| 44 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, | The missing cup. Gn.44.1-17 | וַיְצַו אֶת־אֲשֶׁר עַל־בֵּיתֹו לֵאמֹר מַלֵּא אֶת־אַמְתְּחֹת הָאֲנָשִׁים אֹכֶל כַּאֲשֶׁר יוּכְלוּן שְׂאֵת וְשִׂים כֶּסֶף־אִישׁ בְּפִי אַמְתַּחְתֹּו׃ |
|
| 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. | | וְאֶת־גְּבִיעִי גְּבִיעַ הַכֶּסֶף תָּשִׂים בְּפִי אַמְתַּחַת הַקָּטֹן וְאֵת כֶּסֶף שִׁבְרֹו וַיַּעַשׂ כִּדְבַר יֹוסֵף אֲשֶׁר דִּבֵּר׃ |
|
| 3 | As soon as the morning was light, the men were sent away with their asses. | | הַבֹּקֶר אֹור וְהָאֲנָשִׁים שֻׁלְּחוּ הֵמָּה וַחֲמֹרֵיהֶם׃ |
|
| 4 | When they had gone but a short distance from the city, Joseph said to his steward, "Up, follow after the men; and when you overtake them, say to them, 'Why have you returned evil for good? Why have you stolen my silver cup? | | הֵם יָצְאוּ אֶת־הָעִיר לֹא הִרְחִיקוּ וְיֹוסֵף אָמַר לַאֲשֶׁר עַל־בֵּיתֹו קוּם רְדֹף אַחֲרֵי הָאֲנָשִׁים וְהִשַּׂגְתָּם וְאָמַרְתָּ אֲלֵהֶם לָמָּה שִׁלַּמְתֶּם רָעָה תַּחַת טֹובָה׃ |
|
| 5 | Is it not from this that my lord drinks, and by this that he divines? You have done wrong in so doing.' " | | הֲלֹוא זֶה אֲשֶׁר יִשְׁתֶּה אֲדֹנִי בֹּו וְהוּא נַחֵשׁ יְנַחֵשׁ בֹּו הֲרֵעֹתֶם אֲשֶׁר עֲשִׂיתֶם׃ |
|
| 6 | When he overtook them, he spoke to them these words. | | וַיַּשִּׂגֵם וַיְדַבֵּר אֲלֵהֶם אֶת־הַדְּבָרִים הָאֵלֶּה׃ |
|
| 7 | They said to him, "Why does my lord speak such words as these? Far be it from your servants that they should do such a thing! | | וַיֹּאמְרוּ אֵלָיו לָמָּה יְדַבֵּר אֲדֹנִי כַּדְּבָרִים הָאֵלֶּה חָלִילָה לַעֲבָדֶיךָ מֵעֲשֹׂות כַּדָּבָר הַזֶּה׃ |
|
| 8 | Behold, the money which we found in the mouth of our sacks, we brought back to you from the land of Canaan; how then should we steal silver or gold from your lord's house? | | הֵן כֶּסֶף אֲשֶׁר מָצָאנוּ בְּפִי אַמְתְּחֹתֵינוּ הֱשִׁיבֹנוּ אֵלֶיךָ מֵאֶרֶץ כְּנָעַן וְאֵיךְ נִגְנֹב מִבֵּית אֲדֹנֶיךָ כֶּסֶף אֹו זָהָב׃ |
|
| 9 | With whomever of your servants it be found, let him die, and we also will be my lord's slaves." | | אֲשֶׁר יִמָּצֵא אִתֹּו מֵעֲבָדֶיךָ וָמֵת וְגַם־אֲנַחְנוּ נִהְיֶה לַאדֹנִי לַעֲבָדִים׃ |
|
| 10 | He said, "Let it be as you say: he with whom it is found shall be my slave, and the rest of you shall be blameless." | | וַיֹּאמֶר גַּם־עַתָּה כְדִבְרֵיכֶם כֶּן־הוּא אֲשֶׁר יִמָּצֵא אִתֹּו יִהְיֶה־לִּי עָבֶד וְאַתֶּם תִּהְיוּ נְקִיִּם׃ |
|
| 11 | Then every man quickly lowered his sack to the ground, and every man opened his sack. | | וַיְמַהֲרוּ וַיֹּורִדוּ אִישׁ אֶת־אַמְתַּחְתֹּו אָרְצָה וַיִּפְתְּחוּ אִישׁ אַמְתַּחְתֹּו׃ |
|
| 12 | And he searched, beginning with the eldest and ending with the youngest; and the cup was found in Benjamin's sack. | | וַיְחַפֵּשׂ בַּגָּדֹול הֵחֵל וּבַקָּטֹן כִּלָּה וַיִּמָּצֵא הַגָּבִיעַ בְּאַמְתַּחַת בִּנְיָמִן׃ |
|
| 13 | Then they rent their clothes, and every man loaded his ass, and they returned to the city. | | וַיִּקְרְעוּ שִׂמְלֹתָם וַיַּעֲמֹס אִישׁ עַל־חֲמֹרֹו וַיָּשֻׁבוּ הָעִירָה׃ |
|
| 14 | When Judah and his brothers came to Joseph's house, he was still there; and they fell before him to the ground. | | וַיָּבֹא יְהוּדָה וְאֶחָיו בֵּיתָה יֹוסֵף וְהוּא עֹודֶנּוּ שָׁם וַיִּפְּלוּ לְפָנָיו אָרְצָה׃ |
|
| 15 | Joseph said to them, "What deed is this that you have done? Do you not know that such a man as I can indeed divine?" | | וַיֹּאמֶר לָהֶם יֹוסֵף מָה־הַמַּעֲשֶׂה הַזֶּה אֲשֶׁר עֲשִׂיתֶם הֲלֹוא יְדַעְתֶּם כִּי־נַחֵשׁ יְנַחֵשׁ אִישׁ אֲשֶׁר כָּמֹנִי׃ |
|
| 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 slaves, both we and he also in whose hand the cup has been found." | | וַיֹּאמֶר יְהוּדָה מַה־נֹּאמַר לַאדֹנִי מַה־נְּדַבֵּר וּמַה־נִּצְטַדָּק הָאֱלֹהִים מָצָא אֶת־עֲוֹן עֲבָדֶיךָ הִנֶּנּוּ עֲבָדִים לַאדֹנִי גַּם־אֲנַחְנוּ גַּם אֲשֶׁר־נִמְצָא הַגָּבִיעַ בְּיָדֹו׃ |
|
| 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 slave; but as for you, go up in peace to your father." | | וַיֹּאמֶר חָלִילָה לִּי מֵעֲשֹׂות זֹאת הָאִישׁ אֲשֶׁר נִמְצָא הַגָּבִיעַ בְּיָדֹו הוּא יִהְיֶה־לִּי עָבֶד וְאַתֶּם עֲלוּ לְשָׁלֹום אֶל־אֲבִיכֶם׃ ף |
