Genesis 44:32-34 ▼

32 Indeed, your servant pledged security for the boy with my father, saying, 'If I do not bring him back to you, then I will bear the blame before my father all my life.'

33 |So now, please let your servant remain as my lord's slave instead of the boy. As for the boy, let him go back with his brothers.

34 For how can I go back to my father if the boy is not with me? I couldn't bear to see my father's pain.|
