Genesis 43:28-30
1599 Geneva Bible
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 [a]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.
30 And Joseph made haste (for his [b]affection was inflamed toward his brother, and sought where to weep) and entered into his chamber and wept there.

New International Version
28 They replied, “Your servant our father(A) is still alive and well.” And they bowed down,(B) prostrating themselves before him.(C)
29 As he looked about and saw his brother Benjamin, his own mother’s son,(D) he asked, “Is this your youngest brother, the one you told me about?”(E) And he said, “God be gracious to you,(F) my son.” 30 Deeply moved(G) at the sight of his brother, Joseph hurried out and looked for a place to weep. He went into his private room and wept(H) there.
