At the place where they lodged for the night, one of them opened his sack to get feed for his donkey, and he saw his silver in the mouth of the sack.
Read word by word“My silver has been returned!” he said to his brothers. “It is here in my sack.” Their hearts sank, and trembling, they turned to one another and said, “What is this that God has done to us?”
Read word by wordTake double the silver with you so that you may return the silver that was put back into the mouths of your sacks. Perhaps it was a mistake.
Read word by wordBut the brothers were frightened that they had been taken to Joseph’s house. “We have been brought here because of the silver that was returned in our bags the first time,” they said. “They intend to overpower us and take us as slaves, along with our donkeys.”
Read word by wordBut when we came to the place we lodged for the night, we opened our sacks and, behold, each of us found his silver in the mouth of his sack! It was the full amount of our silver, and we have brought it back with us.
Read word by wordWe have brought additional silver with us to buy food. We do not know who put our silver in our sacks.”
Read word by word“It is fine,” said the steward. “Do not be afraid. Your God, the God of your father, gave you the treasure that was in your sacks. I received your silver.” Then he brought Simeon out to them.
Read word by wordThen Joseph instructed his steward: “Fill the men’s sacks with as much food as they can carry, and put each one’s silver in the mouth of his sack.
Read word by wordPut my cup, the silver one, in the mouth of the youngest one’s sack, along with the silver for his grain.” So the steward did as Joseph had instructed.
Read word by wordWe even brought back to you from the land of Canaan the silver we found in the mouths of our sacks. Why would we steal silver or gold from your master’s house?
Read word by wordSo each one quickly lowered his sack to the ground and opened it.
Read word by wordThe steward searched, beginning with the oldest and ending with the youngest—and the cup was found in Benjamin’s sack.
