Genesis 47
1 Joseph chose five of his [older] brothers to go with him to talk to the king. He introduced his [older] brothers to the king, and then he said, “My father and my [older] brothers [and younger brother] have come from the Canaan region. They have brought all their sheep and goats and cattle and everything else that they own, and they are living now in Goshen region.”
Kalpasanna, napan ni Jose ket imbagana iti Faraon, “Simmangpet ti amak, ken dagiti kakabsatko, dagiti arbanda ken amin a kukuada manipud iti daga ti Canaan. Addada ita idiay daga ti Gosen.”
Insurotna ti lima kadagiti kakabsatna ket inyam-ammona ida iti Faraon.
3 The king asked the brothers, “What work do you do?” They replied, “We are shepherds, just as our ancestors were.”
Kinuna ti Faraon kadagiti kakabsatna, “Ania ti trabahoyo?” Kinunada iti Faraon, “Agpaspastor dagiti adipenmo, kas kadagiti kapuonanmi.”
4 They also said to him, “We have come here to live for a while in this land, because the famine is very severe in Canaan, and our animals have no (pasture/grass to eat) there. So now, please let us live in the Goshen region.”
Ket kinunada iti Faraon, “Immaykami kas saan nga agpaut nga agnaed iti daga. Awan ti pagpastoran para kadagiti arban dagiti adipenmo, gapu ta nakaro unay ti panagbisin iti daga ti Canaan. Isu nga ita, pangaasim ta palubosam nga agnaed dagiti adipenmo iti daga ti Gosen.”
5 The king said to Joseph, “I am happy that your father and your [older] brothers [and younger brother] have come to you.
Kalpasanna, nagsao ti Faraon kenni Jose, kunana, “Immay ti amam ken dagiti kakabsatmo kenka.
6 They can live wherever you want in the whole country of Egypt. Give your father and your brothers the best part of the land. They can live in Goshen. And if you know that any of them have any special ability to work with livestock, have them be in charge of my own livestock, too.”
Adda iti sangoanam ti daga ti Egipto. Pagnaedem ti amam ken dagiti kakabsatmo a lallaki iti kasayaatan a rehion, ti daga ti Gosen. No adda ammom a siasinoman a lallaki nga addaan iti kabaelan kadakuada, isaadmo ida nga agaywan kadagiti dingwenko.”
7 Then Joseph brought his father Jacob [into the palace] and introduced him to the king. Jacob asked God to bless the king.
Kalpasanna, intugot ni Jose ni Jacob nga amana ket imparangna iti Faraon. Binendisionan ni Jacob ti Faraon.
8 Then the king asked Jacob, “How old are you?”
Kinuna ti Faraon kenni Jacob, “Kasanon kaatiddug ti panagbiagmo?”
9 Jacob replied, “I have been traveling around for 130 years. I have not lived as long as my ancestors, but my life has been full of troubles.”
Kinuna ni Jacob iti Faraon, “130 dagiti tawen a panagdaldaliasatko. Bassit laeng ken nakas-ang dagiti tawen ti panagbiagko. Saan nga atiddug a kas iti kaatiddug ti panagbiag dagiti kapuonak.”
10 Then Jacob again [asked God to] bless the king, and left him.
Kalpasanna, binendisionan ni Jacob ti Faraon ket pimmanaw iti sangoananna.
11 [That is how Joseph enabled his father and older] brothers [and younger brother] to start living in Egypt. As the king had commanded, he gave them property in the best part of the land, in [Goshen, which is now called] Rameses.
Kalpasanna, inaywanan ni Jose ti amana ken dagiti kakabsatna. Inikkanna ida ti masakupan iti daga ti Egipto, ti kasasayaatan iti daga, iti daga ti Rameses, kas imbilin ti Faraon.
12 Joseph also provided food for all his father’s family. The amounts that he gave them were according to how many children each of them had.
Nangipaay ni Jose iti taraon a maipaay iti amana, kadagiti kakabsatna, ken amin a sangkabalayan ti amana, segun iti bilang dagiti bibiagenda.
13 There were no crops growing in the whole region, because the famine was very severe. The people of Egypt and Canaan [MTY] became weak because they did not have enough food to eat.
Ita, awan taraon iti amin a daga; ta nakaro unay ti panagbisin. Nakakaasi ti daga ti Egipto ken ti daga ti Canaan gapu iti panagbisin.
14 Joseph collected all the money that the people in Egypt and Canaan paid for the grain they were buying from him, and he brought the money to the king’s palace.
Inurnong ni Jose ti amin a kuarta nga adda iti daga ti Egipto ken iti daga ti Canaan, babaen ti panaglaklakona iti trigo kadagiti agnanaed. Ket impan ni Jose ti kuarta iti palasio ti Faraon.
15 When the people of Egypt and Canaan had spent all their money for grain, they all kept coming to Joseph and saying, “Please give us some food! If you do not give us grain, we will die [RHQ]! We have used all our money to buy food, and we have no money left!”
Idi naibusen ti amin a kuarta dagiti daga ti Egipto ken Canaan, immay amin a taga-Egipto kenni Jose a kunkunada, “Ikkandakami iti taraon! Rumbeng kadi a mataykami lattan iti imatangmo gapu ta naibusen ti kuartami?”
16 Joseph replied, “Since your money is all gone, bring me your livestock. If you do that, I will give you food in exchange for your livestock.”
Kinuna ni Jose, “No naibusen ti kuartayo, iyegyo dagiti tarakenyo ket ikkankayonto iti taraon a kas sukat dagiti tarakenyo.”
17 So they brought their livestock to Joseph. He gave them food in exchange for their horses, their sheep and goats, their cattle, and their donkeys.
Inyegda ngarud kenni Jose dagiti tarakenda. Inikkan ida ni Jose iti taraon a kas sukat dagiti kabalio, dagiti arban, ken dagiti asno. Pinakanna ida iti tinapay a kas sukat ti amin a tarakenda iti dayta a tawen.
18 The next year they came to him again and said, “We cannot hide this from you: We have no more money, and now our livestock belongs to you. We have only our bodies and our land to give to you. We have nothing else left.
Idi agleppasen dayta a tawen, napanda kenkuana iti sumaruno a tawen ket kinunada kenkuana, “Saanmi nga ilimed iti apomi a naibusen ti kuartami, ken kukuan ti apomi dagiti tarakenmi. Awanen a pulos ti nabati iti imatang ti apomi, malaksid kadagiti bagimi ken dagami.
19 (If you do not give us some food, we will die!/Do you want to watch us die?) [RHQ] If you do not give us seeds, our fields will become useless [IDM]. Buy us and our land in exchange for food. Then we will be the king’s slaves, and he will own the land. Give us seeds that we can plant and grow food, in order that we will not die, and in order that our land will not become like a desert.”
Rumbeng kadi a mataykami lattan iti sangoanam, dakami ken ti dagami? Gatangendakami ken ti dagami a kas kasukat iti taraon, ket agbalinkaminto nga adipen ti Faraon, dakami ken ti dagami. Ikkandakami iti bukel tapno agbiagkami a saan ket a matay, ken tapno saan koma nga agbalin a langalang ti daga.”
20 So Joseph bought all the farms in Egypt for the king. The people of Egypt each sold their land to him because the famine was very severe, [and they had no other way to get money to buy food]. So all the farms became the king’s farms.
Ginatang ngarud amin ni Jose ti amin a daga iti Egipto para iti Faraon. Ta inlako ti tunggal Egipcio ti talonna, gapu ta nakaro unay ti panagbisin. Iti kastoy a wagas, nagbalin a kukua ti Faraon ti daga.
21 As a result, Joseph caused all the people from one border of the country to the other to become the king’s slaves.
No maipanggep met kadagiti tattao, pinagbalinna ida a tagabu manipud iti pagpatinggaan ti beddeng ti Egipto agingga iti kasumbangir a pagpatinggaan.
22 But he did not buy the priests’ land, because they received food from the king regularly, so the food that the king gave them was enough for them. That is the reason they did not sell their land to him.
Ti laeng daga dagiti papadi ti saan a ginatang ni Jose, gapu ta naikkan dagiti papadi iti abasto. Nanganda manipud iti bingay nga it-ited ti Faraon kadakuada. Isu a saanda nga inlako ti dagada.
23 Joseph said to the people [who sold themselves and their land to him], “Listen to me! Today I have bought you and your land for the king. So here are seeds for you so that you can plant them in the ground.
Kalpasanna, kinuna ni Jose kadagiti tattao, “Kitaenyo, ginatangkayo ken ti dagayo ita para iti Faraon. Ita, adtoy ti bukel para kadakayo, ket mulaanyonto ti daga.
24 But when you harvest the crop, you must give one-fifth of the crop to the king. The rest of the crop you can keep, to be seed to plant in the fields, and to be food for you and your children and for everyone else in your household to eat.”
Iti panagaapit, masapul nga itedyo ti apagkalima iti Faraon ket kukuayonto ti uppat a paset, mausar daytoy kas bin-i para iti talon ken taraon dagiti sangkabalayanyo ken dagiti annakyo.”
25 They replied, “You have saved our lives! We want you to be pleased with us. And we will be the king’s slaves.”
Kinunada, “Inispalmo dagiti biagmi. Makasarakkami koma iti pabor kadagiti matam. Agbalinkami nga ad-adipen ti Faraon.”
26 So Joseph made a law about all the land in Egypt, stating that one-fifth of the crops that are harvested belongs to the king. That law still exists. Only the land that belonged to the priests did not become the king’s land.
Inaramid ngarud daytoy ni Jose a linteg a maipatpatungpal iti daga ti Egipto agingga kadagitoy nga aldaw, a kukua ti Faraon ti apagkalima. Ti laeng daga dagiti papadi ti saan a nagbalin a kukua ti Faraon.
27 Jacob and his family started to live in Egypt, in the Goshen region. They acquired property there. Many children were born to them there. As a result, their population increased greatly.
Nagnaed ngarud ni Israel iti daga ti Egipto, iti daga ti Gosen. Nakagun-od dagiti tattaona kadagiti sanikua sadiay. Nagbunga ken immaduda iti kasta unay.
28 Jacob lived in Egypt 17 years. Altogether he lived 147 years.
Nagnaed ni Jacob iti daga ti Egipto iti sangapulo ket pito a tawen, isu a sangagasut uppat a pulo ket pito ti tawen ti panagbiag ni Jacob.
29 When it was almost time for him to die, he summoned his son Joseph and said to him, “If I have pleased you, make a solemn promise that you will be kind to me and faithfully do what I am now asking you: When I die, do not bury me here in Egypt.
Idi umadanin ti tiempo nga ipapatay ni Israel, inayabanna ni Jose nga anakna ket kinunana kenkuana, “No nakasarakak ita ti pabor iti imatangmo, ikabilmo ta imam iti sirok ti luppok, ket ipakitam kaniak iti kinapudno ken kinamapagtalkan. Pangaasim ta saannak nga itabon ditoy Egipto.
30 Instead, take my body out of Egypt, and bury it in Canaan where my ancestors are buried.” Joseph replied, “I will do that.”
Inton pumusayak, ipanawnakto iti Egipto ket itabonnak iti disso a nakaitaneman dagiti ammak.” Kinuna ni Jose, “Aramidekto ti kas iti imbagam.”
31 Jacob said, “(Swear/Solemnly promise) to me that you will do it!” So Joseph swore to do it. Then Jacob turned over in bed, bowed his head, and worshiped God.
Kinuna ni Israel, “Agsapataka kaniak,” ket nagsapata ni Jose kenkuana. Kalpasanna, nagdumog ni Israel iti uloanan ti pagiddaanna.
