Genesis 43:2-4

New International Reader's Version

² After a while Jacob’s family had eaten all the grain the brothers had brought from Egypt. So their father said to them, “Go back. Buy us a little more food.”

³ But Judah said to him, “The man gave us a strong warning. He said, ‘You won’t see my face again unless your brother Benjamin is with you.’ ⁴ So send our brother along with us. Then we’ll go down and buy food for you.
