Genesis 42:19-21

English Standard Version Anglicised

¹⁹ if you are honest men, let one of your brothers remain confined where you are in custody, and let the rest go and carry ^(A)grain for the famine of your households, ²⁰ and ^(B)bring your youngest brother to me. So your words will be verified, and you shall not die.” And they did so. ²¹ Then they said to one another, ^(C)“In truth we are guilty concerning our brother, in that we saw the distress of his soul, when he begged us and we did not listen. That is why this distress has come upon us.”
