Capítulo 44
1 Onda Josip naredi upravitelju svoga kućanstva: “Napuni vreće ovih ljudi hranom koliko mogu ponijeti, a novac svakog stavi u grlo njegove vreće.
2 A moj pehar - onaj od srebra - stavi u grlo vreće najmlađega, zajedno s njegovim novcem za žito.” On učini kako mu je Josip naredio.
3 Kad je svanulo, otpreme ljude i njihove magarce.
4 Tek što su izišli iz grada - nisu bili odmakli daleko - kad Josip reče upravitelju svoga kućanstva: “Na noge! Pođi za onim ljudima! Kad ih stigneš, kaži im: 'Zašto uzvraćate zlo za dobro?
5 Zar iz onog pehara ne pije moj gospodar i ne čita iz njega proricanje? Zlo ste učinili!'”
6 Stigavši ih, ponovi im te riječi.
7 Oni odgovore: “Zašto nam gospodar govori tako? Daleko bilo od slugu tvojih da učine takvo što!
8 Čak i novac koji smo našli u svojim vrećama donijeli smo ti natrag iz zemlje kanaanske. Kako bismo onda mogli ukrasti srebra ili zlata iz kuće tvoga gospodara!
9 Onaj u koga se od tvojih slugu nađe, neka se usmrti, a mi drugi postat ćemo robovi tvome gospodaru.”
10 “Premda je ono što predlažeš pravo”, preuzme on, “ipak će samo onaj u koga se ukradeno pronađe biti moj rob, a ostali bit ćete slobodni.”
11 Brže spustiše vreće na zemlju i svaki svoju otvori.
12 On je pretraživao, počevši s najstarijim i završivši s najmlađim. Pehar se nađe u Benjaminovoj vreći.
13 Nato oni razdru svoje haljine; svaki ponovo natovari svoga magarca i vrate se u grad.
14 Kad su Juda i njegova braća ponovo stupili u Josipov dom, još je on bio ondje. Bace se preda nj na zemlju.
15 Onda im Josip reče: “Kakvo je to djelo što ste ga učinili? Zar ne znate da se čovjek kao što sam ja bavi proricanjem?”
16 Nato Juda odgovori: “Što bismo mogli reći svome gospodaru? Što možemo kazati, čime li se opravdati? Bog je otkrio zlodjelo tvojih slugu. Evo nas za robove svome gospodaru - jednako nas kao i onog u koga se našao pehar.”
17 “Daleko od mene da učinim tako!” - odgovori. “Nego, onaj u koga se našao pehar bit će moj rob, a vi drugi pođite mirno k svome ocu!”
18 Onda mu se Juda primače i reče: “Gospodaru moj, molim te, dopusti sluzi svojem da rekne riječ ušima gospodara svojega i neka se tvoja srdžba ne razlijeva na tvog slugu. TÓa ti si ravan faraonu.
19 Pitao je moj gospodar svoje sluge: 'Imate li oca ili još kojega brata?'
20 Svome smo gospodaru odgovorili: 'Imamo stara oca; on još ima jednog sina, rođena u njegovoj staračkoj dobi. Taj je najmlađi. Njegov je pravi brat umro, tako da je on jedini ostao od svoje majke. Njegov ga otac osobito voli.'
21 Potom si rekao svojim slugama: 'Dovedite mi ga ovamo da ga vide moje oči?'
22 A mi smo odgovorili svome gospodaru: 'Dječak ne može ostaviti oca; kad bi ga ostavio, njegov bi otac umro.'
23 Nato si rekao svojim slugama: 'Ako vaš najmlađi brat s vama ne dođe ovamo, više ne smijete preda me.'
24 Kad smo se vratili tvome sluzi, ocu mome, kazali smo mu riječi moga gospodara.
25 Naš nam je otac rekao: 'Idite opet i nabavite nam malo hrane!'
26 Odgovorili smo: 'Ne možemo onamo. Samo ako s nama pođe naš najmlađi brat, sići ćemo, jer ne smijemo pred onoga čovjeka ako ne bude s nama naš najmlađi brat.'
27 Tvoj sluga, otac moj, odvrati nam: 'Kako znate, žena mi je rodila dva sina.
28 Jedan je nestao, te sam zaključio: sigurno je rastrgan! Odonda ga više nisam vidio.
29 Ako i ovoga od mene odvedete pa ga kakva nesreća snađe, moju ćete sijedu glavu s tugom strovaliti dolje u Šeol.'
30 Ako sad dođem k tvome sluzi, ocu svome, a mladić - čiji je život tako povezan s njegovim - ne bude s nama,
31 on će svisnuti kad vidi da dječaka nema s nama; tako će tvoje sluge strovaliti u tuzi sijedu glavu tvoga sluge, oca našega, dolje u Šeol.
32 Jer tvoj je sluga zajamčio ocu svome za dječaka, rekavši: 'Ako ti ga ne vratim, bit ću kriv svome ocu svega vijeka.'
33 Zato, molim te, neka tvoj sluga ostane kao rob mome gospodaru, a dječak neka ide natrag s braćom.
34 Jer, kako mogu k svome ocu ako dječaka nema sa mnom! Ne bih mogao gledati jad što bi snašao moga oca.”

Genesis

Capítulo 44
1 And he commanded the steward of his house, saying, Fill the men’s sacks with food, as much as they can carry, and put every man’s money in his sack’s mouth.
2 And put my cup, the silver cup, in the sack’s mouth of the youngest, and his corn money. And he did according to the word that Joseph had spoken.
3 As soon as the morning was light, the men were sent away, they and their asses.
4 And when they were gone out of the city, and not yet far off, Joseph said unto his steward, Up, follow after the men; and when thou dost overtake them, say unto them, Wherefore have ye rewarded evil for good?
5 Is not this it in which my lord drinketh, and whereby indeed he divineth? ye have done evil in so doing.
6 ¶ And he overtook them, and he spake unto them these same words.
7 And they said unto him, Wherefore saith my lord these words? God forbid that thy servants should do according to this thing:
8 Behold, the money, which we found in our sacks’ mouths, we brought again unto thee out of the land of Canaan: how then should we steal out of thy lord’s house silver or gold?
9 With whomsoever of thy servants it be found, both let him die, and we also will be my lord’s bondmen.
10 And he said, Now also let it be according unto your words: he with whom it is found shall be my servant; and ye shall be blameless.
11 Then they speedily took down every man his sack to the ground, and opened every man his sack.
12 And he searched, and began at the eldest, and left at the youngest: and the cup was found in Benjamin’s sack.
13 Then they rent their clothes, and laded every man his ass, and returned to the city.
14 ¶ And Judah and his brethren came to Joseph’s house; for he was yet there: and they fell before him on the ground.
15 And Joseph said unto them, What deed is this that ye have done? wot ye not that such a man as I can certainly divine?
16 And Judah said, What shall we say unto my lord? what shall we speak? or how shall we clear ourselves? God hath found out the iniquity of thy servants: behold, we are my lord’s servants, both we, and he also with whom the cup is found.
17 And he said, God forbid that I should do so: but the man in whose hand the cup is found, he shall be my servant; and as for you, get you up in peace unto your father.
18 ¶ Then Judah came near unto him, and said, Oh 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.
19 My lord asked his servants, saying, Have ye a father, or a brother?
20 And we said unto my lord, We have a father, an old man, and a child of his old age, a little one; and his brother is dead, and he alone is left of his mother, and his father loveth him.
21 And thou saidst unto thy servants, Bring him down unto me, that I may set mine eyes upon him.
22 And we said unto my lord, The lad cannot leave his father: for if he should leave his father, his father would die.
23 And thou saidst unto thy servants, Except your youngest brother come down with you, ye shall see my face no more.
24 And it came to pass when we came up unto thy servant my father, we told him the words of my lord.
25 And our father said, Go again, and buy us a little food.
26 And we said, We cannot go down: if our youngest brother be with us, then will we go down: for we may not see the man’s face, except our youngest brother be with us.
27 And thy servant my father said unto us, Ye know that my wife bare me two sons:
28 And the one went out from me, and I said, Surely he is torn in pieces; and I saw him not since:
29 And if ye take this also from me, and mischief befall him, ye shall bring down my gray hairs with sorrow to the grave.
30 Now therefore when I come to thy servant my father, and the lad be not with us; seeing that his life is bound up in the lad’s life;
31 It shall come to pass, when he seeth that the lad is not with us, that he will die: and thy servants shall bring down the gray hairs of thy servant our father with sorrow to the grave.
32 For thy servant became surety for the lad unto my father, saying, If I bring him not unto thee, then I shall bear the blame to my father for ever.
33 Now therefore, I pray thee, let thy servant abide instead of the lad a bondman to my lord; and let the lad go up with his brethren.
34 For how shall I go up to my father, and the lad be not with me? lest peradventure I see the evil that shall come on my father.
