Genesis 42:5 in Context — Genesis 42
3 Y descendieron los diez hermanos de José á comprar trigo á Egipto.
4 Mas Jacob no envió á Benjamín hermano de José con sus hermanos; porque dijo: No sea acaso que le acontezca algún desastre.
5 Y vinieron los hijos de Israel á comprar entre los que venían: porque había hambre en la tierra de Canaán.
6 Y José era el señor de la tierra, que vendía á todo el pueblo de la tierra: y llegaron los hermanos de José, é inclináronse á él rostro por tierra.
7 Y José como vió á sus hermanos, conociólos; mas hizo que no los conocía, y hablóles ásperamente, y les dijo: ¿De dónde habéis venido? Ellos respondieron: De la tierra de Canaán á comprar alimentos.
