Genesis 42:30-32
New English Translation

30 “The man, the lord of the land, spoke harshly to us and treated us[a] as if we were[b] spying on the land. 31 But we said to him, ‘We are honest men; we are not spies! 32 We are from a family of twelve brothers; we are the sons of one father.[c] One is no longer alive,[d] and the youngest is with our father at this time[e] in the land of Canaan.’
