43And the famine was sore in the land.H7458H3515H776 2And it came to pass, when they had eaten up the corn which they had brought out of Egypt, their father said unto them, Go again, buy us a little food.H3615H398H7668H935H4714H1H559H7725H7666H4592H400 3And Judah spake unto him, saying, The man did solemnly protest unto us, saying, Ye shall not see my face, except your brother be with you.H3063H559H559H376H5749H5749H559H7200H6440H1115H251 4If thou wilt send our brother with us, we will go down and buy thee food:H3426H7971H251H3381H7666H400 5But if thou wilt not send him, we will not go down: for the man said unto us, Ye shall not see my face, except your brother be with you.H7971H3381H376H559H7200H6440H251 6And Israel said, Wherefore dealt ye so ill with me, as to tell the man whether ye had yet a brother?H3478H559H7489H5046H376H251 7And they said, The man asked us straitly of our state, and of our kindred, saying, Is your father yet alive? have ye another brother? and we told him according to the tenor of these words: could we certainly know that he would say, Bring your brother down?H559H376H7592H7592H4138H559H1H2416H3426H251H5046H5921H6310H1697H3045H3045H559H3381H251H3381 8And Judah said unto Israel his father, Send the lad with me, and we will arise and go; that we may live, and not die, both we, and thou, and also our little ones.H3063H559H3478H1H7971H5288H6965H3212H2421H4191H2945 9I will be surety for him; of my hand shalt thou require him: if I bring him not unto thee, and set him before thee, then let me bear the blame for ever:H6148H3027H1245H518H935H518H3322H6440H2398H3117 10For except we had lingered, surely now we had returned this second time.H3884H4102H7725H6471 11And their father Israel said unto them, If it must be so now, do this; take of the best fruits in the land in your vessels, and carry down the man a present, a little balm, and a little honey, spices, and myrrh, nuts, and almonds:H1H3478H559H645H6213H3947H2173H776H3627H3381H376H4503H4592H6875H4592H1706H5219H3910H992H8247 12And take double money in your hand; and the money that was brought again in the mouth of your sacks, carry it again in your hand; peradventure it was an oversight:H3947H4932H3701H3027H3701H7725H6310H572H7725H3027H4870 13Take also your brother, and arise, go again unto the man:H3947H251H6965H7725H376 14And God Almighty give you mercy before the man, that he may send away your other brother, and Benjamin. If I be bereaved of my children, I am bereaved.H410H7706H5414H7356H6440H376H7971H312H251H1144H834H7921H7921 15And the men took that present, and they took double money in their hand, and Benjamin; and rose up, and went down to Egypt, and stood before Joseph.H582H3947H2063H4503H3947H4932H3701H3027H1144H6965H3381H4714H5975H6440H3130 16And when Joseph saw Benjamin with them, he said to the ruler of his house, Bring these men home, and slay, and make ready; for these men shall dine with me at noon.H3130H7200H1144H854H559H1004H935H582H1004H2873H2874H3559H582H398H6672 17And the man did as Joseph bade; and the man brought the men into Joseph's house.H376H6213H3130H559H376H935H582H3130H1004 18And the men were afraid, because they were brought into Joseph's house; and they said, Because of the money that was returned in our sacks at the first time are we brought in; that he may seek occasion against us, and fall upon us, and take us for bondmen, and our asses.H582H3372H935H3130H1004H559H1697H3701H7725H572H8462H935H1556H5307H3947H5650H2543 19And they came near to the steward of Joseph's house, and they communed with him at the door of the house,H5066H376H3130H1004H1696H6607H1004 20And said, O sir, we came indeed down at the first time to buy food:H559H994H113H3381H3381H8462H7666H400 21And it came to pass, when we came to the inn, that we opened our sacks, and, behold, every man's money was in the mouth of his sack, our money in full weight: and we have brought it again in our hand.H935H4411H6605H572H376H3701H6310H572H3701H4948H7725H3027 22And other money have we brought down in our hands to buy food: we cannot tell who put our money in our sacks.H312H3701H3381H3027H7666H400H3045H7760H3701H572 23And he said, Peace be to you, fear not: your God, and the God of your father, hath given you treasure in your sacks: I had your money. And he brought Simeon out unto them.H559H7965H3372H430H430H1H5414H4301H572H935H3701H3318H8095 24And the man brought the men into Joseph's house, and gave them water, and they washed their feet; and he gave their asses provender.H376H935H582H3130H1004H5414H4325H7364H7272H5414H2543H4554 25And they made ready the present against Joseph came at noon: for they heard that they should eat bread there.H3559H4503H5704H3130H935H6672H8085H398H3899 26And when Joseph came home, they brought him the present which was in their hand into the house, and bowed themselves to him to the earth.H3130H935H1004H935H4503H3027H1004H7812H776 27And he asked them of their welfare, and said, Is your father well, the old man of whom ye spake? Is he yet alive?H7592H7965H559H1H7965H2205H559H2416 28And they answered, Thy servant our father is in good health, he is yet alive. And they bowed down their heads, and made obeisance.H559H5650H1H7965H2416H6915H7812 29And he lifted up his eyes, and saw his brother Benjamin, his mother's son, and said, Is this your younger brother, of whom ye spake unto me? And he said, God be gracious unto thee, my son.H5375H5869H7200H251H1144H517H1121H559H6996H251H559H559H430H2603H1121 30And Joseph made haste; for his bowels did yearn upon his brother: and he sought where to weep; and he entered into his chamber, and wept there.H3130H4116H7356H3648H251H1245H1058H935H2315H1058 31And he washed his face, and went out, and refrained himself, and said, Set on bread.H7364H6440H3318H662H559H7760H3899 32And they set on for him by himself, and for them by themselves, and for the Egyptians, which did eat with him, by themselves: because the Egyptians might not eat bread with the Hebrews; for that is an abomination unto the Egyptians.H7760H4713H398H4713H3201H398H3899H5680H8441H4714 33And they sat before him, the firstborn according to his birthright, and the youngest according to his youth: and the men marvelled one at another.H3427H6440H1060H1062H6810H6812H582H8539H376H7453 34And he took and sent messes unto them from before him: but Benjamin's mess was five times so much as any of theirs. And they drank, and were merry with him.H5375H4864H6440H1144H4864H2568H3027H7235H8354H7937
