Genesis 43:15-22

15And the menH376 tookH3947 that presentH4503, and they tookH3947 doubleH4932 moneyH3701 in their handH3027, and BenjaminH1144; and roseH6965 upH6965, and wentH3381 downH3381 to EgyptH4714, and stoodH5975 beforeH6440 JosephH3130.

16And when JosephH3130 sawH7200 BenjaminH1144 with them, he saidH559 to the stewardH376 of his houseH1004, BringH935 the menH376 intoH935 the houseH1004, and slayH2873, and makeH3559 readyH3559; for the menH376 shall dineH398 with meH5921 at noonH6672.

17And the manH376 didH6213 as JosephH3130 bade; and the manH376 broughtH935 the menH376 intoH935 Joseph’sH3130 houseH1004.

18And the menH376 were afraidH3372, becauseH3588 they were broughtH935 intoH935 Joseph’sH3130 houseH1004; and they saidH559, BecauseH3588 of the moneyH3701 that was returnedH7725 in our sacksH572 at the firstH8462 time are weH587 broughtH935 in; that he may seekH1556 occasionH1556 againstH5921 usH5921, and fallH5307 uponH5921 usH5921, and takeH3947 usH5921 for bondmen, and our asses.

19And they cameH5066 nearH5066 to the stewardH376 of Joseph’sH3130 houseH1004, and they spake unto him at the doorH6607 of the houseH1004,

20and saidH559, Oh my lordH113, we cameH3381 indeedH3381 downH3381 at the firstH8462 time to buyH7666 foodH400:

21and it cameH935 to passH935, when weH3588 cameH935 to the lodgingH4411 placeH1961, that weH3588 openedH6605 our sacksH572, and, beholdH2009, everyH376 man’sH376 moneyH3701 was in the mouthH6310 of his sackH572, our moneyH3701 in fullH7725 weightH4948: and weH3588 have broughtH935 it againH7725 in our handH3027.

22And otherH312 moneyH3701 have we broughtH3381 downH3381 in our handH3027 to buyH7666 foodH400: we knowH3045 notH3808 who putH7760 our moneyH3701 in our sacksH572.
