Genesis 44:19 nasb — "My lord asked his servants, saying, 'Have you a father or a brother?'

So Judah said, "What can we say to my lord? What can we speak? And how can we justify ourselves? God has found out the iniquity of your servants; behold, we are my lord's slaves, both we and the one in whose possession the cup has been found."

But he said, "Far be it from me to do this. The man in whose possession the cup has been found, he shall be my slave; but as for you, go up in peace to your father."

Then Judah approached him, and said, "Oh my lord, may your servant please speak a word in my lord's ears, and do not be angry with your servant; for you are equal to Pharaoh.

"We said to my lord, 'We have an old father and a little child of his old age. Now his brother is dead, so he alone is left of his mother, and his father loves him.'

"Then you said to your servants, 'Bring him down to me that I may set my eyes on him.'

"But we said to my lord, 'The lad cannot leave his father, for if he should leave his father, his father would die.'
