WhereforeTherefore she said untoto Abraham, Cast out this handmaidservant and her son:! forFor the son of this handmaidservant shallwill not be heir with my son, even with Isaac. |
| 21:11 |
AndThe the thing was very grievous in Abrahams sight on account of his son. |

And Rebekah said to Isaac, I am weary of my life because of the daughters of Heth:. ifIf Jacob taketakes a wife of the daughters of Heth, such as these, of the daughters of the land, what good shallwill my life do me? |
| 28:1 |
And Isaac called Jacob, and blessed him, and chargedcommanded him, andYou saidshall unto him, Thou shalt not take a wife of the daughters of Canaan. |

| 28:22 |
then this stone, which I have set up for a pillar, shallwill be Gods house:. andOf of all that thouyou shaltwill give me I will surely give thea tenth untoto theeyou. |

| 30:27 |
And Laban said untoto him, If now I have found favor in thineyour eyes, tarry:stay here, for I have divined that JehovahYahweh hathhas blessed me for thyyour sake. |
| 30:28 |
AndHe he said, Appoint me thyyour wages, and I will give it. |
| 30:29 |
AndJacob he said untoto him, ThouYou knowestknow how I have served theeyou, and how thyyour cattlelivestock have fared with me. |
| 30:30 |
For it was little which thouyou hadsthad before I came, and it hathhas increased untoto a multitude;. andYahweh Jehovahhas hath blessed theeyou whithersoeverwherever I turned:. andNow now when shallwill I provide for minemy own house also? |
| 30:31 |
AndLaban he said, What shall I give theeyou? And Jacob said, ThouYou shaltshall not give me aught:anything. ifIf thouyou wiltwill do this thing for me, I will again feed thyyour flock and keep it. |
| 30:32 |
I will pass through all thyyour flock to daytoday, removing from thencethere every speckled and spotted one, and every black one among the sheep, and the spotted and speckled among the goats:. andThis ofwill such shall be my hire. |
| 30:33 |
So shall my righteousness will answer for me hereafter, when thouyou shalt come concerning my hire that is before thee:you. everyEvery one that is not speckled and spotted among the goats, and black among the sheep, that, ifmight foundbe with me, shallwill be countedconsidered stolen. |
| 30:34 |
And Laban said, Behold, Ilet would it might be according to thyyour word. |
| 30:35 |
AndThat day, he removed that day the hemale goats that were ringstreakedstreaked and spotted, and all the shefemale goats that were speckled and spotted, every one that had white in it, and all the black ones among the sheep, and gave them into the hand of his sons;. |
| 30:36 |
andHe he set three days journey betwixtbetween himself and Jacob:, and Jacob fed the rest of Labans flocks. |
| 30:37 |
And Jacob took himto himself rods of fresh poplar, and of the almond, and of the plane tree;, and peeled white streaks in them, and made the white appear which was in the rods. |
| 30:38 |
AndHe he set the rods which he had peeled overopposite against the flocks in the gutters in the watering troughs where the flocks came to drink;. andThey they conceived when they came to drink. |
| 30:39 |
AndThe the flocks conceived before the rods, and the flocks broughtproduced forth ringstreakedstreaked, speckled, and spotted. |
| 30:40 |
And Jacob separated the lambs, and set the faces of the flocks toward the ringstreakedstreaked and all the black in theLabans flock. ofHe Laban: and he put his own droves apart, and didnt put them notinto unto Labans flock. |
| 30:41 |
AndWhenever it came to pass, whensoever the stronger of the flock did conceiveconceived, that Jacob laid the rods beforein front of the eyes of the flock in the gutterswatering troughs, that they might conceive among the rods; |
| 30:42 |
but when the flock were feeble, he didnt put them not in:. soSo the feebler were Labans, and the stronger Jacobs. |
| 30:43 |
AndThe the man increased exceedingly, and had large flocks, andfemale maid servants and menmale servants, and camels and assesdonkeys. |
| 31:1 |
AndJacob he heard the words of Labans sons words, saying, Jacob hathhas taken away all that was our fathers;. andHe ofhas obtained all this wealth from that which was our fathers hath he gotten all this glory. |
| 31:2 |
And Jacob beheldsaw the countenanceexpression ofon LabanLabans face, and, behold, it was not toward him as beforetimebefore. |
| 31:3 |
AndYahweh Jehovah said untoto Jacob, Return untoto the land of thyyour fathers, and to thyyour kindred;relatives, and I will be with theeyou. |
| 31:4 |
And Jacob sent and called Rachel and Leah to the field untoto his flock, |
| 31:5 |
and said untoto them, I see the expression on your fathers countenanceface, that it is not toward me as beforetimebefore; but the God of my father hathhas been with me. |
| 31:6 |
AndYou ye know that with all my power I have served your father with all of my strength. |
| 31:7 |
AndYour your father hathhas deceived me, and changed my wages ten times;, but God suffereddidnt allow him not to hurt me. |
| 31:8 |
If he said thus, The speckled shallwill be thyyour wages;, then all the flock barebore speckled:. andIf if he said thus, The ringstreakedstreaked shallwill be thyyour wages;, then bare all the flock ringstreakedbore streaked. |
| 31:9 |
Thus God hathhas taken away theyour cattlefathers of your fatherlivestock, and given them to me. |
| 31:10 |
AndDuring itmating came to pass at the time that the flock conceiveseason, that I lifted up minemy eyes, and saw in a dream, and, behold, the hemale goats which leaped uponon the flock were ringstreakedstreaked, speckled, and grizzled. |
| 31:11 |
AndThe the angel of God said untoto me in the dream, Jacob:, and I said, Here I am I. |
| 31:12 |
AndHe he said, LiftNow lift up nowyour thine eyes, and see:behold, all the hemale goats which leap uponon the flock are ringstreakedstreaked, speckled, and grizzled:, for I have seen all that Laban doethdoes untoto theeyou. |
| 31:13 |
I am the God of Beth elBethel, where thouyou anointedstanointed a pillar, where thouyou vowedstvowed a vow untoto me:. nowNow arise, get thee out from this land, and return untoto the land of thyyour nativitybirth. |
| 31:14 |
And Rachel and Leah answered and said unto him, Is there yet any portion or inheritance for us in our fathers house? |
| 31:15 |
AreArent we notconsidered accountedas foreigners by him as foreigners? forFor he hathhas sold us, and hathhas also quiteused devouredup our money. |
| 31:16 |
For all the riches which God hathhas taken away from our father, thatare is ours and our childrens:. nowNow then, whatsoeverwhatever God hathhas said untoto theeyou, do. |
| 31:17 |
Then Jacob rose up, and set his sons and his wives uponon the camels;, |
| 31:18 |
and he carriedtook away all his cattlelivestock, and all his substancepossessions which he had gathered, including the cattlelivestock of his getting, which he had gatheredgained in Paddan aramAram, to go to Isaac his father, untoto the land of Canaan. |
| 31:19 |
Now Laban washad gone to shear his sheep:; and Rachel stole the teraphim that were her fathers. |
| 31:20 |
And Jacob stoledeceived away unawares to Laban the Syrian, in that he tolddidnt tell him not that he fledwas running away. |
| 31:21 |
So he fled with all that he had;. andHe he rose up, and passed over the River, and set his face toward the mountain of Gilead. |
| 31:22 |
AndLaban it was told Laban on the third day that Jacob washad fled. |
| 31:23 |
AndHe he took his brethrenrelatives with him, and pursued after him seven days journey;. andHe he overtook him in the mountain of Gilead. |
| 31:24 |
And God came to Laban the Syrian in a dream of the night, and said untoto him, TakeBe heedcareful tothat thyselfyou thatdont thou speak not to Jacob either good or bad. |
| 31:25 |
And Laban camecaught up with Jacob. Now Jacob had pitched his tent in the mountain:, and Laban with his brethrenrelatives encamped in the mountain of Gilead. |
| 31:26 |
And Laban said to Jacob, What hasthave thouyou done, that thouyou hasthave stolendeceived away unawares to me, and carried away my daughters aslike captives of the sword? |
| 31:27 |
WhereforeWhy didstdid thouyou flee secretly, and stealdeceive away from me, and didstdidnt not tell me, that I might have sent theeyou away with mirth and with songs, with tabrettambourine and with harp; |
| 31:28 |
and didstdidnt notallow suffer me to kiss my sons and my daughters? nowNow hasthave thouyou done foolishly. |
| 31:29 |
It is in the power of my hand to dohurt you, hurt: but the God of your father spakespoke untoto me yesternightlast night, saying, TakeBe heedcareful tothat thyselfyou thatdont thou speak not to Jacob either good or bad. |
| 31:30 |
And nowNow, thoughyou thouwant wouldestto needs be gone, because thouyou soregreatly longedstlonged afterfor thyyour fathers house, yetbut whereforewhy hasthave thouyou stolen my gods? |
| 31:31 |
And Jacob answered and said to Laban, Because I was afraid:, for I said, Lest thouyou shouldestshould take thyyour daughters from me by force. |
| 31:32 |
WithAnyone whomsoeveryou thoufind findestyour thy gods, hewith shall not live:. beforeBefore our brethrenrelatives, discern thou what is thineyours with me, and take it to thee. For Jacob knewdidnt notknow that Rachel had stolen them. |
| 31:33 |
And Laban went into Jacobs tent, and into Leahs tent, and into the tent of the two maidfemale servants; but he founddidnt find them not. AndHe he went out of Leahs tent, and entered into Rachels tent. |
| 31:34 |
Now Rachel had taken the teraphim, and put them in the camels saddle, and sat uponon them. And Laban felt aboutaround all the tent, but founddidnt find them not. |
| 31:35 |
AndShe she said to her father, LetDont notlet my Lord be angry that I cannotcant rise up before theeyou; for theIm mannerhaving ofmy women is upon meperiod. AndHe he searched, but founddidnt notfind the teraphim. |
| 31:36 |
And Jacob was wrothangry, and chodeargued with Laban:. and Jacob answered and said to Laban, What is my trespass? whatWhat is my sin, that thouyou hasthave hotly pursued after me? |
| 31:37 |
WhereasNow thouthat hastyou have felt aboutaround in all my stuff, what hasthave thouyou found of all thyyour household stuff? Set it here before my brethrenrelatives and thyyour brethrenrelatives, that they may judge betwixtbetween us two. |
| 31:38 |
These twenty years I have I been with thee;you. thyYour ewes and thyyour shefemale goats have not cast their young, and I havent eaten the rams of thyyour flocks have I not eaten. |
| 31:39 |
That which was torn of beastsanimals, I broughtdidnt notbring untoto thee;you. I barebore theits loss. ofOf it; of my hand didstyou thourequired require it, whether stolen by day or stolen by night. |
| 31:40 |
ThusThis I was; my situation: in the day the drought consumed me, and the frost by night; and my sleep fled from minemy eyes. |
| 31:41 |
These twenty years I have I been in thyyour house;. I served theeyou fourteen years for thyyour two daughters, and six years for thyyour flock:, and thouyou hasthave changed my wages ten times. |
| 31:42 |
ExceptUnless the God of my father, the God of Abraham, and the Fearfear of Isaac, had been with me, surely now hadstyou thouwould have sent me away empty. God hathhas seen minemy affliction and the labor of my hands, and rebuked theeyou yesternightlast night. |
| 31:43 |
And Laban answered and said unto Jacob, The daughters are my daughters, and the children are my children, and the flocks are my flocks, and all that thouyou seestsee is mine:! andWhat what can I do thistoday dayto unto these my daughters, or untoto their children whom they have borne? |
| 31:44 |
AndNow now come, letlets us make a covenant, Iyou and thou;I. andLet let it be for a witness between me and theeyou. |
| 31:45 |
And Jacob took a stone, and set it up for a pillar. |
| 31:46 |
And Jacob said untoto his brethrenrelatives, Gather stones;. andThey they took stones, and made a heap:. andThey theyate did eat there by the heap. |
| 31:47 |
And Laban called it Jegar sahaSahadutha, dutha: but Jacob called it Galeed. |
| 31:48 |
And Laban said, This heap is witness between me and theeyou this daytoday. Therefore it was thenamed name of it called Galeed: |
| 31:49 |
and Mizpah, for he said, JehovahYahweh watch between me and theeyou, when we are absent one from another. |
| 31:50 |
If thouyou shalt afflict my daughters, andor if thouyou shalt take wives besidesin addition to my daughters, no man is with us; seebehold, God is witness betwixtbetween me and theeyou. |
| 31:51 |
And Laban said to Jacob, BeholdSee this heap, and beholdsee the pillar, which I have set betwixtbetween me and theeyou. |
| 31:52 |
ThisMay this heap be a witness, and the pillar be a witness, that I will not pass over this heap to theeyou, and that thouyou shaltwill not pass over this heap and this pillar untoto me, for harm. |
| 31:53 |
The God of Abraham, and the God of Nahor, the God of their father, judge betwixtbetween us. AndThen Jacob swareswore by the Fearfear of his father, Isaac. |
| 31:54 |
And Jacob offered a sacrifice in the mountain, and called his brethrenrelatives to eat bread:. andThey theyate did eat bread, and tarriedstayed all night in the mountain. |
| 31:55 |
AndEarly early in the morning, Laban rose up, and kissed his sons and his daughters, and blessed them:. and Laban departed, and returned untoto his place. |
| 32:1 |
And Jacob went on his way, and the angels of God met him. |
| 32:2 |
AndWhen Jacob said when he saw them, Jacob said, This is Gods host:army. andHe he called the name of that place Mahanaim. |
| 32:3 |
And Jacob sent messengers beforein front of him to Esau, his brother, untoto the land of Seir, the field of Edom. |
| 32:4 |
AndHe he commanded them, saying, ThusThis shallis yewhat sayyou untoshall tell my Lord, Esau: ThusThis saithis thywhat your servant, Jacob, says. I have sojournedlived as a foreigner with Laban, and stayed until now:. |
| 32:5 |
and I have oxencattle, and assesdonkeys, and flocks, andmale men servants, and maidfemale servants:. and I have sent to tell my Lord, that I may find favor in thyyour sight. |
| 32:6 |
AndThe the messengers returned to Jacob, saying, We came to thyyour brother Esau,. andHe moreoveris hecoming cometh to meet theeyou, and four hundred men are with him. |
| 32:7 |
Then Jacob was greatly afraid and was distressed:. andHe he divided the people thatwho were with him, andalong with the flocks, and the herds, and the camels, into two companies;. |
| 32:8 |
andHe he said, If Esau comecomes to the one company, and smitestrikes it, then the company which is left shallwill escape. |
| 32:9 |
And Jacob said, O God of my father Abraham, and God of my father Isaac, O JehovahYahweh, who saidstsaid untoto me, Return untoto thyyour country, and to thyyour kindredrelatives, and I will do theeyou good:, |
| 32:10 |
I am not worthy of the least of all the lovingkindnessesloving kindnesses, and of all the truth, which thouyou hasthave showedshown untoto thyyour servant; for with just my staff I passedcrossed over this Jordan; and now I amhave become two companies. |
| 32:11 |
DeliverPlease deliver me, I pray thee, from the hand of my brother, from the hand of Esau:; for I fear him, lest he come and smitestrike me, and the mothermothers with the children. |
| 32:12 |
AndYou thou saidstsaid, I will surely do theeyou good, and make thyyour seedoffspring as the sand of the sea, which cannotcant be numberedcounted forbecause multitudethere are so many. |
| 32:13 |
AndHe hestayed lodged there that night, and took offrom that which he had with him a present for Esau, his brother: |
| 32:14 |
two hundred shefemale goats and twenty hemale goats, two hundred ewes and twenty rams, |
| 32:15 |
thirty milchmilk camels and their colts, forty cows, and ten bulls, twenty shefemale assesdonkeys and ten foals. |
| 32:16 |
AndHe he delivered them into the handhands of his servants, every droveherd by itself, and said untoto his servants, Pass over before me, and put a space betwixtbetween droveherd and droveherd. |
| 32:17 |
AndHe he commanded the foremost, saying, When Esau, my brother, meetethmeets theeyou, and askethasks theeyou, saying, Whose artare thouyou? andWhere whitherare goestyou thougoing? andWhose whose are these before theeyou? |
| 32:18 |
thenThen thouyou shaltshall say, They are thyyour servant, Jacobs;. itIt is a present sent untoto my Lord, Esau:. andBehold, behold, he also is behind us. |
| 32:19 |
AndHe he commanded also the second, and the third, and all that followed the drovesherds, saying, OnThis thisis mannerhow you shall ye speak untoto Esau, when yeyou find him;. |
| 32:20 |
andYou ye shall say, MoreoverNot only that, but behold, thyyour servant, Jacob, is behind us. For, he said, I will appease him with the present that goethgoes before me, and afterward I will see his face;. peradventurePerhaps he will accept me. |
| 32:21 |
So the present passed over before him:, and he himself lodgedstayed that night in the companycamp. |
| 32:22 |
AndHe he rose up that night, and took his two wives, and his two handmaidsservants, and his eleven childrensons, and passedcrossed over the ford of the Jabbok. |
| 32:23 |
AndHe he took them, and sent them over the stream, and sent over that which he had. |
| 32:24 |
And Jacob was left alone;, and there wrestled with a man withthere him until the breaking of the day. |
| 32:25 |
AndWhen when he saw that he prevaileddidnt notprevail against him, hethe man touched the hollow of his thigh;, and the hollow of Jacobs thigh was strained, as he wrestled with him. |
| 32:26 |
AndThe heman said, Let me go, for the day breakethbreaks. AndJacob he said, I willwont not let theeyou go, exceptunless thouyou bless me. |
| 32:27 |
AndHe he said untoto him, What is thyyour name? AndHe he said, Jacob. |
| 32:28 |
AndHe he said, ThyYour name shallwill no longer be called no more Jacob, but Israel:; for thouyou hasthave strivenfought with God and with men, and hasthave prevailed. |
| 32:29 |
And Jacob asked him, andPlease said,tell Tell me, Iyour pray thee, thy name. AndHe he said, WhereforeWhy is it that thouyou dost ask afterwhat my name is? AndSo he blessed him there. |
| 32:30 |
And Jacob called the name of the place Peniel:; for, he said he, I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved. |
| 32:31 |
AndThe the sun rose uponon him as he passed over PenuelPeniel, and he limped uponbecause of his thigh. |
| 32:32 |
Therefore the children of Israel dont eat not the sinew of the hip, which is uponon the hollow of the thigh, untoto this day:, because he touched the hollow of Jacobs thigh in the sinew of the hip. |
| 33:1 |
And Jacob lifted up his eyes, and looked, and, behold, Esau was coming, and with him four hundred men. AndHe he divided the children untobetween Leah, and unto Rachel, and unto the two handmaidsservants. |

AndHe he put the handmaidsservants and their children foremostin front, and Leah and her children after, and Rachel and Joseph hindermostat the rear. |
| 33:3 |
AndHe he himself passed over beforein front of them, and bowed himself to the ground seven times, until he came near to his brother. |

And Esau ran to meet him, and embraced him, and fell on his neck, and kissed him:, and they wept. |
| 33:5 |
AndHe he lifted up his eyes, and saw the women and the children; and said, Who are these with theeyou? AndHe he said, The children whom God hathhas graciously given thyyour servant. |

AndEsau he said, What meanestdo thouyou mean by all this company which I met? AndJacob he said, To find favor in the sight of my Lord. |
| 33:9 |
And Esau said, I have enough, my brother; let that which thouyou hasthave be thineyours. |
| 33:10 |
And Jacob said, NayPlease, I pray theeno, if now I have now found favor in thyyour sight, then receive my present at my hand;, forasmuchbecause as I have seen thyyour face, as one seethsees the face of God, and thouyou wastwere pleased with me. |

Take,Please Itake praythe thee, my gift that isI brought to thee;you, because God hathhas dealt graciously with me, and because I have enough. AndHe he urged him, and he took it. |
| 33:12 |
AndEsau he said, LetLets us take our journey, and letlets us go, and I will go before theeyou. |
| 33:13 |
AndJacob he said untoto him, My Lord knowethknows that the children are tender, and that the flocks and herds with me have their young:, and if they overdrive them one day, all the flocks will die. |
| 33:14 |
LetPlease let my Lord, I pray thee, pass over before his servant:, and I will lead on gently, according to the pace of the cattlelivestock that are before me and according to the pace of the children, until I come untoto my Lord untoto Seir. |

And Esau said, Let me now leave with theeyou some of the folkpeople thatwho are with me. AndHe he said, What needeth itWhy? letLet me find favor in the sight of my Lord. |

So Esau returned that day on his way untoto Seir. |
| 33:17 |
And Jacob journeyedtraveled to Succoth, and built himhimself a house, and made boothsshelters for his cattle:livestock. thereforeTherefore the name of the place is called Succoth. |

| 40:8 |
AndThey they said untoto him, We have dreamed a dream, and there is noneno thatone who can interpret it. And Joseph said untoto them, DoDont not interpretations belong to God? Please tell it to me, I pray you. |
| 40:9 |
AndThe the chief butlercup bearer told his dream to Joseph, and said to him, In my dream, behold, a vine was beforein front of me;, |
| 40:10 |
and in the vine were three branches:. andIt it was as though it budded, andit itsblossomed, blossoms shot forth; and theits clusters thereofproduced brought forth ripe grapes:. |
| 40:11 |
and Pharaohs cup was in my hand; and I took the grapes, and pressed them into Pharaohs cup, and I gave the cup into Pharaohs hand. |
| 40:12 |
And Joseph said untoto him, This is theits interpretation of it: the three branches are three days;. |
| 40:13 |
withinWithin yet three more days, shall Pharaoh will lift up thyyour head, and restore theeyou untoto thineyour office:. andYou thouwill shalt give Pharaohs cup into his hand, after the formerway manneryou did when thouyou wastwere his butlercup bearer. |

But haveremember me in thy remembrance when it shallis be well with thee,you. andPlease show kindness, Ito pray thee, unto me, and make mention of me untoto Pharaoh, and bring me out of this house:. |
| 40:15 |
forFor indeed, I was stolen away out of the land of the Hebrews:, and here also I have I done nothing that they should put me into the dungeon. |
| 40:16 |
When the chief baker saw that the interpretation was good, he said untoto Joseph, I also was in my dream, and, behold, three baskets of white bread were on my head:. |
| 40:17 |
andIn in the uppermost basket there waswere of all mannerkinds of baked food for Pharaoh;, and the birds didate eat them out of the basket uponon my head. |

| 40:19 |
withinWithin yet three more days, shall Pharaoh will lift up thyyour head from off theeyou, and shallwill hang theeyou on a tree; and the birds shallwill eat thyyour flesh from off theeyou. |

Yet did not the chief butlercup bearer didnt remember Joseph, but forgatforgot him. |
| 41:1 |
AndAt it came to pass at the end of two full years, that Pharaoh dreamed:, and, behold, he stood by the river. |
| 41:2 |
AndBehold, behold,seven therecattle came up out of the river. sevenThey kine,were wellsleek favored and fat, fleshed; and they fed in the reedmarsh grass. |
| 41:3 |
AndBehold, behold, seven other kinecattle came up after them out of the river, illugly favored and lean fleshedthin, and stood by the other kinecattle uponon the brink of the river. |
| 41:4 |
AndThe theugly ill favored and leanthin fleshedcattle kineate did eat up the seven wellsleek favored and fat kinecattle. So Pharaoh awoke. |
| 41:5 |
AndHe he slept and dreamed a second time:; and, behold, seven earsheads of grain came up uponon one stalk, rankhealthy and good. |
| 41:6 |
AndBehold, behold, seven earsheads of grain, thin and blasted with the east wind, sprung up after them. |
| 41:7 |
AndThe the thin earsheads of grain swallowed up the seven rankhealthy and full ears. And Pharaoh awoke, and, behold, it was a dream. |
| 41:8 |
AndIn it came to pass in the morning, that his spirit was troubled;, and he sent and called for all theof Egypts magicians of Egypt, and all the wise men. thereof: and Pharaoh told them his dream;dreams, but there was noneno thatone who could interpret them untoto Pharaoh. |
| 41:9 |
Then spake the chief butlercup untobearer spoke to Pharaoh, saying, I do remember my faults this day:today. |
| 41:10 |
Pharaoh was wrothangry with his servants, and put me in wardcustody in the house of the captain of the guard, mewith and the chief baker:. |
| 41:11 |
andWe we dreamed a dream in one night, Ihe and he;I. weEach man dreamed each man according to the interpretation of his dream. |
| 41:12 |
AndThere there was with us there a young man, a Hebrew, servant to the captain of the guard;, and we told him, and he interpreted to us our dreams;. He interpreted to each man according to his dream he did interpret. |
| 41:13 |
AndAs it came to pass, as he interpreted to us, so it was;. meHe he restored untome mineto my office, and him he hanged him. |
| 41:14 |
Then Pharaoh sent and called Joseph, and they brought him hastily out of the dungeon:. andHe he shaved himself, and changed his raimentclothing, and came in untoto Pharaoh. |
| 41:15 |
And Pharaoh said untoto Joseph, I have dreamed a dream, and there is noneno thatone who can interpret it:. and I have heard sayit said of theeyou, that when thouyou hearesthear a dream thouyou canstcan interpret it. |
| 41:16 |
And Joseph answered Pharaoh, saying, It isisnt not in me:. God will give Pharaoh an answer of peace. |
| 41:17 |
And Pharaoh spakespoke untoto Joseph, In my dream, behold, I stood uponon the brink of the river:; |
| 41:18 |
and, behold, thereseven fat and sleek cattle came up out of the river. sevenThey kine, fat fleshed and well favored; and they fed in the reedmarsh grass:; |
| 41:19 |
and, behold, seven other kinecattle came up after them, poor and very illugly favored and lean fleshedthin, such as I never saw in all the land of Egypt for badness:ugliness. |
| 41:20 |
andThe thethin lean and illugly favoredcattle kineate did eat up the first seven fat kine:cattle; |
| 41:21 |
and when they had eaten them up, it couldcouldnt not be known that they had eaten them;, but they were still ill favoredugly, as at the beginning. So I awoke. |
| 41:22 |
And I saw in my dream, and, behold, seven earsheads of grain came up uponon one stalk, full and good:; |
| 41:23 |
and, behold, seven earsheads of grain, withered, thin, and blasted with the east wind, sprung up after them:. |
| 41:24 |
andThe the thin earsheads of grain swallowed up the seven good ears:heads andof grain. I told it untoto the magicians;, but there was noneno thatone who could declareexplain it to me. |
| 41:25 |
And Joseph said untoto Pharaoh, The dream of Pharaoh is one:. whatWhat God is about to do he hathhas declared untoto Pharaoh. |
| 41:26 |
The seven good kinecattle are seven years; and the seven good earsheads of grain are seven years:. theThe dream is one. |
| 41:27 |
AndThe the seven leanthin and illugly favoredcattle kine that came up after them are seven years, and also the seven empty earsheads of grain blasted with the east wind; they shallwill be seven years of famine. |
| 41:28 |
That is the thing which I spakehave untospoken to Pharaoh:. what God ishas aboutshown toPharaoh dowhat he hathis showedabout untoto Pharaohdo. |
| 41:29 |
Behold, there come seven years of great plenty throughout all the land of Egypt: are coming. |
| 41:30 |
andSeven thereyears shallof famine will arise after them, seven years of famine; and all the plenty shallwill be forgotten in the land of Egypt;. andThe the famine shallwill consume the land;, |
| 41:31 |
and the plenty shallwill not be known in the land by reason of that famine which followethfollows; for it shallwill be very grievous. |
| 41:32 |
AndThe for that the dream was doubled untoto Pharaoh, it is because the thing is established by God, and God will shortly bring it to pass. |
| 41:33 |
Now therefore let Pharaoh look outfor a man discreet and wise man, and set him over the land of Egypt. |
| 41:34 |
Let Pharaoh do this, and let him appoint overseers over the land, and take up the fifth part of the land of EgyptEgypts produce in the seven plenteous years. |
| 41:35 |
AndLet let them gather all the food of these good years that come, and laystore up grain under the hand of Pharaoh for food in the cities, and let them keep it. |
| 41:36 |
AndThe the food shallwill be forto asupply store to the land against the seven years of famine, which shallwill be in the land of Egypt; so that the land perishwill not perish through the famine. |
| 41:37 |
AndThe the thing was good in the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of all his servants. |
| 41:38 |
And Pharaoh said untoto his servants, Can we find such a one as this, a man in whom is the spiritSpirit of God is? |
| 41:39 |
And Pharaoh said untoto Joseph, ForasmuchBecause as God hathhas showedshown theeyou all of this, there is noneno one so discreet and wise as thou:you. |
| 41:40 |
thouYou shaltshall be over my house,. andAll accordingmy untopeople thywill wordbe shallruled allaccording myto peopleyour beword. ruled:Only only in the throne I will I be greater than thouyou. |
| 41:41 |
And Pharaoh said untoto Joseph, SeeBehold, I have set theeyou over all the land of Egypt. |
| 41:42 |
And Pharaoh took off his signet ring from his hand, and put it uponon Josephs hand, and arrayed him in vesturesrobes of fine linen, and put a gold chain about his neck;. |
| 41:43 |
andHe he made him to ride in the second chariot which he had;. andThey they cried before him, Bow the knee:! andHe he set him over all the land of Egypt. |
| 41:44 |
And Pharaoh said untoto Joseph, I am Pharaoh,. andWithout withoutyou, thee shall no man shall lift up his hand or his foot in all the land of Egypt. |
| 41:45 |
And Pharaoh called Josephs name Zaphenath paneah;Paneah. andHe he gave him to wife Asenath, the daughter of PotiPotiphera phera priest of On as a wife. And Joseph went out over the land of Egypt. |
| 41:46 |
And Joseph was thirty years old when he stood before Pharaoh king of Egypt. And Joseph went out from the presence of Pharaoh, and went throughout all the land of Egypt. |
| 41:47 |
AndIn in the seven plenteous years the earth broughtproduced forth by handfulsabundantly. |
| 41:48 |
AndHe he gathered up all the food of the seven years which were in the land of Egypt, and laid up the food in the cities:. theHe stored food ofin theeach field,city whichfrom wasthe roundfields aboutaround everythat city, laid he up in the same. |
| 41:49 |
And Joseph laid up grain as the sand of the sea, very much, until he leftstopped offcounting, numbering; for it was without number. |
| 41:50 |
AndTo unto Joseph were born two sons before the year of famine came, whom Asenath, the daughter of Potiphera priest of On, barebore untoto him. |
| 41:51 |
And Joseph called the name of the firstfirstborn born Manasseh:, For, he said he, God hathhas made me forget all my toil, and all my fathers house. |
| 41:52 |
AndThe the name of the second, he called he Ephraim: For God hathhas made me fruitful in the land of my affliction. |
| 41:53 |
AndThe the seven years of plenty, that waswere in the land of Egypt, came to an end. |
| 41:54 |
AndThe the seven years of famine began to come, accordingjust as Joseph had said:. andThere there was famine in all lands;, but in all the land of Egypt there was bread. |
| 41:55 |
AndWhen when all the land of Egypt was famished, the people cried to Pharaoh for bread:, and Pharaoh said untoto all the Egyptians, Go untoto Joseph;. whatWhat he saithsays to you, do. |
| 41:56 |
AndThe the famine was over all the facesurface of the earth:. and Joseph opened all the store houses, and sold untoto the Egyptians;. andThe the famine was soresevere in the land of Egypt. |
| 41:57 |
AndAll all countries came into Egypt, to Joseph, to buy grain, because the famine was soresevere in all the earth. |
| 42:1 |
Now Jacob saw that there was grain in Egypt, and Jacob said untoto his sons, Why do yeyou look at one upon another? |
| 42:2 |
AndHe he said, Behold, I have heard that there is grain in Egypt:. getGo you down thitherthere, and buy for us from thence;there, so that we may live, and not die. |
| 42:3 |
And Josephs ten brethrenbrothers went down to buy grain from Egypt. |
| 42:4 |
But Jacob didnt send Benjamin, Josephs brother, Jacob sent not with his brethrenbrothers; for he said, Lest peradventureperhaps harm befallhappen to him. |
| 42:5 |
AndThe the sons of Israel came to buy among those thatwho came:, for the famine was in the land of Canaan. |
| 42:6 |
And Joseph was the governor over the land;. heIt it was thathe who sold to all the people of the land. And Josephs brethrenbrothers came, and bowed themselves down themselves to him with their faces to the earth. |

And Joseph saw his brethrenbrothers, and he knewrecognized them, but madeacted himselflike strangea untostranger to them, and spakespoke roughly with them;. andHe he said untoto them, WhenceWhere did you come yefrom? AndThey they said, From the land of Canaan, to buy food. |
| 42:8 |
And Joseph knewrecognized his brethrenbrothers, but they knewdidnt notrecognize him. |
| 42:9 |
And Joseph remembered the dreams which he dreamed ofabout them, and said untoto them, YeYou are spies;! You have come to see the nakedness of the land ye are come. |
| 42:10 |
AndThey they said untoto him, NayNo, my Lord, but toyour buyservants foodhave arecome thyto servantsbuy comefood. |
| 42:11 |
We are all one mans sons; we are truehonest men,. thyYour servants are nonot spies. |
| 42:12 |
AndHe he said untoto them, NayNo, but you have come to see the nakedness of the land ye are come.! |
| 42:13 |
AndThey they said, We, thyyour servants, are twelve brethrenbrothers, the sons of one man in the land of Canaan; and, behold, the youngest is thistoday day with our father, and one is notno more. |
| 42:14 |
And Joseph said untoto them, ThatIt is itlike that I spaketold unto you, saying, YeYou are spies:! |

Send one of you, and let him fetchget your brother, and yeyou shall be bound, that your words may be provedtested, whether there beis truth in you:, or else by the life of Pharaoh surely yeyou are spies. |
| 42:17 |
AndHe he put them all together into wardcustody for three days. |
| 42:18 |
And Joseph said untoto them the third day, ThisDo dothis, and live;, for I fear God:. |
| 42:19 |
ifIf yeyou beare truehonest men, then let one of your brethrenbrothers be bound in your prison house; but you go ye, carry grain for the famine of your houses:. |
| 42:20 |
andBring bring your youngest brother untoto me; so shallwill your words be verified, and yeyou shallwont not die. AndThey they did so. |

AndThey they said to one to another, We are verilycertainly guilty concerning our brother, in that we saw the distress of his soul, when he besoughtbegged us, and we wouldwouldnt notlisten. hear;Therefore therefore is this distress has come upon us. |
| 42:22 |
And Reuben answered them, saying, SpakeDidnt I nottell unto you, saying, DoDont not sin against the child;, and yeyou wouldwouldnt not hearlisten? thereforeTherefore also, behold, his blood is required. |
| 42:23 |
AndThey theydidnt knewknow not that Joseph understood them; for there was an interpreter between them. |
| 42:24 |
AndHe he turned himself aboutaway from them, and wept;. andThen he returned to them, and spakespoke to them, and took Simeon from among them, and bound him before their eyes. |
| 42:25 |
Then Joseph commandedgave a command to fill their vesselsbags with grain, and to restore everyeach mans money into his sack, and to give them provisionfood for the way:. andSo thusit was it done untoto them. |
| 42:26 |
AndThey theyloaded laded their assesdonkeys with their grain, and departed thencefrom there. |

AndAs as one of them opened his sack to give his assdonkey provenderfood in the lodging place, he espiedsaw his money;. andBehold, behold, it was in the mouth of his sack. |
| 42:28 |
AndHe he said untoto his brethrenbrothers, My money is restored;! andBehold, lo, it is even in my sack:! andTheir theirhearts heart failed them, and they turned trembling to one to another, saying, What is this that God hathhas done untoto us? |
| 42:29 |
AndThey they came untoto Jacob their father, untoto the land of Canaan, and told him all that had befallenhappened to them, saying, |
| 42:30 |
The man, the Lord of the land, spakespoke roughly with us, and took us for spies of the country. |
| 42:31 |
AndWe we said untoto him, We are truehonest men;. weWe are no spies:. |
| 42:32 |
weWe are twelve brethrenbrothers, sons of our father; one is notno more, and the youngest is thistoday day with our father in the land of Canaan. |

| 42:35 |
AndAs it came to pass as they emptied their sacks, that, behold, everyeach mans bundle of money was in his sack:. andWhen when they and their father saw their bundles of money, they were afraid. |
| 42:36 |
And Jacob, their father, said untoto them, MeYou have ye bereaved me of my children:! Joseph is notno more, and Simeon is notno more, and yeyou willwant to take Benjamin away:. allAll these things are against me. |

AndWhen when Joseph saw Benjamin with them, he said to the steward of his house, Bring the men into the house, and slaybutcher an animal, and make readyprepare; for the men shallwill dine with me at noon. |
| 43:17 |
AndThe the man did as Joseph bade;commanded, and the man brought the men to Josephs house. |
| 43:18 |
AndThe the men were afraid, because they were brought to Josephs house; and they said, Because of the money that was returned in our sacks at the first time, arewere we brought in; that he may seek occasion against us, andattack fall upon us, and takeseize us foras bondmenslaves, andalong with our assesdonkeys. |
| 43:19 |
AndThey they came near to the steward of Josephs house, and they spakespoke untoto him at the door of the house, |

| 44:4 |
AndWhen when they werehad gone out of the city, and were not yet far off, Joseph said untoto his steward, Up, follow after the men;. andWhen whenyou thou dost overtake them, sayask unto them, WhereforeWhy have yeyou rewarded evil for good? |
| 44:5 |
IsIsnt not this that infrom which my Lord drinkethdrinks, and wherebyby which he indeed divinethdivines? yeYou have done evil in so doing. |
| 44:6 |
AndHe he overtook them, and he spakespoke untothese themwords theseto wordsthem. |
| 44:7 |
AndThey they said untoto him, WhereforeWhy speakethdoes my Lord speak such words as these? Far be it from thyyour servants that they should do such a thing.! |
| 44:8 |
Behold, the money, which we found in our sacks mouths, we brought again untoto theeyou out of the land of Canaan:. howHow then should we steal silver or gold out of thyyour Lords house silver or gold? |
| 44:9 |
With whomsoeverwhomever of thyyour servants it beis found, let him die, and we also will be my Lords bondmenslaves. |
| 44:10 |
AndHe he said, Now also let it be according untoto your words:. heHe with whom it is found shallwill be my bondmanslave; and yeyou shallwill be blameless. |
| 44:11 |
Then they hastedhurried, and tookeach downman everytook man his sack down to the ground, and openedeach every man opened his sack. |
| 44:12 |
AndHe he searched, andbeginning beganwith at the eldestoldest, and leftending off at the youngest:. andThe the cup was found in Benjamins sack. |
| 44:13 |
Then they renttore their clothes, and ladedeach every man loaded his assdonkey, and returned to the city. |
| 44:14 |
And Judah and his brethrenbrothers came to Josephs house;, and he was yetstill there:. andThey they fell before him on the ground before him. |
| 44:15 |
And Joseph said untoto them, What deed is this that yeyou have done? knowDont yeyou notknow that such a man as I can indeed divinedo divination? |
| 44:16 |
And Judah said, What shallwill we saytell unto my Lord? whatWhat shallwill we speak? orHow howwill shall we clear ourselves? God hathhas found out the iniquity of thyyour servants:. beholdBehold, we are my Lords bondmenslaves, both we, and he also in whose hand the cup is found. |
| 44:17 |
AndHe he said, Far be it from me that I should do so:. theThe man in whose hand the cup is found, he shallwill be my bondmanslave; but as for you, getgo you up in peace untoto your father. |
| 44:18 |
Then Judah came near untoto him, and said, Oh, my Lord, please let thyyour servant, I pray thee, speak a word in my Lords ears, and dont let notyour thine anger burn against thyyour servant; for thouyou artare even as Pharaoh. |
| 44:19 |
My Lord asked his servants, saying, Have yeyou a father, or a brother? |
| 44:20 |
AndWe we said untoto my Lord, We have a father, an old man, and a child of his old age, a little one; and his brother is dead, and he alone is left of his mother; and his father lovethloves him. |
| 44:21 |
AndYou thousaid saidstto untoyour thy servants, Bring him down untoto me, that I may set minemy eyes uponon him. |
| 44:22 |
AndWe we said untoto my Lord, The ladboy cannotcant leave his father:, for if he should leave his father, his father would die. |
| 44:23 |
AndYou thousaid saidstto untoyour thy servants, ExceptUnless your youngest brother comecomes down with you, yeyou shallwill see my face no more. |
| 44:24 |
AndWhen it came to pass when we came up untoto thyyour servant my father, we told him the words of my Lord. |
| 44:25 |
AndOur our father said, Go again, and buy us a little food. |
| 44:26 |
AndWe we said, We cannotcant go down:. ifIf our youngest brother beis with us, then we will we go down;: for we may not see the mans face, exceptunless our youngest brother beis with us. |
| 44:27 |
AndYour thy servant, my father, said untoto us, YeYou know that my wife barebore me two sons:. |
| 44:28 |
andOne the one went out from me, and I said, Surely he is torn in pieces; and I havehavent not seen him since:. |
| 44:29 |
andIf ifyou ye take this one also from me, and harm befallhappens to him, yeyou will bring down my gray hairs with sorrow to Sheol. |
| 44:30 |
Now therefore when I come to thyyour servant my father, and the ladboy is not with us; seeingsince that his life is bound up in the ladsboys life; |
| 44:31 |
it will come to passhappen, when he seethsees that the ladboy is notno with usmore, that he will die:. andYour thy servants will bring down the gray hairs of thyyour servant, our father, with sorrow to Sheol. |
| 44:32 |
For thyyour servant became suretycollateral for the ladboy untoto my father, saying, If I dont bring him notto unto theeyou, then shall I will bear the blame to my father for everforever. |
| 44:33 |
Now therefore, please let thyyour servant, Istay pray thee, abide instead of the ladboy, amy bondmanLords to my Lordslave; and let the ladboy go up with his brethrenbrothers. |
| 44:34 |
For how shallwill I go up to my father, if the ladboy beisnt not with me? ?—lest I see the evil that shallwill come on my father. |
| 45:1 |
Then Joseph couldcouldnt notcontrol refrain himself before all themthose thatwho stood bybefore him;, and he criedcalled out, Cause everyeveryone man to go out from me.! AndNo thereone else stood no man with him, while Joseph made himself known untoto his brethrenbrothers. |

| 47:13 |
AndThere there was no bread in all the land; for the famine was very soresevere, so that the land of Egypt and the land of Canaan fainted by reason of the famine. |

| 47:21 |
AndAs as for the people, he removedmoved them to the cities from one end of the border of Egypt even to the other end thereofof it. |
| 47:22 |
Only he didnt buy the land of the priests, bought he not: for the priests had a portion from Pharaoh, and didate eat their portion which Pharaoh gave them;. whereforeThat is why they solddidnt notsell their land. |
| 47:23 |
Then Joseph said untoto the people, Behold, I have bought you this day and your land today for Pharaoh:. loBehold, here is seed for you, and yeyou shall sow the land. |
| 47:24 |
AndIt itwill shallhappen come to pass at the ingatheringsharvests, that yeyou shall give a fifth untoto Pharaoh, and four parts shallwill be your own, for seed of the field, and for your food, and for them of your households, and for food for your little ones. |
| 47:25 |
AndThey they said, ThouYou hasthave saved our lives:! letLet us find favor in the sight of my Lord, and we will be Pharaohs servants. |
| 47:26 |
And Joseph made it a statute concerning the land of Egypt untoto this day, that Pharaoh should have the fifth;. onlyOnly the land of the priests alone becamedidnt notbecome Pharaohs. |
| 47:27 |
And Israel dweltlived in the land of Egypt, in the land of Goshen; and they gatgot themthemselves possessions therein, and were fruitful, and multiplied exceedingly. |
| 47:28 |
And Jacob lived in the land of Egypt seventeen years:. soSo the days of Jacob, the years of his life, were aone hundred forty and seven years. |
| 47:29 |
AndThe the time drewcame near that Israel must die:, and he called his son Joseph, and said untoto him, If now I have found favor in thyyour sight, please put, Iyour pray thee, thy hand under my thigh, and deal kindly and truly with me:. Please dont bury me not, I pray thee, in Egypt;, |
| 47:30 |
but when I sleep with my fathers, thouyou shaltshall carry me out of Egypt, and bury me in their burying place. AndJoseph he said, I will do as thouyou hasthave said. |
| 47:31 |
AndIsrael he said, Swear untoto me:, and he swareswore untoto him. AndThen Israel bowed himself uponon the beds head. |
| 48:1 |
AndAfter it came to pass after these things, thatsomeone one said to Joseph, Behold, thyyour father is sick:. andHe he took with him his two sons, Manasseh and Ephraim. |
| 48:2 |
AndSomeone one told Jacob, and said, Behold, thyyour son Joseph comethcomes untoto thee:you, and Israel strengthened himself, and sat uponon the bed. |
| 48:3 |
And Jacob said untoto Joseph, God Almighty appeared untoto me at Luz in the land of Canaan, and blessed me, |
| 48:4 |
and said untoto me, Behold, I will make theeyou fruitful, and multiply theeyou, and I will make of theeyou a company of peoples, and will give this land to thyyour seedoffspring after theeyou for an everlasting possession. |
| 48:5 |
AndNow nowyour thy two sons, who were born untoto theeyou in the land of Egypt before I came untoto theeyou into Egypt, are mine; Ephraim and Manasseh, even as Reuben and Simeon, shallwill be mine. |
| 48:6 |
AndYour thy issueoffspring, thatwhom thouyou begettestbecome the father of after them, shallwill be thine;yours. theyThey shallwill be called after the name of their brethrenbrothers in their inheritance. |
| 48:7 |
AndAs as for me, when I came from Paddan, Rachel died bybeside me in the land of Canaan inon the way, when there was still some distance to come untoto Ephrath:, and I buried her there inon the way to Ephrath thealso samecalled is Beth lehemBethlehem. |
| 48:8 |
And Israel beheldsaw Josephs sons, and said, Who are these? |
| 48:9 |
And Joseph said untoto his father, They are my sons, whom God hathhas given me here. AndHe he said, BringPlease bring them, Ito pray thee, unto me, and I will bless them. |
| 48:10 |
Now the eyes of Israel were dim for age, so that he couldcouldnt notsee seewell. AndJoseph he brought them near untoto him; and he kissed them, and embraced them. |
| 48:11 |
And Israel said untoto Joseph, I haddidnt notthink thoughtI towould see thyyour face:, and, lobehold, God hathhas let me see thyyour seedoffspring also. |
| 48:12 |
And Joseph brought them out from between his knees;, and he bowed himself with his face to the earth. |
| 48:13 |
And Joseph took them both, Ephraim in his right hand toward Israels left hand, and Manasseh in his left hand toward Israels right hand, and brought them near untoto him. |
| 48:14 |
And Israel stretched out his right hand, and laid it uponon Ephraims head, who was the younger, and his left hand uponon Manassehs head, guiding his hands wittingly;knowingly, for Manasseh was the first bornfirstborn. |
| 48:15 |
AndHe he blessed Joseph, and said, The God before whom my fathers Abraham and Isaac did walkwalked, the God who hathhas fed me all my life long untoto this day, |
| 48:16 |
the angel who hathhas redeemed me from all evil, bless the lads;, and let my name be named on them, and the name of my fathers Abraham and Isaac;. andLet let them grow into a multitude inupon the midst of the earth. |
| 48:17 |
