Genesis - ch 43 v 1 - 20

  1. In the mean time the famine was heavy upon all the land.
  2. And when they had eaten up all the corn, which they had brought out of Egypt, Jacob said to his sons: Go again and buy us a little food.
  3. Juda answered: The man declared unto us with the atteststion of an oath, saying: You shall not see my face, unless you bring your youngest brother with you.
  4. If therefore thou wilt send him with us, we will set out together, and will buy necessaries for thee.
  5. But if thou wilt not, we will not go: for the man, as we have often said, declared unto us, saying: You shall not see my face without your youngest brother.
  6. Israel said to them: You have done this for my misery in that you told him you had also another brother.
  7. But they answered: The man asked us in order concerning our kindred: if our father lived: if we had a brother: and we answered him regularly, according to what he demanded: Bring hither your brother with you?
  8. And Juda said to his father: Send the bou with me, that we may set forward, and may live: lest both we and our children perish.
  9. I take the boy upon me, require him at my hand: unless I bring him again, and restore him to thee, I will be guilty of sin against thee for ever.
  10. If delay had not been made, we had been here again the second time.
  11. Then Israel said to them: If it must needs be so, do what you will: take of the best fruits of the land in your vessels, and carry down presents to the man, a little balm, and honey, and storax, myrrh, turpentine, and almonds.
  12. And take with you double money, and carry back what you found in your sacks, lest perhaps it was done by mistake.
  13. And take also your brother, and go to the man.
  14. And may my almighty Bod make him favourable to you; and send back with you your brother, whom he keepeth, and this Benjamin: and as for me I shall be desolate without children.
  15. So the men took the presents, and double money, and Benjamin: and went down into Egypt, and stood before Joseph.
  16. And when he had seen them, and Benjamin with them, he commanded the steward of his house, saying: Bring in the men into the house, and kill victims, and prepare a feast: because they shall eat with me at noon.
  17. He did as he was commanded, and brought the men into the house.\
  18. And they being much afraid, said there one to another: Because of the money, which we carried back the first time in our sacks, we are brought in: that he may bring upon us a false accusation, and by violence make slaves of us and our asses.
  19. Wherefore going up to the steward of the house, at the door,
  20. They said: Sir, we desire thee to hear us: We came down once before to buy food:
