9 And Ioseph remembred his dreames whiche he dreamed of them, and sayde vnto them: ye are spyes, and to see where the lande is weake, is your commyng.

10 And they sayde vnto hym: nay my Lord, but to bye vitayle thy seruauntes are come.

11 We are all one mans sonnes, and meane truely, and thy seruauntes are no spyes.

12 And he sayde vnto them agayne: nay but euen to see where the lande is weake, is your comming.

13 And they said: we thy seruauntes are twelue brethren, the sonnes of one man in the lande of Chanaan, and beholde, the youngest is this day with our father, & one, no man woteth where he is.
