Genesis 43:26 (BSB)
Context Reading
24And the steward took the men into Joseph’s house, gave them water to wash their feet, and provided food for their donkeys. 25Since the brothers had been told that they were going to eat a meal there, they prepared their gift for Joseph’s arrival at noon. 26When Joseph came home, they presented him with the gifts they had brought, and they bowed to the ground before him. 27He asked if they were well, and then he asked, “How is your elderly father you told me about? Is he still alive?” 28“Your servant our father is well,” they answered. “He is still alive.” And they bowed down to honor him.
