It grieves me at heart to part with him, said the father especially when I have an uneasy sense of the probability of the boy being brutally assailed and devoured by a wolf at a moment when you are oblivious of him it
Quran 12:13 Tafsir Ibn Kathir
Ya`qub's Answer to Their Request
Allah narrates to us that His Prophet Ya`qub said to his children, in response to their request that he send Yusuf with them to the desert to tend their cattle,
إِنِّى لَيَحْزُنُنِى أَن تَذْهَبُواْ بِهِ
( Truly, it saddens me that you should take him away. ) He said that it was hard on him that he be separated from Yusuf for the duration of their trip, until they came back.
This demonstrates the deep love that Ya`qub had for his son, because he saw in Yusuf great goodness and exalted qualities with regards to conduct and physical attractiveness associated with the rank of prophethood.
May Allah's peace and blessings be on him.
Prophet Ya`qub's statement next,
وَأَخَافُ أَن يَأْكُلَهُ الذِّئْبُ وَأَنْتُمْ عَنْهُ غَـفِلُونَ
( I fear lest a wolf should devour him, while you are careless of him. ) He said to them, `I fear that you might be careless with him while you are tending the cattle and shooting, then a wolf might come and eat him while you are unaware.' They heard these words from his mouth and used them in their response for what they did afterwards.
They also gave a spontaneous reply for their father's statement, saying,
لَئِنْ أَكَلَهُ الذِّئْبُ وَنَحْنُ عُصْبَةٌ إِنَّآ إِذَا لَّخَـسِرُونَ
( If a wolf devours him, while we are an `Usbah, then surely, we are the losers. ) They said, `If a wolf should attack and devour him while we are all around him in a strong group, then indeed we are the losers and weak.'

Tanwîr al-Miqbâs min Tafsîr Ibn ‘Abbâs
( He said ) their father said: ( Lo! in truth it saddens me that ye should take him with you ) such that I do not see him, ( and I fear lest the wolf devour him ) because he saw in his dream a wolf attacking Joseph ( while ye are heedless of him ) while you are busy with playing; it is also said that this means: while you are busy with your chores.
Muhammad Taqiud-Din alHilali
He [Ya'qub (Jacob)] said: "Truly, it saddens me that you should take him away. I fear lest a wolf should devour him, while you are careless of him."
We try our best to translate, keeping in mind the Italian saying: "Traduttore, traditore", which means: "Translation is a betrayal of the original text".
