Joseph

and the seven years of famine begin to come, as Joseph said, and famine is in all the lands, but in all the land of Egypt hath been bread;

and all the land of Egypt is famished, and the people crieth unto Pharaoh for bread, and Pharaoh saith to all the Egyptians, `Go unto Joseph; that which he saith to you--do.'

And the famine has been over all the face of the land, and Joseph openeth all places which have corn in them, and selleth to the Egyptians; and the famine is severe in the land of Egypt,

and all the earth hath come to Egypt, to buy, unto Joseph, for the famine was severe in all the earth.

and the ten brethren of Joseph go down to buy corn in Egypt,

and Benjamin, Joseph's brother, Jacob hath not sent with his brethren, for he said, `Lest mischief meet him.'

and Joseph is the ruler over the land, he who is selling to all the people of the land, and Joseph's brethren come and bow themselves to him--face to the earth.

And Joseph seeth his brethren, and discerneth them, and maketh himself strange unto them, and speaketh with them sharp things, and saith unto them, `From whence have ye come?' and they say, `From the land of Canaan--to buy food.'

And Joseph discerneth his brethren, but they have not discerned him,

and Joseph remembereth the dreams which he dreamed of them, and saith unto them, `Ye are spies; to see the nakedness of the land ye have come.'

And Joseph saith unto them, `This is that which I have spoken unto you, saying, Ye are spies,

And Joseph saith unto them on the third day, `This do and live; God I fear!

And they have not known that Joseph understandeth, for the interpreter is between them;

And Joseph commandeth, and they fill their vessels with corn, also to put back the money of each unto his sack, and to give to them provision for the way; and one doth to them so.

and Jacob their father saith unto them, `Me ye have bereaved; Joseph is not, and Simeon is not, and Benjamin ye take--against me have been all these.'

And the men take this present, double money also they have taken in their hand, and Benjamin; and they rise, and go down to Egypt, and stand before Joseph;

and Joseph seeth Benjamin with them, and saith to him who is over his house, `Bring the men into the house, and slaughter an animal, and make ready, for with me do the men eat at noon.'

And the man doth as Joseph hath said, and the man bringeth in the men into the house of Joseph,

and the men are afraid because they have been brought into the house of Joseph, and they say, `For the matter of the money which was put back in our bags at the commencement are we brought in--to roll himself upon us, and to throw himself on us, and to take us for servants--our asses also.'

And they come nigh unto the man who is over the house of Joseph, and speak unto him at the opening of the house,

And the man bringeth in the men into Joseph's house, and giveth water, and they wash their feet; and he giveth provender for their asses,

and they prepare the present until the coming of Joseph at noon, for they have heard that there they do eat bread.

And Joseph cometh into the house, and they bring to him the present which is in their hand, into the house, and bow themselves to him, to the earth;

And Joseph hasteth, for his bowels have been moved for his brother, and he seeketh to weep, and entereth the inner chamber, and weepeth there;

and my cup, the silver cup, thou dost put in the mouth of the bag of the young one, and his corn-money;' and he doth according to the word of Joseph which he hath spoken.
