World English Bible

Joseph remembered the dreams which he dreamed about them, and said to them, "You are spies! You have come to see the nakedness of the land."

And remembering the dreams, which formerly he had dreamed, he said to them: You are spies. You are come to view the weaker parts of the land.

Webster's Bible Translation

And Joseph remembered the dreams which he dreamed of them, and said to them, Ye are spies; to see the nakedness of the land have ye come.

ויזכר 2142 יוסף 3130 את 853 החלמות 2472 אשׁר 834 חלם 2492 להם  ויאמר 559  אלהם 413  מרגלים 7270 אתם 859 לראות 7200 את 853 ערות 6172 הארץ 776 באתם׃ 935

VERSE (9) - Ge 37:5-9

SEV Biblia, Chapter 42:9

Entonces se acordó José de los sueños que había soñado de ellos, y les dijo: Espías sois; por ver lo descubierto de la tierra habéis venido.

Clarke's Bible Commentary - Genesis 42:9

Verse 9. Ye are spies] µta µylgrm meraggelim attem, ye are footmen, trampers about, footpads, vagabonds, lying in wait for the property of others; persons who, under the pretense of wishing to buy corn, desire only to find out whether the land be so defenceless that the tribes to which ye belong (see ver. 11) may attack it successfully, drive out the inhabitants, and settle in it themselves; or, having plundered it, retire to their deserts. This is a frequent custom among the Arabs to the present day. Thus Joseph spake roughly to them merely to cover that warmth of affection which he felt towards them; and that being thus brought, apparently, into straits and dangerous circumstances, their consciences might be awakened to reflect on and abhor their own wickedness.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 7-20 - Joseph was hard upon his brethren, not from a spirit of revenge, but to bring them to repentance. Not seeing his brother Benjamin, he suspecte that they had made away with him, and he gave them occasion to speak of their father and brother. God, in his providence, sometimes seems hars with those he loves, and speaks roughly to those for whom yet he ha great mercy in store. Joseph settled at last, that one of them shoul be left, and the rest go home and fetch Benjamin. It was a very encouraging word he said to them, "I fear God;" as if he had said, Yo may be assured I will do you no wrong; I dare not, for I know there is one higher than I. With those that fear God, we may expect fai dealing.
