Genesi (تكوين) 48

SMITH VAN DYKE	KING JAMES BIBLE
1 وحدث بعد هذه الامور انه قيل ليوسف هوذا ابوك مريض. فأخذ معه ابنيه منسّى وافرايم.	1 And it came to pass after these things, that one told Joseph, Behold, thy father is sick: and he took with him his two sons, Manasseh and Ephraim.
2 فاخبر يعقوب وقيل له هوذا ابنك يوسف قادم اليك. فتشدد اسرائيل وجلس على السرير	2 And one told Jacob, and said, Behold, thy son Joseph cometh unto thee: and Israel strengthened himself, and sat upon the bed.
3 وقال يعقوب ليوسف الله القادر على كل شيء ظهر لي في لوز في ارض كنعان وباركني.	3 And Jacob said unto Joseph, God Almighty appeared unto me at Luz in the land of Canaan, and blessed me,
4 وقال لي ها انا اجعلك مثمرا واكثرك واجعلك جمهورا من الامم واعطي نسلك هذه الارض من بعدك ملكا ابديا.	4 And said unto me, Behold, I will make thee fruitful, and multiply thee, and I will make of thee a multitude of people; and will give this land to thy seed after thee for an everlasting possession.
5 والآن ابناك المولودان لك في ارض مصر قبلما أتيت اليك الى مصر هما لي. افرايم ومنسّى كرأوبين وشمعون يكونان لي.	5 And now thy two sons, Ephraim and Manasseh, which were born unto thee in the land of Egypt before I came unto thee into Egypt, are mine; as Reuben and Simeon, they shall be mine.
6 واما اولادك الذين تلد بعدهما فيكونون لك. على اسم اخويهم يسمون في نصيبهم.	6 And thy issue, which thou begettest after them, shall be thine, and shall be called after the name of their brethren in their inheritance.
7 وانا حين جئت من فدّان ماتت عندي راحيل في ارض كنعان في الطريق اذ بقيت مسافة من الارض حتى آتي الى افراتة. فدفنتها هناك في طريق افراتة التي هي بيت لحم	7 And as for me, when I came from Padan, Rachel died by me in the land of Canaan in the way, when yet there was but a little way to come unto Ephrath: and I buried her there in the way of Ephrath; the same is Bethlehem.
8 ورأى اسرائيل ابني يوسف فقال من هذان.	8 And Israel beheld Joseph's sons, and said, Who are these?
9 فقال يوسف لابيه هما ابناي اللذان اعطاني الله ههنا. فقال قدمهما اليّ لاباركهما.	9 And Joseph said unto his father, They are my sons, whom God hath given me in this place. And he said, Bring them, I pray thee, unto me, and I will bless them.
10 واما عينا اسرائيل فكانتا قد ثقلتا من الشيخوخة لا يقدر ان يبصر. فقربهما اليه فقبّلهما واحتضنهما.	10 Now the eyes of Israel were dim for age, so that he could not see. And he brought them near unto him; and he kissed them, and embraced them.
11 وقال اسرائيل ليوسف لم اكن اظن اني ارى وجهك وهوذا الله قد اراني نسلك ايضا.	11 And Israel said unto Joseph, I had not thought to see thy face: and, lo, God hath shewed me also thy seed.
12 ثم اخرجهما يوسف من بين ركبتيه وسجد امام وجهه الى الارض	12 And Joseph brought them out from between his knees, and he bowed himself with his face to the earth.
13 واخذ يوسف الاثنين افرايم بيمينه عن يسار اسرائيل ومنسّى بيساره عن يمين اسرائيل وقربهما اليه.	13 And Joseph took them both, Ephraim in his right hand toward Israel's left hand, and Manasseh in his left hand toward Israel's right hand, and brought them near unto him.
14 فمدّ اسرائيل يمينه ووضعها على راس افرايم وهو الصغير ويساره على راس منسّى. وضع يديه بفطنة فان منسّى كان البكر.	14 And Israel stretched out his right hand, and laid it upon Ephraim's head, who was the younger, and his left hand upon Manasseh's head, guiding his hands wittingly; for Manasseh was the firstborn.
15 وبارك يوسف وقال الله الذي سار امامه ابواي ابراهيم واسحق. الله الذي رعاني منذ وجودي الى هذا اليوم.	15 And he blessed Joseph, and said, God, before whom my fathers Abraham and Isaac did walk, the God which fed me all my life long unto this day,
16 الملاك الذي خلصني من كل شر يبارك الغلامين. وليدع عليهما اسمي واسم ابوي ابراهيم واسحق. وليكثرا كثيرا في الارض	16 The Angel which redeemed me from all evil, bless the lads; and let my name be named on them, and the name of my fathers Abraham and Isaac; and let them grow into a multitude in the midst of the earth.
17 فلما رأى يوسف ان اباه وضع يده اليمنى على راس افرايم ساء ذلك في عينيه. فامسك بيد ابيه لينقلها عن راس افرايم الى راس منسّى.	17 And when Joseph saw that his father laid his right hand upon the head of Ephraim, it displeased him: and he held up his father's hand, to remove it from Ephraim's head unto Manasseh's head.
18 وقال يوسف لابيه ليس هكذا يا ابي لان هذا هو البكر. ضع يمينك على راسه.	18 And Joseph said unto his father, Not so, my father: for this is the firstborn; put thy right hand upon his head.
19 فابى ابوه وقال علمت يا ابني علمت. هو ايضا يكون شعبا وهو ايضا يصير كبيرا. ولكن اخاه الصغير يكون اكبر منه ونسله يكون جمهورا من الامم.	19 And his father refused, and said, I know it, my son, I know it: he also shall become a people, and he also shall be great: but truly his younger brother shall be greater than he, and his seed shall become a multitude of nations.
20 وباركهما في ذلك اليوم قائلا بك يبارك اسرائيل قائلا يجعلك الله كافرايم وكمنسّى. فقدّم افرايم على منسّى	20 And he blessed them that day, saying, In thee shall Israel bless, saying, God make thee as Ephraim and as Manasseh: and he set Ephraim before Manasseh.
21 وقال اسرائيل ليوسف ها انا اموت ولكن الله سيكون معكم ويردكم الى ارض آبائكم.	21 And Israel said unto Joseph, Behold, I die: but God shall be with you, and bring you again unto the land of your fathers.
22 وانا قد وهبت لك سهما واحدا فوق اخوتك اخذته من يد الاموريين بسيفي وقوسي	22 Moreover I have given to thee one portion above thy brethren, which I took out of the hand of the Amorite with my sword and with my bow.
