1Joseph fell on his father’s face, wept on him, and kissed him.
1约瑟 伏在他父亲的面上哀哭，与他亲嘴。
2Joseph commanded his servants, the physicians, to embalm his father; and the physicians embalmed Israel.
2约瑟 吩咐伺候他的医生用香料薰他父亲，医生就用香料薰了 以色列 。
3Forty days were used for him, for that is how many days it takes to embalm. The Egyptians wept for Israel for seventy days.
3薰尸的常例是四十天；那四十天满了， 埃及 人为他哀哭了七十天。
4When the days of weeping for him were past, Joseph spoke to Pharaoh’s staff, saying, “If now I have found favor in your eyes, please speak in the ears of Pharaoh, saying,
4为他哀哭的日子过了， 约瑟 对法老家中的人说：「我若在你们眼前蒙恩，请你们报告法老说：
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.’”
5『我父亲要死的时候叫我起誓说：你要将我葬在 迦南 地，在我为自己所掘的坟墓里。』现在求你让我上去葬我父亲，以后我必回来。」
6Pharaoh said, “Go up, and bury your father, just like he made you swear.”
6法老说：「你可以上去，照着你父亲叫你起的誓，将他葬埋。」
7Joseph 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,
7于是 约瑟 上去葬他父亲。与他一同上去的，有法老的臣仆和法老家中的长老，并 埃及 国的长老，
8all 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.
8还有 约瑟 的全家和他的弟兄们，并他父亲的眷属；只有他们的 妇人 孩子，和羊群牛群，都留在 歌珊 地。
9Both chariots and horsemen went up with him. It was a very great company.
9又有车辆马兵，和他一同上去；那一帮人甚多。
10They 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.
10他们到了 约旦河 外、 亚达 的禾场，就在那里大大地号咷痛哭。 约瑟 为他父亲哀哭了七天。
11When 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.
11迦南 的居民见 亚达 禾场上的哀哭，就说：「这是 埃及 人一场极大的哀哭。」因此那地方名叫 亚伯·麦西 ，是在 约旦河 东。
12His sons did to him just as he commanded them,
12雅各 的儿子们就遵着他父亲所吩咐的办了，
13for 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.
13把他搬到 迦南 地，葬在 幔利 前、 麦比拉 田间的洞里；那洞和田是 亚伯拉罕 向 赫 人 以弗 买来为业，作坟地的。
14Joseph returned into Egypt—he, and his brothers, and all that went up with him to bury his father, after he had buried his father.
14约瑟 葬了他父亲以后，就和众弟兄，并一切同他上去葬他父亲的人，都回 埃及 去了。
15When 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.”
15约瑟 的哥哥们见父亲死了，就说：「或者 约瑟 怀恨我们，照着我们从前待他一切的恶足足地报复我们。」
16They sent a message to Joseph, saying, “Your father commanded before he died, saying,
16他们就打发人去见 约瑟 ，说：「你父亲未死以先吩咐说：
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.
17『你们要对 约瑟 这样说：从前你哥哥们恶待你，求你饶恕他们的过犯和罪恶。』如今求你饶恕你父亲 神之仆人的过犯。」他们对 约瑟 说这话， 约瑟 就哭了。
18His brothers also went and fell down before his face; and they said, “Behold, we are your servants.”
18他的哥哥们又来俯伏在他面前，说：「我们是你的仆人。」
19Joseph said to them, “Don’t be afraid, for am I in the place of God?
19约瑟 对他们说：「不要害怕，我岂能代替 神呢？
20As for you, you meant evil against me, but God meant it for good, to save many people alive, as is happening today.
20从前你们的意思是要害我，但 神的意思原是好的，要保全许多人的性命，成就今日的光景。
21Now therefore don’t be afraid. I will provide for you and your little ones.” He comforted them, and spoke kindly to them.
21现在你们不要害怕，我必养活你们和你们的 妇人 孩子。」于是 约瑟 用亲爱的话安慰他们。
22Joseph lived in Egypt, he, and his father’s house. Joseph lived one hundred ten years.
22约瑟 和他父亲的眷属都住在 埃及 。 约瑟 活了一百一十岁。
23Joseph saw Ephraim’s children to the third generation. The children also of Machir, the son of Manasseh, were born on Joseph’s knees.
23约瑟 得见 以法莲 第三代的子孙。 玛拿西 的孙子、 玛吉 的儿子也养在 约瑟 的膝上。
24Joseph 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.”
24约瑟 对他弟兄们说：「我要死了，但 神必定看顾你们，领你们从这地上去，到他起誓所应许给 亚伯拉罕 、 以撒 、 雅各 之地。」
25Joseph took an oath from the children of Israel, saying, “God will surely visit you, and you shall carry up my bones from here.”
25约瑟 叫 以色列 的子孙起誓说：「 神必定看顾你们；你们要把我的骸骨从这里搬上去。」
26So Joseph died, being one hundred ten years old, and they embalmed him, and he was put in a coffin in Egypt.
26约瑟 死了，正一百一十岁。人用香料将他薰了，把他收殓在棺材里，停在 埃及 。
