Chapter 43 And the famine was sore in the
land, and it came to pass when they had

00:05.700 --> 00:09.480
eaten up the corn which they had brought
out of Egypt, their father said unto them,

00:09.680 --> 00:13.060
Go again, buy us a little food.

00:13.440 --> 00:17.260
And Judah spake unto him, saying,
The man did solemnly protest unto us,

00:17.300 --> 00:20.600
saying, Ye shall not see my face,
except your brother be with you.

00:21.260 --> 00:25.000
If thou wilt send our brother with us,
we will go down, and buy thee food.

00:25.580 --> 00:28.580
But if thou wilt not send him,
we will not go down.

00:28.580 --> 00:33.760
For the man said unto us, Ye shall not see
my face, except your brother be with you.

00:34.060 --> 00:39.200
And Israel said, Wherefore dealt ye so ill
with me?

00:39.920 --> 00:43.640
As to tell the man whether ye had yet a
brother?

00:44.060 --> 00:48.620
And they said, The man asketh straightly
of our state, and of our kindred,

00:48.900 --> 00:51.140
saying, Is your father yet alive?

00:51.540 --> 00:52.700
Have ye another brother?

00:53.040 --> 00:57.640
And we told him, according to the tenor of
these words, Could we certainly know that

00:57.640 --> 00:59.860
he would say, Bring your brother down?

01:00.000 --> 01:04.760
And Judah said unto Israel his father,
Send the lad with me, and we will arise

01:04.760 --> 01:09.500
and go, that we may live and not die,
both we and thou, and also our little

01:09.500 --> 01:09.780
ones.

01:10.540 --> 01:12.120
I will be surety for him.

01:12.680 --> 01:15.020
Of my hand shalt thou require him.

01:15.660 --> 01:20.660
If I bring him not unto thee, and set him
before thee, then let me bear the blame

01:20.660 --> 01:21.180
for ever.

01:22.080 --> 01:26.120
For except we had lingered, surely now we
had returned this second time.

01:26.120 --> 01:32.100
And their father Israel said unto them,
If it must be so, now do this.

01:33.640 --> 01:40.080
Take of the best fruits in the land in
your vessels, and carry down the man a

01:40.080 --> 01:47.440
present, a little balm, and a little
honey, spices, and myrrh, nuts,

01:48.180 --> 01:48.700
and almonds.

01:49.880 --> 01:56.400
And take double money in your hand,
and the money that was brought again in

01:56.400 --> 02:02.200
the mouth of your sacks, carry it again in
your hand.

02:04.020 --> 02:06.440
Peradventure it was an oversight.

02:08.240 --> 02:15.260
Take also your brother, and arise,
go again unto the man.

02:16.960 --> 02:24.980
And God Almighty give you mercy before the
man, that he may send away your other

02:24.980 --> 02:27.120
brother and Benjamin.

02:30.700 --> 02:35.980
If I be bereaved of my children,
I am bereaved.

02:36.440 --> 02:39.840
And the men took that present,
and they took double money in their hand,

02:39.940 --> 02:44.180
and Benjamin, and rose up, and went down
to Egypt, and stood before Joseph.

02:44.440 --> 02:48.180
And when Joseph saw Benjamin with them,
he said to the ruler of his house,

02:48.180 --> 02:52.100
Bring these men home, and slay,
and make ready, for these men shall dine

02:52.100 --> 02:52.780
with me at noon.

02:53.320 --> 02:56.840
And the man did as Joseph bade,
and the man brought the men into Joseph's

02:56.840 --> 02:57.120
house.

02:57.500 --> 03:00.960
And the men were afraid, because they were
brought into Joseph's house, and they

03:00.960 --> 03:04.980
said, Because of the money that was
returned in our sacks at the first time

03:04.980 --> 03:09.900
are we brought in, that he may seek
occasion against us, and fall upon us,

03:10.220 --> 03:12.680
and take us for bondmen, and our asses.

03:12.940 --> 03:16.280
And they came near to the steward of
Joseph's house, and they communed with him

03:16.280 --> 03:21.340
at the door of the house, and said,
O sir, we came indeed down at the first

03:21.340 --> 03:26.640
time to buy food, and it came to pass,
when we came to the inn, that we opened

03:26.640 --> 03:33.060
our sacks, and behold, every man's money
was in the mouth of his sack, our money in

03:33.060 --> 03:38.700
full weight, and we have brought it again
in our hand, and other money have we

03:38.700 --> 03:40.880
brought down in our hands to buy food.

03:41.520 --> 03:44.200
We cannot tell who put our money in our
sacks.

03:44.360 --> 03:47.060
And he said, Peace be to you, fear not.

03:47.580 --> 03:51.860
Your God and the God of your father hath
given you treasure in your sacks.

03:52.360 --> 03:53.440
I had your money.

03:53.980 --> 03:55.600
And he brought Simeon out unto them.

03:56.020 --> 03:59.860
And the man brought the men into Joseph's
house, and gave them water, and they

03:59.860 --> 04:00.560
washed their feet.

04:00.920 --> 04:02.480
And he gave their asses provender.

04:02.900 --> 04:06.680
And they made ready the present,
against Joseph came at noon, for they

04:06.680 --> 04:08.060
heard that they should eat bread there.

04:08.560 --> 04:12.140
And when Joseph came home, they brought
him the present which was in their hand

04:12.140 --> 04:15.200
into the house, and bowed themselves to
him to the earth.

04:15.580 --> 04:18.640
And he asked them of their welfare,
and said, Is your father well,

04:19.160 --> 04:21.080
the old man of whom ye spake?

04:21.580 --> 04:22.940
Is he yet alive?

04:23.180 --> 04:27.000
And they answered, Thy servant,
our father, is in good health.

04:27.220 --> 04:28.260
He is yet alive.

04:28.360 --> 04:30.780
And they bowed down their heads,
and made obeisance.

04:31.180 --> 04:34.460
And he lifted up his eyes, and saw his
brother Benjamin, his mother's son,

04:34.540 --> 04:38.000
and said, Is this your younger brother,
of whom ye spake unto me?

04:38.220 --> 04:40.760
And he said, God be gracious unto thee,
my son.

04:40.760 --> 04:45.180
And Joseph made haste, for his bowels did
yearn upon his brother, and he sought

04:45.180 --> 04:48.020
where to weep, and he entered into his
chamber and wept there.

04:48.580 --> 04:51.980
And he washed his face, and went out,
and refrained himself, and said,

04:52.140 --> 04:52.740
Set on bread.

04:53.040 --> 04:57.060
And they set on for him by himself,
and for them by themselves, and for the

04:57.060 --> 05:01.120
Egyptians which did eat with him by
themselves, because the Egyptians might

05:01.120 --> 05:04.640
not eat bread with the Hebrews,
for that is an abomination unto the

05:04.640 --> 05:04.960
Egyptians.

05:05.560 --> 05:09.220
And they sat before him, the firstborn
according to his birthright, and the

05:09.220 --> 05:10.660
youngest according to his youth.

05:10.860 --> 05:12.440
And the men marveled one at another.

05:12.820 --> 05:15.760
And he took and sent messes unto them from
before him.

05:16.080 --> 05:19.160
But Benjamin's mess was five times so much
as any of theirs.

05:19.620 --> 05:21.560
And they drank, and were merry with him.
