Genesis 43:8-10

Jubilee Bible 2000

⁸ Then Judah said unto Israel, his father, Send the lad with me, and we will arise and go, that we may live, and not die, both we and thou and also our little ones.

⁹ I will be surety for him; of my hand shalt thou require him; if I do not bring him unto thee and set him before thee, then let me bear the sin for ever;

¹⁰ for if we had not lingered, surely by now we would have returned this second time.
