GEN 42:1–5, engwebp
¹Now Jacob saw that there was grain in Egypt, and Jacob said to his sons, “Why do you look at one another?”
²He said, “Behold, I have heard that there is grain in Egypt. Go down there, and buy for us from there, so that we may live, and not die.”
³Joseph’s ten brothers went down to buy grain from Egypt.
⁴But Jacob didn’t send Benjamin, Joseph’s brother, with his brothers; for he said, “Lest perhaps harm happen to him.”
⁵The sons of Israel came to buy among those who came, for the famine was in the land of Canaan.
