American King James Version
"For how shall I go up to my father, and the lad be not with me? lest peradventure I see the evil that shall come on my father. "
— Genesis 44:34, American King James Version
“For how shall I go up to my father, and the lad be not with me? lest peradventure I see the evil that shall come on my father. ”
“For how shall I go up to my father, if the lad be not with me? lest I see the evil that shall come on my father. ”
“For how will I go up to my father, if the boy isn't with me?--lest I see the evil that will come on my father."”
“For how can I go back to my father if the boy is not with me? I couldn’t bear to see my father’s pain.””
“For I cannot return to my father without the boy, lest I be a witness of the calamity that will oppress my father. ”
“For how may I go back to my father without the boy, and see the evil which will come on my father?”
“For how shall I go up to my father, and the lad be not with me? lest peradventure I see the evil that shall come on my father. ”
It shall come to pass, when he sees that the lad is not with us, that he will die: and your servants shall bring down the gray hairs of your servant our father with sorrow to the grave.
For your servant became surety for the lad to my father, saying, If I bring him not to you, then I shall bear the blame to my father for ever.
Now therefore, I pray you, let your servant abide instead of the lad a slave to my lord; and let the lad go up with his brothers.
For how shall I go up to my father, and the lad be not with me? lest peradventure I see the evil that shall come on my father.
