Genesis 42:32-34

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition

³² We are twelve brothers, sons of our father; one is no more, and the youngest is now with our father in the land of Canaan.” ³³ Then the man, the lord of the land, said to us, “By this I shall know that you are honest men: leave one of your brothers with me, take grain for the famine of your households, and go your way. ³⁴ Bring your youngest brother to me, and I shall know that you are not spies but honest men. Then I will release your brother to you, and you may trade in the land.”’
