Genesis 44:18-34 And Judah drew near him, and said, I pray, Sir, let your servant speak a word before you, and be not angry with your servant, for you are next to Pharaoh.

CAB⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁸ And Judah drew near him, and said, I pray, Sir, let your servant speak a word before you, and be not angry with your servant, for you are next to Pharaoh. ¹⁹ Sir, you asked your servants, saying, Have you a father or a brother? ²⁰ And we said to my lord, We have a father, an old man, and he has a son of his old age, a young one, and his brother is dead, and he alone has been left behind to his mother, and his father loves him. ²¹ And you said to your servants, Bring him down to me, and I will take care of him. ²² And we said to my lord, The child will not be able to leave his father; but if he should leave his father, he will die. ²³ But you said to your servants, Except your younger brother come down with you, you shall not see my face again. ²⁴ And it came to pass, when we went up to your servant our father, we reported to him the words of our lord. ²⁵ And our father said, Go again, and buy us a little food. ²⁶ And we said, We shall not be able to go down; but if our younger brother go down with us, we will go down; for we shall not be able to see the man's face if our younger brother is not with us. ²⁷ And your servant our father said to us, You know that my wife bore me two sons; ²⁸ and one is departed from me; and you said that he was devoured by wild beasts, and I have not seen him until now. ²⁹ If then you take this one also from my presence, and an affliction happen to him by the way, then shall you bring down my old age with sorrow to the grave. ³⁰ Now then, if I should go in to your servant, and our father, and the boy should not be with us, (and his life depends on this lad's life) ³¹ — it shall even come to pass, when he sees the boy is not with us, that he will die, and your servants will bring down the old age of your servant, and our father, with sorrow to the grave. ³² For your servant has received the boy in charge from his father, saying, If I don't bring him to you, and place him before you, I shall be guilty towards my father forever. ³³ Now then I will remain a servant with you instead of the lad, a slave of my lord; but let the lad go up with his brothers. ³⁴ For how shall I go up to my father, if the lad is not with us? Lest I behold the evils which will befall my father.
