¹⁰ And they said to him, No, my lord, but your servants have come to buy food.

²⁷ And one opened his sack to give fodder to his ass in the camp, and he saw his silver. And, behold! It was in the mouth of his sack!

⁷ And they said, The man keenly asked about us and about our kindred, saying, is our father still alive? Is there a brother to you? And we answered him according to these words. Could we know certainly that he would say, Bring down your brother?

²⁷ And one opened his sack to give fodder to his ass in the camp, and he saw his silver. And, behold! It was in the mouth of his sack! ²⁸ And he said to his brothers, My silver has been put back, and also look in my sack. And their hearts went, and they were each terrified, saying to his brother, What is this God has done to us? ²⁹ And they came to their father Jacob to the land of Canaan. And they told him all that met them, saying, ³⁰ The man, the lord of the land, spoke harsh things to us and considered us as spies in the land. ³¹ And we said to him, We are honest; we are not spies. ³² We are twelve brothers, sons of our father; the one is not, and the youngest is with our father today in the land of Canaan. ³³ And the man, the lord of the land, said to us, By this I shall know that you are honest; leave your one brother with me, and take and go for the famine of your houses. ³⁴ And bring your youngest brother to me, and I may know that you are not spies, but you are honest. I will give your brother to you and you may travel in the land. ³⁵ And it happened. They were emptying their sacks, and, behold, each one's bundle of silver was in his sack; and they saw the bundles of their silver, and they were afraid.

¹² And take double silver in your hand, and the silver they put back in the mouth of your sacks, take back in your hand; perhaps it was an oversight.

¹⁵ And the men took this present, and they took double silver in their hand, and Benjamin. And they rose up and went down to Egypt and stood before Joseph.

⁵ Set your way of life without money-loving, being satisfied with present things; for He has said, "Not at all will I leave you, not at all will I forsake you," never! Deut. 31:6

¹⁸ Pray for us, for we are persuaded that we have a good conscience, in all things wishing to behave well.

¹² having your behavior good among the nations, in that which they speak against you as evildoers; by observing your good works, they may glorify God in a day of visitation.

¹⁶ having a good conscience, that while they speak against you as evildoers, they may be shamed, those falsely accusing your good behavior in Christ.

²³ And Jehovah said to him, Peace to you, fear not. You shall not die.

²⁰ And the old man said, Peace to you. Only, all that you lack shall be on me. Only, do not spend the night in the open.

⁶ And say this, Long life and peace to you! And peace to your house, and peace to all that you have.

¹⁸ And the Spirit enwrapped Amasai, the head of the thirty: To you, O David, and with you, O son of Jesse, peace! Peace to you, and peace to your helpers, for your God has helped you. And David received them, and put them among the heads of the band.

¹⁷ The message the king sent to Rehum the master of counsel, and to Shimshai the scribe, and to the rest of their associates who dwell in Samaria, and to the rest Beyond the River: Peace! And now,

⁵ And into whatever house you may enter, first say, Peace to this house.

³⁶ And as they were telling these things, Jesus Himself stood in their midst, and said to them, Peace to you!

²⁷ I leave peace to you; My peace I give to you. Not as the world gives I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, nor let it be timid.

¹⁹ Then it being evening on that day, the first of the sabbaths, and the doors having been locked where the disciples were assembled, because of fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in the midst and said to them, Peace to you.

And taking a towel, He girded Himself. ⁵ Then He put water into the basin and began to wash the feet of the disciples, and to wipe off with the towel with which He was girded. ⁶ He then came to Simon Peter. And that one said to Him, Lord, do You wash my feet? ⁷ Jesus answered and said to him, What I am doing, you do not yet know. But you will know after these things. ⁸ Peter said to Him, You may in no way wash my feet to the age. Jesus answered him, Unless I wash you, you have no part with Me. ⁹ Simon Peter said to Him, Lord, not my feet only, but also the hands and the head. ¹⁰ Jesus said to him, The one having been bathed has no need other than to wash the feet, but is wholly clean. And you are clean, but not all. ¹¹ For He knew the one betraying Him. For this reason He said, You are not all clean. ¹² Then when He had washed their feet and had taken His garments, reclining again, He said to them, Do you know what I have done to you? ¹³ You call Me the Teacher, and, the Lord. And you say well, for I AM. ¹⁴ If then I washed your feet, the Lord and the Teacher, you also ought to wash the feet of one another. ¹⁵ For I gave you an example, that as I did to you, you also should do. ¹⁶ Truly, truly, I say to you, a slave is not greater than his lord, nor a messenger greater than the one sending him. ¹⁷ If you know these things, blessed are you if you do them.

¹¹ And their father Israel said to them, If it be so, then do this: take from the produce of the land in your vessels and bring down a present to the man, a little balm, and a little honey, spices, and myrrh, nuts and almonds.

And, behold, your sheaves came around and bowed themselves to my sheaf. ⁸ And his brothers said to him, Shall you indeed reign over us, or shall you really rule over us? And they hated him still more because of his dreams, and because of his words. ⁹ And he dreamed still another dream, and told it to his brothers. And he said, Behold, I have dreamed another dream: And, behold, the sun and the moon and the eleven stars were bowing themselves to me. ¹⁰ And he told it to his father, and to his brothers. And his father rebuked him, and said to him, What is this dream which you have dreamed? Shall we indeed come to bow ourselves to the earth to you, I, your mother, and your brothers?

¹⁹ And they said, each to his brother, Behold, this master of dreams is coming. ²⁰ And, Come now, and let us kill him, and throw him into one of the pits. And let us say, An evil beast has eaten him. And let us see what will become of his dreams.

¹⁷ And it happened, when she had hard labor in her bearing, even the midwife said to her, Do not fear, for this also is a son for you. ¹⁸ And it happened, when her soul was going forth (for she died) even she called his name Benoni. But his father called him Benjamin.

⁸ And now you did not send me here, but God. And He has placed me for a father to Pharaoh, and for a lord in all his house, and a ruler in all the land of Egypt.

²⁵ Jehovah cause His face to shine on you, and be gracious to you;

²⁹ And Joseph prepared his chariot and went up to meet his father Israel to Goshen. And he appeared to him, and fell on his neck and wept on his neck a long time.

²⁶ And the woman whose son was the living one said to the king (for her womb yearned over her son) yea, she said, O my lord, give her the living child, and do not at all put it to death. And this one said, Let it be neither yours or mine, divide it .

And it was a cave, and a stone was lying on it.

⁸ For God is my witness how I long after you all in the bowels of Jesus Christ.

¹ Then if there is any comfort in Christ, if any consolation of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any tendernesses and compassions,

¹² Then put on as the elect of God, holy and beloved, tender feelings of compassions, kindness, humility, meekness, long-suffering,
