21Then the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 didH6213 soH3651; and JosephH3130 gaveH5414 them 12wagonsH5699 accordingH5921 to the 13commandH6310 of PharaohH6547, and gaveH5414 them provisionsH6720 for the journeyH1870. 22To 14eachH3605H376 of them he gaveH5414 15changesH2487 of garmentsH8071, but to BenjaminH1144 he gaveH5414 threeH7969 hundredH3967 pieces of silverH3701 and 16fiveH2568 changesH2487 of garmentsH8071. 23And to his fatherH1 he sentH7971 17the followingH2088: tenH6235 maleH2543 donkeysH2543 loadedH5375 with the 18bestH2898 thingsH2898 of EgyptH4714, tenH6235 femaleH860 donkeysH860 loadedH5375 with grainH1250, breadH3899, and sustenanceH4202 for his fatherH1 19on the journeyH1870.
