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.

21 E tu disseste a teus servos: Trazei-o a mim, e porei meus olhos sobre ele.
