Genesis 43:28-30
Living Bible
28 “Yes,” they replied. “He is alive and well.” Then again they bowed before him.
29 Looking at his brother Benjamin,[a] he asked, “Is this your youngest brother, the one you told me about? How are you, my son? God be gracious to you.” 30 Then Joseph made a hasty exit, for he was overcome with love for his brother and had to go out and cry. Going into his bedroom, he wept there.
