1	Now when Jacob saw# that there was corn in Egypt, Jacob said# unto his sons, Why do ye look# one upon another?
			2	And he said# , Behold, I have heard# that there is corn in Egypt: get you down# thither, and buy# for us from thence; that we may live# , and not die# .
			3	And Joseph's ten brethren went down# to buy# corn in Egypt.
			4	But Benjamin, Joseph's brother, Jacob sent# not with his brethren; for he said# , Lest peradventure mischief befall him# .
			5	And the sons of Israel came# to buy# corn among those that came# : for the famine was in the land of Canaan.
			6	And Joseph was the governor over the land, and he it was that sold# to all the people of the land: and Joseph's brethren came# , and bowed down# themselves before him with their faces to the earth.
			7	And Joseph saw# his brethren, and he knew# them, but made himself strange# unto them, and spake# roughly unto them; and he said# unto them, Whence come# ye? And they said# , From the land of Canaan to buy# food. [roughly...: Heb. hard things with them]
			8	And Joseph knew# his brethren, but they knew# not him.
			9	And Joseph remembered# the dreams which he dreamed# of them, and said# unto them, Ye are spies# ; to see# the nakedness of the land ye are come# .
			10	And they said# unto him, Nay, my lord, but to buy# food are thy servants come# .
			11	We are all one man's sons; we are true men , thy servants are no spies# .
			12	And he said# unto them, Nay, but to see# the nakedness of the land ye are come# .
			13	And they said# , Thy servants are twelve# brethren, the sons of one man in the land of Canaan; and, behold, the youngest is this day with our father, and one is not.
			14	And Joseph said# unto them, That is it that I spake# unto you, saying# , Ye are spies# :
			15	Hereby ye shall be proved# : By the life of Pharaoh ye shall not go forth# hence, except your youngest brother come# hither.
			16	Send# one of you, and let him fetch# your brother, and ye shall be kept in prison# , that your words may be proved# , whether there be any truth in you: or else by the life of Pharaoh surely ye are spies# . [kept...: Heb. bound]
			17	And he put them all together# into ward three days. [put: Heb. gathered]
			18	And Joseph said# unto them the third day, This do# , and live# ; for I fear God:
			19	If ye be true men , let one of your brethren be bound# in the house of your prison: go# ye, carry# corn for the famine of your houses:
			20	But bring# your youngest brother unto me; so shall your words be verified# , and ye shall not die# . And they did# so.
			21	And they said# one to another, We are verily guilty concerning our brother, in that we saw# the anguish of his soul, when he besought# us, and we would not hear# ; therefore is this distress come# upon us.
			22	And Reuben answered# them, saying# , Spake I# not unto you, saying# , Do not sin# against the child; and ye would not hear# ? therefore, behold, also his blood is required# .
			23	And they knew# not that Joseph understood# them ; for he spake unto them by an interpreter# . [he spake...: Heb. an interpreter was between them]
			24	And he turned himself about# from them, and wept# ; and returned to them again# , and communed# with them, and took# from them Simeon, and bound# him before their eyes.
			25	Then Joseph commanded# to fill# their sacks with corn, and to restore# every man's money into his sack, and to give# them provision for the way: and thus did he# unto them.
			26	And they laded# their asses with the corn, and departed# thence.
			27	And as one of them opened# his sack to give# his ass provender in the inn, he espied# his money; for, behold, it was in his sack's mouth.
			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? [failed...: Heb. went forth]
			29	And they came# unto Jacob their father unto the land of Canaan, and told# him all that befell# unto them; saying# ,
			30	The man, who is the lord of the land, spake# roughly to us, and took# us for spies# of the country. [roughly...: Heb. with us hard things]
			31	And we said# unto him, We are true men ; we are no spies# :
			32	We be twelve# brethren, sons of our father; one is not, and the youngest is this day with our father in the land of Canaan.
			33	And the man, the lord of the country, said# unto us, Hereby shall I know# that ye are true men ; leave# one of your brethren here with me, and take# food for the famine of your households, and be gone# :
			34	And bring# your youngest brother unto me: then shall I know# that ye are no spies# , but that ye are true men: so will I deliver# you your brother, and ye shall traffick# in the land.
			35	And it came to pass as they emptied# their sacks, that, behold, every man's bundle of money was in his sack: and when both they and their father saw# the bundles of money, they were afraid# .
			36	And Jacob their father said# unto them, Me have ye bereaved# of my children : Joseph is not, and Simeon is not, and ye will take# Benjamin away : all these things are against me.
			37	And Reuben spake# unto his father, saying# , Slay# my two sons, if I bring# him not to thee: deliver# him into my hand, and I will bring him to thee again# .
			38	And he said# , My son shall not go down# with you; for his brother is dead# , and he is left# alone: if mischief befall# him by the way in the which ye go# , then shall ye bring down# my gray hairs with sorrow to the grave.
