Genesis 44:30
King James Version
“Now therefore when I come to thy servant my father, and the lad not with us; seeing that his life is bound up in the lad’s life;”
Context
27And thy servant my father said unto us, Ye know that my wife bare me two
28And the one went out from me, and I said, Surely he is torn in pieces; and I saw him not since:
29And if ye take this also from me, and mischief befall him, ye shall bring down my gray hairs with sorrow to the grave.
30Now therefore when I come to thy servant my father, and the lad not with us; seeing that his life is bound up in the lad’s life;
31It shall come to pass, when he seeth that the lad not that he will die: and thy servants shall bring down the gray hairs of thy servant our father with sorrow to the grave.
32For thy servant became surety for the lad unto my father, saying, If I bring him not unto thee, then I shall bear the blame to my father for ever.
33Now therefore, I pray thee, let thy servant abide instead of the lad a bondman to my lord; and let the lad go up with his brethren.
