Genesis 43:30-34

English Standard Version

³⁰ Then Joseph hurried out, for ^(A)his compassion grew warm for his brother, and he sought a place to weep. And he entered his chamber and ^(B)wept there. ³¹ Then he washed his face and came out. And ^(C)controlling himself he said, “Serve the food.” ³² They served him by himself, and them by themselves, and the Egyptians who ate with him by themselves, because the Egyptians could not eat with the Hebrews, for that is ^(D)an abomination to the Egyptians. ³³ And they sat before him, the firstborn according to his birthright and the youngest according to his youth. And the men looked at one another in amazement. ^34 (E)Portions were taken to them from Joseph's table, but Benjamin's portion was ^(F)five times as much as any of theirs. And they drank and were merry^[a] with him.
