So Joseph's ten brothers went down to get grain from Egypt.

But Jacob did not send Benjamin, Joseph's brother, with them, for fear, as he said, that some evil might come to him.

Now Joseph was ruler over all the land, and it was he who gave out the grain to all the people of the land; and Joseph's brothers came before him and went down on their faces to the earth.

And the servant did as Joseph said, and took the men into Joseph's house.

Now the men were full of fear because they had been taken into Joseph's house and they said, It is because of the money which was put back in our bags the first time; he is looking for something against us, so that he may come down on us and take us and our asses for his use.

So they went up to Joseph's chief servant at the door of the house,

And the servant took them into Joseph's house, and gave them water for washing their feet; and he gave their asses food.

Now Joseph and all his father's family went on living in Egypt: and the years of Joseph's life were a hundred and ten.

And Joseph saw Ephraim's children of the third generation: and the children of Machir, the son of Manasseh, came to birth on Joseph's knees.
