Genesis 42:27 And as one of them opened his sack to give his ass provender in the inn, he espied his money; for, behold, it was in his sack' s mouth. Genesis 42:28 And he said unto his brethren, My money is restored; and, lo, it is even in my sack: and their heart failed them , and they were afraid, saying one to another, What is this that God hath done unto us? Genesis 43:12 And take double money in your hand; and the money that was brought again in the mouth of your sacks, carry it again in your hand; peradventure it was an oversight: Genesis 43:18 And the men were afraid, because they were brought into Joseph' s house; and they said, Because of the money that was returned in our sacks at the first time are we brought in; that he may seek occasion against us, and fall upon us, and take us for bondmen, and our asses. Genesis 43:21 And it came to pass, when we came to the inn, that we opened our sacks, and, behold, every man' s money was in the mouth of his sack, our money in full weight: and we have brought it again in our hand. Genesis 43:22 And other money have we brought down in our hands to buy food: we cannot tell who put our money in our sacks. Genesis 43:23 And he said, Peace be to you, fear not: your God, and the God of your father, hath given you treasure in your sacks: I had your money. And he brought Simeon out unto them. Genesis 44:1 And he commanded the steward of his house, saying, Fill the men' s sacks with food, as much as they can carry, and put every man' s money in his sack' s mouth. Genesis 44:2 And put my cup, the silver cup, in the sack' s mouth of the youngest, and his corn money. And he did according to the word that Joseph had spoken. Genesis 44:8 Behold, the money, which we found in our sacks’ mouths, we brought again unto thee out of the land of Canaan: how then should we steal out of thy lord’s house silver or gold? Genesis 44:11 Then they speedily took down every man his sack to the ground, and opened every man his sack. Genesis 44:12 And he searched, and began at the eldest, and left at the youngest: and the cup was found in Benjamin' s sack.
