Genesis 43:12

43:12 Take double the money with you; ¹  you must take back ²  the money that was returned in the mouths of your sacks – perhaps it was an oversight.

Genesis 43:21-22

43:21 But when we came to the place where we spent the night, we opened our sacks and each of us found his money – the full amount ³  – in the mouth of his sack. So we have returned it. ⁴  43:22 We have brought additional money with us to buy food. We do not know who put the money in our sacks!”

¹ tn Heb “in your hand.”

² tn Heb “take back in your hand.” The imperfect verbal form probably has an injunctive or obligatory force here, since Jacob is instructing his sons.

³ tn Heb “in its weight.”

⁴ tn Heb “brought it back in our hand.”
