And Joseph remembered his dreams which he dreamed of them / and said unto them: ye are spies / and to see where the land is weak is your coming. And they said unto him: nay my lord: but to bye victual thy servants are come. We are all one mans sons / and mean truly / and thy servants are no spies. And he said unto them: nay verily / but even to see where the land is weak is your coming. And they said: we thy servants are .xij. brethren / the sons of one man in the land of Canaan. The youngest is yet with our father / and one no man wotteth where he is.
And Joseph remembred his dreames which he dreamed of them / and sayde vnto them: ye are spies / and to se where the lande is weake is youre comynge. And they sayde vnto him: nay my lorde: but to bye vitayle thy seruauntes are come. We are all one mans sonnes / and meane truely / and thy seruauntes are no spies. And he sayde vnto them: nay verely / but euen to se where the land is weake is youre comynge. And they sayde: we thi seruauntes are .xij. brethern / the sonnes of one man in the lande of Canaan. The yongest is yet with oure father / and one no man woteth where he is.
Joseph said unto them / that is it that I said unto you / that ye are surely spies. Here by the shall be proved. For by the life of Pharaoh / ye shall not goo hence / until your youngest brother be come hither. Send therefore one off you and let him set your ⟨image 72⟩brother / and ye shall be in prison in the mean season. And thereby shall your words be proved / whether there be any trueth in you: or else by the life of Pharaoh / ye are but spies. And he put them in ward three days.
Joseph sayde vnto them / that is it that I sayde vnto you / that ye are surelye spies. Here by ye shall be proued. For by the lyfe of Pharao / ye shall not goo hence / vntyll youre yongest brother be come hither. Sende therfore one off you and lett him sett youre ⟨image 72⟩brother / and ye shalbe in preason in the meane season. And thereby shall youre wordes be proued / whether there be any trueth in you: or els by the lyfe of Pharao / ye are but spies. And he put them in warde thre dayes.
