6. So the servant caught up with the brothers. He said to them what Joseph had told him to say.
7. But the brothers said to the servant, “Why do you say these things? We would not do anything like that!
8. We brought back to you the money we found in our sacks. We brought it back from the land of Canaan. So surely we would not steal silver or gold from your master’s house.
9. If you find that silver cup in the sack of one of us, then let him die. And we will be your slaves.”
10. The servant said, “We will do as you say. But only the man who has taken the cup will become my slave. The rest of you may go free.”
11. Then every brother quickly lowered his sack to the ground and opened it.
12. The servant searched the sacks, going from the oldest brother to the youngest. He found the cup in Benjamin’s sack.
13. The brothers tore their clothes to show they were sad. Then they put their sacks back on the donkeys. And they returned to the city.
14. When Judah and his brothers went back to Joseph’s house, Joseph was still there. The brothers bowed facedown on the ground before him.
