Genesis 45:5-11

5And now don’t be grieved or angry with yourselves for selling me here, because God sent me ahead of you to preserve life.

6For the famine has been in the land these two years, and there will be five more years without plowing or harvesting.

7God sent me ahead of you to establish you as a remnant within the land and to keep you alive by a great deliverance.

8Therefore it was not you who sent me here, but God. He has made me a father to Pharaoh, lord of his entire household, and ruler over all the land of Egypt.

9“Return quickly to my father and say to him, ‘This is what your son Joseph says: “God has made me lord of all Egypt. Come down to me without delay.

10You can settle in the land of Goshen and be near me — you, your children, and your grandchildren, your flocks, your herds, and all you have.

11There I will sustain you, for there will be five more years of famine. Otherwise, you, your household, and everything you have will become destitute.”’
