Genesis 43:2

Bible in Basic English 1965

And when the grain which they had got in Egypt was all used up, their father said to them, Go again and get us a little food.

See the chapter Copy

Now the land was in bitter need of food.

And said, O my lord, we only came down the first time to get food;

And Judah said to him, The man said to us with an oath, You are not to come before me again without your brother.

If you will let our brother go with us, we will go down and get food:

And our father said, Go again and get us a little food.

Better is a little with the fear of the Lord, than great wealth together with trouble.

Pride goes before destruction, and a stiff spirit before a fall.

After looking at a field with care, she gets it for a price, planting a vine-garden with the profit of her work.

If anyone has no care for his family and those in his house, he is false to the faith, and is worse than one who has no faith.
