1 NOW when Jacob saw that there was grain in Egypt, Jacob said to his sons, Fear not. 2 Behold, I have heard that there is grain in Egypt; go down there, and buy for us from there; that we may live, and not die. 3 And so Joseph's ten brothers went down to buy grain in Egypt. 4 But Benjamin, Joseph's brother, Jacob did not send with his brothers; for he said, Lest some misfortune might befall him. 5 And the sons of Israel came to buy grain with those that came; for the famine was severe in the land of Canaan.
