Literal Version

50Then Yosef hugged his father and cried over him and kissed him. 2Then he commanded those of his servants who were physicians to embalm his father. So Yisra’el’s body was embalmed 3over the next forty days (which is the normal time for embalming), and the Egyptians mourned for him for seventy days.

4After those mourning days were over, Yosef spoke to Far’oh’s servants, saying, “Please, if I have found favour in your eyes, please tell Far’oh that 5my father made me swear, saying, ‘Listen, I am dying. You must bury me in my grave that I dug for myself in Canaan.’ So now, please ask Far’oh to let me go up there and bury my father, then I’ll return.”[ref]

6“Go up and bury your father just like he made you promise.” was the reply back from Far’oh.

7So Yosef went up to Canaan to bury his father. Far’oh’s servants went with him, along with the elders from Far’oh’s household and all the elders of the land of Egypt. 8Yosef’s own household also went, along with his brothers and his father’s household. They only left their children and their livestock behind in Goshen. 9There were chariots as well as soldiers mounted on horses so it was a very large procession.

10After they crossed the Jordan river, they arrived at Atad’s threshing floor, and they mourned there for seven days with very loud wailing. 11The local Canaanite people saw the mourning at Atad’s threshing floor, and they said, “This is very serious mourning for the Egyptians.” That’s why they then named that place across the Jordan ‘Abel Mizraim’ (which means ‘the Egyptians mourned here’).

12So Yacob’s sons did everything just how he’d instructed them. 13They carried his embalmed body to Canaan and buried him in the cave in Machpelah’s field. Abraham had bought with the field with the included cave from Ephron the Hittite as property for a burial place, in front of Mamre.[ref] 14Then after his father’s burial was completed, Yosef returned to Egypt along with his brothers and everyone who had gone up with him to bury him.

50:15 Yosef forgives his brothers

15Now that their father was no longer alive, Yosef’s brothers said to each other, “What if Yosef hates us and now he decides to repay us for all the evil things that we did to him?” 16So they sent a messenger to Yosef to tell him, “Before he died, your father ordered that 17you be given this message: ‘I beg you, please forgive your brothers’ crime and their sin, because they did evil things to you.’ So now, please forgive the crime of the servants of your father’s God.” When Yosef heard their message, he started crying.

18Then his brothers also came and bowed to the ground in front of him and pleaded, “Here we are. We belong to you as slaves.”

19“Don’t be afraid,” Yosef answered. “I’m not God and it’s not my job to decide on your punishment. 20You all plotted evil things against me, but God intended it for good in order to do what he’s doing this very day: to save many people. 21So now, don’t be afraid. I’ll support you and your little ones.” So he reassured them and he spoke kindly to them.

15And_they_saw the_brothers of_Yōşēf DOM_that he_had_died father_their and_they_said if bears_a_grudge_against_us Yōşēf and_to_repay he_will_repay to/for_us DOM all the_wrong which we_dealt_out_to DOM_him/it.

50:22 Yosef’s death

22Yosef continued to live in Egypt, along with the rest of his father Yacob’s family, until he was 110 years old. 23He lived long enough to see his son Ephraim’s children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. The children of his grandson Machir, who was Manasseh’s son, also grew up around him. 24Then one day Yosef said to his brothers, “I’m about to die, but God will definitely help you all and take you and your descendants from this country to the land that he vowed to give to Abraham, Yitshak, and Yacob. 25When God does that, you must take my body back to Canaan with you and bury it there.” Then Yosef had his brothers and the rest of the descendants of Yisra’el vow that they would do that.[ref] 26Then Yosef died at the age of 110, and the specialists embalmed his body and it was put in a coffin in a tomb in Egypt.


22And_he/it_sat_down//remained//lived Yōşēf in/on/at/with_Miʦrayim/(Egypt) he and_family his/its_father and_he/it_lived Yōşēf one_hundred and_ten years.
