Genesis 42:20-26 Darby Translation 1890 (DARBY)

20. and bring your youngest brother to me, in order that your words be verified, and that ye may not die. And they did so.

21. Then they said one to another, We are indeed guilty concerning our brother, whose anguish of soul we saw when he besought us, and we did not hearken; therefore this distress is come upon us.

22. And Reuben answered them, saying, Did I not speak to you, saying, Do not sin against the lad? But ye did not hearken; and now behold, his blood also is required.

23. And they did not know that Joseph understood, for the interpreter was between them.

24. And he turned away from them, and wept. And he returned to them, and spoke to them, and took Simeon from among them, and bound him before their eyes.

25. And Joseph gave orders to fill their vessels with corn, and to restore every man's money into his sack, and to give them provision for the way. And thus did they to them.

26. And they loaded their asses with their grain, and departed thence.
