Genesis 42:28

And he said unto his brethren, My money is restored; and, lo, it is even in my sack: and their heart failed them, and they were afraid, saying one to another, What is this that God hath done unto us?

KJV

dixit fratribus suis : Reddita est mihi pecunia, en habetur in sacco. Et obstupefacti, turbatique, mutuo dixerunt : Quidnam est hoc quod fecit nobis Deus ?

Vulgate

καὶ εἶπεν τοῖς ἀδελφοῖς αὐτοῦ Ἀπεδόθη μοι τὸ ἀργύριον, καὶ ἰδοὺ τοῦτο ἐν τῷ μαρσίππῳ μου. καὶ ἐξέστη ἡ καρδία αὐτῶν, καὶ ⸂⸆⸃ ἐταράχθησαν πρὸς ⸂⸆⸆⸃ ἀλλήλους λέγοντες Τί τοῦτο ἐποίησεν ὁ θεὸς ἡμῖν;

LXX

And he said unto his brethren, My money is restored; and, lo, it is even in my sack: and their heart failed them, and they turned trembling one to another, saying, What is this that God hath done unto us?
