Genesis - Chapter: 43

>
43:1And the famine was sore in the land.
43:2And it came to pass, when they had eaten up the corn which they had brought out of Egypt, their father said unto them, Go again, buy us a little food.
43:3And Judah spake unto him, saying, The man did solemnly protest unto us, saying, Ye shall not see my face, except your brother be with you.
43:4If thou wilt send our brother with us, we will go down and buy thee food:
43:5But if thou wilt not send him, we will not go down: for the man said unto us, Ye shall not see my face, except your brother be with you.
43:6And Israel said, Wherefore dealt ye so ill with me, as to tell the man whether ye had yet a brother?
43:7And they said, The man asked us straitly of our state, and of our kindred, saying, Is your father yet alive? have ye another brother? and we told him according to the tenor of these words: could we certainly know that he would say, Bring your brother down?
43:8And Judah said unto Israel his father, Send the lad with me, and we will arise and go; that we may live, and not die, both we, and thou, and also our little ones.
43:9I will be surety for him; of my hand shalt thou require him: if I bring him not unto thee, and set him before thee, then let me bear the blame for ever:
43:10For except we had lingered, surely now we had returned this second time.
43:11And their father Israel said unto them, If it must be so now, do this; take of the best fruits in the land in your vessels, and carry down the man a present, a little balm, and a little honey, spices, and myrrh, nuts, and almonds:
43:12And take double money in your hand; and the money that was brought again in the mouth of your sacks, carry it again in your hand; peradventure it was an oversight:
43:13Take also your brother, and arise, go again unto the man:
43:14And God Almighty give you mercy before the man, that he may send away your other brother, and Benjamin. If I be bereaved of my children, I am bereaved.
43:15And the men took that present, and they took double money in their hand, and Benjamin; and rose up, and went down to Egypt, and stood before Joseph.
43:16And when Joseph saw Benjamin with them, he said to the ruler of his house, Bring these men home, and slay, and make ready; for these men shall dine with me at noon.
43:17And the man did as Joseph bade; and the man brought the men into Joseph's house.
43:18And the men were afraid, because they were brought into Joseph's house; and they said, Because of the money that was returned in our sacks at the first time are we brought in; that he may seek occasion against us, and fall upon us, and take us for bondmen, and our asses.
43:19And they came near to the steward of Joseph's house, and they communed with him at the door of the house,
43:20And said, O sir, we came indeed down at the first time to buy food:
43:21And it came to pass, when we came to the inn, that we opened our sacks, and, behold, every man's money was in the mouth of his sack, our money in full weight: and we have brought it again in our hand.
43:22And other money have we brought down in our hands to buy food: we cannot tell who put our money in our sacks.
43:23And he said, Peace be to you, fear not: your God, and the God of your father, hath given you treasure in your sacks: I had your money. And he brought Simeon out unto them.
43:24And the man brought the men into Joseph's house, and gave them water, and they washed their feet; and he gave their asses provender.
43:25And they made ready the present against Joseph came at noon: for they heard that they should eat bread there.
43:26And when Joseph came home, they brought him the present which was in their hand into the house, and bowed themselves to him to the earth.
43:27And he asked them of their welfare, and said, Is your father well, the old man of whom ye spake? Is he yet alive?
43:28And they answered, Thy servant our father is in good health, he is yet alive. And they bowed down their heads, and made obeisance.
43:29And he lifted up his eyes, and saw his brother Benjamin, his mother's son, and said, Is this your younger brother, of whom ye spake unto me? And he said, God be gracious unto thee, my son.
43:30And Joseph made haste; for his bowels did yearn upon his brother: and he sought where to weep; and he entered into his chamber, and wept there.
43:31And he washed his face, and went out, and refrained himself, and said, Set on bread.
43:32And they set on for him by himself, and for them by themselves, and for the Egyptians, which did eat with him, by themselves: because the Egyptians might not eat bread with the Hebrews; for that is an abomination unto the Egyptians.
43:33And they sat before him, the firstborn according to his birthright, and the youngest according to his youth: and the men marvelled one at another.
43:34And he took and sent messes unto them from before him: but Benjamin's mess was five times so much as any of theirs. And they drank, and were merry with him.

 

43:1והרעב כבד בארץ׃
43:2ויהי כאשׁר כלו לאכל את השׁבר אשׁר הביאו ממצרים ויאמר אליהם אביהם שׁבו שׁברו לנו מעט אכל׃
43:3ויאמר אליו יהודה לאמר העד העד בנו האישׁ לאמר לא תראו פני בלתי אחיכם אתכם׃
43:4אם ישׁך משׁלח את אחינו אתנו נרדה ונשׁברה לך אכל׃
43:5ואם אינך משׁלח לא נרד כי האישׁ אמר אלינו לא תראו פני בלתי אחיכם אתכם׃
43:6ויאמר ישׂראל למה הרעתם לי להגיד לאישׁ העוד לכם אח׃
43:7ויאמרו שׁאול שׁאל האישׁ לנו ולמולדתנו לאמר העוד אביכם חי הישׁ לכם אח ונגד לו על פי הדברים האלה הידוע נדע כי יאמר הורידו את אחיכם׃
43:8ויאמר יהודה אל ישׂראל אביו שׁלחה הנער אתי ונקומה ונלכה ונחיה ולא נמות גם אנחנו גם אתה גם טפנו׃
43:9אנכי אערבנו מידי תבקשׁנו אם לא הביאתיו אליך והצגתיו לפניך וחטאתי לך כל הימים׃
43:10כי לולא התמהמהנו כי עתה שׁבנו זה פעמים׃
43:11ויאמר אלהם ישׂראל אביהם אם כן אפוא זאת עשׂו קחו מזמרת הארץ בכליכם והורידו לאישׁ מנחה מעט צרי ומעט דבשׁ נכאת ולט בטנים ושׁקדים׃
43:12וכסף משׁנה קחו בידכם ואת הכסף המושׁב בפי אמתחתיכם תשׁיבו בידכם אולי משׁגה הוא׃
43:13ואת אחיכם קחו וקומו שׁובו אל האישׁ׃
43:14ואל שׁדי יתן לכם רחמים לפני האישׁ ושׁלח לכם את אחיכם אחר ואת בנימין ואני כאשׁר שׁכלתי שׁכלתי׃
43:15ויקחו האנשׁים את המנחה הזאת ומשׁנה כסף לקחו בידם ואת בנימן ויקמו וירדו מצרים ויעמדו לפני יוסף׃
43:16וירא יוסף אתם את בנימין ויאמר לאשׁר על ביתו הבא את האנשׁים הביתה וטבח טבח והכן כי אתי יאכלו האנשׁים בצהרים׃
43:17ויעשׂ האישׁ כאשׁר אמר יוסף ויבא האישׁ את האנשׁים ביתה יוסף׃
43:18וייראו האנשׁים כי הובאו בית יוסף ויאמרו על דבר הכסף השׁב באמתחתינו בתחלה אנחנו מובאים להתגלל עלינו ולהתנפל עלינו ולקחת אתנו לעבדים ואת חמרינו׃
43:19ויגשׁו אל האישׁ אשׁר על בית יוסף וידברו אליו פתח הבית׃
43:20ויאמרו בי אדני ירד ירדנו בתחלה לשׁבר אכל׃
43:21ויהי כי באנו אל המלון ונפתחה את אמתחתינו והנה כסף אישׁ בפי אמתחתו כספנו במשׁקלו ונשׁב אתו בידנו׃
43:22וכסף אחר הורדנו בידנו לשׁבר אכל לא ידענו מי שׂם כספנו באמתחתינו׃
43:23ויאמר שׁלום לכם אל תיראו אלהיכם ואלהי אביכם נתן לכם מטמון באמתחתיכם כספכם בא אלי ויוצא אלהם את שׁמעון׃
43:24ויבא האישׁ את האנשׁים ביתה יוסף ויתן מים וירחצו רגליהם ויתן מספוא לחמריהם׃
43:25ויכינו את המנחה עד בוא יוסף בצהרים כי שׁמעו כי שׁם יאכלו לחם׃
43:26ויבא יוסף הביתה ויביאו לו את המנחה אשׁר בידם הביתה וישׁתחוו לו ארצה׃
43:27וישׁאל להם לשׁלום ויאמר השׁלום אביכם הזקן אשׁר אמרתם העודנו חי׃
43:28ויאמרו שׁלום לעבדך לאבינו עודנו חי ויקדו וישׁתחו׃
43:29וישׂא עיניו וירא את בנימין אחיו בן אמו ויאמר הזה אחיכם הקטן אשׁר אמרתם אלי ויאמר אלהים יחנך בני׃
43:30וימהר יוסף כי נכמרו רחמיו אל אחיו ויבקשׁ לבכות ויבא החדרה ויבך שׁמה׃
43:31וירחץ פניו ויצא ויתאפק ויאמר שׂימו לחם׃
43:32וישׂימו לו לבדו ולהם לבדם ולמצרים האכלים אתו לבדם כי לא יוכלון המצרים לאכל את העברים לחם כי תועבה הוא למצרים׃
43:33וישׁבו לפניו הבכר כבכרתו והצעיר כצערתו ויתמהו האנשׁים אישׁ אל רעהו׃
43:34וישׂא משׂאת מאת פניו אלהם ותרב משׂאת בנימן ממשׂאת כלם חמשׁ ידות וישׁתו וישׁכרו עמו׃

 

43:1And the famine `is' severe in the land;
43:2and it cometh to pass, when they have finished eating the corn which they brought from Egypt, that their father saith unto them, `Turn back, buy for us a little food.'
43:3And Judah speaketh unto him, saying, `The man protesting protested to us, saying, Ye do not see my face without your brother `being' with you;
43:4if thou art sending our brother with us, we go down, and buy for thee food,
43:5and if thou art not sending -- we do not go down, for the man said unto us, Ye do not see my face without your brother `being' with you.'
43:6And Israel saith, `Why did ye evil to me, by declaring to the man that ye had yet a brother?'
43:7and they say, `The man asked diligently concerning us, and concerning our kindred, saying, Is your father yet alive? have ye a brother? and we declare to him according to the tenor of these things; do we certainly know that he will say, Bring down your brother?'
43:8And Judah saith unto Israel his father, `Send the youth with me, and we arise, and go, and live, and do not die, both we, and thou, and our infants.
43:9I -- I am surety `for' him, from my hand thou dost require him; if I have not brought him in unto thee, and set him before thee -- then I have sinned against thee all the days;
43:10for if we had not lingered, surely now we had returned these two times.'
43:11And Israel their father saith unto them, `If so, now, this do: take of the praised thing of the land in your vessels, and take down to the man a present, a little balm, and a little honey, spices and myrrh, nuts and almonds;
43:12and double money take in your hand, even the money which is brought back in the mouth of your bags, ye take back in your hand, it may be it `is' an oversight.
43:13`And take your brother, and rise, turn back unto the man;
43:14and God Almighty give to you mercies before the man, so that he hath sent to you your other brother and Benjamin; and I, when I am bereaved -- I am bereaved.'
43:15And the men take this present, double money also they have taken in their hand, and Benjamin; and they rise, and go down to Egypt, and stand before Joseph;
43:16and Joseph seeth Benjamin with them, and saith to him who `is' over his house, `Bring the men into the house, and slaughter an animal, and make ready, for with me do the men eat at noon.'
43:17And the man doth as Joseph hath said, and the man bringeth in the men into the house of Joseph,
43:18and the men are afraid because they have been brought into the house of Joseph, and they say, `For the matter of the money which was put back in our bags at the commencement are we brought in -- to roll himself upon us, and to throw himself on us, and to take us for servants -- our asses also.'
43:19And they come nigh unto the man who `is' over the house of Joseph, and speak unto him at the opening of the house,
43:20and say, `O, my lord, we really come down at the commencement to buy food;
43:21and it cometh to pass, when we have come in unto the lodging-place, and open our bags, that lo, each one's money `is' in the mouth of his bag, our money in its weight, and we bring it back in our hand;
43:22and other money have we brought down in our hand to buy food; we have not known who put our money in our bags.'
43:23And he saith, `Peace to you, fear not: your God and the God of your father hath given to you hidden treasure in your bags, your money came unto me;' and he bringeth out Simeon unto them.
43:24And the man bringeth in the men into Joseph's house, and giveth water, and they wash their feet; and he giveth provender for their asses,
43:25and they prepare the present until the coming of Joseph at noon, for they have heard that there they do eat bread.
43:26And Joseph cometh into the house, and they bring to him the present which `is' in their hand, into the house, and bow themselves to him, to the earth;
43:27and he asketh of them of peace, and saith, `Is your father well? the aged man of whom ye have spoken, is he yet alive?'
43:28and they say, `Thy servant our father `is' well, he is yet alive;' and they bow, and do obeisance.
43:29And he lifteth up his eyes, and seeth Benjamin his brother, his mother's son, and saith, `Is this your young brother, of whom ye have spoken unto me?' and he saith, `God favour thee, my son.'
43:30And Joseph hasteth, for his bowels have been moved for his brother, and he seeketh to weep, and entereth the inner chamber, and weepeth there;
43:31and he washeth his face, and goeth out, and refraineth himself, and saith, `Place bread.'
43:32And they place for him by himself, and for them by themselves, and for the Egyptians who are eating with him by themselves: for the Egyptians are unable to eat bread with the Hebrews, for it `is' an abomination to the Egyptians.
43:33And they sit before him, the first-born according to his birthright, and the young one according to his youth, and the men wonder one at another;
43:34and he lifteth up gifts from before him unto them, and the gift of Benjamin is five hands more than the gifts of all of them; and they drink, yea, they drink abundantly with him.
