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 e 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 e 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 e 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 e on my father。
旧约 创世记（Genesis） 第 45 章 （ 本篇共有 50 章 ） 7上一章 下一章8 目录
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； e 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 e
