Joseph commanded the servant in charge of his house, "Fill the men's sacks with as much food as they can carry, and put each man's money in the top of his sack.

Put my silver cup in the top of the youngest brother's sack, together with the money for his grain." He did as he was told.

The LORD says, "Come, everyone who is thirsty--- here is water! Come, you that have no money--- buy grain and eat! Come! Buy wine and milk--- it will cost you nothing!

Jacob's sons did as they were told. Joseph gave them wagons, as the king had ordered, and food for the trip.

Instead, be concerned above everything else with the Kingdom of God and with what he requires of you, and he will provide you with all these other things.

But now I tell you: love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you,

If someone has done you wrong, do not repay him with a wrong. Try to do what everyone considers to be good.

Never take revenge, my friends, but instead let God's anger do it. For the scripture says, "I will take revenge, I will pay back, says the Lord."

Do not let evil defeat you; instead, conquer evil with good.

Do not pay back evil with evil or cursing with cursing; instead, pay back with a blessing, because a blessing is what God promised to give you when he called you.
