Genesis 43 Joseph's brothers have dinner with him

Genesis 43
Joseph's brothers have dinner with him
15 And the men took that gift, and took double money in their hand, and Benjamin; and they rose up, and went down to Egypt, and stood before the face of Joseph.
16 Sell for Joseph Benjamin with them, said what was on his house, Bring these men to the house, and slay, and make ready; because these men shall dine with me at noon.
17 And the man did as Joseph said, and the man took those men to Joseph's house.
18 So they feared those men, because they were brought to Joseph's house, and said, Because of the money that the last time back in our bags, we were brought here, to the criminar and fall upon us, to take us for servants, and our asses.
19 So they came to the man that was over Joseph's house and spoke with him at the door of the house.
20 And said, O! my lord, we came indeed down the first time to buy food;
21 And it came to pass, when we were come for sale, and opened our sacks, behold, every man's money was in the mouth of his sack, our money in full weight; and we have brought it again in our hand;
22 And we have brought other money in our hands to buy food; We do not know who put our money in our bags.
23 And he said, Peace be to you, fear not; your God and the God of your father, hath given you treasure in your sacks; your money came to me. And brought them out to Simeon.
24 Then the man took those men to Joseph's house, and gave them water, and they washed their feet; also gave their asses provender.
25 And prepare gift for Joseph's coming at noon; because they heard that they should eat bread.
26 Come for Joseph to the house, they brought him the present which was in his hand; and bowed to him until the land.
27 And he asked them how they were, and said, Your father, the old man of whom you spoke are you okay? still lives?
28 And they said, Well your servant our father is still alive. And they bowed, and bowed themselves.
29 And he lifted up his eyes, and saw Benjamin his brother son of his mother, and said, this is your youngest brother, of whom you spoke to me? Then he said, God bless you, my son.
30 And Joseph made haste, for his bowels moved to his brother, and sought where to weep; and he entered the chamber, and wept there.
31 And he washed his face and came out; and restrained himself, and said, Set on bread.
32 And they put it to him will part, and they will part, and the Egyptians who ate with him, will part; because the Egyptians can not eat bread with the Hebrews, for that is an abomination to the Egyptians.
33 And they sat before him, the firstborn according to his birthright, and the youngest according to his youth; than the men marveled among themselves.
34 And he brought them the portions that were before him; but Benjamin portion was five times greater than that of any of them. And they drank, and were merry with him.
