You are spies.By this you shall be tested: by the life of Pharaoh, you shall not go from this place unless your youngest brother comes here.Send one of you, and let him bring your brother, while you remain confined, that your words may be tested, whether there is truth in you. Or else, by the life of Pharaoh, surely you are spies."And he put them all together in custody for three days.On the third day Joseph said to them, "Do this and you will live, for I fear God:if you are honest men, let one of your brothers remain confined where you are in custody, and let the rest go and carry grain for the famine of your households,So ten of Joseph's brothers went down to buy grain in Egypt.But Jacob did not send Benjamin, Joseph's brother, with his brothers, for he feared that harm might happen to him.Thus the sons of Israel came to buy among the others who came, for the famine was in the land of Canaan.Now Joseph was governor over the land.

They said, "From the land of Canaan, to buy food."And Joseph recognized his brothers, but they did not recognize him.And Joseph remembered the dreams that he had dreamed of them. And he said to them, "You are spies; you have come to see the nakedness of the land."
