21. `And thou sayest unto thy servants, Bring him down unto me, and I set mine eye upon him;
22. and we say unto my lord, The youth is not able to leave his father, when he hath left his father, then he hath died;
23. and thou sayest unto thy servants, If your young brother come not down with you, ye add not to see my face.
24. `And it cometh to pass, that we have come up unto thy servant my father, that we declare to him the words of my lord;
25. and our father saith, Turn back, buy for us a little food,
26. and we say, We are not able to go down; if our young brother is with us, then we have gone down; for we are not able to see the man's face, and our young brother not with us.
27. `And thy servant my father saith unto us, Ye--ye have known that two did my wife bare to me,
28. and the one goeth out from me, and I say, Surely he is torn--torn! and I have not seen him since;
29. when ye have taken also this from my presence, and mischief hath met him, then ye have brought down my grey hairs with evil to sheol.
30. `And now, at my coming in unto thy servant my father, and the youth not with us (and his soul is bound up in his soul),
31. then it hath come to pass when he seeth that the youth is not, that he hath died, and thy servants have brought down the grey hairs of thy servant our father with sorrow to sheol;
32. for thy servant obtained the youth by surety from my father, saying, If I bring him not in unto thee--then I have sinned against my father all the days.
