19If you are honest men, then let one of your brothers be bound in your prison-house; but you go, carry grain for the famine of your houses.
20Bring your youngest brother to me; so will your words be verified, and you won`t die." They did so.
21They said one to another, "We are most assuredly guilty concerning our brother, in that we saw the distress of his soul, when he begged us, and we wouldn`t listen. Therefore this distress has come on us."
22Reuben answered them, saying, "Didn`t I tell you, saying, `Don`t sin against the child,` and you wouldn`t listen? Therefore also, behold, his blood is required."
23They didn`t know that Joseph understood them; for there was an interpreter between them.
24He turned himself about from them, and wept, and he returned to them, and spoke to them, and took Simeon from among them, and bound him before their eyes.
25Then Joseph commanded to fill their vessels with grain, and to restore every man`s money into his sack, and to give them provisions for the way. Thus was it done to them.
