1And Joseph commanded the steward of his house, saying: Fill their sacks with corn, as much as they can hold: and put the money of every one in the top of his sack.
Genesis 42:25, Genesis 42:25, Genesis 43:16, Genesis 43:16, Isaiah 3:1
2And in the mouth of the younger's sack put my silver cup, and the price which he gave for the wheat. And it was so done.
2 Corinthians 8:8, 2 Corinthians 8:8, Deuteronomy 8:16, Matthew 10:16, Genesis 42:15
3And when the morning arose, they were sent away with their asses.
4And when they were now departed out of the city, and had gone forward a little way: Joseph sending for the steward of his house, said: Arise, and pursue after the men: and when thou hast overtaken them, say to them: Why have you returned evil for good?
John 10:32, Psalms 35:12, John 10:32, Psalms 35:12, 1 Samuel 24:17
5The cup which you have stolen, is that in which my lord drinketh, and in which he is wont to divine: you have done a very evil thing.
Genesis 30:27, Genesis 30:27, Deuteronomy 18:10, Deuteronomy 18:14, Leviticus 19:26
6He did as he had commanded him. And having overtaken them, he spoke to them the same words.
7And they answered: Why doth our lord speak so, as though thy servants had committed so heinous a fact?
Genesis 38:16, Genesis 38:18, Genesis 38:16, Genesis 38:18, Ecclesiastes 7:1
8The money, that we found in the top of our sacks, we brought back to thee from the land of Chanaan: how then should it be that we should steal out of thy lord's house, gold or silver?
Genesis 43:21, Genesis 43:22, Genesis 42:27, Genesis 42:21, Deuteronomy 5:19
9With whomsoever of thy servants shall be found that which thou seekest, let him die, and we will be the bondmen of my lord.
Genesis 31:32, Genesis 31:32, Acts 25:11, Genesis 44:16, Job 31:38
10And he said to them: Let it be according to your sentence: with whomsoever it shall be found, let him be my servant, and you shall be blameless.
Matthew 18:24, Matthew 18:25, Exodus 22:3, Genesis 44:17, Genesis 44:33
11Then they speedily took down their sacks to the ground, and every man opened his sack.
12Which when he had searched, beginning at the eldest, and ending at the youngest, he found the cup in Benjamin's sack.
Genesis 44:2, Genesis 43:14, Genesis 44:26, Genesis 44:32, Genesis 43:33
13Then they rent their garments, and loading their asses again, returned into the town.

Genesis 3:13, Genesis 4:10, Exodus 32:1, Genesis 39:8, Genesis 44:4
16And Juda said to him: What shall we answer my lord? or what shall we say, or be able justly to allege? God hath found out the iniquity of thy servants: behold, we are all bondmen to my lord, both we, and he with whom the cup was found.
Genesis 44:9, Genesis 44:9, Daniel 9:7, Daniel 9:7, Numbers 32:23
17Joseph answered: God forbid that I should do so: he that stole the cup, he shall be my bondman: and go you away free to your father.
Genesis 42:18, Proverbs 17:15, Genesis 37:32, Genesis 37:33, 2 Samuel 23:3
18Then Juda coming nearer, said boldly: I beseech thee, my lord, let thy servant speak a word in thy ears, and be not angry with thy servant: for after Pharao thou art.
Exodus 32:22, Exodus 32:22, Genesis 18:30, Genesis 41:40, Genesis 18:30
19My lord. Thou didst ask thy servants the first time: Have you a father or a brother.
Genesis 43:7, Genesis 43:7, Genesis 42:7, Genesis 42:10, Genesis 43:29
20And we answered thee, my lord: We have a father an old man, and a young boy, that was born in his old age; whose brother by the mother is dead; and he alone is left of his mother, and his father loveth him tenderly.
Genesis 37:3, Genesis 37:3, Genesis 42:38, Genesis 42:38, Luke 7:12
21And thou saidst to thy servants: Bring him hither to me, and I will set my eyes on him.
Genesis 42:15, Genesis 42:15, Genesis 42:20, Genesis 42:20, Genesis 43:29
22We suggested to my lord: The boy cannot leave his father: for if he leave him, he will die.
Genesis 44:30, Genesis 42:38, Genesis 44:30, Genesis 42:38
23And thou saidst to thy servants: Except your youngest brother come with you, you shall see my face no more.
Genesis 43:3, Genesis 43:5, Genesis 43:3, Genesis 43:5, Genesis 42:15
24Therefore when we were gone up to thy servant our father, we told him all that my lord had said.
Genesis 42:29, Genesis 42:34, Genesis 42:29, Genesis 42:34
25And our father said: Go again, and buy us a little wheat.
Genesis 43:2, Genesis 43:2, Genesis 43:5, Genesis 43:5
26And we said to him: We cannot go: if our youngest brother go down with us, we will set out together: otherwise, without him we dare not see the man's face.
Luke 11:7, Genesis 43:4, Genesis 43:5, Luke 11:7, Genesis 43:4
27Whereunto he answered: You know that my wife bore me two.
Genesis 46:19, Genesis 46:19, Genesis 30:22, Genesis 30:25, Genesis 35:16
28One went out, and you said: A beast devoured him; and hitherto he appeareth not.
Genesis 37:33, Genesis 37:33, Genesis 42:36, Genesis 42:38, Genesis 37:13

Genesis 42:38, Genesis 42:38, Genesis 43:14, Genesis 43:14, Deuteronomy 31:17
30Therefore, if I shall go to thy servant, our father, and the boy be wanting, (whereas his life dependeth upon the life of him,)
1 Samuel 18:1, 1 Samuel 18:1, Genesis 44:34, Genesis 44:31, Genesis 44:17
31And he shall see that he is not with us, he will die, and thy servants shall bring down his grey hairs with sorrow unto hell.
Genesis 44:29, Genesis 44:29, Genesis 37:35, Genesis 37:35, 1 Samuel 22:22
32Let me be thy proper servant, who took him into my trust, and promised, saying: If I bring him not again, I will be guilty of sin against my father for ever.
Genesis 43:16, Genesis 43:8, Genesis 43:9, Genesis 43:16, Genesis 43:8
33Therefore I, thy servant, will stay instead of the boy in the service of my lord, and let the boy go up with his brethren.
1 John 3:16, 1 John 3:16, Hebrews 7:22, Romans 5:7, Romans 5:10
34For I cannot return to my father without the boy, lest I be a witness of the calamity that will oppress my father.
