Genesis 42:5-7
1599 Geneva Bible
5 And the sons of Israel came to buy food among them that came: for there was famine in the land of Canaan.
6 Now Joseph was governor of the land, who sold to all the people of the land: then Joseph’s brethren came, and bowed their faces to the ground before him.
7 And when Joseph saw his brethren, he knew them, and [a]made himself strange toward them, and spake to them roughly, and said unto them, Whence come ye? Who answered, Out of the land of Canaan, to buy vittles.
