28And he said to his brothers, My money has been given back: it is in my bag; then their hearts became full of fear, and turning to one another they said, What is this which God has done to us?
29So when they came to Jacob their father, in the land of Canaan, they gave him an account of all their experiences, saying,
30The man who is the ruler of the country was rough with us and put us in prison, saying that we had come with a secret evil purpose.
31And we said to him, We are true men, we have no evil designs;
32We are twelve brothers, sons of our father; one is dead, and the youngest is now with our father in the land of Canaan.
33And the ruler of the land said, In this way I may be certain that you are true men; let one of you be kept here with me, while you go and take grain for the needs of your families;
34And come back to me with your youngest brother: then I will be certain that you are true men, and I will give your brother back to you and let you do trade in the land.
