[1]Then JosephH3130 cameH935 H8799and toldH5046 H8686PharaohH6547, and saidH559 , H8799My fatherH1 and my brethrenH251, and their flocksH6629, and their herdsH1241, and all that they have, are come outH935 H8804of the landH776 of CanaanH3667; and, behold, they are in the landH776 of GoshenH1657. |
| [2]And he ordeynede fyue, the laste men of hise britheren, bifore the kyng, |
[2]And he tookH3947 H8804someH7097 of his brethrenH251, even fiveH2568 menH582, and presentedH3322 H8686them untoH6440 PharaohH6547. |
| [3]whiche he axide, What werk han ye? Thei answeriden, We thi seruauntis ben kepers of scheep, bothe we and oure faderis; |
[3]And PharaohH6547 saidH559 H8799unto his brethrenH251, What is your occupationH4639? And they saidH559 H8799unto PharaohH6547, Thy servantsH5650 are shepherdsH7462[H8802], H6629both we, and also our fathersH1. |
| [4]we camen in to thi lond to be pilgrymys, for noo gras is to the flockis of thi seruauntis; hungur wexith greuouse in the lond of Canaan, and we axen that thou comaunde vs thi seruauntis to be in the lond of Gessen. |
[4]They saidH559 H8799moreover unto PharaohH6547, For to sojournH1481 H8800in the landH776 are we comeH935 ; H8804for thy servantsH5650 have no pastureH4829 for their flocksH6629; for the famineH7458 is soreH3515 in the landH776 of CanaanH3667: now therefore, we pray thee, let thy servantsH5650 dwellH3427 H8799in the landH776 of GoshenH1657. |
| [5]And so the kyng seide to Joseph, Thi fadir and thi britheren camen to thee; |
[5]And PharaohH6547 spakeH559 H8799unto JosephH3130, sayingH559 , H8800Thy fatherH1 and thy brethrenH251 are comeH935 unto theeH8804: |
| [6]the lond of Egipt is in thi siyt, make thou hem to dwelle in the beste place, and yyue thou to hem the lond of Gessen; that if thou woost that witti men ben in hem, ordeyne thou hem maystris of my beestis. |
[6]The landH776 of EgyptH4714 is before theeH6440; in the bestH4315 of the landH776 makeH3427 thy fatherH1 and brethrenH251 to dwellH3427 ; H8685in the landH776 of GoshenH1657 let them dwellH3427 : H8799and if thou knowestH3045[H8804] H3426any menH582 of activityH2428 among them, then make themH7760 H8804rulersH8269 over my cattleH4735. |
| [7]After these thingis Joseph brouyte in his fader to the king, and settide him bifor the king, which blesside the king; |
[7]And JosephH3130 brought inH935 H8686JacobH3290 his fatherH1, and set himH5975 H8686beforeH6440 PharaohH6547: and JacobH3290 blessedH1288 H8762PharaohH6547. |
| [8]and he was axid of the king, Hou many ben the daies of the yeeris of thi lijf? |
[8]And PharaohH6547 saidH559 H8799unto JacobH3290, HowH4100 oldH2416 H3117art thouH8141? |
| [9]And he answeride, The daies of pilgrymage of my lijf, ben feewe and yuele, of an hundrid and thretti yeer, and tho `camen not til to the daies of my fadris, in whiche thei weren pilgryms. |
[9]And JacobH3290 saidH559 H8799unto PharaohH6547, The daysH3117 of the yearsH8141 of my pilgrimageH4033 are an hundredH3967 and thirtyH7970 yearsH8141: fewH4592 and evilH7451 have the daysH3117 of the yearsH8141 of my lifeH2416 been, and have not attainedH5381 H8689unto the daysH3117 of the yearsH8141 of the lifeH2416 of my fathersH1 in the daysH3117 of their pilgrimageH4033. |
| [10]And whanne he hadde blessid the kyng, he yede out. |
[10]And JacobH3290 blessedH1288 H8762PharaohH6547, and went outH3318 H8799from beforeH6440 PharaohH6547. |
| [11]Forsothe Joseph yaf to hise fadir and britheren possessioun in Egipt, in Ramasses, the beste soile of erthe, as Farao comaundide; |
[11]And JosephH3130 placedH3427 H8686his fatherH1 and his brethrenH251, and gaveH5414 H8799them a possessionH272 in the landH776 of EgyptH4714, in the bestH4315 of the landH776, in the landH776 of RamesesH7486, as PharaohH6547 had commandedH6680.[H8765] |
| [12]and he fedde hem, and al the hows of his fadir, and yaf metis to alle. |
[12]And JosephH3130 nourishedH3557 H8770his fatherH1, and his brethrenH251, and all his father'sH1 householdH1004, with breadH3899, accordingH6310 to their familiesH2945. |
| [13]For breed failide in al the world, and hungur oppresside the lond, moost of Egipt and of Canaan; |
[13]And there was no breadH3899 in all the landH776; for the famineH7458 was veryH3966 soreH3515, so that the landH776 of EgyptH4714 and all the landH776 of CanaanH3667 faintedH3856 H8799by reasonH6440 of the famineH7458. |
| [14]of whiche londis he gaderide al the money for the sillyng of wheete, and brouyte it in to the `tresorie of the kyng. |
[14]And JosephH3130 gathered upH3950 H8762all the moneyH3701 that was foundH4672 H8737in the landH776 of EgyptH4714, and in the landH776 of CanaanH3667, for the cornH7668 which they boughtH7666 : H8802and JosephH3130 broughtH935 H8686the moneyH3701 into Pharaoh'sH6547 houseH1004. |
| [15]And whanne prijs failide to the bieris, al Egipt cam to Joseph, and seide, Yyue thou `looues to vs; whi shulen we die bifore thee, while monei failith? |
[15]And when moneyH3701 failedH8552 H8799in the landH776 of EgyptH4714, and in the landH776 of CanaanH3667, all the EgyptiansH4714 cameH935 H8799unto JosephH3130, and saidH559 , H8800GiveH3051 H8798us breadH3899: for why should we dieH4191 H8799in thy presence? for the moneyH3701 failethH656.[H8804] |
| [16]To whiche he answeride, Brynge ye youre beestis, and Y schal yyue to you metis for tho, if ye han not prijs. |
[16]And JosephH3130 saidH559 , H8799GiveH3051 H8798your cattleH4735; and I will giveH5414 H8799you for your cattleH4735, if moneyH3701 failH656.[H8804] |
| [17]And whanne thei hadden brouyt tho, he yaf to hem metis for horsis, and scheep, and oxun, and assis; and he susteynede hem in that yeer for the chaungyng of beestis. |
[17]And they broughtH935 H8686their cattleH4735 unto JosephH3130: and JosephH3130 gaveH5414 H8799them breadH3899 in exchange for horsesH5483, and for the flocksH6629, and for the cattleH4735 of the herdsH1241, and for the assesH2543: and he fedH5095 H8762them with breadH3899 for all their cattleH4735 for that yearH8141. |
| [18]And thei camen in the secunde yeer, and seiden to hym, We helen not fro oure lord, that the while monei failith, also beestis failiden togidere, nether it is hid fro thee, that with out bodies and lond we han no thing; |
[18]When that yearH8141 was endedH8552 , H8799they cameH935 H8799unto him the secondH8145 yearH8141, and saidH559 H8799unto him, We will not hideH3582 H8762it from my lordH113, how that our moneyH3701 is spentH8552 ; H8804my lordH113 also hathH413 our herdsH4735 of cattleH929; there is not ought leftH7604 H8738in the sightH6440 of my lordH113, but our bodiesH1472, and our landsH127: |
| [19]whi therfor schulen we die, while thou seest? bothe we and oure lond schulen be thine, bie thou vs in to the kyngis seruage, and yyue thou seedis, lest the while the tiliere perischith, the lond be turned in to wildirnesse. |
[19]Wherefore shall we dieH4191 H8799before thine eyesH5869, both we and our landH127? buyH7069 H8798us and our landH127 for breadH3899, and we and our landH127 will be servantsH5650 unto PharaohH6547: and giveH5414 H8798us seedH2233, that we may liveH2421 , H8799and not dieH4191 , H8799that the landH127 be not desolateH3456.[H8799] |
| [20]Therfor Joseph bouyte al the lond of Egipt, while all men seelden her possessiouns, for the greetnesse of hungur; |
[20]And JosephH3130 boughtH7069 H8799all the landH127 of EgyptH4714 for PharaohH6547; for the EgyptiansH4714 soldH4376 H8804every manH376 his fieldH7704, because the famineH7458 prevailedH2388 H8804over them: so the landH776 became Pharaoh'sH6547. |
| [21]and he made it and alle puplis therof suget to Farao, fro the laste termes of Egipt til to the laste endis therof, |
[21]And as for the peopleH5971, he removedH5674 H8689them to citiesH5892 from one endH7097 of the bordersH1366 of EgyptH4714 even to the other end thereofH7097. |
| [22]outakun the lond of preestis, that was youun of the kyng to hem, to whiche preestis also metis weren youun of the comun bernys, and therfor thei weren not compellid to sille her possessiouns. |
[22]Only the landH127 of the priestsH3548 bought heH7069 H8804not; for the priestsH3548 had a portionH2706 assigned them of PharaohH6547, and did eatH398 H8804their portionH2706 which PharaohH6547 gaveH5414 H8804them: wherefore they soldH4376 H8804not their landsH127. |
| [23]Therfor Joseph seide to the puplis, Lo! as ye seen, Farao weldith bothe you and youre lond; take ye seedis, and `sowe ye feeldis, |
[23]Then JosephH3130 saidH559 H8799unto the peopleH5971, Behold, I have boughtH7069[H8804] H853you this dayH3117 and your landH127 for PharaohH6547: loH1887, here is seedH2233 for you, and ye shall sowH2232 H8804the landH127. |
| [24]that ye moun haue fruytis; ye schulen yyue the fifthe part to the kyng; Y suffre to you the foure residue partis in to seed and in to meetis, to you, and to youre fre children. |
[24]And it shall come to pass in the increaseH8393, that ye shall giveH5414 H8804the fifthH2549 part unto PharaohH6547, and fourH702 partsH3027 shall be your own, for seedH2233 of the fieldH7704, and for your foodH400, and for them of your householdsH1004, and for foodH398 H8800for your little onesH2945. |
| [25]Whiche answeriden, Oure helthe is in thin hond; oneli oure God biholde vs, and we schulen ioifuli serue the kyng. |
[25]And they saidH559 , H8799Thou hast saved our livesH2421 : H8689let us findH4672 H8799graceH2580 in the sightH5869 of my lordH113, and we will be Pharaoh'sH6547 servantsH5650. |
| [26]For that tyme til in to present dai, in al the lond of Egipt, the fyuethe part is paied to the kyngis, and it is maad as in to a lawe, with out the lond of preestis, that was fre fro this condicioun. |
[26]And JosephH3130 madeH7760 H8799it a lawH2706 over the landH127 of EgyptH4714 unto this dayH3117, that PharaohH6547 should have the fifthH2569 part; exceptH7535 the landH127 of the priestsH3548 only, which became not Pharaoh'sH6547. |
| [27]Therfor Israel dwellide in Egipt, that is, in the lond of Jessen, and weldide it; and he was encreessid and multiplied ful mych. |
[27]And IsraelH3478 dweltH3427 H8799in the landH776 of EgyptH4714, in the countryH776 of GoshenH1657; and they had possessionsH270 H8735therein, and grewH6509 , H8799and multipliedH7235 H8799exceedinglyH3966. |
| [28]And he lyuede therynne sixtene yeer; and alle the daies of his lijf weren maad of an hundrid and seuene and fourti yeer. |
[28]And JacobH3290 livedH2421 H8799in the landH776 of EgyptH4714 seventeenH6240 H7651yearsH8141: so the whole ageH2416 H3117of JacobH3290 was an hundredH3967 fortyH705 H8141and sevenH7651 yearsH8141. |
| [29]And whanne he seiy the dai of deeth nyye, he clepide his sone Joseph, and seide to hym, If Y haue founde grace in thi siyt; putte thin hond vndur myn hipe, and thou schal do merci and treuthe to me, that thou birie not me in Egipt; |
[29]And the timeH3117 drew nighH7126 H8799that IsraelH3478 must dieH4191 : H8800and he calledH7121 H8799his sonH1121 JosephH3130, and saidH559 H8799unto him, If now I have foundH4672 H8804graceH2580 in thy sightH5869, putH7760 , H8798I pray thee, thy handH3027 under my thighH3409, and dealH6213 H8804kindlyH2617 and trulyH571 with me; buryH6912 H8799me not, I pray thee, in EgyptH4714: |
| [30]but `Y schal slepe with my fadris, and take thou awey me fro this lond, and birie in the sepulcre of my grettere. To whom Joseph answeride, Y schal do that that thou comaundist. |
[30]But I will lieH7901 H8804with my fathersH1, and thou shalt carryH5375 H8804me out of EgyptH4714, and buryH6912 H8804me in their buryingplaceH6900. And he saidH559 , H8799I will doH6213 H8799as thou hast saidH1697. |
| [31]And Israel seide, Therfor swere thou to me; and whanne Joseph swoor, Israel turnede to the heed of the bed, and worschipide God. |
[31]And he saidH559 , H8799SwearH7650 H8734unto me. And he swareH7650 H8735unto him. And IsraelH3478 bowedH7812 H8691himself upon the bed'sH4296 headH7218. |
