Genesis 50
1 Joseph fell on his father’s face, wept on him, and kissed him.
Te vaengah Joseph loh a napa maelhmai a bakop thil tih a soah a rhah neh a mok.
2 Joseph commanded his servants, the physicians, to embalm his father; and the physicians embalmed Israel.
Te phoeiah Joseph loh a napa te sihluk ham a sal siboei rhoek te a uen tih siboei rhoek loh Isreal te si a hlukuh.
3 Forty days were used for him, for that is how many days it takes to embalm. The Egyptians wept for Israel for seventy days.
Sihluknah khohnin te khohnin lipkip a di ham a om dongah khohnin a soep vanneh rhok te Egypt rhoek loh khohnin sawmrhih a rhah uh.
4 When the days of weeping for him were past, Joseph spoke to Pharaoh’s staff, saying, “If now I have found favour in your eyes, please speak in the ears of Pharaoh, saying,
Rhahnah khohnin a poeng vaengah Joseph loh Pharaoh im la, “Na mikhmuh ah mikdaithen ni ka dang atah Pharaoh kah hna kaep ah bet ka thui mai eh.
5 ‘My father made me swear, saying, “Behold, I am dying. Bury me in my grave which I have dug for myself in the land of Canaan.” Now therefore, please let me go up and bury my father, and I will come again.’”
A pa loh, 'Ka duek atah Kanaan kho ah kamah ham ka vueh tangtae phuel ah pahoi nan up ni, ' a ti tih kai he n'toemngam sak oeh dongah bet ka cet saeh lamtah a pa te ka up phoeiah ka bal mai eh?,” a ti nah.
6 Pharaoh said, “Go up, and bury your father, just like he made you swear.”
Pharaoh long khaw, “Na toemngam vanbangla cet lamtah na pa te up dae,” a ti nah.
7 Joseph went up to bury his father; and with him went up all the servants of Pharaoh, the elders of his house, all the elders of the land of Egypt,
Te dongah Joseph te a napa up ham a caeh hatah Pharaoh kah sal boeih neh a im kah a hamca rhoek long khaw, Egypt kho kah a hamca boeih long khaw,
8 all the house of Joseph, his brothers, and his father’s house. Only their little ones, their flocks, and their herds, they left in the land of Goshen.
Joseph cako boeih neh a manuca rhoek long khaw, a napa cako long khaw a thak puei uh. Camoe neh a boiva, saelhung bueng te Goshen kho ah a caehtak uh.
9 Both chariots and horsemen went up with him. It was a very great company.
Te dongah anih taengah aka cet te leng khaw, marhang caem khaw lambong yet la muep om.
10 They came to the threshing floor of Atad, which is beyond the Jordan, and there they lamented with a very great and severe lamentation. He mourned for his father seven days.
Tedae Jordan rhalvangan kah Atad te a pha uh vaengah rhaengsaelung neh bungbung mat a rhaengsae uh tih a napa ham nguekcoinah te hnin rhih a yaeh uh.
11 When the inhabitants of the land, the Canaanites, saw the mourning in the floor of Atad, they said, “This is a grievous mourning by the Egyptians.” Therefore its name was called Abel Mizraim, which is beyond the Jordan.
Tedae Atad ah a nguekcoinah te Kanaan kho kah khosa rhoek loh a hmuh uh vaengah, “Hekah he Egypt rhoek loh mat a nguekcoinah ni,” a ti uh dongah Jordan rhalvangan kah a ming te Abelmizaim la a khue.
12 His sons did to him just as he commanded them,
Te dongah a uen vanbangla Isreal ham a ca rhoek loh a saii uh tih,
13 for his sons carried him into the land of Canaan, and buried him in the cave of the field of Machpelah, which Abraham bought with the field, as a possession for a burial site, from Ephron the Hittite, near Mamre.
Kanaan kho la a khuen uh. Te phoeiah Abraham loh phuel khohut la Khitti Ephron kah khohmuen Mamre ah a lai Makpelah lo kah lungko ah a up uh.
14 Joseph returned into Egypt—he, and his brothers, and all that went up with him to bury his father, after he had buried his father.
Joseph neh a manuca rhoek khaw, a napa up ham anih taengah aka cet boeih long khaw a napa te aup phoeiah Egypt la bal uh.
15 When Joseph’s brothers saw that their father was dead, they said, “It may be that Joseph will hate us, and will fully pay us back for all the evil which we did to him.”
Tedae a napa a duek coeng dongah Joseph te a manuca rhoek loh a hmuh uh vaengah, “Joseph he mamih taengah a konaeh koinih anih taengah boethae n'saii uh boeih te n'thuung rhoe n'thuung ni,” a ti uh.
16 They sent a message to Joseph, saying, “Your father commanded before he died, saying,
Te dongah Joseph taengla ol a uen uh tih, “Na pa loh a duek hlan ah,
17 ‘You shall tell Joseph, “Now please forgive the disobedience of your brothers, and their sin, because they did evil to you.”’ Now, please forgive the disobedience of the servants of the God of your father.” Joseph wept when they spoke to him.
'Joseph te, 'Na manuca rhoek kah dumlai khaw, nang a thae la n'saii uh vaengakah tholhnah te khaw phueih mai ti nah,’ a ti tih n'uen dongah na pa Pathen sal rhoek kah boekoeknah te phuei mai,” a ti nah uh tih a thui uh vaengah Joseph rhap.
18 His brothers also went and fell down before his face; and they said, “Behold, we are your servants.”
Te dongah a manuca rhoek khaw cet uh tih a hmai ah bakop uh tih kaimih he nang kah sal ni he a ti uh.
19 Joseph said to them, “Don’t be afraid, for am I in the place of God?
Tedae Joseph loh, “kai he Pathen hnukthoi a? Rhih uh boeh saw.
20 As for you, you meant evil against me, but God meant it for good, to save many people alive, as is happening today.
Nangmih loh kai taengah boethae la nan taeng uh cakhaw Pathen loh tahae khohnin kah bangla pilnam muep hing sak ham te a then la a moeh coeng.
21 Now therefore don’t be afraid. I will provide for you and your little ones.” He comforted them, and spoke kindly to them.
Te dongah rhih uh boeh. Nangmih khaw, na ca rhoek khaw kan cangbam bitni,” a ti nah tih amih lungbuei te hloep ol a thui pah.
22 Joseph lived in Egypt, he, and his father’s house. Joseph lived one hundred and ten years.
Joseph khaw Egypt ah a napa kah a cako neh kho a sak. Te vaengah Joseph te kum pasoi neh kum rha hing.
23 Joseph saw Ephraim’s children to the third generation. The children also of Machir, the son of Manasseh, were born on Joseph’s knees.
Te dongah Joseph loh Ephraim ca rhoek a khongthum duela a hmuh. Manasseh capa Makir ca rhoek khaw Joseph khuklu dongah a cun uh.
24 Joseph said to his brothers, “I am dying, but God will surely visit you, and bring you up out of this land to the land which he swore to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.”
Te vaengah Joseph loh a manuca rhoek la, “Kai ka duek cakhaw Pathen loh nangmih n'hip khaw n'hip vetih nangmih te tahae kah kho lamkah Abraham, Isaak neh Jakob ham a toemngam tangtae khohmuen la khuen bitni,” a ti nah.
25 Joseph took an oath from the children of Israel, saying, “God will surely visit you, and you shall carry up my bones from here.”
Te dongah Joseph loh Israel ca rhoek te a toemngam sak tih, “Nangmih te Pathen loh n'hip rhoe la n'hip vaengah he lamkah ka rhuh na khuen uh ni,” a ti nah.
26 So Joseph died, being one hundred and ten years old, and they embalmed him, and he was put in a coffin in Egypt.
Joseph he kum pasoi neh a lang a lo ca vaengah duek tih a rhok te si a hluk uh phoeiah Egypt kah thingkawng dongah a khueh uh.
