47：18那一年过去，第二年他们又来见约瑟，说，我们不瞒我主，我们的银子都花尽了，牲畜也都归了我主。我们在我主眼前，除了我们的身体和田地之外，一无所剩。
When that year was ended； they came unto him the second year； and said unto him； We will not hide it from my lord； how that our money is spent； my lord also hath our herds of cattle； there is not ought left in the sight of my lord； but our bodies； and our lands：
47：19你何忍见我们人死地荒呢。求你用粮食买我们的我们的地，我们和我们的地就要给法老效力。又求你给我们种子，使我们得以存活，不至死亡，地土也不至荒凉。
Wherefore shall we die before thine eyes； both we and our land？ buy us and our land for bread； and we and our land will be servants unto Pharaoh： and give us seed； that we may live； and not die； that the land be not desolate。
47：20于是，约瑟为法老买了埃及所有的地，埃及人因被饥荒所迫，各都卖了自己的田地。那地就都归了法老。
And Joseph bought all the land of Egypt for Pharaoh； for the Egyptians sold every man his field； because the famine prevailed over them： so the land became Pharaoh's。
47：21至于百姓，约瑟叫他们，从埃及赦边直到埃及那边，都各归各城。
And as for the people； he removed them to cities from one end of the borders of Egypt even to the other end thereof。
47：22惟有祭司的地，约瑟没有买，因为祭司有从法老所得的常俸。他们吃法老所给的常俸，所以他们不卖自己的地。
Only the land of the priests bought he not； for the priests had a portion assigned them of Pharaoh； and did eat their portion which Pharaoh gave them： wherefore they sold not their lands。
47：23约瑟对百姓说，我今日为法老买了你们和你们的地，看哪，这里有种子给你们，你们可以种地。
Then Joseph said unto the people； Behold； I have bought you this day and your land for Pharaoh： lo； here is seed for you； and ye shall sow the land。
47：24后来打粮食的时候，你们要把五分之一纳给法老，四分可以归你们作地里的种子，也作你们和你们家口孩童的食物。
And it shall e to pass in the increase； that ye shall give the fifth part unto Pharaoh； and four parts shall be your own； for seed of the field； and for your food； and for them of your households； and for food for your little ones。
47：25他们说，你救了我们的性命。但愿我们在我主眼前蒙恩，我们就作法老的仆人。
And they said； Thou hast saved our lives： let us find grace in the sight of my lord； and we will be Pharaoh's servants。
47：26于是约瑟为埃及地定下常例，直到今日，法老必得五分之一，惟独祭司的地不归法老。
And Joseph made it a law over the land of Egypt unto this day； that Pharaoh should have the fifth part； except the land of the priests only； which became not Pharaoh's。
47：27以色列人住在埃及的歌珊地。他们在那里置了产业，并且生育甚多。
And Israel dwelt in the land of Egypt； in the country of Goshen； and they had possessions therein； and grew； and multiplied exceedingly。
47：28雅各住在埃及地十七年，雅各平生的年日是一百四十七岁。
And Jacob lived in the land of Egypt seventeen years： so the whole age of Jacob was an hundred forty and seven years。
47：29以色列的死期临近了，他就叫了他儿子约瑟来，说，我若在你眼前蒙恩，请你把手放在我大腿底下，用慈爱和诚实待我，请你不要将我葬在埃及。
And the time drew nigh that Israel must die： and he called his son Joseph； and said unto him； If now I have found grace in thy sight； put； I pray thee； thy hand under my thigh； and deal kindly and truly with me； bury me not； I pray thee； in Egypt：
47：30我与我祖我父同睡的时候，你要将我带出埃及，葬在他们所葬的地方。约瑟说，我必遵着你的命而行。
But I will lie with my fathers； and thou shalt carry me out of Egypt； and bury me in their buryingplace。 And he said； I will do as thou hast said。
47：31雅各说，你要向我起誓。约瑟就向他起了誓，于是以色列在床头上（或作扶着杖头）敬拜神。
And he said； Swear unto me。 And he sware unto him。 And Israel bowed himself upon the bed's head。
旧约 创世记（Genesis） 第 48 章 （ 本篇共有 50 章 ） 7上一章 下一章8 目录
48：1这事以后，有人告诉约瑟说，你的父亲病了。他就带着两个儿子玛拿西和以法莲同去。
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。
48：2有人告诉雅各说，请看，你儿子约瑟到你这里来了。以色列就勉强在床上坐起来。
And one told Jacob； and said； Behold； thy son Joseph eth unto thee： and Israel strengthened himself； and sat upon the bed。
48：3雅各对约瑟说，全能的神曾在迦南地的路斯向我显现，赐福与我，
And Jacob said unto Joseph； God Almighty appeared unto me at Luz in the land of Canaan； and blessed me；
48：4对我说，我必使你生养众多，成为多民，又要把这地赐给你的后裔，永远为业。
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。
48：5我未到埃及见你之先，你在埃及地所生的以法莲和玛拿西这两个儿子是我的，正如流便和西缅是我的一样。
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。
48：6你在他们以后所生的就是你的，他们可以归于他们弟兄的名下得产业。
And thy issue； which thou begettest after them； shall be thine； and shall be called after the name of their brethren in their inheritance。
48：7至于我，我从巴旦来的时候，拉结死在我眼前，在迦南地的路上，离以法他还有一段路程，我就把她葬在以法他的路上。以法他就是伯利恒。
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 e unto Ephrath： and I buried her there in the way of Ephrath； the same is Bethlehem。
48：8以色列看见约瑟的两个儿子，就说，这是谁，
And Israel beheld Joseph's sons； and said； Who are these？
48：9约瑟对他父亲说，这是神在这里赐给我的儿子。以色列说，请你领他们到我跟前，我要给他们祝福。
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。
48：10以色列年纪老迈，眼睛昏花，不能看见。约瑟领他们到他跟前，他就和他们亲嘴，抱着他们。
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。
48：11以色列对约瑟说，我想不到得见你的面，不料，神又使我得见你的儿子。
And Israel said unto Joseph； I had not thought to see thy face： and； lo； God hath shewed me also thy seed。
48：12约瑟把两个儿子从以色列两膝中领出来，自己就脸伏于地下拜。
And Joseph brought them out from between his knees； and he bowed himself with his face to the earth。
48：13随后，约瑟又拉着他们两个，以法莲在他的右手里，对着以色列的左手，玛拿西在他的左手里，对着以色列的右手，领他们到以色列的跟前。
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。
48：14以色列伸出右手来，按在以法莲的头上，以法莲乃是次子。又剪搭过左手来，按在玛拿西的头上，玛拿西原是长子。
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。
48：15他就给约瑟祝福说，愿我祖亚伯拉罕和我父以撒所事奉的神，就是一生牧养我直到今日的神，
And he blessed Joseph； and said； God； before whom my fathers Abraham and Isaac did
