1 Иосиф пал на лице отца своего, и плакал над ним, и целовал его.
1 Joseph fell on his father’s face, wept on him, and kissed him.
2 И повелел Иосиф слугам своим — врачам, бальзамировать отца его; и врачи набальзамировали Израиля.
2 Joseph commanded his servants, the physicians, to embalm his father; and the physicians embalmed Israel.
3 И исполнилось ему сорок дней, ибо столько дней употребляется на бальзамирование, и оплакивали его Египтяне семьдесят дней.
3 Forty days were used for him, for that is how many days it takes to embalm. The Egyptians wept for Israel for seventy days.
4 Когда же прошли дни плача по нем, Иосиф сказал придворным фараона, говоря: если я обрел благоволение в очах ваших, то скажите фараону так:
4 When 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,
5 отец мой заклял меня, сказав: вот, я умираю; во гробе моем, который я выкопал себе в земле Ханаанской, там похорони меня. И теперь хотел бы я пойти и похоронить отца моего и возвратиться. [Слова Иосифа пересказали фараону.]
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.’”
6 И сказал фараон: пойди и похорони отца твоего, как он заклял тебя.
6 Pharaoh said, “Go up, and bury your father, just like he made you swear.”
7 И пошел Иосиф хоронить отца своего. И пошли с ним все слуги фараона, старейшины дома его и все старейшины земли Египетской,
7 Joseph 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,
8 и весь дом Иосифа, и братья его, и дом отца его. Только детей своих и мелкий и крупный скот свой оставили в земле Гесем.
8 all 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.
9 С ним отправились также колесницы и всадники, так что сонм был весьма велик.
9 Both chariots and horsemen went up with him. It was a very great company.
10 И дошли они до Горен—гаатада при Иордане и плакали там плачем великим и весьма сильным; и сделал Иосиф плач по отце своем семь дней.
10 They 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.
11 И видели жители земли той, Хананеи, плач в Горен—гаатаде, и сказали: велик плач этот у Египтян! Посему наречено имя [месту] тому: плач Египтян, что при Иордане.
11 When 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.
12 И сделали сыновья Иакова с ним, как он заповедал им;
12 His sons did to him just as he commanded them,
13 и отнесли его сыновья его в землю Ханаанскую и похоронили его в пещере на поле Махпела, которую купил Авраам с полем в собственность для погребения у Ефрона Хеттеянина, пред Мамре.
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, as a possession for a burial site, from Ephron the Hittite, near Mamre.
14 И возвратился Иосиф в Египет, сам и братья его и все ходившие с ним хоронить отца его, после погребения им отца своего.
14 Joseph returned into Egypt—he, and his brothers, and all that went up with him to bury his father, after he had buried his father.
15 И увидели братья Иосифовы, что умер отец их, и сказали: что, если Иосиф возненавидит нас и захочет отмстить нам за всё зло, которое мы ему сделали?
15 When 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.”
16 И послали они сказать Иосифу: отец твой пред смертью своею завещал, говоря:
16 They sent a message to Joseph, saying, “Your father commanded before he died, saying,
17 так скажите Иосифу: прости братьям твоим вину и грех их, так как они сделали тебе зло. И ныне прости вины рабов Бога отца твоего. Иосиф плакал, когда ему говорили это.
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.
18 Пришли и сами братья его, и пали пред лицем его, и сказали: вот, мы рабы тебе.
18 His brothers also went and fell down before his face; and they said, “Behold, we are your servants.”
19 И сказал Иосиф: не бойтесь, ибо я боюсь Бога;
19 Joseph said to them, “Don’t be afraid, for am I in the place of God?
20 вот, вы умышляли против меня зло; но Бог обратил это в добро, чтобы сделать то, что теперь есть: сохранить жизнь великому числу людей;
20 As for you, you meant evil against me, but God meant it for good, to save many people alive, as is happening today.
21 итак не бойтесь: я буду питать вас и детей ваших. И успокоил их и говорил по сердцу их.
21 Now therefore don’t be afraid. I will provide for you and your little ones.” He comforted them, and spoke kindly to them.
22 И жил Иосиф в Египте сам и дом отца его; жил же Иосиф всего сто десять лет.
22 Joseph lived in Egypt, he, and his father’s house. Joseph lived one hundred ten years.
23 И видел Иосиф детей у Ефрема до третьего рода, также и сыновья Махира, сына Манассиина, родились на колени Иосифа.
23 Joseph saw Ephraim’s children to the third generation. The children also of Machir, the son of Manasseh, were born on Joseph’s knees.
24 И сказал Иосиф братьям своим: я умираю, но Бог посетит вас и выведет вас из земли сей в землю, о которой клялся Аврааму, Исааку и Иакову.
24 Joseph 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.”
25 И заклял Иосиф сынов Израилевых, говоря: Бог посетит вас, и вынесите кости мои отсюда.
25 Joseph took an oath from the children of Israel, saying, “God will surely visit you, and you shall carry up my bones from here.”
26 И умер Иосиф ста десяти лет. И набальзамировали его и положили в ковчег в Египте.
26 So Joseph died, being one hundred ten years old, and they embalmed him, and he was put in a coffin in Egypt.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
For the same Scripture speaks thus of Joseph: "And Joseph dwelt in Egypt, he and his brethren, and all his father's house: and Joseph lived 110 years, and saw Ephraim's children of the third generation." That is, his great-grandson, the third from Ephraim; for the third generation means son, grandson, great-grandson.

Then it is added, "The children also of Machir, the son of Manasseh, were born upon Joseph's knees." And this is that grandson of Manasseh, and great-grandson of Joseph.
