Genesis 42:1


Genesis 41:57 Genesis 42:1 (KJV) Genesis 42:2
And all countries came into Egypt to Joseph for to buy [corn]; because that the famine was [so] sore in all lands.
Now when Jacob saw that there was corn in Egypt, Jacob said unto his sons, Why do ye look one upon another?
And he said, Behold, I have heard that there is corn in Egypt: get you down thither, and buy for us from thence; that we may live, and not die.
