to all the people of the land. Joseph's brothers came, and bowed themselves down to him with their faces to the earth. 042:007 Joseph saw his brothers, and he recognized them, but acted like a stranger to them, and spoke roughly with them. He said to them, "Where did you come from?" They said, "From the land of Canaan to buy food." 042:008 Joseph recognized his brothers, but they didn't recognize him. 042:009 Joseph remembered the dreams which he dreamed about them, and said to them, "You are spies! You have come to see the nakedness of the land." 042:010 They said to him, "No, my lord, but your servants have come to buy food. 042:011 We are all one man's sons; we are honest men. Your servants are not spies." 042:012 He said to them, "No, but you have come to see the nakedness of the land." 042:013 They said, "We, your servants, are twelve brothers, the sons of one man in the land of Canaan; and behold, the youngest is this day with our father, and one is no more." 042:014 Joseph said to them, "It is like I told you, saying, 'You are spies.' 042:015 By this you shall be tested.

They did so. 042:021 They said one to another, "We are certainly guilty concerning our brother, in that we saw the distress of his soul, when he begged us, and we wouldn't listen. Therefore this distress has come upon us." 042:022 Reuben answered them, saying, "Didn't I tell you, saying, 'Don't sin against the child,' and you wouldn't listen? Therefore also, behold, his blood is required." 042:023 They didn't know that Joseph understood them; for there was an interpreter between them. 042:024 He turned himself away from them, and wept. Then he returned to them, and spoke to them, and took Simeon from among them, and bound him before their eyes. 042:025 Then Joseph gave a command to fill their bags with grain, and to restore every man's money into his sack, and to give them food for the way. So it was done to them. 042:026 They loaded their donkeys with their grain, and departed from there. 042:027 As one of them opened his sack to give his donkey food in the
