Genesis 45
New International Version (1984) Help
45Then Joseph could no longer control himself before all his attendants, and he cried out, "Have everyone leave my presence!" So there was no one with Joseph when he made himself known to his brothers.H3130H3201H662H5324H7121H3318H376H3318H5975H376H3130H3045H251
2And he wept so loudly that the Egyptians heard him, and Pharaoh's household heard about it.H6963H1065H5414H4714H1004H6547H8085H8085
3Joseph said to his brothers, "I am Joseph! Is my father still living?" But his brothers were not able to answer him, because they were terrified at his presence.H3130H559H251H3130H1H2416H251H3201H6030H926H6440
4Then Joseph said to his brothers, "Come close to me." When they had done so, he said, "I am your brother Joseph, the one you sold into Egypt!H3130H559H251H5066H5066H559H3130H251H4376H4714
5And now, do not be distressed and do not be angry with yourselves for selling me here, because it was to save lives that God sent me ahead of you.H6087H2734H5869H4376H430H7971H6440H4241
6For two years now there has been famine in the land, and for the next five years there will not be plowing and reaping.H8141H7458H7130H776H2568H8141H369H2758H7105
7But God sent me ahead of you to preserve for you a remnant on earth and to save your lives by a great deliverance.H430H7971H6440H7760H7611H776H2421H1419H6413
8"So then, it was not you who sent me here, but God. He made me father to Pharaoh, lord of his entire household and ruler of all Egypt.H7971H430H7760H1H6547H113H1004H4910H776H4714
9Now hurry back to my father and say to him, 'This is what your son Joseph says: God has made me lord of all Egypt. Come down to me; don't delay.H4116H5927H1H559H559H1121H3130H430H7760H113H4714H3381H5975
10You shall live in the region of Goshen and be near me--you, your children and grandchildren, your flocks and herds, and all you have.H3427H776H1657H7138H1121H1121H1121H6629H1241
11I will provide for you there, because five years of famine are still to come. Otherwise you and your household and all who belong to you will become destitute.'H3557H2568H8141H7458H1004H3423
12"You can see for yourselves, and so can my brother Benjamin, that it is really I who am speaking to you.H5869H7200H5869H251H1144H6310H1696
13Tell my father about all the honor accorded me in Egypt and about everything you have seen. And bring my father down here quickly."H5046H1H3519H4714H7200H4116H3381H1
14Then he threw his arms around his brother Benjamin and wept, and Benjamin embraced him, weeping.H5307H251H1144H6677H1058H1144H1058H6677
15And he kissed all his brothers and wept over them. Afterward his brothers talked with him.H5401H251H1058H310H251H1696
16When the news reached Pharaoh's palace that Joseph's brothers had come, Pharaoh and all his officials were pleased.H6963H8085H6547H1004H559H3130H251H935H3190H5869H6547H3190H5869H5869H5650
17Pharaoh said to Joseph, "Tell your brothers, 'Do this: Load your animals and return to the land of Canaan,H6547H559H3130H559H251H6213H2943H1165H3212H935H776H3667
18and bring your father and your families back to me. I will give you the best of the land of Egypt and you can enjoy the fat of the land.'H3947H1H1004H935H5414H2898H776H4714H398H2459H776
19"You are also directed to tell them, 'Do this: Take some carts from Egypt for your children and your wives, and get your father and come.H6680H6213H3947H5699H776H4714H2945H802H5375H1H935
20Never mind about your belongings, because the best of all Egypt will be yours.'"H5869H2347H3627H2898H776H4714
21So the sons of Israel did this. Joseph gave them carts, as Pharaoh had commanded, and he also gave them provisions for their journey.H1121H3478H6213H3130H5414H5699H6310H6547H5414H6720H1870
22To each of them he gave new clothing, but to Benjamin he gave three hundred shekels of silver and five sets of clothes.H5414H376H2487H8071H1144H5414H7969H3967H3701H2568H2487H8071
23And this is what he sent to his father: ten donkeys loaded with the best things of Egypt, and ten female donkeys loaded with grain and bread and other provisions for his journey.H1H7971H2063H6235H860H5375H2898H4714H6235H2543H5375H1250H3899H4202H1H1870
24Then he sent his brothers away, and as they were leaving he said to them, "Don't quarrel on the way!"H7971H251H7971H3212H559H7264H1870
25So they went up out of Egypt and came to their father Jacob in the land of Canaan.H5927H4714H935H776H3667H3290H1
26They told him, "Joseph is still alive! In fact, he is ruler of all Egypt." Jacob was stunned; he did not believe them.H5046H559H3130H2416H4910H776H4714H3820H6313H539
27But when they told him everything Joseph had said to them, and when he saw the carts Joseph had sent to carry him back, the spirit of their father Jacob revived.H1696H1697H3130H1696H7200H5699H3130H7971H5375H7307H3290H1H2421
28And Israel said, "I'm convinced! My son Joseph is still alive. I will go and see him before I die."H3478H559H7227H3130H1121H2416H3212H7200H4191
