Genesis 44:18 in Context — Genesis 44

16 Então disse Judá: Que diremos a meu senhor? Que falaremos? Ou com que nos justificaremos? Deus achou a maldade de teus servos: eis que, nós somos servos de meu senhor, nós, e também aquele em cujo poder foi achado o copo.

17 E ele respondeu: Nunca eu tal faça: o homem em cujo poder foi achado o copo, ele será meu servo; vós ide em paz a vosso pai.

18 Então Judá se chegou a ele, e disse: Ai senhor meu, rogo-te que fale teu servo uma palavra aos ouvidos de meu senhor, e não se acenda tua ira contra teu servo, pois que tu és como Faraó.

19 Meu senhor perguntou a seus servos, dizendo: Tendes pai ou irmão?

20 E nós respondemos a meu senhor: Temos um pai ancião, e um jovem que lhe nasceu em sua velhice, pequeno ainda; e um irmão seu morreu, e ele restou sozinho de sua mãe, e seu pai o ama.
