Genesis 42:9-16 King James 2000 (KJ2000)

9. And Joseph remembered the dreams which he dreamed of them, and said unto them, You are spies; to see the nakedness of the land you are come.

10. And they said unto him, Nay, my lord, but to buy food are your servants come.

11. We are all one man's sons; we are honest men, your servants are no spies.

12. And he said unto them, Nay, but to see the nakedness of the land you are come.

13. And they said, 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 not.

14. And Joseph said unto them, It is as I spoke unto you, saying, You are spies:

15. Hereby you shall be proved: By the life of Pharaoh you shall not go forth from here, except your youngest brother come here.

16. Send one of you, and let him fetch your brother, and you shall be kept in prison, that your words may be proved, whether there be any truth in you: or else by the life of Pharaoh surely you are spies.
