Genesis 50

And Joseph fell upon his father's face, and wept upon him, and kissed him.

فَوَقَعَ يُوسُفُ عَلَى وَجْهِ أَبِيهِ وَبَكَى عَلَيْهِ وَقَبَّلَهُ.

And Joseph commanded his servants the physicians to embalm his father: and the physicians embalmed Israel.

وَأَمَرَ يُوسُفُ عَبِيدَهُ الأَطِبَّاءَ أَنْ يُحَنِّطُوا أَبَاهُ. فَحَنَّطَ الأَطِبَّاءُ إِسْرَائِيلَ.

And forty days were fulfilled for him; for so are fulfilled the days of those which are embalmed: and the Egyptians mourned for him threescore and ten days.

وَكَمُلَ لَهُ أَرْبَعُونَ يَوْمًا، لأَنَّهُ هكَذَا تَكْمُلُ أَيَّامُ الْمُحَنَّطِينَ. وَبَكَى عَلَيْهِ الْمِصْرِيُّونَ سَبْعِينَ يَوْمًا.

And when the days of his mourning were past, Joseph spake unto the house of Pharaoh, saying, If now I have found grace in your eyes, speak, I pray you, in the ears of Pharaoh, saying,

وَبَعْدَ مَا مَضَتْ أَيَّامُ بُكَائِهِ كَلَّمَ يُوسُفُ بَيْتَ فِرْعَوْنَ قَائِلاً: «إِنْ كُنْتُ قَدْ وَجَدْتُ نِعْمَةً فِي عُيُونِكُمْ، فَتَكَلَّمُوا فِي مَسَامِعِ فِرْعَوْنَ قَائِلِينَ:

My father made me swear, saying, Lo, I die: in my grave which I have digged for me in the land of Canaan, there shalt thou bury me. Now therefore let me go up, I pray thee, and bury my father, and I will come again.

أَبِي اسْتَحْلَفَنِي قَائِلاً: هَا أَنَا أَمُوتُ. فِي قَبْرِيَ الَّذِي حَفَرْتُ لِنَفْسِي فِي أَرْضِ كَنْعَانَ هُنَاكَ تَدْفِنُنِي، فَالآنَ أَصْعَدُ لأَدْفِنَ أَبِي وَأَرْجِعُ».

And Pharaoh said, Go up, and bury thy father, according as he made thee swear.

فَقَالَ فِرْعَوْنُ: «اصْعَدْ وَادْفِنْ أَبَاكَ كَمَا اسْتَحْلَفَكَ».

And Joseph went up to bury his father: and with him went up all the servants of Pharaoh, the elders of his house, and all the elders of the land of Egypt,

فَصَعِدَ يُوسُفُ لِيَدْفِنَ أَبَاهُ، وَصَعِدَ مَعَهُ جَمِيعُ عَبِيدِ فِرْعَوْنَ، شُيُوخُ بَيْتِهِ وَجَمِيعُ شُيُوخِ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ،

And all the house of Joseph, and his brethren, and his father's house: only their little ones, and their flocks, and their herds, they left in the land of Goshen.

وَكُلُّ بَيْتِ يُوسُفَ وَإِخْوَتُهُ وَبَيْتُ أَبِيهِ، غَيْرَ أَنَّهُمْ تَرَكُوا أَوْلاَدَهُمْ وَغَنَمَهُمْ وَبَقَرَهُمْ فِي أَرْضِ جَاسَانَ.

And there went up with him both chariots and horsemen: and it was a very great company.

وَصَعِدَ مَعَهُ مَرْكَبَاتٌ وَفُرْسَانٌ، فَكَانَ الْجَيْشُ كَثِيرًا جِدًّا.

And they came to the threshingfloor of Atad, which is beyond Jordan, and there they mourned with a great and very sore lamentation: and he made a mourning for his father seven days.

فَأَتَوْا إِلَى بَيْدَرِ أَطَادَ الَّذِي فِي عَبْرِ الأُرْدُنِّ وَنَاحُوا هُنَاكَ نَوْحًا عَظِيمًا وَشَدِيدًا جِدًّا، وَصَنَعَ لأَبِيهِ مَنَاحَةً سَبْعَةَ أَيَّامٍ.

And when the inhabitants of the land, the Canaanites, saw the mourning in the floor of Atad, they said, This is a grievous mourning to the Egyptians: wherefore the name of it was called Abel–mizraim, which is beyond Jordan.

فَلَمَّا رَأَى أَهْلُ الْبِلاَدِ الْكَنْعَانِيُّونَ الْمَنَاحَةَ فِي بَيْدَرِ أَطَادَ قَالُوا: «هذِهِ مَنَاحَةٌ ثَقِيلَةٌ لِلْمِصْرِيِّينَ». لِذلِكَ دُعِيَ اسْمُهُ «آبَلَ مِصْرَايِمَ». الَّذِي فِي عَبْرِ الأُرْدُنِّ.

And his sons did unto him according as he commanded them:

وَفَعَلَ لَهُ بَنُوهُ هكَذَا كَمَا أَوْصَاهُمْ:

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 for a possession of a buryingplace of Ephron the Hittite, before Mamre.

حَمَلَهُ بَنُوهُ إِلَى أَرْضِ كَنْعَانَ وَدَفَنُوهُ فِي مَغَارَةِ حَقْلِ الْمَكْفِيلَةِ، الَّتِي اشْتَرَاهَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ مَعَ الْحَقْلِ مُلْكَ قَبْرٍ مِنْ عِفْرُونَ الْحِثِّيِ أَمَامَ مَمْرَا.

And Joseph returned into Egypt, he, and his brethren, and all that went up with him to bury his father, after he had buried his father.

ثُمَّ رَجَعَ يُوسُفُ إِلَى مِصْرَ هُوَ وَإِخْوَتُهُ وَجَمِيعُ الَّذِينَ صَعِدُوا مَعَهُ لِدَفْنِ أَبِيهِ بَعْدَ مَا دَفَنَ أَبَاهُ.

And when Joseph's brethren saw that their father was dead, they said, Joseph will peradventure hate us, and will certainly requite us all the evil which we did unto him.

وَلَمَّا رَأَى إِخْوَةُ يُوسُفَ أَنَّ أَبَاهُمْ قَدْ مَاتَ، قَالُوا: «لَعَلَّ يُوسُفَ يَضْطَهِدُنَا وَيَرُدُّ عَلَيْنَا جَمِيعَ الشَّرِّ الَّذِي صَنَعْنَا بِهِ».

And they sent a messenger unto Joseph, saying, Thy father did command before he died, saying,

فَأَوَصَوْا إِلَى يُوسُفَ قَائِلِينَ: «أَبُوكَ أَوْصَى قَبْلَ مَوْتِهِ قَائِلاً:

So shall ye say unto Joseph, Forgive, I pray thee now, the trespass of thy brethren, and their sin; for they did unto thee evil: and now, we pray thee, forgive the trespass of the servants of the God of thy father. And Joseph wept when they spake unto him.

هكَذَا تَقُولُونَ لِيُوسُفَ: آهِ! اصْفَحْ عَنْ ذَنْبِ إِخْوَتِكَ وَخَطِيَّتِهِمْ، فَإِنَّهُمْ صَنَعُوا بِكَ شَرًّا. فَالآنَ اصْفَحْ عَنْ ذَنْبِ عَبِيدِ إِلهِ أَبِيكَ». فَبَكَى يُوسُفُ حِينَ كَلَّمُوهُ.

And his brethren also went and fell down before his face; and they said, Behold, we be thy servants.

وَأَتَى إِخْوَتُهُ أَيْضًا وَوَقَعُوا أَمَامَهُ وَقَالُوا: «هَا نَحْنُ عَبِيدُكَ».

And Joseph said unto them, Fear not: for am I in the place of God?

فَقَالَ لَهُمْ يُوسُفُ: «لاَ تَخَافُوا. لأَنَّهُ هَلْ أَنَا مَكَانَ اللهِ؟

But as for you, ye thought evil against me; but God meant it unto good, to bring to pass, as it is this day, to save much people alive.

أَنْتُمْ قَصَدْتُمْ لِي شَرًّا، أَمَّا اللهُ فَقَصَدَ بِهِ خَيْرًا، لِكَيْ يَفْعَلَ كَمَا الْيَوْمَ، لِيُحْيِيَ شَعْبًا كَثِيرًا.

Now therefore fear ye not: I will nourish you, and your little ones. And he comforted them, and spake kindly unto them.

فَالآنَ لاَ تَخَافُوا. أَنَا أَعُولُكُمْ وَأَوْلاَدَكُمْ». فَعَزَّاهُمْ وَطَيَّبَ قُلُوبَهُمْ.

And Joseph dwelt in Egypt, he, and his father's house: and Joseph lived an hundred and ten years.

وَسَكَنَ يُوسُفُ فِي مِصْرَ هُوَ وَبَيْتُ أَبِيهِ، وَعَاشَ يُوسُفُ مِئَةً وَعَشَرَ سِنِينَ.

And Joseph saw Ephraim's children of the third generation: the children also of Machir the son of Manasseh were brought up upon Joseph's knees.

وَرَأَى يُوسُفُ لأَفْرَايِمَ أَوْلاَدَ الْجِيلِ الثَّالِثِ. وَأَوْلاَدُ مَاكِيرَ بْنِ مَنَسَّى أَيْضًا وُلِدُوا عَلَى رُكْبَتَيْ يُوسُفَ.

And Joseph said unto his brethren, I die: and God will surely visit you, and bring you out of this land unto the land which he sware to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.

وَقَالَ يُوسُفُ لإِخْوَتِهِ: «أَنَا أَمُوتُ، وَلكِنَّ اللهَ سَيَفْتَقِدُكُمْ وَيُصْعِدُكُمْ مِنْ هذِهِ الأَرْضِ إِلَى الأَرْضِ الَّتِي حَلَفَ لإِبْرَاهِيمَ وَإِسْحَاقَ وَيَعْقُوبَ».

And Joseph took an oath of the children of Israel, saying, God will surely visit you, and ye shall carry up my bones from hence.

وَاسْتَحْلَفَ يُوسُفُ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ قَائِلاً: «اللهُ سَيَفْتَقِدُكُمْ فَتُصْعِدُونَ عِظَامِي مِنْ هُنَا».

So Joseph died, being an hundred and ten years old: and they embalmed him, and he was put in a coffin in Egypt.

ثُمَّ مَاتَ يُوسُفُ وَهُوَ ابْنُ مِئَةٍ وَعَشَرِ سِنِينَ، فَحَنَّطُوهُ وَوُضِعَ فِي تَابُوتٍ فِي مِصْرَ.
