your brothers have come to you.
И рече фараон Иосифу, глаголя: отец твой и братия твоя приидоша к тебе:
6 The land of Egypt is before you. Make your father and your brothers dwell in the best of the land. Let them dwell in the land of Goshen. If you know any able men amongst them, then put them in charge of my livestock.”
се, земля Египетская пред тобою есть: на лучшей земли посели отца твоего и братию твою, да вселятся в земли Гесем: аще же веси, яко суть в них мужие сильнии, постави их старейшины скотом моим. (приидоша же во Египет ко Иосифу Иаков и сынове его: и услыша фараон царь Египетский).
7 Joseph brought in Jacob, his father, and set him before Pharaoh; and Jacob blessed Pharaoh.
Введе же Иосиф Иакова отца своего и постави его пред фараоном, и благослови Иаков фараона.
8 Pharaoh said to Jacob, “How old are you?”
Рече же фараон ко Иакову: колико лет дний жития твоего?
9 Jacob said to Pharaoh, “The years of my pilgrimage are one hundred and thirty years. The days of the years of my life have been few and evil. They have not attained to the days of the years of the life of my fathers in the days of their pilgrimage.”
И рече Иаков фараону: дние лет жития моего, яже обитаю, сто тридесять лет: малы и злы быша дние лет жития моего: не достигоша во дни лет жития отец моих, яже дни обиташа.
10 Jacob blessed Pharaoh, and went out from the presence of Pharaoh.
И благословив Иаков фараона, отиде от него.
11 Joseph placed his father and his brothers, and gave them a possession in the land of Egypt, in the best of the land, in the land of Rameses, as Pharaoh had commanded.
И всели Иосиф отца своего и братию свою, и даде им обдержание в земли Египетстей, на лучшей земли, в земли Рамессийстей, якоже повеле фараон.
12 Joseph provided his father, his brothers, and all of his father’s household with bread, according to the sizes of their families.
И деляше Иосиф пшеницу отцу своему и братии своей и всему дому отца своего по числу лиц.
13 There was no bread in all the land; for the famine was very severe, so that the land of Egypt and the land of Canaan fainted by reason of the famine.
Пшеницы же не бяше во всей земли, одоле бо глад зело: скончавашеся же земля Египетская и земля Ханааня от глада.
14 Joseph gathered up all the money that was found in the land of Egypt, and in the land of Canaan, for the grain which they bought: and Joseph brought the money into Pharaoh’s house.
Собра же Иосиф все сребро обретшееся в земли Египетстей и в земли Ханаани, за пшеницу, юже куповаху, и размеряше им пшеницу, и внесе Иосиф все сребро в дом фараонов.
15 When the money was all spent in the land of Egypt, and in the land of Canaan, all the Egyptians came to Joseph, and said, “Give us bread, for why should we die in your presence? For our money fails.”
И оскуде все сребро от земли Египетския и от земли Ханаанския: приидоша же вси Египтяне ко Иосифу, глаголюще: даждь нам хлебы, и вскую умираем пред тобою? Скончася бо сребро наше.
16 Joseph said, “Give me your livestock; and I will give you food for your livestock, if your money is gone.”
Рече же им Иосиф: пригоните скоты вашя, и дам вам хлебы за скоты вашя, аще скончася сребро ваше.
17 They brought their livestock to Joseph, and Joseph gave them bread in exchange for the horses, and for the flocks, and for the herds, and for the donkeys: and he fed them with bread in exchange for all their livestock for that year.
Пригнаша же скоты своя ко Иосифу, и даде им Иосиф хлебы за кони и за овцы, и за волы и за ослы, и прекорми их хлебами за вся скоты их в том лете.
18 When that year was ended, they came to him the second year, and said to him, “We will not hide from my lord how our money is all spent, and the herds of livestock are my lord’s. There is nothing left in the sight of my lord, but our bodies, and our lands.
Прейде же то лето, и приидоша к нему во второе лето и рекоша ему: да не како погибнем от господина нашего? Аще бо скончася сребро наше, и имение и скоты пред тобою, господине, и не остася нам пред господином нашим, точию едино тело и земля наша:
19 Why should we die before your eyes, both we and our land? Buy us and our land for bread, and we and our land will be servants to Pharaoh. Give us seed, that we may live, and not die, and that the land won’t be desolate.”
да не умрем убо пред тобою, и земля опустеет, купи нас и землю нашу хлебами: и будем мы и земля наша раби фараону: даждь семя, да посеем и живи будем, и не умрем, и земля не опустеет.
20 So Joseph bought all the land of Egypt for Pharaoh, for every man of the Egyptians sold his field, because the famine was severe on them, and the land became Pharaoh’s.
И купи Иосиф всю землю Египетскую фараону: продаша бо Египтяне землю свою фараону, ибо одоле им глад: и бысть земля фараону.
21 As for the people, he moved them to the cities from one end of the border of Egypt even to the other end of it.
И люди поработи ему в рабы, от края предел Египетских даже до краев,
22 Only he didn’t buy the land of the priests, for the priests had a portion from Pharaoh, and ate their portion which Pharaoh gave them. That is why they didn’t sell their land.
кроме земли жреческия токмо, тоя бо не купи Иосиф: даянием бо даде в дар жерцем фараон, и ядяху даяние, еже даде им фараон: сего ради не продаша земли своея.
23 Then Joseph said to the people, “Behold, I have bought you and your land today for Pharaoh. Behold, here is seed for you, and you shall sow the land.
Рече же Иосиф всем Египтяном: се, купих вас и землю вашу днесь фараону: возмите себе семена и сейте на земли:
24 It will happen at the harvests, that you shall give a fifth to Pharaoh, and four parts will be your own, for seed of the field, for your food, for them of your households, and for food for your little ones.”
и будут плоды ея, и да дасте пятую часть фараону, четыри же части будут вам самем в семена земли и на препитание вам и всем сущым в домех ваших.
25 They said, “You have saved our lives! Let us find favour in the sight of my lord, and we will be Pharaoh’s servants.”
И рекоша: оживил ны еси, обретохом благодать пред господином нашим, и будем раби фараону.
26 Joseph made it a statute concerning the land of Egypt to this day, that Pharaoh should have the fifth. Only the land of the priests alone didn’t become Pharaoh’s.
И устави им Иосиф заповедь даже до сего дне на земли Египетстей пятую часть даяти фараону, кроме земли жреческия: та точию не бяше фараоня.
27 Israel lived in the land of Egypt, in the land of Goshen; and they got themselves possessions therein, and were fruitful, and multiplied exceedingly.
Вселися же Израиль в земли Египетстей, на земли Гесем, и наследствоваше ю: и возрастоша, и умножишася зело.
28 Jacob lived in the land of Egypt seventeen years. So the days of Jacob, the years of his life, were one hundred and forty-seven years.
Поживе же Иаков в земли Египетстей седмьнадесять лет: и быша дние Иаковли лет жизни его, сто четыредесять седмь лет.
29 The time came near that Israel must die, and he called his son Joseph, and said to him, “If now I have found favour in your sight, please put your hand under my thigh, and deal kindly and truly with me. Please don’t bury me in Egypt,
Приближишася же дние Израилю еже умрети, и призва сына своего Иосифа и рече ему: аще обретох благодать пред тобою, подложи руку твою под стегно мое и сотвориши надо мною милость и истину, еже не погребсти мене во Египте,
30 but when I sleep with my fathers, you shall carry me out of Egypt, and bury me in their burying place.” Joseph said, “I will do as you have said.”
но да почию со отцы моими: и изнесеши мя из Египта, и погребеши мя во гробе их. Он же рече: аз сотворю по словеси твоему.
31 Israel said, “Swear to me,” and he swore to him. Then Israel bowed himself on the bed’s head.
Рече же: кленися мне. И клятся ему. И поклонися Израиль на конец жезла его.
