Genesis 44:14-16
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
14 When Judah and his brothers entered Joseph’s house, he was still there; so they flung themselves on the ground before him. 15 “How could you do such a thing?” Joseph asked them. “Did you not know that such a man as I could discern by divination what happened?” 16 Judah replied: “What can we say to my lord? How can we plead or how try to prove our innocence? God has uncovered your servants’ guilt.[a] Here we are, then, the slaves of my lord—the rest of us no less than the one in whose possession the goblet was found.”
