Jacob Sends Sons to Egypt

Genesis 42:1-5

Then Iaakob saw that there was foode in Egypt, and Iaakob said vnto his sonnes, Why gaze ye one vpon an other?

And he said, Behold, I haue heard that there is foode in Egypt, Get you downe thither, and bie vs foode thence, that we may liue and not die.

So went Iosephs ten brethren downe to bye corne of the Egyptians.

But Beniamin Iosephs brother woulde not Iaakob send with his brethren: for he saide, Least death should befall him.

And the sonnes of Israel came to bye foode among them that came: for there was famine in the land of Canaan.
