God has found out the iniquity of your servants: behold, we are my lord's servants, both we, and also he with whom the cup is found. 17 And he said, God forbid that I should do so: but the man in whose hand the cup is found, he shall be my servant; and as for you, go up in peace to your father. 18 Then Judah came near to him, and said, Oh my lord, let your servant, I pray you, speak a word in my lord's ears, and let not your anger burn against your servant: for you are even as Pharaoh. 19 My lord asked his servants, saying, Do you have a father or a brother? 20 And we said to my lord, We have a father, an old man, and a child of his old age, a little one; and his brother is dead, and he alone is left of his mother, and his father loves him. 21 And you said to your servants, Bring him down to me, that I may set my eyes upon him. 22 And we said to my lord, The lad cannot leave his father: for if he should leave his father, his father would die. 23 And you said to your servants, Unless your youngest brother comes down with you, you shall see my face no more. 24 And it came to pass when we came up to your servant my father, we told him the words of my lord. 25 And our father said, Go again, and buy us a little food. 26 And we said, We cannot go down: if our youngest brother is with us, then we will go down: for we may not see the man's face, unless our youngest brother is with us. 27 And your servant my father said to us, You know that my wife bore me two sons: 28 And the one went out from me, and I said, Surely he is torn in pieces; and I have not seen him since: 29 And if you take this also from me, and harm befalls him, you shall bring down my gray hairs with sorrow to the grave. 30 Now therefore, when I come to your servant my father, and the lad is not with us; seeing that his life is bound up in the lad's life; 31 It shall come to pass, when he sees that the lad is not with us, that he will die: and your servants shall bring down the gray hairs of your servant our father with sorrow to the grave. 32 For your servant became a guarantee for the lad to my father, saying, If I do not bring him back to you, then I shall bear the blame to my father forever. 33 Now therefore, I pray you, let your servant stay instead of the lad as a slave to my lord; and let the lad go up with his brothers. 34 For how shall I go up to my father, and the lad is not with me? lest perhaps I see the evil that shall come upon my father.
