Genesis 42:2-4

International Standard Version

² Pay attention now! I’ve heard that there is grain in Egypt, so go down there and buy some grain for us, so we can live, instead of dying.”

³ So ten of Joseph’s brothers left to buy grain from Egypt. ⁴ Jacob would not send Joseph’s brother Benjamin to accompany them, because he was saying, “I’m afraid that he’ll come to some kind of harm.”
