Genesis 44:27-29

The Voice

²⁷ Then your servant, my father, responded, “You know that my wife Rachel bore me two sons: ²⁸ one went off and never came back, and I know he was without a doubt torn to pieces. I haven’t seen him since he left. ²⁹ But now if you take my youngest also from me and any harm should come to him, the sorrow would kill me. I can’t allow you to condemn this old, gray head to the grave.”
