Génesis 50
Nueva Biblia de las Américas

Sepultura de Jacob

50 José se echó sobre el rostro de su padre, lloró sobre él y lo besó. 2 José ordenó a sus siervos médicos que embalsamaran a su padre, y los médicos embalsamaron a Israel(A). 3 Se requerían[a] cuarenta días para ello[b], porque este es el tiempo requerido para el embalsamamiento[c]. Y los egipcios lo lloraron setenta días(B).

4 Cuando pasaron los días de luto[d] por él, José habló a la casa de Faraón: «Si he hallado ahora gracia ante los ojos de ustedes, les ruego que hablen a[e] Faraón, diciendo: 5 “Mi padre me hizo jurar(C), diciendo: ‘Yo voy a morir. En el sepulcro que cavé para mí en la tierra de Canaán, allí me sepultarás(D)’. Ahora pues, le ruego que me permita ir a sepultar a mi padre, y luego volveré”». 6 Y Faraón dijo: «Sube y sepulta a tu padre como él te hizo jurar».

7 Entonces José subió a sepultar a su padre, y con él subieron todos los siervos de Faraón, los ancianos de su casa y todos los ancianos de la tierra de Egipto, 8 y toda la casa de José, y sus hermanos, y la casa de su padre. Solo dejaron a sus pequeños, sus ovejas y sus vacas en la tierra de Gosén. 9 Subieron también con él carros y jinetes; y era un cortejo[f] muy grande.

10 Cuando llegaron hasta la era de Atad[g], que está al otro lado del Jordán, allí hicieron duelo con una grande y dolorosa[h] lamentación(E). Y José guardó[i] siete días de duelo por su padre. 11 Cuando los habitantes de la tierra, los cananeos, vieron el duelo de la era de Atad[j], dijeron: «Este es un duelo doloroso[k] de los egipcios». Por eso llamaron al lugar Abel Mizrayim[l], el cual está al otro lado del Jordán.

12 Sus hijos, pues, hicieron con él tal como les había mandado. 13 Pues sus hijos lo llevaron a la tierra de Canaán, y lo sepultaron en la cueva del campo de Macpela, frente a Mamre, la cual Abraham había comprado de Efrón el hitita, junto con el campo como heredad de una sepultura(F). 14 Después de sepultar a su padre, José regresó a Egipto, él y sus hermanos, y todos los que habían subido con él para sepultar a su padre.

Muerte de José

15 Al ver los hermanos de José que su padre había muerto, dijeron: «Quizá José guarde rencor contra nosotros, y de cierto nos devuelva todo el mal que le hicimos(G)». 16 Entonces enviaron[m] un mensaje a José, diciendo: «Tu padre mandó a decir antes de morir: 17 “Así dirán a José: ‘Te ruego que perdones la maldad de tus hermanos y su pecado, porque ellos te trataron mal’”. Y ahora, te rogamos que perdones la maldad de los siervos del Dios de tu padre». Y José lloró cuando le hablaron.

18 Entonces sus hermanos vinieron también y se postraron delante de él(H), y dijeron: «Ahora somos tus siervos». 19 Pero José les dijo: «No teman, ¿acaso estoy yo en lugar de Dios? 20 Ustedes pensaron hacerme mal, pero Dios lo cambió en bien para que sucediera como vemos hoy, y se preservara la vida de mucha gente(I). 21 Ahora pues, no teman. Yo proveeré para ustedes y para sus hijos[n](J)». Y los consoló y les habló cariñosamente[o].

22 José se quedó en Egipto, él y la casa de su padre; y José vivió 110 años. 23 José vio la tercera generación de los hijos de Efraín; también los hijos de Maquir, hijo de Manasés, nacieron sobre las rodillas de José(K).

24 Y José dijo a sus hermanos: «Yo voy a morir, pero Dios ciertamente cuidará de ustedes[p] y los hará subir de esta tierra a la tierra que Él prometió en juramento[q](L) a Abraham(M), a Isaac(N) y a Jacob(O)». 25 Luego José hizo jurar a los hijos de Israel, diciendo: «Dios ciertamente los cuidará[r], y ustedes se llevarán mis huesos de aquí(P)».

26 Y murió José a la edad de 110 años. Lo embalsamaron(Q) y lo pusieron en un ataúd en Egipto.

Génesis 50
Reina-Valera 1960

50 Entonces se echó José sobre el rostro de su padre, y lloró sobre él, y lo besó. 2 Y mandó José a sus siervos los médicos que embalsamasen a su padre; y los médicos embalsamaron a Israel. 3 Y le cumplieron cuarenta días, porque así cumplían los días de los embalsamados, y lo lloraron los egipcios setenta días.

4 Y pasados los días de su luto, habló José a los de la casa de Faraón, diciendo: Si he hallado ahora gracia en vuestros ojos, os ruego que habléis en oídos de Faraón, diciendo: 5 Mi padre me hizo jurar, diciendo: He aquí que voy a morir; en el sepulcro que cavé para mí en la tierra de Canaán, allí me sepultarás;(A) ruego, pues, que vaya yo ahora y sepulte a mi padre, y volveré. 6 Y Faraón dijo: Ve, y sepulta a tu padre, como él te hizo jurar. 7 Entonces José subió para sepultar a su padre; y subieron con él todos los siervos de Faraón, los ancianos de su casa, y todos los ancianos de la tierra de Egipto, 8 y toda la casa de José, y sus hermanos, y la casa de su padre; solamente dejaron en la tierra de Gosén sus niños, y sus ovejas y sus vacas. 9 Subieron también con él carros y gente de a caballo, y se hizo un escuadrón muy grande. 10 Y llegaron hasta la era de Atad, que está al otro lado del Jordán, y endecharon allí con grande y muy triste lamentación; y José hizo a su padre duelo por siete días. 11 Y viendo los moradores de la tierra, los cananeos, el llanto en la era de Atad, dijeron: Llanto grande es este de los egipcios; por eso fue llamado su nombre Abel-mizraim,[a] que está al otro lado del Jordán. 12 Hicieron, pues, sus hijos con él según les había mandado; 13 pues lo llevaron sus hijos a la tierra de Canaán, y lo sepultaron en la cueva del campo de Macpela, la que había comprado Abraham con el mismo campo, para heredad de sepultura, de Efrón el heteo, al oriente de Mamre.(B) 14 Y volvió José a Egipto, él y sus hermanos, y todos los que subieron con él a sepultar a su padre, después que lo hubo sepultado.

Muerte de José

15 Viendo los hermanos de José que su padre era muerto, dijeron: Quizá nos aborrecerá José, y nos dará el pago de todo el mal que le hicimos. 16 Y enviaron a decir a José: Tu padre mandó antes de su muerte, diciendo: 17 Así diréis a José: Te ruego que perdones ahora la maldad de tus hermanos y su pecado, porque mal te trataron; por tanto, ahora te rogamos que perdones la maldad de los siervos del Dios de tu padre. Y José lloró mientras hablaban. 18 Vinieron también sus hermanos y se postraron delante de él, y dijeron: Henos aquí por siervos tuyos. 19 Y les respondió José: No temáis; ¿acaso estoy yo en lugar de Dios? 20 Vosotros pensasteis mal contra mí, mas Dios lo encaminó a bien, para hacer lo que vemos hoy, para mantener en vida a mucho pueblo. 21 Ahora, pues, no tengáis miedo; yo os sustentaré a vosotros y a vuestros hijos. Así los consoló, y les habló al corazón.

22 Y habitó José en Egipto, él y la casa de su padre; y vivió José ciento diez años. 23 Y vio José los hijos de Efraín hasta la tercera generación; también los hijos de Maquir hijo de Manasés fueron criados sobre las rodillas de José. 24 Y José dijo a sus hermanos: Yo voy a morir; mas Dios ciertamente os visitará, y os hará subir de esta tierra a la tierra que juró a Abraham, a Isaac y a Jacob. 25 E hizo jurar José a los hijos de Israel, diciendo: Dios ciertamente os visitará, y haréis llevar de aquí mis huesos.(C) 26 Y murió José a la edad de ciento diez años; y lo embalsamaron, y fue puesto en un ataúd en Egipto.

Genesis 50
Wycliffe Bible

50 Which thing Joseph saw, and he fell on his father’s face, and wept, and kissed him;

2 and he commanded his servants, (the) leeches, that they should anoint his father with sweet smelling spiceries. (and he commanded the physicians, his servants, to anoint his father with sweet smelling spices.)

3 While they fulfilled his behests, forty days passed, for this was the custom of dead bodies (that were) anointed; and Egypt bewept him (for) seventy days.

4 And when the time of wailing was fulfilled, Joseph spake to the household of Pharaoh, (and said,) If I have found grace in your sight, speak ye in the ears of Pharaoh (If I have found grace before you, speak ye to Pharaoh for me);

5 for my father charged me [with (an) oath], and said, Lo! I die; thou shalt bury me in my sepulchre which I digged to me in the land of Canaan; therefore I shall go up that I bury my father, and I shall turn again. (for my father charged me with an oath, and said, Lo! now I die; and thou shalt bury me in my grave which I dug for myself in the land of Canaan; and so let me go up now, that I bury my father, and then I shall return.)

6 And Pharaoh said to him, Go up, and bury thy father, as thou art charged.

7 And when Joseph went up, all the elder men of the house of Pharaoh went with him, and all the greater men in birth of the land of Egypt; (And when Joseph went up, all the elders of Pharaoh’s household, and all the men of great age, that is, the elders, of the land of Egypt, went up with him;)

8 (and all) the house of Joseph with their brethren, (but) without (the) little children, and flocks, and great beasts, which they left in the land of Goshen, went with him. (and all of Joseph’s household, and his brothers, went with him, but not their little children, or their flocks, or their great beasts, which they left in the land of Goshen.)

9 And he had chariots, and horsemen, and (his) fellowship (with him), and the company was made not little.

10 And they came to the cornfloor of Atad, which is set over Jordan, where they made the service of the dead body, with great wailing and strong, and filled seven days. (And they came to the threshing floor of Atad, which is on the east side of the Jordan River, where they held a service for the dead man, with much loud wailing, and filled seven days there.)

11 And when the dwellers of the land of Canaan had seen this, they said, This is a (time of) great wailing to the Egyptians; therefore they called the name of that place The wailing of Egypt. (And when the people of the land of Canaan had seen this, they said, This is a time of great wailing, or of great mourning, for the Egyptians; and so they named that place Abelmizraim.)

12 Therefore the sons of Jacob did, as he had commanded to them; (And so Jacob’s sons did, as he had commanded them;)

13 and they bare him into the land of Canaan, and they buried him in the double den, which den with the field Abraham had bought of Ephron (the) Hittite, against the face of Mamre, into possession of a sepulchre. (and they carried his body to the land of Canaan, and they buried him in the cave in the field at Machpelah, east of Mamre, which Abraham had bought for a burial place from Ephron the Hittite.)

14 And Joseph turned again into Egypt with his brethren and all the fellowship, when his father was buried. (And after his father was buried, Joseph returned to Egypt with his brothers, and with all of his fellowship.)

15 And when their father was dead, the brethren of Joseph dreaded, and spake together, (and said,) Lest peradventure he be mindful of the wrong which he suffered, and yield to us all the evil, that we did. (And now that their father was dead, Joseph’s brothers were afraid, and spoke together, and said, Perhaps he shall remember all the wrong, or all the harm, which he suffered because of us, and give back to us all the evil that we did to him, and so we must ask him for mercy.)

16 And (so) they sent (a message) to him, and said, Thy father commanded to us, before that he died,

17 that we should say to thee these things by his words; I beseech thee, that thou forget the wickedness of thy brethren, and the sin, and [the] malice that they haunted against thee; also we pray thee, that thou forgive this wickedness (which we did) to thy father, the servant of God. When these things were heard, Joseph wept. (that we should say these words of his to thee; My son, I beseech thee, that thou forget the wickedness of thy brothers, and the sin, and the malice that they did against thee; and we also pray thee, that thou forgive our wickedness, for we, like thee, be servants of the God of thy father. And when Joseph heard this message, he wept.)

18 And his brethren came to him, and worshipped low to the earth (and bowed low to the ground before him), and said, We be thy servants.

19 To which he answered, Do not ye dread; whether we may against-stand God’s will? (To whom he answered, Do not ye fear; for can we stand against God’s will?)

20 Ye thought evil of me, and God turned it into good, that he should enhance me, as ye see in this present time, and that he should make safe many peoples; (Ye thought to do evil to me, but God turned it into good, and he used what you did to me to advance me, as ye see at this present time, and by doing so he hath saved many people;)

21 do not ye dread (do not ye fear), I shall feed you and your little children. And he comforted them, and spake sweetly and lightly to them;

22 and Joseph dwelled in Egypt, with all the house of his father (and Joseph lived in Egypt, with all of his father’s household, or all of his father’s family). And he lived an hundred [and ten] years,

23 and he saw the sons of Ephraim till to the third generation; also the sons of Machir, the son of Manasseh, were borne in the knees of Joseph (were brought up on Joseph’s knees).

24 When these things were done, Joseph spake to his brethren, (and said,) After my death God shall visit you, and he shall make you to go up from this land to the land which he swore to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. (When these things were done, Joseph said to his brothers, Soon I shall die, but someday, God shall visit you, and he shall lead you out of this land to the land which he promised to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.)

25 And when Joseph had charged them (with an oath), and had said, God shall visit you, bear ye out with you my bones from this place; (And when Joseph had charged them with an oath, and had said, When God shall visit you, take ye my bones away with you from this place;)

26 he died, when an hundred and ten years of his life were filled (then he died, when he was a hundred and ten years old); and he was anointed with sweet smelling spiceries, and he was kept in a bier in Egypt.

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.
