30 'The man, the lord of the land, spoke roughly with us, and took us for spies of the country.
31 We said to him, 'We are honest men. We are no spies.
32 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 Canaan.'
33 The man, the lord of the land, said to us, 'Hereby will I 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.
