Is he yet aliue? 28And they answered, Thy seruant our father is in good health, hee is yet aliue: & they bowed downe their heads, and made obeisance. 29And he lift vp his eyes, and sawe his brother Beniamin, his mothers sonne, and said, Is this your yonger brother, of whom yee spake vnto mee? and he said, God be gracious vnto thee, my sonne. 30And Ioseph made haste: for his bowels did yerne vpon his brother: and he sought where to weepe, and hee entred into his chamber, & wept there.
