¹

And Jacob having seen that there was a sale of corn in Egypt, said to his sons, Why are ye indolent?

¹

Видњвъ же і^а'ковъ ја^ко кђпля е^сть пшени'цы въ е^гљ=птњ рече сн~омᲆ свои^мъ. Почто` нерадите`,

²

Behold, I have heard that there is corn in Egypt; go down thither, and buy for us a little food, that we may live, and not die.

²

с^е слы'шахомъ ја^ко пшени'ца е^сть въ е^гљ=птњ, и^дњ те та'мо кђпите намъ мало пи'ща да жи'ви бђдемъ, и^ не ё^мремъ”

³

And the ten brethren of Joseph went down to buy corn out of Egypt.

³

І$ и^до'ша бра'тїя і^ѓ'сифля десять кђпити пшени'цы въ е^гљ=пеT

⁴

But Jacob sent not Benjamin, the brother of Joseph, with his brethren; for he said, Lest, haply, disease befal him.

⁴

вениа^ми'на же брата і^ѓ'сифова не пђсти` съ бра'тїею е^го, вњща б^о е^гда` слђчи'тся на пђти е^мђ ꙁл^о”

⁵

And the sons of Israel came to buy with those that came, for the famine was in the land of Chanaan.

⁵

Прїидо'ша же сн~ове і^и^лв~и, кђпити съ приходя'щими, бя'ше б^о гла'дъ въ все'и ꙁемли ханаа'нъстњй”

⁶

And Joseph was ruler of the land; he sold to all the people of the land. And the brethren of Joseph, having come, did reverence to him, bowing with the face to the ground.

⁶

І$ѓ'сифъ же бя'ше кня'ꙁь все'и ꙁемли`, сїи` продаја%ше всњмъ лю'демъ насе'лнымъ” Прїидоша же бра'тїя і^ѓ'сифовы, и^ поклони'шася е^мђ ни'ць до ꙁемля`,

⁷

And when Joseph saw his brethren, he knew them, and estranged himself from them, and spoke hard words to them; and said to them, Whence are ye come? And they said, Out of the land of Chanaan, to buy food.

⁷

ви'дњвъ же і^ѓ'сифъ бра'тїю свою`, и^ позна` я& и^ эTмета'шеся и^хъ, и^ гл~аше и^мъ поро'ко” Рече же и^мъ эTкђдђ хо'дите, сїи же рњша эT ꙁемля` ханаан#скїа, кђпити пи'ща”

⁸

And Joseph knew his brethren, but they knew not him.

⁸

Позна же і^ѓ'сифъ бра'тїю свою, сїи же не поꙁна'ша е^го.

⁹

And Joseph remembered his dream, which he saw; and he said to them, Ye are spies; to observe the marks of the land are ye come.

⁹

и^ помянђ` і^ѓ'сифъ сны своя` ја^же ви'дњ, и^ рече и^мъ прелага'тая е^сте`. сᲆгляда'ти пђтїи ꙁемля` сїя прїйдосте” Сїи же рᲇша

¹⁰

But they said, Nay, Sir, we thy servants are come to buy food;

¹⁰

н^и гдsне раби` твои` кђпи'ти пища прїидо'ша,

¹¹

we are all sons of one man; we are peaceable, thy servants are not spies.

¹¹

вс^и бо е^смы` сн~ове е^ді'ного мђжа ми'рницы е^смы`, не сTђ раби` ᲄвои` прелага'таи`”

¹²

And he said to them, Nay, but ye are come to observe the marks of the land.

¹²

Реq же иM н^и но пђти` съглядати прїидо'сте из# ꙁемля' сея`”

¹³

And they said, We thy servants are twelve brethren, in the land of Chanaan; and, behold, the youngest is with our father to-day, but the other one is not.

¹³

Сїи же рᲇша дв^анадесяT е^смы братїа, и^ раби` твои` въ земли` ханаа'ни, и^ с^е мнїи насъ ё^ эTц~а днесь е^сть, а^ дрђга'го нᲇсть.

¹⁴

And Joseph said to them, This is it that I spoke to you, saying, ye are spies;

¹⁴

рече же и^мъ і^ѓ'сифъ с^е е^сть. е^же реко'хъ вамъ гл~я, ја%ко прелага'таи` е^сте,

¹⁵

herein shall ye be manifested; by the health of Pharao, ye shall not depart hence, unless your younger brother come hither.

¹⁵

си'м ся ја^ви'сте, тако м^и ꙁдра'вїя фараѓ'ня, не и^ꙁы'дете эTсю'дђ, а%ще не прїидетъ бра'тъ вашъ ме'ншїи сњмо”

¹⁶

Send one of you, and take your brother; and go ye to prison, till your words be clear, whether ye speak the truth or not; but, if not, by the health of Pharao, verily ye are spies.

¹⁶

Пошлњте эT себе` е^ді'наго и^ пои'мњте бра'та ва'ю, а^ вы` ждњте до'ндеже ја%вњ бђдетъ гл~ъ ваj а%ще и^стинъствђ'ете и^л^и ни`, а%ще ли т^ота'ко ми ꙁдра'вїя фараѓ'ня ё^бо прелагата'и е^сте,

¹⁷

And he put them in prison three days.

¹⁷

и^ даде` я& поD стра'жђ, г~ дн~и”

¹⁸

And he said to them on the third day, This do, and ye shall live, for I fear God.

¹⁸

Рече же и^мᲆ въ дн~ь третїи с^е сътвори'те да жи'ви бђдете б~а бо ся а%ꙁъ бою`”

¹⁹

If ye be peaceable, let one of your brethren be detained in prison; but go ye, and carry back the corn ye have purchased.

¹⁹

А$ще ми'рницы е^сте братъ вашъ да ся дрьжи'тъ в темни'цы, вы' же шеDше донеси'те кђ'пленђю пшени'цђ

²⁰

And bring your younger brother to me, and your words shall be believed; but, if not, ye shall die. And they did so.

²⁰

а^ брата ва'ю ме'ншаго приведњте къ мн^њ, и^ вњрна бђдетᲆ рњ'чь ваша, а^ще л^и ни` ᲄо ё%мрете” Съᲄвори'ша же та'ко,

²¹

And each said to his brother, Yes, indeed, for we are in fault concerning our brother, when we disregarded the anguish of his soul, when he besought us, and we hearkened not to him; and therefore has this affliction come upon us.

²¹

и^ вᲇща` ко'ждо къ бра'тђ свое^мђ, въ грњсњ б^о е^смы` брата ради на'шего, ја%ко презрњхомъ скръбњ'нїе дш~а е^го, е^гда` моля'шеся нам#, и^ не послђш'ахомъ е^го. сего` ра'ди, прїиде на' ны вс^е скръбњ'нїе,

²²

And Ruben answered them, saying, Did I not speak to you, saying, Hurt not the boy, and ye heard me not? and, behold, his blood is required.

²²

эTвњща'в же рђви'мᲆ рече и^мъ, не реко'х ли ва'мъ гл~я. не преѓ^би'дњте дњтища. и^ не послђшасте мене`, и^ с^е кро'вь е^го вᲆꙁыска'е^тся,

²³

But they knew not that Joseph understood them; for there was an interpreter between them.

²³

сїи же не вњ'дяхђ ја%ко і^ѓ'сифᲆ раꙁђмњ'етᲆ толмача` б^о не бя'ше меж'дђ и%ми”

²⁴

And Joseph turned away from them, and wept; and again he came to them, and spoke to them; and he took Symeon from them, and bound him before their eyes.

²⁴

эTврати' же ся эT ни'хъ и^ пропла'кася і^ѓ'сифъ, и^ па'ки вᲆзврати'ся рече и^мъ, поя` симеѓ'на эT ниX и^ свяꙁа и& пред ни'ми”

²⁵

And Joseph gave orders to fill their vessels with corn, and to return their money to each into his sack, and to give them provision for the way; and it was so done to them.

²⁵

И$ повелњ` і^ѓ'сифъ насы'пати съсђ'ды и^хᲆ пшени'ца, и^ въꙁврати'ти цњ'нђ и^мъ, комђж'до въ вре'тище свое` и^ въда'ст# бра'шно и^мъ на пђть, и^ бы'сть иM”

²⁶

And having put the corn on the asses, they departed thence.

²⁶

Въз'ложи'ша пшени'цђ на ѓ^слы` своя` и эTидо'ша эTтђдђ”

²⁷

And one having opened his sack to give his asses fodder, at the place where they rested, saw also his bundle of money, for it was on the mouth of his sack.

²⁷

эTрњши'в же и^х# е^ді'нъ, вре'тище свое, напитаᲄи ѓ^сля'та своя`, и^дњже ста'ша видњ` ё%золъ сребра` свое^го, въверхђ ё^стїа вре'тищнаго”

²⁸

And he said to his brethren, My money has been restored to me, and behold this is in my sack. And their heart was wonder-struck, and they were troubled, saying one to another, What is this that God has done to us?

²⁸

И$ рече братїи свое'й, възвраще'но ми еs сребро`, и^ с^е е^сть въ вре'тищи мое^мъ” И$ ё^жасе'ся срDце и^хъ и^ възмято'шася гл~юще, чт^о се` сътвори` б~ъ намъ”

²⁹

And they came to their father, Jacob, into the land of Chanaan, and reported to him all that had happened to them, saying,

²⁹

Прїидо'ша же къ і^а'ковђ эTц~ђ свое^мђ въ зе'млю ханаа'ню, и^ повњда'ша е^мђ вс^е слђ'чшее^ся и^мъ гл~юще”

³⁰

The man, the lord of the land, spoke harsh words to us, and put us in prison as spies of the land.

³⁰

Гл~а мђжъ насе'лникъ гн~ь намъ поро'ко, и^ въврьже н^ы в темни'цђ, а^ки съгляда'юще ꙁемля` на'ша

³¹

And we said to him, We are men of peace, we are not spies.

³¹

прїидо'сте” Гл~ахомъ е^мђ ми'рницы е^смы, а^ нњсмы прелага'таи`,

³²

We are twelve brethren, sons of our father; one is not, and the youngest is with his father to-day in the land of Chanaan.

³²

дв^ана'десять братїа е^смы сн~ове е^ді'наh эTц~а нашего. і^ е^ді'наго нњсть, а^ мнїи ё^ эTц~а е^сть дне'сь в ꙁемли` ханаа'ни”

³³

And the man, the lord of the land, said to us, Herein shall I know that ye are peaceable; leave one brother here with me, and having taken the corn ye have purchased for your family, depart.

³³

Рече же намъ мђжъ гн~ь насе'лникъ, по семђ` ё^вњмъ ја%ко ми'рницы е^сте`, брата е^ді'наго ѓ^ста'вите ё^ мене`, а^ цњны ва'ша и^ пшени'цђ въꙁе'мше до до'мђ вашего и^дњте”

³⁴

And bring to me your younger brother; then I shall know that ye are not spies, but that ye are men of peace: and I will restore you your brother, and ye shall trade in the land.

³⁴

Приведњте же брата ва'шего меншаго къ мн^њ, и^ ё^вњмъ ја%ко нњсть прелага'таи`, н^о ми'рницы е^сте`, и^ брата ва'шего вамъ дамъ и^ кђ'плю ᲄвори'те в ꙁемли`”

³⁵

And it came to pass as they were emptying their sacks, there was each man's bundle of money in his sack; and they and their father saw their bundles of money, and they were afraid.

³⁵

Бысть же е^гда` вы'сыпахђ вре'тища своя`, и^ бя'ше ё%ꙁолъ сребра` въ вре'тищи кое^го'ждо” И$ ви'дњвше ё%злы сребра` иX сами и^ эTц~ъ и^хъ, и^ ё^боја%шася”

³⁶

And their father Jacob said to them, Ye have bereaved me. Joseph is not, Symeon is not, and will ye take Benjamin? all these things have come upon me.

³⁶

И$ рече и^мъ і^а'ковъ эTц~ъ и^хъ, мене` бесча'да сътвори'сте, і^ѓсифа нњсᲄь симеѓ'на нњсть и^ венїа^ми'на пои^мᲇте, на' мя бысть с^е все`” РђвиM

³⁷

And Ruben spoke to his father, saying, Slay my two sons, if I bring him not to thee; give him into my hand, and I will bring him back to thee.

³⁷

же рече эTц~ђ свое^мђ гл~я. сн~а моя` ѓ'ба ё^бїи, а%ще не приведђ` е^го к тебњ`, да'ждь е^го мн^њ въ рђцњ а%ꙁ же приведђ и& к тебњ”

³⁸

But he said, My son shall not go down with you, because his brother is dead, and he only has been left; and suppose it shall come to pass that he is afflicted by the way by which ye go, then ye shall bring down my old age with sorrow to Hades.

³⁸

Се'и же рече не' идетъ сн~ъ мой с вами, ја%ко бра'тъ е^мђ ё^мре. сїи же е^ді'нъ ѓ^ста`, е^гда ся е^мђ лђчи'тъ ꙁл^о на пђти`, на'ньже а^ще пои'дете, и^ прово'дите ста'рость мою` съ печа'лїю въ а^дъ”
