Genesis 44:24-34

44:24

And it came to pass when we came up
<05927> (8804)

unto thy servant
<05650>

my father
<01>_,

we told
<05046> (8686)

him the words
<01697>

of my lord
<0113>_.

44:25

And our father
<01>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

Go again
<07725> (8798)_,

[and] buy
<07666> (8798)

us a little
<04592>

food
<0400>_.

44:26

And we said
<0559> (8799)_,

We cannot
<03201> (8799)

go down
<03381> (8800)_:

if our youngest
<06996>

brother
<0251>

be
<03426>

with us, then will we go down
<03381> (8804)_:

for we may
<03201> (8799)

not see
<07200> (8800)

the man's
<0376>

face
<06440>_,

except
<0369>

our youngest
<06996>

brother
<0251>

[be] with us.

44:27

And thy servant
<05650>

my father
<01>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto us, Ye know
<03045> (8804)

that my wife
<0802>

bare
<03205> (8804)

me two
<08147>

[sons]:

44:28

And the one
<0259>

went out
<03318> (8799)

from me, and I said
<0559> (8799)_,

Surely
<02963> (8800)

he is torn in pieces
<02963> (8776)_;

and I saw him
<07200> (8804)

not since
<02008>_:

44:29

And if ye take
<03947> (8804)

this also from
<05973>

me
<06440>_,

and mischief
<0611>

befall him
<07136> (8804)_,

ye shall bring down
<03381> (8689)

my gray hairs
<07872>

with sorrow
<07451>

to the grave
<07585>_.

44:30

Now therefore when I come
<0935> (8800)

to thy servant
<05650>

my father
<01>_,

and the lad
<05288>

[be] not with us; seeing that his life
<05315>

is bound up
<07194> (8803)

in the lad's life
<05315>_;

44:31

It shall come to pass, when he seeth
<07200> (8800)

that the lad
<05288>

[is] not [with us], that he will die
<04191> (8804)_:

and thy servants
<05650>

shall bring down
<03381> (8689)

the gray hairs
<07872>

of thy servant
<05650>

our father
<01>

with sorrow
<03015>

to the grave
<07585>_.

44:32

For thy servant
<05650>

became surety
<06148> (8804)

for the lad
<05288>

unto
<05973>

my father
<01>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

If I bring
<0935> (8686)

him not unto thee, then I shall bear the blame
<02398> (8804)

to my father
<01>

for ever
<03117>_.

44:33

Now therefore, I pray thee, let thy servant
<05650>

abide
<03427> (8799)

instead of the lad
<05288>

a bondman
<05650>

to my lord
<0113>_;

and let the lad
<05288>

go up
<05927> (8799)

with his brethren
<0251>_.

44:34

For how
<0349>

shall I go up
<05927> (8799)

to my father
<01>_,

and the lad
<05288>

[be] not with me? lest peradventure I see
<07200> (8799)

the evil
<07451>

that shall come on
<04672> (8799)

my father
<01>_.

{come...: Heb. find my father}
