¹Tu sa Jozef nemohol ďalej zdržať ani vzhľadom na všetkých, ktorí stáli pri ňom, a zvolal: Vyveďte všetkých ľudí von odo mňa! A nestál nikto s ním, keď sa dal Jozef vo znanie svojim bratom.

¹And Joseph hath not been able to refrain himself before all those standing by him, and he calleth, `Put out every man from me;` and no man hath stood with him when Joseph maketh himself known unto his brethren,

²A vypukol v hlasitý plač. A počuli to Egypťania, a počul dom faraonov.

²and he giveth forth his voice in weeping, and the Egyptians hear, and the house of Pharaoh heareth.

³A Jozef riekol svojim bratom: Ja som Jozef! Či ešte žije môj otec? A jeho bratia mu nemohli odpovedať, lebo sa zdesili pred ním.

³And Joseph saith unto his brethren, `I [am] Joseph, is my father yet alive?` and his brethren have not been able to answer him, for they have been troubled at his presence.

⁴Ale Jozef riekol svojim bratom: Nože pristúpte ku mne! A pristúpili. A riekol: Ja som Jozef, váš brat, ktorého ste predali do Egypta.

⁴And Joseph saith unto his brethren, `Come nigh unto me, I pray you,` and they come nigh; and he saith, `I [am] Joseph, your brother, whom ye sold into Egypt;

⁵Ale teraz sa netrápte nad tým, ani nech nie je vo vašich očiach hnevu, že ste ma sem predali, lebo pre zachovanie vášho i môjho života ma poslal Bôh pred vami.

⁵and now, be not grieved, nor let it be displeasing in your eyes that ye sold me hither, for to preserve life hath God sent me before you.

⁶Lebo toto sú ešte len dva roky, odkedy je hlad v zemi, a ešte bude päť rokov, čo sa nebude ani orať ani žať.

⁶`Because these two years the famine [is] in the heart of the land, and yet [are] five years, [in] which there is neither ploughing nor harvest;

⁷A Bôh ma poslal pred vami položiť vám stranou zbytok na zemi a zachovať vám ho pri živote. Bolo to na veľkú záchranu.

⁷and God sendeth me before you, to place of you a remnant in the land, and to give life to you by a great escape;

⁸A tak teraz nie vy ste ma sem poslali, ale Bôh, a učinil ma otcom faraonovi a pánom celému jeho domu a panovníkom v celej zemi Egyptskej.

⁸and now, ye — ye have not sent me hither, but God, and He doth set me for a father to Pharaoh, and for lord to all his house, and ruler over all the land of Egypt.

⁹Ponáhľajte sa a iďte hore k môjmu otcovi a poviete mu: Takto hovorí tvoj syn Jozef: Bôh ma učinil pánom celého Egypta. Poď dolu ku mne a nemeškaj!

⁹`Haste, and go up unto my father, then ye have said to him, Thus said Joseph thy son, God hath set me for lord to all Egypt; come down unto me, stay not,

¹⁰A budeš bývať v zemi Gózena a budeš blízko mňa, ty i tvoji synovia i synovia tvojich synov i tvoje drobné stádo i tvoj statok i všetko, čo máš.

¹⁰and thou hast dwelt in the land of Goshen, and been near unto me, thou and thy sons, and thy son`s sons, and thy flock, and thy herd, and all that thou hast,

¹¹Tam ťa budem zaopatrovať potravou, lebo bude ešte päť rokov hladu, aby si neprišiel na mizinu ty i tvoj dom i všetko, čo je tvoje.

¹¹and I have nourished thee there — for yet [are] five years of famine — lest thou become poor, thou and thy household, and all that thou hast.

¹²A hľa, vaše oči vidia aj oči môjho brata Benjamina, že vám to hovoria moje ústa.

¹²`And lo, your eyes are seeing, and the eyes of my brother Benjamin, that [it is] my mouth which is speaking unto you;

¹³A povedzte môjmu otcovi o všetkej mojej sláve tu v Egypte a o všetkom, čo ste videli, a tedy ponáhľajte sa a dopravte môjho otca sem dolu.

¹³and ye have declared to my father all my honour in Egypt, and all that ye have seen, and ye have hasted, and have brought down my father hither.`

¹⁴A padol Benjaminovi, svojmu bratovi, okolo krku a plakal, i Benjamin plakal na jeho krku.

¹⁴And he falleth on the neck of Benjamin his brother, and weepeth, and Benjamin hath wept on his neck;

¹⁵A bozkal všetkých svojich bratov a plakal nad nimi. A potom už hovorili jeho bratia s ním.

¹⁵and he kisseth all his brethren, and weepeth over them; and afterwards have his brethren spoken with him.

¹⁶Potom sa počula zvesť o tom v dome faraonovom, že vraj prišli bratia Jozefovi, a ľúbilo sa to faraonovi i jeho služobníkom.

¹⁶And the sound hath been heard in the house of Pharaoh, saying, `Come have the brethren of Joseph;` and it is good in the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of his servants,

¹⁷A faraon riekol Jozefovi: Povedz svojim bratom: Urobte toto: Naložte na svoje hovädá, čo potrebujete, a iďte, vráťte sa do Kananejskej zeme

¹⁷and Pharaoh saith unto Joseph, `Say unto thy brethren, This do ye: lade your beasts, and go, enter ye the land of Canaan,

¹⁸a vezmite svojho otca a svoje domácnosti a prijdite ku mne, a dám vám dobré Egyptskej zeme, a jedzte tuk zeme.

¹⁸and take your father, and your households, and come unto me, and I give to you the good of the land of Egypt, and eat ye the fat of the land.

¹⁹A tebe sa prikazuje: Toto urobte: vezmite si z Egyptskej zeme vozy pre svoje drobné deti a pre svoje ženy a vezmete svojho otca a prijdete!

¹⁹`Yea, thou — thou hast been commanded: this do ye, take for yourselves out of the land of Egypt, waggons for your infants, and for your wives, and ye have brought your father, and come;

²⁰A nech vám je nie ľúto pri pohľade na váš nábytok, lebo dobré celej Egyptskej zeme je vaše.

²⁰and your eye hath no pity on your vessels, for the good of all the land of Egypt [is] yours.`

²¹A synovia Izraelovi urobili tak. A Jozef im dal vozy podľa rozkazu faraonovho a dal im aj potravy na cestu.

²¹And the sons of Israel do so, and Joseph giveth waggons to them by the command of Pharaoh, and he giveth to them provision for the way;

²²A každému z nich dal po dvoje šiat na premenu, ale Benjaminovi dal tristo striebra a pätoro slávnostných šiat na premenu.

²²to all of them hath he given — to each changes of garments, and to Benjamin he hath given three hundred silverlings, and five changes of garments;

²³A svojmu otcovi poslal podľa toho: desať oslov, ktorí niesli z dobrých vecí Egypta, a desať oslíc, ktoré niesly obilie a chlieb a pokrm jeho otcovi na cestu.

²³and to his father he hath sent thus: ten asses bearing of the good things of Egypt, and ten she-asses bearing corn and bread, even food for his father for the way.

²⁴A poslal svojich bratov a išli. A riekol im: Nevaďte sa na ceste!

²⁴And he sendeth his brethren away, and they go; and he saith unto them, `Be not angry in the way.`

²⁵A tak odišli z Egypta a prišli hore do Kananejskej zeme k Jakobovi, svojmu otcovi.

²⁵And they go up out of Egypt, and come in to the land of Canaan, unto Jacob their father,

²⁶A zvestovali mu a riekli: Jozef ešte žije a panuje v celej Egyptskej zemi! Ale jeho srdce zmeravelo, lebo im neveril.

²⁶and they declare to him, saying, `Joseph [is] yet alive,` and that he [is] ruler over all the land of Egypt; and his heart ceaseth, for he hath not given credence to them.

²⁷A rozprávali mu všetky slová Jozefove, ktoré im hovoril. No, keď potom videl vozy, ktoré poslal Jozef, aby ho odviezli, ožil duch Jakoba, ich otca.

²⁷And they speak unto him all the words of Joseph, which he hath spoken unto them, and he seeth the waggons which Joseph hath sent to bear him away, and live doth the spirit of Jacob their father;

²⁸A Izrael povedal: To je dosť. Jozef, môj syn, ešte žije. Pojdem a uvidím ho, prv ako zomriem.

²⁸and Israel saith, `Enough! Joseph my son [is] yet alive; I go and see him before I die.`
