The man, the lord of the land, said to us, 'By this I will know that you are honest men: leave one of your brothers with me, and take grain for the famine of your houses, and go your way.
By this you shall be tested. By the life of Par`oh, you shall not go forth from here, unless your youngest brother comes here.
We are twelve brothers, sons of our father; one is no more, and the youngest is this day with our father in the land of Kena`an.'
