Genesis 43:3-7
New International Version
3 But Judah(A) said to him, “The man warned us solemnly, ‘You will not see my face again unless your brother is with you.’(B) 4 If you will send our brother along with us, we will go down and buy food for you.(C) 5 But if you will not send him, we will not go down, because the man said to us, ‘You will not see my face again unless your brother is with you.(D)’”
6 Israel(E) asked, “Why did you bring this trouble(F) on me by telling the man you had another brother?”
7 They replied, “The man questioned us closely about ourselves and our family. ‘Is your father still living?’(G) he asked us. ‘Do you have another brother?’(H) We simply answered his questions. How were we to know he would say, ‘Bring your brother down here’?”(I)

4 If thou wilt send our brother with us, we will go down and buy thee food:
5 But if thou wilt not send him, we will not go down; for the man said unto us, Ye shall not see my face unless your brother is with you.
6 And Israel said, Why did ye such evil unto me as to tell the man that ye had another brother?
7 And they said, The man asked us expressly of our state and of our kindred, saying, Is your father yet alive? Have ye another brother? And we told him according to the tenor of these words. Could we certainly know that he would say, Bring your brother down?
