Genesis 44:6-12
6So 1he overtook them and spoke these words to them.
7And they said to him, “Why does my lord say such words as these? Far be it from your servants to do such a thing!
8Behold, 2the money which we found in the opening of our sacks we have brought back to you from the land of Canaan. How then could we steal silver or gold from your lord’s house?
93With whomever of your servants it is found, he shall die, and we also shall be my lord’s 4slaves.”
10So he said, “Now let it indeed be according to your words; he with whom it is found shall be my slave, but the rest of you shall be considered innocent.”
11Then they hurried, each man lowered his sack to the ground, and each man opened his sack.
12And he searched, beginning with the oldest and ending with the youngest; and 5the cup was found in Benjamin’s sack.
