18 Entonces Judá se llegó á él, y dijo: Ay señor mío, ruégote que hable tu siervo una palabra en oídos de mi señor, y no se encienda tu enojo contra tu siervo, pues que tú eres como Faraón.

19 Mi señor preguntó á sus siervos, diciendo: ¿Tenéis padre ó hermano?

20 Y nosotros respondimos á mi señor: Tenemos un padre anciano, y un mozo que le nació en su vejez, pequeño [aún]; y un hermano suyo murió, y él quedó solo de su madre, y su padre lo ama.

21 Y tú dijiste á tus siervos: Traédmelo, y pondré mis ojos sobre él.
