Genesis 44:32-34

32 For your servant became a pledge of safety for the boy to my father, saying, ^b‘If I do not bring him back to you, then I shall bear the blame before my father all my life.’ 33 Now therefore, please let your servant remain instead of the boy as a servant to my lord, and let the boy go back with his brothers. 34 For how can I go back to my father if the boy is not with me? I fear to see the evil that would find my father.”

the fruit of my body for the sin of my soul?”
