Genesis 50:17-21
17So shall ye sayH559 unto JosephH3130, ForgiveH5375, I pray theeH577 now, the trespassH6588 of thy brethrenH251, and their sinH2403; for they didH1580 unto thee evilH7451: and now, we pray thee, forgiveH5375 the trespassH6588 of the servantsH5650 of the GodH430 of thy fatherH1. And JosephH3130 weptH1058 when they spakeH1696 unto him.
18And his brethrenH251 also wentH3212 and fell downH5307 before his faceH6440; and they saidH559, Behold, we be thy servantsH5650.
19And JosephH3130 saidH559 unto them, FearH3372 not: for am I in the place of GodH430?
20But as for you, ye thoughtH2803 evilH7451 against me; but GodH430 meant itH2803 unto goodH2896, toH4616 bring to passH6213, as it is this dayH3117, to saveH2421 muchH7227 peopleH5971 aliveH2421.
21Now therefore fearH3372 ye not: I will nourishH3557 you, and your little onesH2945. And he comfortedH5162 them, and spakeH1696 kindlyH3820 unto them.1
