Genesis 42:3-5

International Standard Version

³ So ten of Joseph’s brothers left to buy grain from Egypt. ⁴ Jacob would not send Joseph’s brother Benjamin to accompany them, because he was saying, “I’m afraid that he’ll come to some kind of harm.” ⁵ Israel’s sons went in a caravan that included others who were going to Egypt to buy grain, because the famine pervaded the land of Canaan, too.
