Genesis 42:5


Genesis 42:4 Genesis 42:5 (KJV) Genesis 42:6
But Benjamin, Joseph's brother, Jacob sent not with his brethren; for he said, Lest peradventure mischief befall him.
And the sons of Israel came to buy [corn] among those that came: for the famine was in the land of Canaan.
And Joseph [was] the governor over the land, [and] he [it was] that sold to all the people of the land: and Joseph's brethren came, and bowed down themselves before him [with] their faces to the earth.
