7 they said to him: “Why does my lord say such things? Far be it from your servants to do such a thing!
8 We even brought back to you from the land of Canaan the money that we found in the mouths of our bags. How could we steal silver or gold from your master’s house?
9 If any of your servants is found to have the goblet, he shall die, and as for the rest of us, we shall become my lord’s slaves.”
10 But he replied, “Now what you propose is fair enough, but only the one who is found to have it shall become my slave, and the rest of you can go free.”
11 Then each of them quickly lowered his bag to the ground and opened it;
12 and when a search was made, starting with the oldest and ending with the youngest, the goblet turned up in Benjamin’s bag.
13 At this, they tore their garments. Then, when each man had loaded his donkey again, they returned to the city.
