< Genesis 50 >

1 Joseph leaned close to his father’s face and cried over him and kissed him.
Ket inarakup ni Jose ti rupa ti amana, sinangitanna ken inagkanna isuna.
2 Joseph commanded his servants who were morticians to (embalm his father’s body/put spices on his father’s body) to (preserve it/keep it from decaying), and then wrap it with strips of cloth.
Binilin ni Jose dagiti adipenna a mangngagas a balsamoenda ti amana. Isu a binalsamo dagiti mangngagas ni Israel.
3 So the morticians did that. It took 40 days to embalm Jacob’s body, because that is the amount of time that was always required for them to embalm a body. And the people of Egypt mourned for 70 days because of Jacob’s death.
Inaramidda daytoy iti uppat a pulo nga aldaw, ta dayta iti naan-anay a bilang ti aldaw a panangbalsamo. Sinangitan isuna dagiti Egipcio iti pitopulo nga aldaw.
4 When the time of mourning was finished, Joseph said to the king’s officials, “If you are pleased with me, please take this message to the king:
Idi nalpasen dagiti aldaw ti panagsangsangit, nakisarita ni Jose kadagiti opisial ti Faraon a kunana, “No nakasarakak ita iti pabor iti imatangyo, pangngaasiyo koma ta ibagayo iti Faraon, a kunaenyo,
5 ‘When my father was about to die, he told me to solemnly promise that I would bury his body in Canaan, in the tomb that he himself had prepared. So please let me go up to Canaan and bury my father’s body. Then I will return.’”
'Pinagsapatanak ti amak, a kunana, “Kitaem, dandanin ti ipapatayko. Itabondak iti tanem a kinalik para iti bagik iti daga ti Canaan. Idiaydakto nga itabon.” Ita palubosandak koma a mapan mangitabon iti amak, kalpasanna ket agsubliak.'”
6 After they gave the king the message, he replied, “Tell Joseph, ‘Go up and bury your father’s body, as you (swore/solemnly promised) that you would do.’”
Simmungbat ti Faraon, “Mapanmo itabon ti amam kas insapatam kenkuana.”
7 So Joseph went [up to Canaan] to bury his father’s body. All of the king’s officials, all the king’s advisors, and all the elders in Egypt went with him.
Simmang-at ni Jose ket napanna intabon ti amana. Kimmuyog kenkuana a napan dagiti amin nga opisial ti Faraon, dagiti mammagbaga iti sangakabalayanna, ken dagiti amin a panglakayen nga opisial iti daga ti Egipto,
8 His own family’s small children and their sheep and goats and their cattle stayed in the Goshen region. But all the rest of Joseph’s family and his [older] brothers [and younger brother] and his father’s family went with him.
dagiti amin a sangakabalayan ni Jose ken dagiti kakabsatna, ken dagiti sangakabalayan ti amana. Ngem pinanawanda dagiti babassit nga annakda, dagiti arbanda, iti daga ti Gosen.
9 Men riding in chariots [MTY] and on horses also went along. It was a huge group.
Kimmuyog met kenkuana a napan dagiti nakakarwahe ken dagiti nakakabalio a soldado. Nakadakdakkel unay daytoy a bunggoy dagiti tattao.
10 They went to the east side of the Jordan [River] and arrived at Atad. There was a place there where people (threshed/beat the grain to separate the wheat from the chaff.) There they mourned loudly for Jacob for a long time. Joseph performed mourning ceremonies for his father for seven days.
Idi dimtengda iti pagirikan ti Atad iti bangir ti Jordan, nagladingitda iti kasta unay. Nangipaay ni Jose sadiay ti pito nga aldaw a panagladladingit a para iti amana.
11 When the Canaan people-group who lived there saw them mourning like that, they said, “This is a sad mourning place for the people of Egypt!” So they named the place Abel-Mizraim, [which sounds like the Hebrew words that mean ‘mourning of the Egyptians].’
Idi nakita dagiti agnanaed iti daga, a Canaanita ti panagladladingit idiay pagirikan ti Atad, kinunada, “Daytoy ket maysa a naliday unay a pasamak kadagiti Egipcio.” Dayta ti gapuna a naawagan ti lugar iti Abel Mizraim. Daytoy ket adda iti labes ti Jordan.
12 Then Jacob’s sons did for him what their father had commanded.
Tinungpal ngarud dagiti lallaki a putot ni Jacob ti imbilinna nga aramidenda para kenkuana.
13 They [crossed the Jordan River and] carried Jacob’s body to Canaan. They buried it in the cave in the field at Machpelah, east of Mamre [town]. That was the field that Abraham had bought from Ephron, who was one of the Heth people-group, to use as a burial place.
Impan isuna dagiti lallaki a putotna idiay daga ti Canaan ket intabonda isuna iti rukib idiay talon ti Macpela, nga asideg iti Mamre. Ginatang ni Abraham ti rukib agraman ti talon a mausar a pagitaneman. Ginatangna daytoy manipud kenni Efron a Heteo.
14 After he had buried his father, Joseph and his [older] brothers [and younger brother] and all the others who had gone up to Canaan with him for the funeral returned to Egypt.
Kalpasan a naitabonna ti amana, nagsubli ni Jose idiay Egipto, isuna, kaduana dagiti kakabsatna, ken dagiti amin a kimmuyog kenkuana a nangitabon iti amana.
15 After Jacob died, Joseph’s brothers became worried. They realized what might happen. They said, “Suppose Joseph hates us and tries to get revenge for all the evil things that we did to him many years ago?”
Idi nakita dagiti kakabsat ni Jose a natayen ti amada, kinunada, “Kasano ngay no nasakit pay laeng ti nakem ni Jose ket kayatnatayo a balsen kadagiti amin a dakes nga inaramidtayo kenkuana?”
16 So they sent someone to tell this to Joseph for them: “Before our father died, he told us this:
Isu a nangipatulodda iti mensahe kenni Jose, a kunada, “Nangted iti bilin ti amam sakbay a natay, kinunana,
17 ‘Say to Joseph, “Please forgive your [older] brothers for the evil thing that they did to you, for their terrible sin against you, because what they did to you was very wrong.”’ So now we, who are servants of your father’s God, ask you, please forgive us for what we did to you.” But Joseph just cried when he received their message.
'Ibagayo kenni Jose daytoy, “Pakawanem koma dagiti kakabsatmo iti biddut nga inaramidda idi pinagaramidandaka iti saan a nasayaat.'” Ita, pangngaasim ta pakawanem dagiti adipen ti Dios ti amam.” Nagsangit ni Jose idi naiyeg iti mensahe kenkuana.
18 Then his [older] brothers themselves came and threw themselves on the ground in front of Joseph, and one of them said, “Please listen. We will just be your servants.”
Napan met dagiti kakabsatna ket nagpaklebda iti sangoananna. Kinunada, “Kitaem, adipennakami.”
19 But Joseph replied to them, “Do not be afraid! [God is the one who punishes people]; (am I God?/I am not God!) [RHQ]
Ngem simmungbat ni Jose kadakuada, “Saankayo nga agbuteng. Addaak kadi iti lugar ti Dios?
20 As for you, yes, you wanted to do something very evil to me. But God caused something good to come from it! He wanted to save many people from dying of hunger, and that is what happened! Today they are alive!
Ket no maipapan met kadakayo, panangdangran ti pinanggepyo nga aramiden kaniak, ngem pinagbalin ti Dios daytoy a naimbag, tapno maisalbar ti biag ti adu a tattao, a kas makitayo ita.
21 So I say [again], do not be afraid! I will make sure that you and your children have enough to eat.” In that way he reassured them and made made them feel much better.
Ita ngarud, saankayo nga agbuteng. Ipaaykonto ti kasapulanyo ken kasta met kadagiti annakyo.” Liniwliwana ida iti kastoy a wagas ken nagsao a sisasayaat kadakuada.
22 Joseph lived with his father’s family in Egypt until he was 110 years old.
Nagnaed ni Jose idiay Egipto, kaduana ti pamilia ti amana. Nagbiag isuna ti sangagasut ket sangapulo a tawen.
23 He lived long enough to see Ephraim’s children and grandchildren. The children of Joseph’s grandson Machir, who was Manasseh’s son, were born before Joseph died, and were adopted by Joseph to be his own children [IDM].
Nakita ni Jose dagiti putot ni Efraim agingga iti maikatlo a henerasyon. Nakitana met dagiti putot ni Makir a putot ni Manases. Imbilangna ida a kameng iti pamiliana.
24 One day Joseph said to his [older] brothers, “I am about to die. But God will certainly (help/take care of) you. And [some day] he will lead your [descendants] up out of this land and take them to Canaan, the land that he solemnly promised to give to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.”
Kinuna ni Jose kadagiti kakabsatna, “Dandanin ti ipapatayko; ngem awan duadua nga umayto ti Dios kadakayo ken ipanawnakayo iti daytoy a daga ken iturongnakayo iti daga nga insapatana nga ited kada Abraham, Isaac, ken Jacob.”
25 Then Joseph said, “When God enables you to do that, you must take my body back to Canaan.” He made his older brothers solemnly promise to do that.
Ket pinagsapata ni Jose dagiti tattao ti Israel iti maysa a kari. Kinunana, “Awan duadua nga umayto ti Dios kadakayo. Iti dayta a tiempo masapul nga awitenyo dagiti tulangko manipud ditoy.”
26 So Joseph died in Egypt when he was 110 years old. His body was embalmed and put in a coffin there.
Natay ngarud ni Jose, sangagasut ket sangapulo ti tawenna. Kalpasan a binalsamoda isuna, inkabilda isuna iti maysa a lungon idiay Egipto.
