1 А Јаков видећи да има жита у Мисиру, рече синовима својим: Шта гледате један на другог?
1 Now Jacob saw that there was grain in Egypt, and Jacob said to his sons, “Why do you look at one another?”
2 И рече: Ето чујем да у Мисиру има жита; идите онамо те нам купите отуда, да останемо живи и не помремо.
2 He said, “Behold, I have heard that there is grain in Egypt. Go down there, and buy for us from there, so that we may live, and not die.”
3 И десеторица браће Јосифове отидоше да купе жита у Мисиру.
3 Joseph’s ten brothers went down to buy grain from Egypt.
4 А Венијамина брата Јосифовог не пусти отац с браћом говорећи: Да га не би задесило како зло.
4 But Jacob didn’t send Benjamin, Joseph’s brother, with his brothers; for he said, “Lest perhaps harm happen to him.”
5 И дођоше синови Израиљеви да купе жита с осталима који долажаху; јер беше глад у земљи хананској.
5 The sons of Israel came to buy among those who came, for the famine was in the land of Canaan.
6 А Јосиф управљаше земљом, и продаваше жито свему народу по земљи. И браћа Јосифова дошавши поклонише му се лицем до земље.
6 Joseph was the governor over the land. It was he who sold to all the people of the land. Joseph’s brothers came, and bowed themselves down to him with their faces to the earth.
7 А Јосиф угледавши браћу позна их; али се учини да их не познаје, и оштро им проговори и рече: Одакле сте дошли? А они рекоше: Из земље хананске, да купимо хране.
7 Joseph saw his brothers, and he recognized them, but acted like a stranger to them, and spoke roughly with them. He said to them, “Where did you come from?” They said, “From the land of Canaan, to buy food.”
8 Јосиф дакле позна браћу своју; али они њега не познаше.
8 Joseph recognized his brothers, but they didn’t recognize him.
9 И опомену се Јосиф снова које је снио за њих; и рече им: Ви сте уходе; дошли сте да видите где је земља слаба.
9 Joseph remembered the dreams which he dreamed about them, and said to them, “You are spies! You have come to see the nakedness of the land.”
10 А они му рекоше: Нисмо, господару; него слуге твоје дођоше да купе хране.
10 They said to him, “No, my lord, but your servants have come to buy food.
11 Сви смо синови једног човека, поштени људи, никада нису слуге твоје биле уходе.
11 We are all one man’s sons; we are honest men. Your servants are not spies.”
12 А он им рече: Није истина, него сте дошли да видите где је земља слаба.
12 He said to them, “No, but you have come to see the nakedness of the land!”
13 А они рекоше: Нас је било дванаест браће, слуга твојих, синова једног човека у земљи хананској; и ено, најмлађи је данас код оца нашег, а једног нема више.
13 They said, “We, your servants, are twelve brothers, the sons of one man in the land of Canaan; and behold, the youngest is today with our father, and one is no more.”
14 А Јосиф им рече: Кажем ја да сте ви уходе.
14 Joseph said to them, “It is like I told you, saying, ‘You are spies!’
15 Него хоћу да се уверим овако: тако жив био Фараон, нећете изаћи одавде докле не дође овамо најмлађи брат ваш.
15 By this you shall be tested. By the life of Pharaoh, you shall not go out from here, unless your youngest brother comes here.
16 Пошљите једног између себе нека доведе брата вашег, а ви ћете остати овде у тамници, па ћу видети је ли истина шта говорите; иначе сте уходе, тако жив био Фараон.
16 Send one of you, and let him get your brother, and you shall be bound, that your words may be tested, whether there is truth in you, or else by the life of Pharaoh surely you are spies.”
17 И затвори их у тамницу на три дана.
17 He put them all together into custody for three days.
18 А трећи дан рече им Јосиф: Ако сте ради животу, ово учините, јер се ја Бога бојим:
18 Joseph said to them the third day, “Do this, and live, for I fear God.
19 Ако сте поштени људи, један брат између вас нека остане у тамници, а ви идите и однесите жита колико треба породицама вашим.
19 If you are honest men, then let one of your brothers be bound in your prison; but you go, carry grain for the famine of your houses.
20 Па онда доведите к мени најмлађег брата свог да се посведоче речи ваше и да не изгинете. И они учинише тако.
20 Bring your youngest brother to me; so will your words be verified, and you won’t die.” They did so.
21 И рекоше један другом: Доиста се огрешисмо о брата свог, јер видесмо муку душе његове кад нам се мољаше, па га се оглушисмо; зато дође на нас ова мука.
21 They said to one another, “We are certainly guilty concerning our brother, in that we saw the distress of his soul, when he begged us, and we wouldn’t listen. Therefore this distress has come upon us.”
22 А Рувим одговори им говорећи: Нисам ли вам говорио: Немојте се грешити о дете? Али ме не послушасте; и зато се ево тражи од нас крв његова.
22 Reuben answered them, saying, “Didn’t I tell you, saying, ‘Don’t sin against the child,’ and you wouldn’t listen? Therefore also, behold, his blood is required.”
23 А они не знаху да их Јосиф разуме, јер се с њим разговараху преко тумача.
23 They didn’t know that Joseph understood them; for there was an interpreter between them.
24 А Јосиф окрете се од њих, и заплака се. Потом се опет окрете к њима, и проговори с њима, и узевши између њих Симеуна веза га пред њима.
24 He turned himself away from them, and wept. Then he returned to them, and spoke to them, and took Simeon from among them, and bound him before their eyes.
25 И заповеди Јосиф да им наспу вреће жита, па и новце шта је који дао да метну свакоме у врећу, и да им даду брашњенице на пут. И тако би учињено.
25 Then Joseph gave a command to fill their bags with grain, and to restore each man’s money into his sack, and to give them food for the way. So it was done to them.
26 И натоваривши жито своје на магарце своје отидоше.
26 They loaded their donkeys with their grain, and departed from there.
27 А један од њих отворив своју врећу да нахрани магарца свог у једној гостионици, виде новце своје озго у врећи.
27 As one of them opened his sack to give his donkey food in the lodging place, he saw his money. Behold, it was in the mouth of his sack.
28 И рече браћи својој: Ја добих натраг новце своје, ево их у мојој врећи. И задрхта срце у њима и уплашише се говорећи један другом: Шта нам то учини Бог?
28 He said to his brothers, “My money is restored! Behold, it is in my sack!” Their hearts failed them, and they turned trembling to one another, saying, “What is this that God has done to us?”
29 И дошавши к Јакову оцу свом у земљу хананску, приповедише му све што им се догоди, говорећи:
29 They came to Jacob their father, to the land of Canaan, and told him all that had happened to them, saying,
30 Оштро говораше с нама човек, који заповеда у оној земљи, и дочека нас као уходе.
30 “The man, the lord of the land, spoke roughly with us, and took us for spies of the country.
31 А кад му рекосмо: Ми смо поштени људи, никад нисмо били уходе;
31 We said to him, ‘We are honest men. We are no spies.
32 било нас је дванаест браће, синова оца нашег; једног већ нема, а најмлађи је данас код оца нашег у земљи хананској;
32 We are twelve brothers, sons of our father; one is no more, and the youngest is today with our father in the land of Canaan.’
33 рече нам човек, који заповеда у оној земљи: Овако ћу дознати јесте ли поштени људи: брата једног између себе оставите код мене, а шта вам треба за породице ваше глади ради, узмите и идите.
33 The man, the lord of the land, said to us, ‘By this I will know that you are honest men: leave one of your brothers with me, and take grain for the famine of your houses, and go your way.
34 После доведите к мени брата свог најмлађег, да се уверим да нисте уходе него поштени људи; брата ћу вам вратити, и моћи ћете трговати по овој земљи.
34 Bring your youngest brother to me. Then I will know that you are not spies, but that you are honest men. So I will deliver your brother to you, and you shall trade in the land.’”
35 А кад изручиваху вреће своје, гле, свакоме у врећи беху у завежљају новци његови; и видевши завежљаје новаца својих уплашише се и они и отац им.
35 As they emptied their sacks, behold, each man’s bundle of money was in his sack. When they and their father saw their bundles of money, they were afraid.
36 И рече им Јаков отац њихов: Потрсте ми децу; Јосифа нема, Симеуна нема, па хоћете и Венијамина да узмете; све се скупило на ме.
36 Jacob, their father, said to them, “You have bereaved me of my children! Joseph is no more, Simeon is no more, and you want to take Benjamin away. All these things are against me.”
37 А Рувим проговори и рече оцу свом: Два сина моја убиј, ако ти га не доведем натраг; дај га у моје руке, и ја ћу ти га опет довести.
37 Reuben spoke to his father, saying, “Kill my two sons, if I don’t bring him to you. Entrust him to my care, and I will bring him to you again.”
38 А он рече: Неће ићи син мој с вама, јер је брат његов умро и он оста сам, па ако би га задесило како зло на путу на који ћете ићи, свалили би сте ме стара с тугом у гроб.
38 He said, “My son shall not go down with you; for his brother is dead, and he only is left. If harm happens to him along the way in which you go, then you will bring down my gray hairs with sorrow to Sheol.”

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
… brethren who detained her for ten days; Jeroboam also, who received the ten sceptres (tribes), and the ten courts of the tabernacle, and the columns of ten cubits [high], and the ten sons of Jacob who were at first sent into Egypt to buy corn, and the ten apostles to whom the Lord appeared after His resurrection,--Thomas being absent,--represented, according …
