4 When they had gone out of the city, and were not yet far off, Joseph said to his steward, “Get up, follow the men; and when you overtake them, say to them, ‘Why have you arepaid evil for good?  
5 Is not this the one from which my lord drinks, and with which he indeed practices divination? You have done evil in so doing.’ ”
6 So he overtook them, and he spoke to them these same words.
7 And they said to him, “Why does my lord say these words? Far be it from us that your servants should do such a thing.
8 Look, we brought back to you from the land of Canaan athe money which we found in the mouth of our sacks. How then could we steal silver or gold from your lord’s house?  
9 With whomever of your servants it is found, alet him die, and we also will be my lord’s slaves.”  
10 And he said, “Now also let it be according to your words; he with whom it is found shall be my slave, and you shall be blameless.”
11 Then each man speedily let down his sack to the ground, and each opened his sack.
12 So he searched. He began with the oldest and1 left off with the youngest; and the cup was found in Benjamin’s sack.  
13 Then they atore their clothes, and each man loaded his donkey and returned to the city.  
14 So Judah and his brothers came to Joseph’s house, and he was still there; and they afell before him on the ground.  
15 And Joseph said to them, “What deed is this you have done? Did you not know that such a man as I can certainly practice divination?”
