1
Now when Jacob [3290] saw [7200] that there was [3426] corn [7668] in Egypt, [4714] Jacob [3290] said [0559] unto his sons, [1121] Why do ye look [7200] one upon another?
2
And he said, [0559] Behold, I have heard [8085] that there is [3426] corn [7668] in Egypt: [4714] get you down [3381] thither, and buy [7666] for us from thence; that we may live, [2421] and not die. [4191]
3
And Joseph's [3130] ten [6235] brethren [0251] went down [3381] to buy [7666] corn [1250] in Egypt. [4714]
4
But Benjamin, [1144] Joseph's [3130] brother, [0251] Jacob [3290] sent [7971] not with his brethren; [0251] for he said, [0559] Lest peradventure [6435] mischief [0611] befall [7122] him.
5
And the sons [1121] of Israel [3478] came [0935] to buy [7666] [corn] among [8432] those that came: [0935] for the famine [7458] was in the land [0776] of Canaan. [3667]
6
And Joseph [3130] [was] the governor [7989] over the land, [0776] [and] he [it was] that sold [7666] to all the people [5971] of the land: [0776] and Joseph's [3130] brethren [0251] came, [0935] and bowed down [7812] themselves before him [with] their faces [0639] to the earth. [0776]
7
And Joseph [3130] saw [7200] his brethren, [0251] and he knew [5234] them, but made himself strange [5234] unto them, and spake [1696] roughly [7186] unto them; and he said [0559] unto them, Whence [0370] come [0935] ye? And they said, [0559] From the land [0776] of Canaan [3667] to buy [7666] food. [0400]
8
And Joseph [3130] knew [5234] his brethren, [0251] but they knew [5234] not him.
9
And Joseph [3130] remembered [2142] the dreams [2472] which he dreamed [2492] of them, and said [0559] unto them, Ye [0859] [are] spies; [7270] to see [7200] the nakedness [6172] of the land [0776] ye are come. [0935]
10
And they said [0559] unto him, Nay, my lord, [0113] but to buy [7666] food [0400] are thy servants [5650] come. [0935]
11
We [5168] [are] all one [0259] man's [0376] sons; [1121] we [are] true [3651] [men], thy servants [5650] are no spies. [7270]
12
And he said [0559] unto them, Nay, but to see [7200] the nakedness [6172] of the land [0776] ye are come. [0935]
13
And they said, [0559] Thy servants [5650] [are] twelve [8147] [6240] brethren, [0251] the sons [1121] of one [0259] man [0376] in the land [0776] of Canaan; [3667] and, behold, the youngest [6996] [is] this day [3117] with our father, [0001] and one [0259] [is] not.
14
And Joseph [3130] said [0559] unto them, That [is it] that I spake [1696] unto you, saying, [0559] Ye [are] spies: [7270]
15
Hereby [2063] ye shall be proved: [0974] By the life [2416] of Pharaoh [6547] ye shall not go forth [3318] hence, except your youngest [6996] brother [0251] come [0935] hither.
16
Send [7971] one [0259] of you, and let him fetch [3947] your brother, [0251] and ye shall be kept [0631] in prison, that your words [1697] may be proved, [0974] whether [there be any] truth [0571] in you: [0854] or else [3808] by the life [2416] of Pharaoh [6547] surely ye [are] spies. [7270]
17
And he put them all together [0622] into ward [4929] three [7969] days. [3117]
18
And Joseph [3130] said [0559] unto them the third [7992] day, [3117] This do, [6213] and live; [2421] [for] I fear [3373] God: [0430]
19
If ye [0859] [be] true [3651] [men], let one [0259] of your brethren [0251] be bound [0631] in the house [1004] of your prison: [4929] go [3212] ye, carry [0935] corn [7668] for the famine [7459] of your houses: [1004]
20
But bring [0935] your youngest [6996] brother [0251] unto me; so shall your words [1697] be verified, [0539] and ye shall not die. [4191] And they did [6213] so.
21
And they said [0559] one [0376] to another, [0251] We [are] verily [0061] guilty [0818] concerning our brother, [0251] in that [0834] we saw [7200] the anguish [6869] of his soul, [5315] when he besought [2603] us, and we would not hear; [8085] therefore is this distress [6869] come [0935] upon us.
22
And Reuben [7205] answered [6030] them, saying, [0559] Spake [0559] I not unto you, saying, [0559] Do not sin [2398] against the child; [3206] and ye would not hear? [8085] therefore, behold, also his blood [1818] is required. [1875]
23
And they knew [3045] not that Joseph [3130] understood [8085] [them]; for he spake unto them by an interpreter. [3887]
24
And he turned himself about [5437] from them, and wept; [1058] and returned [7725] to them again, and communed [1696] with them, and took [3947] from them Simeon, [8095] and bound [0631] him before their eyes. [5869]
25
Then Joseph [3130] commanded [6680] to fill [4390] their sacks [3627] with corn, [1250] and to restore [7725] every man's [0376] money [3701] into his sack, [8242] and to give [5414] them provision [6720] for the way: [1870] and thus [3651] did [6213] he unto them.
26
And they laded [5375] their asses [2543] with the corn, [7668] and departed [3212] thence.
27
And as one [0259] of them opened [6605] his sack [8242] to give [5414] his ass [2543] provender [4554] in the inn, [4411] he espied [7200] his money; [3701] for, behold, it [was] in his sack's [0572] mouth. [6310]
28
And he said [0559] unto his brethren, [0251] My money [3701] is restored; [7725] and, lo, [2009] [it is] even in my sack: [0572] and their heart [3820] failed [3318] [them], and they were afraid, [2729] saying [0559] one [0376] to another, [0251] What [is] this [that] God [0430] hath done [6213] unto us?
29
And they came [0935] unto Jacob [3290] their father [0001] unto the land [0776] of Canaan, [3667] and told [5046] him all that befell [7136] unto them; saying, [0559]
30
The man, [0376] [who is] the lord [0113] of the land, [0776] spake [1696] roughly [7186] to us, and took [5414] us for spies [7270] of the country. [0776]
31
And we said [0559] unto him, We [are] true [3651] [men]; we are no spies: [7270]
32
We [be] twelve [6240] [8147] brethren, [0251] sons [1121] of our father; [0001] one [0259] [is] not, and the youngest [6996] [is] this day [3117] with our father [0001] in the land [0776] of Canaan. [3667]
33
And the man, [0376] the lord [0113] of the country, [0776] said [0559] unto us, Hereby shall I know [3045] that ye [are] true [3651] [men]; leave [3240] one [0259] of your brethren [0251] [here] with me, and take [3947] [food for] the famine [7459] of your households, [1004] and be gone: [3212]
34
And bring [0935] your youngest [6996] brother [0251] unto me: then shall I know [3045] that ye [are] no spies, [7270] but [that] ye [are] true [3651] [men: so] will I deliver [5414] you your brother, [0251] and ye shall traffick [5503] in the land. [0776]
35
And it came to pass as they emptied [7324] their sacks, [8242] that, behold, every man's [0376] bundle [6872] of money [3701] [was] in his sack: [8242] and when [both] they and their father [0001] saw [7200] the bundles [6872] of money, [3701] they were afraid. [3372]
36
And Jacob [3290] their father [0001] said [0559] unto them, Me have ye bereaved [7921] [of my children]: Joseph [3130] [is] not, and Simeon [8095] [is] not, and ye will take [3947] Benjamin [1144] [away]: all these things are against me.
37
And Reuben [7205] spake [0559] unto his father, [0001] saying, [0559] Slay [4191] my two [8147] sons, [1121] if I bring [0935] him not to thee: deliver [5414] him into my hand, [3027] and I will bring him to thee again. [7725]
38
And he said, [0559] My son [1121] shall not go down [3381] with you; for his brother [0251] is dead, [4191] and he is left [7604] alone: if mischief [0611] befall [7122] him by the way [1870] in the which ye go, [3212] then shall ye bring down [3381] my gray hairs [7872] with sorrow [3015] to the grave.
