創世記 50
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
安葬雅各
50 約瑟伏在父親身上痛哭,親吻他, 2 然後吩咐醫生用香料保存父親的遺體。醫生遵命而行, 3 按照常例花了四十天處理屍體。埃及人為他哀悼七十天。
4 哀悼的日子完了,約瑟對法老宮中的人說:「如果你們恩待我, 5 請告訴法老,我父親死前要我起誓把他葬在迦南他自己預備好的墳地。請准許我到迦南去安葬我父親,我辦完喪事就回來。」 6 法老說:「去按照你的誓言埋葬你父親吧。」 7 於是,約瑟啟程去埋葬他的父親,隨行的有法老所有的臣僕和埃及所有的達官貴人, 8 以及約瑟全家、他的眾弟兄和雅各的家眷,只有他們的孩子和牛羊仍然留在歌珊。 9 隨行的還有大隊車輛和兵馬,人數眾多。 10 他們來到約旦河附近的亞達麥場,在那裡痛哭哀悼。約瑟為父親守喪七天。 11 迦南人看見他們在亞達麥場痛哭,就說:「埃及人在痛哭哀悼。」因此,約旦河附近的那個地方叫亞伯·麥西[a]。 12 以色列的兒子們遵照父親的遺言, 13 把父親的遺體帶回迦南,安葬在幔利附近、麥比拉田間的洞裡。洞和田地都是亞伯拉罕向赫人以弗崙買來作墳地的。 14 葬禮之後,約瑟就跟眾弟兄和一切隨行的人返回埃及。
上帝的美好旨意
15 約瑟的哥哥們見父親死了,就說:「約瑟會不會懷恨在心,因我們以前惡待他而報復我們呢?」 16 於是,他們派人去對約瑟說:「你父親臨終時交待這樣的話給你, 17 『從前你哥哥們惡待你,求你饒恕他們的罪惡和過犯。』我們是你父親的上帝的僕人,求你饒恕我們的罪惡。」約瑟聽見這些話,就哭了。 18 約瑟的哥哥們來見他,俯伏在他面前,說:「我們是你的奴僕。」 19 約瑟對他們說:「你們不要害怕,我豈能代替上帝? 20 從前你們是要加害於我,但上帝有祂的美意,祂藉此保全許多人的性命,正如今日的光景。 21 因此,你們不要害怕,我會照顧你們和你們的兒女。」約瑟好言好語地寬慰他們。
約瑟去世
22 約瑟和他父親全家住在埃及。約瑟享年一百一十歲。 23 他看到了以法蓮的孫子,也曾把瑪拿西的兒子瑪吉的孩子抱在膝上。 24 一天,約瑟對他的弟兄們說:「我快要死了,但上帝必看顧你們,帶你們離開這裡,回到祂起誓應許給亞伯拉罕、以撒和雅各的地方。」 25 約瑟要以色列的子孫發誓把他的骸骨帶回迦南,又說:「上帝必看顧你們。」 26 約瑟享年一百一十歲。他們把他的遺體用香料保存好,放在棺材裡,停放在埃及。

Lễ mai táng Gia-cốp
50 Sau khi Gia-cốp qua đời, Giô-xép ôm xác cha, hôn và khóc lóc thảm thiết. 2 Ông truyền lệnh cho các y sĩ chăm sóc cha mình tẩm liệm xác Ít-ra-en, nên họ thi hành thủ tục tẩm liệm để mai táng. 3 Các y sĩ mất bốn mươi ngày để tẩm liệm xác Gia-cốp. Đó là thời gian trung bình. Người Ai-cập có tục lệ than khóc Gia-cốp trong bảy mươi ngày.
4 Sau khi thời kỳ than khóc chấm dứt, Giô-xép bảo các quan cận thần của vua rằng, “Nếu các ông thương tôi thì xin thưa với vua như sau: 5 ‘Khi cha tôi gần qua đời, tôi có hứa với người rằng tôi sẽ mai táng người trong hang nơi đất Ca-na-an, chỗ an táng mà người đã chuẩn bị sẵn cho mình. Vì thế xin cho phép tôi đi mai táng cha tôi rồi sẽ trở về.’”
6 Vua đáp, “Ngươi hãy giữ lời hứa của mình. Đi mai táng cha ngươi đi.”
7 Nên Giô-xép đi mai táng cha mình. Tất cả các quan võ, các quần thần và các nhà lãnh đạo của Ai-cập đều cùng đi với Giô-xép. 8 Tất cả mọi người trong nhà Giô-xép, các anh em ông và những người trong gia đình cha ông đều đi cùng Giô-xép. Họ chỉ để lại các con nhỏ, các bầy gia súc trong đất Gô-sen. 9 Họ đi với Giô-xép bằng xe và ngựa. Toán đi rất đông.
10 Khi đến sân đập lúa của Go-ren A-tát [a], gần sông Giô-đanh thì họ kêu khóc cho cha của Giô-xép rất thảm thiết. Thời kỳ than khóc của Giô-xép kéo dài bảy ngày. 11 Những người Ca-na-an thấy cảnh bi thảm ở sân đập lúa của A-tát thì bảo nhau, “Những người Ai-cập than khóc thật bi thảm!” Cho nên ngày nay người ta gọi chỗ đó là A-bên-mi-ra-im. [b]
12 Các con của Gia-cốp làm y theo lời trối của cha mình. 13 Họ mang xác ông về đất Ca-na-an và mai táng trong hang nơi đồng ruộng Mặc-bê-la gần Mam-rê. Áp-ra-ham đã mua hang và ruộng đó từ Ép-rôn, người Hê-tít để dùng làm nơi mai táng. 14 Sau khi chôn cất cha xong, Giô-xép trở về Ai-cập cùng với các anh em mình và những người đi theo dự lễ mai táng cha ông.
Các anh em sợ Giô-xép
15 Sau khi Gia-cốp qua đời, các anh em Giô-xép bảo nhau, “Lỡ Giô-xép vẫn còn tức giận mình thì sao? Mình đối xử tệ bạc với nó. Nó dám trả thù mình lắm.” 16 Cho nên họ nhắn với Giô-xép như sau, “Trước khi mất, cha có trối như thế nầy: 17 ‘Các anh con có lỗi và đối xử tệ bạc với con. Con hãy tha thứ cho chúng nó, tức các anh con. Chúng nó là tôi tớ của Thượng Đế của cha con.’”
Khi Giô-xép nghe như thế thì ông bật khóc. 18 Các anh em đến cùng Giô-xép, cúi lạy trước mặt ông và bảo, “Các anh đây là nô lệ của em.”
19 Giô-xép bảo họ, “Xin các anh đừng sợ. Em đâu có quyền thay Thượng Đế? 20 Các anh định hại em, nhưng Thượng Đế đã biến điều ác của các anh thành điều thiện để cứu mạng sống nhiều người, là điều đang được thực hiện. 21 Cho nên các anh đừng sợ. Em sẽ chăm sóc các anh và con cái các anh.” Giô-xép an ủi các anh em mình và dùng lời lẽ ôn hòa nói với họ.
22 Giô-xép tiếp tục sống trong xứ Ai-cập cùng với gia đình của cha mình. Ông qua đời khi được 110 tuổi. 23 Trong khi Giô-xép còn sống, Ép-ra-im sinh con cháu, và Ma-na-xe, con của Giô-xép cũng có một con trai tên Ma-kia. Giô-xép sống lâu và thấy được con cái của Ma-kia.
Giô-xép qua đời
24 Giô-xép trối cùng các anh em mình rằng, “Em sắp qua đời nhưng Thượng Đế sẽ chăm sóc các anh em. Ngài sẽ dẫn anh em ra khỏi xứ nầy để về xứ mà Ngài hứa ban cho Áp-ra-ham, Y-sác và Gia-cốp.”
25 Rồi Giô-xép bắt các con trai của Ít-ra-en cam kết. Ông bảo, “Các anh phải hứa sẽ mang hài cốt em ra khỏi Ai-cập.”
26 Giô-xép qua đời khi được một trăm mười tuổi. Các y sĩ tẩm liệm xác ông để chôn cất. Họ đặt xác ông vào một quan tài trong xứ Ai-cập.

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.

King James Version
50 And Joseph fell upon his father's face, and wept upon him, and kissed him.
2 And Joseph commanded his servants the physicians to embalm his father: and the physicians embalmed Israel.
3 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.
4 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,
5 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.
6 And Pharaoh said, Go up, and bury thy father, according as he made thee swear.
7 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,
8 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.
9 And there went up with him both chariots and horsemen: and it was a very great company.
10 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.
11 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 Abelmizraim, which is beyond Jordan.
12 And his sons did unto him according as he commanded them:
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 for a possession of a buryingplace of Ephron the Hittite, before Mamre.
14 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.
15 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.
16 And they sent a messenger unto Joseph, saying, Thy father did command before he died, saying,
17 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.
18 And his brethren also went and fell down before his face; and they said, Behold, we be thy servants.
19 And Joseph said unto them, Fear not: for am I in the place of God?
20 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.
21 Now therefore fear ye not: I will nourish you, and your little ones. And he comforted them, and spake kindly unto them.
22 And Joseph dwelt in Egypt, he, and his father's house: and Joseph lived an hundred and ten years.
23 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.
24 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.
25 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.
26 So Joseph died, being an hundred and ten years old: and they embalmed him, and he was put in a coffin in Egypt.
1 Mózes 50
Hungarian Bible: Easy-to-Read Version
Jákób temetése
50 József sírva borult meghalt apjára, és megcsókolta arcát. 2 Majd megparancsolta szolgáinak, az orvosoknak, hogy balzsamozzák be Jákób testét. Azok így is tettek. 3 Ez — a szokások szerint — negyven napig tartott. Az egyiptomiak 70 napig gyászolták Jákóbot.
4 Amikor ennek vége volt, József megkérte a fáraó hivatalnokait: „Kérlek, ha jóindulattal vagytok irántam, szóljatok érdekemben a fáraónak! Ezt mondjátok neki: 5 »Atyám, halála előtt megesketett engem, hogy abba a barlangba temessem, amelyet ő készített erre a célra magának Kánaán földjén. Ezért kérlek, hadd menjek el oda, hogy atyámat illendően eltemessem! Azután visszajövök.«”
6 A fáraó ezt üzente vissza: „Menj el nyugodtan, és temesd el atyádat esküd szerint!”
7 József tehát megszervezte a temetési menetet. Vele együtt mentek apja temetésére Kánaánba a fáraó hivatalnokai, udvarának fejedelmei és Egyiptom minden rendű-rangú előkelői, 8 meg József összes testvérei és rokonai, a gyermekek kivételével. Gósen földjén csak a gyermekek maradtak, és a jószág. 9 Még a fáraó seregének harci szekerei és lovasai is kísérték a menetet, amely igen hatalmas volt.
10 Amikor eljutottak Góren-Háátádig, amely a Jordántól keletre fekszik, ott József igen nagy gyászünnepet rendezett Izráel emlékezetére, amely hét napig tartott. 11 Akkor a kánaáni lakosok azt mondták: „Milyen nagy gyászt tartanak az egyiptomiak!” El is nevezték azt a helyet, a Jordántól keletre Ábél-Micráimnak[a], ami azt jelenti: „Egyiptom gyásza.”
12 Így Izráel fiai megtették, amit apjuk parancsolt nekik: 13 elvitték a holttestét Kánaán földjére, és eltemették abba a barlangba, amely Makpéla mezején van, Mamréval szemben. Ezt a mezőt a barlanggal együtt még Ábrahám vette meg temetkezőhelyül a hettita Efróntól. 14 Miután József befejezte apja temetését, testvéreivel és az összes kísérőkkel együtt visszatért Egyiptomba.
Isten jóra fordította még a rosszat is
15 József testvérei a temetés után azt mondták egymásnak: „Lehet, hogy József még mindig haragszik ránk, és most, hogy atyánk már nincs közöttünk, megbosszulja rajtunk, amit ellene vétkeztünk!” 16 Üzenetet küldtek hát Józsefnek: „Atyád még halála előtt megparancsolta nekünk, hogy 17 adjuk át neked üzenetét: »Kérlek, hogy bocsásd meg testvéreid bűnét, mert vétkeztek ellened, amikor rosszul bántak veled!« Most hát mi is kérünk, hogy bocsáss meg nekünk, mert mi is atyád Istenét szolgáljuk!”
József sírva fakadt, amikor ezt elmondták neki. 18 A testvérei ekkor elmentek Józsefhez, földre borultak előtte, és ezt mondták: „Lásd, mind a szolgáid vagyunk!”
19 De József ezt mondta nekik: „Ne féljetek, hiszen nem vagyok én Isten! 20 Igaz, hogy ti rossz szándékkal voltatok irántam, de Isten azt jóra fordította! Hiszen az volt a terve, hogy általam sokak életét megmentse — és ez így is történt! 21 Ne féljetek hát, továbbra is gondoskodom rólatok és gyermekeitekről!” Így megvigasztalta őket, és a lelkükre beszélt.
22 Ezek után József még sokáig élt Egyiptomban apja családjával együtt. Életideje 110 esztendő volt. 23 József megérte leszármazottjainak születését Efraim családjában a harmadik nemzedékig. Manassé fiának, Mákírnak is születtek gyermekei, akiket József még láthatott.
József rendelkezik temetéséről
24 Amikor József érezte, hogy közeledik élete vége, azt mondta testvéreinek: „Figyeljetek rám! Én ugyan nem sokáig élek már, de Isten bizonyosan meglátogat benneteket egyszer, és kivezet ebből az országból arra a földre, amelyet esküvel ígért Ábrahámnak, Izsáknak és Jákóbnak.” 25 József meg is eskette Izráel utódait, hogy amikor Isten meglátogatja őket, akkor feltétlenül vigyék magukkal[b] az ő csontjait is. 26 József 110 éves korában halt meg. Testét bebalzsamozták, és koporsóba tették Egyiptomban.
