31 But we said to him, We are pious men; we are not spies; 32 We are twelve brothers, sons of our father; and one is dead, and the youngest is this day with our father in the land of Canaan. 33 And the man, the lord of the land, said to us, By this shall I know that you are pious men; leave one of your brothers here with me, and take wheat for the famished who are in your households, and go your way; 34 And bring your youngest brother to me; then shall I know that you are not spies, but that you are pious men; so I will deliver your brother to you, and you shall trade in the land.
