Und nun, ihr habt mich nicht hergesandt, sondern Gott, der hat mich Pharao zum Vater gesetzt und zum Herrn über all sein Haus und zum Fürsten in ganz Ägyptenland.
Así pues, no me enviasteis vosotros acá, sino Dios, que me ha puesto por padre de Faraón, y por señor de toda su casa, y por gobernador en toda la tierra de Egipto.
Así que no fueron ustedes quienes me enviaron aquí, sino Dios. Él me ha puesto como padre para el faraón, como señor de toda su casa y como gobernador de toda la tierra de Egipto.
Ce n'est donc pas vous qui m'avez envoyé ici, mais c'est Dieu; il m'a établi père de Pharaon, maître de toute sa maison, et gouverneur de tout le pays d'Egypte.
Ora dunque, non voi mi avete mandato qua, anzi Iddio; ed egli mi ha costituito per padre a Faraone, e per padrone sopra tutta la sua casa, e rettore in tutto il paese di Egitto.
Assim não fostes vós que me enviastes para cá, senão Deus, que me tem posto por pai de Faraó, e por senhor de toda a sua casa, e como regente em toda a terra do Egito.
這樣看來,差我到這裏來的不是你們,而是上帝。他又使我如同法老之父,作他全家之主,和 埃及 全地掌權的人。
