Genesis 43 - King James Bible with Strong Numbers

¹ H7458And the famineH3515was soreH776in the land.

² H3615And it came to pass, when they had eaten up[H8765] H398 [H8800] H7668the cornH935which they had brought out[H8689] H4714of EgyptH1, their fatherH559said[H8799] H7725unto them, Go again[H8798] H7666, buy[H8798] H4592us a littleH400food.

³ H3063And JudahH559spake[H8799] H559unto him, saying[H8800] H376, The manH5749did solemnly[H8687] H5749protest[H8689] H559unto us, saying[H8800] H7200, Ye shall not see[H8799] H6440my faceH1115, exceptH251your brother be with you.

⁴ H3426If thou wiltH7971send[H8764] H251our brotherH3381with us, we will go down[H8799] H7666and buy[H8799] H400thee food:

⁵ H7971But if thou wilt not send[H8764] H3381him, we will not go down[H8799] H376: for the manH559said[H8804] H7200unto us, Ye shall not see[H8799] H6440my faceH251, except your brother be with you.

⁶ H3478And IsraelH559said[H8799] H7489, Wherefore dealt ye so ill[H8689] H5046with me, as to tell[H8687] H376the manH251whether ye had yet a brother?

⁷ H559And they said[H8799] H376, The manH7592asked[H8804] H7592us straitly[H8800] H4138of our state, and of our kindredH559, saying[H8800] H1, Is your fatherH2416yet aliveH3426? have yeH251another brotherH5046? and we told[H8686] H5921him accordingH6310to the tenorH1697of these wordsH3045: could we certainly[H8800] H3045know[H8799] H559that he would say[H8799] H3381, BringH251your brotherH3381down[H8685] ?

⁸ H3063And JudahH559said[H8799] H3478unto IsraelH1his fatherH7971, Send[H8798] H5288the ladH6965with me, and we will arise[H8799] H3212and go[H8799] H2421; that we may live[H8799] H4191, and not die[H8799] H2945, both we, and thou, and also our little ones.

⁹ H6148I will be surety[H8799] H3027for him; of my handH1245shalt thou require[H8762] H518him: ifH935I bring[H8689] H518him notH3322unto thee, and set[H8689] H6440him before theeH2398, then let me bear the blame[H8804] H3117for ever:

¹⁰ H3884For exceptH4102we had lingered[H8701] H7725, surely now we had returned[H8804] H6471this second time.

¹¹ H1And their fatherH3478IsraelH559said[H8799] H645unto them, If it must be so nowH6213, do[H8798] H3947this; take[H8798] H2173of the best fruitsH776in the landH3627in your vesselsH3381, and carry down[H8685] H376the manH4503a presentH4592, a littleH6875balmH4592, and a littleH1706honeyH5219, spicesH3910, and myrrhH992, nutsH8247, and almonds:

¹² H3947And take[H8798] H4932doubleH3701moneyH3027in your handH3701; and the moneyH7725that was brought again[H8716] H6310in the mouthH572of your sacksH7725, carry it again[H8686] H3027in your handH4870; peradventure it was an oversight:

¹³ H3947Take[H8798] H251also your brotherH6965, and arise[H8798] H7725, go again[H8798] H376unto the man:

¹⁴ H410And GodH7706AlmightyH5414give[H8799] H7356you mercyH6440beforeH376the manH7971, that he may send away[H8765] H312your otherH251brotherH1144, and BenjaminH834. IfH7921I be bereaved[H8804] H7921of my children, I am bereaved[H8804] .

¹⁵ H582And the menH3947took[H8799] H2063thatH4503presentH3947, and they took[H8804] H4932doubleH3701moneyH3027in their handH1144, and BenjaminH6965; and rose up[H8799] H3381, and went down[H8799] H4714to EgyptH5975, and stood[H8799] H6440beforeH3130Joseph.

¹⁶ H3130And when JosephH7200saw[H8799] H1144BenjaminH854withH559them, he said[H8799] H1004to the ruler of his houseH935, Bring[H8685] H582these menH1004homeH2873, and slay[H8800] H2874 H3559, and make ready[H8685] H582; for these menH398shall dine[H8799] H6672with me at noon.

¹⁷ H376And the manH6213did[H8799] H3130as JosephH559bade[H8804] H376; and the manH935brought[H8686] H582the menH3130into Joseph'sH1004house.

¹⁸ H582And the menH3372were afraid[H8799] H935, because they were brought[H8717] H3130into Joseph'sH1004houseH559; and they said[H8799] H1697, BecauseH3701of the moneyH7725that was returned[H8802] H572in our sacksH8462at the first timeH935are we brought in[H8716] H1556; that he may seek occasion[H8705] H5307against us, and fall[H8692] H3947upon us, and take[H8800] H5650us for bondmenH2543, and our asses.

¹⁹ H5066And they came near[H8799] H376to the stewardH3130of Joseph'sH1004houseH1696, and they communed[H8762] H6607with him at the doorH1004of the house,

²⁰ H559And said[H8799] H994, OH113sirH3381, we came indeed[H8800] H3381down[H8804] H8462at the first timeH7666to buy[H8800] H400food:

²¹ H935And it came to pass, when we came[H8804] H4411to the innH6605, that we opened[H8799] H572our sacksH376, and, behold, every man'sH3701moneyH6310was in the mouthH572of his sackH3701, our moneyH4948in full weightH7725: and we have brought it again[H8686] H3027in our hand.

²² H312And otherH3701moneyH3381have we brought down[H8689] H3027in our handsH7666to buy[H8800] H400foodH3045: we cannot tell[H8804] H7760who put[H8804] H3701our moneyH572in our sacks.

²³ H559And he said[H8799] H7965, PeaceH3372be to you, fear[H8799] H430not: your GodH430, and the GodH1of your fatherH5414, hath given[H8804] H4301you treasureH572in your sacksH935: I had[H8804] H3701your moneyH3318. And he brought[H8686] H8095Simeon out unto them.

²⁴ H376And the manH935brought[H8686] H582the menH3130into Joseph'sH1004houseH5414, and gave[H8799] H4325them waterH7364, and they washed[H8799] H7272their feetH5414; and he gave[H8799] H2543their assesH4554provender.

²⁵ H3559And they made ready[H8686] H4503the presentH5704againstH3130JosephH935came[H8800] H6672at noonH8085: for they heard[H8804] H398that they should eat[H8799] H3899bread there.

²⁶ H3130And when JosephH935came[H8799] H1004homeH935, they brought[H8686] H4503him the presentH3027which was in their handH1004into the houseH7812, and bowed[H8691] H776themselves to him to the earth.

²⁷ H7592And he asked[H8799] H7965them of their welfareH559, and said[H8799] H1, Is your fatherH7965wellH2205, the old manH559of whom ye spake[H8804] H2416? Is he yet alive?

²⁸ H559And they answered[H8799] H5650, Thy servantH1our fatherH7965is in good healthH2416, he is yet aliveH6915. And they bowed down their heads[H8799] H7812, and made obeisance[H8691] .

²⁹ H5375And he lifted up[H8799] H5869his eyesH7200, and saw[H8799] H251his brotherH1144BenjaminH517, his mother'sH1121sonH559, and said[H8799] H6996, Is this your youngerH251brotherH559, of whom ye spake[H8804] H559unto me? And he said[H8799] H430, GodH2603be gracious[H8799] H1121unto thee, my son.

³⁰ H3130And JosephH4116made haste[H8762] H7356; for his bowelsH3648did yearn[H8738] H251upon his brotherH1245: and he sought[H8762] H1058where to weep[H8800] H935; and he entered[H8799] H2315into his chamberH1058, and wept[H8799]  there.

³¹ H7364And he washed[H8799] H6440his faceH3318, and went out[H8799] H662, and refrained[H8691] H559himself, and said[H8799] H7760, Set on[H8798] H3899bread.

³² H7760And they set on[H8799] H4713for him by himself, and for them by themselves, and for the EgyptiansH398, which did eat[H8802] H4713with him, by themselves: because the EgyptiansH3201might[H8799] H398not eat[H8800] H3899breadH5680with the HebrewsH8441; for that is an abominationH4714unto the Egyptians.

³³ H3427And they sat[H8799] H6440before himH1060, the firstbornH1062according to his birthrightH6810, and the youngestH6812according to his youthH582: and the menH8539marvelled[H8799] H376oneH7453at another.

³⁴ H5375And he took[H8799] H4864and sent messesH6440unto them from before himH1144: but Benjamin'sH4864messH2568was fiveH3027timesH7235so much as[H8799] H8354any of theirs. And they drank[H8799] H7937, and were merry[H8799]  with him.
