Genesis 44:30-32

30Now, therefore, when I come to your servant my father, and the lad is not with us, since 12his life is bound up in the lad’s life,

31when he sees that the lad is not with us, he will die. Thus your servants will 3bring the gray hair of your servant our father down to Sheol in sorrow.

32For your servant 4became surety for the lad to my father, saying, ‘If I do not bring him back to you, then 5let me bear the blame before my father forever.’
