Genesis 43:26-28

Good News Translation

²⁶ When Joseph got home, they took the gifts into the house to him and bowed down to the ground before him. ²⁷ He asked about their health and then said, “You told me about your old father—how is he? Is he still alive and well?”

²⁸ They answered, “Your humble servant, our father, is still alive and well.” And they knelt and bowed down before him.
