25 Later our father told us to come back here and buy more grain.
26 But we answered, “We can't go back to Egypt without our youngest brother. We will never be let in to see the governor, unless he is with us.”
27 Sir, our father then reminded us that his favourite wife had given birth to two sons.
28 One of them was already missing and had not been seen for a long time. My father thinks the boy was torn to pieces by some wild animal,
29 and he said, “I am an old man. If you take Benjamin from me, and something happens to him, I will die of a broken heart.”
30 That's why Benjamin must be with us when I go back to my father. He loves him so much
31 that he will die if Benjamin doesn't come back with me.
