Genesis 44:3-5
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition
3 As soon as the morning was light, the men were sent away with their donkeys. 4 When they had gone only a short distance from the city, Joseph said to his steward, ‘Go, follow after the men; and when you overtake them, say to them, “Why have you returned evil for good? Why have you stolen my silver cup?[a] 5 Is it not from this that my lord drinks? Does he not indeed use it for divination? You have done wrong in doing this.”’
