Genesis 42:21-23

21st Century King James Version

²¹ And they said one to another, “We are verily guilty concerning our brother, in that we saw the anguish of his soul when he besought us, and we would not hear. Therefore has this distress come upon us.”

²² And Reuben answered them, saying, “Spoke I not unto you, saying, ‘Do not sin against the child’; and ye would not hear? Therefore, behold, also his blood is required.”

²³ And they knew not that Joseph understood them, for he spoke unto them by an interpreter.
