rsv@Genesis:42:27 @ And as one of them opened his sack to give his ass provender at the lodging place, he saw his money in the mouth of his sack;
rsv@Genesis:42:28 @ and he said to his brothers, "My money has been put back; here it is in the mouth of my sack!" At this their hearts failed them, and they turned trembling to one another, saying, "What is this that God has done to us?"
rsv@Genesis:42:29 @ When they came to Jacob their father in the land of Canaan, they told him all that had befallen them, saying,
rsv@Genesis:42:30 @ "The man, the lord of the land, spoke roughly to us, and took us to be spies of the land.
rsv@Genesis:42:31 @ But we said to him, `We are honest men, we are not spies;
rsv@Genesis:42:32 @ we are twelve brothers, sons of our father; one is no more, and the youngest is this day with our father in the land of Canaan.'
rsv@Genesis:42:33 @ Then the man, the lord of the land, said to us, `By this I shall know that you are honest men: leave one of your brothers with me, and take grain for the famine of your households, and go your way.
rsv@Genesis:42:34 @ Bring your youngest brother to me; then I shall know that you are not spies but honest men, and I will deliver to you your brother, and you shall trade in the land.'"
rsv@Genesis:42:35 @ As they emptied their sacks, behold, every man's bundle of money was in his sack; and when they and their father saw their bundles of money, they were dismayed.
