Young's Literal Translation
Then
Joseph could
no
longer
control
himself before all his
attendants
, and he cried
out
, “Send
everyone
away
from me !”
So
none
of
them
were
with Joseph
when he
made
himself known to
his brothers.
And
Joseph hath
not
been
able
to
refrain
himself before all those
standing
by
him
, and he calleth
, `Put
out
every
man
from me ;'
and
no
man
hath
stood
with him
when Joseph
maketh
himself known unto
his brethren,
But
he wept
so
loudly
that
the Egyptians heard
him
, and Pharaoh’s
household
soon
heard
of it
.
and
he giveth
forth
his
voice
in
weeping,
and
the Egyptians hear
, and the
house
of Pharaoh
heareth
.
Joseph said
to
his brothers
, “
I am Joseph !
Is my father still
alive? ”
But
they
were
unable
to answer him, because
they were
terrified
in
his presence.
And
Joseph saith
unto
his brethren
, `
I `
am '
Joseph ,
is my father yet
alive? '
and
his
brethren
have
not
been
able
to answer him, for
they have
been
troubled
at
his presence.
Then
Joseph said
to
his brothers
, “Please
come near
me .”
And they did
so.
“
I am Joseph, your brother, ”
he
said,
“the
one
you
sold into Egypt !
And
Joseph saith
unto
his brethren
, `
Come nigh
unto
me ,
I
pray
you,'
and they come
nigh;
and
he
saith,
`
I `
am '
Joseph, your brother, whom
ye
sold into Egypt ;
And now, do
not be distressed
or
angry
with
yourselves
that you
sold me into
this
place
, because
it
was
to save
lives
that
God sent me before you.
and now, be
not grieved,
nor
let
it
be displeasing
in
your
eyes
that ye
sold me hither
, for
to preserve
life
hath
God sent me before you.
For
the famine has
covered
the land these
two
years
, and there
will
be
five more
years without
plowing
or
harvesting.
`Because
these
two
years
the famine `is'
in
the heart
of
the
land, and yet
`are'
five years ,
`in'
which
there
is
neither
ploughing
nor
harvest;
God sent
me before you to preserve
you as
a remnant on
the earth
and to save
your
lives
by a great deliverance.
and
God sendeth
me before you ,
to place
of
you a remnant in
the land,
and to give
life
to
you
by a great escape;
Therefore
it
was
not you
who
sent me here
, but God, who
has
made
me a father to Pharaoh —
lord of
all his household
and ruler over all the land of Egypt.
and
now,
ye
--
ye
have
not sent me hither
, but God, and
He
doth
set
me for
a father to Pharaoh ,
and
for
lord to
all his house,
and ruler over all the land of Egypt.
Now
return
quickly
to
my father and
tell
him, ‘This
is
what
your
son
Joseph says:
God has
made
me lord of
all Egypt .
Come down to
me without
delay.
`Haste,
and
go
up
unto
my father ,
then
ye
have
said
to
him, Thus
said
Joseph thy
son,
God hath
set
me for
lord to
all Egypt ;
come down unto
me ,
stay
not,
You
shall
settle
in the land of Goshen and be
near me —you
and your
children
and grandchildren
, your
flocks
and herds
, and everything
you
own.
and
thou
hast
dwelt
in the land of Goshen ,
and been
near unto
me ,
thou
and thy
sons,
and thy
son's
sons
, and thy
flock
, and thy
herd,
and
all
that
thou
hast,
And there
I will
provide
for
you,
because
there will
be
five more
years of famine .
Otherwise
, you
and your
household and everything
you
own
will
come
to
destitution
. ’
and I have
nourished
thee
there --
for
yet
`are'
five years of famine --
lest
thou
become
poor
, thou
and thy
household ,
and all
that
thou
hast
.
Behold!
You
and my brother Benjamin can
see
that
I
, Joseph,
am
the
one
speaking with
you .
`
And lo,
your
eyes
are
seeing,
and
the
eyes
of
my brother Benjamin, that
`it
is'
my
mouth
which
is
speaking unto
you ;
Tell
my father about
all my splendor
in Egypt and everything
you
have seen .
And bring
my father down
here
quickly
. ”
and
ye
have
declared
to
my father all my honour
in Egypt ,
and all
that
ye
have seen ,
and ye
have
hasted,
and
have
brought
down
my father hither
. '
Then
Joseph
threw
his
arms
around
his brother Benjamin
and wept
, and Benjamin wept as
they
embraced.
And
he
falleth
on
the
neck
of
Benjamin
his brother ,
and weepeth
, and Benjamin hath
wept on
his
neck;
Joseph
kissed
each
of
his
brothers
as
he wept
over them .
And afterward
his brothers
talked
with him.
and
he kisseth
all
his
brethren,
and
weepeth
over them ;
and afterwards
have
his brethren
spoken
with him.
When
the news
reached
Pharaoh’s
house that
Joseph’s
brothers
had
come
, Pharaoh and his servants were
pleased.
And
the sound
hath
been
heard
in
the
house of
Pharaoh
, saying,
`Come
have
the
brethren
of
Joseph;'
and
it
is
good
in
the
eyes
of
Pharaoh ,
and in
the
eyes
of
his servants ,
Pharaoh said
to
Joseph, “Tell
your
brothers
, ‘
Do as
follows
: Load
your animals
and return
to
the land of Canaan .
and
Pharaoh saith
unto
Joseph, `Say
unto
thy
brethren
, This
do ye
: lade
your beasts,
and go,
enter
ye
the land of Canaan ,
Then
bring
your father and your families
and return
to
me .
I will
give you the best
of the land of Egypt, and you
shall
eat from
the fat of the land. ’
and
take
your father ,
and your households,
and come
unto
me ,
and
I give to
you the good
of the land of Egypt, and eat ye
the fat of the land.
You
are
also
directed
to
tell
them
: ‘
Take wagons
from
the land of Egypt for your young
children
and your wives, and bring
your father and come back.
`Yea,
thou
--
thou
hast
been
commanded
: this
do
ye,
take for
yourselves
out
of
the land of Egypt ,
waggons
for your infants,
and for
your wives, and ye
have
brought
your father ,
and come ;
But
pay
no regard
to
your belongings
, for the best
of all the land of Egypt is yours. ’”
and
your
eye
hath
no pity
on
your vessels
, for the good
of all the land of Egypt `
is '
yours. '
So
the sons of Israel did
as
they
were
told.
Joseph gave
them wagons
as
Pharaoh had
instructed
, and he also
gave
them provisions
for their
journey.
And
the sons of Israel do
so,
and
Joseph giveth
waggons
to
them by
the
command
of
Pharaoh, and he giveth
to
them provision
for the
way;
He gave
new
garments
to each of them
, but
to Benjamin he gave
three hundred shekels
of
silver
and five sets
of clothes.
to
all
of
them
hath
he given
--
to each changes
of garments
, and
to Benjamin he hath
given
three hundred silverlings,
and five changes
of garments;
And he
sent
to his father the
following
: ten donkeys
loaded
with
the best
of Egypt, and ten female
donkeys
loaded
with
grain
and bread and
provisions
for his father’s
journey
.
and to his father he
hath
sent
thus
: ten asses
bearing
of
the good
things
of Egypt, and ten she-asses
bearing
corn
and bread ,
even
food
for his father
for
the
way
.
Then
Joseph
sent
his brothers
on
their
way
, and as
they were
leaving,
he said
to
them, “Do
not quarrel
on
the way !”
And
he
sendeth
his brethren
away
, and they go;
and
he saith
unto
them, `Be
not angry
in
the way .'
So
the
brothers
went
up out of Egypt and came
to
their
father
Jacob
in the land of Canaan .
And
they
go
up out of Egypt ,
and come
in to
the land of Canaan ,
unto
Jacob
their
father,
“
Joseph is still
alive, ”
they
said,
“
and he is ruler over all the land of Egypt !”
But
Jacob
was
stunned
, for he did
not believe
them.
and
they
declare
to
him,
saying,
`
Joseph `
is '
yet
alive, '
and that
he `
is '
ruler over all the land of Egypt ;
and
his
heart
ceaseth
, for he hath
not given
credence
to
them.
However,
when
they relayed
all that
Joseph had
told
them, and when
he saw
the wagons
that
Joseph had
sent to carry
him back
, the spirit of their father Jacob
was
revived.
And
they speak
unto
him
all the
words
of
Joseph ,
which
he
hath
spoken
unto
them, and he seeth
the waggons
which
Joseph hath
sent to bear
him away
, and
live
doth
the spirit of Jacob
their father ;
“
Enough! ”
declared
Israel.
“
My son Joseph
is still
alive !
I will
go to
see him before I die. ”
and
Israel
saith,
`
Enough! Joseph
my son `
is '
yet
alive ;
I go and
see him before I die. '
