Genesis 45:5-15

5Now do not be grieved or angry 1with yourselves because 2you sold me here, for 3God sent me ahead of you 4to save lives. 6For the famine has been in the land 5these two years, and there are still five years in which there will be neither plowing nor harvesting. 7So 6God sent me ahead of you to ensure for you a remnant on the earth, and to 7keep you alive by a great deliverance. 8Now, therefore, it was not you who sent me here, but God; and He has made me a 8father to Pharaoh and lord of all his household, and ruler over all the land of Egypt. 9Hurry and go up to my father, and 9say to him, ‘This is what your son Joseph says: “God has made me lord of all Egypt; come down to me, do not delay. 10For you shall live in the land of 10Goshen, and you shall be near me, you and your children and your 11grandchildren, and your flocks and your herds and all that you have. 11There I will also 12provide 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 13bring my father down here.” 14Then he fell on his brother Benjamin’s neck and 14wept, and Benjamin wept on his neck. 15And he kissed all his brothers and wept on them, and afterward his brothers talked with him.
