Genesis 45:4-7

4And Joseph said to his brethren, Come near to me, I pray you. And they came near. And he said, I am Joseph your brother, whom ye sold into Egypt.

5And now, be not grieved, and be not angry with yourselves, that ye sold me hither, for 1God sent me before you to preserve life.

6For the famine has been these two years in the land; and yet there are five years in which there will be neither ploughing nor harvest.

7So 2God sent me before you to preserve you a remnant in the earth, and to save you alive by a great deliverance.
