اَلتَّكْوِينُ 45
| فَلَمْ يَسْتَطِعْ يُوسُفُ أَنْ يَضْبِطَ نَفْسَهُ لَدَى جَمِيعِ ٱلْوَاقِفِينَ عِنْدَهُ فَصَرَخَ: «أَخْرِجُوا كُلَّ إِنْسَانٍ عَنِّي». فَلَمْ يَقِفْ أَحَدٌ عِنْدَهُ حِينَ عَرَّفَ يُوسُفُ إِخْوَتَهُ بِنَفْسِهِ. | ١ 1 |
Then Joseph [May he add] couldn’t control himself before all those who stood before him, and he cried, “Cause everyone to go out from me!” No one else stood with him, while Joseph [May he add] made himself known to his brothers.
| فَأَطْلَقَ صَوْتَهُ بِٱلْبُكَاءِ، فَسَمِعَ ٱلْمِصْرِيُّونَ وَسَمِعَ بَيْتُ فِرْعَوْنَ. | ٢ 2 |
He wept aloud. The Egyptians [people from Abode of slavery] sh'ma ·heard obeyed·, and the house of Pharaoh sh'ma ·heard obeyed·.
| وَقَالَ يُوسُفُ لِإِخْوَتِهِ: «أَنَا يُوسُفُ. أَحَيٌّ أَبِي بَعْدُ؟» فَلَمْ يَسْتَطِعْ إِخْوَتُهُ أَنْ يُجِيبُوهُ، لِأَنَّهُمُ ٱرْتَاعُوا مِنْهُ. | ٣ 3 |
Joseph [May he add] said to his brothers, “I am Joseph [May he add]! Does my father still live?” His brothers couldn’t answer him; for they were terrified at his presence.
| فَقَالَ يُوسُفُ لِإِخْوَتِهِ: «تَقَدَّمُوا إِلَيَّ». فَتَقَدَّمُوا. فَقَالَ: «أَنَا يُوسُفُ أَخُوكُمُ ٱلَّذِي بِعْتُمُوهُ إِلَى مِصْرَ. | ٤ 4 |
Joseph [May he add] said to his brothers, “Come near to me, please.” They came near. “He said, I am Joseph [May he add], your brother, whom you sold into Egypt [Abode of slavery].
| وَٱلْآنَ لَا تَتَأَسَّفُوا وَلَا تَغْتَاظُوا لِأَنَّكُمْ بِعْتُمُونِي إِلَى هُنَا، لِأَنَّهُ لِٱسْتِبْقَاءِ حَيَاةٍ أَرْسَلَنِيَ ٱللهُ قُدَّامَكُمْ. | ٥ 5 |
Now don’t be grieved, nor angry with yourselves, that you sold me here, for God sent me before you to preserve life.
| لِأَنَّ لِلْجُوعِ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلْآنَ سَنَتَيْنِ. وَخَمْسُ سِنِينَ أَيْضًا لَا تَكُونُ فِيهَا فَلَاحَةٌ وَلَا حَصَادٌ. | ٦ 6 |
For these two years the famine has been in the land, and there are yet five years, in which there will be no plowing and no harvest.
| فَقَدْ أَرْسَلَنِي ٱللهُ قُدَّامَكُمْ لِيَجْعَلَ لَكُمْ بَقِيَّةً فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ وَلِيَسْتَبْقِيَ لَكُمْ نَجَاةً عَظِيمَةً. | ٧ 7 |
God sent me before you to preserve for you a remnant in the earth, and to save you alive by a great deliverance.
| فَٱلْآنَ لَيْسَ أَنْتُمْ أَرْسَلْتُمُونِي إِلَى هُنَا بَلِ ٱللهُ. وَهُوَ قَدْ جَعَلَنِي أَبًا لِفِرْعَوْنَ وَسَيِّدًا لِكُلِّ بَيْتِهِ وَمُتَسَلِّطًا عَلَى كُلِّ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ. | ٨ 8 |
So now it was not you who sent me here, but God, and he has made me a father to Pharaoh, lord of all his house, and ruler over all the land of Egypt [Abode of slavery].
| أَسْرِعُوا وَٱصْعَدُوا إِلَى أَبِي وَقُولُوا لَهُ: هَكَذَا يَقُولُ ٱبْنُكَ يُوسُفُ: قَدْ جَعَلَنِيَ ٱللهُ سَيِّدًا لِكُلِّ مِصْرَ. اِنْزِلْ إِلَيَّ. لَا تَقِفْ. | ٩ 9 |
Hurry, and go up to my father, and tell him, ‘This is what your son Joseph [May he add] says, “God has made me lord of all Egypt [Abode of slavery]. Come down to me. Don’t wait.
| فَتَسْكُنَ فِي أَرْضِ جَاسَانَ وَتَكُونَ قَرِيبًا مِنِّي، أَنْتَ وَبَنُوكَ وَبَنُو بَنِيكَ وَغَنَمُكَ وَبَقَرُكَ وَكُلُّ مَا لَكَ. | ١٠ 10 |
You shall dwell in the land of Goshen [Drawing near], and you will be near to me, you, your children, your children’s children, your flocks, your herds, and all that you have.
| وَأَعُولُكَ هُنَاكَ، لِأَنَّهُ يَكُونُ أَيْضًا خَمْسُ سِنِينَ جُوعًا. لِئَلَّا تَفْتَقِرَ أَنْتَ وَبَيْتُكَ وَكُلُّ مَا لَكَ. | ١١ 11 |
There I will nourish you; for there are yet five years of famine; lest you come to poverty, you, and your household, and all that you have.”’
| وَهُوَذَا عْيُونُكُمْ تَرَى، وَعَيْنَا أَخِي بَنْيَامِينَ، أَنَّ فَمِي هُوَ ٱلَّذِي يُكَلِّمُكُمْ. | ١٢ 12 |
Behold, your eyes see, and the eyes of my brother Benjamin [Son of right hand, Son of south], that it is my mouth that speaks to you.
| وَتُخْبِرُونَ أَبِي بِكُلِّ مَجْدِي فِي مِصْرَ وَبِكُلِّ مَا رَأَيْتُمْ، وَتَسْتَعْجِلُونَ وَتَنْزِلُونَ بِأَبِي إِلَى هُنَا». | ١٣ 13 |
You shall tell my father of all my glory in Egypt [Abode of slavery], and of all that you have seen. You shall hurry and bring my father down here.”
| ثُمَّ وَقَعَ عَلَى عُنُقِ بَنْيَامِينَ أَخِيهِ وَبَكَى، وَبَكَى بَنْيَامِينُ عَلَى عُنُقِهِ. | ١٤ 14 |
He fell on his brother Benjamin [Son of right hand, Son of south]’s neck, and wept, and Benjamin [Son of right hand, Son of south] wept on his neck.
| وَقَبَّلَ جَمِيعَ إِخْوَتِهِ وَبَكَى عَلَيْهِمْ. وَبَعْدَ ذَلِكَ تَكَلَّمَ إِخْوَتُهُ مَعَهُ. | ١٥ 15 |
He kissed all his brothers, and wept on them. After that his brothers talked with him.
| وَسُمِعَ ٱلْخَبَرُ فِي بَيْتِ فِرْعَوْنَ، وَقِيلَ: «جَاءَ إِخْوَةُ يُوسُفَ». فَحَسُنَ فِي عَيْنَيْ فِرْعَوْنَ وَفِي عُيُونِ عَبِيدِهِ. | ١٦ 16 |
The report of it was sh'ma ·heard obeyed· in Pharaoh’s house, saying, “Joseph [May he add]’s brothers have come.” It pleased Pharaoh well, and his servants.
| فَقَالَ فِرْعَوْنُ لِيُوسُفَ: «قُلْ لِإِخْوَتِكَ: ٱفْعَلُوا هَذَا: حَمِّلُوا دَوَابَّكُمْ وَٱنْطَلِقُوا، ٱذْهَبُوا إِلَى أَرْضِ كَنْعَانَ. | ١٧ 17 |
Pharaoh said to Joseph [May he add], “Tell your brothers, ‘Do this. Load your animals, and go, travel to the land of Canaan [Humbled].
| وَخُذُوا أَبَاكُمْ وَبُيُوتَكُمْ وَتَعَالَوْا إِلَيَّ، فَأُعْطِيَكُمْ خَيْرَاتِ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ وَتَأْكُلُوا دَسَمَ ٱلْأَرْضِ. | ١٨ 18 |
Take your father and your households, and come to me, and I will give you the good of the land of Egypt [Abode of slavery], and you will eat the fat of the land.’
| فَأَنْتَ قَدْ أُمِرْتَ، ٱفْعَلُوا هَذَا: خُذُوا لَكُمْ مِنْ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ عَجَلَاتٍ لِأَوْلَادِكُمْ وَنِسَائِكُمْ، وَٱحْمِلُوا أَبَاكُمْ وَتَعَالَوْا. | ١٩ 19 |
Now you are enjoined: do this. Take wagons out of the land of Egypt [Abode of slavery] for your little ones, and for your wives, and bring your father, and come.
| وَلَا تَحْزَنْ عُيُونُكُمْ عَلَى أَثَاثِكُمْ، لِأَنَّ خَيْرَاتِ جَمِيعِ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ لَكُمْ». | ٢٠ 20 |
Also, don’t concern yourselves about your belongings, for the good of all the land of Egypt [Abode of slavery] is yours.”
| فَفَعَلَ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ هَكَذَا. وَأَعْطَاهُمْ يُوسُفُ عَجَلَاتٍ بِحَسَبِ أَمْرِ فِرْعَوْنَ، وَأَعْطَاهُمْ زَادًا لِلطَّرِيقِ. | ٢١ 21 |
The sons of Israel [God prevails] did so. Joseph [May he add] gave them wagons, according to the order of Pharaoh, and gave them provision for the way.
| وَأَعْطَى كُلَّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْهُمْ حُلَلَ ثِيَابٍ، وَأَمَّا بَنْيَامِينُ فَأَعْطَاهُ ثَلَاثَ مِئَةٍ مِنَ ٱلْفِضَّةِ وَخَمْسَ حُلَلِ ثِيَابٍ. | ٢٢ 22 |
He gave each one of them changes of clothing, but to Benjamin [Son of right hand, Son of south] he gave three hundred pieces of silver and five changes of clothing.
| وَأَرْسَلَ لِأَبِيهِ هَكَذَا: عَشْرَةَ حَمِيرٍ حَامِلَةً مِنْ خَيْرَاتِ مِصْرَ، وَعَشَرَ أُتُنٍ حَامِلَةً حِنْطَةً، وَخُبْزًا وَطَعَامًا لِأَبِيهِ لِأَجْلِ ٱلطَّرِيقِ. | ٢٣ 23 |
He sent the following to his father: ten donkeys loaded with the good things of Egypt [Abode of slavery], and ten female donkeys loaded with grain and bread and provision for his father by the way.
| ثُمَّ صَرَفَ إِخْوَتَهُ فَٱنْطَلَقُوا، وَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «لَا تَتَغَاضَبُوا فِي ٱلطَّرِيقِ». | ٢٤ 24 |
So he sent his brothers away, and they departed. He said to them, “See that you don’t quarrel on the way.”
| فَصَعِدُوا مِنْ مِصْرَ وَجَاءُوا إِلَى أَرْضِ كَنْعَانَ، إِلَى يَعْقُوبَ أَبِيهِمْ. | ٢٥ 25 |
They went up out of Egypt [Abode of slavery], and came into the land of Canaan [Humbled], to Jacob [Supplanter] their father.
| وَأَخْبَرُوهُ قَائِلِينَ: «يُوسُفُ حَيٌّ بَعْدُ، وَهُوَ مُتَسَلِّطٌ عَلَى كُلِّ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ». فَجَمَدَ قَلْبُهُ لِأَنَّهُ لَمْ يُصَدِّقْهُمْ. | ٢٦ 26 |
They told him, saying, “Joseph [May he add] is still alive, and he is ruler over all the land of Egypt [Abode of slavery].” His heart fainted, for he didn’t believe them.
| ثُمَّ كَلَّمُوهُ بِكُلِّ كَلَامِ يُوسُفَ ٱلَّذِي كَلَّمَهُمْ بِهِ، وَأَبْصَرَ ٱلْعَجَلَاتِ ٱلَّتِي أَرْسَلَهَا يُوسُفُ لِتَحْمِلَهُ. فَعَاشَتْ رُوحُ يَعْقُوبَ أَبِيهِمْ. | ٢٧ 27 |
They told him all the words of Joseph [May he add], which he had said to them. When he saw the wagons which Joseph [May he add] had sent to carry him, the spirit of Jacob [Supplanter], their father, revived.
| فَقَالَ إِسْرَائِيلُ: «كَفَى! يُوسُفُ ٱبْنِي حَيٌّ بَعْدُ. أَذْهَبُ وَأَرَاهُ قَبْلَ أَنْ أَمُوتَ». | ٢٨ 28 |
Israel [God prevails] said, “It is enough. Joseph [May he add] my son is still alive. I will go and see him before I die.”
