So he did as Joseph said. <\/br><strong>3<\/strong> And at dawn the men, with their asses, were sent away. <\/br><strong>4<\/strong> And when they had gone only a little way out of the town, Joseph said to the servant who was over his house, Go after them; and when you overtake them, say to them, Why have you done evil in reward for good? <\/br><strong>5<\/strong> Is not this the cup from which my lord takes wine and by which he gets knowledge of the future? Truly, you have done evil. <\/br><strong>6<\/strong> So he overtook them and said these words to them. <\/br><strong>7<\/strong> And they said to him, Why does my lord say such words as these? far be it from your servants to do such a thing: <\/br><strong>8<\/strong> See, the money which was in the mouth of our bags we gave back to you when we came again from Canaan: how then might we take silver or gold from your lord&#8217;s house? <\/br><strong>9<\/strong> If it comes to light that any of your servants has done this, let him be put to death, and we will be your lord&#8217;s servants. <\/br><strong>10<\/strong> And he said, Let it be as you say: he in whose bag it is seen will become my servant; and you will not be responsible. <\/br><strong>11<\/strong> Then every man quickly got his bag down and undid it. <\/br><strong>12<\/strong> And he made a search, starting with the oldest and ending with the youngest; and the cup was in Benjamin&#8217;s bag. <\/br><strong>13<\/strong> Then in bitter grief they put the bags on the asses again and went back to the town. <\/br><strong>14<\/strong> So Judah and his brothers came to Joseph&#8217;s house; and he was still there: and they went down on their faces before him. <\/br><strong>15<\/strong> And Joseph said, What is this thing which you have done? had you no thought that such a man as I would have power to see what is secret? <\/br><strong>16<\/strong> And Judah said, What are we to say to my lord? how may we put ourselves right in his eyes? God has made clear the sin of your servants: now we are in your hands, we and the man in whose bag your cup was seen. <\/br><strong>17<\/strong> Then he said, Far be it from me to do so: but the man who had my cup will be my servant; and you may go back to your father in peace. <\/br><strong>18<\/strong> Then Judah came near him, and said, Let your servant say a word in my lord&#8217;s ears, and let not your wrath be burning against your servant: for you are in the place of Pharaoh to us. <\/br><strong>19<\/strong> My lord said to his servants, Have you a father or a brother? <\/br><strong>20<\/strong> And we said to my lord, We have an old father and a young child, whom he had when he was old; his brother is dead and he is the only son of his mother, and is very dear to his father. <\/br><strong>21<\/strong> And you said to your servants, Let him come down to me with you, so that I may see him. <\/br><strong>22<\/strong> And we said to my lord, His father will not let him go; for if he went away his father would come to his death. <\/br><strong>23<\/strong> But you said to your servants, If your youngest brother does not come with you, you will not see my face again. <\/br><strong>24<\/strong> And when we went back to your servant, our father, we gave him an account of my lord&#8217;s words. <\/br><strong>25<\/strong> And our father said, Go again and get us a little food. <\/br><strong>26<\/strong> And we said, Only if our youngest brother goes with us will we go down; for we may not see the man&#8217;s face again if our youngest brother is not with us. <\/br><strong>27<\/strong> And our father said to us, You have knowledge that my wife gave me two sons; <\/br><strong>28<\/strong> The one went away from me, and I said, Truly he has come to a violent death; and from that time I have not seen him, <\/br><strong>29<\/strong> If now you take this one from me, and some evil comes to him, you will make my grey head go down in sorrow to the underworld. <\/br><strong>30<\/strong> If then I go back to your servant, my father, without the boy, because his life and the boy&#8217;s life are one, <\/br><strong>31<\/strong> When he sees that the boy is not with us, he will come to his death, and our father&#8217;s grey head will go down in sorrow to the underworld. <\/br><strong>32<\/strong> For I made myself responsible for the boy to my father, saying, If I do not give him safely back to you, let mine be the sin for ever. <\/br><strong>33<\/strong> So now let me be my lord&#8217;s servant here in place of the boy, and let him go back with his brothers. <\/br><strong>34<\/strong> For how may I go back to my father without the boy, and see the evil which will come on my father? <\/br><script type=\"text\/javascript\">\n
