Genesis 42:19 NKJV

If you are honest men, let one of your brothers be confined to your prison house; but you, go and carry grain for the famine of your houses.

Genesis 42:33-34 NKJV

Then the man, the lord of the country, said to us, ‘By this I will know that you are honest men: Leave one of your brothers here with me, take food for the famine of your households, and be gone. And bring your youngest brother to me; so I shall know that you are not spies, but that you are honest men. I will grant your brother to you, and you may trade in the land.’ ”
