Genesis 47

Studie

   

1 Ja Joosep läks ja teatas vaaraole ning ütles: 'Mu isa ja vennad ja nende lambad, kitsed ja veised ja kõik, mis neil oli, on tulnud Kaananimaalt, ja vaata, nad on Gooseni maakonnas.'

2 Ja ta võttis oma vendade hulgast viis meest ja tõi need vaarao ette.

3 Ja vaarao küsis tema vendadelt: 'Mis teie amet on?' Ja nad vastasid vaaraole: 'Su sulased on lambakarjased, niihästi meie ise kui meie isad.'

4 Ja nad ütlesid vaaraole: 'Me oleme maale tulnud võõrastena elama, sest su sulaste karjale ei olnud sööta, kuna Kaananimaal on kange nälg. Luba siis nüüd oma sulaseid elada Gooseni maakonnas!'

5 Ja vaarao rääkis Joosepiga, öeldes: 'Sinu isa ja vennad on su juurde tulnud.

6 Egiptusemaa on su ees lahti, pane oma isa ja vennad elama parimasse maakonda. Elagu nad Gooseni maakonnas, ja kui sa tunned nende hulgast tublisid mehi, siis pane need mu karja ülevaatajaiks!'

7 Siis Joosep tõi sisse oma isa Jaakobi ja pani seisma vaarao ette; ja Jaakob õnnistas vaaraod.

8 Ja vaarao küsis Jaakobilt: 'Kui palju sul eluaastaid on?'

9 Ja Jaakob vastas vaaraole: 'Aastaid, mis ma võõrana olen elanud, on sada kolmkümmend aastat. Piskud ja kurjad on olnud mu eluaastad ja need ei ulatu mu isade eluaastateni nende võõrsiloleku ajal.'

10 Siis Jaakob õnnistas vaaraod ja läks ära vaarao juurest.

11 Ja Joosep paigutas oma isa ja vennad elama ja andis neile maaomandi Egiptusemaal kõige paremas maakonnas, Raamsese maakonnas, nagu vaarao oli käskinud.

12 Ja Joosep hoolitses leivaga oma isa ja vendade ja kogu isa pere eest, vastavalt nende väetite laste suudele.

13 Aga kogu maal ei olnud leiba, sest näljahäda oli väga kange, ja Egiptusemaa ja Kaananimaa olid näljast nõrkemas.

14 Ja Joosep kogus kokku kõik Egiptusemaal ja Kaananimaal leiduva raha vilja eest, mida osteti; ja Joosep viis raha vaarao kotta.

15 Kui raha oli lõppenud Egiptusemaalt ja Kaananimaalt, siis tulid kõik egiptlased Joosepi juurde, öeldes: 'Anna meile leiba! Kas peame su silma ees surema, sellepärast et raha on otsas?'

16 Ja Joosep vastas: 'Andke oma loomad ja mina annan teile nende eest, kui raha on otsas.'

17 Ja nad tõid oma loomad Joosepile ja Joosep andis neile leiba hobuste, lamba- ja kitsekarjade, veisekarjade ja eeslite eest; nõnda muretses ta neile sel aastal leiba kõigi nende loomade eest.

18 Kui see aasta lõppes, siis järgmisel aastal tulid nad tema juurde ja ütlesid temale: 'Me ei saa oma isandale salata, et raha on otsas ja loomakarjad on meie isanda käes. Meil ei ole isanda ees muud üle jäänud kui ainult meie ihud ja põllumaa.

19 Kas peame su silma ees surema, niihästi me ise kui meie põllud? Osta meid ja meie põllud leiva eest, et me oma põldudega saaksime vaaraole orjadeks! Anna meile seemet, et jääksime elama ega sureks ja et põllud ei jääks tühjaks!'

20 Siis Joosep ostis vaaraole kogu Egiptuse põllumaa, sest egiptlased müüsid igaüks oma põllu, sellepärast et nälg ahistas neid. Nõnda sai maa vaarao omaks.

21 Ja ta tegi rahva tema orjaks, Egiptuse ühest äärest teiseni.

22 Ainult preestrite põldusid ta ei ostnud, sest preestritel oli sissetulek vaaraolt ja nemad elatusid sissetulekust, mida vaarao neile andis; seepärast nemad ei müünud oma põldusid.

23 Ja Joosep ütles rahvale: 'Vaata, ma olen nüüd ostnud teid ja teie põllud vaaraole. Näe, siin on teile seemet, külvake see põldudele!

24 Aga saagist peate andma viiendiku vaaraole, kuna neli osa jäägu teie kätte teile põlluseemneks, samuti toiduks teile ja neile, kes teie peredes on, ja toiduks teie väetitele lastele.'

25 Ja nad vastasid: 'Sina oled meid elus hoidnud! Kui leiame armu oma isanda silmis, siis jääme vaaraole orjadeks.'

26 Ja Joosep tegi selle seaduseks Egiptuse põllumaa kohta tänapäevani, et vaaraole saab viiendik; ainult preestrite põllud ei saanud vaarao omaks.

27 Ja Iisrael jäi elama Egiptusemaale Gooseni maakonda; nad jäid sinna paigale, olid viljakad ja neid sai väga palju.

28 Ja Jaakob elas Egiptusemaal seitseteist aastat, ja Jaakobi päevi, tema eluaastaid, oli sada nelikümmend seitse aastat.

29 Kui Iisraeli surmapäev ligines, siis ta kutsus oma poja Joosepi ning ütles temale: 'Kui ma nüüd olen su silmis armu leidnud, siis pane oma käsi mu puusa alla ja osuta mulle heldust ja truudust: ära mata mind Egiptusesse,

30 sest ma tahan magada oma vanemate juures. Vii mind Egiptusest ära ja mata nende hauda!' Ja ta vastas: 'Ma teen su sõna järgi!'

31 Ja tema ütles: 'Vannu mulle!' Ja ta vandus temale. Siis Iisrael kummardas voodi peatsi poole.

6059. Genesis 47

1. And Joseph came and told Pharaoh, and said, My father and my brothers, and their flocks and their herds, and all that they have, have come from the land of Canaan, and behold, they are in the land of Goshen.

2. And from his brothers' party he took five men, and placed them before Pharaoh.

3. And Pharaoh said to his brothers, What are your works? 1 And they said to Pharaoh, Shepherds of the flock are your servants, both we and our fathers.

4. And they said to Pharaoh, We have come to sojourn in the land, for there is no pasture for the flock which belongs to your servants, for the famine is serious in the land of Canaan; and now let your servants, we beg you, dwell in the land of Goshen.

5. And Pharaoh said to Joseph - he said, Your fathers and your brothers have come to you.

6. The land of Egypt is before you; in the best of the land cause your father and your brothers to dwell; let them dwell in the land of Goshen. And if you know that there are among them men of energy, then set them as the chief men over the livestock belonging to me.

7. And Joseph caused Jacob his father to come and placed him before Pharaoh; and Jacob blessed Pharaoh.

8. And Pharaoh said to Jacob, How many are the days of the years of your life?

9. And Jacob said to Pharaoh, The days of the years of my sojournings are a hundred and thirty years; few and evil have been the days of the years of my life, and they have not attained to the days of the years of the life of my fathers, in the days of their sojournings.

10. And Jacob blessed Pharaoh, and went out from before Pharaoh.

11. And Joseph caused his father and his brothers to dwell, and gave them a possession in the land of Egypt, in the best of the land, in the land of Rameses, as Pharaoh had commanded.

12. And Joseph sustained his father, and his brothers, and all his father's household with bread, according to the mouth of a young child. 2

13. And there was no bread in all the land, for the famine was extremely serious; and the land of Egypt and the land of Canaan languished from the presence of the famine.

14. And Joseph gathered up all the silver found in the land of Egypt and in the land of Canaan, for the corn which they were buying; and Joseph caused the silver to come to Pharaoh's house.

15. And when the silver was used up in the land of Egypt and in the land of Canaan, all Egypt came to Joseph, saying, Give us bread; and why should we die near by you because the silver is lacking?

16. And Joseph said, Give your livestock, and I will give you [bread] in exchange for your livestock, if the silver is lacking.

17. And they caused their livestock to come to Joseph, and Joseph gave them bread in exchange for horses, and for livestock of the flock, and for livestock of the herd, and for asses; and he provided them with bread in exchange for all their live stock that year.

18. And that year ended, and they came to him in the second year, and said to him, We will not hide from [my] lord, that since the silver has been used up and the livestock of the beasts has passed to [my] lord, nothing is left before [my] lord apart from our bodies and our ground.

19. Why should we die before your eyes, both we and our ground? Buy us and our ground for bread, and we will live, and our ground, as Pharaoh's slaves; and give us seed so that we may live and not die, and the ground may not become a waste.

20. And Joseph bought all the ground of Egypt for Pharaoh, for the Egyptians sold, each one his field, because the famine overwhelmed them; and the land was Pharaoh's.

21. And the people, he transferred them to the cities from one end of the border of Egypt to the other end of it.

22. Only the ground of the priests he did not buy, for the priests had a fixed portion from Pharaoh and ate their fixed portion which Pharaoh had given them; therefore they did not sell their ground.

23. And Joseph said to the people, Behold, I have bought you today, and your ground, for Pharaoh; look, here is seed for you, and you may sow the ground.

24. And so it will be at in gatherings, 3 that you shall give a fifth to Pharaoh, and four portions shall be yours, for seed of the field, and for your food, and for those in your households, and children.

25. And they said, You have bestowed life on us; let us find favour in the eyes of [my] lord, and we shall be Pharaoh's slaves.

26. And Joseph made it a statute even to this day regarding the ground of Egypt, that a fifth went to Pharaoh. Only the ground of the priests, theirs alone, did not belong to Pharaoh.

27. And Israel dwelt in the land of Egypt, in the land of Goshen; and they had a possession in it, and were fruitful, and multiplied exceedingly.

28. And Jacob lived in the land of Egypt seventeen years; and the days of Jacob, the years of his life, were a hundred and forty-seven years.

29. And Israel's days drew near when he must die; and he called his son Joseph, and said to him, If now I have found favour in your eyes, put now your hand under my thigh, and show me mercy and truth; 4 do not, I beg you, bury me in Egypt.

30. And let me lie with my fathers, and you are to carry me out of Egypt, and to bury me in their sepulchre And he said, I will do according to your word.

31. And he said, Swear to me. And he swore to him. And Israel bowed himself over the head of the bed.

CONTENTS

After the joining of spiritual good from the natural, which is 'Israel', to the internal celestial, which is 'Joseph', has been effected, which was the subject in the previous chapter, the present chapter deals in the internal sense with the introduction of the Church's truths within the natural into factual knowledge. The Church's truths in the natural are 'the sons of Jacob'; truth itself as a whole there is 'Jacob'; and the factual knowledge into which those truths are introduced is 'Pharaoh'.
