Genesis 44:29

וּ לְקַחְתֶּם גַּם אֶת זֶה מֵ עִם פָּנַי וְ קָרָהוּ אָסֹון וְ הֹורַדְתֶּם אֶת שֵׂיבָתִי בְּ רָעָה שְׁאֹלָה
And you all have taken also אֶת-this one from-with my faces, and a harm has met him, then you all have caused to descend אֶת-my grey-one in a ruined-one sheol-ward.1285

Hebrew שְׁאֹ֑לָה, sheol-ah. Feminine noun. See note on Genesis 37:35. The mark of accusative את shows a correlation/parallelism being made between Heel’s grey hairs and Joseph’s brother Benjamin.
