— Genesis 43:23, Bible in Basic English
““Everything is fine,” the man in charge of Joseph’s household told them.“Don’t be afraid. Your God and the God of your father has given you treasure in your sacks. I had your money.” Then he brought Simeon out to them.”
And said, O my lord, we only came down the first time to get food;
And when we came to our night's resting-place, on opening our bags we saw that every man's money was in the mouth of his bag, all our money in full weight: and we have it with us to give it back;
As well as more money, with which to get food: we have no idea who put our money in our bags.
Then the servant said, Peace be with you: have no fear: your God, even the God of your father, has put wealth in your bags for you: I had your money. Then he let Simeon come out to them.
And the servant took them into Joseph's house, and gave them water for washing their feet; and he gave their asses food.
And they got ready the things for Joseph before he came in the middle of the day: for word was given to them that they were to have a meal there.
And when Joseph came in, they gave him the things which they had for him, and went down to the earth before him.
