26We said, `We can`t go down. If our youngest brother is with us, then will we go down: for we may not see the man`s face, unless our youngest brother is with us.`
27Your servant, my father, said to us, `You know that my wife bore me two sons:
28and the one went out from me, and I said, "Surely he is torn in pieces;" and I haven`t seen him since.
29If you take this one also from me, and harm befalls him, you will bring down my gray hairs with sorrow to Sheol.`
30Now therefore when I come to your servant my father, and the boy is not with us; seeing that his life is bound up in the boy`s life;
31it will happen, when he sees that the boy is no more, that he will die. Your servants will bring down the gray hairs of your servant, our father, with sorrow to Sheol.
32For your servant became collateral for the boy to my father, saying, `If I don`t bring him to you, then I will bear the blame to my father forever.`
