Genesis 44:15-17

GOD’S WORD Translation

¹⁵ Joseph asked them, “What have you done? Don’t you know that a man like me can find things out because he knows the future?”

¹⁶ “Sir, what can we say to you?” Judah asked. “How else can we explain it? How can we prove we’re innocent? God has uncovered our guilt. Now all of us are your slaves, including the one who had the cup.”

¹⁷ But Joseph said, “I would never think of doing that! Only the man who had the cup will be my slave. The rest of you can go back to your father in peace.”
