And he commandedH6680 the steward of his houseH1004, sayingH559, FillH4390 the men'sH582 sacksH572 with foodH400, as much asH834 they canH3201 carryH5375, and putH7760 every man'sH376 moneyH3701 in his sack'sH572 mouthH6310. {the steward…: Heb. him that was over his house}
And putH7760 my cupH1375, the silverH3701 cupH1375, in the sack'sH572 mouthH6310 of the youngestH6996, and his cornH7668 moneyH3701. And he didH6213 according to the wordH1697 that JosephH3130 had spokenH1696.
As soon as the morningH1242 was lightH215, the menH582 were sent awayH7971, they and their assesH2543.
And when they were gone outH3318 of the cityH5892, and not yet far offH7368, JosephH3130 saidH559 unto his stewardH1004, UpH6965, followH7291 afterH310 the menH582; and when thou dost overtakeH5381 them, sayH559 unto them, Wherefore have ye rewardedH7999 evilH7451 for goodH2896?
Is not this it in which my lordH113 drinkethH8354, and whereby indeedH5172 he divinethH5172? ye have done evilH7489 in so doingH6213. {divineth: or, maketh trial?}
And he overtookH5381 them, and he spakeH1696 unto them these sameH428 wordsH1697.
And they saidH559 unto him, Wherefore saithH1696 my lordH113 these wordsH1697? God forbidH2486 that thy servantsH5650 should doH6213 according to this thingH1697:
Behold, the moneyH3701, which we foundH4672 in our sacks'H572 mouthsH6310, we brought againH7725 unto thee out of the landH776 of CanaanH3667: how then should we stealH1589 out of thy lord'sH113 houseH1004 silverH3701 or goldH2091?
With whomsoever of thy servantsH5650 it be foundH4672, both let him dieH4191, and we also will be my lord'sH113 bondmenH5650.
And he saidH559, Now also let it be according unto your wordsH1697+H3651: he with whom it is foundH4672 shall be my servantH5650; and ye shall be blamelessH5355.
Then they speedilyH4116 took downH3381 every manH376 his sackH572 to the groundH776, and openedH6605 every manH376 his sackH572.
And he searchedH2664, and beganH2490 at the eldestH1419, and leftH3615 at the youngestH6996: and the cupH1375 was foundH4672 in Benjamin'sH1144 sackH572.
Then they rentH7167 their clothesH8071, and ladedH6006 every manH376 his assH2543, and returnedH7725 to the cityH5892.
And JudahH3063 and his brethrenH251 cameH935 to Joseph'sH3130 houseH1004; for he was yet there: and they fellH5307 before himH6440 on the groundH776.
And JosephH3130 saidH559 unto them, What deedH4639 is this that ye have doneH6213? wot yeH3045 not that such a manH376 as I can certainlyH5172 divineH5172? {divine: or, make trial?}
And JudahH3063 saidH559, What shall we sayH559 unto my lordH113? what shall we speakH1696? or how shall we clear ourselvesH6663? GodH430 hath found outH4672 the iniquityH5771 of thy servantsH5650: behold, we are my lord'sH113 servantsH5650, both we, and he alsoH1571 with whomH834+H3027 the cupH1375 is foundH4672.
And he saidH559, God forbidH2486 that I should doH6213 soH2063: but the manH376 in whose handH3027 the cupH1375 is foundH4672, he shall be my servantH5650; and as for you, get you upH5927 in peaceH7965 unto your fatherH1.
Then JudahH3063 came nearH5066 unto him, and saidH559, OhH994 my lordH113, let thy servantH5650, I pray thee, speakH1696 a wordH1697 in my lord'sH113 earsH241, and let not thine angerH639 burnH2734 against thy servantH5650: for thou art even as PharaohH6547.
My lordH113 askedH7592 his servantsH5650, sayingH559, HaveH3426 ye a fatherH1, or a brotherH251?
And we saidH559 unto my lordH113, We haveH3426 a fatherH1, an old manH2205, and a childH3206 of his old ageH2208, a little oneH6996; and his brotherH251 is deadH4191, and he alone is leftH3498 of his motherH517, and his fatherH1 lovethH157 him.
And thou saidstH559 unto thy servantsH5650, Bring him downH3381 unto me, that I may setH7760 mine eyesH5869 upon him.
And we saidH559 unto my lordH113, The ladH5288 cannotH3201 leaveH5800 his fatherH1: for if he should leaveH5800 his fatherH1, his father would dieH4191.
And thou saidstH559 unto thy servantsH5650, ExceptH3808 your youngestH6996 brotherH251 come downH3381 with you, ye shall seeH7200+H3254 my faceH6440 no moreH7200+H3254.
And it came to pass when we came upH5927 unto thy servantH5650 my fatherH1, we toldH5046 him the wordsH1697 of my lordH113.
And our fatherH1 saidH559, Go againH7725, and buyH7666 us a littleH4592 foodH400.
And we saidH559, We cannotH3201 go downH3381: if our youngestH6996 brotherH251 beH3426 with us, then will we go downH3381: for we mayH3201 not seeH7200 the man'sH376 faceH6440, exceptH369 our youngestH6996 brotherH251 be with us.
And thy servantH5650 my fatherH1 saidH559 unto us, Ye knowH3045 that my wifeH802 bareH3205 me twoH8147 sons:
And the oneH259 went outH3318 from me, and I saidH559, SurelyH2963 he is torn in piecesH2963; and I saw himH7200 not sinceH2008:
And if ye takeH3947 this also fromH5973 meH6440, and mischiefH611 befall himH7136, ye shall bring downH3381 my gray hairsH7872 with sorrowH7451 to the graveH7585.
Now therefore when I comeH935 to thy servantH5650 my fatherH1, and the ladH5288 be not with us; seeing that his lifeH5315 is bound upH7194 in the lad's lifeH5315;
It shall come to pass, when he seethH7200 that the ladH5288 is not with us, that he will dieH4191: and thy servantsH5650 shall bring downH3381 the gray hairsH7872 of thy servantH5650 our fatherH1 with sorrowH3015 to the graveH7585.
For thy servantH5650 became suretyH6148 for the ladH5288 untoH5973 my fatherH1, sayingH559, If I bringH935 him not unto thee, then I shall bear the blameH2398 to my fatherH1 for everH3117.
Now therefore, I pray thee, let thy servantH5650 abideH3427 instead of the ladH5288 a bondmanH5650 to my lordH113; and let the ladH5288 go upH5927 with his brethrenH251.
For howH349 shall I go upH5927 to my fatherH1, and the ladH5288 be not with me? lest peradventure I seeH7200 the evilH7451 that shall come onH4672 my fatherH1. {come…: Heb. find my father}

And he saidH559 unto him, OhH4994 let not the LordH136 be angryH2734, and I will speakH1696: Peradventure there shall thirtyH7970 be foundH4672 there. And he saidH559, I will not doH6213 it, if I findH4672 thirtyH7970 there.

Thou shalt beH1961 over my houseH1004, and according unto thy wordH6310 shall all my peopleH5971 be ruledH5401: only in the throneH3678 will I be greaterH1431 than thou. {be ruled: Heb. be armed, or, kiss}

But the queenH4436 VashtiH2060 refusedH3985 to comeH935 at the king'sH4428 commandmentH1697 byH3027 his chamberlainsH5631: therefore was the kingH4428 veryH3966 wrothH7107, and his angerH2534 burnedH1197 in him. {by his…: Heb. which was by the hand of his eunuchs}

How long, LORDH3068? wilt thou be angryH599 for everH5331? shall thy jealousyH7068 burnH1197 like fireH784?
The king'sH4428 wrathH2197 is as the roaringH5099 of a lionH3715; but his favourH7522 is as dewH2919 upon the grassH6212.

ThenH116 was NebuchadnezzarH5020 fullH4391 of furyH2528, and the formH6755 of his visageH600 was changedH8133 againstH5922 ShadrachH7715, MeshachH4336, and AbednegoH5665: therefore he spakeH6032, and commandedH560 that they should heatH228 the furnaceH861 oneH2298 seven timesH7655 moreH5922 thanH1768 it was wontH2370 to be heatedH228. {full: Cald. filled}
And he commandedH560 the mostH2429 mightyH1401 menH1400 that were in his armyH2429 to bindH3729 ShadrachH7715, MeshachH4336, and AbednegoH5665, and to castH7412 them into the burningH3345 fieryH5135 furnaceH861. {most…: Cald. mighty of strength}
ThenH116 theseH479 menH1400 were boundH3729 in their coatsH5622, their hosenH6361+H6361, and their hatsH3737, and their other garmentsH3831, and were castH7412 into the midstH1459 of the burningH3345 fieryH5135 furnaceH861. {coats: or, mantles} {hats: or, turbans}
ThereforeH3606+H6903 becauseH4481+H1836 the king'sH4430 commandmentH4406 was urgentH2685, and the furnaceH861 exceedingH3493 hotH228, the flameH7631 of the fireH5135 slewH6992 thoseH479 menH1400+H1994 that took upH5267 ShadrachH7715, MeshachH4336, and AbednegoH5665. {commandment: Cald. word} {flame: or, spark}
