Genesis 43:1-3

New Century Version

The Brothers Go Back to Egypt

43 Still no food grew in the land of Canaan. ² When Jacob’s family had eaten all the grain they had brought from Egypt, Jacob said to them, “Go to Egypt again and buy a little more grain for us to eat.”

³ But Judah said to Jacob, “The governor of that country strongly warned us, ‘If you don’t bring your brother back with you, you will not be allowed to see me.’
