Genesis 44:34 (ESV) English Standard Version

1 Then he commanded the steward of his house, "Fill the men's sacks with food, as much as they can carry, and put each man's money in the mouth of his sack,
2 and put my cup, the silver cup, in the mouth of the sack of the youngest, with his money for the grain." And he did as Joseph told him.
3 As soon as the morning was light, the men were sent away with their donkeys.
4 They had gone only a short distance from the city. Now Joseph said to his steward, "Up, follow after the men, and when you overtake them, say to them, 'Why have you repaid evil for good?
5 Is it not from this that my lord drinks, and by this that he practices divination? You have done evil in doing this.'"
6 When he overtook them, he spoke to them these words.
7 They said to him, "Why does my lord speak such words as these? Far be it from your servants to do such a thing!
8 Behold, the money that we found in the mouths of our sacks we brought back to you from the land of Canaan. How then could we steal silver or gold from your lord's house?
9 Whichever of your servants is found with it shall die, and we also will be my lord's servants."
10 He said, "Let it be as you say: he who is found with it shall be my servant, and the rest of you shall be innocent."
11 Then each man quickly lowered his sack to the ground, and each man opened his sack.
12 And he searched, beginning with the eldest and ending with the youngest. And the cup was found in Benjamin's sack.
13 Then they tore their clothes, and every man loaded his donkey, and they returned to the city.
14 When Judah and his brothers came to Joseph's house, he was still there. They fell before him to the ground.
15 Joseph said to them, "What deed is this that you have done? Do you not know that a man like me can indeed practice divination?"
16 And Judah said, "What shall we say to my lord? What shall we speak? Or how can we clear ourselves? God has found out the guilt of your servants; behold, we are my lord's servants, both we and he also in whose hand the cup has been found."
17 But he said, "Far be it from me that I should do so! Only the man in whose hand the cup was found shall be my servant. But as for you, go up in peace to your father."
18 Then Judah went up to him and said, "O my lord, please let your servant speak a word in my lord's ears, and let not your anger burn against your servant, for you are like Pharaoh himself.
19 My lord asked his servants, saying, 'Have you a father, or a brother?'
20 And we said to my lord, 'We have a father, an old man, and a young brother, the child of his old age. His brother is dead, and he alone is left of his mother's children, and his father loves him.'
21 Then you said to your servants, 'Bring him down to me, that I may set my eyes on him.'
22 We said to my lord, 'The boy cannot leave his father, for if he should leave his father, his father would die.'
23 Then you said to your servants, 'Unless your youngest brother comes down with you, you shall not see my face again.'
24 "When we went back to your servant my father, we told him the words of my lord.
25 And when our father said, 'Go again, buy us a little food,'
26 we said, 'We cannot go down. If our youngest brother goes with us, then we will go down. For we cannot see the man's face unless our youngest brother is with us.'
27 Then your servant my father said to us, 'You know that my wife bore me two sons.
28 One left me, and I said, Surely he has been torn to pieces, and I have never seen him since.
29 If you take this one also from me, and harm happens to him, you will bring down my gray hairs in evil to Sheol.'
30 "Now therefore, as soon as I come to your servant my father, and the boy is not with us, then, as his life is bound up in the boy's life,
31 as soon as he sees that the boy is not with us, he will die, and your servants will bring down the gray hairs of your servant our father with sorrow to Sheol.
32 For your servant became a pledge of safety for the boy to my father, saying, 'If I do not bring him back to you, then I shall bear the blame before my father all my life.'
33 Now therefore, please let your servant remain instead of the boy as a servant to my lord, and let the boy go back with his brothers.
34 For how can I go back to my father if the boy is not with me? I fear to see the evil that would find my father."
1 And he commanded H6680 W-VPY3MS the steward H834 RPRO of his house H1004 NMS-3MS , saying H559 L-VQFC , Fill H4390 the men H376 NMS \'s sacks H572 with food H400 NMS , as much as H834 RPRO they can H3201 carry H5375 VQFC , and put H7760 W-VQI2MS every man H376 NMS \'s money H3701 in his sack H572 \'s mouth H6310 B-CMS .
2 And put H7760 VQY2MS my cup H1375 , the silver H3701 cup H1375 , in the sack H572 \'s mouth H6310 B-CMS of the youngest H6996 D-AMS , and his corn H7668 money H3701 NMS . And he did H6213 W-VQY3MS according to the word H1697 K-NMS that H834 RPRO Joseph H3130 had spoken H1696 .
3 As soon as the morning H1242 was light H215 , the men H376 were sent away H7971 , they H1992 PPRO-3MP and their asses H2543 .
4 And when they H1992 PPRO-3MP were gone out of the city H5892 D-GFS , and not H3808 NADV yet far off H7368 , Joseph H3130 said H559 VQQ3MS unto his steward H1004 NMS-3MS , Up H6965 VQI2MS , follow H7291 after H310 PREP the men H376 ; and when thou dost overtake H5381 them , say H559 unto H413 PREP-3MS them , Wherefore H4100 L-IPRO have ye rewarded H7999 evil H7451 AFS for H8478 NMS good H2896 NFS ?
5 Is not H3808 D-NPAR this H2088 DPRO it in which H834 RPRO my lord H113 drinketh H8354 , and whereby indeed he divineth H5172 ? ye have done evil H7489 in so H834 RPRO doing H6213 .
6 And he overtook H5381 them , and he spoke H1696 W-VPY3MS unto H413 PREP-3MS them these same H428 words H1697 AMP .
7 And they said H559 W-VQY3MP unto H413 PREP-3MS him , Wherefore H4100 L-IPRO saith H1696 VPY3MS my lord H113 these H428 D-DPRO-3MP words H1697 ? God forbid H2486 IJEC-3FS that thy servants H5650 should do H6213 according to this H2088 D-PMS thing H1697 :
8 Behold H2005 IJEC , the money H3701 NMS , which H834 RPRO we found H4672 VQQ1MP in our sacks H572 \' mouths H6310 B-CMS , we brought again H7725 unto H413 PREP-2MS thee out of the land H776 M-NFS of Canaan H3667 EMS : how H349 W-IJEC then should we steal H1589 out of thy lord\'s house H1004 silver H3701 NMS or H176 CONJ gold H2091 ?
9 With H854 PREP-3MS whomsoever H834 RPRO of thy servants H5650 it be found H4672 , both let him die H4191 , and we H587 PPRO-1MP also H1571 W-CONJ will be H1961 my lord H113 \'s bondmen H5650 .
10 And he said H559 W-VQY3MS , Now H6258 ADV also H1571 CONJ let it H1931 PPRO-3MS be according unto your words H1697 : he with H854 PREP-3MS whom H834 RPRO it is found H4672 shall be H1961 VQY3MS my servant H5650 ; and ye H859 W-PPRO-2MP shall be H1961 blameless H5355 .
11 Then they speedily H4116 took down H3381 every man H376 NMS his sack H572 to the ground H776 NFS-3FS , and opened H6605 every man H376 NMS his sack H572 .
12 And he searched H2664 , and began H2490 VHQ3MS at the eldest H1419 , and left H3615 at the youngest H6996 : and the cup H1375 was found H4672 in Benjamin H1144 \'s sack H572 .
13 Then they rent H7167 their clothes H8071 , and laded H6006 every man H376 NMS his ass H2543 , and returned H7725 W-VUY3MP to the city H5892 .
14 And Judah H3063 and his brethren H251 came H935 W-VQY3MS to Joseph H3130 \'s house H1004 ; for he H1931 W-PPRO-3MS was yet H5750 there H8033 ADV : and they fell H5307 W-VQY3MP before H6440 L-CMP-3MS him on the ground H776 NFS-3FS .
15 And Joseph H3130 said H559 W-VQY3MS unto them , What H4100 IGAT deed H4639 is this H2088 D-PMS that H834 RPRO ye have done H6213 ? know H3045 ye not H3808 D-NPAR that H3588 CONJ such a man H376 NMS as I H3644 can certainly divine H5172 ?
16 And Judah H3063 said H559 W-VQY3MS , What H4100 IPRO shall we say H559 W-VQY3MS unto my lord H113 ? what H4100 IPRO shall we speak H1696 ? or how H4100 IPRO shall we clear ourselves H6663 ? God H430 D-EDP hath found out H4672 VQPMS the iniquity H5771 of thy servants H5650 : behold H2009 , we are my lord H113 \'s servants H5650 NMP , both H1571 CONJ we H587 PPRO-1MP , and he also H1571 CONJ with whom H834 RPRO the cup H1375 is found H4672 VNQ3MS .
17 And he said H559 W-VQY3MS , God forbid H2486 IJEC-3FS that I should do H6213 so H2063 DPRO : but the man H376 D-NMS in whose H834 RPRO hand H3027 B-CFS-3MS the cup H1375 is found H4672 VNQ3MS , he H1931 PPRO-3MS shall be H1961 VQY3MS my servant H5650 ; and as for you H859 W-PPRO-2MP , get you up H5927 in peace H7965 unto H413 PREP your father H1 .
18 Then Judah H3063 came near H5066 unto him H413 PREP-3MS , and said H559 W-VQY3MS , Oh H994 my lord H113 , let thy servant H5650 , I pray thee H4994 IJEC , speak H1696 VPY3MS a word H1697 NMS in my lord H113 \'s ears H241 , and let not H408 W-NPAR thine anger H639 burn H2734 against thy servant H5650 : for H3588 CONJ thou art even as H3644 Pharaoh H6547 .
19 My lord H113 asked H7592 his servants H5650 , saying H559 L-VQFC , Have H3426 I-ADV ye a father H1 NMS , or H176 CONJ a brother H251 ?
20 And we said H559 unto H413 PREP my lord H113 , We have H3426 ADV a father H1 NMS , an old man H2205 PFS , and a child H3206 W-NMS of his old age H2208 , a little one H6996 ; and his brother H251 is dead H4191 , and he H1931 PPRO-3MS alone H905 L-CMS-3MS is left H3498 of his mother H517 , and his father H1 loveth H157 him .
21 And thou saidst H559 W-VQY3FS unto H413 PREP thy servants H5650 , Bring him down H3381 unto H413 PREP me , that I may set H7760 mine eyes H5869 CMS-1MS upon H5921 him .
22 And we said H559 unto H413 PREP my lord H113 , The lad H5288 cannot H3808 NADV leave H5800 his father H1 CMS-3MS : for if he should leave H5800 his father H1 CMS-3MS , his father would die H4191 .
23 And thou saidst H559 W-VQY3FS unto H413 PREP thy servants H5650 , Except H518 PART your youngest H6996 D-AMS brother H251 come down H3381 with H854 PART-2MP you , ye shall see H7200 L-VQFC my face H6440 no H3808 NADV more H3254 .
24 And it came to pass H1961 W-VQY3MS when H3588 CONJ we came up H5927 unto H413 PREP thy servant H5650 my father H1 CMS-1MS , we told H5046 him the words H1697 CMP of my lord H113 .
25 And our father H1 said H559 W-VQY3MS , Go again H7725 , and buy H7666 us a little H4592 AMS food H400 NMS .
26 And we said H559 , We cannot H3808 NADV go down H3381 : if H518 PART our youngest H6996 D-AMS brother H251 be H3426 PART with H854 PREP-1MP us , then will we go down H3381 : for H3588 CONJ we may H3201 not H3808 NADV see H7200 L-VQFC the man H376 D-NMS \'s face H6440 CMP , except H369 our youngest H6996 D-AMS brother H251 be with H854 us .
27 And thy servant H5650 my father H1 CMS-1MS said H559 W-VQY3MS unto H413 us , Ye H859 PPRO-2MS know H3045 that H3588 CONJ my wife H802 bore H3205 VQQ3FS me two H8147 ONUM sons :
28 And the one H259 D-AMS went out H3318 W-VQY3MS from me , and I said H559 W-VQY1MS , Surely H389 ADV he is torn in pieces H2963 ; and I saw H7200 him not H3808 W-NPAR since H5704 PREP :
29 And if ye take H3947 this H2088 DPRO also H1571 CONJ from M-PREP me H6440 NMP-1MS , and mischief H611 befall H7136 him , ye shall bring down H3381 my gray hairs H7872 with sorrow H7451 to the grave H7585 .
30 Now H6258 W-ADV therefore when I come H935 to H413 PREP thy servant H5650 my father H1 CMS-1MS , and the lad H5288 be not H369 with H854 PREP-1MP us ; seeing that his life H5315 W-CFS-3MS is bound up H7194 in the lad\'s life H5315 ;
31 It shall come to pass H1961 W-VQQ3MS , when he seeth H7200 that H3588 CONJ the lad H5288 is not H369 NPAR with us , that he will die H4191 : and thy servants H5650 shall bring down H3381 the gray hairs H7872 of thy servant H5650 our father H1 with sorrow H3015 to the grave H7585 .
32 For H3588 CONJ thy servant H5650 became surety H6148 VQQ3MS for the lad H5288 unto H5973 M-PREP my father H1 CMS-1MS , saying H559 L-VQFC , If H518 PART I bring H935 him not H3808 NADV unto H413 PREP-2MS thee , then I shall bear the blame H2398 to my father H1 forever H3117 D-NMP .
33 Now H6258 W-ADV therefore , I pray thee H4994 IJEC , let thy servant H5650 abide H3427 instead of H8478 NMS the lad H5288 a bondman H5650 NMS to my lord H113 ; and let the lad H5288 go up H5927 with H5973 PREP his brethren H251 .
34 For H3588 CONJ how H349 shall I go up H5927 to H413 PREP my father H1 CMS-1MS , and the lad H5288 be not H369 with H854 PREP-1MS me ? lest peradventure H6435 CONJ I see H7200 VQY1MS the evil H7451 that H834 RPRO shall come on VQY3MS my father H1 .
