Genesis 42:28-34 Darby Translation 1890 (DARBY)

28. And he said to his brethren, My money is returned to me, and behold, it is even in my sack. And their heart failed them, and they were afraid, saying one to another, What is this that God has done to us?

29. And they came into the land of Canaan, to Jacob their father, and told him all that had befallen them, saying,

30. The man, the lord of the land, spoke roughly to us, and treated us as spies of the land.

31. And we said to him, We are honest; we are not spies:

32. we are twelve brethren, sons of our father; one is not, and the youngest is this day with our father in the land of Canaan.

33. And the man, the lord of the land, said to us, Hereby shall I know that ye are honest: leave one of your brethren with me, and take for the hunger of your households, and go,

34. and bring your youngest brother to me, and I shall know that ye are not spies, but are honest. Your brother will I give up to you; and ye may trade in the land.
