Genesis 40:1--43:34

And it came to pass after
<0310>
these things
<01697>_,
[that] the butler
<08248> (8688)
of the king
<04428>
of Egypt
<04714>
and [his] baker
<0644> (8802)
had offended
<02398> (8804)
their lord
<0113>
the king
<04428>
of Egypt
<04714>_.
And Pharaoh
<06547>
was wroth
<07107> (8799)
against
<05921>
two
<08147>
[of] his officers
<05631>_,
against the chief
<08269>
of the butlers
<08248> (8688)_,
and against the chief
<08269>
of the bakers
<0644> (8802)_.
And he put
<05414> (8799)
them in ward
<04929>
in the house
<01004>
of the captain
<08269>
of the guard
<02876>_,
into the prison
<01004> <05470>_,
the place
<04725>
where Joseph
<03130>
[was] bound
<0631> (8803)_.
And the captain
<08269>
of the guard
<02876>
charged
<06485> (8799)
Joseph
<03130>
with them, and he served
<08334> (8762)
them: and they continued a season
<03117>
in ward
<04929>_.
And they dreamed
<02492> (8799)
a dream
<02472>
both of them
<08147>_,
each man
<0376>
his dream
<02472>
in one
<0259>
night
<03915>_,
each man
<0376>
according to the interpretation
<06623>
of his dream
<02472>_,
the butler
<08248> (8688)
and the baker
<0644> (8802)
of the king
<04428>
of Egypt
<04714>_,
which [were] bound
<0631> (8803)
in the prison
<01004> <05470>_.
And Joseph
<03130>
came in
<0935> (8799)
unto them in the morning
<01242>_,
and looked
<07200> (8799)
upon them, and, behold, they [were] sad
<02196> (8802)_.
And he asked
<07592> (8799)
Pharaoh's
<06547>
officers
<05631>
that [were] with him in the ward
<04929>
of his lord's
<0113>
house
<01004>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Wherefore look
<06440>
ye [so] sadly
<07451>
to day
<03117>_?
{look...: Heb. are your faces evil?}
And they said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, We have dreamed
<02492> (8804)
a dream
<02472>_,
and [there is] no interpreter
<06622> (8802)
of it. And Joseph
<03130>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto them, [Do] not interpretations
<06623>
[belong] to God
<0430>_?
tell me
<05608> (8761)
[them], I pray you.
And the chief
<08269>
butler
<08248> (8688)
told
<05608> (8762)
his dream
<02472>
to Joseph
<03130>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)
to him, In my dream
<02472>_,
behold, a vine
<01612>
[was] before me
<06440>_;
And in the vine
<01612>
[were] three
<07969>
branches
<08299>_:
and it [was] as though it budded
<06524> (8802)_,
[and] her blossoms
<05322>
shot forth
<05927> (8804)_;
and the clusters
<0811>
thereof brought forth ripe
<01310> (8689)
grapes
<06025>_:
And Pharaoh's
<06547>
cup
<03563>
[was] in my hand
<03027>_:
and I took
<03947> (8799)
the grapes
<06025>_,
and pressed
<07818> (8799)
them into Pharaoh's
<06547>
cup
<03563>_,
and I gave
<05414> (8799)
the cup
<03563>
into Pharaoh's
<06547>
hand
<03709>_.
And Joseph
<03130>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, This [is] the interpretation
<06623>
of it: The three
<07969>
branches
<08299>
[are] three
<07969>
days
<03117>_:
Yet
<05750>
within three
<07969>
days
<03117>
shall Pharaoh
<06547>
lift up
<05375> (8799)
thine head
<07218>_,
and restore
<07725> (8689)
thee unto thy place
<03653>_:
and thou shalt deliver
<05414> (8804)
Pharaoh's
<06547>
cup
<03563>
into his hand
<03027>_,
after the former
<07223>
manner
<04941>
when thou wast his butler
<08248> (8688)_.
{lift...: or, reckon}
But think
<02142> (8804)
on me when it shall be well
<03190> (8799)
with thee, and shew
<06213> (8804)
kindness
<02617>_,
I pray thee, unto me, and make mention
<02142> (8689)
of me unto Pharaoh
<06547>_,
and bring me
<03318> (8689)
out of this house
<01004>_:
{think...: Heb. remember me with thee}
For indeed I was stolen away
<01589> (8795)
out of the land
<0776>
of the Hebrews
<05680>_:
and here also have I done
<06213> (8804)
nothing
<03972>
that they should put
<07760> (8804)
me into the dungeon
<0953>_.
When the chief
<08269>
baker
<0644> (8802)
saw
<07200> (8799)
that the interpretation
<06622> (8804)
was good
<02896>_,
he said
<0559> (8799)
unto Joseph
<03130>_,
I also
<0637>
[was] in my dream
<02472>_,
and, behold, [I had] three
<07969>
white
<02751>
baskets
<05536>
on my head
<07218>_:
{white: or, full of holes}
And in the uppermost
<05945>
basket
<05536>
[there was] of all manner
<03978>
of bakemeats
<04639> <0644> (8802)
for Pharaoh
<06547>_;
and the birds
<05775>
did eat
<0398> (8802)
them out of the basket
<05536>
upon
<05921>
my head
<07218>_.
{bakemeats...: Heb. meat of Pharaoh, the work of a baker, or, cook}
And Joseph
<03130>
answered
<06030> (8799)
and said
<0559> (8799)_,
This [is] the interpretation
<06623>
thereof: The three
<07969>
baskets
<05536>
[are] three
<07969>
days
<03117>_:
Yet within three
<07969>
days
<03117>
shall Pharaoh
<06547>
lift up
<05375> (8799)
thy head
<07218>
from off thee, and shall hang
<08518> (8804)
thee on a tree
<06086>_;
and the birds
<05775>
shall eat
<0398> (8804)
thy flesh
<01320>
from off thee. {lift...: or, reckon thee, and take thy office from thee}
And it came to pass the third
<07992>
day
<03117>_,
[which was] Pharaoh's
<06547>
birthday
<03117> <03205> (8715)_,
that he made
<06213> (8799)
a feast
<04960>
unto all his servants
<05650>_:
and he lifted up
<05375> (8799)
the head
<07218>
of the chief
<08269>
butler
<08248> (8688)
and of the chief
<08269>
baker
<0644> (8802)
among
<08432>
his servants
<05650>_.
{lifted...: or, reckoned}
And he restored
<07725> (0)
the chief
<08269>
butler
<08248> (8688)
unto his butlership
<04945>
again
<07725> (8686)_;
and he gave
<05414> (8799)
the cup
<03563>
into Pharaoh's
<06547>
hand
<03709>_:
But he hanged
<08518> (8804)
the chief
<08269>
baker
<0644> (8802)_:
as Joseph
<03130>
had interpreted
<06622> (8804)
to them.
Yet did not the chief
<08269>
butler
<08248> (8688)
remember
<02142> (8804)
Joseph
<03130>_,
but forgat
<07911> (8799)
him.
And it came to pass at the end
<07093>
of two full
<03117>
years
<08141>_,
that Pharaoh
<06547>
dreamed
<02492> (8802)_:
and, behold, he stood
<05975> (8802)
by the river
<02975>_.
And, behold, there came up
<05927> (8802)
out of the river
<02975>
seven
<07651>
well
<03303>
favoured
<04758>
kine
<06510>
and fatfleshed
<01277> <01320>_;
and they fed
<07462> (8799)
in a meadow
<0260>_.
And, behold, seven
<07651>
other
<0312>
kine
<06510>
came up
<05927> (8802)
after them
<0310>
out of the river
<02975>_,
ill
<07451>
favoured
<04758>
and leanfleshed
<01851> <01320>_;
and stood
<05975> (8799)
by
<0681>
the [other] kine
<06510>
upon the brink
<08193>
of the river
<02975>_.
And the ill
<07451>
favoured
<04758>
and leanfleshed
<01851> <01320>
kine
<06510>
did eat up
<0398> (8799)
the seven
<07651>
well
<03303>
favoured
<04758>
and fat
<01277>
kine
<06510>_.
So Pharaoh
<06547>
awoke
<03364> (8799)_.
And he slept
<03462> (8799)
and dreamed
<02492> (8799)
the second time
<08145>_:
and, behold, seven
<07651>
ears of corn
<07641>
came up
<05927> (8802)
upon one
<0259>
stalk
<07070>_,
rank
<01277>
and good
<02896>_.
{rank: Heb. fat}
And, behold, seven
<07651>
thin
<01851>
ears
<07641>
and blasted
<07710> (8803)
with the east wind
<06921>
sprung up
<06779> (8802)
after them
<0310>_.
And the seven thin
<01851>
ears
<07641>
devoured
<01104> (8799)
the seven
<07651>
rank
<01277>
and full
<04392>
ears
<07641>_.
And Pharaoh
<06547>
awoke
<03364> (8799)_,
and, behold, [it was] a dream
<02472>_.
And it came to pass in the morning
<01242>
that his spirit
<07307>
was troubled
<06470> (8735)_;
and he sent
<07971> (8799)
and called
<07121> (8799)
for all the magicians
<02748>
of Egypt
<04714>_,
and all the wise men
<02450>
thereof: and Pharaoh
<06547>
told
<05608> (8762)
them his dream
<02472>_;
but [there was] none that could interpret
<06622> (8802)
them unto Pharaoh
<06547>_.
Then spake
<01696> (8762)
the chief
<08269>
butler
<08248> (8688)
unto Pharaoh
<06547>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
I do remember
<02142> (8688)
my faults
<02399>
this day
<03117>_:
Pharaoh
<06547>
was wroth
<07107> (8804)
with his servants
<05650>_,
and put
<05414> (8799)
me in ward
<04929>
in the captain
<08269>
of the guard's
<02876>
house
<01004>_,
[both] me and the chief
<08269>
baker
<0644> (8802)_:
And we dreamed
<02492> (8799)
a dream
<02472>
in one
<0259>
night
<03915>_,
I and he; we dreamed
<02492> (8804)
each man
<0376>
according to the interpretation
<06623>
of his dream
<02472>_.
And [there was] there with us a young man
<05288>_,
an Hebrew
<05680>_,
servant
<05650>
to the captain
<08269>
of the guard
<02876>_;
and we told
<05608> (8762)
him, and he interpreted
<06622> (8799)
to us our dreams
<02472>_;
to each man
<0376>
according to his dream
<02472>
he did interpret
<06622> (8804)_.
And it came to pass, as he interpreted
<06622> (8804)
to us, so it was; me he restored
<07725> (8689)
unto mine office
<03653>_,
and him he hanged
<08518> (8804)_.
Then Pharaoh
<06547>
sent
<07971> (8799)
and called
<07121> (8799)
Joseph
<03130>_,
and they brought him hastily
<07323> (8686)
out of the dungeon
<0953>_:
and he shaved
<01548> (8762)
[himself], and changed
<02498> (8762)
his raiment
<08071>_,
and came in
<0935> (8804)
unto Pharaoh
<06547>_.
{brought...: Heb. made him run}
And Pharaoh
<06547>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto Joseph
<03130>_,
I have dreamed
<02492> (8804)
a dream
<02472>_,
and [there is] none that can interpret
<06622> (8802)
it: and I have heard
<08085> (8804)
say
<0559> (8800)
of thee, [that] thou canst understand
<08085> (8799)
a dream
<02472>
to interpret
<06622> (8800)
it. {thou...: or, when thou hearest a dream thou canst interpret it}
And Joseph
<03130>
answered
<06030> (8799)
Pharaoh
<06547>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
[It is] not in me
<01107>_:
God
<0430>
shall give
<06030> (0)
Pharaoh
<06547>
an answer
<06030> (8799)
of peace
<07965>_.
And Pharaoh
<06547>
said
<01696> (8762)
unto Joseph
<03130>_,
In my dream
<02472>_,
behold, I stood
<05975> (8802)
upon the bank
<08193>
of the river
<02975>_:
And, behold, there came up
<05927> (8802)
out of the river
<02975>
seven
<07651>
kine
<06510>_,
fatfleshed
<01277> <01320>
and well
<03303>
favoured
<08389>_;
and they fed
<07462> (8799)
in a meadow
<0260>_:
And, behold, seven
<07651>
other
<0312>
kine
<06510>
came up
<05927> (8802)
after them
<0310>_,
poor
<01803>
and very
<03966>
ill
<07451>
favoured
<08389>
and leanfleshed
<07534> <01320>_,
such
<02007>
as I never
<03808>
saw
<07200> (8804)
in all the land
<0776>
of Egypt
<04714>
for badness
<07455>_:
And the lean
<07534>
and the ill favoured
<07451>
kine
<06510>
did eat up
<0398> (8799)
the first
<07223>
seven
<07651>
fat
<01277>
kine
<06510>_:
And when they had eaten them up
<0935> (8799) <07130>_,
it could not be known
<03045> (8738)
that they had eaten them
<0935> (8804) <07130>_;
but they [were] still
<04758>
ill favoured
<07451>_,
as at the beginning
<08462>_.
So I awoke
<03364> (8799)_.
{eaten...: Heb. come to the inward parts of them}
And I saw
<07200> (8799)
in my dream
<02472>_,
and, behold, seven
<07651>
ears
<07641>
came up
<05927> (8802)
in one
<0259>
stalk
<07070>_,
full
<04392>
and good
<02896>_:
And, behold, seven
<07651>
ears
<07641>_,
withered
<06798> (8803)_,
thin
<01851>_,
[and] blasted
<07710> (8803)
with the east wind
<06921>_,
sprung up
<06779> (8802)
after them
<0310>_:
{withered: or, small}
And the thin
<01851>
ears
<07641>
devoured
<01104> (8799)
the seven
<07651>
good
<02896>
ears
<07641>_:
and I told
<0559> (8799)
[this] unto the magicians
<02748>_;
but [there was] none that could declare
<05046> (8688)
[it] to me.
And Joseph
<03130>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto Pharaoh
<06547>_,
The dream
<02472>
of Pharaoh
<06547>
[is] one
<0259>_:
God
<0430>
hath shewed
<05046> (8689)
Pharaoh
<06547>
what he [is] about to do
<06213> (8802)_.
The seven
<07651>
good
<02896>
kine
<06510>
[are] seven
<07651>
years
<08141>_;
and the seven
<07651>
good
<02896>
ears
<07641>
[are] seven
<07651>
years
<08141>_:
the dream
<02472>
[is] one
<0259>_.
And the seven
<07651>
thin
<07534>
and ill favoured
<07451>
kine
<06510>
that came up
<05927> (8802)
after them
<0310>
[are] seven
<07651>
years
<08141>_;
and the seven
<07651>
empty
<07386>
ears
<07641>
blasted
<07710> (8803)
with the east wind
<06921>
shall be seven
<07651>
years
<08141>
of famine
<07458>_.
This [is] the thing
<01697>
which I have spoken
<01696> (8765)
unto Pharaoh
<06547>_:
What God
<0430>
[is] about to do
<06213> (8802)
he sheweth
<07200> (8689)
unto Pharaoh
<06547>_.
Behold, there come
<0935> (8802)
seven
<07651>
years
<08141>
of great
<01419>
plenty
<07647>
throughout all the land
<0776>
of Egypt
<04714>_:
And there shall arise
<06965> (8804)
after them
<0310>
seven
<07651>
years
<08141>
of famine
<07458>_;
and all the plenty
<07647>
shall be forgotten
<07911> (8738)
in the land
<0776>
of Egypt
<04714>_;
and the famine
<07458>
shall consume
<03615> (8765)
the land
<0776>_;
And the plenty
<07647>
shall not be known
<03045> (8735)
in the land
<0776>
by reason
<06440>
of that famine
<07458>
following
<0310> <03651>_;
for it [shall be] very
<03966>
grievous
<03515>_.
{grievous: Heb. heavy}
And for that the dream
<02472>
was doubled
<08138> (8736)
unto Pharaoh
<06547>
twice
<06471>_;
[it is] because the thing
<01697>
[is] established
<03559> (8737)
by
<05973>
God
<0430>_,
and God
<0430>
will shortly
<04116> (8764)
bring it to pass
<06213> (8800)_.
{established...: or, prepared of God}
Now therefore let Pharaoh
<06547>
look out
<07200> (8799)
a man
<0376>
discreet
<0995> (8737)
and wise
<02450>_,
and set
<07896> (8799)
him over the land
<0776>
of Egypt
<04714>_.
Let Pharaoh
<06547>
do
<06213> (8799)
[this], and let him appoint
<06485> (8686)
officers
<06496>
over the land
<0776>_,
and take up the fifth part
<02567> (8765)
of the land
<0776>
of Egypt
<04714>
in the seven
<07651>
plenteous
<07647>
years
<08141>_.
{officers: or, overseers}
And let them gather
<06908> (8799)
all the food
<0400>
of those good
<02896>
years
<08141>
that come
<0935> (8802)_,
and lay up
<06651> (8799)
corn
<01250>
under the hand
<03027>
of Pharaoh
<06547>_,
and let them keep
<08104> (8804)
food
<0400>
in the cities
<05892>_.
And that food
<0400>
shall be for store
<06487>
to the land
<0776>
against the seven
<07651>
years
<08141>
of famine
<07458>_,
which shall be in the land
<0776>
of Egypt
<04714>_;
that the land
<0776>
perish
<03772> (8735)
not through the famine
<07458>_.
{perish...: Heb. be not cut off}
And the thing
<01697>
was good
<03190> (8799)
in the eyes
<05869>
of Pharaoh
<06547>_,
and in the eyes
<05869>
of all his servants
<05650>_.
And Pharaoh
<06547>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto his servants
<05650>_,
Can we find
<04672> (8799)
[such a one] as this
<02088>
[is], a man
<0376>
in whom
<0834>
the Spirit
<07307>
of God
<0430>
[is]?
And Pharaoh
<06547>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto Joseph
<03130>_,
Forasmuch
<0310>
as God
<0430>
hath shewed
<03045> (8687)
thee all this, [there is] none so discreet
<0995> (8737)
and wise
<02450>
as thou [art]:
Thou shalt be
<01961> (8799)
over my house
<01004>_,
and according unto thy word
<06310>
shall all my people
<05971>
be ruled
<05401> (8799)_:
only in the throne
<03678>
will I be greater
<01431> (8799)
than thou. {be ruled: Heb. be armed, or, kiss}
And Pharaoh
<06547>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto Joseph
<03130>_,
See
<07200> (8798)_,
I have set
<05414> (8804)
thee over all the land
<0776>
of Egypt
<04714>_.
And Pharaoh
<06547>
took off
<05493> (8686)
his ring
<02885>
from his hand
<03027>_,
and put
<05414> (8799)
it upon Joseph's
<03130>
hand
<03027>_,
and arrayed
<03847> (8686)
him in vestures
<0899>
of fine linen
<08336>_,
and put
<07760> (8799)
a gold
<02091>
chain
<07242>
about his neck
<06677>_;
{fine...: or, silk}
And he made him to ride
<07392> (8686)
in the second
<04932>
chariot
<04818>
which he had; and they cried
<07121> (8799)
before him
<06440>_,
Bow the knee
<086>_:
and he made
<05414> (8800)
him [ruler] over all the land
<0776>
of Egypt
<04714>_.
{Bow...: or, Tender father: Heb. Abrech}
And Pharaoh
<06547>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto Joseph
<03130>_,
I [am] Pharaoh
<06547>_,
and without
<01107>
thee shall no man
<0376>
lift up
<07311> (8686)
his hand
<03027>
or foot
<07272>
in all the land
<0776>
of Egypt
<04714>_.
And Pharaoh
<06547>
called
<07121> (8799)
Joseph's
<03130>
name
<08034>
Zaphnathpaaneah
<06847>_;
and he gave
<05414> (8799)
him to wife
<0802>
Asenath
<0621>
the daughter
<01323>
of Potipherah
<06319>
priest
<03548>
of On
<0204>_.
And Joseph
<03130>
went out
<03318> (8799)
over [all] the land
<0776>
of Egypt
<04714>_.
{Zaphnathpaaneah: which in the Coptic signifies, A revealer of secrets, or, The man to whom secrets are revealed} {priest: or, prince}
And Joseph
<03130>
[was] thirty
<07970>
years
<08141>
old
<01121>
when he stood
<05975> (8800)
before
<06440>
Pharaoh
<06547>
king
<04428>
of Egypt
<04714>_.
And Joseph
<03130>
went out
<03318> (8799)
from the presence
<06440>
of Pharaoh
<06547>_,
and went throughout
<05674> (8799)
all the land
<0776>
of Egypt
<04714>_.
And in the seven
<07651>
plenteous
<07647>
years
<08141>
the earth
<0776>
brought forth
<06213> (8799)
by handfuls
<07062>_.
And he gathered up
<06908> (8799)
all the food
<0400>
of the seven
<07651>
years
<08141>_,
which were in the land
<0776>
of Egypt
<04714>_,
and laid up
<05414> (8799)
the food
<0400>
in the cities
<05892>_:
the food
<0400>
of the field
<07704>_,
which [was] round about
<05439>
every city
<05892>_,
laid he up
<05414> (8804)
in the same
<08432>_.
And Joseph
<03130>
gathered
<06651> (8799)
corn
<01250>
as the sand
<02344>
of the sea
<03220>_,
very
<03966>
much
<07235> (8687)_,
until he left
<02308> (8804)
numbering
<05608> (8800)_;
for [it was] without
<0369>
number
<04557>_.
And unto Joseph
<03130>
were born
<03205> (8795)
two
<08147>
sons
<01121>
before the years
<08141>
of famine
<07458>
came
<0935> (8799)_,
which Asenath
<0621>
the daughter
<01323>
of Potipherah
<06319>
priest
<03548>
of On
<0204>
bare
<03205> (8804)
unto him. {priest: or, prince}
And Joseph
<03130>
called
<07121> (8799)
the name
<08034>
of the firstborn
<01060>
Manasseh
<04519>_:
For God
<0430>_,
[said he], hath made me forget
<05382> (8765)
all my toil
<05999>_,
and all my father's
<01>
house
<01004>_.
{Manasseh: that is, Forgetting}
And the name
<08034>
of the second
<08145>
called
<07121> (8804)
he Ephraim
<0669>_:
For God
<0430>
hath caused me to be fruitful
<06509> (8689)
in the land
<0776>
of my affliction
<06040>_.
{Ephraim: that is, Fruitful}
And the seven
<07651>
years
<08141>
of plenteousness
<07647>_,
that was in the land
<0776>
of Egypt
<04714>_,
were ended
<03615> (8799)_.
And the seven
<07651>
years
<08141>
of dearth
<07458>
began
<02490> (8686)
to come
<0935> (8800)_,
according as Joseph
<03130>
had said
<0559> (8804)_:
and the dearth
<07458>
was in all lands
<0776>_;
but in all the land
<0776>
of Egypt
<04714>
there was bread
<03899>_.
And when all the land
<0776>
of Egypt
<04714>
was famished
<07456> (8799)_,
the people
<05971>
cried
<06817> (8799)
to Pharaoh
<06547>
for bread
<03899>_:
and Pharaoh
<06547>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto all the Egyptians
<04714>_,
Go
<03212> (8798)
unto Joseph
<03130>_;
what he saith
<0559> (8799)
to you, do
<06213> (8799)_.
And the famine
<07458>
was over all the face
<06440>
of the earth
<0776>_:
And Joseph
<03130>
opened
<06605> (8799)
all the storehouses, and sold
<07666> (8799)
unto the Egyptians
<04714>_;
and the famine
<07458>
waxed sore
<02388> (8799)
in the land
<0776>
of Egypt
<04714>_.
{all the storehouses: Heb. all wherein was}
And all countries
<0776>
came
<0935> (8804)
into Egypt
<04714>
to Joseph
<03130>
for to buy
<07666> (8800)
[corn]; because that the famine
<07458>
was [so] sore
<02388> (8804)
in all lands
<0776>_.
Now when Jacob
<03290>
saw
<07200> (8799)
that there was
<03426>
corn
<07668>
in Egypt
<04714>_,
Jacob
<03290>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto his sons
<01121>_,
Why do ye look
<07200> (8691)
one upon another?
And he said
<0559> (8799)_,
Behold, I have heard
<08085> (8804)
that there is
<03426>
corn
<07668>
in Egypt
<04714>_:
get you down
<03381> (8798)
thither, and buy
<07666> (8798)
for us from thence; that we may live
<02421> (8799)_,
and not die
<04191> (8799)_.
And Joseph's
<03130>
ten
<06235>
brethren
<0251>
went down
<03381> (8799)
to buy
<07666> (8800)
corn
<01250>
in Egypt
<04714>_.
But Benjamin
<01144>_,
Joseph's
<03130>
brother
<0251>_,
Jacob
<03290>
sent
<07971> (8804)
not with his brethren
<0251>_;
for he said
<0559> (8804)_,
Lest peradventure
<06435>
mischief
<0611>
befall him
<07122> (8799)_.
And the sons
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>
came
<0935> (8799)
to buy
<07666> (8800)
[corn] among
<08432>
those that came
<0935> (8802)_:
for the famine
<07458>
was in the land
<0776>
of Canaan
<03667>_.
And Joseph
<03130>
[was] the governor
<07989>
over the land
<0776>_,
[and] he [it was] that sold
<07666> (8688)
to all the people
<05971>
of the land
<0776>_:
and Joseph's
<03130>
brethren
<0251>
came
<0935> (8799)_,
and bowed down
<07812> (8691)
themselves before him [with] their faces
<0639>
to the earth
<0776>_.
And Joseph
<03130>
saw
<07200> (8799)
his brethren
<0251>_,
and he knew
<05234> (8686)
them, but made himself strange
<05234> (8691)
unto them, and spake
<01696> (8762)
roughly
<07186>
unto them; and he said
<0559> (8799)
unto them, Whence
<0370>
come
<0935> (8804)
ye? And they said
<0559> (8799)_,
From the land
<0776>
of Canaan
<03667>
to buy
<07666> (8800)
food
<0400>_.
{roughly...: Heb. hard things with them}
And Joseph
<03130>
knew
<05234> (8686)
his brethren
<0251>_,
but they knew
<05234> (8689)
not him.
And Joseph
<03130>
remembered
<02142> (8799)
the dreams
<02472>
which he dreamed
<02492> (8804)
of them, and said
<0559> (8799)
unto them, Ye [are] spies
<07270> (8764)_;
to see
<07200> (8800)
the nakedness
<06172>
of the land
<0776>
ye are come
<0935> (8804)_.
And they said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, Nay, my lord
<0113>_,
but to buy
<07666> (8800)
food
<0400>
are thy servants
<05650>
come
<0935> (8804)_.
We
<05168>
[are] all one
<0259>
man's
<0376>
sons
<01121>_;
we [are] true
<03651>
[men], thy servants
<05650>
are no spies
<07270> (8764)_.
And he said
<0559> (8799)
unto them, Nay, but to see
<07200> (8800)
the nakedness
<06172>
of the land
<0776>
ye are come
<0935> (8804)_.
And they said
<0559> (8799)_,
Thy servants
<05650>
[are] twelve
<08147> <06240>
brethren
<0251>_,
the sons
<01121>
of one
<0259>
man
<0376>
in the land
<0776>
of Canaan
<03667>_;
and, behold, the youngest
<06996>
[is] this day
<03117>
with our father
<01>_,
and one
<0259>
[is] not.
And Joseph
<03130>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto them, That [is it] that I spake
<01696> (8765)
unto you, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Ye [are] spies
<07270> (8764)_:
Hereby
<02063>
ye shall be proved
<0974> (8735)_:
By the life
<02416>
of Pharaoh
<06547>
ye shall not go forth
<03318> (8799)
hence, except your youngest
<06996>
brother
<0251>
come
<0935> (8800)
hither.
Send
<07971> (8798)
one
<0259>
of you, and let him fetch
<03947> (8799)
your brother
<0251>_,
and ye shall be kept in prison
<0631> (8734)_,
that your words
<01697>
may be proved
<0974> (8735)_,
whether [there be any] truth
<0571>
in
<0854>
you: or else
<03808>
by the life
<02416>
of Pharaoh
<06547>
surely ye [are] spies
<07270> (8764)_.
{kept...: Heb. bound}
And he put them all together
<0622> (8799)
into ward
<04929>
three
<07969>
days
<03117>_.
{put: Heb. gathered}
And Joseph
<03130>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto them the third
<07992>
day
<03117>_,
This do
<06213> (8798)_,
and live
<02421> (8798)_;
[for] I fear
<03373>
God
<0430>_:
If ye [be] true
<03651>
[men], let one
<0259>
of your brethren
<0251>
be bound
<0631> (8735)
in the house
<01004>
of your prison
<04929>_:
go
<03212> (8798)
ye, carry
<0935> (8685)
corn
<07668>
for the famine
<07459>
of your houses
<01004>_:
But bring
<0935> (8686)
your youngest
<06996>
brother
<0251>
unto me; so shall your words
<01697>
be verified
<0539> (8735)_,
and ye shall not die
<04191> (8799)_.
And they did
<06213> (8799)
so.
And they said
<0559> (8799)
one
<0376>
to another
<0251>_,
We [are] verily
<061>
guilty
<0818>
concerning our brother
<0251>_,
in that
<0834>
we saw
<07200> (8804)
the anguish
<06869>
of his soul
<05315>_,
when he besought
<02603> (8692)
us, and we would not hear
<08085> (8804)_;
therefore is this distress
<06869>
come
<0935> (8804)
upon us.
And Reuben
<07205>
answered
<06030> (8799)
them, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Spake I
<0559> (8804)
not unto you, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Do not sin
<02398> (8799)
against the child
<03206>_;
and ye would not hear
<08085> (8804)_?
therefore, behold, also his blood
<01818>
is required
<01875> (8738)_.
And they knew
<03045> (8804)
not that Joseph
<03130>
understood
<08085> (8802)
[them]; for he spake unto them by an interpreter
<03887> (8688)_.
{he spake...: Heb. an interpreter was between them}
And he turned himself about
<05437> (8735)
from them, and wept
<01058> (8799)_;
and returned to them again
<07725> (8799)_,
and communed
<01696> (8762)
with them, and took
<03947> (8799)
from them Simeon
<08095>_,
and bound
<0631> (8799)
him before their eyes
<05869>_.
Then Joseph
<03130>
commanded
<06680> (8762)
to fill
<04390> (8762)
their sacks
<03627>
with corn
<01250>_,
and to restore
<07725> (8687)
every man's
<0376>
money
<03701>
into his sack
<08242>_,
and to give
<05414> (8800)
them provision
<06720>
for the way
<01870>_:
and thus
<03651>
did he
<06213> (8799)
unto them.
And they laded
<05375> (8799)
their asses
<02543>
with the corn
<07668>_,
and departed
<03212> (8799)
thence.
And as one
<0259>
of them opened
<06605> (8799)
his sack
<08242>
to give
<05414> (8800)
his ass
<02543>
provender
<04554>
in the inn
<04411>_,
he espied
<07200> (8799)
his money
<03701>_;
for, behold, it [was] in his sack's
<0572>
mouth
<06310>_.
And he said
<0559> (8799)
unto his brethren
<0251>_,
My money
<03701>
is restored
<07725> (8717)_;
and, lo
<02009>_,
[it is] even in my sack
<0572>_:
and their heart
<03820>
failed
<03318> (8799)
[them], and they were afraid
<02729> (8799)_,
saying
<0559> (8800)
one
<0376>
to another
<0251>_,
What [is] this [that] God
<0430>
hath done
<06213> (8804)
unto us? {failed...: Heb. went forth}
And they came
<0935> (8799)
unto Jacob
<03290>
their father
<01>
unto the land
<0776>
of Canaan
<03667>_,
and told
<05046> (8686)
him all that befell
<07136> (8802)
unto them; saying
<0559> (8800)_,
The man
<0376>_,
[who is] the lord
<0113>
of the land
<0776>_,
spake
<01696> (8765)
roughly
<07186>
to us, and took
<05414> (8799)
us for spies
<07270> (8764)
of the country
<0776>_.
{roughly...: Heb. with us hard things}
And we said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, We [are] true
<03651>
[men]; we are no spies
<07270> (8764)_:
We [be] twelve
<06240> <08147>
brethren
<0251>_,
sons
<01121>
of our father
<01>_;
one
<0259>
[is] not, and the youngest
<06996>
[is] this day
<03117>
with our father
<01>
in the land
<0776>
of Canaan
<03667>_.
And the man
<0376>_,
the lord
<0113>
of the country
<0776>_,
said
<0559> (8799)
unto us, Hereby shall I know
<03045> (8799)
that ye [are] true
<03651>
[men]; leave
<03240> (8685)
one
<0259>
of your brethren
<0251>
[here] with me, and take
<03947> (8798)
[food for] the famine
<07459>
of your households
<01004>_,
and be gone
<03212> (8798)_:
And bring
<0935> (8685)
your youngest
<06996>
brother
<0251>
unto me: then shall I know
<03045> (8799)
that ye [are] no spies
<07270> (8764)_,
but [that] ye [are] true
<03651>
[men: so] will I deliver
<05414> (8799)
you your brother
<0251>_,
and ye shall traffick
<05503> (8799)
in the land
<0776>_.
And it came to pass as they emptied
<07324> (8688)
their sacks
<08242>_,
that, behold, every man's
<0376>
bundle
<06872>
of money
<03701>
[was] in his sack
<08242>_:
and when [both] they and their father
<01>
saw
<07200> (8799)
the bundles
<06872>
of money
<03701>_,
they were afraid
<03372> (8799)_.
And Jacob
<03290>
their father
<01>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto them, Me have ye bereaved
<07921> (8765)
[of my children]: Joseph
<03130>
[is] not, and Simeon
<08095>
[is] not, and ye will take
<03947> (8799)
Benjamin
<01144>
[away]: all these things are against me.
And Reuben
<07205>
spake
<0559> (8799)
unto his father
<01>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Slay
<04191> (8686)
my two
<08147>
sons
<01121>_,
if I bring
<0935> (8686)
him not to thee: deliver
<05414> (8798)
him into my hand
<03027>_,
and I will bring him to thee again
<07725> (8686)_.
And he said
<0559> (8799)_,
My son
<01121>
shall not go down
<03381> (8799)
with you; for his brother
<0251>
is dead
<04191> (8804)_,
and he is left
<07604> (8738)
alone: if mischief
<0611>
befall
<07122> (8804)
him by the way
<01870>
in the which ye go
<03212> (8799)_,
then shall ye bring down
<03381> (8689)
my gray hairs
<07872>
with sorrow
<03015>
to the grave
<07585>_.
And the famine
<07458>
[was] sore
<03515>
in the land
<0776>_.
And it came to pass, when they had eaten up
<03615> (8765) <0398> (8800)
the corn
<07668>
which they had brought out
<0935> (8689)
of Egypt
<04714>_,
their father
<01>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto them, Go again
<07725> (8798)_,
buy
<07666> (8798)
us a little
<04592>
food
<0400>_.
And Judah
<03063>
spake
<0559> (8799)
unto him, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
The man
<0376>
did solemnly
<05749> (8687)
protest
<05749> (8689)
unto us, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Ye shall not see
<07200> (8799)
my face
<06440>_,
except
<01115>
your brother
<0251>
[be] with you. {did...: Heb. protesting protested}
If thou wilt
<03426>
send
<07971> (8764)
our brother
<0251>
with us, we will go down
<03381> (8799)
and buy
<07666> (8799)
thee food
<0400>_:
But if thou wilt not send
<07971> (8764)
[him], we will not go down
<03381> (8799)_:
for the man
<0376>
said
<0559> (8804)
unto us, Ye shall not see
<07200> (8799)
my face
<06440>_,
except your brother
<0251>
[be] with you.
And Israel
<03478>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
Wherefore dealt ye [so] ill
<07489> (8689)
with me, [as] to tell
<05046> (8687)
the man
<0376>
whether ye had yet a brother
<0251>_?
And they said
<0559> (8799)_,
The man
<0376>
asked
<07592> (8804)
us straitly
<07592> (8800)
of our state, and of our kindred
<04138>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
[Is] your father
<01>
yet alive
<02416>_?
have ye
<03426>
[another] brother
<0251>_?
and we told
<05046> (8686)
him according
<05921>
to the tenor
<06310>
of these words
<01697>_:
could we certainly
<03045> (8800)
know
<03045> (8799)
that he would say
<0559> (8799)_,
Bring
<03381> (0)
your brother
<0251>
down
<03381> (8685)_?
{asked...: Heb. asking asked us} {tenor: Heb. mouth} {could...: Heb. knowing could we know}
And Judah
<03063>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto Israel
<03478>
his father
<01>_,
Send
<07971> (8798)
the lad
<05288>
with me, and we will arise
<06965> (8799)
and go
<03212> (8799)_;
that we may live
<02421> (8799)_,
and not die
<04191> (8799)_,
both we, and thou, [and] also our little ones
<02945>_.
I will be surety
<06148> (8799)
for him; of my hand
<03027>
shalt thou require
<01245> (8762)
him: if
<0518> (0)
I bring
<0935> (8689)
him not
<0518>
unto thee, and set
<03322> (8689)
him before thee
<06440>_,
then let me bear the blame
<02398> (8804)
for ever
<03117>_:
For except
<03884>
we had lingered
<04102> (8701)_,
surely now we had returned
<07725> (8804)
this second time
<06471>_.
{this: or, twice by this}
And their father
<01>
Israel
<03478>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto them, If [it must be] so now
<0645>_,
do
<06213> (8798)
this; take
<03947> (8798)
of the best fruits
<02173>
in the land
<0776>
in your vessels
<03627>_,
and carry down
<03381> (8685)
the man
<0376>
a present
<04503>_,
a little
<04592>
balm
<06875>_,
and a little
<04592>
honey
<01706>_,
spices
<05219>_,
and myrrh
<03910>_,
nuts
<0992>_,
and almonds
<08247>_:
And take
<03947> (8798)
double
<04932>
money
<03701>
in your hand
<03027>_;
and the money
<03701>
that was brought again
<07725> (8716)
in the mouth
<06310>
of your sacks
<0572>_,
carry [it] again
<07725> (8686)
in your hand
<03027>_;
peradventure it [was] an oversight
<04870>_:
Take
<03947> (8798)
also your brother
<0251>_,
and arise
<06965> (8798)_,
go again
<07725> (8798)
unto the man
<0376>_:
And God
<0410>
Almighty
<07706>
give
<05414> (8799)
you mercy
<07356>
before
<06440>
the man
<0376>_,
that he may send away
<07971> (8765)
your other
<0312>
brother
<0251>_,
and Benjamin
<01144>_.
If
<0834>
I be bereaved
<07921> (8804)
[of my children], I am bereaved
<07921> (8804)_.
{If...: or, And I, as I have been, etc.}
And the men
<0582>
took
<03947> (8799)
that
<02063>
present
<04503>_,
and they took
<03947> (8804)
double
<04932>
money
<03701>
in their hand
<03027>_,
and Benjamin
<01144>_;
and rose up
<06965> (8799)_,
and went down
<03381> (8799)
to Egypt
<04714>_,
and stood
<05975> (8799)
before
<06440>
Joseph
<03130>_.
And when Joseph
<03130>
saw
<07200> (8799)
Benjamin
<01144>
with
<0854>
them, he said
<0559> (8799)
to the ruler of his house
<01004>_,
Bring
<0935> (8685)
[these] men
<0582>
home
<01004>_,
and slay
<02873> (8800) <02874>_,
and make ready
<03559> (8685)_;
for [these] men
<0582>
shall dine
<0398> (8799)
with me at noon
<06672>_.
{slay: Heb. kill a killing} {dine: Heb. eat}
And the man
<0376>
did
<06213> (8799)
as Joseph
<03130>
bade
<0559> (8804)_;
and the man
<0376>
brought
<0935> (8686)
the men
<0582>
into Joseph's
<03130>
house
<01004>_.
And the men
<0582>
were afraid
<03372> (8799)_,
because they were brought
<0935> (8717)
into Joseph's
<03130>
house
<01004>_;
and they said
<0559> (8799)_,
Because
<01697>
of the money
<03701>
that was returned
<07725> (8802)
in our sacks
<0572>
at the first time
<08462>
are we brought in
<0935> (8716)_;
that he may seek occasion
<01556> (8705)
against us, and fall
<05307> (8692)
upon us, and take
<03947> (8800)
us for bondmen
<05650>_,
and our asses
<02543>_.
{seek...: Heb. roll himself upon us}
And they came near
<05066> (8799)
to the steward
<0376>
of Joseph's
<03130>
house
<01004>_,
and they communed
<01696> (8762)
with him at the door
<06607>
of the house
<01004>_,
And said
<0559> (8799)_,
O
<0994>
sir
<0113>_,
we came indeed
<03381> (8800)
down
<03381> (8804)
at the first time
<08462>
to buy
<07666> (8800)
food
<0400>_:
{we...: Heb. coming down we came down}
And it came to pass, when we came
<0935> (8804)
to the inn
<04411>_,
that we opened
<06605> (8799)
our sacks
<0572>_,
and, behold, [every] man's
<0376>
money
<03701>
[was] in the mouth
<06310>
of his sack
<0572>_,
our money
<03701>
in full weight
<04948>_:
and we have brought it again
<07725> (8686)
in our hand
<03027>_.
And other
<0312>
money
<03701>
have we brought down
<03381> (8689)
in our hands
<03027>
to buy
<07666> (8800)
food
<0400>_:
we cannot tell
<03045> (8804)
who put
<07760> (8804)
our money
<03701>
in our sacks
<0572>_.
And he said
<0559> (8799)_,
Peace
<07965>
[be] to you, fear
<03372> (8799)
not: your God
<0430>_,
and the God
<0430>
of your father
<01>_,
hath given
<05414> (8804)
you treasure
<04301>
in your sacks
<0572>_:
I had
<0935> (8804)
your money
<03701>_.
And he brought
<03318> (8686)
Simeon
<08095>
out unto them. {I had...: Heb. your money came to me}
And the man
<0376>
brought
<0935> (8686)
the men
<0582>
into Joseph's
<03130>
house
<01004>_,
and gave
<05414> (8799)
[them] water
<04325>_,
and they washed
<07364> (8799)
their feet
<07272>_;
and he gave
<05414> (8799)
their asses
<02543>
provender
<04554>_.
And they made ready
<03559> (8686)
the present
<04503>
against
<05704>
Joseph
<03130>
came
<0935> (8800)
at noon
<06672>_:
for they heard
<08085> (8804)
that they should eat
<0398> (8799)
bread
<03899>
there.
And when Joseph
<03130>
came
<0935> (8799)
home
<01004>_,
they brought
<0935> (8686)
him the present
<04503>
which [was] in their hand
<03027>
into the house
<01004>_,
and bowed
<07812> (8691)
themselves to him to the earth
<0776>_.
And he asked
<07592> (8799)
them of [their] welfare
<07965>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)_,
[Is] your father
<01>
well
<07965>_,
the old man
<02205>
of whom ye spake
<0559> (8804)_?
[Is] he yet alive
<02416>_?
{welfare: Heb. peace} {Is your...: Heb. Is there peace to your father?}
And they answered
<0559> (8799)_,
Thy servant
<05650>
our father
<01>
[is] in good health
<07965>_,
he [is] yet alive
<02416>_.
And they bowed down their heads
<06915> (8799)_,
and made obeisance
<07812> (8691)_.
And he lifted up
<05375> (8799)
his eyes
<05869>_,
and saw
<07200> (8799)
his brother
<0251>
Benjamin
<01144>_,
his mother's
<0517>
son
<01121>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)_,
[Is] this your younger
<06996>
brother
<0251>_,
of whom ye spake
<0559> (8804)
unto me? And he said
<0559> (8799)_,
God
<0430>
be gracious
<02603> (8799)
unto thee, my son
<01121>_.
And Joseph
<03130>
made haste
<04116> (8762)_;
for his bowels
<07356>
did yearn
<03648> (8738)
upon his brother
<0251>_:
and he sought
<01245> (8762)
[where] to weep
<01058> (8800)_;
and he entered
<0935> (8799)
into [his] chamber
<02315>_,
and wept
<01058> (8799)
there.
And he washed
<07364> (8799)
his face
<06440>_,
and went out
<03318> (8799)_,
and refrained
<0662> (8691)
himself, and said
<0559> (8799)_,
Set on
<07760> (8798)
bread
<03899>_.
And they set on
<07760> (8799)
for him by himself, and for them by themselves, and for the Egyptians
<04713>_,
which did eat
<0398> (8802)
with him, by themselves: because the Egyptians
<04713>
might
<03201> (8799)
not eat
<0398> (8800)
bread
<03899>
with the Hebrews
<05680>_;
for that [is] an abomination
<08441>
unto the Egyptians
<04714>_.
And they sat
<03427> (8799)
before him
<06440>_,
the firstborn
<01060>
according to his birthright
<01062>_,
and the youngest
<06810>
according to his youth
<06812>_:
and the men
<0582>
marvelled
<08539> (8799)
one
<0376>
at another
<07453>_.
And he took
<05375> (8799)
[and sent] messes
<04864>
unto them from before him
