ΑΝΑΓΝΩΣΗ

Γένεση 44: 18-29 45: 1-5

44:18 Then Judah, approaching closer, said confidently: "Σε ικετεύω, my lord, let your servant speak a word in your ears, and do not be angry with your servant. For you are next to Pharaoh.

44:19 My lord, you questioned your servants before: ‘Do you have a father or a brother?''

44:20 And we answered you, my lord: ‘There is our father, an old man, and a young boy, who was born in his old age. His brother of the same womb has died, and he alone is left to his mother and father, who truly love him tenderly.’

44:21 And you said to your servants, ‘Bring him to me, and I will set my eyes on him.’

44:22 We suggested to my lord: ‘The boy is not able to leave his father. For if he sends him away, he will die.’

44:23 And you said to your servants: ‘Unless your youngest brother arrives with you, you will not see my face any more.’

44:24 Επομένως, when we had gone up to your servant our father, we explained to him all that my lord had spoken.

44:25 And our father said: ‘Return and buy us a little wheat.’

44:26 And we said to him: ‘We cannot go. If our youngest brother descends with us, we will set out together. Σε διαφορετική περίπτωση, in his absence, we do not dare to see the face of the man.’

44:27 To which he responded: ‘You know that my wife conceived twice by me

. 44:28 One went out, και είπες, “A beast devoured him.” And since then, he has not appeared.

44:29 If you take this one also, and anything happens to him on the way, you will lead my grey hairs down with grief to the grave.’

45:1 Joseph was unable to restrain himself any longer, standing before so many. Επομένως, he instructed that all should go outside, and that no stranger should be among them as they recognized one another.

45:2 And he lifted up his voice with weeping, which the Egyptians heard, along with the entire house of Pharaoh.

45:3 And he said to his brothers: “I am Joseph. Is my father still alive?” His brothers were unable to respond, being terrified by a very great fear.

45:4 And he said to them mildly, “Approach toward me.” And when they had approached close by, αυτός είπε: “I am Joseph, your brother, whom you sold into Egypt.

45:5 Μην φοβάσαι, and let it not seem to you to be a hardship that you sold me into these regions. For God sent me before you into Egypt for your salvation.

Ευαγγέλιο

Το κατά Ματθαίον Ιερό Ευαγγέλιο 10: 7-15

10:7	Εξαιτίας αυτού, ένας άντρας θα αφήσει πίσω τον πατέρα και τη μητέρα του, και θα προσκολληθεί στη γυναίκα του.
10:8	And these two shall be one in flesh. Και έτσι, they are now, not two, but one flesh.
10:9	Επομένως, what God has joined together, let no man separate.”
10:10	Και ξανα, in the house, his disciples questioned him about the same thing.
10:11	Και τους είπε: “Whoever dismisses his wife, and marries another, commits adultery against her.
10:12	And if a wife dismisses her husband, and is married to another, she commits adultery.”
10:13	And they brought to him the little children, so that he might touch them. But the disciples admonished those who brought them.
10:14	But when Jesus saw this, he took offense, και τους είπε: “Allow the little ones to come to me, and do not prohibit them. For of such as these is the kingdom of God.
10:15	Αμήν σας λέω, whoever will not accept the kingdom of God like a little child, will not enter into it.”
