Genesis 43:27-34 Young's Literal Translation Of The Holy Bible (YLT98)

27. and he asketh of them of peace, and saith, `Is your father well? the aged man of whom ye have spoken, is he yet alive?'

28. and they say, `Thy servant our father [is] well, he is yet alive;' and they bow, and do obeisance.

29. And he lifteth up his eyes, and seeth Benjamin his brother, his mother's son, and saith, `Is this your young brother, of whom ye have spoken unto me?' and he saith, `God favour thee, my son.'

30. And Joseph hasteth, for his bowels have been moved for his brother, and he seeketh to weep, and entereth the inner chamber, and weepeth there;

31. and he washeth his face, and goeth out, and refraineth himself, and saith, `Place bread.'

32. And they place for him by himself, and for them by themselves, and for the Egyptians who are eating with him by themselves: for the Egyptians are unable to eat bread with the Hebrews, for it [is] an abomination to the Egyptians.

33. And they sit before him, the first-born according to his birthright, and the young one according to his youth, and the men wonder one at another;

34. and he lifteth up gifts from before him unto them, and the gift of Benjamin is five hands more than the gifts of all of them; and they drink, yea, they drink abundantly with him.
