Genesis 44:26-28

International Standard Version

²⁶ “But we told him, ‘We can’t go back there. If our youngest brother accompanies us, we’ll go back, but we cannot see the man’s face again unless our youngest brother accompanies us.’

²⁷ “Then your servant, our father, told us, ‘You know my wife bore me two sons. ²⁸ One of them left me, so I concluded “I’m certain that he has been torn to pieces,” and I haven’t seen him since then.
