< Genesis 50 >

1 Josẹfu sì ṣubú lé baba rẹ̀, ó sọkún, ó sì fẹnukò ó ní ẹnu.
And Joseph fell upon his father's face, and wept on him, and kissed him.
2 Nígbà náà ni Josẹfu pàṣẹ fún àwọn oníṣègùn tí ó wà ní ìkáwọ́ rẹ̀ pé kí wọn kí ó ṣe òkú Israẹli baba rẹ̀ lọ́jọ̀, àwọn oníṣègùn náà sì ṣe bẹ́ẹ̀.
And Joseph commanded his servants the embalmers to embalm his father; and the embalmers embalmed Israel.
3 Fún ogójì ọjọ́ ni wọ́n fi ṣe èyí, nítorí èyí ni àsìkò tí a máa ń fi ṣe ẹ̀ǹbáàmù òkú. Àwọn ará Ejibiti sì ṣọ̀fọ̀ rẹ̀ fún àádọ́rin ọjọ́.
And they fulfilled forty days for him, for so are the days of embalming numbered; and Egypt mourned for him seventy days.
4 Nígbà tí ọjọ́ ìṣọ̀fọ̀ náà kọjá. Josẹfu wí fún àwọn ará ilé Farao pé, “Bí mo bá bá ojúrere yín pàdé, ẹ bá mi sọ fún Farao.
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,
5 ‘Baba mi mú mi búra ó sì wí fún mi pé, “Mo ti fẹ́rẹ kú: sinmi sínú ibojì tí mo gbẹ́ fún ara mi ní ilẹ̀ Kenaani.” Nísinsin yìí, jẹ́ kí n lọ kí n sì sìnkú baba mi, lẹ́yìn náà èmi yóò padà wa.’”
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.
6 Farao wí pé, “Gòkè lọ, kí o sì sin baba rẹ, bí ó tí mú ọ búra.”
And Pharao said to Joseph, Go up, bury your father, as he constrained you to swear.
7 Báyìí ni Josẹfu gòkè lọ láti sìnkú baba rẹ̀. Gbogbo àwọn ìjòyè Farao ni ó sìn ín lọ—àwọn àgbàgbà ilé rẹ̀, àti gbogbo àwọn àgbàgbà ilẹ̀ Ejibiti.
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.
8 Yàtọ̀ fún gbogbo àwọn ará ilé Josẹfu àti ti àwọn arákùnrin rẹ̀ àti àwọn tí ó jẹ́ ilé baba rẹ̀, àwọn ọmọ wọn nìkan àti agbo ẹran pẹ̀lú agbo màlúù ni ó sẹ́ kù ní Goṣeni.
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.
9 Kẹ̀kẹ́-ẹṣin àti àwọn ẹlẹ́ṣin pẹ̀lú gòkè lọ. Àìmoye ènìyàn ni ó lọ.
And there went up with him also chariots and horsemen; and there was a very great company.
10 Nígbà tí wọ́n dé ilẹ̀ ìpakà Atadi, ní ẹ̀bá Jordani, wọn pohùnréré ẹkún, níbẹ̀ ni Josẹfu sì tún dúró ṣọ̀fọ̀ baba rẹ̀ fún ọjọ́ méje.
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.
11 Nígbà tí àwọn ará Kenaani tí ń gbé níbẹ̀ rí i bí wọ́n ti ń ṣọ̀fọ̀ náà ni ilẹ̀ ìpakà Atadi, wọ́n wí pé, “Ọ̀fọ̀ ńlá ni àwọn ará Ejibiti ń ṣe yìí.” Ìdí èyí ni a fi ń pe ibẹ̀ ní Abeli-Misraimu. Kò sì jìnnà sí Jordani.
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.
12 Báyìí ni àwọn ọmọ Jakọbu ṣe ohun tí baba wọn pàṣẹ fún wọn.
And thus his sons did to him.
13 Wọ́n gbé e lọ sí ilẹ̀ Kenaani, wọ́n sì sin ín sínú ihò àpáta tí ó wà ní oko Makpela, ní tòsí i Mamre tí Abrahamu rà gẹ́gẹ́ bí ilẹ̀ ìsìnkú lọ́wọ́ Efroni ará Hiti, pẹ̀lú ilẹ̀ náà.
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.
14 Lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí ó ti sìnkú baba rẹ̀ tan, Josẹfu padà sí Ejibiti pẹ̀lú àwọn arákùnrin rẹ̀ àti àwọn mìíràn tí ó tẹ̀lé e lọ láti sin baba rẹ̀.
And Joseph returned to Egypt, he and his brethren, and those that had gone up with him to bury his father.
15 Nígbà tí àwọn arákùnrin Josẹfu rí i pé baba wọn kú, wọ́n wí fún ara wọn pé, “Ǹjẹ́ bí ó bá ṣe pé Josẹfu ṣì fi wá sínú ń kọ́, tí ó sì fẹ́ gbẹ̀san gbogbo aburú tí a ti ṣe sí i?”
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.
16 Nítorí náà wọ́n ránṣẹ́ sí Josẹfu wí pé, “Baba rẹ fi àṣẹ yìí sílẹ̀ kí ó tó lọ wí pé,
And they came to Joseph, and said, Your father adjured [us] before his death, saying,
17 ‘Èyí ni kí ẹ̀yin kí ó sọ fún Josẹfu, mo bẹ̀ ọ́ kí o dáríjì àwọn arákùnrin rẹ, gbogbo ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ àti aburú tí wọ́n ṣe sí ọ, èyí tí ó mú ibi bá ọ’. Nísinsin yìí, jọ̀wọ́ dárí ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ àwọn ìránṣẹ́ Ọlọ́run baba rẹ jì wọ́n.” Nígbà tí iṣẹ́ ti wọ́n rán dé ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ̀, Josẹfu sọkún.
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.
18 Àwọn arákùnrin rẹ̀ wá, wọ́n sì wólẹ̀ níwájú rẹ̀, wọ́n wí pé, “Ẹrú rẹ ni a jẹ́.”
And they came to him and said, We, these [persons], are your servants.
19 Ṣùgbọ́n Josẹfu wí fún wọn pé, “Ẹ má ṣe bẹ̀rù, èmi ha wà ní ipò Ọlọ́run bí?
And Joseph said to them, Fear not, for I am God's.
20 Bí ó tilẹ̀ jẹ́ pé ẹ gbèrò láti ṣe mi ní ibi, ṣùgbọ́n Ọlọ́run gbèrò láti fi ṣe rere tí ń ṣe lọ́wọ́ yìí; ni gbígba ẹ̀mí ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ ènìyàn là.
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.
21 Nítorí náà, ẹ má ṣe bẹ̀rù. Èmi yóò pèsè fún ẹ̀yin àti àwọn ọmọ yín.” Ó tún fi wọ́n lọ́kàn balẹ̀, ó sì sọ ọ̀rọ̀ rere fun wọn.
And he said to them, Fear not, I will maintain you, and your families: and he comforted them, and spoke kindly to them.
22 Josẹfu sì ń gbé ní Ejibiti pẹ̀lú gbogbo ìdílé baba rẹ̀. Ó sì wà láààyè fún àádọ́fà ọdún.
And Joseph lived in Egypt, he and his brethren, and all the family of his father; and Joseph lived a hundred and ten years.
23 Ó sì rí ìran kẹta ọmọ Efraimu-Àwọn ọmọ Makiri, ọmọkùnrin Manase ni a sì gbé le eékún Josẹfu nígbà tí ó bí wọn.
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.
24 Nígbà náà ni Josẹfu wí fún àwọn arákùnrin rẹ̀ pé, “Mo ti fẹ́rẹ kú, ṣùgbọ́n dájúdájú Ọlọ́run yóò wá sí ìrànlọ́wọ́ yín, yóò sì mú un yín jáde kúrò ní ilẹ̀ yìí lọ sí ilẹ̀ tí ó ti ṣèlérí ní ìbúra fún Abrahamu, Isaaki àti Jakọbu.”
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.
25 Josẹfu sì mú kí àwọn ọmọ Israẹli búra májẹ̀mú kan wí pé, “Dájúdájú Ọlọ́run yóò wá sí ìrànlọ́wọ́ yín, nígbà náà ni ẹ gbọdọ̀ kó egungun mi lọ́wọ́ kúrò ní ìhín.”
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.
26 Báyìí ni Josẹfu kú nígbà tí ó pé àádọ́fà ọdún. Lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí wọ́n ṣe òkú rẹ̀ lọ́jọ̀ tan, a gbé e sí inú pósí ní Ejibiti.
And Joseph died, aged an hundred and ten years; and they prepared his corpse, and put him in a coffin in Egypt.
