Than their father Israel said unto them: If it must needs be so now: than do thus / take of the best fruits of the land in your vessels / and bring the man a present / a courtesy balm / and a courtesy of honey / spices and myrrh / dates and almonds. And take as much money more with you. And the money that was brought again in your sacks / take it again with you in your hands / peradventure it was some over sight.

Thus toke they the present and twice so much more money with them / and Ben Jamim. And rose up / went down to Egypt / and presented them self to Joseph. When Joseph saw BenJamin with them / he said to the ruler of his house: bring these men home / and slay and make ready: for they shall dine with me at none. And the man did as Joseph bad / and brought them in to Josephs house.
