Genesis 43:30-34

30And JosephH3130 made hasteH4116; for his heartH7356 yearnedH3648 toward his brotherH251: and he soughtH1245 where to weepH1058; and he enteredH935 into his chamberH2315, and weptH1058 there. 31And he washedH7364 his faceH6440, and went outH3318, and controlledH662 himself, and saidH559, Set onH7760 breadH3899. 32And they set onH7760 for him by himself, and for them by themselves, and for the EgyptiansH4713, who ateH398 with him, by themselves: because the EgyptiansH4713 mightH3201 not eatH398 breadH3899 with the HebrewsH5680; for that is an abominationH8441 to the EgyptiansH4714. 33And they satH3427 before himH6440, the firstbornH1060 according to his birthrightH1062, and the youngestH6810 according to his youthH6812: and the menH582 wonderedH8539 oneH376 at anotherH7453. 34And he tookH5375 and sent messesH4864 to them from before himH6440: but Benjamin’sH1144 messH4864 was fiveH2568 timesH3027 so much asH7235 any of theirs. And they drankH8354, and were merryH7937 with him.1
