17 So the man did as Joseph said and took them to Joseph’s house.
18 The men were frightened, because they had been brought to Joseph’s house. They thought, “We’ve been brought here because of the money that was put back into our sacks the first time. They’re going to attack us, overpower us, take our donkeys, and make us slaves.”
19 So they came to the man in charge of Joseph’s house and spoke to him at the door.
20 “Please, sir,” they said, “we came here to buy food once before.
21 When we stopped for the night, we opened our sacks, and each man found all of his money inside. So we brought it back with us.
22 We also brought more money to buy food. We have no idea who put our money back in our sacks.”
23 “It’s alright,” he said. “Don’t be afraid! Your God, the God of your father, must have given you treasure in your sacks. I received your money.” Then he brought Simeon out to them.
