In context
26 And we said, We cannot go down: if our youngest brother shall be with us, then will we go down; for we may not see the man's face, except our youngest brother shall [be] with us.
27 And thy servant my father, said to us, Ye know that my wife bore me two [sons]:
28 And the one went out from me, and I said, Surely he is torn in pieces; and I have not seen him since:
29 And if ye take this also from me, and mischief shall befall him, ye will bring down my gray hairs with sorrow to the grave.
30 Now therefore, when I come to thy servant my father, and the lad is not with us; (seeing that his life is bound up in the lad's life)
31 It shall come to pass, when he seeth that the lad [is] not [with us], that he will die: and thy servants will bring down the gray hairs of thy servant our father, with sorrow to the grave.
32 For thy servant became surety for the lad to my father, saying, If I bring him not to thee, then I will bear the blame to my father for ever.
