Genesis 43
1 And the famine was sore in the land.
Глад же одоле на земли.
2 And it came to pass, when they had completely eaten up the provisions which they had brought out of Egypt, that their father said unto them, Go again, buy us a little food.
Бысть же егда скончаша пшеницу ядуще, юже принесоша из Египта: и рече им отец их: паки шедше купите нам мало пищи.
3 And Judah said unto him, thus, The man did solemnly protest unto us, saying, Ye shall not see my face, except your brother be with you.
Рече же ему Иуда, глаголя: клятвою засвидетелствова нам муж господин земли (тоя) глаголя: не узрите лица моего, аще брат ваш менший не приидет с вами:
4 If thou wilt send our brother with us, we will go down and buy thee food;
аще убо послеши брата нашего с нами, пойдем и купим тебе пищи:
5 But if thou sendest him not, we will not go down; for the man said unto us, Ye shall not see my face, except your brother be with you.
аще же не послеши брата нашего с нами, не пойдем: муж бо рече нам, глаголя: не узрите лица моего, аще брат ваш менший не приидет с вами.
6 And Israel said, Wherefore have ye dealt so ill with me, as to tell the man that ye have yet another brother?
Рече же Израиль: почто зло сотвористе ми, поведавше мужу, яко есть вам брат?
7 And they said, The man inquired particularly concerning us, and 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 possibly know that he would say, Bring down your brother?
Они же реша: вопрошая вопроси нас муж и рода нашего, глаголя: аще еще отец ваш жив есть, и аще есть вам брат? И поведахом ему по вопросу сему: еда ведехом, яко речет нам: приведите брата вашего?
8 And 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, as also our little ones.
Рече же Иуда ко Израилю, отцу своему: отпусти отрочища со мною: и воставше пойдем, да живи будем и не умрем, и мы и ты и имение наше:
9 I will be surety for him; from my hand shalt thou require him: if I bring him not unto thee, and set him before thee, then shall I have sinned against thee all the days.
аз же возму его: от руку моею взыщи его: аще не приведу его к тебе, и поставлю его пред тобою, грешен буду к тебе вся дни:
10 For, if we had not lingered, surely we had now returned the second time.
аще бо быхом не умедлили, уже возвратилися бы дважды.
11 And their father Israel said unto them, If it must be so now, do this: take of the best products of the land in your vessels, and carry down to the man a present, a little balm, and a little honey, spices and lotus, pistachio-nuts and almonds;
Рече же им Израиль отец их: аще тако есть, сие сотворите: возмите от плодов земных в сосуды своя и донесите человеку дары, ритину, мед, фимиама же и стакти, и теревинф и орехи:
12 And twofold money take in your hand; and the money that was put back in the mouth of your sacks, you must carry back in your hand; peradventure it was an oversight;
и сребро сугубо возмите в руце свои, и сребро обретенное во вретищах ваших возвратите с собою, да не како неведение есть:
13 Also your brother take along, and arise, go again unto the man.
и брата своего поимите, и воставше идите к мужу:
14 And may God the Almighty give you mercy before the man, that he may send away to you your other brother, and Benjamin. And I, if I am to be bereaved, let me be bereaved.
Бог же мой да даст вам благодать пред мужем и отпустит брата вашего единаго, и Вениамина: аз бо якоже обезчадех, обезчадех.
15 And the men took that present; and twofold money they took in their hand, as also Benjamin; and they rose up, and went down to Egypt, and stood before Joseph.
Вземше же мужие дары сия, и сребро сугубое взяша в руце свои, и Вениамина: и воставше приидоша во Египет, и сташа пред Иосифом.
16 And when Joseph saw Benjamin with them, he said to the superintendent of his house, Bring these men into the house, and slay, and make ready; for with me shall these men dine at noon.
Виде же их Иосиф, и Вениамина брата своего единоматерня, и рече строителю дому своего: введи мужы (сия) в дом, и заколи от скота, и уготовай: со мною бо ясти имут мужие (сии) хлеб в полудне.
17 And the man did as Joseph had said; and the man brought the men into Joseph's house.
Сотвори же человек, якоже рече Иосиф, и введе мужы в дом Иосифов.
18 And the men were afraid, because they were brought into Joseph's house: and they said, Because of the money that came back 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, together with our asses.
Видевше же мужие, яко введоша их в дом Иосифов, реша: сребра ради возвращеннаго во вретищах наших первее, вводят ны, еже бы оклеветати нас и нанести на ны, да поймут нас в рабы, и ослы нашя.
19 And they came near to the man who was appointed over Joseph's house, and they spoke with him at the door of the house.
Приступивше же к человеку сущему над домом Иосифовым, рекоша ему при вратех дому,
20 And they said, Pardon, my lord, we came down at the first time to buy food:
глаголюще: молим тя, господине: приидохом первее купити пищи:
21 And 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 its full weight; and we have brought it back in our hand.
бысть же егда приидохом на стан и отрешихом вретища своя, и се, сребро коегождо во вретищи его: тое сребро наше весом возвратихом ныне руками нашими:
22 And other money have we brought down in our hand to buy food; we know not who hath put our money in our sacks.
и сребро другое принесохом с собою купити пищи: не вемы, кто вложи сребро во вретища наша.
23 And he said, Peace be to you, fear not; your God, and the God of your father, hath given you a treasure in your sacks; your money hath come to me. And he brought Simeon out unto them.
Рече же им: мир вам, не бойтеся: Бог ваш и Бог отец ваших даде вам сокровища во вретищах ваших: а сребро ваше за приятое имею. И изведе к ним Симеона:
24 And the man brought the men into Joseph's house; and he gave them water, and they washed their feet, and he gave provender to their asses.
и принесе воду омыти нозе им, и даде пажити ослом их.
25 And they made ready the present before Joseph came home at noon; for they had heard that they should eat bread there.
Уготоваша же дары, дондеже приидет Иосиф в полудне: слышаша бо, яко тамо имать обедати.
26 And 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.
Прииде же Иосиф в дом: и принесоша ему дары, яже имяху в руках своих, в дом: и поклонишася ему лицем до земли.
27 And he asked them after their welfare, and said, Is your old father well, of whom ye spoke? is he yet alive?
И вопроси их: здрави ли есте? И рече им: здрав ли есть отец ваш, старец, егоже рекосте, еще ли жив есть?
28 And they answered, Thy servant, our father, is in good health, he is yet alive. And they bowed down their heads, and prostrated themselves.
Они же рекоша: здрав есть раб твой, отец наш, еще жив есть. И рече: благословен человек оный Богу. И приникше поклонишася ему.
29 And he lifted up his eyes, and saw his brother Benjamin, his mother's son, and said, Is this your youngest brother, of whom ye spoke unto me? And he said, God be gracious unto thee, my son.
Воззрев же очима своима Иосиф, виде Вениамина брата своего единоматерня и рече: сей ли есть брат ваш юнейший, егоже рекосте ко мне привести? И рече: Бог да помилует тя, чадо.
30 And Joseph hastened away, for his affection toward his brother became enkindled, and he sought to weep; and he entered into his chamber and wept there.
Возмутися же Иосиф: подвижеся бо утроба его о брате своем, и искаше плакати: вшед же в ложницу, плакася тамо.
31 And he washed his face, and came out, and refrained himself, and said, Set on the bread.
И умыв лице, изшед удержася и рече: предложите хлебы.
32 And they set on for him by himself, and for them by themselves; and for the Egyptians, who did eat with him, by themselves; because the Egyptians may not eat bread with the Hebrews; for that is an abomination unto the Egyptians.
И предложиша ему единому, и оным особно, и Египтяном, иже с ним ядяху, особно: не можаху бо Египтяне ясти хлеба со Евреи: мерзость бо есть Египтяном (всяк пастух овчий).
33 And they sat before him, the first-born according to his prior birth, and the youngest according to his youth; and the men marveled one at the other.
Седоша же прямо ему первенец по старейшинству своему и менший по меншеству своему, и дивляхуся мужие кийждо ко брату своему:
34 And he sent portions unto them from before him; but Benjamin's portion exceeded the portions of all of them fivefold. And they drank, and were merry with him.
и взяша части от него к себе: вящшая же бысть часть Вениаминова паче всех частей пятерицею, неже оных: пиша же и упишася с ним.
