Genesis 43:16-25

16And JosephH3130 sawH7200 BenjaminH1144 with them, and saidH559 to the [manH376] who was over his houseH1004, BringH935 the menH376 into the houseH1004, and slaughterH2874 cattle, and make ready; for the menH376 shall eatH398 with me at noonH6672.

17And the manH376 did as JosephH3130 had saidH559; and the manH376 broughtH935 the menH376 into Joseph's houseH1004.

18And the menH376 were afraidH3372 because they were broughtH935 into Joseph's houseH1004, and saidH559, Because of the moneyH3701 that was returnedH7725 to us in our sacksH572 at the beginning are we broughtH935 in, that he may turnH7725 against us, and fallH5307 upon us and takeH3947 us for bondmen, and our asses.

19And they came up to the manH376 that was over Joseph's houseH1004, and they spokeH1696 to him at the doorH6607 of the houseH1004,

20and saidH559, Ah! my lordH113, we cameH3381 indeed downH3381 at the firstH8462 to buyH7666 foodH400.

21And it cameH935 to pass when we cameH935 to the inn, that we openedH6605 our sacksH572, and behold, [every] man's moneyH3701 wasH1961 in the mouthH6310 of his sackH572, our moneyH3701 according to its weightH4948; and we have broughtH935 it again in our handH3027.

22And otherH312 moneyH3701 have we broughtH3381 downH3381 in our handH3027 to buyH7666 foodH400. We do not knowH3045 who putH7760 our moneyH3701 in our sacksH572.

23And he saidH559, PeaceH7965 be to you, fearH3372 not: your 1GodH430, and the 2GodH430 of your fatherH1, has givenH5414 you treasure in your sacksH572; your moneyH3701 cameH935 to me. And he broughtH935 SimeonH8095 out to them.

24And the manH376 broughtH935 the menH376 into Joseph's houseH1004, and gaveH5414 waterH4325, and they washedH7364 their feetH7272; and he gaveH5414 their asses food.

25And they made ready the giftH4503 for Joseph's comingH935 at noonH6672; for they had heardH8085 that they should eatH398 breadH3899 there.
