Genesis 44:7-16

7And they said to him, Why saith my lord these words? Far be it from us that thy servants should do according to this thing:

8Behold, the money, which we found in our sacks’ mouths, we brought again to thee from the land of Canaan: how then should we steal from thy lord’s house silver or gold?

9With whomever of thy servants it shall be found, both let him die, and we also will be my lord’s slaves.

10And he said, Now also let it be according to your words: he with whom it shall be found shall be my servant; and ye shall be blameless.

11Then they speedily took down every man his sack to the ground, and opened every man his sack.

12And he searched, and began at the eldest, and stopped at the youngest: and the cup was found in Benjamin’s sack.

13Then they tore their clothes, and loaded every man his donkey, and returned to the city.

14And Judah and his brethren came to Joseph’s house; for he was yet there: and they fell before him on the ground.

15And Joseph said to them, What deed is this that ye have done? knew ye not that such a man as I can certainly divine?1

16And Judah said, What shall we say to my lord? what shall we speak? or how shall we clear ourselves? God hath found out the iniquity of thy servants: behold, we are my lord’s servants, both we, and he also with whom the cup is found.
