“Is not this it in which my lord drinketh, and whereby indeed he divineth? ye have done evil in so doing.”
Isn't this the cup my master drinks from and also uses for divination? This is a wicked thing you have done. The accusation of stealing the divination cup adds the religious significance — this is not just a valuable object but the instrument of the governor's prophetic practice. The application: the accusation that names both the object and its significance escalates the charge.
