When Ioseph saw Ben Iamin with them, he said to the ruler
of his house: bring these men home, and slay and make ready: for
they shall dine with me at noon. And the man did as Ioseph bade,
and brought them in to Ioseph's house. When they were brought to
Ioseph's house, they were afraid, and said: because of the money
that came in our sacks' mouths at the first time, are we brought,
to pick a quarrel with us and to lay some thing to our charge: to
bring us in bondage and our asses also. Therefore came they to the
man that was the ruler over Ioseph's house, and communed with him
at the door and said: Sir, we came hither at the first time to buy
food, and as we came to an inn and opened our sacks: behold, every
man's money was in his sack with full weight: But we have brought
it again with us, and other money have we brought also in our
hands, to buy food, but we can not tell who put our money in our
sacks. And he said: be of good cheer, fear not: Your God and the
God of your fathers hath put you that treasure in your sacks, for
I had your money. And he brought Simeon out to them and led them
into Ioseph's house, and gave them water to wash their feet, and
gave their asses provender: And they made ready their present
against Ioseph came at noon, for they heard say that they should
dine there.
