Genesis 42:25-35

25Then JosephH3130 commandedH6680 to fillH4390 their vesselsH3627 with corn, and to restoreH7725 everyH376 man’sH376 moneyH3701 intoH413 his sackH8242, and to giveH5414 them provision for the wayH1870: and thusH3651 was it doneH6213 unto them.

26And they laded their asses with their corn, and departed thence.

27And as one of them openedH6605 his sackH572 to giveH5414 his ass provender in the lodgingH4411 placeH5414, he espied his moneyH3701; and, beholdH2009, it was in the mouthH6310 of his sackH572.

28And he saidH559 unto his brethrenH251, My moneyH3701 is restoredH7725; and, loH2009, it is evenH1571 in my sackH572: and their heartH3820 failedH3318 them, and they turnedH7725 tremblingH2729 one to anotherH251, sayingH559, WhatH4100 is this that GodH430 hath doneH6213 unto usH413?

29And they cameH935 unto JacobH3290 their fatherH1 unto the landH776 of CanaanH3667, and toldH5046 him allH3605 that had befallen them; sayingH559,

30The manH376, the lordH113 of the landH776, spake roughly with usH5414, and tookH853 usH5414 for spiesH7270 of the countryH776.

31And weH587 saidH559 unto him, WeH587 are trueH3651 menH559; weH587 are noH3808 spiesH7270:

32weH587 be twelveH6240 brethrenH251, sonsH1121 of our fatherH1; one is notH369, and the youngestH6996 is this dayH3117 with our fatherH1 in the landH776 of CanaanH3667.

33And the manH376, the lordH113 of the landH776, saidH559 unto usH413, Hereby shall I knowH3045 that ye are trueH3651 menH376; leaveH3240 one of your brethrenH251 with meH413, and takeH3947 corn for the famineH7459 of your housesH1004, and goH3240 your wayH2063:

34and bringH935 your youngestH6996 brotherH251 unto meH413: then shall I knowH3045 that ye are noH3808 spiesH7270, but that ye are trueH3651 men: soH3651 will I deliverH5414 youH859 your brotherH251, and ye shall traffick in the landH776.

35And it cameH1961 to passH1961 as they emptied their sacksH8242, that, beholdH2009, everyH376 man’sH376 bundle of moneyH3701 was in his sackH8242: and when they and their fatherH1 sawH7200 their bundles of moneyH3701, they were afraidH3372.
