1 Now when Jacob saw that there was corn in Egypt, Jacob said to his sons, Why do ye look one upon another? 2 And he said, Behold, I have heard that there is corn in Egypt: go down thither, and buy for us from thence; that we may live, and not die. 3 And Joseph's ten brethren went down to buy corn in Egypt. 4 But Benjamin, Joseph's brother, Jacob sent not with his brethren: for he said, Lest perhaps mischief shall befall him. 5 And the sons of Israel came to buy corn among those that came: for the famine was in the land of Canaan.
