创世记 43:2 · Genesis 43:2
他们从埃及带来的粮谷吃尽了，他们的父亲就对他们说：「你们再去给我们买些粮来。」
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.
创世记 43:3 · Genesis 43:3
犹大对他说：「那人严严警戒我们说：『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.
创世记 43:4 · Genesis 43:4
你若打发我们的兄弟与我们同去，我们就下去给你买粮；
If thou wilt send our brother with us, we will go down and buy thee food:
创世记 43:5 · Genesis 43:5
只是你若不打发他去，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.
创世记 43:6 · Genesis 43:6
以色列说：「你们为甚麽这样害我，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?
创世记 43:7 · Genesis 43:7
他们说：「那人详细问到我们和我们亲属的景况，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；我们焉能知道他要说『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?
创世记 43:8 · Genesis 43:8
犹大又对他父亲以色列说：「你打发男童与我同去，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，不至於死。
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.
创世记 43:9 · Genesis 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:
创世记 43:10 · Genesis 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.
创世记 43:11 · Genesis 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丶蜂蜜丶香料丶没药丶坚果丶杏仁都取一点，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:
创世记 43:12 · Genesis 43:12
又要手里带双倍的钱，并将归还在你们口袋内的钱仍带在手里；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:
创世记 43:13 · Genesis 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:
创世记 43:14 · Genesis 43:14
但愿 上帝─ 全能者使你们在那人面前蒙怜悯，释放你们的那兄弟和便雅悯回来。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.
创世记 43:15 · Genesis 43:15
於是，他们拿着那礼物，又手里双倍地带钱，并且带着便雅悯；就起身下到埃及，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.
创世记 43:16 · Genesis 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，因为正午这些人同我用餐。」
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.
创世记 43:17 · Genesis 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.
创世记 43:18 · Genesis 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钱，他好寻机会攻击我们，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.
创世记 43:19 · Genesis 43:19
他们就挨进约瑟的家宰，在屋门口与他谈论，
And they came near to the steward of Joseph's house, and they communed with him at the door of the house,
创世记 43:20 · Genesis 43:20
说：「我主啊，我们头次下来实在是要买粮。
And said, O sir, we came indeed down at the first time to buy food:
创世记 43:21 · Genesis 43:21
後来到了住宿的地方，我们打开口袋，不料，各人的钱，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.
创世记 43:22 · Genesis 43:22
另外又带下钱来买粮。我们道不出先前谁把钱放在我们的口袋里。」
And other money have we brought down in our hands to buy food: we cannot tell who put our money in our sacks.
创世记 43:23 · Genesis 43:23
家宰说：「你们可以放心，不要害怕，是你们的 上帝和你们父亲的 上帝赐给你们财宝在你们的口袋里；你们的钱，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.
创世记 43:24 · Genesis 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.
创世记 43:25 · Genesis 43:25
他们就预备那礼物，等候约瑟正午来，因为他们听见要在那里吃饼。
And they made ready the present against Joseph came at noon: for they heard that they should eat bread there.
创世记 43:26 · Genesis 43:26
约瑟来到家里，他们就把手中的礼物拿进屋去给他，又向他屈身在地。
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.
创世记 43:27 · Genesis 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?
创世记 43:28 · Genesis 43:28
他们回答说：「你仆人─我们的父亲平安；他还在。」於是他们低头下拜。
And they answered, Thy servant our father [is] in good health, he [is] yet alive. And they bowed down their heads, and made obeisance.
创世记 43:29 · Genesis 43:29
约瑟举目看见他同母的兄弟便雅悯，就说：「你们向我所说那小兄弟就是这位吗？」又说：「我儿啊，愿 上帝赐恩给你。」
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.
创世记 43:30 · Genesis 43:30
约瑟的心肠因爱弟之情发动，就急忙寻找可哭之地，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.
创世记 43:31 · Genesis 43:31
他洗了脸出来，自己隐忍，便说：「摆饼罢。」
And he washed his face, and went out, and refrained himself, and said, Set on bread.
创世记 43:32 · Genesis 43:32
他们就为约瑟单摆了一席，为那些人又摆了一席，也为和约瑟同吃的埃及人另摆了一席，因为埃及人不可和希伯来人一同吃饼；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.
创世记 43:33 · Genesis 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.
创世记 43:34 · Genesis 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 their's. And they drank, and were merry with him.
