Genesis 43:17-22 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

17. And the man did as Yosĕph said, and the man brought the men into Yosĕph’s house.

18. And the men were afraid because they were brought into Yosĕph’s house. And they said, “It is because of the silver, which was put back into our sacks the first time, that we are brought in, to throw himself upon us and fall upon us, to take us as slaves, our donkeys too.”

19. So they came near to the man over the house of Yosĕph, and spoke to him at the door of the house,

20. and said, “O my master, we indeed came down the first time to buy food,

21. but it came to be, when we came to the lodging place, that we opened our sacks and saw each man’s silver in the mouth of his sack, our silver in its weight. And we have brought it back in our hand.

22. “And we have brought down other silver in our hands to buy food. We do not know who put our silver in our sacks.”
