Genesis 43:31-33
King James Version
31 And he washed his face, and went out, and refrained himself, and said, Set on bread.
32 And they set on for him by himself, and for them by themselves, and for the Egyptians, which did eat with him, by themselves: because the Egyptians might not eat bread with the Hebrews; for that is an abomination unto the Egyptians.
33 And they sat before him, the firstborn according to his birthright, and the youngest according to his youth: and the men marvelled one at another.

31 Then he washed his face and came out; and he (A)controlled himself and said, “[a]Serve the meal.” 32 Then they served him by himself, and [b]Joseph’s brothers by themselves, and the Egyptians who ate with him by themselves; because the Egyptians could not eat bread with the Hebrews, for that is an (B)abomination to the Egyptians. 33 Now they [c]were seated before him, from (C)the firstborn according to his birthright to the youngest according to his youth, and the men looked at one another in astonishment.
