Genesis 45:17-25

17So Pharaoh said to Joseph, “Say to your brothers: ‘Do this! Load your animals and go to the land of Canaan.

18Then get your father, your households, and come to me. I’ll give you the best of the land of Egypt, and you will eat the fat of the land.’

19You are also commanded to say: “Do this! Take for yourselves wagons from the land of Egypt for your little children and for your wives, and pick up your father and come.

20Don’t be concerned about your goods, because the best of all the land of Egypt is yours.’”

21So the sons of Israel did so. Joseph gave them carts by Pharaoh’s command and he gave them provisions for the journey.

22To each of them he gave a change of clothes, while to Benjamin he gave 300 pieces of silver and five sets of clothes.

23Also to his father he sent the following: ten donkeys carrying from the best of Egypt, and ten female donkeys carrying grain and food and provisions for his father’s journey.

24Then he sent his brothers off, and as they departed, he said to them, “Don’t be anxious on the way.”

25Then they went up from Egypt and came to the land of Canaan, to Jacob their father.
