Genesis 44:27-31
English Standard Version
Chapter 44
27Then your servant my father said to us, ‘You know that my wife bore me two sons. 28One left me, and I said, "Surely he has been torn to pieces," and I have never seen him since. 29If you take this one also from me, and harm happens to him, you will bring down my gray hairs in evil to Sheol.’
30"Now therefore, as soon as I come to your servant my father, and the boy is not with us, then, as his life is bound up in the boy 's life,
31as soon as he sees that the boy is not with us, he will die, and your servants will bring down the gray hairs of your servant our father with sorrow to Sheol.
