King James Version 1611 with Strong's numbers
Versliste
And JacobH3290 dweltH3427 in the landH776 wherein his fatherH1 was a strangerH4033, in the landH776 of CanaanH3667. {wherein…: Heb. of his father's sojournings}
These are the generationsH8435 of JacobH3290. JosephH3130, being seventeenH6240+H7651 yearsH8141 oldH1121, was feedingH7462 the flockH6629 with his brethrenH251; and the ladH5288 was with the sonsH1121 of BilhahH1090, and with the sonsH1121 of ZilpahH2153, his father'sH1 wivesH802: and JosephH3130 broughtH935 unto his fatherH1 their evilH7451 reportH1681.
Now IsraelH3478 lovedH157 JosephH3130 more than all his childrenH1121, because he was the sonH1121 of his old ageH2208: and he madeH6213 him a coatH3801 of many coloursH6446. {colours: or, pieces}
And when his brethrenH251 sawH7200 that their fatherH1 lovedH157 him more than all his brethrenH251, they hatedH8130 him, and couldH3201 not speakH1696 peaceablyH7965 unto him.
And JosephH3130 dreamedH2492 a dreamH2472, and he toldH5046 it his brethrenH251: and they hatedH8130 him yet the moreH3254.
And he saidH559 unto them, HearH8085, I pray you, this dreamH2472 which I have dreamedH2492:
For, behold, we were bindingH481+H8432 sheavesH485 in the fieldH7704, and, lo, my sheafH485 aroseH6965, and also stood uprightH5324; and, behold, your sheavesH485 stood round aboutH5437, and made obeisanceH7812 to my sheafH485.
And his brethrenH251 saidH559 to him, Shalt thou indeedH4427 reignH4427 over us? or shalt thou indeedH4910 have dominionH4910 over us? And they hatedH8130 him yet the moreH3254 for his dreamsH2472, and for his wordsH1697.
And he dreamedH2492 yet anotherH312 dreamH2472, and toldH5608 it his brethrenH251, and saidH559, Behold, I have dreamedH2492 a dreamH2472 more; and, behold, the sunH8121 and the moonH3394 and the elevenH6240+H259 starsH3556 made obeisanceH7812 to me.
And he toldH5608 it to his fatherH1, and to his brethrenH251: and his fatherH1 rebukedH1605 him, and saidH559 unto him, What is this dreamH2472 that thou hast dreamedH2492? Shall I and thy motherH517 and thy brethrenH251 indeedH935 comeH935 to bow downH7812 ourselves to thee to the earthH776?
And his brethrenH251 enviedH7065 him; but his fatherH1 observedH8104 the sayingH1697.
And his brethrenH251 wentH3212 to feedH7462 their father'sH1 flockH6629 in ShechemH7927.
And IsraelH3478 saidH559 unto JosephH3130, Do not thy brethrenH251 feedH7462 the flock in ShechemH7927? comeH3212, and I will send theeH7971 unto them. And he saidH559 to him, Here am I.
And he saidH559 to him, GoH3212, I pray thee, seeH7200 whether it be wellH7965 with thy brethrenH251, and wellH7965 with the flocksH6629; and bringH7725 me wordH1697 againH7725. So he sentH7971 him out of the valeH6010 of HebronH2275, and he cameH935 to ShechemH7927. {see…: Heb. see the peace of thy brethren, etc.}
And a certain manH376 found himH4672, and, behold, he was wanderingH8582 in the fieldH7704: and the manH376 asked himH7592, sayingH559, What seekestH1245 thou?
And he saidH559, I seekH1245 my brethrenH251: tellH5046 me, I pray thee, whereH375 they feedH7462 their flocks.
And the manH376 saidH559, They are departedH5265 henceH2088; for I heardH8085 them sayH559, Let us goH3212 to DothanH1886. And JosephH3130 wentH3212 afterH310 his brethrenH251, and foundH4672 them in DothanH1886.
And when they sawH7200 him afar offH7350, even before he came nearH7126 unto them, they conspiredH5230 against him to slayH4191 him.
And they saidH559 oneH376 to anotherH251, Behold, thisH1976 dreamerH1167+H2472 comethH935. {dreamer: Heb. master of dreams}
ComeH3212 now therefore, and let us slayH2026 him, and castH7993 him into someH259 pitH953, and we will sayH559, Some evilH7451 beastH2416 hath devouredH398 him: and we shall seeH7200 what will become of his dreamsH2472.
And ReubenH7205 heardH8085 it, and he deliveredH5337 him out of their handsH3027; and saidH559, Let us not killH5221+H5315 him.
And ReubenH7205 saidH559 unto them, ShedH8210 no bloodH1818, but castH7993 him into this pitH953 that is in the wildernessH4057, and layH7971 no handH3027 upon him; that he might ridH5337 him out of their handsH3027, to deliverH7725 him to his fatherH1 againH7725.
And it came to pass, when JosephH3130 was comeH935 unto his brethrenH251, that they striptH6584+H853 JosephH3130 out ofH854 his coatH3801, his coatH3801 of many coloursH6446 that was on him; {colours: or, pieces}
And they tookH3947 him, and castH7993 him into a pitH953: and the pitH953 was emptyH7386, there was no waterH4325 in it.
And they sat downH3427 to eatH398 breadH3899: and they lifted upH5375 their eyesH5869 and lookedH7200, and, behold, a companyH736 of IshmeelitesH3459 cameH935 from GileadH1568 with their camelsH1581 bearingH5375 spiceryH5219 and balmH6875 and myrrhH3910, goingH1980 to carry it downH3381 to EgyptH4714.
And JudahH3063 saidH559 unto his brethrenH251, What profitH1215 is it if we slayH2026 our brotherH251, and concealH3680 his bloodH1818?
ComeH3212, and let us sellH4376 him to the IshmeelitesH3459, and let not our handH3027 be upon him; for he is our brotherH251 and our fleshH1320. And his brethrenH251 were contentH8085. {were…: Heb. hearkened}
Then there passedH5674 by MidianitesH4084 merchantmenH582+H5503; and they drewH4900 and lifted upH5927 JosephH3130 out of the pitH953, and soldH4376 JosephH3130 to the IshmeelitesH3459 for twentyH6242 pieces of silverH3701: and they broughtH935 JosephH3130 into EgyptH4714.
And ReubenH7205 returnedH7725 unto the pitH953; and, behold, JosephH3130 was not in the pitH953; and he rentH7167 his clothesH899.
And he returnedH7725 unto his brethrenH251, and saidH559, The childH3206 is not; and I, whitherH575 shall I goH935?
And they tookH3947 Joseph'sH3130 coatH3801, and killedH7819 a kidH8163 of the goatsH5795, and dippedH2881 the coatH3801 in the bloodH1818;
And they sentH7971 the coatH3801 of many coloursH6446, and they broughtH935 it to their fatherH1; and saidH559, This have we foundH4672: knowH5234 now whether it be thy son'sH1121 coatH3801 or no.
And he knew itH5234, and saidH559, It is my son'sH1121 coatH3801; an evilH7451 beastH2416 hath devouredH398 him; JosephH3130 is without doubtH2963 rent in piecesH2963.
And JacobH3290 rentH7167 his clothesH8071, and putH7760 sackclothH8242 upon his loinsH4975, and mournedH56 for his sonH1121 manyH7227 daysH3117.
And all his sonsH1121 and all his daughtersH1323 rose upH6965 to comfortH5162 him; but he refusedH3985 to be comfortedH5162; and he saidH559, For I will go downH3381 into the graveH7585 unto my sonH1121 mourningH57. Thus his fatherH1 weptH1058 for him.
And the MidianitesH4092 soldH4376 him into EgyptH4714 unto PotipharH6318, an officerH5631 of Pharaoh'sH6547, and captainH8269 of the guardH2876. {officer: Heb. eunuch: but the word doth signify not only eunuchs, but also chamberlains, courtiers, and officers} {captain…: or, chief marshal: Heb. chief of the slaughter men, or executioners}
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}
And he made him to rideH7392 in the secondH4932 chariotH4818 which he had; and they criedH7121 before himH6440, Bow the kneeH86: and he madeH5414 him ruler over all the landH776 of EgyptH4714. {Bow…: or, Tender father: Heb. Abrech}
Now when JacobH3290 sawH7200 that there wasH3426 cornH7668 in EgyptH4714, JacobH3290 saidH559 unto his sonsH1121, Why do ye lookH7200 one upon another?
And he saidH559, Behold, I have heardH8085 that there isH3426 cornH7668 in EgyptH4714: get you downH3381 thither, and buyH7666 for us from thence; that we may liveH2421, and not dieH4191.
And Joseph'sH3130 tenH6235 brethrenH251 went downH3381 to buyH7666 cornH1250 in EgyptH4714.
And JosephH3130 was the governorH7989 over the landH776, and he it was that soldH7666 to all the peopleH5971 of the landH776: and Joseph'sH3130 brethrenH251 cameH935, and bowed downH7812 themselves before him with their facesH639 to the earthH776.
And JosephH3130 sawH7200 his brethrenH251, and he knewH5234 them, but made himself strangeH5234 unto them, and spakeH1696 roughlyH7186 unto them; and he saidH559 unto them, WhenceH370 comeH935 ye? And they saidH559, From the landH776 of CanaanH3667 to buyH7666 foodH400. {roughly…: Heb. hard things with them}
And JosephH3130 knewH5234 his brethrenH251, but they knewH5234 not him.
And JosephH3130 rememberedH2142 the dreamsH2472 which he dreamedH2492 of them, and saidH559 unto them, Ye are spiesH7270; to seeH7200 the nakednessH6172 of the landH776 ye are comeH935.
And they saidH559 unto him, Nay, my lordH113, but to buyH7666 foodH400 are thy servantsH5650 comeH935.
WeH5168 are all oneH259 man'sH376 sonsH1121; we are trueH3651 men, thy servantsH5650 are no spiesH7270.
And he saidH559 unto them, Nay, but to seeH7200 the nakednessH6172 of the landH776 ye are comeH935.
And they saidH559, Thy servantsH5650 are twelveH8147+H6240 brethrenH251, the sonsH1121 of oneH259 manH376 in the landH776 of CanaanH3667; and, behold, the youngestH6996 is this dayH3117 with our fatherH1, and oneH259 is not.
And JosephH3130 saidH559 unto them, That is it that I spakeH1696 unto you, sayingH559, Ye are spiesH7270:
HerebyH2063 ye shall be provedH974: By the lifeH2416 of PharaohH6547 ye shall not go forthH3318 hence, except your youngestH6996 brotherH251 comeH935 hither.
SendH7971 oneH259 of you, and let him fetchH3947 your brotherH251, and ye shall be kept in prisonH631, that your wordsH1697 may be provedH974, whether there be any truthH571 inH854 you: or elseH3808 by the lifeH2416 of PharaohH6547 surely ye are spiesH7270. {kept…: Heb. bound}
And he put them all togetherH622 into wardH4929 threeH7969 daysH3117. {put: Heb. gathered}
And they saidH559 oneH376 to anotherH251, We are verilyH61 guiltyH818 concerning our brotherH251, in thatH834 we sawH7200 the anguishH6869 of his soulH5315, when he besoughtH2603 us, and we would not hearH8085; therefore is this distressH6869 comeH935 upon us.
Then JosephH3130 commandedH6680 to fillH4390 their sacksH3627 with cornH1250, and to restoreH7725 every man'sH376 moneyH3701 into his sackH8242, and to giveH5414 them provisionH6720 for the wayH1870: and thusH3651 did heH6213 unto them.
And their fatherH1 IsraelH3478 saidH559 unto them, If it must be so nowH645, doH6213 this; takeH3947 of the best fruitsH2173 in the landH776 in your vesselsH3627, and carry downH3381 the manH376 a presentH4503, a littleH4592 balmH6875, and a littleH4592 honeyH1706, spicesH5219, and myrrhH3910, nutsH992, and almondsH8247:
And takeH3947 doubleH4932 moneyH3701 in your handH3027; and the moneyH3701 that was brought againH7725 in the mouthH6310 of your sacksH572, carry it againH7725 in your handH3027; peradventure it was an oversightH4870:
TakeH3947 also your brotherH251, and ariseH6965, go againH7725 unto the manH376:
And GodH410 AlmightyH7706 giveH5414 you mercyH7356 beforeH6440 the manH376, that he may send awayH7971 your otherH312 brotherH251, and BenjaminH1144. IfH834 I be bereavedH7921 of my children, I am bereavedH7921. {If…: or, And I, as I have been, etc.}
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 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.
A Psalm of DavidH1732, MaschilH4905. BlessedH835 is he whose transgressionH6588 is forgivenH5375, whose sinH2401 is coveredH3680. {A Psalm…: or, A Psalm of David giving instruction}
BlessedH835 is the manH120 unto whom the LORDH3068 imputethH2803 not iniquityH5771, and in whose spiritH7307 there is no guileH7423.
When I kept silenceH2790, my bonesH6106 waxed oldH1086 through my roaringH7581 all the dayH3117 long.
For dayH3119 and nightH3915 thy handH3027 was heavyH3513 upon me: my moistureH3955 is turnedH2015 into the droughtH2725 of summerH7019. SelahH5542.
I acknowledgedH3045 my sinH2403 unto thee, and mine iniquityH5771 have I not hidH3680. I saidH559, I will confessH3034 my transgressionsH6588 unto the LORDH3068; and thou forgavestH5375 the iniquityH5771 of my sinH2403. SelahH5542.
For this shall every one that is godlyH2623 prayH6419 unto thee in a timeH6256 when thou mayest be foundH4672: surely in the floodsH7858 of greatH7227 watersH4325 they shall not come nighH5060 unto him. {when…: Heb. of finding}
Thou art my hiding placeH5643; thou shalt preserveH5341 me from troubleH6862; thou shalt compassH5437 me about with songsH7438 of deliveranceH6405. SelahH5542.
I will instructH7919 thee and teachH3384 thee in the wayH1870 whichH2098 thou shalt goH3212: I will guideH3289 thee with mine eyeH5869. {guide…: Heb. counsel thee, mine eye shall be upon thee}
Be ye not as the horseH5483, or as the muleH6505, which have no understandingH995: whose mouthH5716 must be heldH1102 in with bitH4964 and bridleH7448, lestH1077 they come nearH7126 unto thee.
ManyH7227 sorrowsH4341 shall be to the wickedH7563: but he that trustethH982 in the LORDH3068, mercyH2617 shall compassH5437 him about.
Be gladH8055 in the LORDH3068, and rejoiceH1523, ye righteousH6662: and shoutH7442 for joy, all ye that are uprightH3477 in heartH3820.
Then JosephH3130 couldH3201 not refrainH662 himself before all them that stoodH5324 by him; and he criedH7121, CauseH3318 every manH376 to go outH3318 from me. And there stoodH5975 no manH376 with him, while JosephH3130 made himself knownH3045 unto his brethrenH251.
And he weptH6963+H1065 aloudH5414: and the EgyptiansH4714 and the houseH1004 of PharaohH6547 heardH8085+H8085. {wept…: Heb. gave forth his voice in weeping}
And JosephH3130 saidH559 unto his brethrenH251, I am JosephH3130; doth my fatherH1 yet liveH2416? And his brethrenH251 couldH3201 not answerH6030 him; for they were troubledH926 at his presenceH6440. {troubled: or, terrified}
And JosephH3130 saidH559 unto his brethrenH251, Come nearH5066 to me, I pray you. And they came nearH5066. And he saidH559, I am JosephH3130 your brotherH251, whom ye soldH4376 into EgyptH4714.
Now therefore be not grievedH6087, nor angryH2734 with yourselvesH5869, that ye soldH4376 me hither: for GodH430 did sendH7971 me before youH6440 to preserve lifeH4241. {nor…: Heb. neither let there be anger in your eyes}
For these two yearsH8141 hath the famineH7458 been inH7130 the landH776: and yet there are fiveH2568 yearsH8141, in the which there shall neitherH369 be earingH2758 nor harvestH7105.
And GodH430 sentH7971 me before youH6440 to preserveH7760 you a posterityH7611 in the earthH776, and to save your livesH2421 by a greatH1419 deliveranceH6413. {to preserve…: Heb. to put for you a remnant}
So now it was not you that sentH7971 me hither, but GodH430: and he hath madeH7760 me a fatherH1 to PharaohH6547, and lordH113 of all his houseH1004, and a rulerH4910 throughout all the landH776 of EgyptH4714.
HasteH4116 ye, and go upH5927 to my fatherH1, and sayH559 unto him, Thus saithH559 thy sonH1121 JosephH3130, GodH430 hath madeH7760 me lordH113 of all EgyptH4714: come downH3381 unto me, tarryH5975 not:
And thou shalt dwellH3427 in the landH776 of GoshenH1657, and thou shalt be nearH7138 unto me, thou, and thy childrenH1121, and thy children'sH1121 childrenH1121, and thy flocksH6629, and thy herdsH1241, and all that thou hast:
And there will I nourishH3557 thee; for yet there are fiveH2568 yearsH8141 of famineH7458; lest thou, and thy householdH1004, and all that thou hast, come to povertyH3423.
And, behold, your eyesH5869 seeH7200, and the eyesH5869 of my brotherH251 BenjaminH1144, that it is my mouthH6310 that speakethH1696 unto you.
And ye shall tellH5046 my fatherH1 of all my gloryH3519 in EgyptH4714, and of all that ye have seenH7200; and ye shall hasteH4116 and bring downH3381 my fatherH1 hither.
And he fellH5307 upon his brotherH251 Benjamin'sH1144 neckH6677, and weptH1058; and BenjaminH1144 weptH1058 upon his neckH6677.
Moreover he kissedH5401 all his brethrenH251, and weptH1058 upon them: and afterH310 that his brethrenH251 talkedH1696 with him.
And the fameH6963 thereof was heardH8085 in Pharaoh'sH6547 houseH1004, sayingH559, Joseph'sH3130 brethrenH251 are comeH935: and it pleasedH3190+H5869 PharaohH6547 wellH3190+H5869, andH5869 his servantsH5650. {pleased…: Heb. was good in the eyes of Pharaoh}
And PharaohH6547 saidH559 unto JosephH3130, SayH559 unto thy brethrenH251, This doH6213 ye; ladeH2943 your beastsH1165, and goH3212, getH935 you unto the landH776 of CanaanH3667;
And takeH3947 your fatherH1 and your householdsH1004, and comeH935 unto me: and I will giveH5414 you the goodH2898 of the landH776 of EgyptH4714, and ye shall eatH398 the fatH2459 of the landH776.
Now thou art commandedH6680, this doH6213 ye; takeH3947 you wagonsH5699 out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714 for your little onesH2945, and for your wivesH802, and bringH5375 your fatherH1, and comeH935.
AlsoH5869 regardH2347 not your stuffH3627; for the goodH2898 of all the landH776 of EgyptH4714 is yours. {regard…: Heb. let not your eye spare, etc.}
And the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 didH6213 so: and JosephH3130 gaveH5414 them wagonsH5699, according to the commandmentH6310 of PharaohH6547, and gaveH5414 them provisionH6720 for the wayH1870. {commandment: Heb. mouth}
To all of them he gaveH5414 each manH376 changesH2487 of raimentH8071; but to BenjaminH1144 he gaveH5414 threeH7969 hundredH3967 pieces of silverH3701, and fiveH2568 changesH2487 of raimentH8071.
And to his fatherH1 he sentH7971 after thisH2063 manner; tenH6235 assesH2543 ladenH5375 with the good thingsH2898 of EgyptH4714, and tenH6235 she assesH860 ladenH5375 with cornH1250 and breadH3899 and meatH4202 for his fatherH1 by the wayH1870. {laden…: Heb. carrying}
So he sentH7971 his brethrenH251 awayH7971, and they departedH3212: and he saidH559 unto them, See that ye fall not outH7264 by the wayH1870.
And they went upH5927 out of EgyptH4714, and cameH935 into the landH776 of CanaanH3667 unto JacobH3290 their fatherH1,
And toldH5046 him, sayingH559, JosephH3130 is yet aliveH2416, and he is governorH4910 over all the landH776 of EgyptH4714. And Jacob's heartH3820 faintedH6313, for he believedH539 them not. {Jacob's: Heb. his}
And they toldH1696 him all the wordsH1697 of JosephH3130, which he had saidH1696 unto them: and when he sawH7200 the wagonsH5699 which JosephH3130 had sentH7971 to carryH5375 him, the spiritH7307 of JacobH3290 their fatherH1 revivedH2421:
And IsraelH3478 saidH559, It is enoughH7227; JosephH3130 my sonH1121 is yet aliveH2416: I will goH3212 and see himH7200 before I dieH4191.
And JosephH3130 saidH559 unto his brethrenH251, Come nearH5066 to me, I pray you. And they came nearH5066. And he saidH559, I am JosephH3130 your brotherH251, whom ye soldH4376 into EgyptH4714.
And when Joseph'sH3130 brethrenH251 sawH7200 that their fatherH1 was deadH4191, they saidH559, JosephH3130 will peradventureH3863 hate usH7852, and will certainlyH7725 requiteH7725 us all the evilH7451 which we didH1580 unto him.
And they sent a messengerH6680 unto JosephH3130, sayingH559, Thy fatherH1 did commandH6680 beforeH6440 he diedH4194, sayingH559, {sent: Heb. charged}
So shall ye sayH559 unto JosephH3130, ForgiveH5375, I pray theeH577 now, the trespassH6588 of thy brethrenH251, and their sinH2403; for they didH1580 unto thee evilH7451: and now, we pray thee, forgiveH5375 the trespassH6588 of the servantsH5650 of the GodH430 of thy fatherH1. And JosephH3130 weptH1058 when they spakeH1696 unto him.
