## Genesis 43:19 in Context (Verses 16–22 KJV)
 
 [16 ](/kjv/genesis/43/16) And when Joseph saw Benjamin with them, he said to the ruler of his house, Bring *these* men home, and slay, and make ready; for *these* men shall dine with me at noon.**
 
 [17 ](/kjv/genesis/43/17) And the man did as Joseph bade; and the man brought the men into Joseph’s house.
 
 [18 ](/kjv/genesis/43/18) And the men were afraid, because they were brought into Joseph’s house; and they said, Because of the money that was returned in our sacks at the first time are we brought in; that he may seek occasion against us, and fall upon us, and take us for bondmen, and our asses.*
 
 [19 ](/kjv/genesis/43/19) And they came near to the steward of Joseph’s house, and they communed with him at the door of the house,
 
 [20 ](/kjv/genesis/43/20) And said, O sir, we came indeed down at the first time to buy food:*
 
 [21 ](/kjv/genesis/43/21) And it came to pass, when we came to the inn, that we opened our sacks, and, behold, *every* man’s money *was* in the mouth of his sack, our money in full weight: and we have brought it again in our hand.
 
 [22 ](/kjv/genesis/43/22) And other money have we brought down in our hands to buy food: we cannot tell who put our money in our sacks.
