Genesis 43:16-18
1599 Geneva Bible
16 And when Joseph saw Benjamin with them, he said [a]to his steward, Bring these men home and kill meat, and make ready: for the men shall eat with me at noon.
17 And the men did as Joseph bade, and brought the men unto Joseph’s house.
18 Now when the men were brought into Joseph’s house, they were [b]afraid, and said, Because of the money, that came in our sack’s mouths at the first time, are we brought, that he may [c]pick a quarrel against us, and [d]lay something to our charge, and bring us in bondage and our asses.
