Genesis 45:9-13

9Hurry and go up to my father, and 1say to him, ‘Thus says your son Joseph, “God has made me lord of all Egypt; come down to me, do not delay.

10You shall 2live in the land of 3Goshen, and you shall be near me, you and your children and your children’s children and your flocks and your herds and all that you have.

11There I will also 4provide for you, for there are still five years of famine to come, and you and your household and all that you have would be impoverished.”’

12Behold, your eyes see, and the eyes of my brother Benjamin see, that it is my mouth which is speaking to you.

13Now you must tell my father of all my splendor in Egypt, and all that you have seen; and you must hurry and 5bring my father down here.”
