Genesis 44
1 Afterward he commanded his steward, saying, Fill the mens sackes with foode, as much as they can carry, and put euery mans money in his sackes mouth.
Oskrbniku svoje hiše je zapovedal, rekoč: »Vreče mož napolni s hrano, kolikor lahko nesejo in denar vsakega človeka položi v ustje njegove vreče.
2 And put my cup, I meane the siluer cup, in the sackes mouth of the yongest, and his corne money. And he did according to the commandement that Ioseph gaue him.
Mojo čašo pa, srebrno čašo, položi v ustje vreče najmlajšega in njegov žitni denar.« Ta je storil glede na besedo, ki jo je Jožef spregovoril.
3 And in the morning the men were sent away, they, and their asses.
Takoj, ko je bila zjutraj svetloba, so bili možje odposlani, oni in njihovi osli.
4 And when they went out of the citie not farre off, Ioseph sayd to his stewarde, Vp, follow after the men: and when thou doest ouertake them, say vnto them, Wherefore haue ye rewarded euill for good?
Ko so odšli ven iz mesta in še ne daleč proč, je Jožef rekel svojemu oskrbniku: »Vstani, sledi možem in ko jih boš dohitel, jim reci: ›Zakaj ste zlo nagradili za dobro?
5 Is that not the cuppe, wherein my Lord drinketh? and in the which he doeth deuine and prophecie? ye haue done euill in so doing.
Mar ni to tisto iz česar moj gospod pije in s čimer zares vedežuje? S takšnim dejanjem ste storili zlo.‹«
6 And when he ouertooke them, he sayde those wordes vnto them.
Ta jih je dohitel in jim spregovoril te iste besede.
7 And they answered him, Wherefore sayeth my lorde such wordes? God forbid that thy seruants should do such a thing.
Rekli so mu: »Zakaj moj gospod govori te besede? Bog ne daj, da bi tvoji služabniki storili glede na to stvar.
8 Behold, the money which we found in our sackes mouthes, wee brought againe to thee out of the land of Canaan: how then should we steale out of thy lordes house siluer or golde?
Glej, denar, ki smo ga našli v ustjih svojih vreč, smo iz kánaanske dežele ponovno prinesli k tebi, kako bi potem ukradli srebro ali zlato iz hiše tvojega gospodarja?
9 With whomesoeuer of thy seruants it bee found, let him dye, and we also will be my lordes bondmen.
Pri komerkoli izmed tvojih služabnikov bi bilo to najdeno, naj umre, mi pa bomo tudi sužnji mojemu gospodu.«
10 And he said, Now then let it be according vnto your wordes: he with whome it is found, shall be my seruant, and ye shalbe blamelesse.
Rekel je: » Naj bo sedaj tudi to glede na vaše besede. Ta, pri komer bo to najdeno, bo moj služabnik, vi pa boste brez krivde.«
11 Then at once euery man tooke downe his sacke to the grounde, and euery one opened his sacke.
Potem so naglo sneli vsak mož svojo vrečo k tlom in vsak mož je svojo vrečo odprl.
12 And he searched, and began at the eldest and left at the yongest: and the cuppe was found in Beniamins sacke.
On pa je iskal in začel pri najstarejšem in nehal pri najmlajšem in čaša je bila najdena v Benjaminovi vreči.
13 Then they rent their clothes, and laded euery man his asse, and went againe into the citie.
Potem so raztrgali svoja oblačila in vsak človek je otovoril svojega osla in vrnili so se v mesto.
14 So Iudah and his brethren came to Iosephs house (for he was yet there) and they fel before him on the ground.
Juda in njegovi bratje so prišli v Jožefovo hišo, kajti še je bil tam in padli so pred njim na tla.
15 Then Ioseph sayd vnto them, What acte is this, which ye haue done? know ye not that such a man as I, can deuine and prophecie?
Jožef jim je rekel: »Kakšno dejanje je to, kar ste storili? Ali ne veste, da tak mož, kakor jaz, lahko zagotovo vedežuje?«
16 Then sayd Iudah, What shall we say vnto my lord? what shall we speake? and howe can we iustifie our selues? God hath found out the wickednesse of thy seruants: beholde, we are seruants to my Lord, both wee, and he, with whome the cuppe is founde.
Juda je rekel: »Kaj bomo rekli mojemu gospodu? Kaj naj govorimo? Ali kako se bomo očistili? Bog je odkril krivičnost svojih služabnikov. Glej, mi smo gospodovi služabniki, tako mi, kakor tudi ta, pri komer se je našla čaša.«
17 But he answered, God forbid, that I should doe so, but the man, with whome the cuppe is founde, he shalbe my seruant, and go ye in peace vnto your father.
Rekel je: »Bog ne daj, da bi tako storil. Temveč človek, v čigar roki je najdena čaša, bo moj služabnik. Kar pa se tiče vas, se v miru dvignite k svojemu očetu.«
18 Then Iudah drewe neere vnto him, and sayde, O my Lord, let thy seruant nowe speake a worde in my lordes eares, and let not thy wrath be kindled against thy seruant: for thou art euen as Pharaoh.
Potem se mu je približal Juda in rekel: »Oh, moj gospod, naj tvoj služabnik, prosim te, spregovori besedo v ušesa mojega gospoda in naj tvoja jeza ne gori zoper tvojega služabnika, kajti ti si celo kakor faraon.
19 My Lord asked his seruants, saying, Haue ye a father, or a brother?
Moj gospod je svoje služabnike vprašal, rekoč: ›Imate očeta ali brata?‹
20 And we answered my Lord, We haue a father that is olde, and a young childe, which he begate in his age: and his brother is dead, and he alone is left of his mother, and his father loueth him.
In mi smo mojemu gospodu rekli: ›Imamo očeta, starca in otroka njegove visoke starosti, malčka. Njegov brat je mrtev in on je sam ostal od svoje matere in njegov oče ga ljubi.‹
21 Now thou saidest vnto thy seruants, Bring him vnto me, that I may set mine eye vpon him.
Ti pa si rekel svojim služabnikom: ›Privedite ga dol k meni, da lahko svoje oči usmerim nanj.‹
22 And we answered my lord, The childe can not depart from his father: for if he leaue his father, his father would die.
Mi pa smo mojemu gospodu rekli: ›Deček ne more zapustiti svojega očeta, kajti če bi zapustil svojega očeta, bi njegov oče umrl.‹
23 Then saydest thou vnto thy seruants, Except your yonger brother come downe with you, looke in my face no more.
Svojim služabnikom si rekel: ›Razen če pride dol z vami vaš najmlajši brat, ne boste več videli mojega obraza.‹
24 So when we came vnto thy seruant our father, and shewed him what my lord had sayd,
Pripetilo se je, ko smo prišli gor k tvojemu služabniku, mojemu očetu, da smo mu povedali besede mojega gospoda.
25 And our father sayde vnto vs, Goe againe, bye vs a litle foode,
Naš oče je rekel: ›Pojdite ponovno in nam kupite malo hrane.‹
26 Then we answered, We can not go downe: but if our yongest brother go with vs, then will we go downe: for we may not see the mans face, except our yongest brother be with vs.
Mi pa smo rekli: ›Ne moremo iti dol. Če bo z nami naš najmlajši brat, potem bomo šli dol, kajti ne smemo videti moževega obraza, razen če bo z nami naš najmlajši brat.‹
27 Then thy seruant my father sayde vnto vs, Ye knowe that my wife bare me two sonnes,
Tvoj služabnik, moj oče, nam je rekel: ›Vi veste, da mi je žena rodila dva sinova.
28 And the one went out from me, and I said, Of a suretie he is torne in pieces, and I sawe him not since.
Eden je odšel od mene in rekel sem: ›Zagotovo je raztrgan na koščke‹ in od takrat ga nisem videl.
29 Nowe yee take this also away from me: if death take him, then yee shall bring my graye head in sorowe to the graue. (Sheol h7585)
Če tudi tega vzamete od mene in ga zadene nesreča, boste moje sive lase z bridkostjo privedli do groba.‹ (Sheol h7585)
30 Nowe therefore, when I come to thy seruant my father, and the childe be not with vs (seeing that his life dependeth on the childes life)
Zdaj torej, ko pridem k tvojemu služabniku, svojemu očetu in dečka ne bo z nami, glede na to, da je njegovo življenje vezano na življenje dečka,
31 Then when hee shall see that the childe is not come, he will die: so shall thy seruants bring the graye head of thy seruant our father with sorowe to the graue. (Sheol h7585)
se bo zgodilo, ko bo videl, da dečka ni z nami, da bo umrl. Tvoji služabniki bodo sive lase tvojega služabnika, našega očeta, z bridkostjo privedli do groba. (Sheol h7585)
32 Doubtlesse thy seruant became suertie for the childe to my father, and said, If I bring him not vnto thee againe, then I will beare the blame vnto my father for euer.
Kajti tvoj služabnik je postal pôrok za dečka mojemu očetu, rekoč: ›Če ga ne privedem k tebi, potem bom na veke prinašal krivdo svojemu očetu.‹
33 Nowe therefore, I pray thee, let me thy seruant bide for the childe, as a seruant to my Lord, and let the childe go vp with his brethren.
Zdaj torej, prosim te, naj tvoj služabnik ostane namesto dečka suženj mojemu gospodu, deček pa naj gre gor s svojimi brati.
34 For how can I go vp to my father, if the childe be not with me, vnlesse I woulde see the euil that shall come on my father?
Kajti kako bom šel k svojemu očetu, dečka pa ne bo z menoj? Da ne bi morda videl zla, ki bi prišlo na mojega očeta.«
