Genesis 44:1-8
1And he commandedH6680 the steward of his houseH1004, sayingH559, FillH4390 the men’sH582 sacksH572 with foodH400, as much asH834 they canH3201 carryH5375, and putH7760 every man’sH376 moneyH3701 in his sack’sH572 mouthH6310.1
2And putH7760 my cupH1375, the silverH3701 cupH1375, in the sack’sH572 mouthH6310 of the youngestH6996, and his grainH7668 moneyH3701. And he didH6213 according to the wordH1697 that JosephH3130 had spokenH1696.
3As soon as the morningH1242 was lightH215, the menH582 were sent awayH7971, they and their donkeysH2543.
4And when they had gone outH3318 of the cityH5892, and were not yet far offH7368, JosephH3130 saidH559 to his stewardH1004, AriseH6965, followH7291 afterH310 the menH582; and when thou dost overtakeH5381 them, sayH559 to them, Why have ye rewardedH7999 evilH7451 for goodH2896?
5Is not this the cup in which my lordH113 drinkethH8354, and by which indeedH5172 he divinethH5172? ye have done evilH7489 in so doingH6213.2
6And he overtookH5381 them, and he spokeH1696 to them these sameH428 wordsH1697.
7And they saidH559 to him, Why saithH1696 my lordH113 these wordsH1697? Far be it from usH2486 that thy servantsH5650 should doH6213 according to this thingH1697:
8Behold, the moneyH3701, which we foundH4672 in our sacksH572’ mouthsH6310, we brought againH7725 to thee from the landH776 of CanaanH3667: how then should we stealH1589 from thy lord’sH113 houseH1004 silverH3701 or goldH2091?
