1599 Geneva Bible
14 ¶ So Judah and his brethren came to Joseph’s house (for he was yet there) and they fell before him on the ground.
15 Then Joseph said unto them, What act is this, which ye have done? know ye not that such a man as I, can divine and prophesy?
16 Then said Judah, What shall we say unto my lord? what shall we speak? and how can we justify ourselves? [a]God hath found out the wickedness of thy servants: behold, we are servants to my lord, both we, and he, with whom the cup is found.
