- So Judah said, "What can we say to my lord? What can we speak? And how can we justify ourselves? God has found out the iniquity of your servants; behold, we are my lord's slaves, both we and the one in whose possession the cup has been found."
- But he said, "Far be it from me to do this. The man in whose possession the cup has been found, he shall be my slave; but as for you, go up in peace to your father."
- Then Judah approached him, and said, "Oh my lord, may your servant please speak a word in my lord's ears, and do not be angry with your servant; for you are equal to Pharaoh.
- "My lord asked his servants, saying, 'Have you a father or a brother?'
- "We said to my lord, 'We have an old father and a little child of his old age Now his brother is dead, so he alone is left of his mother, and his father loves him.'

- 犹大说,我们对我主说什么呢。还有什么话可说呢。我们怎能自己表白出来呢。神已经查出仆人的罪孽了。我们与那在他手中搜出杯来的都是我主的奴仆。
- 约瑟说,我断不能这样行。在谁的手中搜出杯来,谁就作我的奴仆。至于你们,可以平平安安地上你们父亲那里去。
- 犹大挨近他,说,我主阿,求你容仆人说一句话给我主听,不要向仆人发烈怒,因为你如同法老一样。
- 我主曾问仆人们说,你们有父亲有兄弟没有。
- 我们对我主说,我们有父亲,已经年老,还有他老年所生的一个小孩子。他哥哥死了,他母亲只撇下他一人,他父亲疼爱他。
