Genesis 44:6-12

6And he overtookH5381 them, and he spakeH1696 unto them these sameH428 wordsH1697. 7And they saidH559 unto him, Wherefore saithH1696 my lordH113 these wordsH1697? God forbidH2486 that thy servantsH5650 should doH6213 according to this thingH1697: 8Behold, the moneyH3701, which we foundH4672 in our sacks’H572 mouthsH6310, we brought againH7725 unto thee out of the landH776 of CanaanH3667: how then should we stealH1589 out of thy lord’sH113 houseH1004 silverH3701 or goldH2091? 9With whomsoever of thy servantsH5650 it be foundH4672, both let him dieH4191, and we also will be my lord’sH113 bondmenH5650. 10And he saidH559, Now also let it be according unto your wordsH1697: he with whom it is foundH4672 shall be my servantH5650; and ye shall be blamelessH5355. 11Then they speedilyH4116 took downH3381 every manH376 his sackH572 to the groundH776, and openedH6605 every manH376 his sackH572. 12And he searchedH2664, and beganH2490 at the eldestH1419, and leftH3615 at the youngestH6996: and the cupH1375 was foundH4672 in Benjamin’sH1144 sackH572.
