Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
1Then Joseph couldn’t control himself before all those who stood before him, and he called out, “Cause everyone to go out from me!” No one else stood with him, while Joseph made himself known to his brothers.
1约瑟 在左右站着的人面前情不自禁,吩咐一声说:「人都要离开我出去!」 约瑟 和弟兄们相认的时候并没有一人站在他面前。
2He wept aloud. The Egyptians heard, and the house of Pharaoh heard.
2他就放声大哭; 埃及 人和法老家中的人都听见了。
3Joseph said to his brothers, “I am Joseph! Does my father still live?” His brothers couldn’t answer him; for they were terrified at his presence.
3约瑟 对他弟兄们说:「我是 约瑟 。我的父亲还在吗?」他弟兄不能回答,因为在他面前都惊惶。
4Joseph said to his brothers, “Come near to me, please.” They came near. He said, “I am Joseph, your brother, whom you sold into Egypt.
4约瑟 又对他弟兄们说:「请你们近前来。」他们就近前来。他说:「我是你们的兄弟 约瑟 ,就是你们所卖到 埃及 的。
5Now don’t be grieved, nor angry with yourselves, that you sold me here, for God sent me before you to preserve life.
5现在,不要因为把我卖到这里自忧自恨。这是 神差我在你们以先来,为要保全生命。
6For these two years the famine has been in the land, and there are yet five years, in which there will be no plowing and no harvest.
6现在这地的饥荒已经二年了,还有五年不能耕种,不能收成。
7God sent me before you to preserve for you a remnant on the earth, and to save you alive by a great deliverance.
7神差我在你们以先来,为要给你们存留余种在世上,又要大施拯救,保全你们的生命。
8So now it wasn’t you who sent me here, but God, and he has made me a father to Pharaoh, lord of all his house, and ruler over all the land of Egypt.
8这样看来,差我到这里来的不是你们,乃是 神。他又使我如法老的父,作他全家的主,并 埃及 全地的宰相。
9Hurry, and go up to my father, and tell him, ‘This is what your son Joseph says, “God has made me lord of all Egypt. Come down to me. Don’t wait.
9你们要赶紧上到我父亲那里,对他说:『你儿子 约瑟 这样说: 神使我作全 埃及 的主,请你下到我这里来,不要耽延。
10You shall dwell in the land of Goshen, and you will be near to me, you, your children, your children’s children, your flocks, your herds, and all that you have.
10你和你的儿子孙子,连牛群羊群,并一切所有的,都可以住在 歌珊 地,与我相近。
11There I will provide for you; for there are yet five years of famine; lest you come to poverty, you, and your household, and all that you have.”’
11我要在那里奉养你;因为还有五年的饥荒,免得你和你的眷属,并一切所有的,都败落了。』
12Behold, your eyes see, and the eyes of my brother Benjamin, that it is my mouth that speaks to you.
12况且你们的眼和我兄弟 便雅悯 的眼都看见是我亲口对你们说话。
13You shall tell my father of all my glory in Egypt, and of all that you have seen. You shall hurry and bring my father down here.”
13你们也要将我在 埃及 一切的荣耀和你们所看见的事都告诉我父亲,又要赶紧地将我父亲搬到我这里来。」
14He fell on his brother Benjamin’s neck and wept, and Benjamin wept on his neck.
14于是 约瑟 伏在他兄弟 便雅悯 的颈项上哭, 便雅悯 也在他的颈项上哭。
15He kissed all his brothers, and wept on them. After that his brothers talked with him.
15他又与众弟兄亲嘴,抱着他们哭,随后他弟兄们就和他说话。
16The report of it was heard in Pharaoh’s house, saying, “Joseph’s brothers have come.” It pleased Pharaoh well, and his servants.
16这风声传到法老的宫里,说:「 约瑟 的弟兄们来了。」法老和他的臣仆都很喜欢。
17Pharaoh said to Joseph, “Tell your brothers, ‘Do this: Load your animals, and go, travel to the land of Canaan.
17法老对 约瑟 说:「你吩咐你的弟兄们说:『你们要这样行:把驮子抬在牲口上,起身往 迦南 地去。
18Take your father and your households, and come to me, and I will give you the good of the land of Egypt, and you will eat the fat of the land.’
18将你们的父亲和你们的眷属都搬到我这里来,我要把 埃及 地的美物赐给你们,你们也要吃这地肥美的出产。
19Now you are commanded to do this: Take wagons out of the land of Egypt for your little ones, and for your wives, and bring your father, and come.
19现在我吩咐你们要这样行:从 埃及 地带着车辆去,把你们的孩子和妻子,并你们的父亲都搬来。
20Also, don’t concern yourselves about your belongings, for the good of all the land of Egypt is yours.”
20你们眼中不要爱惜你们的家具,因为 埃及 全地的美物都是你们的。』」
21The sons of Israel did so. Joseph gave them wagons, according to the commandment of Pharaoh, and gave them provision for the way.
21以色列 的儿子们就如此行。 约瑟 照着法老的吩咐给他们车辆和路上用的食物,
22He gave each one of them changes of clothing, but to Benjamin he gave three hundred pieces of silver and five changes of clothing.
22又给他们各人一套衣服,惟独给 便雅悯 三百银子,五套衣服;
23He sent the following to his father: ten donkeys loaded with the good things of Egypt, and ten female donkeys loaded with grain and bread and provision for his father by the way.
23送给他父亲公驴十匹,驮着 埃及 的美物,母驴十匹,驮着粮食与饼和菜,为他父亲路上用。
24So he sent his brothers away, and they departed. He said to them, “See that you don’t quarrel on the way.”
24于是 约瑟 打发他弟兄们回去,又对他们说:「你们不要在路上相争。」
25They went up out of Egypt, and came into the land of Canaan, to Jacob their father.
25他们从 埃及 上去,来到 迦南 地、他们的父亲 雅各 那里,
26They told him, saying, “Joseph is still alive, and he is ruler over all the land of Egypt.” His heart fainted, for he didn’t believe them.
26告诉他说:「 约瑟 还在,并且作 埃及 全地的宰相。」 雅各 心里冰凉,因为不信他们。
27They told him all the words of Joseph, which he had said to them. When he saw the wagons which Joseph had sent to carry him, the spirit of Jacob, their father, revived.
27他们便将 约瑟 对他们说的一切话都告诉了他。他们父亲 雅各 又看见 约瑟 打发来接他的车辆,心就苏醒了。
28Israel said, “It is enough. Joseph my son is still alive. I will go and see him before I die.”
28以色列 说:「罢了!罢了!我的儿子 约瑟 还在,趁我未死以先,我要去见他一面。」
