Scriptures

²² And Reuben answered them, saying, Spake I not unto you, saying, Do not sin against the child; and ye would not hear? therefore, behold, also his blood is required.

²² “Didn’t I tell you not to sin against the boy?” Reuben asked. “But you wouldn’t listen. And now we have to answer for his blood!”

²² Reuben answered them, saying, "Did I not tell you, ’Do not sin against the boy’; and you would not listen? Now comes the reckoning for his blood."

²² And Reuben answered them, saying, "Did I not speak to you, saying, ’Do not sin against the boy’; and you would not listen? Therefore behold, his blood is now required of us."
