God’s Word Translation
Genesis 45:5-8
5Now, don’t be sad or angry with yourselves that you sold me. God sent me ahead of you to save lives.
6The famine has been in the land for two years. There will be five more years without plowing or harvesting.
7God sent me ahead of you to make sure that you would have descendants on the earth and to save your lives in an amazing way.
8It wasn’t you who sent me here, but God. He has made me ⌞like⌟ a father to Pharaoh, lord over his entire household, and ruler of Egypt.
