1Now when JacobH3290 sawH7200 that there wasH3426 grainH7668 in EgyptH4714, JacobH3290 saidH559 to his sonsH1121, Why do ye lookH7200 one upon another?

2And he saidH559, Behold, I have heardH8085 that there isH3426 grainH7668 in EgyptH4714: go downH3381 there, and buyH7666 for us from there; that we may liveH2421, and not dieH4191.

3And Joseph’sH3130 tenH6235 brethrenH251 went downH3381 to buyH7666 grainH1250 in EgyptH4714.

4But BenjaminH1144, Joseph’sH3130 brotherH251, JacobH3290 sentH7971 not with his brethrenH251; for he saidH559, Lest perhapsH6435 harmH611 shall befall himH7122.
