6Joseph ngehna chu Pharaoh in aphasah tai. “Napan nangma nakitep sahna bangin chen lang gavui tan,” ati.Pharaoh replied, “Go up and bury your father, as he made you swear to do.”

7Hichun Joseph chu apa vui din achetan ahile Pharaoh in alhonpi dingin Egypt gamsunga alen alal ho ahin asohte ahin, asemang pachong ho jouse toh asol than ahi.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—

11Agamsung mi, Canaan miten Atad changvohna mun'a amaho lunghem tah a aumu chu amu uvin, hiche mun chu (Jordan toh kinai ahi) Abel- Mizraim, tin akhel uvin, hichu “Egypt mite dia nasatah a puldouna mun” tin asei uve.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.

12Hichun Jacob chaten apau thupeh bang bangin abolpeh un ahi.So Jacob’s sons did as he had charged them.

13Ama hon apa longdamsa chu Canaan gam'a apolut tauvin Mamre kom'a Macphelah loumun a Abraham'in hiche mun chu Hit mipa Ephron kom'a atonsot a kivui theina dinga ana choh na mun achun avui tauvin ahi.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.

14Jacob avuijou chun Joseph ahin asopi te ho jouse chule midang akilhonpi jouse Egypt gam'a ahung kinungle tauvin ahi.After Joseph had buried his father, he returned to Egypt with his brothers and all who had gone with him to bury his father.

15Ahin tua hi amaho apao umtah lou jeh chun Joseph sopi ho chu hatah in ahung tija tauvin, ama hon aseiyun, “Joseph chun alunghanna ho eihon ina bolset nau jouse chu ahin phulah ding ahi,” atiuve.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.”

16Hijeh chun ama hon hiche thucheng ho hi Joseph athot tauve: napan athi masang chun hitin eina thulhah uvinSo they sent word to Joseph, saying, “Before he died, your father commanded,

17Na heng'a kasei diuvin: na sopi ten na chunga thil gilou abol uva suhkhel anei nau chu ngaidam in.” Hijeh chun, keiho napa Pathen sohten, ka suhkhel nau chu nei ngaidamun tia katao u ahi.” Hiche thu thot amu chun Joseph akap tai.‘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.

18Hichun asopi ho ahungun Joseph masanga akun tauvin ahi. “Ven, keiho hi nasohte kahiuve.” atiuve.His brothers also came to him, bowed down before him, and said, “We are your slaves!”

19Ahin Joseph in, “Nangho tija hih un, keima Pathen beh kahia nangho kagimbol ding ham?” tin adonbut e.But Joseph replied, “Do not be afraid. Am I in the place of God?

20Nang hon kachunga thil phalou na-na gong un ahin Pathen'in aphalam tah in ahin gong e. Hiche panmun chan eilhut a tua ka mite mihem tamtah hinkho huhhing'a um thei ahi.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.

21Ahipoi, nangho kicha hih un. Keiman nangho nahiuvin nachate hou ahin kavetkol jom jing diu ahi,” ati. Chuti chun aman asopi ho chu nunnem tah in alhamon kit un ahi.Therefore do not be afraid. I will provide for you and your little ones.” So Joseph reassured his brothers and spoke kindly to them.

22Chuti chun Joseph ahin asopi te ho jouse Egypt a acheng jing uvin ahi. Joseph chu atahsa kum jakhat le som alhing tan ahi.Now Joseph and his father’s household remained in Egypt, and Joseph lived to the age of 110.

23Chuin Joseph in khang thum channa geiya Ephraim chilhah ho jong amun chujongleh Joseph thagui a peng Manasseh chapa Machir chate jong ana mupeh in ahi.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.

24Chuin Joseph in asopite jah a, “Keivang kathina ding anailam tai,” “ahivangin Pathen'in nangho nahungvil teiyun tin, Egypt gam a kon hin Abraham, Isaac chule Jacob henga ana kihahselna gama dingin nahin puitou vunte,” ati.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.”

25Hichun Joseph in Israel chate chu aki tepsah in chuin aman hitin aseiye, “Pathen'in nahin kithopiuva hiche mun'a konna nahung pui teng ule hiche mun'a konna kagu kachang ho hi na nungpoh tei-tei diu ahi,” ati.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.”

26Hichun Joseph kum jakhat le kum som ahin ahinkho abeitai. Hichun Egypt miten Joseph longdamsa chu atom un athikong chu Egypt gamsunga thingkong sunga akoi tauve.So Joseph died at the age of 110. And they embalmed his body and placed it in a coffin in Egypt.
