Genesis 42:6-17
6And JosephH3130, he was the governor over the landH776 — he it was that soldH7666 [the corn] to all the peopleH5971 of the landH776. And Joseph's brethren cameH935 and bowedH7812 downH7812 to him, the faceH639 to the earthH776.
7And JosephH3130 sawH7200 his brethren, and knew them; but he made himself strange to them, and spokeH1696 roughly to them, and saidH559 to them, Whence comeH935 ye? And they saidH559, From the landH776 of CanaanH3667, to buyH7666 foodH400.
8And JosephH3130 knew his brethren, but they did not know him.
9And JosephH3130 rememberedH2142 the dreamsH2472 that he had dreamt of them; and he saidH559 to them, Ye are spiesH7270: to seeH7200 the exposed places of the landH776 ye are comeH935.
10And they saidH559 to him, No, my lordH113; but to buyH7666 foodH400 are thy servantsH5650 comeH935.
11We are all oneH259 man's sonsH1121; we are honest: thy servantsH5650 are not spiesH7270.
12And he saidH559 to them, No; but to seeH7200 the exposed places of the landH776 are ye comeH935.
13And they saidH559, Thy servantsH5650 were twelve brethren, sonsH1121 of oneH259 manH376, in the landH776 of CanaanH3667; and behold, the youngestH6996 is this dayH3117 with our fatherH1, and oneH259 is not.
14And JosephH3130 saidH559 to them, That is it that I have spokenH1696 to you, sayingH559, Ye are spiesH7270.
15By this ye shall be put to the proof: as PharaohH6547 livesH2416, ye shall not goH3318 forthH3318 hence, unless your youngestH6996 brotherH251 comeH935 hither!
16SendH7971 oneH259 of you, that he may fetch your brotherH251, but ye shall be imprisonedH631, and your wordsH1697 shall be put to the proof, whether the truthH571 is in you; and if not, as PharaohH6547 livesH2416, ye are spiesH7270.
