45:1

καὶ οὐκ ἠδύνατο Ιωσηφ ἀνέχεσθαι πάντων τῶν παρεστηκότων αὐτῷ ἀλλ’ εἶπεν ἐξαποστείλατε πάντας ἀπ’ ἐμοῦ καὶ οὐ παρειστήκει οὐδεὶς ἔτι τῷ Ιωσηφ ἡνίκα ἀνεγνωρίζετο τοῖς ἀδελφοῖς αὐτοῦ

And Joseph could no longer restrain himself before all who stood by him, but said, Send everyone away from me. And no one remained standing by Joseph when he made himself known to his brothers.

約瑟在一切侍立在他旁邊的人面前，再也忍耐不住，就說：叫眾人都離開我出去。約瑟與他的弟兄們相認的時候，並沒有一人站在他旁邊。

45:2

καὶ ἀφῆκεν φωνὴν μετὰ κλαυθμοῦ ἤκουσαν δὲ πάντες οἱ Αἰγύπτιοι καὶ ἀκουστὸν ἐγένετο εἰς τὸν οἶκον Φαραω

And he lifted up his voice with weeping, and all the Egyptians heard, and it was heard in the house of Pharaoh.

他就放聲大哭，埃及眾人都聽見了，法老家中也都聽見了。

45:3

εἶπεν δὲ Ιωσηφ πρὸς τοὺς ἀδελφοὺς αὐτοῦ ἐγώ εἰμι Ιωσηφ ἔτι ὁ πατήρ μου ζῇ καὶ οὐκ ἐδύναντο οἱ ἀδελφοὶ ἀποκριθῆναι αὐτῷ ἐταράχθησαν γάρ

And Joseph said to his brothers, I am Joseph. Is my father still alive? And his brothers could not answer him, for they were troubled.

約瑟對他的弟兄們說：我是約瑟；我父親還活著麼？他的弟兄們不能回答他，因為在他面前驚惶起來。

45:4

εἶπεν δὲ Ιωσηφ πρὸς τοὺς ἀδελφοὺς αὐτοῦ ἐγγίσατε πρός με καὶ ἤγγισαν καὶ εἶπεν ἐγώ εἰμι Ιωσηφ ὁ ἀδελφὸς ὑμῶν ὃν ἀπέδοσθε εἰς Αἴγυπτον

And Joseph said to his brothers, Come near to me. And they came near. And he said, I am Joseph your brother, whom you sold into Egypt.

約瑟對他的弟兄們說：請你們近前來。他們就近前來。他說：我是你們的兄弟約瑟，就是你們賣到埃及的。

45:5

νῦν οὖν μὴ λυπεῖσθε μηδὲ σκληρὸν ὑμῖν φανήτω ὅτι ἀπέδοσθέ με ὧδε εἰς γὰρ ζωὴν ἀπέστειλέν με ὁ θεὸς ἔμπροσθεν ὑμῶν

Now therefore do not be grieved, nor let it seem hard to you that you sold me here; for God sent me before you for life.

現在不要憂愁，也不要因為把我賣到這裡就自覺難受；因為神差我在你們以先來，是為要保全生命。

45:6

τοῦτο γὰρ δεύτερον ἔτος λιμὸς ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς καὶ ἔτι λοιπὰ πέντε ἔτη ἐν οἷς οὐκ ἔσται ἀροτρίασις οὐδὲ ἄμητος

For this is the second year of famine on the earth, and there are yet five years remaining in which there will be neither plowing nor harvest.

這地上的饑荒到今年已經是第二年了，還剩下五年不能耕種，也不能收割。

45:7

ἀπέστειλεν γάρ με ὁ θεὸς ἔμπροσθεν ὑμῶν ὑπολείπεσθαι ὑμῶν κατάλειμμα ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς καὶ ἐκθρέψαι ὑμῶν κατάλειψιν μεγάλην

For God sent me before you, to leave you a remnant upon the earth and to nourish for you a great preservation.

神差我在你們以先來，為要在地上為你們存留餘種，又要大大地養活你們所存留的人。

45:8

νῦν οὖν οὐχ ὑμεῖς με ἀπεστάλκατε ὧδε ἀλλ’ ἢ ὁ θεός καὶ ἐποίησέν με ὡς πατέρα Φαραω καὶ κύριον παντὸς τοῦ οἴκου αὐτοῦ καὶ ἄρχοντα πάσης γῆς Αἰγύπτου

Now therefore it was not you who sent me here, but God; and he made me as a father to Pharaoh, and lord of all his house, and ruler of all the land of Egypt.

這樣看來，差我到這裡來的不是你們，乃是神。他又使我如同法老的父，作他全家的主，並埃及全地的執政者。

45:9

σπεύσαντες οὖν ἀνάβητε πρὸς τὸν πατέρα μου καὶ εἴπατε αὐτῷ τάδε λέγει ὁ υἱός σου Ιωσηφ ἐποίησέν με ὁ θεὸς κύριον πάσης γῆς Αἰγύπτου κατάβηθι οὖν πρός με καὶ μὴ μείνῃς

Hasten therefore and go up to my father and say to him, Thus says your son Joseph: God has made me lord of all the land of Egypt; come down to me, and do not delay.

你們要趕緊上到我父親那裡，對他說：你兒子約瑟這樣說：神使我作了埃及全地的主；你下到我這裡來，不要耽延。
