RF GEN 44:1 Joseph Discovers himself to his brothers.
Afterwards he commanded his steward, saying; "Fill the loads of these men with food as much as they are able to carry, and put the money of each on the top of the carts;
RF GEN 44:2 and my cup, the cup of silver, place at the top of the load of the youngest, with the money for his corn." So they did as Joseph ordered.
RF GEN 44:3 At morning-light the men went off with their asses.
RF GEN 44:4 When they had gone not far from the city, Joseph said to his steward, "Mount and follow those men; secure them, and say to them, Why have you returned evil for good?
RF GEN 44:5 Where is that my lord drinks from? He is very sharp-sighted. He saw what you were doing!"
RF GEN 44:6 So he pursued, and said this to them.
RF GEN 44:7 But they replied; "Why has my lord spoken these words accusing your servants of having done such a thing?
RF GEN 44:8 You know we returned to you from the land of Canaan the money which we found in the top of our loads. We have not stolen silver or gold from the house of your lord.
RF GEN 44:9 If it is found with any of your servants, kill him, and we also will be slaves to my lord."
RF GEN 44:10 And he replied, "It shall be as you say; Therefore with whoever of you it is, he shall be my slave, and you shall be innocent."
RF GEN 44:11 Then they hastened and each one unloaded his load,
RF GEN 44:12 and he searched beginning at the eldest to the youngest, and found the cup in Benjamin's load.
RF GEN 44:13 Then they tore their garments, and mounted each man his ass and returned to the city.
RF GEN 44:14 When Judah and his brothers came to Joseph's house, and were again brought in, they fell on their faces to the ground.
RF GEN 44:15 While Joseph said to them, "How has this occurred that you have committed? Did you not know that I observe what happens around me?"
RF GEN 44:16 Then Judah replied, "What can I say to my lord? What assert? or how vindicate myself? GOD has found out the sin of your slaves in their hands;—alas! we are slaves to my lord! both we, and the one in whose hand the cup was found!"
RF GEN 44:17 But he answered and said "Far be it from me to act thus. The one in whose possession the cup was found, he shall be a slave to me, but you can go in peace to your father."
RF GEN 44:18 Then Judah approached him and said; "To me, my lord, grant now for your slave to speak to the ears of my lord, and let not your anger burn with your slave;—for you are to me like Pharaoh.
RF GEN 44:19 My lord asked of his slaves, saying, 'Have you a father, or brother living?'
RF GEN 44:20 and we replied to my lord, 'A father lives with us; an old man, and a lad of his old age, the youngest; but his brother is dead. And beside him there is none from his mother, so his father loves him.'
RF GEN 44:21 Then you said to your slaves, Bring him to me, that I may set my eyes on him.'
RF GEN 44:22 But we replied to my lord, The youth is not able to leave his father; for if he leaves his father then he will die.'
RF GEN 44:23 You, however, said to your slaves, If you do not bring down your youngest brother with you, you shall not again see my face.'
RF GEN 44:24 And when we went up to your slave, my father, he was informed of the demand of my lord,
RF GEN 44:25 so that when our father said, 'Return and buy us a little food,'
RF GEN 44:26 we replied We cannot go down unless our youngest brother is with us. Even should we descend, we cannot see the face of the man unless our youngest brother is with us. '
RF GEN 44:27 Then your slave, my father, said to us, You know that my wife bore me two lads, and one went from me,
RF GEN 44:28 and I said, alas! he has been torn to pieces, and I shall see him no more.
RF GEN 44:29 And if you take this one from my face, and an accident should happen to him, you will bring my grey hairs with sorrow to the grave.'
RF GEN 44:30 So now if I should go to your slave, my father, and the youth is not with us, whose life is bound to his life,
RF GEN 44:31 it will be then when he sees that the youth is not with us, he will die, and your slave will cause the grey hairs of your slave, our father, to go down in agony to the grave.
RF GEN 44:32 Besides, your slave pledged himself for the youth to my father, saying, 'If we do not bring him back to you, then let me be banished from my father all my days.'
RF GEN 44:33 So now, I pray, let your slave remain, instead of the youth, a slave to my lord, and let the youth return with his brothers;
RF GEN 44:34 for if I go up to my father, and the youth is not with me, then I shall see the misery that will come upon my father"
