1 When Iacob sawe that there was corne to be solde in Egipte he sayde vnto his sones: why are ye negligent? 2 beholde I haue hearde that there is corne to be solde i n Egipte. Gete you thither and bye vs corne fro thece that we maye lyue and not dye. 3 So went Iosephs ten brethern doune to bye corne in Egipte 4 for Ben Iamin Iosephs brother wold not Iacob sende with his other brethren: for he sayde: some mysfortune myght happen him 5 And the sonnes of Israell came to bye corne amonge other that came for there was derth also in the lande of Canaan. 6 And Ioseph was gouerner in the londe and solde corne to all the people of the londe. And his brethren came and fell flatt on the grounde before him. Genesis 42:1-6, Tyndale Bible of 1526. Public domain.
