Genesis 43:1-15

1And the famineH7458 was sore in the landH776.

2And it cameH935 to passH935, when they had eatenH398 upH935 the corn whichH834 they had broughtH935 outH413 of EgyptH4714, their fatherH1 saidH559 unto them, GoH935 againH7725, buyH7666 usH413 a littleH4592 foodH400.

3And JudahH3063 spake unto him, sayingH559, The manH376 didH3808 solemnlyH5749 protest unto usH413, sayingH559, Ye shall notH3808 seeH7200 my faceH6440, exceptH1115 your brotherH251 be with youH6440.

4IfH518 thou wilt sendH7971 our brotherH251 with usH7971, weH518 will goH3381 downH3381 and buyH7666 thee foodH400:

5but ifH518 thou wilt notH3808 sendH7971 him, weH3588 will notH3808 goH3381 downH3381: for the manH376 saidH559 unto usH413, Ye shall notH3808 seeH7200 my faceH6440, exceptH518 your brotherH251 be with youH3588.

6And IsraelH3478 saidH559, Wherefore dealt ye so ill with meH5046, as to tellH5046 the manH376 whether ye had yet a brotherH251?

7And they saidH559, The manH376 askedH7592 straitly concerning ourselvesH4138, and concerning our kindredH4138, sayingH559, Is your fatherH1 yet aliveH2416? have ye anotherH251 brotherH251? and weH3588 toldH5046 him accordingH5921 to the tenor of theseH428 wordsH1697: couldH376 weH3588 in anyH376 wise knowH3045 that he would sayH559, BringH3381 your brotherH251 downH3381?

8And JudahH3063 saidH559 unto IsraelH3478 his fatherH1, SendH7971 the ladH5288 with meH413, and weH587 will ariseH6965 and goH7971; that weH587 may liveH2421, and notH3808 dieH4191, bothH1571 weH587, and thou, and also our littleH2945 onesH2945.

9I will be suretyH6148 for him; of my handH3027 shalt thou requireH1245 him: ifH518 I bringH935 him notH3808 unto thee, and setH935 him beforeH6440 thee, then letH3808 meH413 bearH2398 the blameH2398 for ever:

10for exceptH3588 weH3588 had lingered, surelyH3588 weH3588 had nowH6258 returnedH7725 a second time.

11And their fatherH1 IsraelH3478 saidH559 unto them, IfH518 it be soH3651 nowH645, doH6213 this; takeH3947 of the choice fruits of the landH776 in your vesselsH3627, and carryH6213 downH3381 the manH376 a presentH4503, a littleH4592 balmH6875, and a littleH4592 honeyH1706, spicery and myrrhH3910, nutsH992, and almondsH8247:

12and takeH3947 doubleH4932 moneyH3701 in your handH3027; and the moneyH3701 that was returnedH7725 in the mouthH6310 of your sacksH572 carryH3947 againH7725 in your handH3027; peradventure it was an oversight:

13takeH3947 also your brotherH251, and ariseH6965, goH7725 againH7725 unto the manH376:

14and GodH410 AlmightyH7706 giveH5414 youH834 mercyH7356 beforeH6440 the manH376, that he may releaseH7971 unto youH834 your otherH312 brotherH251 and BenjaminH1144. And ifH834 I be bereavedH7921 of my childrenH7921, I am bereavedH7921.

15And the menH376 tookH3947 that presentH4503, and they tookH3947 doubleH4932 moneyH3701 in their handH3027, and BenjaminH1144; and roseH6965 upH6965, and wentH3381 downH3381 to EgyptH4714, and stoodH5975 beforeH6440 JosephH3130.
