Genesis 50:19-25

19But Joseph said to them, “Do not be afraid, for am I in God’s place? 20As for you, 1you meant evil against me, but God meant it for good in order to bring about 2this present result, to keep many people alive. 21So therefore, do not be afraid; 3I will provide for you and your little ones.” So he comforted them and spoke 4kindly to them.

22Now Joseph stayed in Egypt, he and his father’s household, and Joseph lived 110 years. 23Joseph saw the third generation of Ephraim’s sons; also the sons of Machir, the son of Manasseh, were 5born on Joseph’s knees. 24Joseph said to his brothers, “6I am about to die, but God will assuredly 7take care of you and bring you up from this land to the land which He 8promised on oath to 9Abraham, to 10Isaac, and to 11Jacob.” 25Then Joseph made the sons of Israel swear, saying, “God will assuredly 12take care of you, and 13you shall carry my bones up from here.”
