创世记 42:15 · Genesis 42:15
我指着法老的性命起誓，若是你们的小兄弟不到这里来，你们就不得出这地方，从此就可以把你们证验出来了。
Hereby ye shall be proved: By the life of Pharaoh ye shall not go forth hence, except your youngest brother come hither.
创世记 42:16 · Genesis 42:16
须要打发你们中间一个人去，把你们的兄弟带来。至於你们，都要囚在监里，好证验你们的话真不真，若不真，我指着法老的性命起誓，你们一定是奸细。」
Send one of you, and let him fetch your brother, and ye shall be kept in prison, that your words may be proved, whether [there be any] truth in you: or else by the life of Pharaoh surely ye [are] spies.

「那地的主对我们说严厉的话，把我们当作窥探那地的奸细。
The man, [who is] the lord of the land, spake roughly to us, and took us for spies of the country.
