Genesis 43:22-30 World Messianic Bible (WMB)

22. We have brought down other money in our hand to buy food. We don’t know who put our money in our sacks.”

23. He said, “Peace be to you. Don’t be afraid. Your God, and the God of your father, has given you treasure in your sacks. I received your money.” He brought Simeon out to them.

24. The man brought the men into Joseph’s house, and gave them water, and they washed their feet. He gave their donkeys fodder.

25. They prepared the present for Joseph’s coming at noon, for they heard that they should eat bread there.

26. When Joseph came home, they brought him the present which was in their hand into the house, and bowed themselves down to the earth before him.

27. He asked them of their welfare, and said, “Is your father well, the old man of whom you spoke? Is he yet alive?”

28. They said, “Your servant, our father, is well. He is still alive.” They bowed down humbly.

29. He lifted up his eyes, and saw Benjamin, his brother, his mother’s son, and said, “Is this your youngest brother, of whom you spoke to me?” He said, “God be gracious to you, my son.”

30. Joseph hurried, for his heart yearned over his brother; and he sought a place to weep. He entered into his room, and wept there.
