In context
14 And Joseph said to them, That [is] what I spoke to you, saying, Ye [are] spies:
15 By this ye shall be proved: By the life of Pharaoh ye shall not go forth hence, except your youngest brother shall come hither.
16 Send one of you, and let him bring your brother, and ye shall be kept in prison, that your words may be proved, whether [there is any] truth in you: or else by the life of Pharaoh surely ye [are] spies.
17 And he put them all together into custody three days.
18 And Joseph said to them the third day, This do, and live; [for] I fear God:
19 If ye [are] true [men], let one of your brethren be bound in the house of your prison: go ye, carry corn for the famine of your houses:
20 But bring your youngest brother to me; so shall your words be verified, and ye shall not die. And they did so.
