Genesis 42:1-6
1Now JacobH3290 sawH7200 that there was grainH7668 in EgyptH4714, and JacobH3290 saidH559 unto his sonsH1121, WhyH4100 do ye lookH7200 one upon another?
2And he saidH559, Behold, I have heardH8085 that there is grainH7668 in EgyptH4714: get you downH3381 thither, and buyH7666 for us from thence; that we may liveH2421, and not dieH4191.
3And Joseph’s tenH6235 brethren wentH3381 downH3381 to buyH7666 grainH1250 from EgyptH4714.
4But BenjaminH1144, Joseph’s brotherH251, JacobH3290 sentH7971 not with his brethren; for he saidH559, LestH6435 peradventure harmH611 befall him.
5And the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 cameH935 to buyH7666 among those that cameH935: for the famineH7458 wasH1961 in the landH776 of CanaanH3667.
6And JosephH3130 was the governor over the landH776; he it was that soldH7666 to all the peopleH5971 of the landH776. And Joseph’s brethren cameH935, and bowedH7812 downH7812 themselves to him with their facesH639 to the earthH776.
