Genesis 44:32-34 ▼

32 For your servant became a guarantee for the boy to my father, saying, ‘If I do not bring him back to you, then I shall bear the sin before my father all my days.’

33 So now, please let your servant remain instead of the boy as a slave to my lord, and let the boy go up with his brothers.

34 For how shall I go up to my father if the boy is not with me, lest I see the evil that would overtake my father?”
