17 He did that which was commanded him, and brought the men into the house.📜💬📚
18 And there being sore afraid, they said one to another: because of the money which we carried back the first time in our sacks, we are brought in: that he may turn upon us a false accusation, and forcibly bring both us and our asses into bondage.📜💬📚

20 They spake: Sir, we desire thee to hear us. Now once before we came down to buy provision:📜💬📚
21 Which being bought, when we were come to the Inn, we opened our sacks, and found our money in the mouths of the sacks: which we have now brought again in the same weight.📜💬📚
22 But we have brought other money besides, to buy the things that are necessary for us: our conscience is not privy, who put it in our bags.📜💬📚
