Judah: "A thief and his companions are taken together."

Joseph: "If you could prevail upon yourselves to report
to your father concerning a brother that had not stolen, and
had brought no manner of shame upon you, that a wild
beast had torn him, you will easily persuade yourselves to
say it concerning a brother that hath stolen, and hath
brought shame upon you. Go hence, and tell your father,
'The rope follows after the water bucket.'[264] But," continued
Joseph, shaking his purple mantle, "God forbid that
I should accuse you all of theft. Only the youth that stole
the cup in order to divine his brother's whereabouts shall
remain with me as my bondman; but as for you, get you up
in peace unto your father."
