26 When Joseph came home, they presented him with the gifts they had brought inside,[a] and they bowed down to the ground before him. 27 He asked them how they were doing.[b] Then he said, “Is your aging father well, the one you spoke about? Is he still alive?” 28 “Your servant our father is well,” they replied. “He is still alive.” They bowed down in humility.[c]
