| 2 | And he said, Behold, I have heard that there is corn in Egypt: get you down thither, and buy for us from thence; that we may live, and not die. | Et il dit: Voici, j'ai appris qu'il y a du blé à vendre en Égypte; descendez-y, et achetez-nous-y du blé, afin que nous vivions, et ne mourions point. | And he said, Behold, I have heard that there is grain in Egypt: get you down thither, and buy for us from thence; that we may live, and not die. | Poi disse: Ecco, ho sentito dire che vi è del grano in Egitto; andate laggiù a comprare del grano per noi, affinché possiamo vivere e non abbiamo a morire. |
| 3 | And Joseph's ten brethren went down to buy corn in Egypt. | Alors dix frères de Joseph descendirent, pour acheter du blé en Égypte. | And Joseph`s ten brethren went down to buy grain from Egypt. | Così i dieci fratelli di Giuseppe scesero in Egitto per comprarvi del grano. |
| 4 | But Benjamin, Joseph's brother, Jacob sent not with his brethren; for he said, Lest peradventure mischief befall him. | Mais Jacob n'envoya point Benjamin, frère de Joseph, avec ses frères; car il dit: Prenons garde qu'il ne lui arrive malheur! | But Benjamin, Joseph`s brother, Jacob sent not with his brethren; for he said, Lest Peradventure harm befall him. | Ma Giacobbe non mandò Beniamino, fratello di Giuseppe, con i suoi fratelli, perché diceva: Che non gli succeda qualche disgrazia. |
| 5 | And the sons of Israel came to buy corn among those that came: for the famine was in the land of Canaan. | Et les fils d'Israël vinrent pour acheter du blé, au milieu de ceux qui venaient aussi; car la famine était au pays de Canaan. | And the sons of Israel came to buy among those that came: for the famine was in the land of Canaan. | I figli di Israele giunsero dunque per comprare del grano, in mezzo agli altri arrivati, perché nel paese di Canaan vi era la carestia. |
| 6 | And Joseph was the governor over the land, and he it was that sold to all the people of the land: and Joseph's brethren came, and bowed down themselves before him with their faces to the earth. | Or, c'était Joseph qui commandait dans le pays, c'était lui qui vendait le blé à tout le peuple du pays. Les frères de Joseph vinrent donc et se prosternèrent devant lui, la face contre terre. | And Joseph was the governor over the land; he it was that sold to all the people of the land.

| 7 | And Joseph saw his brethren, and he knew them, but made himself strange unto them, and spake roughly unto them; and he said unto them, Whence come ye? And they said, From the land of Canaan to buy food. | Et Joseph vit ses frères, et les reconnut; mais il fit l'étranger avec eux, et leur parla durement, et leur dit: D'où venez-vous?

| 8 | And Joseph knew his brethren, but they knew not him. | Joseph reconnut donc ses frères; mais eux ne le reconnurent point. | And Joseph knew his brethren, but they knew not him. | Così Giuseppe riconobbe i suoi fratelli, ma essi non riconobbero lui. |
| 9 | And Joseph remembered the dreams which he dreamed of them, and said unto them, Ye are spies; to see the nakedness of the land ye are come. | Et Joseph se souvint des songes qu'il avait eus à leur sujet. Et il leur dit: Vous êtes des espions; vous êtes venus pour observer les lieux faibles du pays. | And Joseph remembered the dreams which he dreamed of them, and said unto them, Ye are spies; to see the nakedness of the land ye are come. | Giuseppe allora si ricordò dei sogni che aveva fatto intorno a loro e disse: Voi siete delle spie! Siete venuti per vedere i punti indifesi del paese!. |
| 10 | And they said unto him, Nay, my lord, but to buy food are thy servants come. | Et ils lui répondirent: Non, mon seigneur, mais tes serviteurs sont venus pour acheter des vivres. | And they said unto him, Nay, my lord, but to buy food are thy servants come. | Essi gli risposero: No, signor mio; i tuoi servi son venuti a comperare dei viveri. |

| 13 | And they said, Thy servants are twelve brethren, the sons of one man in the land of Canaan; and, behold, the youngest is this day with our father, and one is not. | Et ils répondirent: Nous, tes serviteurs, sommes douze frères, fils d'un même homme, au pays de Canaan. Et voici, le plus jeune est aujourd'hui avec notre père; et l'un n'est plus. | And they said, We thy servants are twelve brethren, the sons of one man in the land of Canaan; and, behold, the youngest is this day with our father, and one is not. | Allora essi dissero: Noi, tuoi servi, siamo dodici fratelli, figli di uno stesso uomo nel paese di Canaan. Ed ecco, il più giovane è oggi con nostro padre, e uno non è più. |
| 14 | And Joseph said unto them, That is it that I spake unto you, saying, Ye are spies: | Et Joseph leur dit: C'est ce que je vous ai dit: Vous êtes des espions. | And Joseph said unto them, That is it that I spake unto you, saying, Ye are spies: | Ma Giuseppe disse loro: La cosa è come vi ho detto; siete delle spie! |
| 15 | Hereby ye shall be proved: By the life of Pharaoh ye shall not go forth hence, except your youngest brother come hither. | Voici comment vous serez éprouvés: Par la vie de Pharaon, vous ne sortirez point d'ici, que votre jeune frère n'y soit venu. | hereby ye shall be proved: by the life of Pharaoh ye shall not go forth hence, except your youngest brother come hither. | Ecco come sarete messi alla prova: Com'è vero che il Faraone vive, non uscirete di qui prima che il vostro fratello più giovane sia venuto qui. |
| 16 | Send one of you, and let him fetch your brother, and ye shall be kept in prison, that your words may be proved, whether there be any truth in you: or else by the life of Pharaoh surely ye are spies. | Envoyez l'un de vous et qu'il amène votre frère; et vous, demeurez prisonniers; et que vos paroles soient éprouvées, pour voir si la vérité est avec vous. Autrement, par la vie de Pharaon, vous êtes des espions. | Send one of you, and let him fetch your brother, and ye shall be bound, that your words may be proved, whether there be truth in you: or else by the life of Pharaoh surely ye are spies. | Mandate uno di voi a prendere il vostro fratello; e voi resterete qui in carcere, perché le vostre parole siano messe alla prova, e si veda se c'è del vero in voi; altrimenti com'è vero che il Faraone vive, siete delle spie!. |
| 17 | And he put them all together into ward three days. | Et il les fit mettre ensemble en prison pour trois jours. | And he put them all together into ward three days. | Così li mise assieme in prigione per tre giorni. |
| 18 | And Joseph said unto them the third day, This do, and live; for I fear God: | Et, au troisième jour, Joseph leur dit: Faites ceci, et vous vivrez; je crains Dieu. | And Joseph said unto them the third day, This do, and live: for I fear God: | Il terzo giorno, Giuseppe disse loro: Fate questo e vivrete; io temo DIO! |
| 19 | 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: | Si vous êtes gens de bien, que l'un de vous, votre frère, reste lié dans le lieu de votre prison, et vous, allez, emportez du blé, pour subvenir à la famine de vos maisons. | if ye be true men, let one of your brethren be bound in your prison-house; but go ye, carry grain for the famine of your houses: | Se siete gente onesta, uno di voi fratelli resti qui incatenato nella nostra prigione, e voi andate a portare il grano per la vostra famiglia che muore di Fame; |
| 20 | But bring your youngest brother unto me; so shall your words be verified, and ye shall not die. And they did so. | Et amenez-moi votre jeune frère; et vos paroles seront reconnues véritables, et vous ne mourrez point. Et ils firent ainsi. | and bring your youngest brother unto me; so shall your words be verified, and ye shall not die. And they did so. | Poi conducetemi Il vostro fratello più giovane; così le vostre parole saranno verificate e voi non morrete. Ed essi fecero così. |
| 21 | 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. | Et ils se disaient l'un à l'autre: Vraiment, nous sommes coupables à l'égard de notre frère; car nous avons vu l'angoisse de son âme, quand il nous demandait grâce, et nous ne l'avons point écouté; voilà pourquoi cette angoisse nous est arrivée. | And they said one to another, We are verily guilty concerning our brother, in that we saw the distress of his soul, when he besought us, and we would not hear; therefore is this distress come upon us. | Allora si dicevano l'un l'altro: Noi siamo veramente colpevoli nei confronti di nostro fratello, perché vedemmo l'angoscia dell'anima sua quando egli ci supplicava, ma non gli demmo ascolto! Ecco perché ci è venuta addosso questa sventura. |
| 22 | 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. | Et Ruben leur répondit, en disant: Ne vous disais-je pas bien: Ne commettez point ce péché contre cet enfant? Mais vous n'écoutiez point; et voici que son sang nous est redemandé. | And Reuben answered them, saying, Spake I not unto you, saying, Do not sin against the child; and ye would not hear? therefore also, behold, his blood is required. | Ruben rispose loro, dicendo: Non ve lo dicevo io: "Non commettete questo peccato contro il fanciullo!"? Ma non mi deste ascolto. Perciò ecco, ora ci si chiede conto del suo sangue. |
| 23 | And they knew not that Joseph understood them; for he spake unto them by an interpreter. | Or, ils ne savaient pas que Joseph comprenait, parce qu'il leur parlait par le moyen d'un interprète. | And they knew not that Joseph understood them; for there was an interpreter between them. | Essi non sapevano che Giuseppe li capiva, perché fra lui e loro vi era un interprete. |
| 24 | 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. | Et il se détourna d'eux pour pleurer. Puis il retourna vers eux, et leur parla; et il prit d'entre eux Siméon, et le fit lier devant leurs yeux. | And he turned himself about from them, and wept; and he returned to them, and spake to them, and took Simeon from among them, and bound him before their eyes. | Allora egli si allontanò da loro e pianse. Poi ritornò presso di loro e parlò loro; e prese fra loro Simeone e lo fece incatenare sotto i loro occhi. |
| 25 | 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. | Et Joseph commanda qu'on remplît leurs sacs de froment, et qu'on remît l'argent de chacun d'eux dans son sac, et qu'on leur donnât des provisions pour le chemin. | Then Joseph commanded to fill their vessels with grain, and to restore every man`s money into his sack, and to give them provisions for the way: and thus was it done unto them. | Poi Giuseppe ordinò di riempire di grano i loro sacchi e di rimettere il denaro di ciascuno nel suo sacco, e di dare loro provviste per il viaggio. E così fu fatto. |
| 26 | And they laded their asses with the corn, and departed thence. | Ce qui fut fait. Puis ils chargèrent leur blé sur leurs ânes, et s'en allèrent. | And they laded their asses with their grain, and departed thence. | Essi caricarono quindi il loro grano sui loro asini e se ne andarono. |
| 27 | 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. | Et l'un d'eux ouvrit son sac pour donner du fourrage à son âne dans l'hôtellerie; et il vit son argent; et voici, il était à l'entrée de son sac. | And as one of them opened his sack to give his ass provender in the lodging-place, he espied his money; and, behold, it was in the mouth of his sack. | Ora, nel luogo dove pernottavano uno di essi aperse il suo sacco per dare del foraggio al suo asino e vide il proprio denaro; ed ecco che stava alla bocca del suo sacco; |
| 28 | 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? | Et il dit à ses frères: Mon argent m'a été rendu; et en effet, le voici dans mon sac. Et le coeur leur manqua, et ils se dirent en tremblant l'un à l'autre: Qu'est-ce que Dieu nous a fait? | 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 turned trembling one to another, saying, What is this that God hath done unto us? | così disse ai suoi fratelli: Il mio denaro mi è stato restituito; eccolo qui nel mio sacco. Allora il cuore venne loro meno e, tutti spaventati, dicevano l'un l'altro: Che è mai questo che DIO ci ha fatto?. |
| 29 | And they came unto Jacob their father unto the land of Canaan, and told him all that befell unto them; saying, | Et ils vinrent vers Jacob, leur père, au pays de Canaan, et lui racontèrent toutes les choses qui leur étaient arrivées, en disant: | And they came unto Jacob their father unto the land of Canaan, and told him all that had befallen them, saying, | Così giunsero da Giacobbe, loro padre nel paese di Canaan e gli raccontarono tutto quanto era loro accaduto, dicendo: |

| 33 | 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: | Et l'homme qui est le seigneur du pays, nous a dit: A ceci je connaîtrai que vous êtes des gens de bien: Laissez avec moi l'un de vos frères, prenez ce qu'il faut pour la famine de vos maisons, et partez; | And the man, the lord of the land, said unto us, Hereby shall I know that ye are true men: leave one of your brethren with me, and take [grain for] the famine of your houses, and go your way; | Ma quell'uomo, signore del paese, ci ha detto: "Da questo conoscerò se siete gente onesta: lasciate presso di me uno dei vostri fratelli, prendete dei viveri per la vostra famiglia che muore di fame e andate; |
| 34 | 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. | Et amenez-moi votre jeune frère. Alors je connaîtrai que vous n'êtes point des espions, mais des gens de bien; je vous rendrai votre frère, et vous trafiquerez dans le pays. | 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 traffic in the land. | Poi portatemi il vostro fratello più giovane. Così conoscerò che non siete delle spie ma gente onesta; io vi renderò il vostro fratello, e voi potrete commerciare nel paese". |
| 35 | 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. | Et comme ils vidaient leurs sacs, voici, le paquet d'argent de chacun était dans son sac; et ils virent, eux et leur père, leurs paquets d'argent, et ils eurent peur. | And it came to pass as they emptied their sacks, that, behold, every man`s bundle of money was in his sack: and when they and their father saw their bundles of money, they were afraid. | Or come essi vuotavano i loro sacchi, ecco che l'involto del denaro di ciascuno era nel suo sacco; così essi e il loro padre videro gli involti del loro denaro e furono presi da paura. |
| 36 | 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. | Alors Jacob, leur père, leur dit: Vous m'avez privé d'enfants: Joseph n'est plus, et Siméon n'est plus, et vous emmèneriez Benjamin!

| 37 | 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. | Et Ruben parla à son père, et lui dit: Tu feras mourir mes deux fils, si je ne te le ramène; confie-le-moi et je te le rendrai. | 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. | Ruben disse a suo padre: Se non te lo riporto, fa' morire i miei due Figli. Affidalo a me, io te lo ricondurrò. |
| 38 | 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. | Et il répondit: Mon fils ne descendra point avec vous; car son frère est mort, et celui-ci est resté seul. Et s'il lui arrivait malheur dans le chemin par où vous irez, vous feriez descendre mes cheveux blancs avec douleur au Sépulcre. | And he said, My son shall not go down with you; for his brother is dead, and he only is left: if harm befall him by the way in which ye go, then will ye bring down my gray hairs with sorrow to Sheol. | Ma Giacobbe rispose: Il mio figlio non scenderà con voi, perché il suo fratello è morto e questi solo è rimasto: se gli succedesse qualche disgrazia durante il viaggio fareste scendere nel dolore la mia canizie alla tomba. |
