Genesis 42:25-38 - Joseph's Brothers Return To Canaan
25 and commanded to fill their sacks with corn, and to put every man's money in his sack, and to give them victuals to spend by the way. And so it was done to them. 26 And they laded their asses with the corn and departed thence.
27 And as one of them opened his sack, for to give his ass provender in the Inn, he spied his money in his sack's mouth. 28 And he said unto his brethren, "My money is restored me again, and is even in my sack's mouth." Then their hearts failed them, and were astonished and said one to another, "How cometh it that God dealeth thus with us?"
29 And they came unto Jacob their father unto the land of Canaan, and told him all that had happened them, saying, 30 "The lord of the land spake roughly to us, and took us for spies to search the country. 31 And we said unto him, 'We mean truly and are no spies. 32 We be twelve brethren sons of our father, one is away, and the youngest is now with our father in the land of Canaan.' 33 And the lord of the country said unto us, 'Hereby shall I know if ye mean truly: leave one of your brethren here with me, and take food necessary for your households and get you away, 34 and bring your youngest brother unto me; And thereby shall I know that ye are no spies, but mean truly: So will I deliver you your brother again, and ye shall occupy in the land.'"
35 And as they emptied their sacks, behold: every man's bundle of money was in his sack. And when both they and their father saw the bundles of money, they were afraid.
36 And Jacob their father said unto them, "Me have ye robbed of my children: Joseph is away, and Simeon is away, and ye will take Benjamin away. All these things fall upon me." 37 Reuben answered his father, saying, "Slay my two sons, if I bring him not to thee again. Deliver him therefore to my hand, and I will bring him to thee again."
38 And he said, "My son shall not go down with you. For his brother is dead, and he is left alone. Moreover, some misfortune might happen upon him by the way which ye go. And so should ye bring my gray head with sorrow unto the grave."
