20 And we responded, ‘Yes, my lord, we have a father who is an old man, and his youngest son is a child of his old age. His full brother is dead, and he alone is left of his mother’s children, and his father loves him very much.’

21 “And you said to us, ‘Bring him here so I can see him with my own eyes.’

22 But we said to you, ‘My lord, the boy cannot leave his father, for his father would die.’

23 But you told us, ‘Unless your youngest brother comes with you, you will never see my face again.’
