Genesis 42:29-38
29And they cameH935 to JacobH3290 their fatherH1 to the landH776 of CanaanH3667, and toldH5046 him all that befellH7136 them; sayingH559, 30The manH376, who is the lordH113 of the landH776, spokeH1696 roughlyH7186 to us, and tookH5414 us for spiesH7270 of the countryH776.1 31And we saidH559 to him, We are honestH3651 men ; we are no spiesH7270: 32We are twelveH6240H8147 brethrenH251, sonsH1121 of our fatherH1; oneH259 is not, and the youngestH6996 is this dayH3117 with our fatherH1 in the landH776 of CanaanH3667. 33And the manH376, the lordH113 of the countryH776, saidH559 to us, By this shall I knowH3045 that ye are honestH3651 men ; leaveH3240 oneH259 of your brethrenH251 here with me, and takeH3947 food for the famineH7459 of your householdsH1004, and departH3212: 34And bringH935 your youngestH6996 brotherH251 to me: then shall I knowH3045 that ye are no spiesH7270, but that ye are honestH3651 men: then will I deliverH5414 to you your brotherH251, and ye shall tradeH5503 in the landH776. 35And it came to pass as they emptiedH7324 their sacksH8242, that, behold, every man’sH376 bundleH6872 of moneyH3701 was in his sackH8242: and when they and their fatherH1 sawH7200 the bundlesH6872 of moneyH3701, they were afraidH3372. 36And JacobH3290 their fatherH1 saidH559 to them, Me have ye bereavedH7921: JosephH3130 is not, and SimeonH8095 is not, and ye will takeH3947 BenjaminH1144 away : all these things are against me. 37And ReubenH7205 spokeH559 to his fatherH1, sayingH559, SlayH4191 my twoH8147 sonsH1121, if I bringH935 him not to thee: deliverH5414 him into my handH3027, and I will bring him to thee againH7725. 38And he saidH559, My sonH1121 shall not go downH3381 with you; for his brotherH251 is deadH4191, and he is leftH7604 alone: if harmH611 shall befallH7122 him by the wayH1870 in which ye goH3212, then shall ye bring downH3381 my gray hairsH7872 with sorrowH3015 to the graveH7585.
