1599 Geneva Bible
42 3 Joseph’s brethren come into Egypt to buy corn. 7 He knoweth them, and tryeth them. 24 Simeon is put in prison. 34 The others go to fetch Benjamin.
1 Then [a]Jacob saw that there was [b]food in Egypt, and Jacob said unto his sons, Why [c]gaze ye one upon another?
2 And he said, Behold, I have heard that there is food in Egypt, (A)Get you down thither, and buy us food thence, that we may live and not die.
