<3423 yarash > the land <0776 >erets > wherein thou art a

stranger <4033 maguwr >, which <0834 >aher > God <0430 >elohiym

5 And Isaac <3327 Yitschaq > sent <7971 shalach > away Jacob

<3290 Ya<aqob >: and he went <3212 yalak > to Padanaram <6307

Paddan > unto Laban <3837 Laban >, son <1121 ben > of Bethuel

<1328 B@thuw>el > the Syrian <0761 >Arammiy >, the brother <0251

Esau's <6215 <Esav > mother <0517 >em >.

6. When Esau <6215 <Esav > saw <7200 ra>ah > that Isaac <3327

Yitschaq > had blessed <1288 barak > Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob >, and

sent <7971 shalach > him away to Padanaram <6307 Paddan >, to

take <3947 laqach > him a wife <0802 >ishshah > from thence

<8033 sham >; and that as he blessed <1288 barak > him he gave

him a charge <6680 tsavah >, saying <0559 >amar >, Thou shalt

not take <3947 laqach > a wife <0802 >ishshah > of the daughters

<1363 gobahh > of Canaan <3667 K@na<an >;

7 And that Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > obeyed <8085 shama< > his

father <1> and his mother <0517 >em >, and was gone <3212 yalak

8 And Esau <6215 <Esav > seeing <7200 ra>ah > that the

daughters <1363 gobahh > of Canaan <3667 K@na<an > pleased not

Isaac <3327 Yitschaq > his father <1>;

9 Then went <3212 yalak > Esau <6215 <Esav > unto Ishmael <3458

Yishma<e>l >, and took <3947 laqach > unto the wives <0802

<1121 ben >, the sister <0269 >achowth > of Nebajoth <5032

N@bayowth >, to be his wife <0802 >ishshah >.

10. And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > went <3318 yatsa> > out from

Beersheba <0884 B@>er Sheba< >, and went <3212 yalak > toward

Haran <2771 Charan >.

11 And he lighted <6293 paga< > upon a certain place <4725

maqowm >, and tarried <3885 luwn > there <8033 sham > all <3885

luwn > night, because <3588 kiy > the sun <8121 shemesh > was

set <0935 bow> >; and he took <3947 laqach > of the stones <68>

of that place <4725 maqowm >, and put <7760 suwm > [them for]

his pillows <4763 m@ra>ashah >, and lay <7901 shakab > down in

that place <4725 maqowm > to sleep <7901 shakab >.

12 And he dreamed <2492 chalam >, and behold <2009 hinneh > a

ladder <5551 cullam > set <5324 natsab > up on the earth <0776

>erets >, and the top <7218 ro>sh > of it reached <5060 naga< >

to heaven <8064 shamayim >: and behold <2009 hinneh > the angels

<4397 mal>ak > of God <0430 >elohiym > ascending <5927 <alah >

and descending <3381 yarad > on it.

13 And, behold <2009 hinneh >, the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > stood

<5324 natsab > above <5921 <al > it, and said <0559 >amar >, I

[am] the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > God <0430 >elohiym > of Abraham

<85> thy father <1>, and the God <0430 >elohiym > of Isaac <3327

Yitschaq >: the land <0776 >erets > whereon thou liest <7901

shakab >, to thee will I give <5414 nathan > it, and to thy seed

<2233 zera< >;

14 And thy seed <2233 zera< > shall be as the dust <6083 <aphar

parats > abroad <6555 parats > to the west <3220 yam >, and to

the east <6924 qedem >, and to the north <6828 tsaphown >, and

to the south <5045 negeb >: and in thee and in thy seed <2233

zera< > shall all <3605 kol > the families <4940 mishpachah > of

the earth <0127 >adamah > be blessed <1288 barak >.

15 And, behold <2009 hinneh >, I [am] with thee, and will keep

<8104 shamar > thee in all <3605 kol > [places] whither <0834

>aher > thou goest <3212 yalak >, and will bring <7725 shuwb >

thee again <7725 shuwb > into <0413 >el > this <2063 zo>th >

land <0127 >adamah >; for I will not leave <5800 <azab > thee,

until I have done <6213 <asah > [that] which <0834 >aher > I

have spoken <1696 dabar > to thee of.

16. And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > awaked <3364 yaqats > out of his

sleep <8142 shehah >, and he said <0559 >amar >, Surely <0403

>aken > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > is in this <2088 zeh > place

<4725 maqowm >; and I knew <3045 yada< > [it] not.

17 And he was afraid <3372 yare> >, and said <0559 >amar >, How

<4100 mah > dreadful <3372 yare> > [is] this <2088 zeh > place

<4725 maqowm >! this <2088 zeh > [is] none <0369 >ayin > other

but the house <1004 bayith > of God <0430 >elohiym >, and this

<2088 zeh > [is] the gate <8179 sha<ar > of heaven <8064

shamayim >.

18 And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > rose <7925 shakam > up early <7925

shakam > in the morning <1242 boqer >, and took <3947 laqach >

the stone <68> that he had put <7760 suwm > [for] his pillows

<4763 m@ra>ashah >, and set <7760 suwm > it up [for] a pillar

<4676 matstsebah >, and poured <3332 yatsaq > oil <8081 shemen >

upon the top <7218 ro>sh > of it.

19 And he called <7121 qara> > the name <8034 shem > of that

place <4725 maqowm > Bethel <1008 Beyth->El >: but the name

<8034 shem > of that city <5892 <iyr > [was called] Luz <3870

Luwz > at the first <7223 ri>shown >.

20 And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > vowed <5087 nadar > a vow <5088

neder >, saying <0559 >amar >, If <0518 >im > God <0430 >elohiym

<5414 nathan > me bread <3899 lechem > to eat <0398 >akal >, and

raiment <0899 beged > to put <3847 labash > on,

21 So that I come <7725 shuwb > again <7725 shuwb > to my

father's <1> house <1004 bayith > in peace <7965 shalowm >; then

shall the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > be my God <0430 >elohiym >:

22 And this <2063 zo>th > stone <68>, which <0834 >aher > I

have set <7760 suwm > [for] a pillar <4676 matstsebah >, shall

be God's <0430 >elohiym > house <1004 bayith >: and of all <3605

kol > that thou shalt give <5414 nathan > me I will surely give

the tenth <6237 <asar > unto thee.

Genesis 29

1. Then Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > went on his journey, and came

<3212 yalak > into <0413 >el > the land <0776 >erets > of the

people <1121 ben > of the east <6924 qedem >.

2 And he looked <7200 ra>ah >, and behold <2009 hinneh > a well

<0875 @>er > in the field <7704 sadeh >, and, lo <2009 hinneh >,

there <8033 sham > [were] three <7969 shalowsh > flocks <5739

<eder > of sheep <6629 tso>n > lying <7257 rabats > by it; for

out of that well <0875 @>er > they watered <8248 shaqah > the

flocks <5739 <eder >: and a great <1419 gadowl > stone <68>

[was] upon the well's <0875 @>er > mouth <6310 peh >.

3 And thither <8033 sham > were all <3605 kol > the flocks

<5739 <eder > gathered <0622 >acaph >: and they rolled <1556

galal > the stone <68> from the well's <0875 @>er > mouth <6310

peh >, and watered <8248 shaqah > the sheep <6629 tso>n >, and

put <7725 shuwb > the stone <68> again <7725 shuwb > upon the

well's <0875 @>er > mouth <6310 peh > in his place <4725 maqowm

4 And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > said <0559 >amar > unto them, My

brethren <0251 >ach >, whence <0370 >aiyn > [be] ye? And they

said <0559 >amar >, Of Haran <2771 Charan > [are] we.

5 And he said <0559 >amar > unto them, Know <3045 yada< > ye

Laban <3837 Laban > the son <1121 ben > of Nahor <5152 Q@riyowth

Nachowr >? And they said <0559 >amar >, We know <3045 yada< >

[him].

6 And he said <0559 >amar > unto them, [Is] he well <7965

shalowm >? And they said <0559 >amar >, [He is] well <7965

shalowm >: and, behold <2009 hinneh >, Rachel <7354 Rachel > his

daughter <1323 bath > cometh <0935 bow> > with the sheep <6629

tso>n >.

7 And he said <0559 >amar >, Lo <2005 hen >, [it is] yet <5750

<owd > high <1419 gadowl > day <3117 yowm >, neither <3808 lo> >

[is it] time <6256 <eth > that the cattle <4735 miqneh > should

be gathered <0622 >acaph > together: water <4325 mayim > ye the

sheep <6629 tso>n >, and go <3212 yalak > [and] feed <7462 ra<ah

8 And they said <0559 >amar >, We cannot, until <5704 <ad > all

<3605 kol > the flocks <5739 <eder > be gathered <0622 >acaph >

together, and [till] they roll <1556 galal > the stone <68> from

the well's <0875 @>er > mouth <6310 peh >; then we water <4325

mayim > the sheep <6629 tso>n >.

9. And while he yet <5750 <owd > spake <1696 dabar > with them,

Rachel <7354 Rachel > came <0935 bow> > with her father's <1>

sheep <6629 tso>n >: for she kept <7462 ra<ah > them.

10 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass, when <0834 >aher > Jacob

<3290 Ya<aqob > saw <7200 ra>ah > Rachel <7354 Rachel > the

daughter <1323 bath > of Laban <3837 Laban > his mother's <0517

<3837 Laban > his mother's <0517 >em > brother <0251 >ach >,

that Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > went <5066 nagash > near <5066 nagash

@>er > mouth <6310 peh >, and watered <8248 shaqah > the flock

<6629 tso>n > of Laban <3837 Laban > his mother's <0517 >em >

brother <0251 >ach >.

11 And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > kissed <5401 nashaq > Rachel <7354

Rachel >, and lifted <5375 nasa> > up his voice <6963 qowl >,

and wept <1058 bakah >.

12 And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > told <5046 nagad > Rachel <7354

Rachel > that he [was] her father's <1> brother <0251 >ach >,

and that he [was] Rebekah's <7259 Ribqah > son <1121 ben >: and

she ran <7323 ruwts > and told <5046 nagad > her father <1>.

13 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass, when Laban <3837 Laban >

heard <8085 shama< > the tidings <8088 shema< > of Jacob <3290

Ya<aqob > his sister's <0269 >achowth > son <1121 ben >, that he

ran <7323 ruwts > to meet <7125 qir>ah > him, and embraced <2263

chabaq > him, and kissed <5401 nashaq > him, and brought <0935

bow> > him to his house <1004 bayith >. And he told <5608 caphar

things <1697 dabar >.

14 And Laban <3837 Laban > said <0559 >amar > to him, Surely

<0389 >ak > thou [art] my bone <6106 <etsem > and my flesh <1320

basar >. And he abode <3427 yashab > with him the space <3117

yowm > of a month <2320 chodesh >.

15. And Laban <3837 Laban > said <0559 >amar > unto Jacob <3290

Ya<aqob >, Because <3588 kiy > thou [art] my brother <0251 >ach

<2600 chinnam >? tell <5046 nagad > me, what <4100 mah > [shall]

thy wages <4909 maskoreth > [be]?

16 And Laban <3837 Laban > had two <8147 sh@nayim > daughters

<1363 gobahh >: the name <8034 shem > of the elder <1419 gadowl

> [was] Leah <3812 Le>ah >, and the name <8034 shem > of the

younger <6996 qatan > [was] Rachel <7354 Rachel >.

17 Leah <3812 Le>ah > [was] tender <7390 rak > eyed <5869 <ayin

18 And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > loved <0157 >ahab > Rachel <7354

Rachel >; and said <0559 >amar >, I will serve <5647 <abad >

thee seven <7651 sheba< > years <8141 shaneh > for Rachel <7354

Rachel > thy younger <6996 qatan > daughter <1323 bath >.

19 And Laban <3837 Laban > said <0559 >amar >, [It is] better

<2896 towb > that I give <5414 nathan > her to thee, than that I

should give <5414 nathan > her to another <0312 >acher > man

<0376 >iysh >: abide <3427 yashab > with me.

20 And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > served <5647 <abad > seven <7651

sheba< > years <8141 shaneh > for Rachel <7354 Rachel >; and

they seemed unto him [but] a few <0259 >echad > days <3117 yowm

21 And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > said <0559 >amar > unto Laban

<3837 Laban >, Give <3051 yahab > [me] my wife <0802 >ishshah >,

for my days <3117 yowm > are fulfilled <4390 male> >, that I may

go <0935 bow> > in unto her.

22 And Laban <3837 Laban > gathered <0622 >acaph > together all

<3605 kol > the men <0582 >enowsh > of the place <4725 maqowm >,

and made <6213 <asah > a feast <4960 mishteh >.

23 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass in the evening <6153 <ereb

>, that he took <3947 laqach > Leah <3812 Le>ah > his daughter

<1323 bath >, and brought <0935 bow> > her to him; and he went

<0935 bow> > in unto her.

24 And Laban <3837 Laban > gave <5414 nathan > unto his

daughter <1323 bath > Leah <3812 Le>ah > Zilpah <2153 Zilpah >

his maid <8198 shiphchah > [for] an handmaid <8198 shiphchah >.

25 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass, that in the morning <1242

boqer >, behold <2009 hinneh >, it [was] Leah <3812 Le>ah >: and

he said <0559 >amar > to Laban <3837 Laban >, What <4100 mah >

[is] this <2063 zo>th > thou hast done <6213 <asah > unto me?

did not I serve <5647 <abad > with thee for Rachel <7354 Rachel

26 And Laban <3837 Laban > said <0559 >amar >, It must not be

so <3651 ken > done <6213 <asah > in our country <4725 maqowm >,

to give <5414 nathan > the younger <6810 tsa<iyr > before <6440

paniym > the firstborn <1067 bekiyrah >.

27 Fulfil <4390 male> > her week <7620 shabuwa< >, and we will

give <5414 nathan > thee this <2063 zo>th > also <1571 gam > for

the service <5656 <abodah > which <0834 >aher > thou shalt serve

<5647 <abad > with me yet <5750 <owd > seven <7651 sheba< >

other <0312 >acher > years <8141 shaneh >.

28 And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > did <6213 <asah > so <3651 ken >,

and fulfilled <4390 male> > her week <7620 shabuwa< >: and he

gave <5414 nathan > him Rachel <7354 Rachel > his daughter <1323

bath > to wife <0802 >ishshah > also.

29 And Laban <3837 Laban > gave <5414 nathan > to Rachel <7354

Rachel > his daughter <1323 bath > Bilhah <1090 Bilhah > his

handmaid <8198 shiphchah > to be her maid <8198 shiphchah >.

30 And he went <0935 bow> > in also <1571 gam > unto Rachel

<7354 Rachel >, and he loved <0157 >ahab > also <1571 gam >

Rachel <7354 Rachel > more than Leah <3812 Le>ah >, and served

<5647 <abad > with him yet <5750 <owd > seven <7651 sheba< >

other <0312 >acher > years <8141 shaneh >.

31. And when the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > saw <7200 ra>ah > that

Leah <3812 Le>ah > [was] hated <8130 sane> >, he opened <6605

pathach > her womb <7358 rechem >: but Rachel <7354 Rachel >

[was] barren <6135 <aqar >.

32 And Leah <3812 Le>ah > conceived <2030 hareh >, and bare

<3205 yalad > a son <1121 ben >, and she called <7121 qara> >

his name <8034 shem > Reuben <7205 R@>uwben >: for she said

<0559 >amar >, Surely <3588 kiy > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > hath

looked <7200 ra>ah > upon my affliction <6040 <oniy >; now <6258

<attah > therefore <3588 kiy > my husband <0376 >iysh > will

love <0157 >ahab > me.

33 And she conceived <2030 hareh > again <5750 <owd >, and bare

<3205 yalad > a son <1121 ben >; and said <0559 >amar >, Because

<3588 kiy > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > hath heard <8085 shama< >

that I [was] hated <8130 sane> >, he hath therefore <1571 gam >

given <5414 nathan > me this <2088 zeh > [son] also <1571 gam >:

and she called <7121 qara> > his name <8034 shem > Simeon <8095

Shim<own >.

34 And she conceived <2030 hareh > again <5750 <owd >, and bare

<3205 yalad > a son <1121 ben >; and said <0559 >amar >, Now

this time <6471 pa<am > will my husband <0376 >iysh > be joined

<3867 lavah > unto me, because <3588 kiy > I have born <3205

yalad > him three <7969 shalowsh > sons <1121 ben >: therefore

was his name <8034 shem > called <7121 qara> > Levi <3878 Leviy

35 And she conceived <2030 hareh > again <5750 <owd >, and bare

<3205 yalad > a son <1121 ben >: and she said <0559 >amar >, Now

will I praise <3034 yadah > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >: therefore

she called <7121 qara> > his name <8034 shem > Judah <3063

Y@huwdah >; and left <5975 <amad > bearing <3205 yalad >.

Genesis 30

1. And when Rachel <7354 Rachel > saw <7200 ra>ah > that she

bare <3205 yalad > Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > no <0369 >ayin >

children, Rachel <7354 Rachel > envied <7065 qana> > her sister

<0269 >achowth >; and said <0559 >amar > unto Jacob <3290

Ya<aqob >, Give <3051 yahab > me children <1121 ben >, or else

<0369 >ayin > I die <4191 muwth >.

2 And Jacob's <3290 Ya<aqob > anger <0639 >aph > was kindled

<2734 charah > against Rachel <7354 Rachel >: and he said <0559

who <0834 >aher > hath withheld <4513 mana< > from thee the

3 And she said <0559 >amar >, Behold <2009 hinneh > my maid

and she shall bear <3205 yalad > upon my knees <1290 berek >,

that I may also <1571 gam > have children <1129 banah > by her.

4 And she gave <5414 nathan > him Bilhah <1090 Bilhah > her

handmaid <8198 shiphchah > to wife <0802 >ishshah >: and Jacob

<3290 Ya<aqob > went <0935 bow> > in unto her.

5 And Bilhah <1090 Bilhah > conceived <2030 hareh >, and bare

<3205 yalad > Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > a son <1121 ben >.

6 And Rachel <7354 Rachel > said <0559 >amar >, God <0430

31 And he said <0559 >amar >, What <4100 mah > shall I give

33 So shall my righteousness <6666 ts@daqah > answer <6030

34 And Laban <3837 Laban > said <0559 >amar >, Behold <2005 hen

35 And he removed <5493 cuwr > that day <3117 yowm > the he

36 And he set <7760 suwm > three <7969 shalowsh > days <3117

Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob >: and Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > fed <7462 ra<ah

37. And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > took <3947 laqach > him rods

<4731 maqqel > of green <3892 lach > poplar <3839 libneh >, and

of the hazel <3869 luwz > and chesnut <6196 <armown > tree; and

38 And he set <3322 yatsag > the rods <4731 maqqel > which

39 And the flocks <6629 tso>n > conceived <3179 yacham > before

<0413 >el > the rods <4731 maqqel >, and brought <3205 yalad >

forth <3209 yillowd > cattle <6629 tso>n > ringstraked <6124

40 And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > did separate <6504 parad > the

41 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass, whensoever <3605 kol >

the stronger <7194 qashar > cattle <6629 tso>n > did conceive

42 But when the cattle <6629 tso>n > were feeble <5848 <ataph >,

he put <7760 suwm > [them] not in: so the feebler <5848 <ataph

Jacob's <3290 Ya<aqob >.

43 And the man <0376 >iysh > increased <6555 parats >

Genesis 31

1. And he heard <8085 shama< > the words <1697 dabar > of

Laban's <3837 Laban > sons <1121 ben >, saying <0559 >amar >,

Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > hath taken <3947 laqach > away all <3605

all <3605 kol > this <2088 zeh > glory <3519 kabowd >.

2 And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > beheld <7200 ra>ah > the

countenance <6440 paniym > of Laban <3837 Laban >, and, behold

<2009 hinneh >, it [was] not toward him as before.

3 And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > said <0559 >amar > unto Jacob

<3290 Ya<aqob >, Return <7725 shuwb > unto the land <0776 >erets

I will be with thee.

4 And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > sent <7971 shalach > and called

<7121 qara> > Rachel <7354 Rachel > and Leah <3812 Le>ah > to

the field <7704 sadeh > unto his flock <6629 tso>n >,

5 And said <0559 >amar > unto them, I see <7200 ra>ah > your

father's <1> countenance <6440 paniym >, that it [is] not toward

me as before; but the God <0430 >elohiym > of my father <1> hath

been <1961 hayah > with me.

6 And ye know <3045 yada< > that with all <3605 kol > my power

<3581 koach > I have served <5647 <abad > your father <1>.

7 And your father <1> hath deceived <2048 hathal > me, and

changed <2498 chalaph > my wages <4909 maskoreth > ten <6235

<eser > times <4489 moneh >; but God <0430 >elohiym > suffered

<5414 nathan > him not to hurt <7489 ra<a< > me.

8 If <0518 >im > he said <0559 >amar > thus <3541 koh >, The

speckled <5348 naqod > shall be thy wages <7939 sakar >; then

all <3605 kol > the cattle <6629 tso>n > bare <3205 yalad >

speckled <5348 naqod >: and if <0518 >im > he said <0559 >amar >

thus <3541 koh >, The ringstraked <6124 <aqod > shall be thy

hire <7937 shakar >; then bare <3205 yalad > all <3605 kol > the

cattle <6629 tso>n > ringstraked <6124 <aqod >.

9 Thus God <0430 >elohiym > hath taken <5337 natsal > away the

cattle <4735 miqneh > of your father <1>, and given <5414 nathan

10 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass at the time <6256 <eth >

that the cattle <6629 tso>n > conceived <3179 yacham >, that I

lifted <5375 nasa> > up mine eyes <5869 <ayin >, and saw <7200

ra>ah > in a dream <2472 chalowm >, and, behold <2009 hinneh >,

the rams <6260 <attuwd > which leaped <5927 <alah > upon the

cattle <6629 tso>n > [were] ringstraked <6124 <aqod >, speckled

11 And the angel <4397 mal>ak > of God <0430 >elohiym > spake

<0559 >amar > unto me in a dream <2472 chalowm >, [saying],

Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob >: And I said <0559 >amar >, Here <2009

12 And he said <0559 >amar >, Lift <5375 nasa> > up now <4994

ra>ah > all <3605 kol > that Laban <3837 Laban > doeth <6213

<asah > unto thee.

13 I [am] the God <0410 >el > of Bethel <1008 Beyth->El >,

where <0834 >aher > thou anointedst <4886 mashach > the pillar

<4676 matstsebah >, [and] where <0834 >aher > thou vowedst <5087

<0776 >erets > of thy kindred <4138 mowledeth >.

14 And Rachel <7354 Rachel > and Leah <3812 Le>ah > answered

<6030 <anah > and said <0559 >amar > unto him, [Is there] yet

<5750 <owd > any portion <2506 cheleq > or inheritance <5159

nachalah > for us in our father's <1> house <1004 bayith >?

15 Are we not counted <2803 chashab > of him strangers <5237

nokriy >? for he hath sold <4376 makar > us, and hath quite

devoured <0398 >akal > also <1571 gam > our money <3701 keceph >.

16 For all <3605 kol > the riches <6239 <osher > which <0834

father <1>, that [is] ours, and our children's <1121 ben >: now

<6258 <attah > then, whatsoever God <0430 >elohiym > hath said

<0559 >amar > unto thee, do <6213 <asah >.

17. Then Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > rose <6965 quwm > up, and set

<5375 nasa> > his sons <1121 ben > and his wives <0802 >ishshah

18 And he carried <5090 nahag > away all <3605 kol > his cattle

<4735 miqneh >, and all <3605 kol > his goods <7399 r@kuwsh >

which <0834 >aher > he had gotten <7408 rakash >, the cattle

to go <0935 bow> > to Isaac <3327 Yitschaq > his father <1> in

the land <0776 >erets > of Canaan <3667 K@na<an >.

19 And Laban <3837 Laban > went <1980 halak > to shear <1494

gazaz > his sheep <6629 tso>n >: and Rachel <7354 Rachel > had

stolen <1589 ganab > the images <8655 t@raphiym > that [were]

her father's <1>.

20 And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > stole <1589 ganab > away unawares

to Laban <3837 Laban > the Syrian <0761 >Arammiy >, in that he

told <5046 nagad > him not that he fled <1272 barach >.

21 So he fled <1272 barach > with all <3605 kol > that he had;

and he rose <6965 quwm > up, and passed <5674 <abar > over <5674

<abar > the river <5104 nahar >, and set <7760 suwm > his face

<6440 paniym > [toward] the mount <2022 har > Gilead <1568

Gil<ad >.

22 And it was told <5046 nagad > Laban <3837 Laban > on the

third <7992 sh@liyshiy > day <3117 yowm > that Jacob <3290

Ya<aqob > was fled <1272 barach >.

23 And he took <3947 laqach > his brethren <0251 >ach > with

they overtook <1692 dabaq > him in the mount <2022 har > Gilead

<1568 Gil<ad >.

24 And God <0430 >elohiym > came <0935 bow> > to Laban <3837

Laban > the Syrian <0761 >Arammiy > in a dream <2472 chalowm >

by night <3915 layil >, and said <0559 >amar > unto him, Take

<3290 Ya<aqob > either good <2896 towb > or <5704 <ad > bad

25. Then Laban <3837 Laban > overtook <5381 nasag > Jacob <3290

Ya<aqob >. Now Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > had pitched <8628 taqa< >

his tent <0168 >ohel > in the mount <2022 har >: and Laban <3837

Laban > with his brethren <0251 >ach > pitched <8628 taqa< > in

the mount <2022 har > of Gilead <1568 Gil<ad >.

26 And Laban <3837 Laban > said <0559 >amar > to Jacob <3290

Ya<aqob >, What <4100 mah > hast thou done <6213 <asah >, that

thou hast stolen <1589 ganab > away unawares to me, and carried

<5090 nahag > away my daughters <1363 gobahh >, as captives

<7617 shabah > [taken] with the sword <2719 chereb >?

27 Wherefore <4100 mah > didst thou flee <1272 barach > away

secretly <2244>, and steal <1589 ganab > away from me; and didst

not tell <5046 nagad > me, that I might have sent <7971 shalach

> thee away with mirth <8057 simchah >, and with songs <7892

shiyr >, with tabret <8596 toph >, and with harp <3658 kinnowr >?

28 And hast not suffered <5203 natash > me to kiss <5401 nashaq

now <6258 <attah > done foolishly <5528 cakal > in [so] doing

<6213 <asah >.

29 It is in the power <0410 >el > of my hand <3027 yad > to do

<6213 <asah > you hurt <7451 ra< >: but the God <0430 >elohiym >

of your father <1> spake <0559 >amar > unto me yesternight <0570

>emesh >, saying <0559 >amar >, Take thou heed <8104 shamar >

that thou speak <1696 dabar > not to Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob >

either good <2896 towb > or <5704 <ad > bad <7451 ra< >.

30 And now <6258 <attah >, [though] thou wouldest needs be gone

<1980 halak >, because <3588 kiy > thou sore longedst <3700

kacaph > after thy father's <1> house <1004 bayith >, [yet]

wherefore <4100 mah > hast thou stolen <1589 ganab > my gods

<0430 >elohiym >?

31 And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > answered <6030 <anah > and said

<0559 >amar > to Laban <3837 Laban >, Because <3588 kiy > I was

afraid <3372 yare> >: for I said <0559 >amar >, Peradventure

<6435 pen > thou wouldest take <1497 gazal > by force <1497

gazal > thy daughters <1363 gobahh > from me.

32 With whomsoever <0834 >aher > thou findest <4672 matsa> >

thy gods <0430 >elohiym >, let him not live <2421 chayah >:

before <5048 neged > our brethren <0251 >ach > discern <5234

nakar > thou what <4100 mah > [is] thine with me, and take <3947

laqach > [it] to thee. For Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > knew <3045

yada< > not that Rachel <7354 Rachel > had stolen <1589 ganab >

them.

33 And Laban <3837 Laban > went <0935 bow> > into Jacob's <3290

Ya<aqob > tent <0168 >ohel >, and into Leah's <3812 Le>ah > tent

<0168 >ohel >, and into the two <8147 sh@nayim > maidservants

<0519 >amah >' tents <0168 >ohel >; but he found <4672 matsa> >

[them] not. Then went <3318 yatsa> > he out of Leah's <3812

Le>ah > tent <0168 >ohel >, and entered <0935 bow> > into

Rachel's <7354 Rachel > tent <0168 >ohel >.

34 Now Rachel <7354 Rachel > had taken <3947 laqach > the

images <8655 t@raphiym >, and put <7760 suwm > them in the

camel's <1581 gamal > furniture <3733 kar >, and sat <3427

yashab > upon them. And Laban <3837 Laban > searched <4959

mashash > all <3605 kol > the tent <0168 >ohel >, but found

<4672 matsa> > [them] not.

35 And she said <0559 >amar > to her father <1>, Let it not

displease <2734 charah > my lord <0113 >adown > that I cannot

rise <6965 quwm > up before <6440 paniym > thee; for the custom

<1870 derek > of women <0802 >ishshah > [is] upon me. And he

searched <2664 chaphas >, but found <4672 matsa> > not the

images <8655 t@raphiym >.

36. And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > was wroth <2734 charah >, and

chode <7378 riyb > with Laban <3837 Laban >: and Jacob <3290

Ya<aqob > answered <6030 <anah > and said <0559 >amar > to Laban

<3837 Laban >, What <4100 mah > [is] my trespass <6588 pesha< >?

what <4100 mah > [is] my sin <2403 chatta>ah >, that thou hast

so hotly <1814 dalaq > pursued <1814 dalaq > after <0310 >achar

37 Whereas <3588 kiy > thou hast searched <4959 mashash > all

<3605 kol > my stuff <3627 k@liy >, what <4100 mah > hast thou

found <4672 matsa> > of all <3605 kol > thy household <1004

bayith > stuff <3627 k@liy >? set <7760 suwm > [it] here <3541

koh > before <5048 neged > my brethren <0251 >ach > and thy

brethren <0251 >ach >, that they may judge <3198 yakach >

betwixt <0996 beyn > us both <8147 sh@nayim >.

38 This <2088 zeh > twenty <6242 <esriym > years <8141 shaneh >

[have] I [been] with thee; thy ewes <7353 rachel > and thy she

goats <5795 <ez > have not cast <7921 shakol > their young, and

the rams <0352 >ayil > of thy flock <6629 tso>n > have I not

eaten <0398 >akal >.

39 That which was torn <2966 t@rephah > [of beasts <2966

t@rephah >] I brought <0935 bow> > not unto thee; I bare <2308

chadal > the loss <2398 chata> > of it; of my hand <3027 yad >

didst thou require <1245 baqash > it, [whether] stolen <1589

ganab > by day <3117 yowm >, or stolen <1589 ganab > by night

<3915 layil >.

40 [Thus] I was; in the day <3117 yowm > the drought <2721

choreb > consumed <0398 >akal > me, and the frost <7140 qerach >

by night <3915 layil >; and my sleep <8142 shehah > departed

<5074 nadad > from mine eyes <5869 <ayin >.

41 Thus <2088 zeh > have I been twenty <6242 <esriym > years

<8141 shaneh > in thy house <1004 bayith >; I served <5647 <abad

shaneh > for thy cattle <6629 tso>n >: and thou hast changed

<2498 chalaph > my wages <4909 maskoreth > ten <6235 <eser >

times <4489 moneh >.

42 Except <3884 luwle> > the God <0430 >elohiym > of my father

<1>, the God <0430 >elohiym > of Abraham <85>, and the fear

<6343 pachad > of Isaac <3327 Yitschaq >, had been <1961 hayah >

with me, surely <3588 kiy > thou hadst sent <7971 shalach > me

away now <6258 <attah > empty <7387 reyqam >. God <0430 >elohiym

labour <3018 y@giya< > of my hands <3709 kaph >, and rebuked

<3198 yakach > [thee] yesternight <0570 >emesh >.

43. And Laban <3837 Laban > answered <6030 <anah > and said

<0559 >amar > unto Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob >, [These] daughters

<1363 gobahh > [are] my daughters <1363 gobahh >, and [these]

children <1121 ben > [are] my children <1121 ben >, and [these]

cattle <6629 tso>n > [are] my cattle <6629 tso>n >, and all

<3605 kol > that thou seest <7200 ra>ah > [is] mine: and what

<4100 mah > can I do <6213 <asah > this day <3117 yowm > unto

these my daughters <1363 gobahh >, or <0176 >ow > unto their

children <1121 ben > which <0834 >aher > they have born <3205

yalad >?

44 Now <6258 <attah > therefore come <3212 yalak > thou, let us

make <3772 karath > a covenant <1285 b@riyth >, I and thou; and

let it be for a witness <5707 <ed > between <0996 beyn > me and

thee.

45 And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > took <3947 laqach > a stone <68>,

and set <7311 ruwm > it up [for] a pillar <4676 matstsebah >.

46 And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > said <0559 >amar > unto his

brethren <0251 >ach >, Gather <3950 laqat > stones <68>; and

they took <3947 laqach > stones <68>, and made <6213 <asah > an

heap <1530 gal >: and they did eat <0398 >akal > there <8033

sham > upon the heap <1530 gal >.

47 And Laban <3837 Laban > called <7121 qara> > it

Jegarsahadutha <3026 Y@gar Sahaduwtha> >: but Jacob <3290

Ya<aqob > called <7121 qara> > it Galeed <1567 Gal<ed >.

48 And Laban <3837 Laban > said <0559 >amar >, This <2088 zeh >

heap <1530 gal > [is] a witness <5707 <ed > between <0996 beyn >

me and thee this day <3117 yowm >. Therefore was the name <8034

shem > of it called <7121 qara> > Galeed <1567 Gal<ed >;

49 And Mizpah <4709 Mitspah >; for he said <0559 >amar >, The

LORD <3068 Y@hovah > watch <6822 tsaphah > between <0996 beyn >

me and thee, when <3588 kiy > we are absent <5641 cathar > one

50 If <0518 >im > thou shalt afflict <6031 <anah > my daughters

<1363 gobahh >, or if <0518 >im > thou shalt take <3947 laqach >

[other] wives <0802 >ishshah > beside <5921 <al > my daughters

<1363 gobahh >, no <3808 lo> > man <0376 >iysh > [is] with us;

see <7200 ra>ah >, God <0430 >elohiym > [is] witness <5707 <ed >

betwixt <0996 beyn > me and thee.

51 And Laban <3837 Laban > said <0559 >amar > to Jacob <3290

Ya<aqob >, Behold <2009 hinneh > this <2088 zeh > heap <1530 gal

52 This <2088 zeh > heap <1530 gal > [be] witness <5707 <ed >,

and [this <2088 zeh >] pillar <4676 matstsebah > [be] witness

<5711 <Adah >, that I will not pass <5674 <abar > over <5674

<abar > this <2088 zeh > heap <1530 gal > to thee, and that thou

shalt not pass <5674 <abar > over <5674 <abar > this <2088 zeh >

heap <1530 gal > and this <2063 zo>th > pillar <4676 matstsebah

53 The God <0430 >elohiym > of Abraham <85>, and the God <0430

>elohiym > of their father <1>, judge <8199 shaphat > betwixt

<0996 beyn > us. And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > sware <7650 shaba< >

by the fear <6343 pachad > of his father <1> Isaac <3327

Yitschaq >.

54 Then Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > offered <2076 zabach > sacrifice

<2077 zebach > upon the mount <2022 har >, and called <7121

qara> > his brethren <0251 >ach > to eat <0398 >akal > bread

<3899 lechem >: and they did eat <0398 >akal > bread <3899

lechem >, and tarried <3885 luwn > all <3885 luwn > night in the

mount <2022 har >.

55 And early <7925 shakam > in the morning <1242 boqer > Laban

<3837 Laban > rose <7925 shakam > up, and kissed <5401 nashaq >

his sons <1121 ben > and his daughters <1363 gobahh >, and

blessed <1288 barak > them: and Laban <3837 Laban > departed

<3212 yalak >, and returned <7725 shuwb > unto his place <4725

Genesis 32

1. And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > went <1980 halak > on his way

<1870 derek >, and the angels <4397 mal>ak > of God <0430

>elohiym > met <6293 paga< > him.

2 And when <0834 >aher > Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > saw <7200 ra>ah

the name <8034 shem > of that place <4725 maqowm > Mahanaim

<4266 Machanayim >.

3. And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > sent <7971 shalach > messengers

<4397 mal>ak > before <6440 paniym > him to Esau <6215 <Esav >

his brother <0251 >ach > unto the land <0776 >erets > of Seir

<8165 Se<iyr >, the country <7704 sadeh > of Edom <0123 >Edom >.

4 And he commanded <6680 tsavah > them, saying <0559 >amar >,

Thus <3541 koh > shall ye speak <0559 >amar > unto my lord <0113

>adown > Esau <6215 <Esav >; Thy servant <5650 <ebed > Jacob

<3290 Ya<aqob > saith <0559 >amar > thus <3541 koh >, I have

sojourned <1481 guwr > with Laban <3837 Laban >, and stayed

<0309 >achar > there until <5704 <ad > now <6258 <attah >:

5 And I have <1961 hayah > oxen <7794 showr >, and asses <2543

chamowr >, flocks <6629 tso>n >, and menservants <5650 <ebed >,

and womenservants <8198 shiphchah >: and I have <1961 hayah >

sent <7971 shalach > to tell <5046 nagad > my lord <0113 >adown

sight <5869 <ayin >.

6 And the messengers <4397 mal>ak > returned <7725 shuwb > to

Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob >, saying <0559 >amar >, We came <0935 bow>

four <0702 >arba< > hundred <3967 me>ah > men <0376 >iysh > with

him.

7 Then Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > was greatly <3966 m@<od > afraid

<3372 yare> > and distressed <3334 yatsar >: and he divided

<2673 chatsah > the people <5971 <am > that [was] with him, and

the flocks <6629 tso>n >, and herds <1241 baqar >, and the

camels <1581 gamal >, into two <8147 sh@nayim > bands <4264

machaneh >;

8 And said <0559 >amar >, If <0518 >im > Esau <6215 <Esav >

come <0935 bow> > to the one <0259 >echad > company <4264

machaneh >, and smite <5221 nakah > it, then the other company

<4264 machaneh > which is left <7604 sha>ar > shall escape <6413

p@leytah >.

9. And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > said <0559 >amar >, O God <0430

10 I am not worthy <6994 qaton > of the least <6994 qaton > of

all <3605 kol > the mercies <2617 checed >, and of all <3605 kol

<6213 <asah > unto thy servant <5650 <ebed >; for with my staff

<4731 maqqel > I passed <5674 <abar > over <5674 <abar > this

<2088 zeh > Jordan <3383 Yarden >; and now <6258 <attah > I am

become <1961 hayah > two <8147 sh@nayim > bands <4264 machaneh >.

11 Deliver <5337 natsal > me, I pray <4994 na> > thee, from the

hand <3027 yad > of my brother <0251 >ach >, from the hand <3027

yad > of Esau <6215 <Esav >: for I fear <3373 yare> > him, lest

<6435 pen > he will come <0935 bow> > and smite <5221 nakah > me,

[and] the mother <0517 >em > with the children <1121 ben >.

12 And thou saidst <0559 >amar >, I will surely do thee good

<3190 yatab >, and make <7760 suwm > thy seed <2233 zera< > as

the sand <2344 chowl > of the sea <3220 yam >, which <0834 >aher

<7230 rob >.

13. And he lodged <3885 luwn > there <8033 sham > that same

<1931 huw> > night <3915 layil >; and took <3947 laqach > of

that which came <0935 bow> > to his hand <3027 yad > a present

14 Two hundred <3967 me>ah > she goats <5795 <ez >, and twenty

15 Thirty <7970 sh@lowshiym > milch <3243 yanaq > camels <1581

kine <6510 parah >, and ten <6235 <eser > bulls <6499 par >,

twenty <6242 <esriym > she asses <0860 >athown >, and ten <6235

<eser > foals <5895 <ayir >.

16 And he delivered <5414 nathan > [them] into the hand <3027

yad > of his servants <5650 <ebed >, every drove <5739 <eder >

by themselves <0905 bad >; and said <0559 >amar > unto his

servants <5650 <ebed >, Pass <5674 <abar > over <5674 <abar >

before <6440 paniym > me, and put <7760 suwm > a space <7305

revach > betwixt <0996 beyn > drove <5739 <eder > and drove

<5739 <eder >.

17 And he commanded <6680 tsavah > the foremost <7223 ri>shown

brother <0251 >ach > meeteth <6298 pagash > thee, and asketh

<7592 sha>al > thee, saying <0559 >amar >, Whose <4310 miy >

[art] thou? and whither <0575 >an > goest <3212 yalak > thou?

and whose <4310 miy > [are] these <0428 >el-leh > before <6440

paniym > thee?

18 Then thou shalt say <0559 >amar >, [They be] thy servant

<5650 <ebed > Jacob's <3290 Ya<aqob >; it [is] a present <4503

minchah > sent <7971 shalach > unto my lord <0113 >adown > Esau

<6215 <Esav >: and, behold <2009 hinneh >, also <1571 gam > he

[is] behind <0310 >achar > us.

19 And so <1571 gam > commanded <6680 tsavah > he the second

<8145 sheniy >, and the third <7992 sh@liyshiy >, and all <3605

kol > that followed the droves <5739 <eder >, saying <0559 >amar

20 And say <0559 >amar > ye moreover <1571 gam >, Behold <2009

hinneh >, thy servant <5650 <ebed > Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > [is]

behind <0310 >achar > us. For he said <0559 >amar >, I will

appease <6440 paniym > him with the present <4503 minchah > that

goeth <1980 halak > before <6440 paniym > me, and afterward I

will see <7200 ra>ah > his face <6440 paniym >; peradventure

<0194 >uwlay > he will accept <5375 nasa> > of me.

21 So went <5674 <abar > the present <4503 minchah > over <5674

<abar > before him: and himself <1931 huw> > lodged <3885 luwn >

that night <3915 layil > in the company <4264 machaneh >.

22 And he rose <6965 quwm > up that night <3915 layil >, and

took <3947 laqach > his two <8147 sh@nayim > wives <0802

>ishshah >, and his two <8147 sh@nayim > womenservants <8198

shiphchah >, and his eleven sons <3206 yeled >, and passed <5674

<abar > over <5674 <abar > the ford <4569 ma<abar > Jabbok <2999

Yabboq >.

23 And he took <3947 laqach > them, and sent <5674 <abar > them

over <5674 <abar > the brook <5158 nachal >, and sent <5674

<abar > over <5674 <abar > that he had.

24. And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > was left <3498 yathar > alone

<0905 bad >; and there wrestled <79> a man <0376 >iysh > with

him until <5704 <ad > the breaking <5927 <alah > of the day

<7837 shachar >.

25 And when he saw <7200 ra>ah > that he prevailed <3201 yakol

of Jacob's <3290 Ya<aqob > thigh <3409 yarek > was out of joint

<3363 yaqa< >, as he wrestled <79> with him.

26 And he said <0559 >amar >, Let me go <7971 shalach >, for

the day <7837 shachar > breaketh <5927 <alah >. And he said

<0559 >amar >, I will not let thee go <7971 shalach >, except

thou bless <1288 barak > me.

27 And he said <0559 >amar > unto him, What <4100 mah > [is]

thy name <8034 shem >? And he said <0559 >amar >, Jacob <3290

Ya<aqob >.

28 And he said <0559 >amar >, Thy name <8034 shem > shall be

called <0559 >amar > no <3808 lo> > more <5750 <owd > Jacob

<3290 Ya<aqob >, but Israel <3478 Yisra>el >: for as a prince

hast thou power <8280 sarah > with God <0430 >elohiym > and with

men <0582 >enowsh >, and hast prevailed <3201 yakol >.

29 And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > asked <7592 sha>al > [him], and

said <0559 >amar >, Tell <5046 nagad > [me], I pray <4994 na> >

thee, thy name <8034 shem >. And he said <0559 >amar >,

Wherefore <4100 mah > [is] it [that] thou dost ask <7592 sha>al

there <8033 sham >.

30 And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > called <7121 qara> > the name

<8034 shem > of the place <4725 maqowm > Peniel <6439 P@nuw>el >:

for I have seen <7200 ra>ah > God <0430 >elohiym > face <6440

paniym > to face <6440 paniym >, and my life <5315 nephesh > is

preserved <5337 natsal >.

31 And as he passed <5674 <abar > over <5674 <abar > Penuel

<6439 P@nuw>el > the sun <8121 shemesh > rose <2224 zarach >

upon him, and he halted <6761 tsela< > upon his thigh <3409

32 Therefore the children <1121 ben > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el

<3117 yowm >: because <3588 kiy > he touched <5060 naga< > the

hollow <3709 kaph > of Jacob's <3290 Ya<aqob > thigh <3409 yarek

Genesis 33

1. And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > lifted <5375 nasa> > up his eyes

<5869 <ayin >, and looked <7200 ra>ah >, and, behold <2009

hinneh >, Esau <6215 <Esav > came <0935 bow> >, and with him

four <0702 >arba< > hundred <3967 me>ah > men <0376 >iysh >. And

he divided <2673 chatsah > the children <3206 yeled > unto Leah

<3812 Le>ah >, and unto Rachel <7354 Rachel >, and unto the two

<8147 sh@nayim > handmaids <8198 shiphchah >.

2 And he put <7760 suwm > the handmaids <8198 shiphchah > and

their children <3206 yeled > foremost <7223 ri>shown >, and Leah

<3812 Le>ah > and her children <3206 yeled > after <0314

>acharown >, and Rachel <7354 Rachel > and Joseph <3130 Yowceph

3 And he passed <5674 <abar > over <5674 <abar > before <6440

paniym > them, and bowed <7812 shachah > himself to the ground

<0776 >erets > seven <7651 sheba< > times <6471 pa<am >, until

<5704 <ad > he came <5066 nagash > near <5066 nagash > to his

brother <0251 >ach >.

4 And Esau <6215 <Esav > ran <7323 ruwts > to meet <7125 qir>ah

on <5921 <al > his neck <6677 tsavva>r >, and kissed <5401

nashaq > him: and they wept <1058 bakah >.

5. And he lifted <5375 nasa> > up his eyes <5869 <ayin >, and

saw <7200 ra>ah > the women <0802 >ishshah > and the children

<3206 yeled >; and said <0559 >amar >, Who <4310 miy > [are]

those <0428 >el-leh > with thee? And he said <0559 >amar >, The

children <3206 yeled > which <0834 >aher > God <0430 >elohiym >

hath graciously <2603 chanan > given <2603 chanan > thy servant

<5650 <ebed >.

6 Then the handmaidens <8198 shiphchah > came <5066 nagash >

near <5066 nagash >, they and their children <3206 yeled >, and

they bowed <7812 shachah > themselves.

7 And Leah <3812 Le>ah > also <1571 gam > with her children

<3206 yeled > came <5066 nagash > near <5066 nagash >, and bowed

<7812 shachah > themselves: and after <0310 >achar > came <5066

nagash > Joseph <3130 Yowceph > near <5066 nagash > and Rachel

<7354 Rachel >, and they bowed <7812 shachah > themselves.

8 And he said <0559 >amar >, What <4310 miy > [meanest] thou by

all <3605 kol > this <2088 zeh > drove <4264 machaneh > which

<0834 >aher > I met <6298 pagash >? And he said <0559 >amar >,

[These are] to find <4672 matsa> > grace <2580 chen > in the

sight <5869 <ayin > of my lord <0113 >adown >.

9 And Esau <6215 <Esav > said <0559 >amar >, I have <3426 yesh

10 And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > said <0559 >amar >, Nay <0408 >al

have found <4672 matsa> > grace <2580 chen > in thy sight <5869

<ayin >, then receive <3947 laqach > my present <4503 minchah >

at my hand <3027 yad >: for therefore I have seen <7200 ra>ah >

thy face <6440 paniym >, as though I had seen <7200 ra>ah > the

face <6440 paniym > of God <0430 >elohiym >, and thou wast

pleased <7521 ratsah > with me.

11 Take <3947 laqach >, I pray <4994 na> > thee, my blessing

<1293 B@rakah > that is brought <0935 bow> > to thee; because

<3588 kiy > God <0430 >elohiym > hath dealt graciously <2603

chanan > with me, and because <3588 kiy > I have <3426 yesh >

enough <3605 kol >. And he urged <6484 patsar > him, and he took

<3947 laqach > [it].

12 And he said <0559 >amar >, Let us take our journey <5265

naca< >, and let us go <3212 yalak >, and I will go <3212 yalak

13 And he said <0559 >amar > unto him, My lord <0113 >adown >

knoweth <3045 yada< > that the children <3206 yeled > [are]

tender <7390 rak >, and the flocks <6629 tso>n > and herds <1241

baqar > with young <5763 <uwl > [are] with me: and if <0518 >im

day <3117 yowm >, all <3605 kol > the flock <6629 tso>n > will

die <4191 muwth >.

14 Let my lord <0113 >adown >, I pray <4994 na> > thee, pass

<5674 <abar > over <5674 <abar > before <6440 paniym > his

servant <5650 <ebed >: and I will lead <5095 nahal > on softly

<0328 >at >, according <7272 regel > as the cattle <4399

m@la>kah > that goeth before <6440 paniym > me and the children

<3206 yeled > be able <7272 regel > to endure <7272 regel >,

until <5704 <ad > I come <0935 bow> > unto my lord <0113 >adown

15 And Esau <6215 <Esav > said <0559 >amar >, Let me now <4994

na> > leave <3322 yatsag > with thee [some] of the folk <5971

<am > that [are] with me. And he said <0559 >amar >, What <4100

mah > needeth it? let me find <4672 matsa> > grace <2580 chen >

in the sight <5869 <ayin > of my lord <0113 >adown >.

16. So Esau <6215 <Esav > returned <7725 shuwb > that day <3117

yowm > on his way <1870 derek > unto Seir <8165 Se<iyr >.

17 And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > journeyed <5265 naca< > to Succoth

<5523 Cukkowth >, and built <1129 banah > him an house <1004

bayith >, and made <6213 <asah > booths <5521 cukkah > for his

cattle <4735 miqneh >: therefore the name <8034 shem > of the

place <4725 maqowm > is called <7121 qara> > Succoth <5523

Cukkowth >.

18 And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > came <0935 bow> > to Shalem <8003

shalem >, a city <5892 <iyr > of Shechem <7927 Sh@kem >, which

<0834 >aher > [is] in the land <0776 >erets > of Canaan <3667

K@na<an >, when he came <0935 bow> > from Padanaram <6307 Paddan

<iyr >.

19 And he bought <7069 qanah > a parcel <2513 chelqah > of a

field <7704 sadeh >, where <0834 >aher > he had spread <5186

natah > his tent <0168 >ohel >, at the hand <3027 yad > of the

children <1121 ben > of Hamor <2544 Chamowr >, Shechem's <7927

Sh@kem > father <1>, for an hundred <3967 me>ah > pieces of

money <7192 q@siytah >.

20 And he erected <5324 natsab > there <8033 sham > an altar

<4196 mizbeach >, and called <7121 qara> > it Eleloheisrael

<0415 >El >elohey Yisra>el >.

Genesis 34

1. And Dinah <1783 Diynah > the daughter <1323 bath > of Leah

<3812 Le>ah >, which <0834 >aher > she bare <3205 yalad > unto

Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob >, went <3318 yatsa> > out to see <7200

ra>ah > the daughters <1363 gobahh > of the land <0776 >erets >.

2 And when Shechem <7927 Sh@kem > the son <1121 ben > of Hamor

<2544 Chamowr > the Hivite <2340 Chivviy >, prince <5387 nasiy>

<3947 laqach > her, and lay <7901 shakab > with her, and defiled

<6031 <anah > her.

3 And his soul <5315 nephesh > clave <1692 dabaq > unto Dinah

<1783 Diynah > the daughter <1323 bath > of Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob

spake <1696 dabar > kindly unto the damsel <5291 na<arah >.

4 And Shechem <7927 Sh@kem > spake <0559 >amar > unto his

father <1> Hamor <2544 Chamowr >, saying <0559 >amar >, Get

<3947 laqach > me this <2063 zo>th > damsel <3207 yaldah > to

wife <0802 >ishshah >.

5 And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > heard <8085 shama< > that he had

defiled <2930 tame> > Dinah <1783 Diynah > his daughter <1323

bath >: now his sons <1121 ben > were with his cattle <4735

miqneh > in the field <7704 sadeh >: and Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob >

held <2790 charash > his peace <2790 charash > until <5704 <ad >

they were come <0935 bow> >.

6. And Hamor <2544 Chamowr > the father <1> of Shechem <7927

Sh@kem > went <3318 yatsa> > out unto Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > to

commune <1696 dabar > with him.

7 And the sons <1121 ben > of Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > came <0935

bow> > out of the field <7704 sadeh > when they heard <8085

shama< > [it]: and the men <0582 >enowsh > were grieved <6087

<atsab >, and they were very <3966 m@<od > wroth <2734 charah >,

because <3588 kiy > he had wrought <6213 <asah > folly <5039

n@balah > in Israel <3478 Yisra>el > in lying <7901 shakab >

with Jacob's <3290 Ya<aqob > daughter <1323 bath >; which <3651

ken > thing <3651 ken > ought not to be done <6213 <asah >.

8 And Hamor <2544 Chamowr > communed <1696 dabar > with them,

saying <0559 >amar >, The soul <5315 nephesh > of my son <1121

ben > Shechem <7927 Sh@kem > longeth <2836 chashaq > for your

daughter <1323 bath >: I pray <4994 na> > you give <5414 nathan

9 And make ye marriages <2859 chathan > with us, [and] give

<5414 nathan > your daughters <1363 gobahh > unto us, and take

<3947 laqach > our daughters <1363 gobahh > unto you.

10 And ye shall dwell <3427 yashab > with us: and the land

<0776 >erets > shall be before <6440 paniym > you; dwell <3427

yashab > and trade <5503 cachar > ye therein, and get you

possessions <0270 >achaz > therein.

11 And Shechem <7927 Sh@kem > said <0559 >amar > unto her

father <1> and unto her brethren <0251 >ach >, Let me find <4672

matsa> > grace <2580 chen > in your eyes <5869 <ayin >, and what

<0834 >aher > ye shall say <0559 >amar > unto me I will give

<5414 nathan >.

12 Ask me never so much dowry <4119 mohar > and gift <4976

mattan >, and I will give <5414 nathan > according as ye shall

say <0559 >amar > unto me: but give <5414 nathan > me the damsel

<5291 na<arah > to wife <0802 >ishshah >.

13 And the sons <1121 ben > of Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > answered

<6030 <anah > Shechem <7927 Sh@kem > and Hamor <2544 Chamowr >

his father <1> deceitfully <4820 mirmah >, and said <1696 dabar

<1783 Diynah > their sister <0269 >achowth >:

14 And they said <0559 >amar > unto them, We cannot do <6213

<asah > this <2088 zeh > thing <1697 dabar >, to give <5414

nathan > our sister <0269 >achowth > to one <0376 >iysh > that

is uncircumcised <6190 <orlah >; for that [were] a reproach

<2781 cherpah > unto us:

15 But in this <2063 zo>th > will we consent <0225 >uwth > unto

you: If <0518 >im > ye will be as we [be], that every <3605 kol

16 Then will we give <5414 nathan > our daughters <1363 gobahh

gobahh > to us, and we will dwell <3427 yashab > with you, and

we will become <1961 hayah > one <0259 >echad > people <5971 <am

17 But if <0518 >im > ye will not hearken <8085 shama< > unto

us, to be circumcised <4135 muwl >; then will we take <3947

laqach > our daughter <1323 bath >, and we will be gone <1980

halak >.

18. And their words <1697 dabar > pleased Hamor <2544 Chamowr >,

and Shechem <7927 Sh@kem > Hamor's <2544 Chamowr > son <1121

ben >.

19 And the young <5288 na<ar > man deferred <0309 >achar > not

to do <6213 <asah > the thing <1697 dabar >, because <3588 kiy >

he had delight <2654 chaphets > in Jacob's <3290 Ya<aqob >

daughter <1323 bath >: and he [was] more <3513 kabad >

honourable <3513 kabad > than all <3605 kol > the house <1004

bayith > of his father <1>.

20 And Hamor <2544 Chamowr > and Shechem <7927 Sh@kem > his son

<1121 ben > came <0935 bow> > unto the gate <8179 sha<ar > of

their city <5892 <iyr >, and communed <1696 dabar > with the men

21 These <0428 >el-leh > men <0582 >enowsh > [are] peaceable

for the land <0776 >erets >, behold <2009 hinneh >, [it is]

large <7342 rachab > enough <3027 yad > for them; let us take

<3947 laqach > their daughters <1363 gobahh > to us for wives

<0802 >ishshah >, and let us give <5414 nathan > them our

daughters <1363 gobahh >.

22 Only <0389 >ak > herein <2063 zo>th > will the men <0582

23 [Shall] not their cattle <4735 miqneh > and their substance

theirs [be] ours? only <0389 >ak > let us consent <0225 >uwth >

24 And unto Hamor <2544 Chamowr > and unto Shechem <7927 Sh@kem

25. And it came <1961 hayah > to pass on the third <7992

sh@liyshiy > day <3117 yowm >, when they were sore <3510 ka>ab >,

that two <8147 sh@nayim > of the sons <1121 ben > of Jacob

26 And they slew <2026 harag > Hamor <2544 Chamowr > and

Shechem <7927 Sh@kem > his son <1121 ben > with the edge <6310

peh > of the sword <2719 chereb >, and took <3947 laqach > Dinah

<1783 Diynah > out of Shechem's <7927 Sh@kem > house <1004

27 The sons <1121 ben > of Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > came <0935

the city <5892 <iyr >, because <0834 >aher > they had defiled

28 They took <3947 laqach > their sheep <6629 tso>n >, and

their oxen <1241 baqar >, and their asses <2543 chamowr >, and

that which <0834 >aher > [was] in the city <5892 <iyr >, and

that which <0834 >aher > [was] in the field <7704 sadeh >,

29 And all <3605 kol > their wealth <2428 chayil >, and all

<0802 >ishshah > took they captive <7617 shabah >, and spoiled

<0962 bazaz > even all <3605 kol > that [was] in the house <1004

bayith >.

30 And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > said <0559 >amar > to Simeon <8095

Shim<own > and Levi <3878 Leviy >, Ye have troubled <5916 <akar

[being] few <4962 math > in number <4557 micpar >, they shall

gather <0622 >acaph > themselves together against <5921 <al > me,

and slay <5221 nakah > me; and I shall be destroyed <8045

shamad >, I and my house <1004 bayith >.

31 And they said <0559 >amar >, Should he deal <6213 <asah >

with our sister <0269 >achowth > as with an harlot <2181 zanah >?

Genesis 35

1. And God <0430 >elohiym > said <0559 >amar > unto Jacob <3290

Ya<aqob >, Arise <6965 quwm >, go <5927 <alah > up to Bethel

2 Then Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > said <0559 >amar > unto his

3 And let us arise <6965 quwm >, and go <5927 <alah > up to

Bethel <1008 Beyth->El >; and I will make <6213 <asah > there

4 And they gave <5414 nathan > unto Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > all

which <0834 >aher > [were] in their hand <3027 yad >, and [all

13 And God <0430 >elohiym > went <5927 <alah > up from him in

Genesis 37

1. And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > dwelt <3427 yashab > in the land

<0776 >erets > wherein his father <1> was a stranger <4033

maguwr >, in the land <0776 >erets > of Canaan <3667 K@na<an >.

2 These <0428 >el-leh > [are] the generations <8435 towl@dah >

of Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob >. Joseph <3130 Yowceph >, [being]

seventeen <7651 sheba< > years <8141 shaneh > old <1121 ben >,

was feeding <7462 ra<ah > the flock <6629 tso>n > with his

brethren <0251 >ach >; and the lad <5288 na<ar > [was] with the

sons <1121 ben > of Bilhah <1090 Bilhah >, and with the sons

<1121 ben > of Zilpah <2153 Zilpah >, his father's <1> wives

<0802 >ishshah >: and Joseph <3130 Yowceph > brought <0935 bow>

3 Now Israel <3478 Yisra>el > loved <0157 >ahab > Joseph <3130

Yowceph > more than all <3605 kol > his children <1121 ben >,

because <3588 kiy > he [was] the son <1121 ben > of his old

<2208 zaqun > age: and he made <6213 <asah > him a coat <3801

k@thoneth > of [many] colours <6446 pac >.

4 And when his brethren <0251 >ach > saw <7200 ra>ah > that

their father <1> loved <0157 >ahab > him more than all <3605 kol

> his brethren <0251 >ach >, they hated <8130 sane> > him, and

could <3201 yakol > not speak <1696 dabar > peaceably <7965

shalowm > unto him.

5. And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > dreamed <2492 chalam > a dream

<2472 chalowm >, and he told <5046 nagad > [it] his brethren

<0251 >ach >: and they hated <8130 sane> > him yet <5750 <owd >

the more <3254 yacaph >.

6 And he said <0559 >amar > unto them, Hear <8085 shama< >, I

pray <4994 na> > you, this <2088 zeh > dream <2472 chalowm >

which <0834 >aher > I have dreamed <2492 chalam >:

7 For, behold <2009 hinneh >, we [were] binding <0481 >alam >

sheaves <0485 >alummah > in the field <7704 sadeh >, and, lo

<2009 hinneh >, my sheaf <0485 >alummah > arose <6965 quwm >,

and also <1571 gam > stood <5324 natsab > upright; and, behold

<2009 hinneh >, your sheaves <0485 >alummah > stood round <5437

cabab > about, and made obeisance <7812 shachah > to my sheaf

<0485 >alummah >.

8 And his brethren <0251 >ach > said <0559 >amar > to him,

Shalt thou indeed reign <4427 malak > over <5921 <al > us? or

shalt thou indeed have dominion <4910 mashal > over us? And they

hated <8130 sane> > him yet <5750 <owd > the more <3254 yacaph >

for his dreams <2472 chalowm >, and for his words <1697 dabar >.

9 And he dreamed <2492 chalam > yet <5750 <owd > another <0312

>acher > dream <2472 chalowm >, and told <5608 caphar > it his

brethren <0251 >ach >, and said <0559 >amar >, Behold <2009

hinneh >, I have dreamed <2492 chalam > a dream <2472 chalowm >

more <5750 <owd >; and, behold <2009 hinneh >, the sun <8121

shemesh > and the moon <3394 yareach > and the eleven stars

<3556 kowkab > made obeisance <7812 shachah > to me.

10 And he told <5608 caphar > [it] to his father <1>, and to

his brethren <0251 >ach >: and his father <1> rebuked <1605

ga<ar > him, and said <0559 >amar > unto him, What <4100 mah >

[is] this <2088 zeh > dream <2472 chalowm > that thou hast

dreamed <2492 chalam >? Shall I and thy mother <0517 >em > and

thy brethren <0251 >ach > indeed come <0935 bow> > to bow <7812

shachah > down <7812 shachah > ourselves to thee to the earth

<0776 >erets >?

11 And his brethren <0251 >ach > envied <7065 qana> > him; but

his father <1> observed <8104 shamar > the saying <1697 dabar >.

12. And his brethren <0251 >ach > went <3212 yalak > to feed

<7462 ra<ah > their father's <1> flock <6629 tso>n > in Shechem

<7927 Sh@kem >.

13 And Israel <3478 Yisra>el > said <0559 >amar > unto Joseph

<3130 Yowceph >, Do not thy brethren <0251 >ach > feed <7462

ra<ah > [the flock] in Shechem <7927 Sh@kem >? come <3212 yalak

<0559 >amar > to him, Here <2009 hinneh > [am I].

14 And he said <0559 >amar > to him, Go <3212 yalak >, I pray

<4994 na> > thee, see <7200 ra>ah > whether it be well <7965

shalowm > with thy brethren <0251 >ach >, and well <7965 shalowm

<1697 dabar > again <7725 shuwb >. So he sent <7971 shalach >

him out of the vale <6010 <emeq > of Hebron <2275 Chebrown >,

and he came <0935 bow> > to Shechem <7927 Sh@kem >.

15 And a certain man <0376 >iysh > found <4672 matsa> > him,

and, behold <2009 hinneh >, [he was] wandering <8582 ta<ah > in

the field <7704 sadeh >: and the man <0376 >iysh > asked <7592

sha>al > him, saying <0559 >amar >, What <4100 mah > seekest

<1245 baqash > thou?

16 And he said <0559 >amar >, I seek <1245 baqash > my brethren

<0251 >ach >: tell <5046 nagad > me, I pray <4994 na> > thee,

where <0375 >eyphoh > they feed <7462 ra<ah > [their flocks].

17 And the man <0376 >iysh > said <0559 >amar >, They are

departed <5265 naca< > hence <2088 zeh >; for I heard <8085

shama< > them say <0559 >amar >, Let us go <3212 yalak > to

Dothan <1886 Dothan >. And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > went <3212

yalak > after <0310 >achar > his brethren <0251 >ach >, and

found <4672 matsa> > them in Dothan <1886 Dothan >.

18 And when they saw <7200 ra>ah > him afar <7350 rachowq > off,

even before <2962 terem > he came <7126 qarab > near <7126

qarab > unto them, they conspired <5320 Naphtuchiym > against

<0834 >aher > him to slay <4191 muwth > him.

19 And they said <0559 >amar > one <0376 >iysh > to another

<0250 >Ezrachiy >, Behold <2009 hinneh >, this <1976 hallazeh >

dreamer cometh <0935 bow> >.

20 Come <3212 yalak > now <6258 <attah > therefore, and let us

slay <2026 harag > him, and cast <7993 shalak > him into some

<0259 >echad > pit <0953 bowr >, and we will say <0559 >amar >,

Some evil <7451 ra< > beast <2416 chay > hath devoured <0398

>akal > him: and we shall see <7200 ra>ah > what <4100 mah >

will become <1961 hayah > of his dreams <2472 chalowm >.

21 And Reuben <7205 R@>uwben > heard <8085 shama< > [it], and

he delivered <5337 natsal > him out of their hands <3027 yad >;

and said <0559 >amar >, Let us not kill <5221 nakah > him.

22 And Reuben <7205 R@>uwben > said <0559 >amar > unto them,

Shed <8210 shaphak > no <3808 lo> > blood <1818 dam >, [but]

cast <7993 shalak > him into <0413 >el > this <2088 zeh > pit

<0953 bowr > that [is] in the wilderness <4057 midbar >, and lay

<7971 shalach > no <3808 lo> > hand <3027 yad > upon him; that

he might rid <5337 natsal > him out of their hands <3027 yad >,

to deliver <7725 shuwb > him to his father <1> again <7725 shuwb

23. And it came <1961 hayah > to pass, when <0834 >aher >

Joseph <3130 Yowceph > was come <0935 bow> > unto his brethren

<0251 >ach >, that they stript <6584 pashat > Joseph <3130

Yowceph > out of his coat <3801 k@thoneth >, [his] coat <3801

k@thoneth > of [many] colours <6446 pac > that [was] on <5921

<al > him;

24 And they took <3947 laqach > him, and cast <7993 shalak >

him into a pit <0953 bowr >: and the pit <0953 bowr > [was]

empty <7386 reyq >, [there was] no <3808 lo> > water <4325 mayim

25 And they sat <3427 yashab > down to eat <0398 >akal > bread

<3899 lechem >: and they lifted <5375 nasa> > up their eyes

<5869 <ayin > and looked <7200 ra>ah >, and, behold <2009 hinneh

<1581 gamal > bearing <5375 nasa> > spicery <5219 n@ko>th > and

balm <6875 ts@riy > and myrrh <3910 lot >, going <1980 halak >

to carry <3381 yarad > [it] down <3381 yarad > to Egypt <4714

Mitsrayim >.

26 And Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > said <0559 >amar > unto his

brethren <0251 >ach >, What <4100 mah > profit <1215 betsa< >

[is it] if <3588 kiy > we slay <2026 harag > our brother <0251

27 Come <3212 yalak >, and let us sell <4376 makar > him to the

Ishmeelites <3459 Yishma<e>liy >, and let not our hand <3027 yad

flesh <1320 basar >. And his brethren <0251 >ach > were content

<8085 shama< >.

28 Then there passed <5674 <abar > by Midianites <4084 Midyaniy

> merchantmen <5503 cachar >; and they drew <4900 mashak > and

lifted <5927 <alah > up Joseph <3130 Yowceph > out of the pit

<0953 bowr >, and sold <4376 makar > Joseph <3130 Yowceph > to

the Ishmeelites <3459 Yishma<e>liy > for twenty <6242 <esriym >

[pieces] of silver <3701 keceph >: and they brought <0935 bow> >

Joseph <3130 Yowceph > into Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >.

29 And Reuben <7205 R@>uwben > returned <7725 shuwb > unto the

pit <0953 bowr >; and, behold <2009 hinneh >, Joseph <3130

Yowceph > [was] not in the pit <0953 bowr >; and he rent <7167

qara< > his clothes <0899 beged >.

30 And he returned <7725 shuwb > unto his brethren <0251 >ach >,

and said <0559 >amar >, The child <3206 yeled > [is] not; and I,

whither <0575 >an > shall I go <0935 bow> >?

31. And they took <3947 laqach > Joseph's <3130 Yowceph > coat

<3801 k@thoneth >, and killed <7819 shachat > a kid <8163 sa<iyr

<3801 k@thoneth > in the blood <1818 dam >;

32 And they sent <7971 shalach > the coat <3801 k@thoneth > of

[many] colours <6446 pac >, and they brought <0935 bow> > [it]

to their father <1>; and said <0559 >amar >, This <2063 zo>th >

whether it [be] thy son's <1121 ben > coat <3801 k@thoneth > or

no <3808 lo> >.

33 And he knew <5234 nakar > it, and said <0559 >amar >, [It

is] my son's <1121 ben > coat <3801 k@thoneth >; an evil <7451

ra< > beast <2416 chay > hath devoured <0398 >akal > him; Joseph

<3130 Yowceph > is without <2963 taraph > doubt rent <2963

34 And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > rent <7167 qara< > his clothes

<8071 simlah >, and put <7760 suwm > sackcloth <8242 saq > upon

his loins <4975 mothen >, and mourned <56> for his son <1121 ben

35 And all <3605 kol > his sons <1121 ben > and all <3605 kol >

his daughters <1363 gobahh > rose <6965 quwm > up to comfort

<5162 nacham > him; but he refused <3985 ma>en > to be comforted

<5162 nacham >; and he said <0559 >amar >, For I will go <3381

yarad > down <3381 yarad > into the grave <7585 sh@>owl > unto

my son <1121 ben > mourning <57>. Thus his father <1> wept <1058

36 And the Midianites <4092 M@daniy > sold <4376 makar > him

into <0413 >el > Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > unto Potiphar <6318

Powtiyphar >, an officer <5631 cariyc > of Pharaoh's <6547

Genesis 38

1. And it came <1961 hayah > to pass at that time <6256 <eth >,

that Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > went <3381 yarad > down <3381 yarad

a certain <0376 >iysh > Adullamite <5726 <Adullamiy >, whose

name <8034 shem > [was] Hirah <2437 Chiyrah >.

2 And Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > saw <7200 ra>ah > there <8033 sham

<3669 K@na<aniy >, whose name <8034 shem > [was] Shuah <7770

Shuwa< >; and he took <3947 laqach > her, and went <0935 bow> >

in unto her.

3 And she conceived <2029 harah >, and bare <3205 yalad > a son

<1121 ben >; and he called <7121 qara> > his name <8034 shem >

Er <6147 <Er >.

4 And she conceived <2030 hareh > again <5750 <owd >, and bare

<3205 yalad > a son <1121 ben >; and she called <7121 qara> >

his name <8034 shem > Onan <0209 >Ownan >.

5 And she yet <5750 <owd > again <5750 <owd > conceived <3254

yacaph >, and bare <3205 yalad > a son <1121 ben >; and called

<7121 qara> > his name <8034 shem > Shelah <7956 Shelah >: and

he was at Chezib <3580 K@ziyb >, when she bare <3205 yalad > him.

6 And Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > took <3947 laqach > a wife <0802

>ishshah > for Er <6147 <Er > his firstborn <1060 b@kowr >,

whose name <8034 shem > [was] Tamar <8559 Tamar >.

7 And Er <6147 <Er >, Judah's <3063 Y@huwdah > firstborn <1060

b@kowr >, was wicked <7451 ra< > in the sight <5869 <ayin > of

the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >; and the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > slew

<4191 muwth > him.

8 And Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > said <0559 >amar > unto Onan <0209

>Ownan >, Go <0935 bow> > in unto thy brother's <0251 >ach >

wife <0802 >ishshah >, and marry <2992 yabam > her, and raise

<6965 quwm > up seed <2233 zera< > to thy brother <0251 >ach >.

9 And Onan <0209 >Ownan > knew <3045 yada< > that the seed

<2233 zera< > should not be his; and it came <1961 hayah > to

pass, when <0518 >im > he went <0935 bow> > in unto his

brother's <0251 >ach > wife <0802 >ishshah >, that he spilled

<7843 shachath > [it] on the ground <0776 >erets >, lest <1115

biltiy > that he should give <5414 nathan > seed <2233 zera< >

to his brother <0251 >ach >.

10 And the thing which <0834 >aher > he did <6213 <asah >

displeased the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >: wherefore he slew <4191

muwth > him also <1571 gam >.

11 Then said <0559 >amar > Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > to Tamar

<8559 Tamar > his daughter <3618 kallah > in law <3618 kallah >,

Remain <3427 yashab > a widow <0490 >almanah > at thy father's

Tamar > went <3212 yalak > and dwelt <3427 yashab > in her

father's <1> house <1004 bayith >.

12. And in process <7235 rabah > of time <3117 yowm > the

daughter <1323 bath > of Shuah <7770 Shuwa< > Judah's <3063

Y@huwdah > wife <0802 >ishshah > died <4191 muwth >; and Judah

<3063 Y@huwdah > was comforted <5162 nacham >, and went <5927

<alah > up unto his sheepshearers to Timnath <8553 Timnah >, he

and his friend <7453 rea< > Hirah <2437 Chiyrah > the Adullamite

<5726 <Adullamiy >.

13 And it was told <5046 nagad > Tamar <8559 Tamar >, saying

<0559 >amar >, Behold <2009 hinneh > thy father <2524 cham > in

law <2524 cham > goeth <5927 <alah > up to Timnath <8553 Timnah

14 And she put <5493 cuwr > her widow's <0491 >almanuwth >

garments <0899 beged > off <5921 <al > from her, and covered

<3680 kacah > her with a vail <6809 tsa<iyph >, and wrapped

<5968 <alaph > herself, and sat <3427 yashab > in an open <5869

<ayin > place <6607 pethach >, which <0834 >aher > [is] by the

way <1870 derek > to Timnath <8553 Timnah >; for she saw <7200

ra>ah > that Shelah <7956 Shelah > was grown <1431 gadal >, and

she was not given <5414 nathan > unto him to wife <0802 >ishshah

15 When Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > saw <7200 ra>ah > her, he

thought <2803 chashab > her [to be] an harlot <2181 zanah >;

because <3588 kiy > she had covered <3680 kacah > her face <6440

paniym >.

16 And he turned <5186 natah > unto her by the way <1870 derek

17 And he said <0559 >amar >, I will send <7971 shalach >

[thee] a kid <1423 g@diy > from the flock <6629 tso>n >. And she

said <0559 >amar >, Wilt thou give <5414 nathan > [me] a pledge

18 And he said <0559 >amar >, What <0834 >aher > pledge <6162

<arabown > shall I give <5414 nathan > thee? And she said <0559

>amar >, Thy signet <2368 chowtham >, and thy bracelets <6616

pathiyl >, and thy staff <4294 matteh > that [is] in thine hand

<3027 yad >. And he gave <5414 nathan > [it] her, and came <0935

bow> > in unto her, and she conceived <2030 hareh > by him.

19 And she arose <6965 quwm >, and went <3212 yalak > away, and

laid <5493 cuwr > by her vail <6809 tsa<iyph > from her, and put

<3847 labash > on the garments <0899 beged > of her widowhood

<0491 >almanuwth >.

20 And Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > sent <7971 shalach > the kid

<1423 g@diy > by the hand <3027 yad > of his friend <7453 rea< >

the Adullamite <5726 <Adullamiy >, to receive <3947 laqach >

[his] pledge <6162 <arabown > from the woman's <0802 >ishshah >

hand <3027 yad >: but he found <4672 matsa> > her not.

21 Then he asked <7592 sha>al > the men <0582 >enowsh > of that

place <4725 maqowm >, saying <0559 >amar >, Where <0346 >ayeh >

[is] the harlot <6948 q@deshah >, that [was] openly <5879

<Eynayim > by the way <1870 derek > side? And they said <0559

>amar >, There was no <3808 lo> > harlot <6948 q@deshah > in

this <2088 zeh > [place].

22 And he returned <7725 shuwb > to Judah <3063 Y@huwdah >, and

said <0559 >amar >, I cannot <3808 lo> > find <4672 matsa> > her;

and also <1571 gam > the men <0582 >enowsh > of the place <4725

maqowm > said <0559 >amar >, [that] there was no <3808 lo> >

harlot <6948 q@deshah > in this <2088 zeh > [place].

23 And Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > said <0559 >amar >, Let her take

<3947 laqach > [it] to her, lest <6435 pen > we be shamed <0937

buwz >: behold <2009 hinneh >, I sent <7971 shalach > this <2088

her.

24. And it came <1961 hayah > to pass about three <7969

shalowsh > months <2320 chodesh > after, that it was told <5046

nagad > Judah <3063 Y@huwdah >, saying <0559 >amar >, Tamar

<8559 Tamar > thy daughter <3618 kallah > in law <3618 kallah >

behold <2009 hinneh >, she [is] with child <2030 hareh > by

whoredom <2183 zanuwn >. And Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > said <0559

>amar >, Bring <3318 yatsa> > her forth <3318 yatsa> >, and let

her be burnt <8313 saraph >.

25 When she [was] brought <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> >,

she sent <7971 shalach > to her father <2524 cham > in law <2524

cham >, saying <0559 >amar >, By the man <0376 >iysh >, whose

<0834 >aher > these <0428 >el-leh > [are, am] I with child <2030

hareh >: and she said <0559 >amar >, Discern <5234 nakar >, I

pray <4994 na> > thee, whose <0834 >aher > [are] these <0428 >el-

pathiyl >, and staff <4294 matteh >.

26 And Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > acknowledged <5234 nakar > [them],

and said <0559 >amar >, She hath been more righteous <6663

tsadaq > than I; because <3588 kiy > that I gave <5414 nathan >

her not to Shelah <7956 Shelah > my son <1121 ben >. And he knew

<3045 yada< > her again <3254 yacaph > no <3808 lo> > more <5750

27 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass in the time <6256 <eth >

of her travail <3205 yalad >, that, behold <2009 hinneh >, twins

<8380 ta>owm > [were] in her womb <0990 beten >.

28 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass, when she travailed <3205

yalad >, that [the one] put <5414 nathan > out [his] hand <3027

yad >: and the midwife <3205 yalad > took <3947 laqach > and

bound <7194 qashar > upon his hand <3027 yad > a scarlet <8144

shaniy > thread, saying <0559 >amar >, This <2088 zeh > came

<3318 yatsa> > out first <7223 ri>shown >.

29 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass, as he drew <7725 shuwb >

back <7725 shuwb > his hand <3027 yad >, that, behold <2009

hinneh >, his brother <0251 >ach > came <3318 yatsa> > out: and

she said <0559 >amar >, How <4100 mah > hast thou broken <6555

parats > forth <6556 perets >? [this] breach <6556 perets > [be]

upon thee: therefore his name <8034 shem > was called <7121

qara> > Pharez <6557 Perets >.

30 And afterward <0310 >achar > came <3318 yatsa> > out his

brother <0251 >ach >, that had the scarlet <8144 shaniy > thread

upon his hand <3027 yad >: and his name <8034 shem > was called

<7121 qara> > Zarah <2226 Zerach >.

Genesis 39

1. And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > was brought <3381 yarad > down

<3381 yarad > to Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >; and Potiphar <6318

Powtiyphar >, an officer <5631 cariyc > of Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh

<4713 Mitsriy >, bought <7069 qanah > him of the hands <3027 yad

had brought <3381 yarad > him down <3381 yarad > thither <8033

sham >.

2 And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > was with Joseph <3130 Yowceph >,

and he was a prosperous <6743 tsalach > man <0376 >iysh >; and

he was in the house <1004 bayith > of his master <0113 >adown >

the Egyptian <4713 Mitsriy >.

3 And his master <0113 >adown > saw <7200 ra>ah > that the LORD

<3068 Y@hovah > [was] with him, and that the LORD <3068 Y@hovah

<6743 tsalach > in his hand <3027 yad >.

4 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > found <4672 matsa> > grace <2580

chen > in his sight <5869 <ayin >, and he served <8334 sharath >

him: and he made him overseer <6485 paqad > over <5921 <al > his

house <1004 bayith >, and all <3605 kol > [that] he had <3426

yesh > he put <5414 nathan > into his hand <3027 yad >.

5 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass from the time [that] he had

<3426 yesh > made him overseer <6485 paqad > in his house <1004

bayith >, and over <5921 <al > all <3605 kol > that he had <3426

yesh >, that the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > blessed <1288 barak > the

Egyptian's <4713 Mitsriy > house <1004 bayith > for Joseph's

<3130 Yowceph > sake <1558 galal >; and the blessing <1293

B@rakah > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > was upon all <3605 kol >

that he had <3426 yesh > in the house <1004 bayith >, and in the

field <7704 sadeh >.

6 And he left <5800 <azab > all <3605 kol > that he had in

Joseph's <3130 Yowceph > hand <3027 yad >; and he knew <3045

yada< > not ought <3972 m@uwmah > he had, save the bread <3899

lechem > which <0834 >aher > he did eat <0398 >akal >. And

Joseph <3130 Yowceph > was [a] goodly [person], and well <3303

yapheh > favoured <4758 mar>eh >.

7. And it came <1961 hayah > to pass after <0310 >achar > these

<0428 >el-leh > things <1697 dabar >, that his master's <0113

<ayin > upon Joseph <3130 Yowceph >; and she said <0559 >amar >,

Lie <7901 shakab > with me.

8 But he refused <3985 ma>en >, and said <0559 >amar > unto his

master's <0113 >adown > wife <0802 >ishshah >, Behold <2005 hen

9 [There is] none <0369 >ayin > greater <1419 gadowl > in this

hath he kept <2820 chasak > back <2820 chasak > any <3972

m@uwmah > thing <3972 m@uwmah > from me but thee, because <0834

then can I do <6213 <asah > this <2063 zo>th > great <1419

gadowl > wickedness <7451 ra< >, and sin <2398 chata> > against

God <0430 >elohiym >?

10 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass, as she spake <1696 dabar

that he hearkened <8085 shama< > not unto her, to lie <7901

11 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass about this <2088 zeh >

time <3117 yowm >, that [Joseph] went <0935 bow> > into the

house <1004 bayith > to do <6213 <asah > his business <4399

m@la>kah >; and [there was] none <0369 >ayin > of the men <0582

<1004 bayith >.

12 And she caught <8610 taphas > him by his garment <0899 beged

<5800 <azab > his garment <0899 beged > in her hand <3027 yad >,

and fled <5127 nuwc >, and got <3318 yatsa> > him out.

13. And it came <1961 hayah > to pass, when she saw <7200 ra>ah

her hand <3027 yad >, and was fled <5127 nuwc > forth <2315

14 That she called <7121 qara> > unto the men <0582 >enowsh >

of her house <1004 bayith >, and spake <0559 >amar > unto them,

saying <0559 >amar >, See <7200 ra>ah >, he hath brought <0935

me, and I cried <7121 qara> > with a loud <1419 gadowl > voice

<6963 qowl >:

15 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass, when he heard <8085

shama< > that I lifted <7311 ruwm > up my voice <6963 qowl > and

cried <7121 qara> >, that he left <5800 <azab > his garment

<0899 beged > with me, and fled <5127 nuwc >, and got <3318

yatsa> > him out.

16 And she laid <3241 Yaniym > up his garment <0899 beged > by

her, until <5704 <ad > his lord <0113 >adown > came <0935 bow> >

home <1004 bayith >.

17 And she spake <1696 dabar > unto him according to these

<0428 >el-leh > words <1697 dabar >, saying <0559 >amar >, The

Hebrew <5680 <Ibriy > servant <5650 <ebed >, which <0834 >aher >

thou hast brought <0935 bow> > unto us, came <0935 bow> > in

unto me to mock <6711 tsachaq > me:

18 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass, as I lifted <7311 ruwm >

up my voice <6963 qowl > and cried <7121 qara> >, that he left

<5800 <azab > his garment <0899 beged > with me, and fled <5127

nuwc > out.

19. And it came <1961 hayah > to pass, when his master <0113

>adown > heard <8085 shama< > the words <1697 dabar > of his

wife <0802 >ishshah >, which <0834 >aher > she spake <1696 dabar

manner <1697 dabar > did <6213 <asah > thy servant <5650 <ebed >

to me; that his wrath <0639 >aph > was kindled <2734 charah >.

20 And Joseph's <3130 Yowceph > master <0113 >adown > took

<3947 laqach > him, and put <5414 nathan > him into <0413 >el >

the prison, a place <4725 maqowm > where <0834 >aher > the

king's <4428 melek > prisoners <0615 >aciyr > [were] bound <0631

21 But the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > was with Joseph <3130 Yowceph >,

and shewed <5186 natah > him mercy <2617 checed >, and gave

<5414 nathan > him favour <2580 chen > in the sight <5869 <ayin

22 And the keeper <8269 sar > of the prison committed <5414

nathan > to Joseph's <3130 Yowceph > hand <3027 yad > all <3605

kol > the prisoners <0615 >aciyr > that [were] in the prison;

and whatsoever they did <6213 <asah > there <8033 sham >, he was

the doer <6218 <asowr > [of it].

23 The keeper <8269 sar > of the prison looked <7200 ra>ah >

not to any <3972 m@uwmah > thing <3972 m@uwmah > [that was]

under his hand <3027 yad >; because <0834 >aher > the LORD <3068

Y@hovah > was with him, and [that] which <0834 >aher > he did

<6213 <asah >, the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > made [it] to prosper

<6743 tsalach >.

Genesis 40

1. And it came <1961 hayah > to pass after <0310 >achar > these

<0428 >el-leh > things <1697 dabar >, [that] the butler <4945

mashqeh > of the king <4428 melek > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >

and [his] baker <0644 >aphah > had offended <2398 chata> > their

lord <0113 >adown > the king <4428 melek > of Egypt <4714

Mitsrayim >.

2 And Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > was wroth <7107 qatsaph > against

<5921 <al > two <8147 sh@nayim > [of] his officers <5631 cariyc

<4945 mashqeh >, and against <5921 <al > the chief <8269 sar >

of the bakers <0644 >aphah >.

3 And he put <5414 nathan > them in ward <4929 mishmar > in the

house <1004 bayith > of the captain <8269 sar > of the guard

<2876 tabbach >, into <0413 >el > the prison, the place <4725

maqowm > where <0834 >aher > Joseph <3130 Yowceph > [was] bound

4 And the captain <8269 sar > of the guard <2876 tabbach >

charged <6485 paqad > Joseph <3130 Yowceph > with them, and he

served <8334 sharath > them: and they continued <1961 hayah > a

season <3117 yowm > in ward <4929 mishmar >.

5. And they dreamed <2492 chalam > a dream <2472 chalowm > both

<8147 sh@nayim > of them, each man <0376 >iysh > his dream <2472

chalowm > in one <0259 >echad > night <3915 layil >, each man

<0376 >iysh > according to the interpretation <6623 pithrown >

of his dream <2472 chalowm >, the butler <4945 mashqeh > and the

baker <0644 >aphah > of the king <4428 melek > of Egypt <4714

Mitsrayim >, which <0834 >aher > [were] bound <0631 >acar > in

the prison.

6 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > came <0935 bow> > in unto them in

the morning <1242 boqer >, and looked <7200 ra>ah > upon them,

and, behold <2009 hinneh >, they [were] sad <2196 za<aph >.

7 And he asked <7592 sha>al > Pharaoh's <6547 Par<oh > officers

<5631 cariyc > that [were] with him in the ward <4929 mishmar >

of his lord's <0113 >adown > house <1004 bayith >, saying <0559

sadly <7451 ra< > to day <3117 yowm >?

8 And they said <0559 >amar > unto him, We have dreamed <2492

chalam > a dream <2472 chalowm >, and [there is] no <0369 >ayin

me [them], I pray <4994 na> > you.

9 And the chief <8269 sar > butler <4945 mashqeh > told <5608

caphar > his dream <2472 chalowm > to Joseph <3130 Yowceph >,

and said <0559 >amar > to him, In my dream <2472 chalowm >,

behold <2009 hinneh >, a vine <1612 gephen > [was] before <6440

paniym > me;

10 And in the vine <1612 gephen > [were] three <7969 shalowsh >

branches <8299 sariyg >: and it [was] as though it budded <6524

parach >, [and] her blossoms <5322 nets > shot <5927 <alah >

forth; and the clusters <0811 >eshkowl > thereof brought <1310

bashal > forth <1310 bashal > ripe <1310 bashal > grapes <6025

<enab >:

11 And Pharaoh's <6547 Par<oh > cup <3563 kowc > [was] in my

hand <3027 yad >: and I took <3947 laqach > the grapes <6025

<enab >, and pressed <7818 sachat > them into <0413 >el >

Pharaoh's <6547 Par<oh > cup <3563 kowc >, and I gave <5414

nathan > the cup <3563 kowc > into <5921 <al > Pharaoh's <6547

Par<oh > hand <3709 kaph >.

12 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > said <0559 >amar > unto him, This

<2088 zeh > [is] the interpretation <6623 pithrown > of it: The

three <7969 shalowsh > branches <8299 sariyg > [are] three <7969

shalowsh > days <3117 yowm >:

13 Yet <5750 <owd > within three <7969 shalowsh > days <3117

Pharaoh's <6547 Par<oh > cup <3563 kowc > into his hand <3027

when <0834 >aher > thou wast <1961 hayah > his butler <4945

14 But think <2142 zakar > on me when <0834 >aher > it shall be

well <3190 yatab > with thee, and shew <6213 <asah > kindness

<2617 checed >, I pray <4994 na> > thee, unto me, and make

mention <2142 zakar > of me unto Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh >, and

bring <3318 yatsa> > me out of this <2088 zeh > house <1004

15 For indeed I was stolen <1589 ganab > away out of the land

<0776 >erets > of the Hebrews <5680 <Ibriy >: and here <6311 poh

should put <7760 suwm > me into the dungeon <0953 bowr >.

16 When the chief <8269 sar > baker <0644 >aphah > saw <7200

ra>ah > that the interpretation <6623 pithrown > was good <2896

towb >, he said <0559 >amar > unto Joseph <3130 Yowceph >, I

also <0637 >aph > [was] in my dream <2472 chalowm >, and, behold

<2009 hinneh >, [I had] three <7969 shalowsh > white <2751

choriy > baskets <5536 cal > on <5921 <al > my head <7218 ro>sh

17 And in the uppermost <5945 >elyown > basket <5536 cal >

18 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > answered <6030 <anah > and said

<0559 >amar >, This <2088 zeh > [is] the interpretation <6623

pithrown > thereof: The three <7969 shalowsh > baskets <5536 cal

19 Yet <5750 <owd > within three <7969 shalowsh > days <3117

birds <5775 <owph > shall eat <0398 >akal > thy flesh <1320

20. And it came <1961 hayah > to pass the third <7992

sh@liyshiy > day <3117 yowm >, [which was] Pharaoh's <6547

Par<oh > birthday, that he made <6213 <asah > a feast <4960

Genesis 41

1. And it came <1961 hayah > to pass at the end <7093 qets > of

two full <3117 yowm > years <8141 shaneh >, that Pharaoh <6547

Par<oh > dreamed <2492 chalam >: and, behold <2009 hinneh >, he

stood <5975 <amad > by the river <2975 y@<or >.

2 And, behold <2009 hinneh >, there came <5927 <alah > up out

of the river <2975 y@<or > seven <7651 sheba< > well <3303

yapheh > favoured <4758 mar>eh > kine <6510 parah > and

fatfleshed <1277 bariy> >; and they fed <7462 ra<ah > in a

meadow <0260 >achuw >.

3 And, behold <2009 hinneh >, seven <7651 sheba< > other <0312

>achar > them out of the river <2975 y@<or >, ill <7451 ra< >

favoured <4758 mar>eh > and leanfleshed; and stood <5975 <amad >

by the [other] kine <6510 parah > upon the brink <8193 saphah >

of the river <2975 y@<or >.

4 And the ill <7451 ra< > favoured <4758 mar>eh > and

leanfleshed kine <6510 parah > did eat <0398 >akal > up the

seven <7651 sheba< > well <3303 yapheh > favoured <4758 mar>eh >

and fat <1277 bariy> > kine <6510 parah >. So Pharaoh <6547

Par<oh > awoke <3364 yaqats >.

5 And he slept <3462 yashen > and dreamed <2492 chalam > the

second <8145 sheniy > time: and, behold <2009 hinneh >, seven

<7651 sheba< > ears <7641 shibbol > of corn came <5927 <alah >

up upon one <0259 >echad > stalk <7070 qaneh >, rank <1277

bariy> > and good <2896 towb >.

6 And, behold <2009 hinneh >, seven <7651 sheba< > thin <1851

daq > ears <7641 shibbol > and blasted <7710 shadaph > with the

east <6921 qadiym > wind sprung <6779 tsamach > up after <0310

7 And the seven thin <1851 daq > ears <7641 shibbol > devoured

<1104 bala< > the seven <7651 sheba< > rank <1277 bariy> > and

full <4392 male> > ears <7641 shibbol >. And Pharaoh <6547

Par<oh > awoke <3364 yaqats >, and, behold <2009 hinneh >, [it

was] a dream <2472 chalowm >.

8 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass in the morning <1242 boqer

> that his spirit <7307 ruwach > was troubled <6470 pa<am >; and

he sent <7971 shalach > and called <7121 qara> > for all <3605

kol > the magicians <2748 chartom > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >,

and all <3605 kol > the wise <2450 chakam > men thereof: and

Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > told <5608 caphar > them his dream <2472

chalowm >; but [there was] none <0369 >ayin > that could

interpret <6622 pathar > them unto Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh >.

9. Then spake <1696 dabar > the chief <8269 sar > butler <4945

mashqeh > unto Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh >, saying <0559 >amar >, I

do remember <2142 zakar > my faults <2399 chet> > this day <3117

yowm >:

10 Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > was wroth <7107 qatsaph > with his

servants <5650 <ebed >, and put <5414 nathan > me in ward <4929

mishmar > in the captain <8269 sar > of the guard's <2876

tabbach > house <1004 bayith >, [both] me and the chief <8269

11 And we dreamed <2492 chalam > a dream <2472 chalowm > in one

<0259 >echad > night <3915 layil >, I and he; we dreamed <2492

chalam > each man <0376 >iysh > according to the interpretation

<6623 pithrown > of his dream <2472 chalowm >.

12 And [there <8033 sham > was] there <8033 sham > with us a

young <5288 na<ar > man <0376 >iysh >, an Hebrew <5680 <Ibriy >,

servant <5650 <ebed > to the captain <8269 sar > of the guard

<2876 tabbach >; and we told <5608 caphar > him, and he

interpreted <6622 pathar > to us our dreams <2472 chalowm >; to

each man <0376 >iysh > according to his dream <2472 chalowm > he

did interpret <6622 pathar >.

13 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass, as he interpreted <6622

pathar > to us, so <3651 ken > it was; me he restored <7725

shuwb > unto mine office <3653 ken >, and him he hanged <8518

talah >.

14 Then Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > sent <7971 shalach > and called

<7121 qara> > Joseph <3130 Yowceph >, and they brought <7323

ruwts > him hastily <7323 ruwts > out of the dungeon <0953 bowr

chalaph > his raiment <8071 simlah >, and came <0935 bow> > in

unto Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh >.

15 And Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > said <0559 >amar > unto Joseph

<3130 Yowceph >, I have dreamed <2492 chalam > a dream <2472

chalowm >, and [there is] none <0369 >ayin > that can interpret

<6622 pathar > it: and I have heard <8085 shama< > say <0559

>amar > of thee, [that] thou canst understand <8085 shama< > a

dream <2472 chalowm > to interpret <6622 pathar > it.

16 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > answered <6030 <anah > Pharaoh

<6547 Par<oh >, saying <0559 >amar >, [It is] not in me: God

<0430 >elohiym > shall give Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > an answer

<6030 <anah > of peace <7965 shalowm >.

17. And Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > said <1696 dabar > unto Joseph

<3130 Yowceph >, In my dream <2472 chalowm >, behold <2009

hinneh >, I stood <5975 <amad > upon the bank <8193 saphah > of

the river <2975 y@<or >:

18 And, behold <2009 hinneh >, there came <5927 <alah > up out

of the river <2975 y@<or > seven <7651 sheba< > kine <6510 parah

<8389 to>ar >; and they fed <7462 ra<ah > in a meadow <0260

19 And, behold <2009 hinneh >, seven <7651 sheba< > other <0312

>achar > them, poor <1800 dal > and very <3966 m@<od > ill <7451

ra< > favoured <8389 to>ar > and leanfleshed <7534 raq >, such

<2007 hennah > as I never <3808 lo> > saw <7200 ra>ah > in all

<3605 kol > the land <0776 >erets > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >

for badness <7455 roa< >:

20 And the lean <7534 raq > and the ill <7451 ra< > favoured

kine <6510 parah > did eat <0398 >akal > up the first <7223

ri>shown > seven <7651 sheba< > fat <1277 bariy> > kine <6510

parah >:

21 And when they had eaten them up, it could not be known <3045

yada< > that they had eaten them; but they [were] still ill

<7451 ra< > favoured, as at the beginning <8462 t@chillah >. So

I awoke <3364 yaqats >.

22 And I saw <7200 ra>ah > in my dream <2472 chalowm >, and,

behold <2009 hinneh >, seven <7651 sheba< > ears <7641 shibbol >

came <5927 <alah > up in one <0259 >echad > stalk <7070 qaneh >,

full <4392 male> > and good <2896 towb >:

23 And, behold <2009 hinneh >, seven <7651 sheba< > ears <7641

shibbol >, withered <6798 tsanam >, thin <1851 daq >, [and]

blasted <7710 shadaph > with the east <6921 qadiym > wind,

sprung <6779 tsamach > up after <0310 >achar > them:

24 And the thin <1851 daq > ears <7641 shibbol > devoured <1104

bala< > the seven <7651 sheba< > good <2896 towb > ears <7641

shibbol >: and I told <0559 >amar > [this] unto the magicians

<2748 chartom >; but [there was] none <0369 >ayin > that could

declare <5046 nagad > [it] to me.

25 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > said <0559 >amar > unto Pharaoh

<6547 Par<oh >, The dream <2472 chalowm > of Pharaoh <6547

Par<oh > [is] one <0259 >echad >: God <0430 >elohiym > hath

shewed <5046 nagad > Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > what he [is] about

to do <6213 <asah >.

26 The seven <7651 sheba< > good <2896 towb > kine <6510 parah

<7651 sheba< > good <2896 towb > ears <7641 shibbol > [are]

seven <7651 sheba< > years <8141 shaneh >: the dream <2472

chalowm > [is] one <0259 >echad >.

27 And the seven <7651 sheba< > thin <7534 raq > and ill <7451

ra< > favoured kine <6510 parah > that came <5927 <alah > up

after <0310 >achar > them [are] seven <7651 sheba< > years <8141

shaneh >; and the seven <7651 sheba< > empty <7386 reyq > ears

<7641 shibbol > blasted <7710 shadaph > with the east <6921

qadiym > wind shall be seven <7651 sheba< > years <8141 shaneh >

of famine <7458 ra<ab >.

28 This [is] the thing <1697 dabar > which <0834 >aher > I have

spoken <1696 dabar > unto Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh >: What <0834

>aher > God <0430 >elohiym > [is] about to do <6213 <asah > he

sheweth <7200 ra>ah > unto Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh >.

29 Behold <2009 hinneh >, there come <0935 bow> > seven <7651

sheba< > years <8141 shaneh > of great <1419 gadowl > plenty

<7647 saba< > throughout all <3605 kol > the land <0776 >erets >

of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >:

30 And there shall arise <6965 quwm > after <0310 >achar > them

seven <7651 sheba< > years <8141 shaneh > of famine <7458 ra<ab

forgotten <7911 shakach > in the land <0776 >erets > of Egypt

<4714 Mitsrayim >; and the famine <7458 ra<ab > shall consume

<3615 kalah > the land <0776 >erets >;

31 And the plenty <7647 saba< > shall not be known <3045 yada<

famine <7458 ra<ab > following; for it [shall be] very <3966

m@<od > grievous <3515 kabed >.

32 And for that the dream <2472 chalowm > was doubled <8138

shanah > unto Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > twice <6471 pa<am >; [it

is] because <3588 kiy > the thing <1697 dabar > [is] established

<3559 kuwn > by God <0430 >elohiym >, and God <0430 >elohiym >

will shortly <4116 mahar > bring <6213 <asah > it to pass <6213

<asah >.

33. Now <6258 <attah > therefore let Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh >

look <7200 ra>ah > out a man <0376 >iysh > discreet <0995 biyn >

and wise <2450 chakam >, and set <7896 shiyth > him over <5921

<al > the land <0776 >erets > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >.

34 Let Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > do <6213 <asah > [this], and let

him appoint <6485 paqad > officers <6496 paqiyd > over <5921 <al

part of the land <0776 >erets > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > in

the seven <7651 sheba< > plenteous <7647 saba< > years <8141

shaneh >.

35 And let them gather <6908 qabats > all <3605 kol > the food

<0400 >okel > of those <0428 >el-leh > good <2896 towb > years

<8141 shaneh > that come <0935 bow> >, and lay <6651 tsabar > up

corn <1250 bar > under <8478 tachath > the hand <3027 yad > of

Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh >, and let them keep <8104 shamar > food

<0400 >okel > in the cities <5892 <iyr >.

36 And that food <0400 >okel > shall be for store <6487

piqqadown > to the land <0776 >erets > against the seven <7651

sheba< > years <8141 shaneh > of famine <7458 ra<ab >, which

<0834 >aher > shall be in the land <0776 >erets > of Egypt <4714

Mitsrayim >; that the land <0776 >erets > perish <3772 karath >

not through the famine <7458 ra<ab >.

37 And the thing <1697 dabar > was good <3190 yatab > in the

eyes <5869 <ayin > of Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh >, and in the eyes

<5869 <ayin > of all <3605 kol > his servants <5650 <ebed >.

38 And Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > said <0559 >amar > unto his

servants <5650 <ebed >, Can we find <4672 matsa> > [such a one]

as this <2088 zeh > [is], a man <0376 >iysh > in whom <0834

39 And Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > said <0559 >amar > unto Joseph

<3130 Yowceph >, Forasmuch <0310 >achar > as God <0430 >elohiym

40 Thou shalt be over <5921 <al > my house <1004 bayith >, and

41 And Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > said <0559 >amar > unto Joseph

<3130 Yowceph >, See <7200 ra>ah >, I have set <5414 nathan >

thee over <5921 <al > all <3605 kol > the land <0776 >erets > of

Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >.

42 And Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > took <5493 cuwr > off his ring

<2885 tabba<ath > from his hand <3027 yad >, and put <5414

nathan > it upon Joseph's <3130 Yowceph > hand <3027 yad >, and

arrayed <3847 labash > him in vestures <0899 beged > of fine

linen <8336 shesh >, and put <7760 suwm > a gold <2091 zahab >

chain <7242 rabiyd > about <5921 <al > his neck <6677 tsavva>r >;

43 And he made him to ride <7392 rakab > in the second <4932

and they cried <7121 qara> > before <6440 paniym > him, Bow <86>

44 And Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > said <0559 >amar > unto Joseph

<3130 Yowceph >, I [am] Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh >, and without

<1107 bil<adey > thee shall no <3808 lo> > man <0376 >iysh >

45 And Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > called <7121 qara> > Joseph's

<3130 Yowceph > name <8034 shem > Zaphnathpaaneah; and he gave

<5414 nathan > him to wife <0802 >ishshah > Asenath <0621

Phera< > priest <3548 kohen > of On <0204 >Own >. And Joseph

<3130 Yowceph > went <3318 yatsa> > out over <5921 <al > [all]

the land <0776 >erets > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >.

46. And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > [was] thirty <7970 sh@lowshiym >

years <8141 shaneh > old <1121 ben > when he stood <5975 <amad >

before <6440 paniym > Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > king <4428 melek >

47 And in the seven <7651 sheba< > plenteous <7647 saba< >

years <8141 shaneh > the earth <0776 >erets > brought <6213

<asah > forth <6213 <asah > by handfuls <7062 qomets >.

48 And he gathered <6908 qabats > up all <3605 kol > the food

which <0834 >aher > were in the land <0776 >erets > of Egypt

up in the same.

49 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > gathered <6651 tsabar > corn

very <3966 m@<od > much <7235 rabah >, until <5704 <ad > he left

50 And unto Joseph <3130 Yowceph > were born <3205 yalad > two

51 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > called <7121 qara> > the name

M@nashsheh >: For God <0430 >elohiym >, [said he], hath made me

forget <5382 nashah > all <3605 kol > my toil <5999 <amal >, and

52 And the name <8034 shem > of the second <8145 sheniy >

land <0776 >erets > of my affliction <6040 <oniy >.

53 And the seven <7651 sheba< > years <8141 shaneh > of

plenteousness <7647 saba< >, that was in the land <0776 >erets >

of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >, were ended <3615 kalah >.

54 And the seven <7651 sheba< > years <8141 shaneh > of dearth

<7458 ra<ab > began <2490 chalal > to come <0935 bow> >,

according as Joseph <3130 Yowceph > had said <0559 >amar >: and

the dearth <7458 ra<ab > was in all <3605 kol > lands <0776

Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > there was bread <3899 lechem >.

55 And when all <3605 kol > the land <0776 >erets > of Egypt

56 And the famine <7458 ra<ab > was over <5921 <al > all <3605

was corn <7668 sheber > in Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >, Jacob <3290

Ya<aqob > said <0559 >amar > unto his sons <1121 ben >, Why

<4100 mah > do ye look <7200 ra>ah > one upon another?

2 And he said <0559 >amar >, Behold <2009 hinneh >, I have

heard <8085 shama< > that there is corn <7668 sheber > in Egypt

<4714 Mitsrayim >: get <3381 yarad > you down <3381 yarad >

thither <8033 sham >, and buy <7666 shabar > for us from thence

<8033 sham >; that we may live <2421 chayah >, and not die <4191

muwth >.

3 And Joseph's <3130 Yowceph > ten <6235 <eser > brethren <0251

>ach > went <3381 yarad > down <3381 yarad > to buy <7666 shabar

> corn <1250 bar > in Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >.

4 But Benjamin <1144 Binyamiyn >, Joseph's <3130 Yowceph >

brother <0251 >ach >, Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > sent <7971 shalach >

not with his brethren <0251 >ach >; for he said <0559 >amar >,

Lest <6435 pen > peradventure mischief <0611 >acown > befall

<7122 qara> > him.

5 And the sons <1121 ben > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > came

<0935 bow> > to buy <7666 shabar > [corn] among <8432 tavek >

those that came <0935 bow> >: for the famine <7458 ra<ab > was

in the land <0776 >erets > of Canaan <3667 K@na<an >.

6 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > [was] the governor <7989 shalliyt

> over <5921 <al > the land <0776 >erets >, [and] he [it was]

that sold <7666 shabar > to all <3605 kol > the people <5971 <am

> of the land <0776 >erets >: and Joseph's <3130 Yowceph >

brethren <0251 >ach > came <0935 bow> >, and bowed <7812 shachah

> down <7812 shachah > themselves before him [with] their faces

<0639 >aph > to the earth <0776 >erets >.

7. And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > saw <7200 ra>ah > his brethren

<0251 >ach >, and he knew <5234 nakar > them, but made himself

strange <5234 nakar > unto them, and spake <1696 dabar > roughly

<7186 qasheh > unto them; and he said <0559 >amar > unto them,

Whence <0370 >aiyn > come <0935 bow> > ye? And they said <0559

>amar >, From the land <0776 >erets > of Canaan <3667 K@na<an >

to buy <7666 shabar > food <0400 >okel >.

8 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > knew <5234 nakar > his brethren

<0251 >ach >, but they knew <3045 yada< > not him.

9 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > remembered <2142 zakar > the

dreams <2472 chalowm > which <0834 >aher > he dreamed <2492

chalam > of them, and said <0559 >amar > unto them, Ye [are]

spies <7270 ragal >; to see <7200 ra>ah > the nakedness <6172

<ervah > of the land <0776 >erets > ye are come <0935 bow> >.

10 And they said <0559 >amar > unto him, Nay <3808 lo> >, my

lord <0113 >adown >, but to buy <7666 shabar > food <0400 >okel

> are thy servants <5650 <ebed > come <0935 bow> >.

11 We [are] all <3605 kol > one <0259 >echad > man's <0376

>iysh > sons <1121 ben >; we [are] true <3651 ken > [men], thy

servants <5650 <ebed > are no <3808 lo> > spies <7270 ragal >.

12 And he said <0559 >amar > unto them, Nay <3808 lo> >, but to

see <7200 ra>ah > the nakedness <6172 <ervah > of the land <0776

>erets > ye are come <0935 bow> >.

13 And they said <0559 >amar >, Thy servants <5650 <ebed >

[are] twelve brethren <0251 >ach >, the sons <1121 ben > of one

<0259 >echad > man <0376 >iysh > in the land <0776 >erets > of

Canaan <3667 K@na<an >; and, behold <2009 hinneh >, the youngest

<6996 qatan > [is] this day <3117 yowm > with our father <1>,

and one <0259 >echad > [is] not.

14 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > said <0559 >amar > unto them,

That [is it] that I spake <1696 dabar > unto you, saying <0559

>amar >, Ye [are] spies <7270 ragal >:

15 Hereby <2063 zo>th > ye shall be proved <0974 bachan >: By

the life <2416 chay > of Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > ye shall not go

<3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> > hence <2088 zeh >, except

your youngest <6996 qatan > brother <0251 >ach > come <0935 bow>

> hither.

16 Send <7971 shalach > one <0259 >echad > of you, and let him

fetch <3947 laqach > your brother <0251 >ach >, and ye shall be

kept <0631 >acar > in prison, that your words <1697 dabar > may

be proved <0974 bachan >, whether [there be any] truth <0571

>emeth > in you: or else by the life <2416 chay > of Pharaoh

<6547 Par<oh > surely ye [are] spies <7270 ragal >.

17 And he put <0622 >acaph > them all <0622 >acaph > together

into <0413 >el > ward <4929 mishmar > three <7969 shalowsh >

days <3117 yowm >.

18 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > said <0559 >amar > unto them the

third <7992 sh@liyshiy > day <3117 yowm >, This <2063 zo>th > do

<6213 <asah >, and live <2421 chayah >; [for] I fear <3373 yare>

> God <0430 >elohiym >:

19 If <0518 >im > ye [be] true <3651 ken > [men], let one <0259

>echad > of your brethren <0251 >ach > be bound <0631 >acar > in

the house <1004 bayith > of your prison <4929 mishmar >: go

<3212 yalak > ye, carry <0935 bow> > corn <7668 sheber > for the

famine <7459 r@abown > of your houses <1004 bayith >:

20 But bring <0935 bow> > your youngest <6996 qatan > brother

<0251 >ach > unto me; so shall your words <1697 dabar > be

verified <0539 >aman >, and ye shall not die <4191 muwth >. And

they did <6213 <asah > so <3651 ken >.

21. And they said <0559 >amar > one <0376 >iysh > to another

<0250 >Ezrachiy >, We [are] verily <61> guilty <0816 >asham >

concerning <5921 <al > our brother <0251 >ach >, in that we saw

<7200 ra>ah > the anguish <6869 tsarah > of his soul <5315

nephesh >, when he besought <2603 chanan > us, and we would not

hear <8085 shama< >; therefore is this <2063 zo>th > distress

<6869 tsarah > come <0935 bow> > upon us.

22 And Reuben <7205 R@>uwben > answered <6030 <anah > them,

saying <0559 >amar >, Spake <0559 >amar > I not unto you, saying

<0559 >amar >, Do not sin <2398 chata> > against the child <3206

yeled >; and ye would not hear <8085 shama< >? therefore <1571

gam >, behold <2009 hinneh >, also <1571 gam > his blood <1818

dam > is required <1875 darash >.

23 And they knew <3045 yada< > not that Joseph <3130 Yowceph >

understood <8085 shama< > [them]; for he spake unto them by an

interpreter <3887 luwts >.

24 And he turned <5437 cabab > himself about from them, and

wept <1058 bakah >; and returned <7725 shuwb > to them again

<7725 shuwb >, and communed <1696 dabar > with them, and took

<3947 laqach > from them Simeon <8095 Shim<own >, and bound

<0631 >acar > him before their eyes <5869 <ayin >.

25 Then Joseph <3130 Yowceph > commanded <6680 tsavah > to fill

<4390 male> > their sacks <3672 Kinn@rowth > with corn <1250 bar

>, and to restore <7725 shuwb > every man's <0376 >iysh > money

<3701 keceph > into <0413 >el > his sack <8242 saq >, and to

give <5414 nathan > them provision <6720 tseydah > for the way

<1870 derek >: and thus <3651 ken > did <6213 <asah > he unto

them.

26 And they laded <5375 nasa> > their asses <2543 chamowr >

with the corn <7668 sheber >, and departed <3212 yalak > thence

<8033 sham >.

27 And as one <0259 >echad > of them opened <6605 pathach > his

sack <8242 saq > to give <5414 nathan > his ass <2543 chamowr >

provender <4554 micpow> > in the inn <4411 malown >, he espied

<7200 ra>ah > his money <3701 keceph >; for, behold <2009 hinneh

>, it [was] in his sack's <0572 >amtachath > mouth <6310 peh >.

28 And he said <0559 >amar > unto his brethren <0251 >ach >, My

money <3701 keceph > is restored <7725 shuwb >; and, lo <2009

hinneh >, [it is] even in my sack <0572 >amtachath >: and their

heart <3820 leb > failed <3318 yatsa> > [them], and they were

afraid <2729 charad >, saying <0559 >amar > one <0376 >iysh > to

another <0250 >Ezrachiy >, What <4100 mah > [is] this <2063

zo>th > [that] God <0430 >elohiym > hath done <6213 <asah > unto

us?

29. And they came <0935 bow> > unto Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > their

father <1> unto the land <0776 >erets > of Canaan <3667 K@na<an

>, and told <5046 nagad > him all <3605 kol > that befell <7136

qarah > unto them; saying <0559 >amar >,

30 The man <0376 >iysh >, [who is] the lord <0113 >adown > of

the land <0776 >erets >, spake <1696 dabar > roughly <7186

qasheh > to us, and took <5414 nathan > us for spies <7270 ragal

> of the country <0776 >erets >.

31 And we said <0559 >amar > unto him, We [are] true <3651 ken

32 We [be] twelve brethren <0251 >ach >, sons <1121 ben > of

our father <1>; one <0259 >echad > [is] not, and the youngest

<6996 qatan > [is] this day <3117 yowm > with our father <1> in

the land <0776 >erets > of Canaan <3667 K@na<an >.

33 And the man <0376 >iysh >, the lord <0113 >adown > of the

country <0776 >erets >, said <0559 >amar > unto us, Hereby <2063

zo>th > shall I know <3045 yada< > that ye [are] true <3651 ken

brethren <0251 >ach > [here] with me, and take <3947 laqach >

[food for] the famine <7459 r@abown > of your households <1004

bayith >, and be gone <3212 yalak >:

34 And bring <0935 bow> > your youngest <6996 qatan > brother

<0251 >ach > unto me: then shall I know <3045 yada< > that ye

[are] no <3808 lo> > spies <7270 ragal >, but [that] ye [are]

true <3651 ken > [men: so] will I deliver <5414 nathan > you

your brother <0251 >ach >, and ye shall traffick <5503 cachar >

in the land <0776 >erets >.

35 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass as they emptied <7324 ruwq

> their sacks <8242 saq >, that, behold <2009 hinneh >, every

man's <0376 >iysh > bundle <6872 ts@rowr > of money <3701 keceph

father <1> saw <7200 ra>ah > the bundles <6872 ts@rowr > of

money <3701 keceph >, they were afraid <3372 yare> >.

36 And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > their father <1> said <0559 >amar

Joseph <3130 Yowceph > [is] not, and Simeon <8095 Shim<own >

[is] not, and ye will take <3947 laqach > Benjamin <1144

Binyamiyn > [away]: all <3605 kol > these things are against

<5921 <al > me.

37 And Reuben <7205 R@>uwben > spake <0559 >amar > unto his

father <1>, saying <0559 >amar >, Slay <4191 muwth > my two

<8147 sh@nayim > sons <1121 ben >, if I bring <0935 bow> > him

not to thee: deliver <5414 nathan > him into <5921 <al > my hand

<3027 yad >, and I will bring <7725 shuwb > him to thee again

<7725 shuwb >.

38 And he said <0559 >amar >, My son <1121 ben > shall not go

<3381 yarad > down <3381 yarad > with you; for his brother <0251

to the grave <7585 sh@>owl >.

Genesis 43

1. And the famine <7458 ra<ab > [was] sore <3515 kabed > in the

land <0776 >erets >.

2 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass, when <0834 >aher > they

had eaten <0398 >akal > up the corn <7668 sheber > which <0834

>aher > they had brought <0935 bow> > out of Egypt <4714

Mitsrayim >, their father <1> said <0559 >amar > unto them, Go

<7725 shuwb > again <7725 shuwb >, buy <7666 shabar > us a

little <4592 m@<at > food <0400 >okel >.

3 And Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > spake <0559 >amar > unto him,

saying <0559 >amar >, The man <0376 >iysh > did solemnly <5749

<uwd > protest <5749 <uwd > unto us, saying <0559 >amar >, Ye

shall not see <7200 ra>ah > my face <6440 paniym >, except <1115

biltiy > your brother <0251 >ach > [be] with you.

4 If <0518 >im > thou wilt send <7971 shalach > our brother

<0251 >ach > with us, we will go <3381 yarad > down <3381 yarad

> and buy <7666 shabar > thee food <0400 >okel >:

5 But if <0518 >im > thou wilt not send <7971 shalach > [him],

we will not go <3381 yarad > down <3381 yarad >: for the man

<0376 >iysh > said <0559 >amar > unto us, Ye shall not see <7200

ra>ah > my face <6440 paniym >, except <1115 biltiy > your

brother <0251 >ach > [be] with you.

6 And Israel <3478 Yisra>el > said <0559 >amar >, Wherefore

<4100 mah > dealt ye [so] ill <7489 ra<a< > with me, [as] to

tell <5046 nagad > the man <0376 >iysh > whether <5750 <owd > ye

had yet <5750 <owd > a brother <0251 >ach >?

7 And they said <0559 >amar >, The man <0376 >iysh > asked

<7592 sha>al > us straitly of our state, and of our kindred

<4138 mowledeth >, saying <0559 >amar >, [Is] your father <1>

yet alive <2416 chay >? have <3426 yesh > ye [another] brother

<0251 >ach >? and we told <5046 nagad > him according <5921 <al

dabar >: could we certainly know <3045 yada< > that he would say

<0559 >amar >, Bring <3381 yarad > your brother <0251 >ach >

down <3381 yarad >?

8 And Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > said <0559 >amar > unto Israel

<3478 Yisra>el > his father <1>, Send <7971 shalach > the lad

<5288 na<ar > with me, and we will arise <6965 quwm > and go

<3212 yalak >; that we may live <2421 chayah >, and not die

<4191 muwth >, both <1571 gam > we, and thou, [and] also <1571

gam > our little <2945 taph > ones.

9 I will be surety <6148 <arab > for him; of my hand <3027 yad

<0935 bow> > him not unto thee, and set <3322 yatsag > him

before <6440 paniym > thee, then let me bear <2398 chata> > the

blame <2398 chata> > for ever:

10 For except <3884 luwle> > we had lingered <4102 mahahh >,

surely <3588 kiy > now <6258 <attah > we had returned <7725

shuwb > this <2088 zeh > second time <6471 pa<am >.

11. And their father <1> Israel <3478 Yisra>el > said <0559

>amar > unto them, If <0518 >im > [it must be] so <3651 ken >

now <0645 >ephow >, do <6213 <asah > this <2063 zo>th >; take

<3947 laqach > of the best <2173 zimrah > fruits <2173 zimrah >

in the land <0776 >erets > in your vessels <3627 k@liy >, and

carry <3381 yarad > down <3381 yarad > the man <0376 >iysh > a

present <4503 minchah >, a little <4592 m@<at > balm <6875

ts@riy >, and a little <4592 m@<at > honey <1706 d@bash >,

spices <5219 n@ko>th >, and myrrh <3910 lot >, nuts <0992 boten

12 And take <3947 laqach > double <4932 mishneh > money <3701

keceph > in your hand <3027 yad >; and the money <3701 keceph >

that was brought <7725 shuwb > again <7725 shuwb > in the mouth

<6310 peh > of your sacks <0572 >amtachath >, carry <7725 shuwb

peradventure <0194 >uwlay > it [was] an oversight <4870 mishgeh

13 Take <3947 laqach > also your brother <0251 >ach >, and

arise <6965 quwm >, go <7725 shuwb > again <7725 shuwb > unto

the man <0376 >iysh >:

14 And God <0410 >el > Almighty <7706 Shadday > give <5414

nathan > you mercy <7356 racham > before <6440 paniym > the man

<0376 >iysh >, that he may send <7971 shalach > away your other

<0312 >acher > brother <0251 >ach >, and Benjamin <1144

Binyamiyn >. If <0834 >aher > I be bereaved <7921 shakol > [of

my children], I am bereaved <7921 shakol >.

15. And the men <0582 >enowsh > took <3947 laqach > that

present <4503 minchah >, and they took <3947 laqach > double

<4932 mishneh > money <3701 keceph > in their hand <3027 yad >,

and Benjamin <1144 Binyamiyn >; and rose <6965 quwm > up, and

went <3381 yarad > down <3381 yarad > to Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >,

and stood <5975 <amad > before <6440 paniym > Joseph <3130

Yowceph >.

16 And when <3588 kiy > Joseph <3130 Yowceph > saw <7200 ra>ah

the ruler of his house <1004 bayith >, Bring <0935 bow> >

[these] men <0582 >enowsh > home <1004 bayith >, and slay <2875

Tebach >, and make ready <3559 kuwn >; for [these] men <0582

>enowsh > shall dine <0398 >akal > with me at noon <6672 tsohar

17 And the man <0376 >iysh > did <6213 <asah > as Joseph <3130

Yowceph > bade <0559 >amar >; and the man <0376 >iysh > brought

<0935 bow> > the men <0582 >enowsh > into Joseph's <3130 Yowceph

18 And the men <0582 >enowsh > were afraid <3372 yare> >,

because <3588 kiy > they were brought <0935 bow> > into Joseph's

<3130 Yowceph > house <1004 bayith >; and they said <0559 >amar

shuwb > in our sacks <0572 >amtachath > at the first <8462

t@chillah > time <8462 t@chillah > are we brought <0935 bow> >

in; that he may seek <1556 galal > occasion <1556 galal >

against <5921 <al > us, and fall <5307 naphal > upon us, and

take <3947 laqach > us for bondmen <5650 <ebed >, and our asses

<2543 chamowr >.

19 And they came <5066 nagash > near <5066 nagash > to the

steward of Joseph's <3130 Yowceph > house <1004 bayith >, and

they communed <1696 dabar > with him at the door <6607 pethach >

of the house <1004 bayith >,

20 And said <0559 >amar >, O sir <0113 >adown >, we came <3381

yarad > indeed down <3381 yarad > at the first <8462 t@chillah >

time <8462 t@chillah > to buy <7666 shabar > food <0400 >okel >:

21 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass, when <3588 kiy > we came

<0935 bow> > to the inn <4411 malown >, that we opened <6605

pathach > our sacks <0572 >amtachath >, and, behold <2009 hinneh

brought <7725 shuwb > it again <7725 shuwb > in our hand <3027

yad >.

22 And other <0312 >acher > money <3701 keceph > have we

brought <3381 yarad > down <3381 yarad > in our hands <3027 yad

23 And he said <0559 >amar >, Peace <7965 shalowm > [be] to you,

fear <3372 yare> > not: your God <0430 >elohiym >, and the God

<0430 >elohiym > of your father <1>, hath given <5414 nathan >

you treasure <4301 matmown > in your sacks <0572 >amtachath >: I

had <0935 bow> > your money <3701 keceph >. And he brought <3318

24 And the man <0376 >iysh > brought <0935 bow> > the men <0582

and gave <5414 nathan > [them] water <4325 mayim >, and they

washed <7364 rachats > their feet <7272 regel >; and he gave

<5414 nathan > their asses <2543 chamowr > provender <4554

25 And they made ready <3559 kuwn > the present <4503 minchah >

against <5704 <ad > Joseph <3130 Yowceph > came <0935 bow> > at

noon <6672 tsohar >: for they heard <8085 shama< > that they

should eat <0398 >akal > bread <3899 lechem > there <8033 sham >.

26. And when Joseph <3130 Yowceph > came <0935 bow> > home

<1004 bayith >, they brought <0935 bow> > him the present <4503

minchah > which <0834 >aher > [was] in their hand <3027 yad >

into the house <1004 bayith >, and bowed <7812 shachah >

27 And he asked <7592 sha>al > them of [their] welfare <7965

28 And they answered <0559 >amar >, Thy servant <5650 <ebed >

<6915 qadad > down <6915 qadad > their heads, and made obeisance

<7812 shachah >.

29 And he lifted <5375 nasa> > up his eyes <5869 <ayin >, and

saw <7200 ra>ah > his brother <0251 >ach > Benjamin <1144

<0559 >amar >, [Is] this <2088 zeh > your younger <6996 qatan >

gracious <2603 chanan > unto thee, my son <1121 ben >.

30 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > made haste <4116 mahar >; for his

bowels <7358 rechem > did yearn <3648 kamar > upon his brother

<0251 >ach >: and he sought <1245 baqash > [where] to weep <1058

31 And he washed <7364 rachats > his face <6440 paniym >, and

went <3318 yatsa> > out, and refrained <0662 >aphaq > himself,

and said <0559 >amar >, Set <7760 suwm > on bread <3899 lechem >.

32 And they set <7760 suwm > on for him by himself, and for

them by themselves <0905 bad >, and for the Egyptians <4713

Mitsriy >, which did eat <0398 >akal > with him, by themselves

<0905 bad >: because <3588 kiy > the Egyptians <4713 Mitsriy >

might <3201 yakol > not eat <0398 >akal > bread <3899 lechem >

with the Hebrews <5680 <Ibriy >; for that [is] an abomination

<8441 tow<ebah > unto the Egyptians <4714 Mitsrayim >.

33 And they sat <3427 yashab > before <6440 paniym > him, the

firstborn <1060 b@kowr > according to his birthright <1062

b@kowrah >, and the youngest <6810 tsa<iyr > according to his

youth <6812 ts@<iyrah >: and the men <0582 >enowsh > marvelled

<8539 tamahh > one <0376 >iysh > at <0413 >el > another <7453

34 And he took <5375 nasa> > [and sent <7971 shalach >] messes

<4864 mas>eth > unto them from before <6440 paniym > him: but

Benjamin's <1144 Binyamiyn > mess <4864 mas>eth > was five <2568

chamesh > times <3027 yad > so much <7235 rabah > as any of

theirs. And they drank <8354 shathah >, and were merry <7937

Genesis 44

1. And he commanded <6680 tsavah > the steward <5921 <al > of

his house <1004 bayith >, saying <0559 >amar >, Fill <4390 male>

mouth <6310 peh >.

2 And put <7760 suwm > my cup <1375 g@biya< >, the silver <3701

keceph > cup <1375 g@biya< >, in the sack's <0572 >amtachath >

mouth <6310 peh > of the youngest <6996 qatan >, and his corn

according to the word <1697 dabar > that Joseph <3130 Yowceph >

had spoken <1696 dabar >.

3 As soon as the morning <1242 boqer > was light <0216 >owr >,

the men <0582 >enowsh > were sent <7971 shalach > away, they and

their asses <2543 chamowr >.

4 [And] when they were gone <3318 yatsa> > out of the city

<5892 <iyr >, [and] not [yet] far <7368 rachaq > off, Joseph

<3130 Yowceph > said <0559 >amar > unto his steward <5921 <al >,

Up, follow <7291 radaph > after <0310 >achar > the men <0582

<0559 >amar > unto them, Wherefore <4100 mah > have ye rewarded

<7999 shalam > evil <7451 ra< > for good <2896 towb >?

5 [Is] not this <2088 zeh > [it] in which <0834 >aher > my lord

divineth <5172 nachash >? ye have done evil <7489 ra<a< > in so

<0834 >aher > doing <6213 <asah >.

6 And he overtook <5381 nasag > them, and he spake <1696 dabar

7 And they said <0559 >amar > unto him, Wherefore <4100 mah >

saith <1696 dabar > my lord <0113 >adown > these <0428 >el-leh >

words <1697 dabar >? God forbid <2486 chaliylah > that thy

servants <5650 <ebed > should do <6213 <asah > according to this

<2088 zeh > thing <1697 dabar >:

8 Behold <2005 hen >, the money <3701 keceph >, which <0834

>aher > we found <4672 matsa> > in our sacks <0572 >amtachath >'

mouths <6310 peh >, we brought <7725 shuwb > again <7725 shuwb >

unto thee out of the land <0776 >erets > of Canaan <3667 K@na<an

thy lord's <0113 >adown > house <1004 bayith > silver <3701

keceph > or <0176 >ow > gold <2091 zahab >?

9 With whomsoever <0834 >aher > of thy servants <5650 <ebed >

it be found <4672 matsa> >, both let him die <4191 muwth >, and

we also <1571 gam > will be my lord's <0113 >adown > bondmen

<5650 <ebed >.

10 And he said <0559 >amar >, Now <6258 <attah > also <1571 gam

whom <0834 >aher > it is found <4672 matsa> > shall be my

servant <5650 <ebed >; and ye shall be blameless <5355 naqiy >.

11 Then they speedily <4116 mahar > took <3381 yarad > down

<3381 yarad > every man <0376 >iysh > his sack <0572 >amtachath

man <0376 >iysh > his sack <0572 >amtachath >.

12 And he searched <2664 chaphas >, [and] began <2490 chalal >

at the eldest <1419 gadowl >, and left <3615 kalah > at the

youngest <6996 qatan >: and the cup <1375 g@biya< > was found

<4672 matsa> > in Benjamin's <1144 Binyamiyn > sack <0572

13 Then they rent <7167 qara< > their clothes <8071 simlah >,

and laded <6006 <amac > every man <0376 >iysh > his ass <2543

chamowr >, and returned <7725 shuwb > to the city <5892 <iyr >.

14 And Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > and his brethren <0251 >ach >

came <0935 bow> > to Joseph's <3130 Yowceph > house <1004 bayith

fell <5307 naphal > before <6440 paniym > him on the ground

<0776 >erets >.

15 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > said <0559 >amar > unto them,

What <4100 mah > deed <4639 ma<aseh > [is] this that ye have

done <6213 <asah >? wot <3045 yada< > ye not that such a man

16 And Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > said <0559 >amar >, What <4100

what <4100 mah > shall we speak <1696 dabar >? or how <4100 mah

we, and [he] also <1571 gam > with whom <0834 >aher > the cup

<1375 g@biya< > is found <4672 matsa> >.

17 And he said <0559 >amar >, God forbid <2486 chaliylah > that

I should do <6213 <asah > so <2063 zo>th >: [but] the man <0376

>iysh > in whose hand <3027 yad > the cup <1375 g@biya< > is

found <4672 matsa> >, he shall be my servant <5650 <ebed >; and

as for you, get <5927 <alah > you up in peace <7965 shalowm >

unto your father <1>.

18. Then Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > came <5066 nagash > near <5066

nagash > unto him, and said <0559 >amar >, Oh <0994 biy > my

lord <0113 >adown >, let thy servant <5650 <ebed >, I pray <4994

lord's <0113 >adown > ears <0241 >ozen >, and let not thine

anger <0639 >aph > burn <2734 charah > against thy servant <5650

<ebed >: for thou [art] even as Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh >.

19 My lord <0113 >adown > asked <7592 sha>al > his servants

<5650 <ebed >, saying <0559 >amar >, Have <3426 yesh > ye a

father <1>, or <0176 >ow > a brother <0251 >ach >?

20 And we said <0559 >amar > unto my lord <0113 >adown >, We

have <3426 yesh > a father <1>, an old <2208 zaqun > man <0376

a little <6966 quwm > one; and his brother <0251 >ach > is dead

<4191 muwth >, and he alone <0905 bad > is left <3498 yathar >

of his mother <0517 >em >, and his father <1> loveth <0157 >ahab

21 And thou saidst <0559 >amar > unto thy servants <5650 <ebed

may set <7760 suwm > mine eyes <5869 <ayin > upon him.

22 And we said <0559 >amar > unto my lord <0113 >adown >, The

lad <5288 na<ar > cannot leave <5800 <azab > his father <1>: for

[if] he should leave <5800 <azab > his father, [his father]

would die <4191 muwth >.

23 And thou saidst <0559 >amar > unto thy servants <5650 <ebed

24 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass when <3588 kiy > we came

<5927 <alah > up unto thy servant <5650 <ebed > my father <1>,

we told <5046 nagad > him the words <1697 dabar > of my lord

<0113 >adown >.

25 And our father <1> said <0559 >amar >, Go <7725 shuwb >

again <7725 shuwb >, [and] buy <7666 shabar > us a little <4592

m@<at > food <0400 >okel >.

26 And we said <0559 >amar >, We cannot go <3381 yarad > down

<3381 yarad >: if <0518 >im > our youngest <6996 qatan > brother

<0251 >ach > be with us, then will we go <3381 yarad > down

27 And thy servant <5650 <ebed > my father <1> said <0559 >amar

bare <3205 yalad > me two <8147 sh@nayim > [sons]:

28 And the one <0259 >echad > went <3318 yatsa> > out from me,

and I said <0559 >amar >, Surely <0389 >ak > he is torn <2963

29 And if <0518 >im > ye take <3947 laqach > this <2088 zeh >

30 Now <6258 <attah > therefore when I come <0935 bow> > to thy

servant <5650 <ebed > my father <1>, and the lad <5288 na<ar >

[be] not with us; seeing that his life <5315 nephesh > is bound

31 It shall come <1961 hayah > to pass, when he seeth <7200

hairs of thy servant <5650 <ebed > our father <1> with sorrow

<3015 yagown > to the grave <7585 sh@>owl >.

32 For thy servant <5650 <ebed > became <6148 <arab > surety

<6148 <arab > for the lad <5288 na<ar > unto my father <1>,

saying <0559 >amar >, If <0518 >im > I bring <0935 bow> > him

33 Now <6258 <attah > therefore, I pray <4994 na> > thee, let

34 For how <0349 >eyk > shall I go <5927 <alah > up to my

<6435 pen > peradventure I see <7200 ra>ah > the evil <7451 ra<

Genesis 45

1. Then Joseph <3130 Yowceph > could <3201 yakol > not refrain

And there stood <5975 <amad > no <3808 lo> > man <0376 >iysh >

yada< > unto his brethren <0251 >ach >.

2 And he wept aloud: and the Egyptians <4714 Mitsrayim > and

the house <1004 bayith > of Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > heard <8085

shama< >.

3 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > said <0559 >amar > unto his

<0251 >ach > could <3201 yakol > not answer <6030 <anah > him;

for they were troubled <0926 bahal > at his presence <6440

4 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > said <0559 >amar > unto his

brethren <0251 >ach >, Come <5066 nagash > near <5066 nagash >

to me, I pray <4994 na> > you. And they came <5066 nagash > near

5 Now <6258 <attah > therefore be not grieved <6087 <atsab >,

6 For these <2088 zeh > two years <8141 shaneh > [hath] the

7 And God <0430 >elohiym > sent <7971 shalach > me before <6440

8 So now <6258 <attah > [it was] not you [that] sent <7971

9 Haste <4116 mahar > ye, and go <5927 <alah > up to my father

come to poverty <3423 yarash >.

12 And, behold <2009 hinneh >, your eyes <5869 <ayin > see

my father hither.

14 And he fell <5307 naphal > upon his brother <0251 >ach >

Benjamin's <1144 Binyamiyn > neck <6677 tsavva>r >, and wept

<1058 bakah >; and Benjamin <1144 Binyamiyn > wept <1058 bakah >

upon his neck <6677 tsavva>r >.

15 Moreover he kissed <5401 nashaq > all <3605 kol > his

father's <1> household <1004 bayith >, with bread <3899 lechem >,

according <6310 peh > to [their] families <2945 taph >.

13. And [there was] no <0369 >ayin > bread <3899 lechem > in

all <3605 kol > the land <0776 >erets >; for the famine <7458

ra<ab > [was] very <3966 m@<od > sore <3515 kabed >, so that the

land <0776 >erets > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > and [all] the

land <0776 >erets > of Canaan <3667 K@na<an > fainted <3856

lahahh > by reason <6440 paniym > of the famine <7458 ra<ab >.

14 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > gathered <3950 laqat > up all

<3605 kol > the money <3701 keceph > that was found <4672 matsa>

the land <0776 >erets > of Canaan <3667 K@na<an >, for the corn

<7668 sheber > which <0834 >aher > they bought <7666 shabar >:

and Joseph <3130 Yowceph > brought <0935 bow> > the money <3701

keceph > into Pharaoh's <6547 Par<oh > house <1004 bayith >.

15 And when money <3701 keceph > failed <8552 tamam > in the

land <0776 >erets > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >, and in the land

<0776 >erets > of Canaan <3667 K@na<an >, all <3605 kol > the

Egyptians <4714 Mitsrayim > came <0935 bow> > unto Joseph <3130

Yowceph >, and said <0559 >amar >, Give <3051 yahab > us bread

<3899 lechem >: for why <4100 mah > should we die <4191 muwth >

in thy presence <5048 neged >? for the money <3701 keceph >

faileth <0656 >aphec >.

16 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > said <0559 >amar >, Give <3051

yahab > your cattle <4735 miqneh >; and I will give <5414 nathan

17 And they brought <0935 bow> > their cattle <4735 miqneh >

unto Joseph <3130 Yowceph >: and Joseph <3130 Yowceph > gave

<5414 nathan > them bread <3899 lechem > [in exchange] for

horses <5483 cuwc >, and for the flocks <6629 tso>n >, and for

the cattle <4735 miqneh > of the herds <1241 baqar >, and for

the asses <2543 chamowr >: and he fed <5095 nahal > them with

bread <3899 lechem > for all <3605 kol > their cattle <4735

miqneh > for that year <8141 shaneh >.

18 When that year <8141 shaneh > was ended <8552 tamam >, they

came <0935 bow> > unto him the second <8145 sheniy > year <8141

shaneh >, and said <0559 >amar > unto him, We will not hide

<3582 kachad > [it] from my lord <0113 >adown >, how that our

money <3701 keceph > is spent <8552 tamam >; my lord <0113

cattle <0929 b@hemah >; there is not ought left <7604 sha>ar >

in the sight <6440 paniym > of my lord <0113 >adown >, but our

bodies <1472 g@viyah >, and our lands <0127 >adamah >:

19 Wherefore <4100 mah > shall we die <4191 muwth > before

thine eyes <5869 <ayin >, both <1571 gam > we and our land <0127

bread <3899 lechem >, and we and our land <0127 >adamah > will

be servants <5650 <ebed > unto Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh >: and give

<5414 nathan > [us] seed <2233 zera< >, that we may live <2421

chayah >, and not die <4191 muwth >, that the land <0127 >adamah

20 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > bought <7069 qanah > all <3605

kol > the land <0127 >adamah > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > for

Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh >; for the Egyptians <4714 Mitsrayim > sold

<4376 makar > every man <0376 >iysh > his field <7704 sadeh >,

because <3588 kiy > the famine <7458 ra<ab > prevailed <2388

chazaq > over <5921 <al > them: so the land <0776 >erets >

became <1961 hayah > Pharaoh's <6547 Par<oh >.

21 And as for the people <5971 <am >, he removed <5674 <abar >

them to cities <5892 <iyr > from [one] end <7097 qatseh > of the

borders <1366 g@buwl > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > even to the

[other] end <7097 qatseh > thereof.

22 Only <7535 raq > the land <0127 >adamah > of the priests

<3548 kohen > bought <7069 qanah > he not; for the priests <3548

kohen > had a portion <2706 choq > [assigned them] of Pharaoh

<6547 Par<oh >, and did eat <0398 >akal > their portion <2706

choq > which <0834 >aher > Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > gave <5414

nathan > them: wherefore they sold <4376 makar > not their lands

<0127 >adamah >.

23 Then Joseph <3130 Yowceph > said <0559 >amar > unto the

people <5971 <am >, Behold <2009 hinneh >, I have bought <7069

qanah > you this day <3117 yowm > and your land <0127 >adamah >

<2233 zera< > for you, and ye shall sow <2232 zara< > the land

<0127 >adamah >.

24 And it shall come <1961 hayah > to pass in the increase

<8393 t@buw>ah >, that ye shall give <5414 nathan > the fifth

<2549 chamiyshiy > [part] unto Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh >, and four

<0702 >arba< > parts <3027 yad > shall be your own, for seed

<2233 zera< > of the field <7704 sadeh >, and for your food

<0400 >okel >, and for them of your households <1004 bayith >,

and for food <0398 >akal > for your little <2945 taph > ones.

25 And they said <0559 >amar >, Thou hast saved our lives <2421

chayah >: let us find <4672 matsa> > grace <2580 chen > in the

sight <5869 <ayin > of my lord <0113 >adown >, and we will be

Pharaoh's <6547 Par<oh > servants <5650 <ebed >.

26 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > made <7760 suwm > it a law <2706

choq > over <5921 <al > the land <0127 >adamah > of Egypt <4714

Mitsrayim > unto this <2088 zeh > day <3117 yowm >, [that]

Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > should have the fifth <2569 chomesh >

[part]; except <7535 raq > the land <0127 >adamah > of the

priests <3548 kohen > only <0905 bad >, [which] became <1961

hayah > not Pharaoh's <6547 Par<oh >.

27. And Israel <3478 Yisra>el > dwelt <3427 yashab > in the

land <0776 >erets > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >, in the country

<0776 >erets > of Goshen <1657 Goshen >; and they had

possessions <0270 >achaz > therein, and grew <6509 parah >, and

multiplied <7235 rabah > exceedingly <3966 m@<od >.

28 And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > lived <2421 chayah > in the land

<0776 >erets > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > seventeen <7651 sheba<

<3290 Ya<aqob > was an hundred <3967 me>ah > forty <0705

29 And the time <3117 yowm > drew nigh <7126 qarab > that

Israel <3478 Yisra>el > must die <4191 muwth >: and he called

<7121 qara> > his son <1121 ben > Joseph <3130 Yowceph >, and

said <0559 >amar > unto him, If <0518 >im > now <4994 na> > I

have found <4672 matsa> > grace <2580 chen > in thy sight <5869

<ayin >, put <7760 suwm >, I pray <4994 na> > thee, thy hand

<3027 yad > under <8478 tachath > my thigh <3409 yarek >, and

deal <6213 <asah > kindly <2617 checed > and truly <0571 >emeth

in Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >:

30 But I will lie <7901 shakab > with my fathers <1>, and thou

shalt carry <5375 nasa> > me out of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >, and

bury <6912 qabar > me in their buryingplace <6913 qeber >. And

he said <0559 >amar >, I will do <6213 <asah > as thou hast said

<1697 dabar >.

31 And he said <0559 >amar >, Swear <7650 shaba< > unto me. And

he sware <7650 shaba< > unto him. And Israel <3478 Yisra>el >

bowed <7812 shachah > himself upon the bed's <4296 mittah > head

<7218 ro>sh >.

Genesis 48

1. And it came <1961 hayah > to pass after <0310 >achar > these

<0428 >el-leh > things <1697 dabar >, that [one] told <0559

>amar > Joseph <3130 Yowceph >, Behold <2009 hinneh >, thy

father <1> [is] sick <2470 chalah >: and he took <3947 laqach >

with him his two <8147 sh@nayim > sons <1121 ben >, Manasseh

<4519 M@nashsheh > and Ephraim <0669 >Ephrayim >.

2 And [one] told <5046 nagad > Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob >, and said

<0559 >amar >, Behold <2009 hinneh >, thy son <1121 ben > Joseph

<3130 Yowceph > cometh <0935 bow> > unto thee: and Israel <3478

Yisra>el > strengthened <2388 chazaq > himself, and sat <3427

yashab > upon the bed <4296 mittah >.

3 And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > said <0559 >amar > unto Joseph

<3130 Yowceph >, God <0410 >el > Almighty <7706 Shadday >

appeared <7200 ra>ah > unto me at Luz <3870 Luwz > in the land

<0776 >erets > of Canaan <3667 K@na<an >, and blessed <1288

barak > me,

4 And said <0559 >amar > unto me, Behold <2005 hen >, I will

make thee fruitful <6509 parah >, and multiply <7235 rabah >

thee, and I will make <5414 nathan > of thee a multitude <6951

qahal > of people <5971 <am >; and will give <5414 nathan > this

<2063 zo>th > land <0776 >erets > to thy seed <2233 zera< >

after <0310 >achar > thee [for] an everlasting <5769 <owlam >

possession <0272 >achuzzah >.

5 And now <6258 <attah > thy two <8147 sh@nayim > sons <1121

ben >, Ephraim <0669 >Ephrayim > and Manasseh <4519 M@nashsheh >,

which were born <3205 yalad > unto thee in the land <0776

>erets > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > before <5704 <ad > I came

<0935 bow> > unto thee into Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >, [are] mine;

as Reuben <7205 R@>uwben > and Simeon <8095 Shim<own >, they

shall be mine.

6 And thy issue <4138 mowledeth >, which <0834 >aher > thou

begettest <3205 yalad > after <0310 >achar > them, shall be

thine, [and] shall be called <7121 qara> > after <5921 <al > the

name <8034 shem > of their brethren <0251 >ach > in their

inheritance <5159 nachalah >.

7 And as for me, when I came <0935 bow> > from Padan <6307

Paddan >, Rachel <7354 Rachel > died <4191 muwth > by me in the

land <0776 >erets > of Canaan <3667 K@na<an > in the way <1870

derek >, when <5750 <owd > yet <5750 <owd > [there was] but a

little <3530 kibrah > way <0776 >erets > to come <0935 bow> >

unto Ephrath <0672 >Ephraath >: and I buried <6912 qabar > her

there <8033 sham > in the way <1870 derek > of Ephrath <0672

>Ephraath >; the same <1931 huw> > [is] Bethlehem <1035 Beyth

Lechem >.

8. And Israel <3478 Yisra>el > beheld <7200 ra>ah > Joseph's

<3130 Yowceph > sons <1121 ben >, and said <0559 >amar >, Who

<4310 miy > [are] these <0428 >el-leh >?

9 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > said <0559 >amar > unto his father

<1>, They [are] my sons <1121 ben >, whom <0834 >aher > God

<0430 >elohiym > hath given <5414 nathan > me in this <2088 zeh

I pray <4994 na> > thee, unto me, and I will bless <1288 barak >

them.

10 Now the eyes <5869 <ayin > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > were

dim <3513 kabad > for age <2207 zoqen >, [so that] he could

<3201 yakol > not see <7200 ra>ah >. And he brought <5066 nagash

11 And Israel <3478 Yisra>el > said <0559 >amar > unto Joseph

<3130 Yowceph >, I had not thought <6419 palal > to see <7200

ra>ah > thy face <6440 paniym >: and, lo <2009 hinneh >, God

<0430 >elohiym > hath shewed <7200 ra>ah > me also <1571 gam >

thy seed <2233 zera< >.

12 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > brought <3318 yatsa> > them out

from between <5973 <im > his knees <1290 berek >, and he bowed

<7812 shachah > himself with his face <0639 >aph > to the earth

<0776 >erets >.

13 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > took <3947 laqach > them both

<8147 sh@nayim >, Ephraim <0669 >Ephrayim > in his right <3225

yamiyn > hand <3225 yamiyn > toward Israel's <3478 Yisra>el >

left <8040 s@mo>wl > hand <8040 s@mo>wl >, and Manasseh <4519

M@nashsheh > in his left <8040 s@mo>wl > hand <8040 s@mo>wl >

toward Israel's <3478 Yisra>el > right <3225 yamiyn > hand <3225

yamiyn >, and brought <5066 nagash > [them] near <5066 nagash >

unto him.

14 And Israel <3478 Yisra>el > stretched <7971 shalach > out

his right <3225 yamiyn > hand <3225 yamiyn >, and laid <7896

shiyth > [it] upon Ephraim's <0669 >Ephrayim > head <7218 ro>sh

left <8040 s@mo>wl > hand <8040 s@mo>wl > upon Manasseh's <4519

M@nashsheh > head <7218 ro>sh >, guiding his hands <3027 yad >

wittingly <7919 sakal >; for Manasseh <4519 M@nashsheh > [was]

the firstborn <1060 b@kowr >.

15 And he blessed <1288 barak > Joseph <3130 Yowceph >, and

said <0559 >amar >, God <0430 >elohiym >, before <6440 paniym >

whom <0834 >aher > my fathers <1> Abraham <85> and Isaac <3327

Yitschaq > did walk <1980 halak >, the God <0430 >elohiym >

which fed <7462 ra<ah > me all my life long <5750 <owd > unto

this day <3117 yowm >,

16 The Angel <4397 mal>ak > which redeemed <1350 ga>al > me

from all <3605 kol > evil <7451 ra< >, bless <1288 barak > the

lads <5288 na<ar >; and let my name <8034 shem > be named <7121

qara> > on them, and the name <8034 shem > of my fathers <1>

Abraham <85> and Isaac <3327 Yitschaq >; and let them grow <1711

dagah > into a multitude <7230 rob > in the midst <7130 qereb >

of the earth <0776 >erets >.

17 And when Joseph <3130 Yowceph > saw <7200 ra>ah > that his

father <1> laid <7896 shiyth > his right <3225 yamiyn > hand

<3027 yad > upon the head <7218 ro>sh > of Ephraim <0669

>Ephrayim >, it displeased him: and he held <8557 temec > up his

father's <1> hand <3027 yad >, to remove <5493 cuwr > it from

Ephraim's <0669 >Ephrayim > head <7218 ro>sh > unto Manasseh's

<4519 M@nashsheh > head <7218 ro>sh >.

18 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > said <0559 >amar > unto his

father <1>, Not so <3651 ken >, my father <1>: for this <2088

zeh > [is] the firstborn <1060 b@kowr >; put <7760 suwm > thy

right <3225 yamiyn > hand <3225 yamiyn > upon his head <7218

ro>sh >.

19 And his father <1> refused <3985 ma>en >, and said <0559

>amar >, I know <3045 yada< > [it], my son <1121 ben >, I know

<3045 yada< > [it]: he also <1571 gam > shall become <1961 hayah

and his seed <2233 zera< > shall become <1961 hayah > a

multitude <4393 m@lo> > of nations <1471 gowy >.

20 And he blessed <1288 barak > them that day <3117 yowm >,

saying <0559 >amar >, In thee shall Israel <3478 Yisra>el >

bless <1288 barak >, saying <0559 >amar >, God <0430 >elohiym >

make <6213 <asah > thee as Ephraim <0669 >Ephrayim > and as

Manasseh <4519 M@nashsheh >: and he set <7760 suwm > Ephraim

<0669 >Ephrayim > before <6440 paniym > Manasseh <4519

M@nashsheh >.

21 And Israel <3478 Yisra>el > said <0559 >amar > unto Joseph

<3130 Yowceph >, Behold <2009 hinneh >, I die <4191 muwth >: but

God <0430 >elohiym > shall be with you, and bring <7725 shuwb >

you again <7725 shuwb > unto the land <0776 >erets > of your

fathers <1>.

22 Moreover I have given <5414 nathan > to thee one <0259

<0251 >ach >, which <0834 >aher > I took <3947 laqach > out of

the hand <3027 yad > of the Amorite <0567 >Emoriy > with my

sword <2719 chereb > and with my bow <7198 qesheth >.

Genesis 49

1. And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > called <7121 qara> > unto his sons

<1121 ben >, and said <0559 >amar >, Gather <0622 >acaph >

which <0834 >aher > shall befall <7122 qara> > you in the last

2 Gather <6908 qabats > yourselves together, and hear <8085

shama< >, ye sons <1121 ben > of Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob >; and

hearken <8085 shama< > unto Israel <3478 Yisra>el > your father

4 Unstable <6349 pachaz > as water <4325 mayim >, thou shalt

not excel <3498 yathar >; because <3588 kiy > thou wentest <5927

up to my couch <3326 yatsuwa< >.

5. Simeon <8095 Shim<own > and Levi <3878 Leviy > [are]

brethren <0251 >ach >; instruments <3627 k@liy > of cruelty

<2555 chamac > [are in] their habitations <4380 m@kerah >.

6 O my soul <5315 nephesh >, come <0935 bow> > not thou into

their secret <5475 cowd >; unto their assembly <6951 qahal >,

mine honour <3519 kabowd >, be not thou united <3161 yachad >:

for in their anger <0639 >aph > they slew <2026 harag > a man

<0376 >iysh >, and in their selfwill <7522 ratsown > they digged

<6131 <aqar > down <6131 <aqar > a wall <7794 showr >.

7 Cursed <0779 >arar > [be] their anger <0639 >aph >, for [it

was] fierce <5794 <az >; and their wrath <5678 <ebrah >, for it

was cruel <7185 qashah >: I will divide <2505 chalaq > them in

Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob >, and scatter <6327 puwts > them in Israel

8. Judah <3063 Y@huwdah >, thou [art he] whom thy brethren

Genesis 50

1. And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > fell <5307 naphal > upon his

father's <1> face <6440 paniym >, and wept <1058 bakah > upon

him, and kissed <5401 nashaq > him.

2 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > commanded <6680 tsavah > his

servants <5650 <ebed > the physicians <7495 rapha> > to embalm

<2590 chanat > his father <1>: and the physicians <7495 rapha> >

embalmed <2590 chanat > Israel <3478 Yisra>el >.

3 And forty <0705 >arba<iym > days <3117 yowm > were fulfilled

<4390 male> > for him; for so <3651 ken > are fulfilled <4390

male> > the days <3117 yowm > of those which are embalmed <2590

chanat >: and the Egyptians <4714 Mitsrayim > mourned <1058

bakah > for him threescore <7657 shib<iym. > and ten days <3117

4 And when the days <3117 yowm > of his mourning <1086 balah >

were past <5674 <abar >, Joseph <3130 Yowceph > spake <1696

dabar > unto the house <1004 bayith > of Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh >,

saying <0559 >amar >, If <0518 >im > now <4994 na> > I have

5 My father <1> made me swear <7650 shaba< >, saying <0559

there <8033 sham > shalt thou bury <6912 qabar > me. Now <6258

<attah > therefore let me go <5927 <alah > up, I pray <4994 na>

<7725 shuwb > again <7725 shuwb >.

6 And Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > said <0559 >amar >, Go <5927 <alah

made thee swear <7650 shaba< >.

7. And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > went <5927 <alah > up to bury

<6912 qabar > his father <1>: and with him went <5927 <alah > up

all <3605 kol > the servants <5650 <ebed > of Pharaoh <6547

Par<oh >, the elders <2205 zaqen > of his house <1004 bayith >,

and all <3605 kol > the elders <2205 zaqen > of the land <0776

8 And all <3605 kol > the house <1004 bayith > of Joseph <3130

Yowceph >, and his brethren <0251 >ach >, and his father's <1>

house <1004 bayith >: only <7535 raq > their little <2945 taph >

Goshen <1657 Goshen >.

9 And there went <5927 <alah > up with him both <1571 gam >

chariots <7393 rekeb > and horsemen <6571 parash >: and it was a

very <3966 m@<od > great <3515 kabed > company <4264 machaneh >.

10 And they came <0935 bow> > to the threshingfloor <1637 goren

mourned <5594 caphad > with a great <1419 gadowl > and very

he made <6213 <asah > a mourning <60> for his father <1> seven

11 And when the inhabitants <3427 yashab > of the land <0776

the mourning <60> in the floor <1637 goren > of Atad <0329 >atad

<3515 kabed > mourning <60> to the Egyptians <4714 Mitsrayim >:

wherefore the name <8034 shem > of it was called <7121 qara> >

Abelmizraim <67>, which <0834 >aher > [is] beyond <5676 <eber >

Jordan <3383 Yarden >.

12 And his sons <1121 ben > did <6213 <asah > unto him

according <3651 ken > as he commanded <6680 tsavah > them:

13 For his sons <1121 ben > carried <5375 nasa> > him into the

land <0776 >erets > of Canaan <3667 K@na<an >, and buried <6912

qabar > him in the cave <4631 m@<arah > of the field <7704 sadeh

Ephron <6085 <Ephrown > the Hittite <2850 Chittiy >, before

Mamre <4471 Mamre> >.

14 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > returned <7725 shuwb > into Egypt

<4714 Mitsrayim >, he, and his brethren <0251 >ach >, and all

<3605 kol > that went <5927 <alah > up with him to bury <6912

qabar > his father <1>, after <0310 >achar > he had buried <6912

qabar > his father <1>.

15. And when Joseph's <3130 Yowceph > brethren <0251 >ach > saw

<7200 ra>ah > that their father <1> was dead <4191 muwth >, they

said <0559 >amar >, Joseph <3130 Yowceph > will peradventure

<7725 shuwb > us all <3605 kol > the evil <7451 ra< > which

<0834 >aher > we did <1580 gamal > unto him.

16 And they sent a messenger <6680 tsavah > unto Joseph <3130

Yowceph >, saying <0559 >amar >, Thy father <1> did command

<6680 tsavah > before <6440 paniym > he died <4194 maveth >,

saying <0559 >amar >,

17 So <3541 koh > shall ye say <0559 >amar > unto Joseph <3130

Yowceph >, Forgive <5375 nasa> >, I pray <0577 >anna> > thee now

18 And his brethren <0251 >ach > also <1571 gam > went <3212

yalak > and fell <5307 naphal > down before his face <6440

paniym >; and they said <0559 >amar >, Behold <2009 hinneh >, we

[be] thy servants <5650 <ebed >.

19 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > said <0559 >amar > unto them,

Fear <3372 yare> > not: for [am] I in the place of God <0430

20 But as for you, ye thought <2803 chashab > evil <7451 ra< >

against <5921 <al > me; [but] God <0430 >elohiym > meant <2803

chashab > it unto good <2896 towb >, to bring <6213 <asah > to

to save <2421 chayah > much <7227 rab > people <5971 <am >

alive <2421 chayah >.

21 Now <6258 <attah > therefore fear <3372 yare> > ye not: I

will nourish <3557 kuwl > you, and your little <2945 taph > ones.

And he comforted <5162 nacham > them, and spake <1696 dabar >

kindly unto them.

22. And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > dwelt <3427 yashab > in Egypt

<4714 Mitsrayim >, he, and his father's <1> house <1004 bayith >:

and Joseph <3130 Yowceph > lived <2421 chayah > an hundred

23 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > saw <7200 ra>ah > Ephraim's <0669

M@nashsheh > were brought <3205 yalad > up upon Joseph's <3130

Yowceph > knees <1290 berek >.

24 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > said <0559 >amar > unto his

brethren <0251 >ach >, I die <4191 muwth >: and God <0430

shaba< > to Abraham <85>, to Isaac <3327 Yitschaq >, and to

Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob >.

25 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > took an oath <7650 shaba< > of

the children <1121 ben > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >, saying

26 So Joseph <3130 Yowceph > died <4191 muwth >, [being] an
