Kejadian 30:32

30:32 Let me walk among ¹  all your flocks today and remove from them every speckled or spotted sheep, every dark-colored lamb, ²  and the spotted or speckled goats. ³  These animals will be my wages. ⁴ 

Kejadian 30:35

30:35 So that day Laban ⁵  removed the male goats that were streaked or spotted, all the female goats that were speckled or spotted (all that had any white on them), and all the dark-colored lambs, and put them in the care ⁶  of his sons.

Kejadian 42:16

42:16 One of you must go and get ⁷  your brother, while ⁸  the rest of you remain in prison. ⁹  In this way your words may be tested to see if ¹⁰  you are telling the truth. ¹¹  If not, then, as surely as Pharaoh lives, you are spies!”

Kejadian 43:8

43:8 Then Judah said to his father Israel, “Send the boy with me and we will go immediately. ¹²  Then we will live ¹³  and not die – we and you and our little ones.

Kejadian 43:34

43:34 He gave them portions of the food set before him, ¹⁴  but the portion for Benjamin was five times greater than the portions for any of the others. They drank with Joseph until they all became drunk. ¹⁵ 

Kejadian 44:16

44:16 Judah replied, “What can we say ¹⁶  to my lord? What can we speak? How can we clear ourselves? ¹⁷  God has exposed the sin of your servants! ¹⁸  We are now my lord’s slaves, we and the one in whose possession the cup was found.”

[30:32]  ¹ tn Heb “pass through.”

[30:32]  ² tn Or “every black lamb”; Heb “and every dark sheep among the lambs.”

[30:32]  ³ tn Heb “and the spotted and speckled among the goats.”

[30:32]  ⁴ tn Heb “and it will be my wage.” The referent collective singular pronoun (“it) has been specified as “these animals” in the translation for clarity.

[30:35]  ⁵ tn Heb “he”; the referent (Laban) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[30:35]  ⁶ tn Heb “and he gave [them] into the hand.”

[42:16]  ⁷ tn Heb “send from you one and let him take.” After the imperative, the prefixed verbal form with prefixed vav (ו) indicates purpose.

[42:16]  ⁸ tn The disjunctive clause is here circumstantial-temporal.

[42:16]  ⁹ tn Heb “bound.”

[42:16]  ¹⁰ tn The words “to see” have been supplied in the translation for stylistic reasons.

[42:16]  ¹¹ tn Heb “the truth [is] with you.”

[43:8]  ¹² tn Heb “and we will rise up and we will go.” The first verb is adverbial and gives the expression the sense of “we will go immediately.”

[43:8]  ¹³ tn After the preceding cohortatives, the prefixed verbal form (either imperfect or cohortative) with the prefixed conjunction here indicates purpose or result.

[43:34]  ¹⁴ tn Heb “and he lifted up portions from before his face to them.”

[43:34]  ¹⁵ tn Heb “and they drank and were intoxicated with him” (cf. NIV “drank freely with him”; NEB “grew merry”; NRSV “were merry”). The brothers were apparently relaxed and set at ease, despite Joseph’s obvious favoritism toward Benjamin.

[44:16]  ¹⁶ tn The imperfect verbal form here indicates the subject’s potential.

[44:16]  ¹⁷ tn The Hitpael form of the verb צָדֵק (tsadeq) here means “to prove ourselves just, to declare ourselves righteous, to prove our innocence.”

[44:16]  ¹⁸ sn God has exposed the sin of your servants. The first three questions are rhetorical; Judah is stating that there is nothing they can say to clear themselves. He therefore must conclude that they have been found guilty.
