Genesis 42:20-22
Holman Christian Standard Bible
20 Bring your youngest brother to me so that your words can be confirmed; then you won’t die.” And they consented to this.
21 Then they said to each other, “Obviously, we are being punished for what we did to our brother. We saw his deep distress when he pleaded with us, but we would not listen. That is why this trouble has come to us.”(A)
22 But Reuben replied: “Didn’t I tell you not to harm the boy?(B) But you wouldn’t listen. Now we must account for his blood!”[a]
