Genesis 43:15-22
15So the menH582 tookH3947 theseH2063 giftsH4503, along with doubleH4932 the amount of silverH3701H3947H3027, andH853 Benjamin as wellH1144. Then they hurried downH6965H3381 to EgyptH4714 and stoodH5975 beforeH6440 JosephH3130.
16When JosephH3130 sawH7200 BenjaminH1144 withH854 his brothers, he saidH559 to the stewardH834 ofH5921 his houseH1004, “TakeH935 these menH582 to my houseH1004. SlaughterH2873 an animalH2874 and prepare itH3559, forH3588 they shall dineH398H582 with meH854 at noonH6672.” 17The manH376 didH6213 asH834 JosephH3130 had commandedH559 and tookH935 the brothers to Joseph’sH3130 houseH1004.
18But theH582 brothers were frightenedH3372 thatH3588 they had been takenH935 to Joseph’sH3130 houseH1004. “WeH587 have been broughtH935 here because ofH5921H1697 the silverH3701 that was returnedH7725 in our bagsH572 the first timeH8462,” they saidH559. “They intendH1556H5921 to overpowerH5307 usH5921 and takeH3947 usH853 as slavesH5650, along withH853 our donkeysH2543.”
19So they approachedH5066 Joseph’sH3130 stewardH376 and spokeH1696 to himH413 at the entranceH6607 to the houseH1004. 20“PleaseH994, sirH113,” they saidH559, “we really did come downH3381 here the first timeH8462 to buyH7666 foodH400. 21ButH1961 whenH3588 we cameH935 toH413 the place we lodged for the nightH4411, we openedH6605 our sacksH572 and, beholdH2009, each of usH376 found his silverH3701 in the mouthH6310 of his sackH572! It was the full amountH4948 of our silverH3701, and we have brought it backH7725 with usH3027. 22We have broughtH3381 additionalH312 silverH3701 with usH3027 to buyH7666 foodH400. We do notH3808 knowH3045 whoH4310 putH7760 our silverH3701 in our sacksH572.”
