OET (OET-LV) And_see/lo/see your_all’s_eyes [are]_seeing and_eyes my_brother/kindred Binyāmīn if/because_that mouth_I the_speaking to_you_all.
OET (OET-RV) Look at me! Your yourselves and even my brother Benyamin can see that it’s really me who’s speaking to you.
וְהִנֵּ֤ה
and=see/lo/see!
Make sure it is clear in your translation that Joseph’s message to his father was completed in verse 11, and that here in verse 12 he is talking directly to his brothers again. Alternate translation: “Now look” or “Then Joseph said to his brothers, Look!”
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche
עֵֽינֵיכֶם֙
your_all's=eyes
The word eyes is used figuratively here (and in the next phrase) to refer to the persons themselves; it also emphasizes the fact that they were seeing Joseph in person. Consider what is the best way to translate this phrase in your language. Alternate translation: “I can tell that all of you,”
Note 2 topic: translate-kinship
וְעֵינֵ֖י אָחִ֣י בִנְיָמִ֑ין
and,eyes my=brother/kindred Binyāmīn
See how you translated brother in Gen 43:29.
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche
רֹא֔וֹת & כִּי פִ֖י
see & that/for/because/then/when mouth,I
Here the phrase my mouth refers to Joseph himself; it also emphasizes the fact that it was Joseph himself who was talking to them. Consider what is the best way to translate this figure of speech in your language. Alternate translation: “can see that I Joseph am the one”
45:1-15 In one of the most dramatic scenes of the book, Joseph revealed his identity to his brothers, bringing the process of reconciling with them to a climax (see also 50:14-21).
OET (OET-LV) And_see/lo/see your_all’s_eyes [are]_seeing and_eyes my_brother/kindred Binyāmīn if/because_that mouth_I the_speaking to_you_all.
OET (OET-RV) Look at me! Your yourselves and even my brother Benyamin can see that it’s really me who’s speaking to you.
Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
