Genesis 43:5-7

21st Century King James Version

⁵ But if thou wilt not send him, we will not go down, for the man said unto us, ‘Ye shall not see my face, unless your brother be with you.’”

⁶ And Israel said, “Why dealt ye so ill with me, as to tell the man whether ye had yet a brother?”

⁷ And they said, “The man asked us strictly about our state, and about our kindred, saying, ‘Is your father yet alive? Have ye another brother?’ And we told him according to the tenor of these words. Could we certainly know that he would say, ‘Bring your brother down’?”
