9 Whoever of your servants is found with it will be put to death, and we’ll be my master’s slaves."
10 He said, "Fine. We’ll do just as you’ve said. Whoever is found with it will be my slave, and the rest of you will go free."
11 Everyone quickly lowered their sacks down to the ground and each opened his sack.
