Genesis 45:5-9
5NowH6258 do not be grievedH6087 or angryH2734 1with yourselvesH5869, becauseH3588 2you soldH4376 me hereH2008, for 3GodH430 sentH7971 me beforeH6440 you to preserveH4241 lifeH4241.
6For the famineH7458 has been in the landH776 4theseH2088 two yearsH8141, and there are stillH5750 fiveH2568 yearsH8141 in whichH834 thereH369 will be neitherH369 plowingH2758 norH369 harvestingH7105.
75GodH430 sentH7971 me beforeH6440 you to preserveH7760 for you a remnantH7611 in the earthH776, and to keepH2421 you aliveH2421 by a greatH1419 6deliveranceH6413.
8NowH6258, therefore, it was not you who sentH7971 me hereH2008, but GodH430; and He has madeH7760 me a 7fatherH1 to PharaohH6547 and lordH113 of allH3605 his householdH1004 and rulerH4910 over allH3605 the landH776 of EgyptH4714.
9HurryH4116 and goH5927 up to my fatherH1, and 8sayH559 to him, ‘ThusH3541 saysH559 your sonH1121 JosephH3130, “GodH430 has madeH7760 me lordH113 of allH3605 EgyptH4714; comeH3381 downH3381 to me, do not delayH5975.
