1. 1CMNCBT約瑟伏在父親身上痛哭，親吻他，BSBBSB: Then Joseph fell upon his father’s face, wept over him, and kissed him.
2. 2CMNCBT然後吩咐醫生用香料保存父親的遺體。醫生遵命而行，BSBBSB: And Joseph directed the physicians in his service to embalm his father Israel. So they embalmed him,
3. 3CMNCBT按照常例花了四十天用香料處理遺體。埃及人為他哀悼七十天。BSBBSB: taking the forty days required to complete the embalming. And the Egyptians mourned for him seventy days.
4. 4CMNCBT哀悼的日子完了，約瑟對法老宮中的人說：「如果你們恩待我，BSBBSB: When the days of mourning had passed, Joseph said to Pharaoh’s court, “If I have found favor in your eyes, please tell Pharaoh that
5. 5CMNCBT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。」BSBBSB: my father made me swear an oath when he said, ‘I am about to die. You must bury me in the tomb that I dug for myself in the land of Canaan.’ Now let me go and bury my father, and then return.”
6. 6CMNCBT法老說：「去按照你的誓言埋葬你父親吧。」BSBBSB: Pharaoh replied, “Go up and bury your father, as he made you swear to do.”
7. 7CMNCBT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顯貴，BSBBSB: Then Joseph went to bury his father, and all the servants of Pharaoh accompanied him—the elders of Pharaoh’s household and all the elders of the land of Egypt—
8. 8CMNCBT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。BSBBSB: along with all of Joseph’s household, and his brothers, and his father’s household. Only their children and flocks and herds were left in Goshen.
9. 9CMNCBT隨行的還有大隊車輛和騎兵，人數眾多。BSBBSB: Chariots and horsemen alike went up with him, and it was an exceedingly large procession.
10. 10CMNCBT他們來到約旦河附近的亞達麥場，在那裡痛哭哀悼。約瑟為父親哭喪七天。BSBBSB: When they reached the threshing floor of Atad, which is across the Jordan, they lamented and wailed loudly, and Joseph mourned for his father seven days.
11. 11CMNCBT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。BSBBSB: When the Canaanites of the land saw the mourning at the threshing floor of Atad, they said, “This is a solemn ceremony of mourning by the Egyptians.” Thus the place across the Jordan is called Abel-mizraim.
12. 12CMNCBT雅各的兒子們遵照父親的遺言，BSBBSB: So Jacob’s sons did as he had charged them.
13. 13CMNCBT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。BSBBSB: They carried him to the land of Canaan and buried him in the cave at Machpelah in the field near Mamre, which Abraham had purchased from Ephron the Hittite as a burial site.
14. 14CMNCBT葬禮之後，約瑟就跟眾弟兄和一切隨行的人返回埃及。BSBBSB: After Joseph had buried his father, he returned to Egypt with his brothers and all who had gone with him to bury his father.
15. 15CMNCBT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？」BSBBSB: When Joseph’s brothers saw that their father was dead, they said, “What if Joseph bears a grudge? Then he will surely repay us for all the evil that we did to him.”
16. 16CMNCBT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，BSBBSB: So they sent word to Joseph, saying, “Before he died, your father commanded,
17. 17CMNCBT『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。BSBBSB: ‘This is what you are to say to Joseph: I beg you, please forgive the transgression and sin of your brothers, for they did you wrong.’ So now, Joseph, please forgive the transgression of the servants of the God of your father.” When their message came to him, Joseph wept.
18. 18CMNCBT約瑟的哥哥們來見他，俯伏在他面前，說：「我們是你的奴僕。」BSBBSB: His brothers also came to him, bowed down before him, and said, “We are your slaves!”
19. 19CMNCBT約瑟對他們說：「你們不要害怕，我豈能代替上帝？BSBBSB: But Joseph replied, “Do not be afraid. Am I in the place of God?
20. 20CMNCBT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。BSBBSB: As for you, what you intended against me for evil, God intended for good, in order to accomplish a day like this—to preserve the lives of many people.
21. 21CMNCBT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。BSBBSB: Therefore do not be afraid. I will provide for you and your little ones.” So Joseph reassured his brothers and spoke kindly to them.
22. 22CMNCBT約瑟和他父親全家住在埃及。約瑟享年一百一十歲。BSBBSB: Now Joseph and his father’s household remained in Egypt, and Joseph lived to the age of 110.
23. 23CMNCBT他看到了以法蓮的孫子，也曾把瑪拿西的兒子瑪吉剛出生的孩子抱在膝上。BSBBSB: He saw Ephraim’s sons to the third generation, and indeed the sons of Machir son of Manasseh were brought up on Joseph’s knees.
24. 24CMNCBT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。」BSBBSB: Then Joseph said to his brothers, “I am about to die, but God will surely visit you and bring you up from this land to the land He promised on oath to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.”
25. 25CMNCBT約瑟讓以色列的子孫起了誓，並說：「上帝必看顧你們，你們要把我的骸骨帶回迦南。」BSBBSB: And Joseph made the sons of Israel take an oath and said, “God will surely attend to you, and then you must carry my bones up from this place.”
26. 26CMNCBT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。BSBBSB: So Joseph died at the age of 110. And they embalmed his body and placed it in a coffin in Egypt.
