Genesis 44:32-34

21st Century King James Version

³² For thy servant became surety for the lad unto my father, saying, ‘If I bring him not unto thee, then I shall bear the blame to my father for ever.’

³³ Now therefore, I pray thee, let thy servant remain instead of the lad as a bondman to my lord, and let the lad go up with his brethren.

³⁴ For how shall I go up to my father and the lad be not with me, lest perhaps I see the evil that shall come upon my father?”
