Genesis 43:12

The Return to Egypt with Benjamin

11Then their father Israel said to them, “If it must be so, then do this: Put some of the best products of the land in your packs and carry them down as a gift for the man—a little balm and a little honey, spices and myrrh, pistachios and almonds.12Take double the silver with you so that you may return the silver that was put back into the mouths of your sacks. Perhaps it was a mistake.13Take your brother as well, and return to the man at once.
