¹Siis ta käskis oma kojaülemat, öeldes: 'Täida meeste kotid viljaga, nii palju kui nad jaksavad kanda, ja pane igamehe raha ta koti suhu.

¹And he commanded him who was over his house, saying, Fill the men's sacks with food, as much as they can carry; and put every man's money in the mouth of his sack.

²Ja minu karikas, see hõbekarikas, pane noorima venna koti suhu koos ta viljarahaga!' Ja ta tegi, nagu Joosep käskis.

²And put my cup, the silver cup, in the mouth of the sack of the youngest, and his grain-money. And he did according to the word of Joseph which he had spoken.

³Hommikul, kui läks valgeks, lasti minema mehed ja nende eeslid.

³In the morning, when it was light, the men were sent away, they and their asses.

⁴Kui nad olid linnast lahkunud ega olnud veel kaugele jõudnud, ütles Joosep oma kojaülemale: 'Võta kätte, aja mehi taga, ja kui oled nad tabanud, siis ütle neile: Miks tasute head kurjaga?

⁴They were gone out of the city, [and] not [yet] far off, when Joseph said to him who was over his house, Up! follow after the men; and when thou overtakest them, thou shalt say to them, Why have ye rewarded evil for good?

⁵Eks see ole see, millest mu isand joob ja millest ta endeid otsib? Olete käitunud halvasti, et tegite nõnda!'

⁵Is not this [it] in which my lord drinks, and in which indeed he divines? Ye have done evil [in] what ye have done.

⁶Ja kui ta nad tabas, siis ta rääkis neile needsamad sõnad.

⁶And he overtook them, and he spoke to them these words.

⁷Aga nad vastasid temale: 'Miks räägib mu isand nõndaviisi? Su sulastele oleks teotuseks nõnda teha.

⁷And they said to him, Why does my lord speak such words as these? Far be it from thy servants to do such a thing!

⁸Vaata, raha, mis me leidsime oma kottide suust, tõime sulle tagasi Kaananimaalt. Kuidas võiksime siis varastada su isanda kojast hõbedat või kulda?

⁸Behold, the money that we found in our sacks' mouths we have brought again to thee from the land of Canaan; and how should we steal out of thy lord's house silver or gold?

⁹Kelle juurest su sulaste hulgast see leitakse, surgu, ja me teised jääme su isandale orjadeks!'

⁹With whomsoever of thy servants it is found, let him die; and we also will be my lord's bondmen.

¹⁰Siis ta ütles: 'Olgu see nüüd ka nõnda teie sõnade järgi! Kelle juurest see leitakse, jäägu mulle sulaseks, ja te teised olete süüta!'

¹⁰And he said, Now also [let] it [be] according to your words: let him with whom it is found be my bondman, but ye shall be blameless.

¹¹Ja nad tõttasid ning tõstsid igaüks oma koti maha ja iga mees tegi oma koti lahti.

¹¹And they hasted and laid down every man his sack on the ground, and opened every man his sack.

¹²Ja ta otsis nad läbi, alates vanemast ja lõpetades nooremaga - ja karikas leiti Benjamini kotist.

¹²And he searched carefully: he began at the eldest, and ended at the youngest; and the cup was found in Benjamin's sack.

¹³Siis nad käristasid oma riided lõhki, iga mees pani oma eeslile koorma selga ja nad läksid tagasi linna.

¹³Then they rent their clothes, and loaded every man his ass, and they returned to the city.

¹⁴Ja Juuda läks koos oma vendadega Joosepi kotta, kes oli alles seal, ja nad heitsid maha tema ette.

¹⁴And Judah and his brethren came to Joseph's house; and he was still there; and they fell down before him to the ground.

¹⁵Ja Joosep ütles neile: 'Mis tegu see on, mis te olete teinud? Eks te tea, et niisugune mees nagu mina oskab endeid seletada?'

¹⁵And Joseph said to them, What deed is this which ye have done? Did ye not know that such a man as I can certainly divine?

¹⁶Siis vastas Juuda: 'Mida me oma isandale ütleme? Kuidas peame rääkima ja kuidas endid õigustama? Jumal on avastanud su sulaste süü. Vaata, me jääme oma isandale sulaseiks, niihästi meie kui see, kelle käest karikas leiti.'

¹⁶And Judah said, What shall we say to my lord? what shall we speak, and how justify ourselves? God has found out the iniquity of thy servants; behold, we are my lord's bondmen, both we, and he in whose hand the cup has been found.

¹⁷Aga ta ütles: 'Ei tule mulle mõttessegi seda teha! Mees, kelle käest karikas leiti, peab jääma mulle sulaseks, te teised aga minge rahuga oma isa juurde!'

¹⁷And he said, Far be it from me to do so! The man in whose hand the cup has been found, he shall be my bondman; but as for you, go up in peace to your father.

¹⁸Siis astus Juuda tema juurde ja ütles: 'Mu isand, luba ometi oma sulast rääkida üks sõna mu isanda kõrva ees ja su viha ärgu süttigu põlema oma sulase vastu, sest sina oled nagu vaarao ise!

¹⁸Then Judah came near to him, and said, Ah! 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.

¹⁹Mu isand küsis oma sulaseilt, öeldes: On teil isa või mõni vend?

¹⁹My lord asked his servants, saying, Have ye a father, or a brother?

²⁰Ja meie vastasime oma isandale: Meil on vana isa ja üks nooruk, ta vanas eas sündinud, alles noor; aga selle vend on surnud ja ta on üksi oma emast järele jäänud, ja ta isa armastab teda.

²⁰And we said to my lord, We have an aged father, and a child born to him in his old age, [yet] young; and his brother is dead, and he alone is left of his mother; and his father loves him.

²¹Ja sa ütlesid oma sulaseile: Tooge ta minu juurde, et ma näeksin teda oma silmaga!

²¹And thou saidst unto thy servants, Bring him down to me, that I may set mine eye on him.

²²Ja me vastasime oma isandale: Nooruk ei või isast lahkuda. Kui ta lahkuks oma isast, siis see sureks.

²²And we said to my lord, The youth cannot leave his father: if he should leave his father, [his father] would die.

²³Ja sa ütlesid oma sulaseile: Kui teie noorim vend ei tule koos teiega, siis te ei saa enam näha mu nägu.

²³And thou saidst to thy servants, Unless your youngest brother come down with you, ye shall see my face no more.

²⁴Ja kui me läksime su sulase, meie isa juurde ja andsime temale teada oma isanda sõnad,

²⁴And it came to pass when we came up to thy servant my father, we told him the words of my lord.

²⁵siis ütles meie isa: Minge jälle tagasi, ostke meile pisut leiba!

²⁵And our father said, Go again, buy us a little food.

²⁶Aga me vastasime: Me ei või minna. Kui meie noorim vend on koos meiega, siis me läheme, sest me ei saa näha selle mehe nägu, kui meie noorim vend ei ole koos meiega.

²⁶But we said, We cannot go down: if our youngest brother be with us, then will we go down; for we cannot see the man's face unless our youngest brother is with us.

²⁷Ja su sulane, minu isa, ütles meile: Te teate, et mu naine on mulle kaks poega ilmale toonud.

²⁷And thy servant my father said to us, Ye know that my wife bore me two [sons];

²⁸Aga üks läks mu juurest ära ja ma ütlesin: Ta on tõesti maha murtud! Ja ma pole teda tänini enam näinud.

²⁸and the one went out from me, and I said, He must certainly have been torn in pieces; and I have not seen him [again] hitherto.

²⁹Kui te nüüd võtate ka selle mu silma alt ja temaga juhtub õnnetus, siis saadate mu hallid juuksed kurvastusega hauda.

²⁹And if ye take this one also from me, and mischief should befall him, ye will bring down my grey hairs with misery to Sheol.

³⁰Ja kui ma nüüd tuleksin su sulase, oma isa juurde ja koos meiega ei oleks poiss, kelle hingesse tema hing on kiindunud,

³⁰And now, when I come to thy servant my father, and the lad is not with us, -- seeing that his life is bound up with his life,

³¹ja kui ta siis näeb, et poissi ei ole, ta sureb ja su sulased on sinu sulase, meie isa hallid juuksed saatnud murega hauda,

³¹it will come to pass when he sees that the lad is not [there], that he will die; and thy servants will bring down the grey hairs of thy servant our father with sorrow to Sheol.

³²sest su sulane on poisile käemeheks mu isa juures, kuna ma olen öelnud: Kui ma ei too teda sinu juurde, siis ma jään oma isa ees alatiseks süüdlaseks.

³²For thy servant became surety for the lad to my father, saying, If I bring him not to thee, then I shall be guilty toward my father all my days.

³³Ja nüüd siis jäägu su sulane poisi asemel sulaseks mu isandale ja poiss mingu koos oma vendadega!

³³And now, let thy servant stay, I pray thee, instead of the lad a bondman to my lord, and let the lad go up with his brethren;

³⁴Sest kuidas võiksin minna oma isa juurde, kui poiss ei oleks koos minuga? Et ma ei näeks seda õnnetust, mis juhtub mu isaga!'

³⁴for how should I go up to my father if the lad were not with me? -- lest I see the evil that would come on my father.
