< Genesis 50 >

1 Joseph fell on his father’s face, wept on him, and kissed him.
И припад Иосиф на лице отца своего, плакася (горько) о нем и облобыза его:
2 Joseph commanded his servants, the physicians, to embalm his father; and the physicians embalmed Israel.
и повеле Иосиф рабом своим погребателем погребсти отца своего. И погребоша погребателие Израиля.
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.
И исполнишася ему четыредесять дний: тако бо исчисляются дние погребения: и плакася его Египет седмьдесят дний.
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,
Егда же преидоша дние плача, глагола Иосиф ко вельможам фараоновым, глаголя: аще обретох благодать пред вами, рцыте о мне во ушы фараону, глаголюще:
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.’”
отец мой закля мя прежде скончания (своего), глаголя: во гробе, егоже ископах себе в земли Ханаани, тамо мя погреби: ныне убо возшед погребу отца моего и возвращуся. И рекоша фараону по словеси Иосифову.
6 Pharaoh said, “Go up, and bury your father, just like he made you swear.”
И рече фараон ко Иосифу: взыди, погреби отца твоего, якоже закля тя.
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,
И взыде Иосиф погребсти отца своего. И совзыдоша с ним вси раби фараони и старейшины дому его, и вси старейшины земли Египетския,
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.
и весь дом Иосифов и братия его, и весь дом отца его и сродницы его: овцы же и волы оставиша в земли Гесем.
9 Both chariots and horsemen went up with him. It was a very great company.
И совзыдоша с ним и колесницы и конницы, и бысть полк велик зело.
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.
И приидоша на Гумно Атадово, еже есть об он пол Иордана, и рыдаша его рыданием велиим и крепким зело: и сотвори плачь отцу своему седмь дний.
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.
И видеша жителие земли Ханаанския плачь на Гумне Атадове и реша: плачь велик сей есть Египтяном. Сего ради наречеся имя месту тому плачь Египетск, еже есть об он пол Иордана.
12 His sons did to him just as he commanded them,
И сотвориша ему тако сынове его, якоже заповеда им.
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.
И взяша его сынове его в землю Ханааню и погребоша его в пещере Сугубей, юже стяжа Авраам пещеру в стяжание гроба от Ефрона Хеттеанина, прямо Мамврии.
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.
И возвратися Иосиф во Египет, сам и братия его и вси совозшедшии погребсти отца его.
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.”
Видевше же братия Иосифовы, яко умре отец их, реша: да не когда воспомянет злобу нашу Иосиф и воздаянием воздаст нам за вся злая, яже показахом ему.
16 They sent a message to Joseph, saying, “Your father commanded before he died, saying,
И пришедше ко Иосифу рекоша: отец твой закля прежде кончины своея, глаголя:
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.
тако рцыте Иосифу: остави им неправду и грех их, яко лукавая тебе показаша: и ныне приими неправду рабов Бога отца твоего. И плакася Иосиф, глаголющим им к нему.
18 His brothers also went and fell down before his face; and they said, “Behold, we are your servants.”
И пришедше к нему рекоша: се, мы тебе раби.
19 Joseph said to them, “Don’t be afraid, for am I in the place of God?
И рече к ним Иосиф: не бойтеся, Божий бо есмь аз:
20 As for you, you meant evil against me, but God meant it for good, to save many people alive, as is happening today.
вы совещасте на мя злая, Бог же совеща о мне благая, дабы было якоже днесь, и препиталися бы людие мнози.
21 Now therefore don’t be afraid. I will provide for you and your little ones.” He comforted them, and spoke kindly to them.
И рече им: не бойтеся, аз препитаю вас и домы вашя. И утеши их, и глагола им по сердцу их.
22 Joseph lived in Egypt, he, and his father’s house. Joseph lived one hundred and ten years.
И вселися Иосиф во Египте сам и братия его и весь дом отца его: и поживе Иосиф лет сто десять.
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.
И виде Иосиф Ефремли дети до третияго рода: и сынове Махира сына Манассиина родишася при бедрех Иосифовых.
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.”
И рече Иосиф братии своей, глаголя: аз умираю, посещением же посетит вас Бог и изведет вас от земли сея в землю, о нейже клятся Бог отцем нашым Аврааму, Исааку и Иакову.
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.”
И закля Иосиф сыны Израилевы, глаголя: в посещении, имже посетит вас Бог, совознесите и кости моя отсюду с вами.
26 So Joseph died, being one hundred and ten years old, and they embalmed him, and he was put in a coffin in Egypt.
И скончася Иосиф сый лет ста десяти: и погребоша его, и положиша в раце во Египте.
