Psalms 105:16-25

16And He 1called for a famine upon the land; He 2broke the whole staff of bread.17He 3sent a man before them, Joseph, who was 4sold as a slave.18They afflicted his 5feet with fetters, 6He himself was laid in irons;19Until the time that his 7word came to pass, The word of the Lord 8 9tested him.20The 10king sent and released him, The ruler of peoples, and set him free.21He 11made him lord of his house And ruler over all his possessions,22To 12imprison his princes 13 14at will, That he might teach his elders wisdom.23 15Israel also came into Egypt; Thus Jacob 16sojourned in the land of Ham.24And He 17caused His people to be very fruitful, And made them stronger than their adversaries.

25He 18turned their heart to hate His people, To 19deal craftily with His servants.
