Genesis 45

DOUAI-RHEIMS	Peshitta
1 Joseph could no longer refrain himself before many that stood by: whereupon he commanded that all should go out, and no stranger be present at their knowing one another.	1 ܘܠܐ ܐܫܟܚ ܝܘܣܦ ܠܡܚܡܣܢܘ ܡܢ ܟܠ ܕܩܝܡܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܩܕܡܘܗܝ . ܘܐܡܪ ܐܦܩܘ ܠܟܠܢܫ ܡܢ ܠܘܬܝ. ܘܠܐ ܩܘܝ ܐܢܫ ܠܘܬܗ. ܟܕ ܐܬܓܠܝ ܝܘܣܦ ܠܐܚ̈ܘܗܝ.
2 And he lifted up his voice with weeping, which the Egyptians and all the house of Pharao heard.	2 ܘܐܪܝܡ ܩܠܗ ܒܒܟܬܐ. ܘܫܡܥܘ ܡܨܪ̈ܝܐ. ܘܐܫܬܡܥ ܒܝܬ ܦܪܥܘܢ.
3 And he said to his brethren: I am Joseph: is my father yet living? His brethren could no answer him, being struck with exceeding great fear.	3 ܘܐܡ̣ܪ ܝܘܣܦ ܠܐܚ̈ܘܗܝ. ܐܢܐ ܐܢܐ ܝܘܣܦ ܐܚܘܟܘܢ. ܥܕܟܝܠ ܐܒܝ ܚܝ ܗܘ . ܘܠܐ ܐܫܟܚܘ ܐܚ̈ܘܗܝ ܠܡܬܠ ܠܗ ܦܬܓܡܐ. ܡܛܠ ܕܕܚܠܘ ܡܢ ܩܕܡܘܗܝ.
4 And he said mildly to them: Come nearer to me. And when they were come near him, he said: I am Joseph, your brother, whom you sold into Egypt.	4 ܘܐܡ̣ܪ ܝܘܣܦ ܠܐܚ̈ܘܗܝ. ܩܪܘܒܘ ܠܘܬܝ. ܘܩܪܒܘ ܠܘܬܗ . ܘܐܡ̣ܪ ܠܗܘܢ . ܐܢܐ ܐܢܐ ܝܘܣܦ ܐܚܘܟܘܢ ܕܙܒܢܬܘܢܢܝ ܠܡܨܪ̈ܝܐ.
5 Be not afraid, and let it not seem to you a hard case that you sold me into these countries: for God sent me before you into Egypt for your preservation.	5 ܘܗܫܐ ܠܐ ܬܟܪܐ ܠܟܘܢ. ܘܠܐ ܢܬܐܒܫ ܒܥܝܢ̈ܝܟܘܢ ܕܙܒܢܬܘܢܢܝ ܠܗܪܟܐ. ܡܛܠ ܕܠܬܘܪܣܝܐ ܗܘ ܫܕܪܢܝ ܐܠܗܐ ܩܕܡܝܟܘܢ.
6 For it is two years since the famine began to be upon the land, and five years more remain, wherein there can be neither ploughing nor reaping.	6 ܡܛܠ ܕܗܐ ܬܪ̈ܬܝܢ ܫ̈ܢܝܢ ܟܦܢܐ ܒܓܘܗ̇ ܕܐܪܥܐ. ܘܬܘܒ ܚܡܫ ܫܢܝ̈ܢ ܕܠܝܬ ܕܙܪܥ̇ ܘܕܚ̇ܨܕ .
7 And God sent me before, that you may be preserved upon the earth, and may have food to live.	7 ܘܫܕܪܢܝ ܐܠܗܐ ܩܕܡܝܟܘܢ ܠܡܣܡ ܠܟܘܢ ܫܪܟܢܐ. ܘܠܡܚܝܘ ܠܟܘܢ ܡܫܘܙܒܘܬܐ ܪܒܬܐ ܒܐܪܥܐ.
8 Not by your counsel was I sent hither, but by the will of God: who hath made me as it were a father to Pharao, and lord of his whold house, and governor in all the land of Egypt.	8 ܘܗܫܐ ܠܐ ܗܘ̣ܐ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܫܕܪܬܘܢܢܝ ܠܗܪܟܐ. ܐܠܐ ܐܠܗܐ. ܘܥܒܕܢܝ ܐܒܐ ܠܦܪܥܘܢ. ܘܡܪܐ ܥܠ ܟܠܗ ܒܝܬܗ. ܘܫܠܝܛܐ ܒܟܠܗ̇ ܐܪܥܐ ܕܡܨܪܝܢ.
9 Make haste, and go ye up to my father, and say to him: Thus saith thy son Joseph: God hath made me lord of the whole land of Egypt: come down to me, linger not.	9 ܒܥܓܠ ܣܩܘ ܠܘܬ ܐܒܝ ܘܐܡܪܘ ܠܗ. ܗܟܢܐ ܐܡ̇ܪ ܒܪܟ ܝܘܣܦ. ܥܒܕܢܝ ܐܠܗܐ ܡܪܐ ܥܠ ܟܠܗ̇ ܡܨܪܝܢ. ܚܘܬ ܠܘܬܝ ܘܠܐ ܬܫܬܘܚܪ.
10 And thou shalt dwell in the land of Gessen: and thou shalt be near me, thou and thy sons, and thy son's sons, thy sheep, and thy gerds, and all things that thou hast.	10 ܘܬܒ ܒܐܪܥܐ ܕܓܫܢ. ܘܗܘ̣ܝܬ ܩܪܝܒ ܠܝ ܐܢܬ ܘܒ̈ܢܝܟ ܘܒ̈ܢܝ ܒܝܬܟ. ܘܥܢܟ ܘܬܘܪ̈ܝܟ ܘܟܠ ܕܐܝܬ ܠܟ.
11 And there I will feed thee, (for there are yet five years of famine remaining,) lest both thou perish, and thy house, and all things that thou hast.	11 ܘܐܬܪܣܝܟܘܢ ܬܡܢ ܡܛܠ ܕܬܘܒ ܚܡܫ ܫ̈ܢܝܢ ܩ̇ܝܡ ܟܦܢܐ. ܕܠܡܐ ܬܐܒܕ ܐܢܬ ܘܒܝܬܟ ܘܟܠ ܕܐܝܬ ܠܟ.
12 Behold, your eyes, and the eyes of my brother Benjamin see that it is my mouth that speaketh to you.	12 ܘܗܐ ܥܝܢ̈ܝܟܘܢ ܚ̈ܙܝܢ ܘܥܝܢ̈ܘܗܝ ܕܐܚܝ ܒܢܝܡܝܢ. ܕܦܘܡܝ ܡܡܠܠ ܥܡܟܘܢ.
13 You shall tell my father of all my glory, and all things that you have seen in Egypt: make haste and bring him to me.	13 ܘܚܘܘ ܠܐܒܝ ܟܠܗ ܐܝܩܪܝ ܕܒܡܨܪܝܢ. ܘܟܠ ܕܚܙܝܬܘܢ. ܘܣܪܗܒܘ ܐܚܬܘ ܠܐܒܝ ܠܗܪܟܐ.
14 And falling upon the neck of his brother Benjamin, he embraced him and wept: and Benjamin in like manner wept also on his neck.	14 ܘܢܦ̣ܠ ܥܠ ܨܘܪܗ ܕܒܢܝܡܝܢ ܐܚܘܗܝ ܘܒܟ̣ܐ. ܘܒܢܝܡܝܢ ܒܟ̣ܐ ܥܠ ܨܘܪܗ.
15 And Joseph kissed all his brethren, and wept upon every one of them: after which they were emboldened to ,peak to him.	15 ܘܢܫ̇ܩ ܠܟܠܗܘܢ ܐܚ̈ܘܗܝ ܘܒܟ̣ܐ ܥܠܝܗܘܢ. ܘܒܬܪܟܢ ܡܠܠܘ ܐ̈ܚܘܗܝ ܥܡܗ.
16 And it was heard, and the fame was abroad in the king's court: The brethren of Joseph are come: and Pharao with all his family was glad.	16 ܘܩܠܐ ܐܫܬܡܥ ܒܝܬ ܦܪܥܘܢ ܕܐܡܪܝܢ. ܐܬܘ ܐ̈ܚܘܗܝ ܕܝܘܣܦ. ܘܫ̣ܦܪ ܦܬܓܡܐ ܒܥܝܢ̈ܝ ܦܪܥܘܢ ܘܒܥܝܢ̈ܝ ܥܒ̣̈ܕܘܗܝ.
17 And he spoke to Joseph that he should give orders to his brethren, saying : Load your beasts, and go into the land of Chanaan.	17 ܘܐܡ̣ܪ ܦܪܥܘܢ ܠܝܘܣܦ. ܐܡ̣ܪ ܠܐ̈ܚܝܟ ܗܟܢܐ ܥܒܕܘ. ܐܛܥܢܘ ܒܥܝܪܟܘܢ ܥܒܘܪܐ . ܘܙܠܘ ܐܘܒܠܘ ܠܐܪܥܐ ܕܟܢܥܢ.
18 And bring away from thence your father and kindred, and come to me: and I will give you all the good things of Egypt, that you may eat the marrow of the land.	18 ܘܕܒ̣ܪܘ ܠܐܒܘܟܘܢ ܘܠܐܢܫ̈ܝ ܒܬ̈ܝܟܘܢ ܘܐܝܬܘ ܠܘܬܝ. ܘܐܬܠ ܠܟܘܢ ܛܘܒܗ̇ ܕܐܪܥܐ ܕܡܨܪܝܢ. ܘܐܟܘܠܘ ܫܘܡܢܗ̇ ܕܐܪܥܐ.
19 Give orders also that they take wagons out of the land of Egypt, for/ the carriage of their children and their wives: and say: Take up your father, and make haste to come with all speed:	19 ܘܐܢܬ ܗܐ ܡܫܠܛ ܐܢܬ. ܐܡ̣ܪ ܠܐ̈ܚܝܟ ܗܟܢܐ ܥܒܕܘ. ܕܒܪܘ ܠܟܘܢ ܡܢ ܐܪܥܐ ܕܡܨܪܝܢ ܥ̈ܓܠܬܐ ܠܢܫ̈ܝܟܘܢ ܘܠܝܩܪܬܟܘܢ. ܘܫܩܘܠܘ ܠܐܒܘܟܘܢ ܘܬܘ.
20 And leave nothing of your household stuff: for all the riches of Egypt shall be yours.	20 ܘܥܝܢ̈ܝܟܘܢ ܠܐ ܢܚܘܣܢ ܥܠ ܡܐ̈ܢܝܟܘܢ. ܡܛܠ ܕܛܘܒܐ ܕܟܠܗ̇ ܐܪܥܐ ܕܡܨܪܝܢ ܕܝܠܟܘܢ ܗܘ.
21 And the sons of Israel did as they were bid. And Joseph gave them wagons according to Pharao's commandment: and provisions for the way.	21 ܘܥܒܕܘ ܗܟܢܐ ܒܢ̈ܝ ܐܝܣܪܝܠ. ܘܝܗ̣ܒ ܠܗܘܢ ܝܘܣܦ ܥ̈ܓܠܬܐ ܥܠ ܡܠܬ ܦܘܡܗ ܕܦܪܥܘܢ. ܘܝܗ̣ܒ ܠܗܘܢ ܙܘ̈ܕܐ ܠܐܘܪܚܐ.
22 He ordered also to be brought out for every one of them two robes: but to Benjamin he gave three hundred pieces of silver with Ave robes of the best:	22 ܠܟܠܗܘܢ ܘܝܗ̣ܒ ܠܟܠ ܓܒܪ ܙܘܓܐ ܕܢܚ̈ܬܐ. ܘܠܒܢܝܡܝܢ ܝܗ̣ܒ ܬܠܬܡܐܐ ܕܟܣܦܐ. ܘܚܡܫܐ ܙܘ̈ܓܝܢ ܕܢܚ̈ܬܐ.
23 Sending to his father as much money and raiment, adding besides ten he asses to carry off all the riches of Egypt, and as many she asses, carrying wheat and bread for the journey.	23 ܘܠܐܒܘܗܝ ܫܕܪ ܗܟܢܐ ܘܥܣܪܐ ܚܡܪ̈ܝܢ. ܟܕ ܛܥܝܢ̈ܝܢ ܡܢ ܛܘܒܗ̇ ܕܐܪܥܐ ܕܡܨܪܝܢ. ܘܥܣܪ ܐܬܢܝ̈ܢ ܛܥܝܢ̈ܢ ܥܒܘܪܐ ܘܚܡܪܐ ܘܙܘ̈ܕܐ ܠܐܒܘܗܝ ܠܐܘܪܚܐ.
24 So he sent away his brethren, and at their departing said to them: Be not angry in the way.	24 ܘܫܕܪ ܐܢܘܢ ܘܐܙܠܘ. ܘܐܡ̣ܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܠܐ ܬܨܘܢ ܒܐܘܪܚܐ.
25 And they went up out of Egypt, and came into the land of Chanaan to their father Jacob.	25 ܘܣܠܩܘ ܡܢ ܡܨܪܝܢ. ܘܐܬܘ ܠܐܪܥܐ ܕܟܢܥܢ ܠܘܬ ܝܥܩܘܒ ܐܒܘܗܘܢ.
26 And they told him, saying: Joseph thy son is living: and he is ruler in all the land of Egypt. Which when Jacob heard, he awaked as it were out of a deep sleep, yet did not believe them.	26 ܘܚܘܝܘܗܝ ܘܐܡܪܘ ܠܗ. ܥܕܟܝܠ ܝܘܣܦ ܚܝ . ܘܗܘܝܘ ܫܠܝܛ ܒܟܠܗ̇ ܐܪܥܐ ܕܡܨܪܝܢ. ܘܐܗܡܝ ܒܠܒܗ ܡܛܠ ܕܠܐ ܗܝܡܢ ܐܢܘܢ.
27 They, on the other side, told the whole order of the thing. And when he saw the wagons and all that he had sent his spirit revived,	27 ܘܚܘܝܘܗܝ ܟܠܗܝܢ ܡ̈ܠܐ ܕܐܡ̣ܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܝܘܣܦ. ܘܚ̣ܙܐ ܝܥܩܘܒ ܥ̈ܓܠܬܐ ܕܫܕܪ ܝܘܣܦ ܠܡܫܩܠܗ. ܘܐܬܢܝܚܬ ܪܘܚܗ ܕܝܥܩܘܒ ܐܒܘܗܘܢ.
28 And he said: It is enough for me, if Joseph my son be yet living: Iwill go and see him before I die.	28 ܘܐܡ̣ܪ ܪܒܐ ܗܝ ܠܝ ܗܕܐ ܕܥܕܟܝܠ ܝܘܣܦ ܒܪܝ ܚܝ . ܐܙܠ ܐܚܙܝܘܗܝ ܥܕܠܐ ܐܡܘܬ.
