Genesis 45
1 And not he was able Joseph to restrain himself to all those standing with him and he called out send out every man from with me and not he stood anyone with him when made himself known Joseph to brothers his.
若瑟在眾侍從前不能再抑制自己，就喊說：「叫眾人離開我出去! 」這樣，若瑟使兄弟認出自己來時，沒有別人在場。
2 And he gave voice his in weeping and they heard Egypt and it heard [the] household of Pharaoh.
他便放聲大哭，埃及人都聽到了，法郎朝廷也聽到了。
3 And he said Joseph to brothers his I [am] Joseph ¿ still [is] father my living and not they were able brothers his to answer him for they were terrified of him.
若瑟對兄弟們說：「我就是若瑟，我父親還在嗎﹖」他的兄弟們不能回答，因為在他面前都嚇呆了。
4 And he said Joseph to brothers his draw near please to me and they drew near and he said I [am] Joseph brother your whom you sold me Egypt towards.
若瑟又對兄弟們說：「請你們近前來。」他們就上前去。若瑟說：「我就是你們賣到埃及的弟弟若瑟。
5 And now - may not you be grieved and may not it burn in view your that you sold me hither for for preservation of life he sent me God before you.
現在你們不要因為將我賣到這裏便自憂自責；這原是天主派遣我在你們以先來，為保全你們的性命。
6 For this two years the famine [has been] in [the] midst of the land and still five years when there not [will be] plowing and harvest.
地方上的饑荒纔過了第二年，還有五年，不能耕種，不能收割。
7 And he sent me God before you to make for you a remnant on the earth and to preserve alive for you a deliverance great.
天主派遣我在你們以先來，是為給你們在地上留下後裔，給你們保全多人的性命。
8 And therefore not you you sent me hither for God and he has appointed me to a father of Pharaoh and to lord of all household his and ruler over all [the] land of Egypt.
所以叫我到這裏來的並不是你們，而是天主；是他立我作法郎之父，作他全家的主人，作全埃及地的總理。
9 Hurry and go up to father my and you will say to him thus he says son your Joseph he has appointed me God to lord of all Egypt come down! to me may not you delay.
你們急速上到我父親那裏，對他說：你的兒子若瑟這樣說：天主立我作了全埃及的主人，請你下到我這裏來，不要遲延。
10 And you will dwell in [the] land of Goshen and you will be near to me you and children your and [the] children of children your and sheep your and cattle your and all that [belongs] to you.
你和你的兒孫，以及你的羊群牲畜，並你一切所有，都可住在哥笙地，離我不遠，
11 And I will provide for you there for still [will be] five years famine lest you should become impoverished you and household your and all that [belongs] to you.
我好在那裏奉養你，免得你和你的眷屬，並你一切所有陷於貧乏，因為尚有五年饑荒。
12 And there! eyes your [are] seeing and [the] eyes of brother my Benjamin that mouth my [is] the [one which] speaks to you.
看你們和我的弟弟本雅明都親眼見到，是我親口在對你們說話。
13 And you will tell to father my all honor my in Egypt and all that you saw and you will hurry and you will bring down father my hither.
你們要將我在埃及的一切光榮，和你們親見的一切，都告訴我父親，儘速將我父親下到這裏來。」
14 And he fell on [the] neck of Benjamin brother his and he wept and Benjamin he wept on neck his.
說畢，便撲在他弟弟本雅明的頸上哭起來了，本雅明也伏在他頸上哭泣。
15 And he kissed all brothers his and he wept over them and after thus they spoke brothers his with him.
然後與眾兄弟親吻，抱著他們痛哭。這以後，他的兄弟們纔敢與他交談。
16 And the sound it was heard [the] house of Pharaoh saying they have come [the] brothers of Joseph and it was good in [the] eyes of Pharaoh and in [the] eyes of servants his.
法郎朝廷聽說若瑟兄弟來了的消息，法郎和他的臣僕都很高興。
17 And he said Pharaoh to Joseph say to brothers your this do load animal[s] your and go go [the] land of towards Canaan.
法郎便對若瑟說：「你對你的兄弟們說：你們應這樣做：備好牲口，立即往客納罕地去，
18 And fetch father your and households your and come to me so let me give to you [the] good thing[s] of [the] land of Egypt and eat [the] fat of the land.
接你們的父親和家眷到我這裏來，我願賜給你們埃及地最好的出產，使你們享受本地的肥物。
19 And you you are commanded this do take for yourselves from [the] land of Egypt carts for little one[s] your and for wives your and you will carry father your and you will come.
你再吩咐他們說：你們應這樣做：從埃及帶些車輛去接你們的子女和妻子，並把你們的父親接來；
20 And eye your may not it look with regret on things your for [the] good thing[s] of all [the] land of Egypt [will belong] to you it.
不要顧惜你們的物品，因為全埃及地最好的出品都歸你們享用。」
21 And they did thus [the] sons of Israel and he gave to them Joseph carts on [the] mouth of Pharaoh and he gave to them provision[s] for the journey.
以色列的兒子們就這樣做了。若瑟依照法郎的吩咐，給了他們一些車輛和路上用的食糧；
22 To all of them he gave to each changes of clothes and to Benjamin he gave three of hundred silver and five changes of clothes.
又給了每人一套新衣，至於本雅明，卻給了他三百銀錢和五套新衣；
23 And to father his he sent according to this ten donkeys carrying some of [the] good thing[s] of Egypt and ten female donkeys carrying grain and food and food for father his for the journey.
同樣，給他父親送去十匹公驢，滿載埃及最好的出品，十匹母驢，滿載糧食麵餅，和為父親路上用的食品。
24 And he sent off brothers his and they went and he said to them may not you stir up on the way.
隨後打發他的兄弟們走了；當他們離別時，對他們說：「路上不要爭吵! 」
25 And they went up from Egypt and they came [the] land of Canaan to Jacob father their.
若瑟的兄弟們由埃及上到客納罕，他們父親雅各伯那裏，
26 And they told to him saying still Joseph [is] alive and that he [is] ruling over all [the] land of Egypt and it grew numb heart his for not he believed them.
告訴他說：「若瑟還活著，而且做了全埃及國的總理。」雅各伯聽了心中淡然，並不相信。
27 And they spoke to him all [the] words of Joseph which he had spoken to them and he saw the carts which he had sent Joseph to carry him and it lived [the] spirit of Jacob father their.
及至他們將若瑟對他們所說的話，全講給他聽，他又看了若瑟打發來接他的車輛，他們的父親雅各伯的心神才甦醒過來。
28 And he said Israel enough still Joseph son my [is] alive I will go so I may see him before I will die.
以色列於是說：「只要我兒若瑟還在，我就心滿意足了；在我未死以前，我該去見他一面。」
