Holman Christian Standard Bible
But the men were afraid because they were taken to Joseph’s house. They said, “ We have been brought here because of the money that was returned in our bags the first time. They intend to overpower us, seize us, make us slaves, and take our donkeys.”

New American Standard Bible
Now the men were afraid, because they were brought to Joseph's house; and they said, "[It is] because of the money that was returned in our sacks the first time that we are being brought in, that he may seek occasion against us and fall upon us, and take us for slaves with our donkeys."

King James Bible
And the men were afraid, because they were brought into Joseph's house; and they said, Because of the money that was returned in our sacks at the first time are we brought in; that he may seek occasion against us, and fall upon us, and take us for bondmen, and our asses. International Standard Version
The men were terrified as they were being taken to Joseph's palace. "It's because of that money that was returned to our sacks the first time we were brought to him," they reasoned. "He's seeking an excuse to attack us, enslave us, and confiscate our donkeys!"

American Standard Version
And the men were afraid, because they were brought to Joseph's house; and they said, Because of the money that was returned in our sacks at the first time are we brought in; that he may seek occasion against us, and fall upon us, and take us for bondmen, and our asses.

Young's Literal Translation
and the men are afraid because they have been brought into the house of Joseph, and they say, 'For the matter of the money which was put back in our bags at the commencement are we brought in -- to roll himself upon us, and to throw himself on us, and to take us for servants -- our asses also.'Genesis 43:18 • Genesis 43:18 NIV • Genesis 43:18 NLT • Genesis 43:18 ESV • Genesis 43:18 NASB • Genesis 43:18 KJV • Genesis 43:18 Commentaries • Genesis 43:18 Bible Apps • Genesis 43:18 Biblia Paralela • Genesis 43:18 Chinese Bible • Genesis 43:18 French Bible • Genesis 43:18 German Bible
