Genesis 44:29-31
International Standard Version
29 If you take this one from me, too, and then something harmful happens to him, then it will be death for me and my sad, gray hair!’[a]
30 “So when I go back to your servant, my father, and the young man isn’t with us, since he’s constantly living life focused on his son,[b] 31 when he notices that the young man hasn’t come back with us, he’ll die, and your servants really will have brought death to your servant, our father,[c] along with his sad, gray hair!
