Douai-Rheims	Bibbia Vulgata Clementina
¹ And Joseph commanded the steward of his house, saying: Fill their sacks with corn, as much as they can hold: and put the money of every one in the top of his sack.	¹ Præcepit autem Joseph dispensatori domus suæ, dicens : Imple saccos eorum frumento, quantum possunt capere : et pone pecuniam singulorum in summitate sacci.
² And in the mouth of the younger's sack put my silver cup, and the price which he gave for the wheat. And it was so done.	² Scyphum autem meum argenteum, et pretium quod dedit tritici, pone in ore sacci junioris. Factumque est ita.
³ And when the morning arose, they were sent away with their asses.	³ Et orto mane, dimissi sunt cum asinis suis.
⁴ And when they were now departed out of the city, and had gone forward a little way; Joseph sendingfor the steward of his house, said: Arise, and pursue after the men: and when thou hast overtaken them, say to them: Why have you returned evil for good?	⁴ Jamque urbem exierant, et processerant paululum : tunc Joseph accersito dispensatore domus, Surge, inquit, et persequere viros : et apprehensis dicito : Quare reddidistis malum pro bono ?
⁵ The cup which you have stolen is that in which my lord drinketh, and in which he is wont to divine: you have done a very evil thing.	⁵ scyphus, quem furati estis, ipse est in quo bibit dominus meus, et in quo augurari solet : pessimam rem fecistis.
⁶ He did as he had commanded him. And having overtaken them, he spoke to them the same words.	⁶ Fecit ille ut jusserat : et apprehensis per ordinem locutus est.
⁷ And they answered: Why doth our lord speak so, as though thy servants had committed so heinous a fact?	⁷ Qui responderunt : Quare sic loquitur dominus noster, ut servi tui tantum flagitii commiserint ?
⁸ The money, that we found in the top of our sacks, we brought back to thee from the land of Chanaan: how then should it be that we should steal out of thy lord's house, gold or silver?	⁸ pecuniam, quam invenimus in summitate saccorum, reportavimus ad te de terra Chanaan : et quomodo consequens est ut furati simus de domo domini tui aurum vel argentum ?
⁹ With whomsoever of thy servants shall be found that which thou seekest, let him die, and we will be the bondmen of my lord.	⁹ apud quemcumque fuerit inventum servorum tuorum quod quæris, moriatur, et nos erimus servi domini nostri.
¹⁰ And he said to them: Let it be according to your sentence: with whomsoever it shall be found, let him be my servant, and you shall be blameless.	¹⁰ Qui dixit eis : Fiat juxta vestram sententiam : apud quemcumque fuerit inventum, ipse sit servus meus, vos autem eritis innoxii.
¹¹ Them they speedily took down their sacks to the ground, and every man opened his sack.	¹¹ Itaque festinato deponentes in terram saccos, aperuerunt singuli.
¹² Which when he had searched, beginning at the eldest and ending at the youngest, he found the cup in Benjamin's sack.	¹² Quos scrutatus, incipiens a majore usque ad minimum, invenit scyphum in sacco Benjamin.
¹³ Then they rent their garments, and loading their asses again, returned into the town.	¹³ At illi, scissis vestibus, oneratisque rursum asinis, reversi sunt in oppidum.
¹⁴ And Juda at the head of his brethren went in to Joseph, (for he was not yet gone out of the place, ) and they altogether fell down before him on the ground.	¹⁴ Primusque Judas cum fratribus ingressus est ad Joseph (necdum enim de loco abierat) omnesque ante eum pariter in terram corruerunt.
¹⁵ And he said to them: Why would you do so? know you not that there is no one like me in the science of divining.	¹⁵ Quibus ille ait : Cur sic agere voluistis ? an ignoratis quod non sit similis mei in augurandi scientia ?
¹⁶ And Juda said to him: What shall we answer my lord? or what shall we say, or be able justly to allege? God hath found out the iniquity of thy servants: behold, we are all bondmen to my lord, both we, and he with whom the cup was found.	¹⁶ Cui Judas : Quid respondebimus, inquit, domino meo ? vel quid loquemur, aut juste poterimus obtendere ? Deus invenit iniquitatem servorum tuorum : en omnes servi sumus domini mei, et nos, et apud quem inventus est scyphus.
¹⁷ Joseph answered: God forbid that should do so: he that stole the cup, he shall be my bondman: and go you away free to your father.	¹⁷ Respondit Joseph : Absit a me ut sic agam : qui furatus est scyphum, ipse sit servus meus : vos autem abite liberi ad patrem vestrum.
¹⁸ Then Juda coming hearer, said boldly: I beseech thee, my lord, let thy servant speak a word in thy ears,and be not angry with thy servant: for after Pharao thou art,	¹⁸ Accedens autem propius Judas, confidenter ait : Oro, domine mi, loquatur servus tuus verbum in auribus tuis, et ne irascaris famulo tuo : tu es enim post Pharaonem
¹⁹ My lord. Thou didst ask thy servants the first time: Have you a father or a brother?	¹⁹ dominus meus. Interrogasti prius servos tuos : Habetis patrem aut fratrem ?
²⁰ And we answered thee, my lord: We have a father an old man, and a young boy, that was born in his old age; whose brother by the mother is dead: and he alone is left of his mother, and his father loveth him tenderly.	²⁰ et nos respondimus tibi domino meo : Est nobis pater senex, et puer parvulus, qui in senectute illius natus est : cujus uterinus frater mortuus est : et ipsum solum habet mater sua, pater vero tenere diligit eum.
²¹ And thou saidst to thy servants: Bring him hither to me, and I will set my eyes on him.	²¹ Dixistique servis tuis : Adducite eum ad me, et ponam oculos meos super illum.
²² We suggested to my lord: The boy cannot leave his father: for if he leave him, he will die.	²² Suggessimus domino meo : Non potest puer relinquere patrem suum : si enim illum dimiserit, morietur.
²³ And thou saidst to thy servants: Except your youngest brother come with you, you shall see my face no more.	²³ Et dixisti servis tuis : Nisi venerit frater vester minimus vobiscum, non videbitis amplius faciem meam.
²⁴ Therefore when we were gone up to thy servant our father, we told him all that my lord had said.	²⁴ Cum ergo ascendissemus ad famulum tuum patrem nostrum, narravimus ei omnia quæ locutus est dominus meus.
²⁵ And our father said: Go again, and buy us a little wheat.	²⁵ Et dixit pater noster : Revertimini, et emite nobis parum tritici.
²⁶ And we said to him: We cannot go: if our youngest brother go down with us, we will set out together: otherwise, without him we dare not see the man's face.	²⁶ Cui diximus : Ire non possumus : si frater noster minimus descenderit nobiscum, proficiscemur simul : alioquin illo absente, non audemus videre faciem viri.
²⁷ Whereunto he answered: You know that my wife bore two.	²⁷ Ad quæ ille respondit : Vos scitis quod duos genuerit mihi uxor mea.
²⁸ One went out, and you said: A beast devoured him: and hitherto he appeareth not.	²⁸ Egressus est unus, et dixistis : Bestia devoravit eum : et hucusque non comparet.
²⁹ If you take this also, and any thing befall him in the way you will bring down my gray hairs with sorrow unto hell.	²⁹ Si tuleritis et istum, et aliquid ei in via contigerit, deducetis canos meos cum m?rore ad inferos.
³⁰ Therefore if I shall go to thy servant our father, and the boy be wanting, (whereas his life dependeth upon the life of him,)	³⁰ Igitur si intravero ad servum tuum patrem nostrum, et puer defuerit (cum anima illius ex hujus anima pendeat),
³¹ And he shall see that he is not with us, he will die, and thy servants shall bring down his gray hairs with sorrow unto hell.	³¹ videritque eum non esse nobiscum, morietur, et deducent famuli tui canos ejus cum dolore ad inferos.
³² Let me be tht proper servant, who took him into my trust, and promised, saying: If I bring him not again, I will be guilty of sin against my father for ever.	³² Ego proprie servus tuus sim qui in meam hunc recepi fidem, et spopondi dicens : Nisi reduxero eum, peccati reus ero in patrem meum omni tempore.
³³ Therefore I thy servant will stay instead of the boy in the service of my lord, and let the boy go up with his brethren.	³³ Manebo itaque servus tuus pro puero in ministerio domini mei, et puer ascendat cum fratribus suis.
³⁴ For I cannot return to my father without the boy, lest I be a witness of the calamity that will oppress my father.	³⁴ Non enim possum redire ad patrem meum, absente puero : ne calamitatis, quæ oppressura est patrem meum, testis assistam.
