27 And he asked them of their [a]prosperity, and said, Is your father the old man, of whom ye told me, in good health? is he yet alive?
28 Who answered, Thy servant our father is in good health, he is yet alive: and they bowed down, and made obeisance.
29 And he lifting up his eyes, beheld his brother Benjamin, his [b]mother’s son, and said, Is this your younger brother of whom ye told me? And he said, God be merciful unto thee, my son.
