Genesis 42:22-24

New Catholic Bible

²² Reuben spoke to them, “Did I not tell you not to sin against the boy? But you refused to listen. Now we will pay for his blood.” ²³ They did not know that Joseph understood them because he was using an interpreter.

²⁴ He walked away from them and cried. Then he returned and spoke with them. He selected Simeon and had him placed in chains while they were watching.
