42:19 你们如果是诚实人，可以留你们中间的一个人囚在监里，但你们可以带着粮食回去，救你们家里的饥荒。
If ye be true men, let one of your brethren be bound in the house of your prison: go ye, carry corn for the famine of your houses:


42:20 把你们的小兄弟带到我这里来，如此，你们的话便有证据，你们也不至于死。他们就照样而行。
But bring your youngest brother unto me; so shall your words be verified, and ye shall not die. And they did so.


42:21 他们彼此说，我们在兄弟身上实在有罪。他哀求我们的时候，我们见他心里的愁苦，却不肯听，所以这场苦难临到我们身上。
And they said one to another, We are verily guilty concerning our brother, in that we saw the anguish of his soul, when he besought us, and we would not hear; therefore is this distress come upon us.


42:22 流便说，我岂不是对你们说过，不可伤害那孩子吗。只是你们不肯听，所以流他血的罪向我们追讨。
And Reuben answered them, saying, Spake I not unto you, saying, Do not sin against the child; and ye would not hear? therefore, behold, also his blood is required.


42:23 他们不知道约瑟听得出来，因为在他们中间用通事传话。
And they knew not that Joseph understood them; for he spake unto them by an interpreter.


42:24 约瑟转身退去，哭了一场，又回来对他们说话，就从他们中间挑出西缅来，在他们眼前把他捆绑。
And he turned himself about from them, and wept; and returned to them again, and communed with them, and took from them Simeon, and bound him before their eyes.


42:25 约瑟吩咐人把粮食装满他们的器具，把各人的银子归还在各人的口袋里，又给他们路上用的食物，人就照他的话办了。
Then Joseph commanded to fill their sacks with corn, and to restore every man's money into his sack, and to give them provision for the way: and thus did he unto them.


42:26 他们就把粮食驮在驴上，离开那里去了。
And they laded their asses with the corn, and departed thence.


42:27 到了住宿的地方，他们中间有一个人打开口袋，要拿料喂驴，才看见自己的银子仍在口袋里，
And as one of them opened his sack to give his ass provender in the inn, he espied his money; for, behold, it was in his sack's mouth.


42:28 就对弟兄们说，我的银子归还了，看阿，仍在我口袋里。他们就提心吊胆，战战兢兢地彼此说，这是神向我们作什么呢，
And he said unto his brethren, My money is restored; and, lo, it is even in my sack: and their heart failed them, and they were afraid, saying one to another, What is this that God hath done unto us?


42:29 他们来到迦南地，他们的父亲雅各那里，将所遭遇的事都告诉他，说，
And they came unto Jacob their father unto the land of Canaan, and told him all that befell unto them; saying,


42:30 那地的主对我们说严厉的话，把我们当作窥探那地的奸细。
The man, who is the lord of the land, spake roughly to us, and took us for spies of the country.


42:31 我们对他说，我们是诚实人，并不是奸细。
And we said unto him, We are true men; we are no spies:

42:32 我们本是弟兄十二人，都是一个父亲的儿子，有一个没有了，顶小的如今同我们的父亲在迦南地。
We be twelve brethren, sons of our father; one is not, and the youngest is this day with our father in the land of Canaan.


42:33 那地的主对我们说，若要我知道你们是诚实人，可以留下你们中间的一个人在我这里，你们可以带着粮食回去，救你们家里的饥荒。
And the man, the lord of the country, said unto us, Hereby shall I know that ye are true men; leave one of your brethren here with me, and take food for the famine of your households, and be gone:


42:34 把你们的小兄弟带到我这里来，我便知道你们不是奸细，乃是诚实人。这样，我就把你们的弟兄交给你们，你们也可以在这地作买卖。
And bring your youngest brother unto me: then shall I know that ye are no spies, but that ye are true men: so will I deliver you your brother, and ye shall traffick in the land.


42:35 后来他们倒口袋，不料，各人的银包都在口袋里。他们和父亲看见银包就都害怕。
And it came to pass as they emptied their sacks, that, 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 他们的父亲雅各对他们说，你们使我丧失我的儿子，约瑟没有了，西缅也没有了，你们又要将便雅悯带去。这些事都归到我身上了。
And Jacob their father said unto them, Me have ye bereaved of my children: Joseph is not, and Simeon is not, and ye will take Benjamin away: all these things are against me.


42:37 流便对他父亲说，我若不带他回来交给你，你可以杀我的两个儿子。只管把他交在我手里，我必带他回来交给你。
And Reuben spake unto his father, saying, Slay my two sons, if I bring him not to thee: deliver him into my hand, and I will bring him to thee again.


42:38 雅各说，我的儿子不可与你们一同下去。他哥哥死了，只剩下他，他若在你们所行的路上遭害，那便是你们使我白发苍苍，悲悲惨惨地下阴间去了。
And he said, My son shall not go down with you; for his brother is dead, and he is left alone: if mischief befall him by the way in the which ye go, then shall ye bring down my gray hairs with sorrow to the grave.

43:1 那地的饥荒甚大。
And the famine was sore in the land.


43:2 他们从埃及带来的粮食吃尽了，他们的父亲就对他们说，你们再去给我籴些粮来。
And it came to pass, when they had eaten up the corn which they had brought out of Egypt, their father said unto them, Go again, buy us a little food.


43:3 犹大对他说，那人谆谆地告诫我们说，你们的兄弟若不与你们同来，你们就不得见我的面。
And Judah spake unto him, saying, The man did solemnly protest unto us, saying, Ye shall not see my face, except your brother be with you.


43:4 你若打发我们的兄弟与我们同去，我们就下去给你籴粮。
If thou wilt send our brother with us, we will go down and buy thee food:


43:5 你若不打发他去，我们就不下去，因为那人对我们说，你们的兄弟若不与你们同来，你们就不得见我的面。
But if thou wilt not send him, we will not go down: for the man said unto us, Ye shall not see my face, except your brother be with you.


43:6 以色列说，你们为什么这样害我，告诉那人你们还有兄弟呢，
And Israel said, Wherefore dealt ye so ill with me, as to tell the man whether ye had yet a brother?


43:7 他们回答说，那人详细问到我们和我们的亲属，说，你们的父亲还在吗。你们还有兄弟吗。我们就按着他所问的告诉他，焉能知道他要说，必须把你们的兄弟带下来呢。
And they said, The man asked us straitly of our state, and of our kindred, saying, Is your father yet alive? have ye another brother? and we told him according to the tenor of these words: could we certainly know that he would say, Bring your brother down?


43:8 犹大又对他父亲以色列说，你打发童子与我同去，我们就起身下去，好叫我们和你，并我们的妇人孩子，都得存活，不至于死。
And Judah said unto Israel his father, Send the lad with me, and we will arise and go; that we may live, and not die, both we, and thou, and also our little ones.


43:9 我为他作保。你可以从我手中追讨，我若不带他回来交在你面前，我情愿永远担罪。
I will be surety for him; of my hand shalt thou require him: if I bring him not unto thee, and set him before thee, then let me bear the blame for ever:


43:10 我们若没有耽搁，如今第二次都回来了。
For except we had lingered, surely now we had returned this second time.


43:11 他们的父亲以色列说，若必须如此，你们就当这样行，可以将这地土产中最好的乳香，蜂蜜，香料，没药，榧子，杏仁都取一点，收在器具里，带下去送给那人作礼物，
And their father Israel said unto them, If it must be so now, do this; take of the best fruits in the land in your vessels, and carry down the man a present, a little balm, and a little honey, spices, and myrrh, nuts, and almonds:


43:12 又要手里加倍地带银子，并将归还在你们口袋内的银子仍带在手里。那或者是错了。
And take double money in your hand; and the money that was brought again in the mouth of your sacks, carry it again in your hand; peradventure it was an oversight:


43:13 也带着你们的兄弟，起身去见那人。
Take also your brother, and arise, go again unto the man:


43:14 但愿全能的神使你们在那人面前蒙怜悯，释放你们的那弟兄和便雅悯回来。我若丧了儿子，就丧了吧。
And God Almighty give you mercy before the man, that he may send away your other brother, and Benjamin. If I be bereaved of my children, I am bereaved.


43:15 于是，他们拿着那礼物，又手里加倍地带银子，并且带着便雅悯，起身下到埃及，站在约瑟面前。
And the men took that present, and they took double money in their hand, and Benjamin; and rose up, and went down to Egypt, and stood before Joseph.


43:16 约瑟见便雅悯和他们同来，就对家宰说，将这些人领到屋里。要宰杀牲畜，预备筵席，因为晌午这些人同我吃饭。
And when Joseph saw Benjamin with them, he said to the ruler of his house, Bring these men home, and slay, and make ready; for these men shall dine with me at noon.


43:17 家宰就遵着约瑟的命去行，领他们进约瑟的屋里。
And the man did as Joseph bade; and the man brought the men into Joseph's house.

43:18 他们因为被领到约瑟的屋里，就害怕，说，领我们到这里来，必是因为头次归还在我们口袋里的银子，找我们的错缝，下手害我们，强取我们为奴仆，抢夺我们的驴。
And the men were afraid, because they were brought into Joseph's house; and they said, Because of the money that was returned in our sacks at the first time are we brought in; that he may seek occasion against us, and fall upon us, and take us for bondmen, and our asses.


43:19 他们就挨进约瑟的家宰，在屋门口和他说话，
And they came near to the steward of Joseph's house, and they communed with him at the door of the house,


43:20 说，我主阿，我们头次下来实在是要籴粮。
And said, O sir, we came indeed down at the first time to buy food:


43:21 后来到了住宿的地方，我们打开口袋，不料，各人的银子，分量足数，仍在各人的口袋内，现在我们手里又带回来了。
And it came to pass, when we came to the inn, that we opened our sacks, and, behold, every man's money was in the mouth of his sack, our money in full weight: and we have brought it again in our hand.


43:22 另外又带下银子来籴粮。不知道先前谁把银子放在我们的口袋里。
And other money have we brought down in our hands to buy food: we cannot tell who put our money in our sacks.


43:23 家宰说，你们可以放心，不要害怕，是你们的神和你们父亲的神赐给你们财宝在你们的口袋里。你们的银子，我早已收了。他就把西缅带出来，交给他们。
And he said, Peace be to you, fear not: your God, and the God of your father, hath given you treasure in your sacks: I had your money. And he brought Simeon out unto them.


43:24 家宰就领他们进约瑟的屋里，给他们水洗脚，又给他们草料喂驴。
And the man brought the men into Joseph's house, and gave them water, and they washed their feet; and he gave their asses provender.


43:25 他们就预备那礼物，等候约瑟晌午来，因为他们听见要在那里吃饭。
And they made ready the present against Joseph came at noon: for they heard that they should eat bread there.


43:26 约瑟来到家里，他们就把手中的礼物拿进屋去给他，又俯伏在地，向他下拜。
And when Joseph came home, they brought him the present which was in their hand into the house, and bowed themselves to him to the earth.


43:27 约瑟问他们好，又问，你们的父亲就是你们所说的那老人家平安吗。他还在吗。
And he asked them of their welfare, and said, Is your father well, the old man of whom ye spake? Is he yet alive?


43:28 他们回答说，你仆人我们的父亲平安。他还在。于是他们低头下拜。
And they answered, Thy servant our father is in good health, he is yet alive. And they bowed down their heads, and made obeisance.


43:29 约瑟举目看见他同母的兄弟便雅悯，就说，你们向我所说那顶小的兄弟就是这位吗。又说，小儿阿，愿神赐恩给你。
And he lifted up his eyes, and saw his brother Benjamin, his mother's son, and said, Is this your younger brother, of whom ye spake unto me? And he said, God be gracious unto thee, my son.


43:30 约瑟爱弟之情发动，就急忙寻梢可哭之地，进入自己的屋里，哭了一场。
And Joseph made haste; for his bowels did yearn upon his brother: and he sought where to weep; and he entered into his chamber, and wept there.


43:31 他洗了脸出来，勉强隐忍，吩咐人摆饭。
And he washed his face, and went out, and refrained himself, and said, Set on bread.


43:32 他们就为约瑟单摆了一席，为那些人又摆了一席，也为和约瑟同吃饭的埃及人另摆了一席，因为埃及人不可和希伯来人一同吃饭。那原是埃及人所厌恶的。
And they set on for him by himself, and for them by themselves, and for the Egyptians, which did eat with him, by themselves: because the Egyptians might not eat bread with the Hebrews; for that is an abomination unto the Egyptians.


43:33 约瑟使众弟兄在他面前排列坐席，都按着长幼的次序，众弟兄就彼此诧异。
And they sat before him, the firstborn according to his birthright, and the youngest according to his youth: and the men marvelled one at another.


43:34 约瑟把他面前的食物分出来，送给他们。但便雅悯所得的比别人多五倍。他们就饮酒，和约瑟一同宴乐。
And he took and sent messes unto them from before him: but Benjamin's mess was five times so much as any of theirs. And they drank, and were merry with him.

44:1 约瑟吩咐家宰说，把粮食装满这些人的口袋，尽着他们的驴所能驮的，又把各人的银子放在各人的口袋里，
And he commanded the steward of his house, saying, Fill the men's sacks with food, as much as they can carry, and put every man's money in his sack's mouth.


44:2 并将我的银杯和那少年人籴粮的银子一同装在他的口袋里。家宰就照约瑟所说的话行了。
And put my cup, the silver cup, in the sack's mouth of the youngest, and his corn money. And he did according to the word that Joseph had spoken.


44:3 天一亮就打发那些人带着驴走了。
As soon as the morning was light, the men were sent away, they and their asses.


44:4 他们出城走了不远，约瑟对家宰说，起来，追那些人去，追上了就对他们说，你们为什么以恶报善呢。
And when they were gone out of the city, and not yet far off, Joseph said unto his steward, Up, follow after the men; and when thou dost overtake them, say unto them, Wherefore have ye rewarded evil for good?


44:5 这不是我主人饮酒的杯吗。岂不是他占卜用的吗。你们这样行是作恶了。
Is not this it in which my lord drinketh, and whereby indeed he divineth? ye have done evil in so doing.


44:6 家宰追上他们，将这些话对他们说了。
And he overtook them, and he spake unto them these same words.


44:7 他们回答说，我主为什么说这样的话呢。你仆人断不能作这样的事。
And they said unto him, Wherefore saith my lord these words? God forbid that thy servants should do according to this thing:


44:8 你看，我们从前在口袋里所见的银子，尚且从迦南地带来还你，我们怎能从你主人家里偷窃金银呢。
Behold, the money, which we found in our sacks' mouths, we brought again unto thee out of the land of Canaan: how then should we steal out of thy lord's house silver or gold?


44:9 你仆人中无论在谁那里搜出来，就叫他死，我们也作我主的奴仆。
With whomsoever of thy servants it be found, both let him die, and we also will be my lord's bondmen.


44:10 家宰说，现在就照你们的话行吧。在谁那里搜出来，谁就作我的奴仆。其馀的都没有罪。
And he said, Now also let it be according unto your words: he with whom it is found shall be my servant; and ye shall be blameless.


44:11 于是他们各人急忙把口袋卸在地下，各人打开口袋。
Then they speedily took down every man his sack to the ground, and opened every man his sack.


44:12 家宰就搜查，从年长的起到年幼的为止，那杯竟在便雅悯的口袋里搜出来。
And he searched, and began at the eldest, and left at the youngest: and the cup was found in Benjamin's sack.


44:13 他们就撕裂衣服，各人把驮子抬在驴上，回城去了。
Then they rent their clothes, and laded every man his ass, and returned to the city.


44:14 犹大和他弟兄们来到约瑟的屋中，约瑟还在那里，他们就在他面前俯伏于地。
And Judah and his brethren came to Joseph's house; for he was yet there: and they fell before him on the ground.


44:15 约瑟对他们说，你们作的是什么事呢。你们岂不知像我这样的人必能占卜吗，
And Joseph said unto them, What deed is this that ye have done? wot ye not that such a man as I can certainly divine?


44:16 犹大说，我们对我主说什么呢。还有什么话可说呢。我们怎能自己表白出来呢。神已经查出仆人的罪孽了。我们与那在他手中搜出杯来的都是我主的奴仆。
And Judah said, What shall we say unto my lord? what shall we speak? or how shall we clear ourselves? God hath found out the iniquity of thy servants: behold, we are my lord's servants, both we, and he also with whom the cup is found.


44:17 约瑟说，我断不能这样行。在谁的手中搜出杯来，谁就作我的奴仆。至于你们，可以平平安安地上你们父亲那里去。
And he said, God forbid that I should do so: but the man in whose hand the cup is found, he shall be my servant; and as for you, get you up in peace unto your father.

44:18 犹大挨近他，说，我主阿，求你容仆人说一句话给我主听，不要向仆人发烈怒，因为你如同法老一样。
Then Judah came near unto him, and said, Oh my lord, let thy servant, I pray thee, speak a word in my lord's ears, and let not thine anger burn against thy servant: for thou art even as Pharaoh.


44:19 我主曾问仆人们说，你们有父亲有兄弟没有。
My lord asked his servants, saying, Have ye a father, or a brother?


44:20 我们对我主说，我们有父亲，已经年老，还有他老年所生的一个小孩子。他哥哥死了，他母亲只撇下他一人，他父亲疼爱他。
And we said unto my lord, We have a father, an old man, and a child of his old age, a little one; and his brother is dead, and he alone is left of his mother, and his father loveth him.


44:21 你对仆人说，把他带到我这里来，叫我亲眼看看他。
And thou saidst unto thy servants, Bring him down unto me, that I may set mine eyes upon him.


44:22 我们对我主说，童子不能离开他父亲，若是离开，他父亲必死。
And we said unto my lord, The lad cannot leave his father: for if he should leave his father, his father would die.


44:23 你对仆人说，你们的小兄弟若不与你们一同下来，你们就不得再见我的面。
And thou saidst unto thy servants, Except your youngest brother come down with you, ye shall see my face no more.


44:24 我们上到你仆人我们父亲那里，就把我主的话告诉了他。
And it came to pass when we came up unto thy servant my father, we told him the words of my lord.


44:25 我们的父亲说，你们再去给我籴些粮来。
And our father said, Go again, and buy us a little food.


44:26 我们就说，我们不能下去。我们的小兄弟若和我们同往，我们就可以下去。因为，小兄弟若不与我们同往，我们必不得见那人的面。
And we said, We cannot go down: if our youngest brother be with us, then will we go down: for we may not see the man's face, except our youngest brother be with us.


44:27 你仆人我父亲对我们说，你们知道我的妻子给我生了两个儿子。
And thy servant my father said unto us, Ye know that my wife bare me two sons:


44:28 一个离开我出去了。我说他必是被撕碎了，直到如今我也没有见他。
And the one went out from me, and I said, Surely he is torn in pieces; and I saw him not since:


44:29 现在你们又要把这个带去离开我，倘若他遭害，那便是你们使我白发苍苍，悲悲惨惨地下阴间去了。
And if ye take this also from me, and mischief befall him, ye shall bring down my gray hairs with sorrow to the grave.


44:30 我父亲的命与这童子的命相连。如今我回到你仆人我父亲那里，若没有童子与我们同在，
Now therefore when I come to thy servant my father, and the lad be not with us; seeing that his life is bound up in the lad's life;


44:31 我们的父亲见没有童子，他就必死。这便是我们使你仆人我们的父亲白发苍苍，悲悲惨惨地下阴间去了。
It shall come to pass, when he seeth that the lad is not with us, that he will die: and thy servants shall bring down the gray hairs of thy servant our father with sorrow to the grave.


44:32 因为仆人曾向我父亲为这童子作保，说，我若不带他回来交给父亲，我便在父亲面前永远担罪。
For thy servant became surety for the lad unto my father, saying, If I bring him not unto thee, then I shall bear the blame to my father for ever.


44:33 现在求你容仆人住下，替这童子作我主的奴仆，叫童子和他哥哥们一同上去。
Now therefore, I pray thee, let thy servant abide instead of the lad a bondman to my lord; and let the lad go up with his brethren.


44:34 若童子不和我同去，我怎能上去见我父亲呢。恐怕我看见灾祸临到我父亲身上。
For how shall I go up to my father, and the lad be not with me? lest peradventure I see the evil that shall come on my father.

45:1 约瑟在左右站着的人面前情不自禁，吩咐一声说，人都要离开我出去。约瑟和弟兄相认的时候并没有一人站在他面前。
Then Joseph could not refrain himself before all them that stood by him; and he cried, Cause every man to go out from me. And there stood no man with him, while Joseph made himself known unto his brethren.


45:2 他就放声大哭，埃及人和法老家中的人都听见了。
And he wept aloud: and the Egyptians and the house of Pharaoh heard.


45:3 约瑟对他弟兄们说，我是约瑟。我的父亲还在吗，他弟兄不能回答，因为在他面前都惊惶。
And Joseph said unto his brethren, I am Joseph; doth my father yet live? And his brethren could not answer him; for they were troubled at his presence.


45:4 约瑟又对他弟兄们说，请你们近前来。他们就近前来。他说，我是你们的兄弟约瑟，就是你们所卖到埃及的。
And Joseph said unto his brethren, Come near to me, I pray you. And they came near. And he said, I am Joseph your brother, whom ye sold into Egypt.


45:5 现在，不要因为把我卖到这里自忧自恨。这是神差我在你们以先来，为要保全生命。
Now therefore be not grieved, nor angry with yourselves, that ye sold me hither: for God did send me before you to preserve life.


45:6 现在这地的饥荒已经二年了，还在五年不能耕种，不能收成。
For these two years hath the famine been in the land: and yet there are five years, in the which there shall neither be earing nor harvest.


45:7 神差我在你们以先来，为要给你们存留馀种在世上，又要大施拯救，保全你们的生命。
And God sent me before you to preserve you a posterity in the earth, and to save your lives by a great deliverance.


45:8 这样看来，差我到这里来的不是你们，乃是神。他又使我如法老的父，作他全家的主，并埃及全地的宰相。
So now it was not you that sent me hither, but God: and he hath made me a father to Pharaoh, and lord of all his house, and a ruler throughout all the land of Egypt.


45:9 你们要赶紧上到我父亲那里。对他说，你儿子约瑟这样说，神使我作全埃及的主，请你下到我这里来，不要耽延。
Haste ye, and go up to my father, and say unto him, Thus saith thy son Joseph, God hath made me lord of all Egypt: come down unto me, tarry not:


45:10 你和你我儿子孙子，连牛群羊群，并一切所有的，都可以住在歌珊地，与我相近。
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 thou hast:


45:11 我要在那里奉养你。因为还有五年的饥荒，免得你和你的眷属，并一切所有的，都败落了。
And there will I nourish thee; for yet there are five years of famine; lest thou, and thy household, and all that thou hast, come to poverty.


45:12 况且你们的眼和我兄弟便雅悯的眼都看见是我亲口对你们说话。
And, behold, your eyes see, and the eyes of my brother Benjamin, that it is my mouth that speaketh unto you.


45:13 你们也要将我在埃及一切的荣耀和你们所看见的事都告诉我父亲，又要赶紧地将我父亲搬到我这里来。
And ye shall tell my father of all my glory in Egypt, and of all that ye have seen; and ye shall haste and bring down my father hither.


45:14 于是约瑟伏在他兄弟便雅悯的颈项上哭，便雅悯也在他的颈项上哭。
And he fell upon his brother Benjamin's neck, and wept; and Benjamin wept upon his neck.

45:15 他又与众弟兄亲嘴，抱着他们哭，随后他弟兄就和他说话。
Moreover he kissed all his brethren, and wept upon them: and after that his brethren talked with him.


45:16 这风声传到法老的宫里，说，约瑟的弟兄们来了。法老和他的臣仆都很喜欢。
And the fame thereof was heard in Pharaoh's house, saying, Joseph's brethren are come: and it pleased Pharaoh well, and his servants.


45:17 法老对约瑟说，你吩咐你的弟兄们说，你们要这样行，把驮子抬在牲口上，起身往迦南地去。
And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, Say unto thy brethren, This do ye; lade your beasts, and go, get you unto the land of Canaan;


45:18 将你们的父亲和你们的眷属都搬到我这里来，我要把埃及地的美物赐给你们，你们也要吃这地肥美的出产。
And take your father and your households, and come unto me: and I will give you the good of the land of Egypt, and ye shall eat the fat of the land.


45:19 现在我吩咐你们要这样行，从埃及地带着车辆去，把你们的孩子和妻子，并你们的父亲都搬来。
Now thou art commanded, this do ye; take you wagons out of the land of Egypt for your little ones, and for your wives, and bring your father, and come.


45:20 你们眼中不要爱惜你们的家具，因为埃及全地的美物都是你们的。
Also regard not your stuff; for the good of all the land of Egypt is yours.


45:21 以色列的儿子们就如此行。约瑟照着法老的吩咐给他们车辆和路上用的食物，
And the children of Israel did so: and Joseph gave them wagons, according to the commandment of Pharaoh, and gave them provision for the way.


45:22 又给他们各人一套衣服，惟独给便雅悯三百银子，五套衣服。
To all of them he gave each man changes of raiment; but to Benjamin he gave three hundred pieces of silver, and five changes of raiment.


45:23 送给他父亲公驴十匹，驮着埃及的美物，母驴十匹，驮着粮食与饼和菜，为他父亲路上用。
And to his father he sent after this manner; ten asses laden with the good things of Egypt, and ten she asses laden with corn and bread and meat for his father by the way.


45:24 于是约瑟打发他弟兄们回去，又对他们说，你们不要在路上相争。
So he sent his brethren away, and they departed: and he said unto them, See that ye fall not out by the way.


45:25 他们从埃及上去，来到迦南地，他们的父亲雅各那里，
And they went up out of Egypt, and came into the land of Canaan unto Jacob their father,


45:26 告诉他说，约瑟还在，并且作埃及全地的宰相。雅各心里冰凉，因为不信他们。
And told him, saying, Joseph is yet alive, and he is governor over all the land of Egypt. And Jacob's heart fainted, for he believed them not.
