Бытие 45
1 И не можаше Иосиф удержатися всем предстоящым ему, но рече: отослите всех от мене. И не предстояше ни един Иосифу, егда познавашеся братии своей.
Then could Joseph not refrain himself before all those that stood by him; and he cried, Cause every man to go out from me. And there remained no man with him, while Joseph made himself known unto his brothers.
2 И испусти глас с плачем: слышаша же вси Египтяне, и слышано бысть в дому фараонове.
And he raised his voice in weeping; and the Egyptians heard it, and the house of Pharaoh heard it.
3 Рече же Иосиф братии своей: аз есмь Иосиф: еще ли отец мой жив есть? И не могоша братия отвещати ему: смутишася бо.
And Joseph said unto his brothers, I am Joseph; doth my father yet live? And his brothers could not answer him; for they were terrified at his presence.
4 Рече же Иосиф братии своей: приближитеся ко мне. И приближишася. И рече: аз есмь Иосиф, брат ваш, егоже продасте во Египет:
And Joseph said unto his brothers, Come near to me, I pray you; and they came near; and he said, I am Joseph your brother, whom ye sold into Egypt.
5 ныне убо не скорбите, ниже жестоко вам да явится, яко продасте мя семо: на жизнь бо посла мя Бог пред вами:
But now be not grieved, nor be angry with yourselves, that ye sold me hither; for in order to preserve life did God send me before you.
6 сие бо второе лето глад на земли, и еще пять лет оста, в нихже не будет орания, ни жатвы:
For these two years hath the famine been already in the land; and there are yet five years, in which there will be neither ploughing nor harvesting.
7 посла бо мя Бог пред вами оставити вам останок на земли и препитати ваш останок велий:
And God hath thus sent me before you to prepare for you a permanence on the earth, and to save your lives by a great deliverance.
8 ныне убо не вы посласте мя семо, но Бог: и сотвори мя яко отца фараону и господина всему дому его и князя всей земли Египетстей:
So now it was not you that sent me hither, but God; and he hath made me a father to Pharaoh, and a lord for all his house, and a ruler throughout all the land of Egypt.
9 потщавшеся убо, взыдите ко отцу моему и рцыте ему: сия глаголет сын твой Иосиф: сотвори мя Бог господина всей земли Египетстей: сниди убо ко мне и не умедли:
Haste ye, and go up to my father, and say unto him, Thus hath said thy son Joseph, God hath made me lord of all Egypt; come down unto me, tarry not.
10 и вселишися в земли Гесемли аравийстей, и будеши близ мене ты и сынове твои, и сынове сынов твоих, овцы твоя и волове твои, и елика суть твоя:
And thou shalt dwell in the land of Goshen, and thou shalt be near unto me, thou, and thy children, and thy children's children, and thy flocks, and thy herds, and all that is thine.
11 и препитаю тя тамо, еще бо пять лет будет глад на земли, да не погибнеши ты и сынове твои, и вся имения твоя.
And I will maintain thee there; for there are yet five years of famine; lest thou, and thy household, and all that thou hast, come to poverty.
12 Се, очи ваши видят, и очи Вениамина брата моего, яко уста моя глаголющая к вам:
And, behold, your own eyes see, and the eyes of my brother Benjamin, that it is my mouth that speaketh unto you.
13 возвестите убо отцу моему всю славу мою сущую во Египте, и елика видите: и ускоривше, приведите отца моего семо.
And ye shall tell my father of all my honor in Egypt, and of all that ye have seen; and ye shall hasten and bring down my father hither.
14 И напад на выю Вениамина, брата своего, плакася над ним, и Вениамин плакася на выи его.
And he fell upon his brother Benjamin's neck, and wept; and Benjamin wept upon his neck.
15 И облобызав всю братию свою, плакася над ними: и по сих глаголаша к нему братия его.
And he kissed all his brothers, and wept upon them; and after that his brothers spoke with him.
16 И пронесеся глас в дому фараонове, глаголюще: приидоша братия Иосифова. Возрадовася же фараон и раби его.
And the report thereof was heard in Pharaoh's house, saying, Joseph's brothers are come; and it was pleasing in the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of his servants.
17 Рече же фараон ко Иосифу: рцы братии своей: сие сотворите: наполните сосуды вашя (пшеницы) и идите в землю Ханааню,
And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, Say unto thy brothers, This do ye; load your beasts, and go, get you unto the land of Canaan;
18 и вземше отца вашего и имения ваша, приидите ко мне: и дам вам от всех благ Египетских, и снесте тук земли:
And take your father and your households, and come unto me; and I will give you the best of the land of Egypt, and ye shall eat the fat of the land.
19 ты же заповеждь сия: взяти им колесницы от земли Египетския, детем их и женам их: и поимше отца своего, приидите:
And thou art commanded, This do ye, take unto yourselves out of the land of Egypt wagons for your little ones, and for your wives, and take up your father, and come.
20 и не пощадите очима сосудов ваших: вся бо благая Египетская вам будут.
And do ye feel no concern on account of your household goods; for the best of all the land of Egypt is yours.
21 Сотвориша же тако сынове Израилевы: даде же им Иосиф колесницы по повелению фараона царя (Египетска), и даде им брашно на путь:
And the children of Israel did so; and Joseph gave them wagons, according to the command of Pharaoh; and he gave them provision for the way.
22 и всем даде сугубы ризы, Вениамину же даде триста златниц и пятеры ризы пременныя:
To all of them he gave to each changes of raiment; but to Benjamin he gave three hundred pieces of silver, and five changes of raiment.
23 и отцу своему посла такожде, и десять ослов везущих от всех благ Египетских, и десять мсков везущих хлебы на путь отцу его.
And to his father he sent after this manner: ten asses laden with the best things of Egypt, and ten she-asses laden with corn and bread and other food for his father, for the journey.
24 И отпусти братию свою. И отидоша. И рече им: не гневайтеся на пути.
And he accompanied his brothers on the way, and they departed: and he said unto them, Do not fall out by the way.
25 Изыдоша же из Египта и приидоша в землю Ханааню ко Иакову отцу своему
And they went out of Egypt, and came into the land of Canaan, unto Jacob their father.
26 и поведаша ему глаголюще: яко сын твой Иосиф жив есть, и он владеет над всею землею Египетскою. И ужасеся в мысли Иаков: не вероваше бо им.
And they told him, saying, Joseph is yet alive; and that he is governor over all the land of Egypt. But his heart remained cold, for he believed them not.
27 Глаголаша же ему вся реченная от Иосифа, елика рече им. Узрев же колесницы, яже посла Иосиф, еже взяти его, оживе дух Иакова, отца их,
But when they told him all the words of Joseph, which he had said unto them; and when he saw the wagons which Joseph had sent to carry him: the spirit of Jacob their father revived.
28 и рече Израиль: велико ми есть (сие), аще еще Иосиф сын мой жив есть: шед узрю его, прежде неже умрети ми.
And Israel said, Enough; Joseph my son is yet alive: I will go and see him before I die.
