25. Then they laid out the gift until Joseph came at noon, for they had heard that they were to eat food there.
26. And when Joseph came into the house they brought the gift that was in their hand into the house to him, and they bowed down before him to the ground.
27. And he greeted them and said, “Is your father well, the old man of whom you spoke? Is he still alive?”
28. And they said, “Your servant our father is well; he is still alive.” And they knelt and bowed down.
29. Then he lifted up his eyes and saw Benjamin his brother, the son of his mother, and said, “Is this your youngest brother of whom you told me?” And he continued, “God be gracious to you, my son.”
30. Then Joseph hurried away, being overcome with emotion toward his brother, and sought for a place to cry. Then he went into a room and wept there.
31. Then he washed his face and went out, now controlling himself, and said, “Serve the food.”
32. And they served him by himself, and them by themselves, and the Egyptians who were eating with him by themselves, for Egyptians could not dine with Hebrews, because that was a detestable thing to Egyptians.
33. And they were seated before him from the firstborn according to his birthright to the youngest according to his youth. And the men looked at one another amazed.
34. And portions were served to them from his table, and the portion of Benjamin was five times greater than the portion of any of them. And they drank and became drunk with him.
