Genesis 50
Maori Bible
50 Na ka hinga a Hohepa ki runga ki te mata o tona papa, a ka tangi i runga i a ia, ka kihi hoki i a ia.
2 Na ka whakahau a Hohepa i ana tangata, i nga kairongoa, kia whakapakokotia tona papa; na whakapakokotia ana a Iharaira e nga kairongoa.
3 Na ka tutuki ona ra e wha tekau; ko nga ra hoki ena e whakatutukitia ana mo te hunga e whakapakokotia ana: a e whitu tekau nga ra i uhungatia ai ia e nga Ihipiana.
4 A, ka taka nga ra e uhungatia ia ia, ka korero a Hohepa ki te whare o Parao, ka mea, Na, ki te mea kua manakohia ahau e koutou, tena, korero atu ki nga taringa o Parao, mea atu,
5 I whakaoati toku papa i ahau, i mea, Ka mate tenei ahau: hei roto i taku tanumanga i keria e ahau moku ki te whenua o Kanaana, hei reira ahau tanumia ai e koe. Na kia tukua ahau e koe aianei kia haere ki runga, ki te tanu i toku papa, ka hoki mai ai.
6 Na ka mea a Parao, Haere ki runga ki te tanu i tou papa, kia rite ki tana i whakaoati ai i a koe.
7 Na haere ana a Hohepa ki runga ki te tanu i tona papa, i haere tahi ano i a ia nga pononga katoa a Parao, nga kaumatua o tona whare, me nga kaumatua katoa o te whenua o Ihipa,
8 Me te whare katoa ano hoki o Hohepa, ratou ko ona tuakana, me te whare ano hoki o tona papa; ko a ratou tamariki anake, me a ratou hipi, me a ratou kau i mahue i a ratou i te whenua o Kohena.
9 I haere tahi ano i a ia nga hariata me nga tangata hoiho: he nui whakaharahara te tira.
10 Na ka tae ratou ki te patunga witi a Atara, i tawahi o Horano, a he tino nui whakaharahara te tangihanga i tangi ai ratou ki reira: e whitu hoki nga ra i uhungatia ai e ia tona papa.
11 A, ka kite nga tangata whenua, nga Kanaani, i te uhunga i te patunga witi a Atara, ka mea ratou, He uhunga nui tenei na nga Ihipiana: na reira i huaina ai te ingoa o reira ko Apere Mitiraima, kei tawahi hoki o Horano.
12 Na rite tonu ki tana i whakahau ai ki a ratou tana tama i mea ai ki a ia:
13 I kawea hoki ia e ana tama ki te whenua o Kanaana, a tanumia ana ki te ana i te parae o Makapera, i hokona tahitia nei e Aperahama me te parae i a Eperona Hiti, kia puritia hei tanumanga, kei te ritenga atu o Mamere.
14 Na hoki ana a Hohepa ki Ihipa, ratou tahi ko ona tuakana, ko nga tangata katoa ano hoki i haere tahi i a ia ki runga ki te tanu i tona papa, i te mutunga o tana tanu i tona papa.
15 Na, i te kitenga o nga tuakana o Hohepa kua mate to ratou papa, ka mea ratou, Tera pea e kino mai a Hohepa ki a tatou, a ka utua mai e ia a tatou kino katoa i meatia e tatou ki a ia.
16 Na ka tuku tangata ratou ki a Hohepa, a ka mea, I whakahau mai tou papa i mua ake i tona matenga, i mea mai,
17 Kia penei ta koutou kupu ki a Hohepa, Tena, whakarerea te he o ou tuakana, me to ratou hara; he kino hoki ta ratou mahi ki a koe: na, tena whakarerea te he o nga pononga a te Atua o tou papa. A ka tangi a Hohepa i a ratou kupu ki a ia.
18 Na ka haere ona tuakana, ka tapapa ki tona aroaro; ka mea, Tenei matou hei pononga mau.
19 A ka mea a Hohepa ki a ratou, Kaua e wehi: he kaiwhakakapi oti ahau mo to te Atua wahi?
20 Ko koutou hoki, i he o koutou whakaaro ki ahau; he pai ia to te Atua whakaaro, kia meatia ai tenei inaianei, kia whakaorangia ai hoki nga tangata tokomaha.
21 Heoi kaua e wehi; maku koutou e atawhai, koutou ko a koutou tamariki. A ka whakamarie ia i a ratou, ka whakamama hoki i o ratou ngakau.
22 Na ka noho a Hohepa ki Ihipa, ratou ko te whare o tona papa: a kotahi rau kotahi tekau nga tau i ora ai a Hohepa.
23 A i kite a Hohepa i te tuatoru o nga whakatupuranga o nga tamariki a Eparaima: i whakatupuria ano hoki nga tamariki a Makiri, tama a Manahi, ki runga ki nga turi o Hohepa.
24 Na ka mea a Hohepa ki ona tuakana, Ka mate ahau; otiia ka ata tirohia koutou e te Atua, a ka kawea atu koutou e ia i tenei whenua ki runga, ki te whenua i oati ai ia ki a Aperahama, ki a Ihaka, ki a Hakopa.
25 Na ka whakaoatitia nga tama a Iharaira e Hohepa, ka mea ia, Ka tikina mai koutou, ka ata tirohia e te Atua, a me kawe atu e koutou oku iwi i konei ki runga.
26 Na ka mate a Hohepa i te kotahi rau i te kotahi tekau o ona tau: a ka whakapakokotia e ratou, ka whakatakotoria hoki ki te kawhena i Ihipa.
Genesis 50
New International Version
Genesis 50
New International Version
50 Joseph threw himself on his father and wept over him and kissed him.(A) 2 Then Joseph directed the physicians in his service to embalm his father Israel. So the physicians embalmed him,(B) 3 taking a full forty days, for that was the time required for embalming. And the Egyptians mourned for him seventy days.(C)
4 When the days of mourning(D) had passed, Joseph said to Pharaoh’s court,(E) “If I have found favor in your eyes,(F) speak to Pharaoh for me. Tell him, 5 ‘My father made me swear an oath(G) and said, “I am about to die;(H) bury me in the tomb I dug for myself(I) in the land of Canaan.”(J) Now let me go up and bury my father;(K) then I will return.’”
6 Pharaoh said, “Go up and bury your father, as he made you swear to do.”
7 So Joseph went up to bury his father. All Pharaoh’s officials(L) accompanied him—the dignitaries of his court(M) and all the dignitaries of Egypt— 8 besides all the members of Joseph’s household and his brothers and those belonging to his father’s household.(N) Only their children and their flocks and herds were left in Goshen.(O) 9 Chariots(P) and horsemen[a] also went up with him. It was a very large company.
10 When they reached the threshing floor(Q) of Atad, near the Jordan, they lamented loudly and bitterly;(R) and there Joseph observed a seven-day period(S) of mourning(T) for his father.(U) 11 When the Canaanites(V) who lived there saw the mourning at the threshing floor of Atad, they said, “The Egyptians are holding a solemn ceremony of mourning.”(W) That is why that place near the Jordan is called Abel Mizraim.[b]
12 So Jacob’s sons did as he had commanded them:(X) 13 They carried him to the land of Canaan and buried him in the cave in the field of Machpelah,(Y) near Mamre,(Z) which Abraham had bought along with the field(AA) as a burial place from Ephron the Hittite.(AB) 14 After burying his father, Joseph returned to Egypt, together with his brothers and all the others who had gone with him to bury his father.(AC)
Joseph Reassures His Brothers
15 When Joseph’s brothers saw that their father was dead, they said, “What if Joseph holds a grudge(AD) against us and pays us back for all the wrongs we did to him?”(AE) 16 So they sent word to Joseph, saying, “Your father left these instructions(AF) before he died: 17 ‘This is what you are to say to Joseph: I ask you to forgive your brothers the sins(AG) and the wrongs they committed in treating you so badly.’(AH) Now please forgive the sins of the servants of the God of your father.(AI)” When their message came to him, Joseph wept.(AJ)
18 His brothers then came and threw themselves down before him.(AK) “We are your slaves,”(AL) they said.
19 But Joseph said to them, “Don’t be afraid. Am I in the place of God?(AM) 20 You intended to harm me,(AN) but God intended(AO) it for good(AP) to accomplish what is now being done, the saving of many lives.(AQ) 21 So then, don’t be afraid. I will provide for you and your children.(AR)” And he reassured them and spoke kindly(AS) to them.
The Death of Joseph
22 Joseph stayed in Egypt, along with all his father’s family. He lived a hundred and ten years(AT) 23 and saw the third generation(AU) of Ephraim’s(AV) children.(AW) Also the children of Makir(AX) son of Manasseh(AY) were placed at birth on Joseph’s knees.[c](AZ)
24 Then Joseph said to his brothers, “I am about to die.(BA) But God will surely come to your aid(BB) and take you up out of this land to the land(BC) he promised on oath to Abraham,(BD) Isaac(BE) and Jacob.”(BF) 25 And Joseph made the Israelites swear an oath(BG) and said, “God will surely come to your aid, and then you must carry my bones(BH) up from this place.”(BI)
26 So Joseph died(BJ) at the age of a hundred and ten.(BK) And after they embalmed him,(BL) he was placed in a coffin in Egypt.
