13. Take your brother and return at once.
14. May Almighty God cause the man to have pity on you, so that he will give Benjamin and your other brother back to you. As for me, if I must lose my children, I must lose them.”
15. So the brothers took the gifts and twice as much money, and set out for Egypt with Benjamin. There they presented themselves to Joseph.
16. When Joseph saw Benjamin with them, he said to the servant in charge of his house, “Take these men to my house. They are going to eat with me at noon, so kill an animal and prepare it.”
17. The servant did as he was commanded and took the brothers to Joseph's house.
18. As they were being brought to the house, they were afraid and thought, “We are being brought here because of the money that was returned in our sacks the first time. They will suddenly attack us, take our donkeys, and make us his slaves.”
19. So at the door of the house, they said to the servant in charge,
20. “If you please, sir, we came here once before to buy food.
21. When we set up camp on the way home, we opened our sacks, and each man found his money in the top of his sack — every bit of it. We have brought it back to you.
22. We have also brought some more money with us to buy more food. We do not know who put our money back in our sacks.”
23. The servant said, “Don't worry. Don't be afraid. Your God, the God of your father, must have put the money in your sacks for you. I received your payment.” Then he brought Simeon to them.
24. The servant took the brothers into the house. He gave them water so that they could wash their feet, and he fed their donkeys.
