6And JosephH3130 was the governorH7989 over the landH776, and he it was that soldH7666 to all the peopleH5971 of the landH776: and Joseph’sH3130 brethrenH251 cameH935, and bowed downH7812 themselves before him with their facesH639 to the earthH776.
7And JosephH3130 sawH7200 his brethrenH251, and he knewH5234 them, but made himself strangeH5234 unto them, and spakeH1696 roughlyH7186 unto them; and he saidH559 unto them, WhenceH370 comeH935 ye? And they saidH559, From the landH776 of CanaanH3667 to buyH7666 foodH400.1
8And JosephH3130 knewH5234 his brethrenH251, but they knewH5234 not him.
9And JosephH3130 rememberedH2142 the dreamsH2472 which he dreamedH2492 of them, and saidH559 unto them, Ye are spiesH7270; to seeH7200 the nakednessH6172 of the landH776 ye are comeH935.
