Genesis 44:1 - Prayer Tents

44And he commanded the steward of his house, saying, Fill the men's sacks with food, as much as they can carry, and put every man's money in his sack's mouth.H6680H1004H559H4390H582H572H400H834H3201H5375H7760H376H3701H572H6310 2And put my cup, the silver cup, in the sack's mouth of the youngest, and his corn money. And he did according to the word that Joseph had spoken.H7760H1375H3701H1375H572H6310H6996H7668H3701H6213H1697H3130H1696 3As soon as the morning was light, the men were sent away, they and their asses.H1242H215H582H7971H2543 4And when they were gone out of the city, and not yet far off, Joseph said unto his steward, Up, follow after the men; and when thou dost overtake them, say unto them, Wherefore have ye rewarded evil for good?H3318H5892H7368H3130H559H1004H6965H7291H310H582H5381H559H7999H7451H2896 5Is not this it in which my lord drinketh, and whereby indeed he divineth? ye have done evil in so doing.H113H8354H5172H5172H7489H6213 6And he overtook them, and he spake unto them these same words.H5381H1696H428H1697 7And they said unto him, Wherefore saith my lord these words? God forbid that thy servants should do according to this thing:H559H1696H113H1697H2486H5650H6213H1697 8Behold, the money, which we found in our sacks' mouths, we brought again unto thee out of the land of Canaan: how then should we steal out of thy lord's house silver or gold?H3701H4672H572H6310H7725H776H3667H1589H113H1004H3701H2091 9With whomsoever of thy servants it be found, both let him die, and we also will be my lord's bondmen.H5650H4672H4191H113H5650 10And he said, Now also let it be according unto your words; he with whom it is found shall be my servant; and ye shall be blameless.H559H1697H3651H4672H5650H5355 11Then they speedily took down every man his sack to the ground, and opened every man his sack.H4116H3381H376H572H776H6605H376H572 12And he searched, and began at the eldest, and left at the youngest: and the cup was found in Benjamin's sack.H2664H2490H1419H3615H6996H1375H4672H1144H572 13Then they rent their clothes, and laded every man his ass, and returned to the city.H7167H8071H6006H376H2543H7725H5892 14And Judah and his brethren came to Joseph's house; for he was yet there: and they fell before him on the ground.H3063H251H935H3130H1004H5307H6440H776 15And Joseph said unto them, What deed is this that ye have done? wot ye not that such a man as I can certainly divine?H3130H559H4639H6213H3045H376H5172H5172 16And Judah said, What shall we say unto my lord? what shall we speak? or how shall we clear ourselves? God hath found out the iniquity of thy servants: behold, we are my lord's servants, both we, and he also with whom the cup is found.H3063H559H559H113H1696H6663H430H4672H5771H5650H113H5650H1571H834H3027H1375H4672 17And he said, God forbid that I should do so: but the man in whose hand the cup is found, he shall be my servant; and as for you, get you up in peace unto your father.H559H2486H6213H2063H376H3027H1375H4672H5650H5927H7965H1 18Then Judah came near unto him, and said, Oh my lord, let thy servant, I pray thee, speak a word in my lord's ears, and let not thine anger burn against thy servant: for thou art even as Pharaoh.H3063H5066H559H994H113H5650H1696H1697H113H241H639H2734H5650H6547 19My lord asked his servants, saying, Have ye a father, or a brother?H113H7592H5650H559H3426H1H251 20And we said unto my lord, We have a father, an old man, and a child of his old age, a little one; and his brother is dead, and he alone is left of his mother, and his father loveth him.H559H113H3426H1H2205H3206H2208H6996H251H4191H3498H517H1H157 21And thou saidst unto thy servants, Bring him down unto me, that I may set mine eyes upon him.H559H5650H3381H7760H5869 22And we said unto my lord, The lad cannot leave his father: for if he should leave his father, his father would die.H559H113H5288H3201H5800H1H5800H1H4191 23And thou saidst unto thy servants, Except your youngest brother come down with you, ye shall see my face no more.H559H5650H3808H6996H251H3381H7200H3254H6440H7200H3254 24And it came to pass when we came up unto thy servant my father, we told him the words of my lord.H5927H5650H1H5046H1697H113 25And our father said, Go again, and buy us a little food.H1H559H7725H7666H4592H400 26And we said, We cannot go down: if our youngest brother be with us, then will we go down: for we may not see the man's face, except our youngest brother be with us.H559H3201H3381H6996H251H3426H3381H3201H7200H376H6440H369H6996H251 27And thy servant my father said unto us, Ye know that my wife bare me two sons:H5650H1H559H3045H802H3205H8147 28And the one went out from me, and I said, Surely he is torn in pieces; and I saw him not since:H259H3318H559H2963H2963H7200H2008 29And if ye take this also from me, and mischief befall him, ye shall bring down my gray hairs with sorrow to the grave.H3947H5973H6440H611H7136H3381H7872H7451H7585 30Now therefore when I come to thy servant my father, and the lad be not with us; seeing that his life is bound up in the lad's life;H935H5650H1H5288H5315H7194H5315 31It shall come to pass, when he seeth that the lad is not with us, that he will die: and thy servants shall bring down the gray hairs of thy servant our father with sorrow to the grave.H7200H5288H4191H5650H3381H7872H5650H1H3015H7585 32For thy servant became surety for the lad unto my father, saying, If I bring him not unto thee, then I shall bear the blame to my father for ever.H5650H6148H5288H5973H1H559H935H2398H1H3117 33Now therefore, I pray thee, let thy servant abide instead of the lad a bondman to my lord; and let the lad go up with his brethren.H5650H3427H5288H5650H113H5288H5927H251 34For how shall I go up to my father, and the lad be not with me? lest peradventure I see the evil that shall come on my father.H349H5927H1H5288H7200H7451H4672H1
