《圣经》（新旧约全书）

小北

流便说，我岂不是对你们说过，不可伤害那孩子吗。只是你们不肯听，所以流他血的罪向我们追讨。
And Reuben answered them, saying, Spake I not unto you, saying, Do not sin against the child; and ye would not hear? therefore, behold, also his blood is required

小北

他们不知道约瑟听得出来，因为在他们中间用通事传话。
And they knew not that Joseph understood them; for he spake unto them by an interpreter

小北

约瑟转身退去，哭了一场，又回来对他们说话，就从他们中间挑出西缅来，在他们眼前把他捆绑。
And he turned himself about from them, and wept; and returned to them again, and communed with them, and took from them Simeon, and bound him before their eyes

小北

约瑟吩咐人把粮食装满他们的器具，把各人的银子归还在各人的口袋里，又给他们路上用的食物，人就照他的话办了。
Then Joseph commanded to fill their sacks with corn, and to restore every man's money into his sack, and to give them provision for the way: and thus did he unto them

小北

他们就把粮食驮在驴上，离开那里去了。
And they laded their asses with the corn, and departed thence

小北

到了住宿的地方，他们中间有一个人打开口袋，要拿料喂驴，才看见自己的银子仍在口袋里，
And as one of them opened his sack to give his ass provender in the inn, he espied his money; for, behold, it was in his sack's mouth

小北

就对弟兄们说，我的银子归还了，看阿，仍在我口袋里。他们就提心吊胆，战战兢兢地彼此说，这是神向我们作什么呢，
And he said unto his brethren, My money is restored; and, lo, it is even in my sack: and their heart failed them, and they were afraid, saying one to another, What is this that God hath done unto us?

小北

他们来到迦南地，他们的父亲雅各那里，将所遭遇的事都告诉他，说，
And they came unto Jacob their father unto the land of Canaan, and told him all that befell unto them; saying

小北

那地的主对我们说严厉的话，把我们当作窥探那地的奸细。
The man, who is the lord of the land, spake roughly to us, and took us for spies of the country

小北

我们对他说，我们是诚实人，并不是奸细。
And we said unto him, We are true men; we are no spies
