Genesis 44:1-8

1Then he commanded the steward of his house, "Fill the men's sacks with food, as much as they can carry, and put each man's money in the mouth of his sack,

2and put my cup, the silver cup, in the mouth of the sack of the youngest, with his money for the grain." And he did as Joseph told him.

3As soon as the morning was light, the men were sent away with their donkeys.

4They had gone only a short distance from the city. Now Joseph said to his steward, "Up, follow after the men, and when you overtake them, say to them, 'Why have you repaid evil for good?

5Is it not from this that my lord drinks, and by this that he practices divination? You have done evil in doing this.'"

6When he overtook them, he spoke to them these words.

7They said to him, "Why does my lord speak such words as these? Far be it from your servants to do such a thing!

8Behold, the money that we found in the mouths of our sacks we brought back to you from the land of Canaan. How then could we steal silver or gold from your lord's house?
