1. And the famine [is] severe in the land;
2. and it cometh to pass, when they have finished eating the corn which they brought from Egypt, that their father saith unto them, `Turn back, buy for us a little food.'
3. And Judah speaketh unto him, saying, `The man protesting protested to us, saying, Ye do not see my face without your brother [being] with you;
4. if thou art sending our brother with us, we go down, and buy for thee food,
5. and if thou art not sending--we do not go down, for the man said unto us, Ye do not see my face without your brother [being] with you.'
