Genesis 42
1 Now Jacob saw that there was grain in Egypt, and Jacob said to his sons, “Why do you look at one another?”
Видев же Иаков, яко купля есть (пшеницы) во Египте, рече сыном своим: почто не радите?
2 He said, “Behold, I have heard that there is grain in Egypt. Go down there, and buy for us from there, so that we may live, and not die.”
Се, слышах, яко есть пшеница во Египте: идите тамо и купите нам мало пищи, да живи будем и не умрем.
3 Joseph’s ten brothers went down to buy grain from Egypt.
Идоша же братия Иосифовы десять купити пшеницы во Египет.
4 But Jacob didn’t send Benjamin, Joseph’s brother, with his brothers; for he said, “Lest perhaps harm happen to him.”
Вениамина же, брата Иосифова, не отпусти с братиею его, рече бо: да не когда случится (на пути) ему зло.
5 The sons of Israel came to buy among those who came, for the famine was in the land of Canaan.
Приидоша же сынове Израилевы купити с приходящими: бяше бо глад в земли Ханаанстей.
6 Joseph was the governor over the land. It was he who sold to all the people of the land. Joseph’s brothers came, and bowed themselves down to him with their faces to the earth.
Иосиф же бяше князь земли: сей продаяше всем людем земли (тоя). Пришедше же братия Иосифовы, поклонишася ему лицем до земли.
7 Joseph saw his brothers, and he recognized them, but acted like a stranger to them, and spoke roughly with them. He said to them, “Where did you come from?” They said, “From the land of Canaan, to buy food.”
Видев же Иосиф братию свою, позна: и отчуждашеся их, и глаголаше им жестоко, и рече им: откуду приидосте? Они же реша: от земли Ханаанския купити пищи.
8 Joseph recognized his brothers, but they didn’t recognize him.
Позна же Иосиф братию свою: они же не познаша его.
9 Joseph remembered the dreams which he dreamed about them, and said to them, “You are spies! You have come to see the nakedness of the land.”
И помяну Иосиф сны своя, яже виде он: и рече им: соглядатаи есте, соглядати путий страны (сея) приидосте.
10 They said to him, “No, my lord, but your servants have come to buy food.
Они же реша: ни, господине, раби твои приидохом купити пищи:
11 We are all one man’s sons; we are honest men. Your servants are not spies.”
вси есмы сынове единаго человека: мирницы есмы, не суть раби твои соглядатаи.
12 He said to them, “No, but you have come to see the nakedness of the land!”
Рече же им: ни, но пути земли (сея) приидосте соглядати.
13 They said, “We, your servants, are twelve brothers, the sons of one man in the land of Canaan; and behold, the youngest is today with our father, and one is no more.”
Они же реша: дванадесять есмы братия раби твои в земли Ханаани: и се, менший (от нас) со отцем нашим днесь, а другаго несть.
14 Joseph said to them, “It is like I told you, saying, ‘You are spies!’
Рече же им Иосиф: сие есть, еже рекох вам, глаголя, яко соглядатаи есте:
15 By this you shall be tested. By the life of Pharaoh, you shall not go out from here, unless your youngest brother comes here.
в сем явитеся: тако ми здравия фараоня, не изыдете отсюду, аще брат ваш менший не приидет семо:
16 Send one of you, and let him get your brother, and you shall be bound, that your words may be tested, whether there is truth in you, or else by the life of Pharaoh surely you are spies.”
послите от себе единаго, и возмите брата вашего: вы же держими будите, дондеже яве будут словеса ваша, аще истинствуете, или ни: аще же ни, тако ми здравия фараоня, воистинну соглядатаи есте.
17 He put them all together into custody for three days.
И даде я под стражу на три дни.
18 Joseph said to them the third day, “Do this, and live, for I fear God.
Рече же им в день третий: сие сотворите, и живи будете: Бога бо аз боюся:
19 If you are honest men, then let one of your brothers be bound in your prison; but you go, carry grain for the famine of your houses.
аще мирницы есте, брат ваш да удержится един под стражею: сами же идите и отвезите купленую пшеницу вашу,
20 Bring your youngest brother to me; so will your words be verified, and you won’t die.” They did so.
и брата вашего меншаго приведите ко мне, и верна будут словеса ваша: аще же ни, умрете. И сотвориша тако.
21 They said to one another, “We are certainly guilty concerning our brother, in that we saw the distress of his soul, when he begged us, and we wouldn’t listen. Therefore this distress has come upon us.”
И рече кийждо к брату своему: ей, во гресех бо есмы брата ради нашего, яко презрехом скорбение души его, егда моляшеся нам, и не послушахом его: и сего ради прииде на ны скорбение сие.
22 Reuben answered them, saying, “Didn’t I tell you, saying, ‘Don’t sin against the child,’ and you wouldn’t listen? Therefore also, behold, his blood is required.”
Отвещав же Рувим, рече им: не рех ли вам, глаголя: не преобидите детища? И не послушасте мене: и се, кровь его взыскуется.
23 They didn’t know that Joseph understood them; for there was an interpreter between them.
Тии же не ведеша, яко разумеет Иосиф: толмачь бо между ими бяше.
24 He turned himself away from them, and wept. Then he returned to them, and spoke to them, and took Simeon from among them, and bound him before their eyes.
Отвратився же от них, проплакася Иосиф: и паки прииде к ним и рече им. И поя Симеона от них, и связа его пред ними.
25 Then Joseph gave a command to fill their bags with grain, and to restore each man’s money into his sack, and to give them food for the way. So it was done to them.
Повеле же Иосиф наполнити сосуды их пшеницы и возвратити сребро их комуждо во вретище свое и дати им брашно на путь. И бысть им тако.
26 They loaded their donkeys with their grain, and departed from there.
И возложивше пшеницу на ослы своя, отидоша оттуду.
27 As one of them opened his sack to give his donkey food in the lodging place, he saw his money. Behold, it was in the mouth of his sack.
Отрешив же един вретище свое дати пищу ослом своим, идеже сташа, и виде узол сребра своего, и бе верху устия вретищнаго.
28 He said to his brothers, “My money is restored! Behold, it is in my sack!” Their hearts failed them, and they turned trembling to one another, saying, “What is this that God has done to us?”
И рече братии своей: возвращено ми есть сребро, и се, сие во вретищи моем. И ужасеся сердце их: и возмятошася, друг ко другу глаголюще: что сие сотвори Бог нам?
29 They came to Jacob their father, to the land of Canaan, and told him all that had happened to them, saying,
Приидоша же ко Иакову, отцу своему, в землю Ханааню и поведаша ему вся случившаяся им, глаголюще:
30 “The man, the lord of the land, spoke roughly with us, and took us for spies of the country.
глагола муж господин земли (оныя) к нам жестоко и вверже нас в темницу, аки соглядаюших землю:
31 We said to him, ‘We are honest men. We are no spies.
рехом же ему: мирницы есмы, несмы соглядатаи:
32 We are twelve brothers, sons of our father; one is no more, and the youngest is today with our father in the land of Canaan.’
дванадесять братия есмы, сынове отца нашего: единаго несть, а менший со отцем нашим днесь в земли Ханаани:
33 The man, the lord of the land, said to us, ‘By this I will know that you are honest men: leave one of your brothers with me, and take grain for the famine of your houses, and go your way.
рече же нам муж господин земли (тоя): по сему увем, яко мирницы есте: брата единаго оставите зде у мене, а купленую пшеницу дому вашему вземше отидите
34 Bring your youngest brother to me. Then I will know that you are not spies, but that you are honest men. So I will deliver your brother to you, and you shall trade in the land.’”
и приведите ко мне брата вашего меншаго: и увем, яко не соглядатаи есте, но яко мирницы есте: и брата вашего отдам вам, и куплю творите в земли.
35 As they emptied their sacks, behold, each man’s bundle of money was in his sack. When they and their father saw their bundles of money, they were afraid.
Бысть же егда испраздняху вретища своя, и бяше узол сребра во вретищи коегождо их: и видеша узлы сребра своего сами и отец их, и убояшася.
36 Jacob, their father, said to them, “You have bereaved me of my children! Joseph is no more, Simeon is no more, and you want to take Benjamin away. All these things are against me.”
Рече же им Иаков отец их: мене безчадна сотвористе: Иосифа несть, Симеона несть, и Вениамина ли поймете? На мя быша сия вся.
37 Reuben spoke to his father, saying, “Kill my two sons, if I don’t bring him to you. Entrust him to my care, and I will bring him to you again.”
Рече же Рувим отцу своему, глаголя: двоих сынов моих убий, аще не приведу его к тебе: даждь его в руце мои, и аз приведу его к тебе.
38 He said, “My son shall not go down with you; for his brother is dead, and he only is left. If harm happens to him along the way in which you go, then you will bring down my gray hairs with sorrow to Sheol.” (Sheol h7585)
Он же рече: не пойдет сын мой с вами, яко брат его умре, и той един оста: и случится ему зло на пути, в оньже аще пойдете, и сведете старость мою с печалию во ад. (Sheol h7585)
