Genesis 42:11-15 English Standard Version (ESV)

11. We are all sons of one man. We are honest men. Your servants have never been spies.”

12. He said to them, “No, it is the nakedness of the land that you have come to see.”

13. And they said, “We, your servants, are twelve brothers, the sons of one man in the land of Canaan, and behold, the youngest is this day with our father, and one is no more.”

14. But Joseph said to them, “It is as I said to you. You are spies.

15. By this you shall be tested: by the life of Pharaoh, you shall not go from this place unless your youngest brother comes here.
