Genesis 42:20 Context
18And Ioseph said vnto them the third day, This doe, and liue: for I feare God. 19If ye be true men, let one of your brethren be bound in the house of your prison: goe ye, carry corne for the famine of your houses. 20But bring your yongest brother vnto mee, so shall your wordes be verified, and yee shall not die: and they did so. 21¶ And they said one to another, We are verily guiltie concerning our brother, in that we saw the anguish of his soule, when he besought vs, and we would not heare: therefore is this distresse come vpon vs. 22And Reuben answered them, saying, Spake I not vnto you, saying, Doe not sinne against the childe, and ye would not heare? therefore behold also, his blood is required.
