Löydetty 20764 Tulokset: Or
At this, Juda made bold to draw nearer him; My lord, he said, let thy servant speak a word for thy own hearing, without earning thy displeasure, Pharao’s viceroy though thou art, and my sovereign lord. (Genesis 44, 18)
When thou didst ask us whether we had a father or a brother living, (Genesis 44, 19)
our answer was, My lord, we have a father well advanced in years, and one of his sons is still with him, the youngest, who was born to him in his old age. There was another son by the same mother, but he is dead, and now only this one recalls his mother’s memory, so that his father loves him dearly. (Genesis 44, 20)
My lord, we urged, our father cannot do without the boy; the parting would kill him. (Genesis 44, 22)
You know, he answered, that my own wife only bore me two sons; (Genesis 44, 27)
If you take this one too, and any harm befalls him on the way, you will send an old man sorrowing to the grave. (Genesis 44, 29)
My lord, shall I present myself before my father, and the boy not with me? His life is bound up with his son’s, (Genesis 44, 30)
and if he finds we have not brought him with us, it will be the death of him; must we bring an old man to the grave in sorrow? (Genesis 44, 31)
Enslave me instead; with full justice, I made myself answerable for him. If I do not bring him back, I said, I will never claim my own father’s forgiveness. (Genesis 44, 32)
I, therefore, my lord, would be left here as thy servant, to wait upon thee in his stead; let the boy go home with his brethren. (Genesis 44, 33)
Joseph could contain himself no longer, and there were many standing by. So he gave orders that all these should leave his presence; there must be no strangers to see it, when he made himself known. (Genesis 45, 1)
And now, do not take it to heart; waste no regrets over the bargain that brought me here; if I came to Egypt first, it was on God’s errand, to be your protector. (Genesis 45, 5)
