41：33所以，法老当拣选一个有聪明有智慧的人，派他治理埃及地。
Now therefore let Pharaoh look out a man discreet and wise； and set him over the land of Egypt。
41：34法老当这样行，又派官员管理这地。当七个丰年的时候，征收埃及地的五分之一，
Let Pharaoh do this； and let him appoint officers over the land； and take up the fifth part of the land of Egypt in the seven plenteous years。
41：35叫他们把将来丰年一切的粮食聚敛起来，积蓄五谷，收存在各城里作食物，归于法老的手下。
And let them gather all the food of those good years that e； and lay up corn under the hand of Pharaoh； and let them keep food in the cities。
41：36所积蓄的粮食可以防备埃及地将来的七个荒年，免得这地被饥荒所灭。
And that food shall be for store to the land against the seven years of famine； which shall be in the land of Egypt； that the land perish not through the famine。
41：37法老和他一切臣仆都以这事为妙。
And the thing was good in the eyes of Pharaoh； and in the eyes of all his servants。
41：38法老对臣仆说，像这样的人，有神的灵在他里头，我们岂能找得着呢，
And Pharaoh said unto his servants； Can we find such a one as this is； a man in whom the Spirit of God is？
41：39法老对约瑟说，神既将这事都指示你，可见没有人像你这样有聪明有智慧。
And Pharaoh said unto Joseph； Forasmuch as God hath shewed thee all this； there is none so discreet and wise as thou art：
41：40你可以掌管我的家。我的民都必听从你的话。惟独在宝座上我比你大。
Thou shalt be over my house； and according unto thy word shall all my people be ruled： only in the throne will I be greater than thou。
41：41法老又对约瑟说，我派你治理埃及全地。
And Pharaoh said unto Joseph； See； I have set thee over all the land of Egypt。
41：42法老就摘下手上打印的戒指，戴在约瑟的手上，给他穿上细麻衣，把金链戴在他的颈项上，
And Pharaoh took off his ring from his hand； and put it upon Joseph's hand； and arrayed him in vestures of fine linen； and put a gold chain about his neck；
41：43又叫约瑟坐他的副车，喝道的在前呼叫说，跪下。这样，法老派他治理埃及全地。
And he made him to ride in the second chariot which he had； and they cried before him； Bow the knee： and he made him ruler over all the land of Egypt。
41：44法老对约瑟说，我是法老，在埃及全地，若没有你的命令，不许人擅自办事（原文作动手动脚）。
And Pharaoh said unto Joseph； I am Pharaoh； and without thee shall no man lift up his hand or foot in all the land of Egypt。
41：45法老赐名给约瑟，叫撒发那忒巴内亚，又将安城的祭司波提非拉的女儿亚西纳给他为妻。约瑟就出去巡行埃及地。
And Pharaoh called Joseph's name Zaphnathpaaneah； and he gave him to wife Asenath the daughter of Potipherah priest of On。 And Joseph went out over all the land of Egypt。
41：46约瑟见埃及王法老的时候年三十岁。他从法老面前出去，遍行埃及全地。
And Joseph was thirty years old when he stood before Pharaoh king of Egypt。 And Joseph went out from the presence of Pharaoh； and went throughout all the land of Egypt。
41：47七个丰年之内，地的出产极丰极盛（原文作一把一把的），
And in the seven plenteous years the earth brought forth by handfuls。
41：48约瑟聚敛埃及地七个丰年一切的粮食，把粮食积存在各城里。各城周围田地的粮食都积存在本城里。
And he gathered up all the food of the seven years； which were in the land of Egypt； and laid up the food in the cities： the food of the field； which was round about every city； laid he up in the same。
41：49约瑟积蓄五谷甚多，如同海边的沙，无法计算，因为谷不可胜数。
And Joseph gathered corn as the sand of the sea； very much； until he left numbering； for it was without number。
41：50荒年未到以前，安城的祭司波提非拉的女儿亚西纳给约瑟生了两个儿子。
And unto Joseph were born two sons before the years of famine came； which Asenath the daughter of Potipherah priest of On bare unto him。
41：51约瑟给长子起名叫玛拿西（就是使之忘了的意思），因为他说，神使我忘了一切的困苦和我父的全家。
And Joseph called the name of the firstborn Manasseh： For God； said he； hath made me forget all my toil； and all my father's house。
41：52他给次子起名叫以法莲（就是使之昌盛的意思），因为他说，神使我在受苦的地方昌盛。
And the name of the second called he Ephraim： For God hath caused me to be fruitful in the land of my affliction。
41：53埃及地的七个丰年一完，
And the seven years of plenteousness； that was in the land of Egypt； were ended。
41：54七个荒年就来了。正如约瑟所说的，各地都有饥荒。惟独埃及全地有粮食。
And the seven years of dearth began to e； according as Joseph had said： and the dearth was in all lands； but in all the land of Egypt there was bread。
41：55及至埃及全地有了饥荒，众民向法老哀求粮食，法老对他们说，你们往约瑟那里去，凡他所说的，你们都要作。
And when all the land of Egypt was famished； the people cried to Pharaoh for bread： and Pharaoh said unto all the Egyptians； Go unto Joseph； what he saith to you； do。
41：56当时饥荒遍满天下，约瑟开了各处的仓，粜粮给埃及人。在埃及地饥荒甚大。
And the famine was over all the face of the earth： And Joseph opened all the storehouses； and sold unto the Egyptians； and the famine waxed sore in the land of Egypt。
41：57各地的人都往埃及去，到约瑟那里籴粮，因为天下的饥荒甚大。
And all countries came into Egypt to Joseph for to buy corn； because that the famine was so sore in all lands。
旧约 创世记（Genesis） 第 42 章 （ 本篇共有 50 章 ） 7上一章 下一章8 目录
42：1雅各见埃及有粮，就对儿子们说，你们为什么彼此观望呢。
Now when Jacob saw that there was corn in Egypt； Jacob said unto his sons； Why do ye look one upon another？
42：2我听见埃及有粮，你们可以下去，从那里为我们籴些来，使我们可以存活，不至于死。
And he said； Behold； I have heard that there is corn in Egypt： get you down thither； and buy for us from thence； that we may live； and not die。
42：3于是，约瑟的十个哥哥都下埃及籴粮去了。
And Joseph's ten brethren went down to buy corn in Egypt。
42：4但约瑟的兄弟便雅悯，雅各没有打发他和哥哥们同去，因为雅各说，恐怕他遭害。
But Benjamin； Joseph's brother； Jacob sent not with his brethren； for he said； Lest peradventure mischief befall him。
42：5来籴粮的人中有以色列的儿子们，因为迦南地也有饥荒。
And the sons of Israel came to buy corn among those that came： for the famine was in the land of Canaan。
42：6当时治理埃及地的是约瑟。粜粮给那地众民的就是他。约瑟的哥哥们来了，脸伏于地，向他下拜。
And Joseph was the governor over the land； and he it was that sold to all the people of the land： and Joseph's brethren came； and bowed down themselves before him with their faces to the earth。
42：7约瑟看见他哥哥们，就认得他们，却装作生人，向他们说些严厉话，问他们说，你们从哪里来。他们说，我们从迦南地来籴粮。
And Joseph saw his brethren； and he knew them； but made himself strange unto them； and spake roughly unto them； and he said unto them； Whence e ye？ And they said； From the land of Canaan to buy food。
42：8约瑟认得他哥哥们，他们却不认得他。
And Joseph knew his brethren； but they knew not him。
42：9约瑟想起从前所作的那两个梦，就对他们说，你们是奸细，来窥探这地的虚实。
And Joseph remembered the dreams which he dreamed of them； and said unto them； Ye are spies； to see the nakedness of the land ye are e。
42：10他们对他说，我主阿，不是的。仆人们是籴粮来的。
And they said unto him； Nay； my lord； but to buy food are thy servants e。
42：11我们都是一个人的儿子，是诚实人。仆人们并不是奸细。
We are all one man's sons； we are true men； thy servants are no spies。
42：12约瑟说，不然，你们必是窥探这地的虚实来的。
And he said unto them； Nay； but to see the nakedness of the land ye are e。
42：13他们说，仆人们本是弟兄十二人，是迦南地一个人的儿子，顶小的现今在我们的父亲那里，有一个没有了。
And they said； Thy servants are twelve brethren； the sons of one man in the land of Canaan； and； behold； the youngest is this day with our father； and one is not。
42：14约瑟说，我才说你们是奸细，这话实在不错。
And Joseph said unto them； That is it that I spake unto you； saying； Ye are spies：
42：15我指着法老的性命起誓，若是你们的小兄弟不到这里来，你们就不得出这地方，从此就可以把你们证验出来了。
Hereby ye shall be proved： By the life of Pharaoh ye shall not go forth hence； except your youngest brother e hither。
42：16须要打发你们中间一个人去，把你们的兄弟带来。至于你们，都要囚在这里，好证验你们的话涉不真，若不真，我指着法老的性命起誓，你们一定是奸细。
Send one of you； and let him fetch your brother； and ye shall be kept in prison； that your words may be proved； whether there be any truth in you： or else by the life of Pharaoh surely ye are spies。
42：17于是约瑟把他们都下在监里三天。
And he put them all together into ward three days。
42：18到了第三天，约瑟对他们说，我是敬畏神的。你们照我的话行就可以存活。
And Joseph said unto them the third day； This do； and live； for I fear God：
42：19你们如果是诚实人，可以留你们中间的一个人囚在监里，但你们可以带着粮食回去，救你们家里的饥荒。
If ye be true men； let one of your brethren be bound in the house of your prison： go ye； carry corn for the famine of your houses：
42：20把你们的小兄弟带到我这里来，如此，你们的话便有证据，你们也不至于死。他们就照样而行。
But bring your youngest brother unto me； so shall your words be verified； and ye shall not die。 And they did so。
42：21他们彼此说，我们在兄弟身上实在有罪。他哀求我们的时候，我们见他心里的愁苦，却不肯听，所以这场苦难临到我们身上。
And they said one to another； We are verily guilty concerning our brother； in that we saw the anguish of his soul； when he besought us； and we would not hear； therefore is this
