| 1 | And he commanded the steward of his house, saying, Fill the men's sacks with food, as much as they can carry, and put every man's money in his sack's mouth. | Et Joseph commanda à son maître d'hôtel, en disant: Remplis de vivres les sacs de ces gens, autant qu'ils en pourront porter, et remets l'argent de chacun à l'ouverture de son sac. | And he commanded the steward of his house, saying, Fill the men`s sacks with food, as much as they can carry, and put every man`s money in his sack`s mouth. | Giuseppe diede quest'ordine al maggiordomo di casa sua dicendo: Riempi i sacchi di questi uomini di tanti viveri quanti ne possono portare e metti il denaro di ciascuno alla bocca del suo sacco. |
| 2 | 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. | Et mets ma coupe, la coupe d'argent à l'ouverture du sac du plus petit avec l'argent de son blé; et il fit comme Joseph lui avait dit. | And put my cup, the silver cup, in the sack`s mouth of the youngest, and his grain money. And he did according to the word that Joseph had spoken. | Inoltre metti la mia coppa, la coppa d'argento, alla bocca del sacco del più giovane, assieme al denaro del suo grano. Ed egli fece come Giuseppe aveva detto. |
| 3 | As soon as the morning was light, the men were sent away, they and their asses. | Le matin dès qu'il fut jour, on renvoya ces hommes avec leurs ânes. | As soon as the morning was light, the men were sent away, they and their asses. | La mattina, non appena fu giorno, quegli uomini furono fatti partire coi loro asini. |
| 4 | 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? | Et lorsqu'ils furent sortis de la ville, avant qu'ils fussent fort loin, Joseph dit à son maître d'hôtel: Va, poursuis ces hommes, et quand tu les auras atteints, dis-leur: Pourquoi avez-vous rendu le mal pour le bien? | [And] when they were gone out of the city, and were 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? | Erano appena usciti dalla città e non erano ancora lontani, quando Giuseppe disse al maggiordomo di casa sua: Levati, insegui quegli uomini e, quando li avrai raggiunti, di' loro: "Perché avete reso male per bene? |
| 5 | Is not this it in which my lord drinketh, and whereby indeed he divineth? ye have done evil in so doing. | N'est-ce pas la coupe dans laquelle mon Seigneur boit, et par laquelle très- assurément il devinera? C'est mal fait à vous d'avoir fait cela. | Is not this that in which my lord drinketh, and whereby he indeed divineth? ye have done evil in so doing. | Non è quella la coppa in cui il mio signore beve, e della quale si serve per indovinare? Avete fatto male a fare così". |
| 6 | And he overtook them, and he spake unto them these same words. | Et il les atteignit, et leur dit ces mêmes paroles. | And he overtook them, and he spake unto them these words. | Egli li raggiunse e disse loro queste parole. |
| 7 | And they said unto him, Wherefore saith my lord these words? God forbid that thy servants should do according to this thing: | Et ils lui répondirent: Pourquoi mon Seigneur parle-t-il ainsi? A Dieu ne plaise que tes serviteurs aient fait une telle chose! | And they said unto him, Wherefore speaketh my lord such words as these? Far be it from thy servants that they should do such a thing. | Essi allora gli risposero: Perché il mio signore ci rivolge parole come queste? Lungi dai tuoi servi il fare una tale cosa! |
| 8 | 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? | Voici, nous t'avons rapporté du pays de Canaan l'argent que nous avions trouvé à l'ouverture de nos sacs, et comment déroberions-nous de l'argent ou de l'or de la maison de ton maître? | 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? | Ecco, noi ti abbiamo riportato dal paese di Canaan il denaro che avevamo trovato alla bocca dei nostri sacchi; come avremmo potuto rubare dell'argento o dell'oro dalla casa del tuo signore? |
| 9 | With whomsoever of thy servants it be found, both let him die, and we also will be my lord's bondmen. | Que celui de tes serviteurs à qui on trouvera la coupe, meure; et nous serons aussi esclaves de mon Seigneur. | With whomsoever of thy servants it be found, let him die, and we also will be my lord`s bondmen. | Quello dei tuoi servi presso il quale si troverà la coppa, sia messo a morte; e noi pure diventeremo schiavi del tuo signore. |
| 10 | 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. | Et il leur dit: Qu'il soit fait maintenant selon vos paroles; qu'il soit ainsi; que celui à qui on trouvera la coupe me soit esclave, et vous serez innocents. | And he said, Now also let it be according unto your words: he with whom it is found shall be my bondman; and ye shall be blameless. | Egli disse: Ebbene, sia fatto come dite: colui presso il quale la coppa si troverà sarà mio schiavo; e voi sarete innocenti. |
| 11 | Then they speedily took down every man his sack to the ground, and opened every man his sack. | Et incontinent chacun posa son sac en terre; et chacun ouvrit son sac. | Then they hasted, and took down every man his sack to the ground, and opened every man his sack. | Così ciascuno di loro si affrettò a mettere a terra il suo sacco, e ciascuno aprì il suo. |
| 12 | And he searched, and began at the eldest, and left at the youngest: and the cup was found in Benjamin's sack. | Et il fouilla, en commençant depuis le plus grand, et finissant au plus petit; et la coupe fut trouvée dans le sac de Benjamin. | And he searched, [and] began at the eldest, and left off at the youngest: and the cup was found in Benjamin`s sack. | Il maggiordomo li frugò, cominciando col maggiore, per finire col più giovane; e la coppa fu trovata nel sacco di Beniamino. |
| 13 | Then they rent their clothes, and laded every man his ass, and returned to the city. | Alors ils déchirèrent leurs vêtements, et chacun rechargea son âne, et ils retournèrent à la ville. | Then they rent their clothes, and laded every man his ass, and returned to the city. | Allora essi si stracciarono le vesti ricaricarono ciascuno il suo asino e tornarono nella città. |
| 14 | And Judah and his brethren came to Joseph's house; for he was yet there: and they fell before him on the ground. | Et Juda vint avec ses frères en la maison de Joseph, qui était encore là, et ils se jetèrent devant lui en terre. | And Judah and his brethren came to Joseph`s house; and he was yet there: and they fell before him on the ground. | Giuda e i suoi fratelli arrivarono alla casa di Giuseppe, che si trovava ancora là, e si gettarono a terra davanti a lui. |
| 15 | 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? | Et Joseph leur dit: Quelle action avez-vous faite? Ne savez-vous pas qu'un homme tel que moi ne manque pas de deviner? | And Joseph said unto them, What deed is this that ye have done? know ye not that such a man as I can indeed divine? | E Giuseppe disse loro: Che azione è questa che avete fatto? Non lo sapete che un uomo come me è in grado di indovinare?. |
| 16 | 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. | Et Juda lui dit: Que dirons-nous à mon Seigneur? Comment parlerons-nous? et comment nous justifierons-nous? Dieu a trouvé l'iniquité de tes serviteurs; voici, nous sommes esclaves de mon Seigneur, tant nous, que celui dans la main auquel la coupe a été trouvée. | 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 bondmen, both we, and he also in whose hand the cup is found. | Giuda rispose: Che diremo al mio signore? Quali parole useremo, o come ci potremo giustificare? DIO ha ritrovato l'iniquità dei tuoi servi. Ecco, siamo schiavi del mio signore, tanto noi quanto colui in mano del quale è stata trovata la coppa. |
| 17 | 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. | Mais il dit: A Dieu ne plaise que je fasse cela! l'homme en la main duquel la coupe a été trouvée, me sera esclave; mais vous, remontez en paix vers votre père. | And he said, Far be it from me that I should do so: the man in whose hand the cup is found, he shall be my bondman; but as for you, get you up in peace unto your father. | Ma Giuseppe disse: Lungi da me il fare questo! L'uomo, in mano del quale è stata trovata la coppa, sarà mio schiavo; quanto a voi, ritornate in pace da vostro padre. |
| 18 | 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. | Alors Juda s'approcha de lui, en disant: Hélas mon Seigneur! je te prie, que ton serviteur dise un mot, et que mon Seigneur l'écoute, et que ta colère ne s'enflamme point contre ton serviteur; car tu es comme Pharaon. | 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. | Allora Giuda si accostò a Giuseppe e disse: Di grazia, signor mio, permetti al tuo servo di far udire una parola al mio signore, e non si accenda l'ira tua contro il tuo servo, perché tu sei come il Faraone. |
| 19 | My lord asked his servants, saying, Have ye a father, or a brother? | Mon Seigneur interrogea ses serviteurs, en disant: Avez-vous père, ou frère? | My lord asked his servants, saying, Have ye a father, or a brother? | Il mio signore interrogò i suoi servi, dicendo: "Avete voi padre o fratello?". |
| 20 | 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. | Et nous répondîmes à mon Seigneur: Nous avons notre père qui est âgé, et un enfant qui lui est né en sa vieillesse, et qui est le plus petit d'entre nous; son frère est mort, et celui-ci est resté seul de sa mère; et son père l'aime. | 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. | E noi rispondemmo al mio signore: "Abbiamo un padre che è vecchio con un giovane figlio, natogli nella vecchiaia; suo fratello è morto, così egli è rimasto l'unico figlio di sua madre; e suo padre l'ama". |
| 21 | And thou saidst unto thy servants, Bring him down unto me, that I may set mine eyes upon him. | Or tu as dit à tes serviteurs: Faites-le descendre vers moi, et je le verrai. | And thou saidst unto thy servants, Bring him down unto me, that I may set mine eyes upon him. | Allora tu dicesti ai tuoi servi: "Portatemelo, perché lo possa vedere coi miei occhi". |
| 22 | And we said unto my lord, The lad cannot leave his father: for if he should leave his father, his father would die. | Et nous dîmes à mon Seigneur: Cet enfant ne peut laisser son père; car s'il le laisse, son père mourra. | And we said unto my lord, The lad cannot leave his father: for if he should leave his father, his father would die. | E noi dicemmo al mio signore: "Il fanciullo non può lasciare suo padre, perché se lo dovesse lasciare, suo padre morrebbe". |
| 23 | And thou saidst unto thy servants, Except your youngest brother come down with you, ye shall see my face no more. | Alors tu dis à tes serviteurs: Si votre petit frère ne descend avec vous, vous ne verrez plus ma face. | And thou saidst unto thy servants, Except your youngest brother come down with you, ye shall see my face no more. | Ma tu dicesti ai tuoi servi: "Se il vostro fratello più giovane non scende con voi, voi non vedrete più la mia faccia". |
| 24 | And it came to pass when we came up unto thy servant my father, we told him the words of my lord. | Or il est arrivé qu'étant de retour vers ton serviteur mon père, nous lui rapportâmes les paroles de mon Seigneur. | And it came to pass when we came up unto thy servant my father, we told him the words of my lord. | Così quando fummo risaliti dal tuo servo, mio padre, gli riferimmo le parole del mio signore. |
| 25 | And our father said, Go again, and buy us a little food. | Depuis, notre père nous dit: Retournez, et nous achetez un peu de vivres. | And our father said, Go again, buy us a little food. | Allora nostro padre disse: "Tornate a comperarci un po' di viveri". |
| 26 | 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. | Et nous lui dîmes: Nous ne pouvons y descendre; mais si notre petit frère est avec nous, nous y descendrons, car nous ne saurions voir la face de cet homme, si notre jeune frère n'est avec nous. | 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, expect our youngest brother be with us. | Noi rispondemmo: "Non possiamo scendere laggiù; solo se il nostro fratello più giovane verrà con noi, scenderemo; perché non possiamo vedere la faccia di quell'uomo, se il nostro fratello più giovane non è con noi". |
| 27 | And thy servant my father said unto us, Ye know that my wife bare me two sons: | Et ton serviteur mon père nous répondit: Vous savez que ma femme m'a enfanté deux fils, | And thy servant my father said unto us, Ye know that my wife bare me two sons: | E il tuo servo, mio padre, ci rispose: "Voi sapete che mia moglie mi partorì due figli; |
| 28 | And the one went out from me, and I said, Surely he is torn in pieces; and I saw him not since: | Dont l'un s'en est allé d'avec moi, et j'ai dit: Certainement il a été déchiré; et je ne l'ai point vu depuis. | and the one went out from me, and I said, Surely he is torn in pieces; and I have not seen him since: | uno di essi mi lasciò, e io dissi: Certo, egli è stato sbranato; e non l'ho più rivisto da allora; |
| 29 | And if ye take this also from me, and mischief befall him, ye shall bring down my gray hairs with sorrow to the grave. | Et si vous emmenez aussi celui-ci et que quelque accident mortel lui arrive, vous ferez descendre mes cheveux blancs avec douleur au sépulcre. | and if ye take this one also from me, and harm befall him, ye will bring down my gray hairs with sorrow to Sheol. | or se mi togliete anche questi e se gli avviene qualche disgrazia voi farete scendere nel dolore la mia canizie nella tomba". |
| 30 | Now therefore when I come to thy servant my father, and the lad be not with us; seeing that his life is bound up in the lad's life; | Maintenant donc quand je serai venu vers ton serviteur mon père, si l'enfant, dont l'âme est liée étroitement avec la sienne, n'est point avec nous, | Now therefore when I come to thy servant my father, and the lad is not with us; seeing that his life is bound up in the lad`s life; | Or dunque quando giungerò dal tuo servo mio padre se il fanciullo non è con noi, poiché la sua vita è legata a quella del fanciullo, |
| 31 | It shall come 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. | Il arrivera qu'aussitôt qu'il aura vu que l'enfant ne sera point avec nous, il mourra; ainsi tes serviteurs feront descendre avec douleur les cheveux blancs de ton serviteur notre père au sépulcre. | it will come to pass, when he seeth that the lad is not [with us], that he will die: and thy servants will bring down the gray hairs of thy servant our father with sorrow to Sheol. | avverrà che appena avrà visto che il fanciullo non è con noi, egli morirà; e i tuoi servi avranno fatto scendere nel dolore la canizie del tuo servo, nostro padre, nella tomba. |
| 32 | 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. | De plus, ton serviteur a répondu de l'enfant pour l'emmener d'auprès de mon père, en disant: Si je ne te le ramène, je serai toute ma vie sujet à la peine envers mon père. | For thy servant became surety for the lad unto my father, saying, If I bring him not unto thee, then shall I bear the blame to my father for ever. | Ora, siccome il tuo servo si è reso garante del fanciullo presso mio padre e gli ha detto: "Se non te lo riconduco sarò per sempre colpevole verso mio padre" |
| 33 | 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. | Ainsi maintenant, je te prie, que ton serviteur soit esclave de mon Seigneur au lieu de l'enfant, et qu'il remonte avec ses frères. | Now therefore, let thy servant, I pray thee, abide instead of the lad a bondman to my lord; and let the lad go up with his brethren. | deh, permetti ora che il tuo servo rimanga schiavo del mio signore al posto del fanciullo, e che il fanciullo se ne torni con i suoi fratelli. |
| 34 | For how shall I go up to my father, and the lad be not with me? lest peradventure I see the evil that shall come on my father. | Car comment remonterai-je vers mon père, si l'enfant n'est avec moi? Que je ne voie point l'affliction qu'en aurait mon père! | For how shall I go up to my father, if the lad be not with me? lest I see the evil that shall come on my father. | Perché, come potrei ritornare da mio padre, se il fanciullo non è con me? Ah, che io non veda il dolore che coglierebbe mio padre!. |
