Genesis 43:10-12

New Century Version

¹⁰ If we had not wasted all this time, we could have already made two trips.”

¹¹ Then their father Jacob said to them, “If it has to be that way, then do this: Take some of the best foods in our land in your packs. Give them to the man as a gift: some balm, some honey, spices, myrrh, pistachio nuts, and almonds. ¹² Take twice as much money with you this time, and take back the money that was returned to you in your sacks last time. Maybe it was a mistake.
