Genesis 42:16-18

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

¹⁶ Send one of you and let him bring your brother, and you will be kept in prison, that your words may be proved whether there is any truth in you; or else by the life of Pharaoh you certainly are spies.

¹⁷ Then he put them all in custody for three days.

¹⁸ And Joseph said to them on the third day, Do this and live! I reverence and fear God.
