8. Behold, the money which we found in the mouth 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?
9. With whomever of your servants it is found, let him die, and we also will be my lord's slaves."
10. So he said, "Now let it also be according to your words; he with whom it is found shall be my slave, and the rest of you shall be innocent."
11. Then they hurried, each man lowered his sack to the ground, and each man opened his sack.
12. He searched, beginning with the oldest and ending with the youngest, and the cup was found in Benjamin's sack.
13. Then they tore their clothes, and when each man loaded his donkey, they returned to the city.
14. When Judah and his brothers came to Joseph's house, he was still there, and they fell to the ground before him.
15. Joseph said to them, "What is this deed that you have done? Do you not know that such a man as I can indeed practice divination?"
16. So Judah said, "What can we say to my lord? What can we speak? And how can we justify ourselves? God has found out the iniquity of your servants; behold, we are my lord's slaves, both we and the one in whose possession the cup has been found."
