Genesis 42

1 And Jacob having seen that there was a sale [of corn] in Egypt, said to his sons, Why are you indolent?

And he saw Jacob that there [was] grain in Egypt and he said Jacob to sons his why? are you looking at one another.

2 Behold, I have heard that there is corn in Egypt; go down there, and buy for us a little food, that we may live, and not die.

And he said here! I have heard that there [is] grain in Egypt go down there towards and buy grain for us from there so we may live and not we will die.

3 And the ten brethren of Joseph went down to buy corn out of Egypt.

And they went down [the] brothers of Joseph ten to buy grain grain from Egypt.

4 But [Jacob] sent not Benjamin, the brother of Joseph, with his brethren; for he said, Lest, haply, disease befall him.

And Benjamin [the] brother of Joseph not he sent Jacob with brothers his for he said lest it should happen to him harm.

5 And the sons of Israel came to buy with those that came, for the famine was in the land of Chanaan.

And they came [the] sons of Israel to buy grain in among those coming for it was the famine in [the] land of Canaan.

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.

And Joseph he [was] the ruler over the land he [was] the [one who] sold grain to all [the] people of the land and they came [the] brothers of Joseph and they bowed down to him face [the] ground towards.

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 you come? And they said, Out of the land of Chanaan, to buy food.

And he saw Joseph brothers his and he recognized them and he acted as a stranger to them and he spoke with them harsh and he said to them from where? have you come and they said from [the] land of Canaan to buy food.

8 And Joseph knew his brethren, but they knew not him.

And he recognized Joseph brothers his and they not they recognized him.

9 And Joseph remembered his dream, which he saw; and he said to them, You are spies; to observe the marks of the land are you come.

And he remembered Joseph the dreams which he had dreamed of them and he said to them [are] spies you to see [the] nakedness of the land you have come.

10 But they said, Nay, Sir, we your servants are come to buy food;

And they said to him no O lord my and servants your they have come to buy food.

11 we are all sons of one man; we are peaceful, your servants are not spies.

All of us [are] sons of a man one we [are] honest we not they are servants your spies.

12 And he said to them, Nay, but you are come to observe the marks of the land.

And he said to them In-deed [the] nakedness of the land you have come to see.

13 And they said, We your servants are twelve brethren, in the land of Chanaan; and, behold, the youngest is with our father today, but the other one is not.

And they said [are] two [plus] ten servants your brothers - we sons of a man one in [the] land of Canaan and there! the young [brother] [is] with father our this day and the one not [is] he.

14 And Joseph said to them, This is it that I spoke to you, saying, you are spies;

And he said to them Joseph it [is that] which I said to you saying [are] spies you.

15 herein shall you be manifested; by the health of Pharao, you shall not depart hence, unless your younger brother come here.

By this you will be tested [by] [the] life of Pharaoh if you will go out from here that except when comes brother your young here.

16 Send one of you, and take your brother; and go you to prison, till your words be clear, whether you speak the truth or not; but, if not, by the health of Pharao, verily you are spies.

Send of yourselves one so he may fetch brother your and you be imprisoned so they may be tested words your ¿ [is] truth with you and if not [by] [the] life of Pharaoh for [are] spies you.

17 And he put them in prison three days.

And he removed them to custody three days.

18 And he said to them on the third day, This do, and you shall live, for I fear God.

And he said to them Joseph on the day third this do and live God I [am] fearing.

19 If you be peaceful, let one of your brethren be detained in prison; but go you, and carry back the corn you have purchased.

If [are] honest you brother your one let him be imprisoned in [the] house of custody your and you go take [the] grain of [the] hunger of households your.

20 And bring your younger brother to me, and your words shall be believed; but, if not, you shall die. And they did so.

And brother your young you will bring to me so they may be verified words your and not you will die and they did so.

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 implored us, and we listened not to him; and therefore has this affliction come upon us.

And they said each to brother his indeed [are] guilty - we on brother our who we saw [the] distress of self his when sought favor he to us and not we listened there-fore it has come to us the distress this.

22 And Ruben answered them, saying, Did I not speak to you, saying, Hurt not the boy, and you heard me not? and, behold, his blood is required.

And he answered Reuben them saying ¿ not did I say to you - saying may not you sin against the boy and not you listened and also blood his here! [is] being required.

23 But they knew not that Joseph understood them; for there was an interpreter between them.

And they not they knew that [was] hearing Joseph for the interpreter [was] between them.

24 And Joseph turned away from them, and wept; and again he came to them, and spoke to them; and he took Symeon from them, and bound him before their eyes.

And he turned away from with them and he wept and he returned to them and he spoke to them and he took from with them Simeon and he bound him to eyes their.

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.

And he commanded Joseph and people filled vessels their grain and to return silver their each to sack his and to give to them provision[s] for the journey and someone did for them thus.

26 And having put the corn on the asses, they departed thence.

And they lifted grain their on donkeys their and they went from there.

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.

And he opened the one sack his to give fodder to donkey his at the lodging place and he saw silver his and there! it [was] in [the] mouth of sack his.

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?

And he said to brothers his it has been returned silver my and also here! in sack my and it went out heart their and they trembled each to brother his saying what? this has he done God to us.

29 And they came to their father, Jacob, into the land of Chanaan, and reported to him all that had happened to them, saying,

And they came to Jacob father their [the] land of towards Canaan and they told to him all the [things which] had happened to them saying.

30 The man, the lord of the land, spoke harsh words to us, and put us in prison as spies of the land.

He spoke the man [the] lord of the land with us harsh and he made us like [those who] spy out the land.

31 And we said to him, We are men of peace, we are not spies.

And we said to him [are] honest we not we are spies.

32 We are twelve brethren, sons of our father; one is not, and the youngest is with his father today in the land of Chanaan.

[are] two [plus] Ten we brothers sons of father our the one not [is] he and the young [brother] this day [is] with father our in [the] land of Canaan.

33 And the man, the lord of the land, said to us, Herein shall I know that you are peaceful; leave one brother here with me, and having taken the corn you have purchased for your family, depart.

And he said to us the man [the] lord of the land by this I will know that [are] honest you brother your one leave with me and [the] hunger of households your take and go.

34 And bring to me your younger brother; then I shall know that you are not spies, but that you are men of peace: and I will restore you your brother, and you shall trade in the land.

And bring brother your young to me so let me know that not [are] spies you that [are] honest you brother your I will give to you and the land you will go about in.

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.

And it was they [were] emptying sacks their and there! each man [the] bag of silver his [was] in sack his and they saw [the] bags of silver their they and father their and they were afraid.

36 And their father Jacob said to them, You have bereaved me. Joseph is not, Symeon is not, and will you take Benjamin? all these things have come upon me.

And he said to them Jacob father their me you are making childless Joseph not [is] he and Simeon not [is] he and Benjamin you will take on me they are all of them.

37 And Ruben spoke to his father, saying, Slay my two sons, if I bring him not to you; give him into my hand, and I will bring him back to you.

And he said Reuben to father his saying two of sons my you will kill if not I will bring him to you put! him on hand my and I I will bring back him to you.

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 you go, then you shall bring down my old age with sorrow to Hades. (Sheol h7585)

And he said not he will go down son my with you for brother his he has died and he to only him [is] remaining and it will happen to him harm on the journey which you will go on it and you will cause to go down gray hair my in sorrow Sheol towards. (Sheol h7585)
