And Jacob having seen that there was a sale [of corn] in Mizraim{gr.Egypt}, said to his sons, Why are ye indolent? |
|
42:1 ¶
Now when Jacob°
saw°°
that°
there was°
corn°
in Egypt,°
Jacob°
said°°
unto his sons,°
Why°
do ye look°°
one upon another?° |
|
42:2
Behold, I have heard that there is corn in Mizraim{gr.Egypt}; go down thither, and buy for us a little food, that we may live, and not die. |
|
42:2
And he said,°°
Behold,°
I have heard°°
that°
there is°
corn°
in Egypt:°
get you down°°
thither,°
and buy°°
for us from thence;°°
that we may live,°°
and not°
die.°° |
|
42:3 ¶
And the ten brethren of Joseph went down to buy corn out of Mizraim{gr.Egypt}. |
|
42:3 ¶
And Joseph's°
ten°
brethren°
went down°°
to buy°°
corn°
in Egypt.°° |
|
42:4
But [Jacob] sent not Benjamin, the brother of Joseph, with his brethren; for he said, Lest, haply, disease befall him. |
|
42:4
But Benjamin,°
Joseph's°
brother,°
Jacob°
sent°°
not°
with°
his brethren;°
for°
he said,°°
Lest peradventure°
mischief°
befall°
him.°° |
|
42:5
And the sons of Israel came to buy with those that came, for the famine was in the land of Canaan{gr.Chanaan}. |
|
42:5
And the sons°
of Israel°
came°°
to buy°°
[corn] among°
those that came:°°
for°
the famine°
was°
in the land°
of Canaan.° |
|
42:6
And Joseph was ruler of the land; he sold to all the people of the land. And the brethren of Joseph, having come, did reverence to him, [bowing] with the face to the ground. |
|
42:6
And Joseph°
[was] the governor°
over°
the land,°
[and] he°
[it was] that sold°°
to all°
the people°
of the land:°
and Joseph's°
brethren°
came,°°
and bowed down°°
themselves°
before him [with] their faces°
to the earth.° |
|
42:7
And when Joseph saw his brethren, he knew them, and estranged himself from them, and spoke hard words to them; and said to them, Whence are ye come? And they said, Out of the land of Canaan{gr.Chanaan}, to buy food. |
|
42:7
And Joseph°
saw°°°
his brethren,°
and he knew°°
them, but made himself strange°°
unto°
them, and spake°°
roughly°
unto°
them; and he said°°
unto°
them, Whence°°
come°°
ye? And they said,°°
From the land°°
of Canaan°
to buy°°
food.° |
|
42:8
And Joseph knew his brethren, but they knew not him. |
|
42:8
And Joseph°
knew°°°
his brethren,°
but they°
knew°°
not°
him. |
|
42:9
And Joseph remembered his dream, which he saw; and he said to them, Ye are spies; to observe the marks of the land are ye come. |
|
42:9
And Joseph°
remembered°°°
the dreams°
which°
he dreamed°°
of them, and said°°
unto°
them, Ye°
[are] spies;°°
to see°°°
the nakedness°
of the land°
ye are come.°° |
|
42:10
But they said, Nay, Sir, we thy servants are come to buy food; |
|
42:10
And they said°°
unto°
him, Nay,°
my adon,°
but to buy°°
food°
are thy servants°
come.°° |
|
42:11
we are all sons of one man; we are peaceable, thy servants are not spies. |
|
42:11
We°
[are] all°
one°
man's°
sons;°
we°
[are] true°
[men], thy servants°
are°
no°
spies.°° |
|
42:12
And he said to them, Nay, but ye are come to observe the marks of the land. |
|
42:12
And he said°°
unto°
them, Nay,°
but°
to see°°
the nakedness°
of the land°
ye are come.°° |
|
42:13
And they said, We thy servants are twelve brethren, in the land of Canaan{gr.Chanaan}; and, behold, the youngest is with our father to-day, but the other one is not. |
|
42:13
And they said,°°
Thy servants°
[are] twelve°°
brethren,°
the sons°
of one°
man°
in the land°
of Canaan;°
and, behold,°
the youngest°
[is] this day°
with°
our father,°
and one°
[is] not.° |
|
42:14
And Joseph said to them, This is it that I spoke to you, saying, ye are spies; |
|
42:14
And Joseph°
said°°
unto°
them, That°
[is it] that°
I spake°°
unto°
you, saying,°°
Ye°
[are] spies:°° |
|
42:15
herein shall ye be manifested; by the health of Pharaoh{gr.Pharao}, ye shall not depart hence, unless your younger brother come hither. |
|
42:15
Hereby°
ye shall be proved:°°
By the life°
of Pharaoh°
ye shall not go forth°°
hence,°°
except°°
your youngest°
brother°
come°°
hither.° |
|
42:16
Send one of you, and take your brother; and go ye to prison, till your words be clear, whether ye speak the truth or not; but, if not, by the health of Pharaoh{gr.Pharao}, verily ye are spies. |
|
42:16
Send°°
one°
of°
you, and let him fetch°°°
your brother,°
and ye°
shall be kept in prison,°°
that your words°
may be proved,°°
whether [there be any] truth°
in°
you: or else°°
by the life°
of Pharaoh°
surely°
ye°
[are] spies.°° |
|
42:17
And he put them in prison three days. |
|
42:17
And he put them all together°°°
into°
ward°
three°
days.° |
|
42:18
And he said to them on the third day, This do, and ye shall live, for I fear God. |
|
42:18
And Joseph°
said°°
unto°
them the third°
day,°
This°
do,°°
and live;°°
[for] I°
fear°°
Elohim:° |
|
42:19
If ye be peaceable, let one of your brethren be detained in prison; but go ye, and carry back the corn ye have purchased. |
|
42:19
If°
ye°
[be] true°
[men], let one°
of your brethren°
be bound°°
in the house°
of your prison:°
go°°°
ye,°
carry°°
corn°
for the famine°
of your houses:° |
|
42:20
And bring your younger brother to me, and your words shall be believed; but, if not, ye shall die. And they did so. |
|
42:20
But bring°°
your youngest°
brother°
unto°
me; so shall your words°
be verified,°°
and ye shall not°
die.°°
And they did°°
so.° |
|
42:21 ¶
And each said to his brother, Yes, indeed, for we are in fault concerning our brother, when we disregarded the anguish of his soul, when he besought us, and we hearkened not to him; and therefore has this affliction come upon us. |
|
42:21 ¶
And they said°°
one°
to°
another,°
We°
[are] verily°
guilty°
concerning°
our brother,°
in that°
we saw°°
the anguish°
of his soul,°
when he besought°°°
us, and we would not°
hear;°°
therefore°°
is this°
distress°
come°°
upon°
us. |
|
42:22
And Reuben{gr.Ruben} answered them, saying, Did I not speak to you, saying, Hurt not the boy, and ye heard me not? and, behold, his blood is required. |
|
42:22
And Reuben°
answered°°
them, saying,°°
Spake°
I°°
not°
unto°
you, saying,°°
Do not°
sin°°
against the child;°
and ye would not°
hear?°°
therefore, behold,°
also°
his blood°
is required.°° |
|
42:23
But they knew not that Joseph understood them; for there was an interpreter between them. |
|
42:23
And they°
knew°°
not°
that°
Joseph°
understood°°
[them]; for°
he spake unto°
them by an interpreter.°° |
|
42:24
And Joseph turned away from them, and wept; and again he came to them, and spoke to them; and he took Simeon{gr.Symeon} from them, and bound him before their eyes. |
|
42:24
And he turned himself about°°
from°°
them, and wept;°°
and returned°
to°
them again,°°
and communed°°
with°
them, and took°°
from°°
them°
Simeon,°
and bound°°
him before their eyes.° |
|
42:25 ¶
And Joseph gave orders to fill their vessels with corn, and to return their money to each into his sack, and to give them provision for the way; and it was so done to them. |
|
42:25 ¶
Then Joseph°
commanded°°
to fill°°°
their sacks°
with corn,°
and to restore°°
every man's°
money°
into°
his sack,°
and to give°°
them provision°
for the way:°
and thus°
did°
he°°
unto them. |
|
42:26
And having put the corn on the asses, they departed thence. |
|
42:26
And they laded°°°
their asses°
with°
the corn,°
and departed°°°
thence.°° |
|
42:27
And one having opened his sack to give his asses fodder, at the place where they rested, saw also his bundle of money, for it was on the mouth of his sack. |
|
42:27
And as one°
of them opened°°°
his sack°
to give°°
his ass°
provender°
in the inn,°
he espied°°°
his money;°
for, behold,°
it°
[was] in his sack's°
mouth.° |
|
42:28
And he said to his brethren, My money has been restored to me, and behold this is in my sack. And their heart was wonder-struck, and they were troubled, saying one to another, What is this that God has done to us? |
|
42:28
And he said°°
unto°
his brethren,°
My money°
is restored;°°
and, lo,°
[it is] even°
in my sack:°
and their heart°
failed°°
[them], and they were afraid,°°
saying°°
one°
to°
another,°
What°
[is] this°
[that] Elohim°
hath done°°
unto us? |
|
42:29 ¶
And they came to their father, Jacob, into the land of Canaan{gr.Chanaan}, and reported to him all that had happened to them, saying, |
|
42:29 ¶
And they came°°
unto°
Jacob°
their father°
unto the land°
of Canaan,°
and told°°
him°
all°
that befell°°
unto them; saying,°° |
|
42:30
The man, the lord of the land, spoke harsh words to us, and put us in prison as spies of the land. |
|
42:30
The man,°
[who is] the adon°
of the land,°
spake°°
roughly°
to°
us, and took°°
us for spies°°
of°
the country.° |
|
42:31
And we said to him, We are men of peace, we are not spies. |
|
42:31
And we said°°
unto°
him, We°
[are] true°
[men]; we are°
no°
spies:°° |
|
42:32
We are twelve brethren, sons of our father; one is not, and the youngest is with his father to-day in the land of Canaan{gr.Chanaan}. |
|
42:32
We°
[be] twelve°°
brethren,°
sons°
of our father;°
one°
[is] not,°
and the youngest°
[is] this day°
with°
our father°
in the land°
of Canaan.° |
|
42:33
And the man, the lord of the land, said to us, Herein shall I know that ye are peaceable; leave one brother here with me, and having taken the corn ye have purchased for your family, depart. |
|
42:33
And the man,°
the adon°
of the country,°
said°°
unto°
us, Hereby°
shall I know°°
that°
ye°
[are] true°
[men]; leave°°°
one°
of your brethren°
[here] with°
me, and take°°
[food for] the famine°
of your households,°
and be gone:°°° |
|
42:34
And bring to me your younger brother; then I shall know that ye are not spies, but that ye are men of peace: and I will restore you your brother, and ye shall trade in the land. |
|
42:34
And bring°°°
your youngest°
brother°
unto°
me: then shall I know°°
that°
ye°
[are] no°
spies,°°
but°
[that] ye°
[are] true°
[men: so] will I deliver°°
you°
your brother,°
and ye shall traffick°°
in the land.° |
|
42:35 ¶
And it came to pass as they were emptying their sacks, there was each man's bundle of money in his sack; and they and their father saw their bundles of money, and they were afraid. |
|
42:35 ¶
And it came to pass°
as they°
emptied°°
their sacks,°
that, behold,°
every man's°
bundle°
of money°
[was] in his sack:°
and when [both] they°
and their father°
saw°°°
the bundles°
of money,°
they were afraid.°° |
|
42:36
And their father Jacob said to them, Ye have bereaved me. Joseph is not, Simeon{gr.Symeon} is not, and will ye take Benjamin? all these things have come upon me. |
|
42:36
And Jacob°
their father°
said°°
unto°
them, Me have ye bereaved°°
[of my children]: Joseph°
[is] not,°
and Simeon°
[is] not,°
and ye will take°°
Benjamin°
[away]: all°
these things are°
against°
me. |
|
42:37
And Reuben{gr.Ruben} spoke to his father, saying, Slay my two sons, if I bring him not to thee; give him into my hand, and I will bring him back to thee. |
|
42:37
And Reuben°
spake°°
unto°
his father,°
saying,°°
Slay°°°
my two°
sons,°
if°
I bring°°
him not°
to°
thee: deliver°°
him into°
my hand,°
and I°
will bring°
him to°
thee again.°° |
|
42:38
But he said, My son shall not go down with you, because his brother is dead, and he only has been left; and [suppose] it shall come to pass that he is afflicted by the way by which ye go, then ye shall bring down my old age with sorrow to the grave{gr.Hades}. |
|
42:38
And he said,°°
My son°
shall not°
go down°°
with°
you; for°
his brother°
is dead,°°
and he°
is left°°
alone:°
if mischief°
befall°°
him by the way°
in the which°
ye go,°°°
then shall ye bring down°°°
my gray hairs°
with sorrow°
to the grave.° |
