Genesis 42:29 37 Genesis 43:23
it that God dealeth thus with us? 42:29 And they
came unto Jacob their father unto the land of
Canaan, and told him all that had happened
them saying: 42:30 The lord of the land spake
roughly to us, and took us for spies to search
the country. 42:31 And we said unto him: we
mean truly and are no spies. 42:32 We be twelve
brethren sons of our father, one is away, and the
youngest is now with our father in the land of
Canaan. 42:33 And the lord of the country said
unto us: hereby shall I know if ye mean truly:
leave one of your brethren here with me, and
take food necessary for your households and
get you away, 42:34 and bring your youngest
brother unto me; And thereby shall I know that
ye are no spies, but mean truly: So will I deliver
you your brother again, and ye shall occupy in
the land. 42:35 And as they emptied their sacks,
behold: every man’s bundle of money was in
his sack. And when both they and their father
saw the bundles of money, they were afraid.
42:36 And Jacob their father said unto them: Me
have ye robbed of my children: Joseph is away,
and Simeon is away, and ye will take Ben Jamin
away. All these things fall upon me. 42:37 Ruben
answered his father saying: Slay my two sons,
if I bring him not to thee again. Deliver him
therefore to my hand, and I will bring him to
thee again: 42:38 And he said: my son shall not
go down with you. For his brother is dead,
and he is left alone. Moreover some misfortune
might happen upon him by the way which ye
go. And so should ye bring my gray head
with sorrow unto the grave. 43:1 And the dearth
waxed sore in the land. 43:2 And when they had
eaten up that corn which they brought out of
the land of Egypt, their father said unto them:
43:3
go again and buy us a little food. Then
said Juda unto him: the man did testify unto
us saying: look that ye see not my face except
your brother be with you. 43:4 Therefore if thou
wilt send our brother with us, we will go and
buy the food. 43:5 But if thou wilt not send him,
we will not go: for the man said unto us: look
that ye see not my face, except your brother
43:6
be with you. And Israel said: wherefore
dealt ye so cruelly with me, as to tell the man
that ye had yet another brother? 43:7 And they
said: The man asked us of our kindred saying:
is your father yet alive? have ye not another
brother? And we told him according to these
words. How could we know that he would bid
us bring our brother down with us? 43:8 Then
said Juda unto Israel his father: Send the lad
with me, and we will rise and go, that we may
live and not die: both we, thou and also our
children. 43:9 I will be surety for him, and of
my hands require him. If I bring him not to
thee and set him before thine eyes, then let
me bear the blame for ever.
43:10
For except
we had made this tarrying: by this we had
been there twice and come again.
43:11
Then
their father Israel said unto them: if it must
needs be so now: then do thus, take of the
best fruits of the land in your vessels, and
bring the man a present, a courtesy balm, and
a courtesy of honey, spices and myrrh, dates
and almonds. 43:12 And take as much money
more with you. And the money that was
brought again in your sacks, take it again with
you in your hands, peradventure it was some
oversight. 43:13 Take also your brother with you,
and arise and go again to the man. 43:14 And
God almighty give you mercy in the sight of
the man and send you your other brother and
also Ben Jamin, and I will be as a man robbed
of his children. 43:15 Thus took they the present
and twice so much more money with them,
and Ben Jamin. And rose up, went down
to Egypt, and presented themself to Joseph.
43:16 When Joseph saw Ben Jamin with them,
he said to the ruler of his house: bring these
men home, and slay and make ready: for they
shall dine with me at noon. 43:17 And the man
did as Joseph bade, and brought them in to
Joseph’s house. 43:18 When they were brought
to Joseph’s house, they were afraid, and said:
because of the money that came in our sacks’
mouths at the first time, are we brought, to
pick a quarrel with us and to lay some thing
to our charge: to bring us in bondage and
our asses also. 43:19 Therefore came they to the
man that was the ruler over Joseph’s house,
and communed with him at the door 43:20 and
said: Sir, we came hither at the first time to
buy food, 43:21 and as we came to an inn and
opened our sacks: behold, every man’s money
was in his sack with full weight: But we have
brought it again with us, 43:22 and other money
have we brought also in our hands, to buy food,
but we can not tell who put our money in our
sacks. 43:23 And he said: be of good cheer, fear
not: Your God and the God of your fathers
hath put you that treasure in your sacks, for
