Genesis 44

²⁷ And your servant my father said to us, ‘You know that my wife bore me two sons.

²⁸ When one of them was gone, I said: “Surely he has been torn to pieces.” And I have not seen him since.

²⁹ Now if you also take this one from me and harm comes to him, you will bring my gray hair down to Sheol in sorrow.’

³⁰ So if the boy is not with us when I return to your servant, and if my father, whose life is wrapped up in the boy’s life,

³¹ sees that the boy is not with us, he will die. Then your servants will have brought the gray hair of your servant our father down to Sheol in sorrow.
