Genesis 44:13-17
13They all tore their clothes! Then each man loaded his donkey, and they returned to the city.
14So Judah and his brothers came back to Joseph’s house. He was still there, and they threw themselves to the ground before him.
15Joseph said to them, “What did you think you were doing? Don’t you know that a man like me can find out things like this by divination?”
16Judah replied, “What can we say to my lord? What can we speak? How can we clear ourselves? God has exposed the sin of your servants! We are now my lord’s slaves, we and the one in whose possession the cup was found.”
17But Joseph said, “Far be it from me to do this! The man in whose hand the cup was found will become my slave, but the rest of you may go back to your father in peace.”
