Genesis 42:21-24

42:21

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.

42:22

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)_.

42:23

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}

42:24

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>_.

45:4

And Joseph
<03130>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto his brethren
<0251>_,

Come near
<05066> (8798)

to me, I pray you. And they came near
<05066> (8799)_.

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

I [am] Joseph
<03130>

your brother
<0251>_,

whom ye sold
<04376> (8804)

into Egypt
<04714>_.

45:5

Now therefore be not grieved
<06087> (8735)_,

nor angry
<02734> (8799)

with yourselves
<05869>_,

that ye sold
<04376> (8804)

me hither: for God
<0430>

did send
<07971> (8804)

me before you
<06440>

to preserve life
<04241>_.

{nor...: Heb. neither let there be anger in your eyes}

Genesis 45:8

45:8

So now [it was] not you [that] sent
<07971> (8804)

me hither, but God
<0430>_:

and he hath made
<07760> (8799)

me a father
<01>

to Pharaoh
<06547>_,

and lord
<0113>

of all his house
<01004>_,

and a ruler
<04910> (8802)

throughout all the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>_.
