01:045:003 And Joseph said unto his brethren, I am Joseph; doth my father
           yet live?  And his brethren could not answer him; for they were
           troubled at his presence.

01:045:004 And Joseph said unto his brethren, Come near to me, I pray
           you.  And they came near.  And he said, I am Joseph your
           brother, whom ye sold into Egypt.

01:045:005 Now therefore be not grieved, nor angry with yourselves, that
           ye sold me hither:  for God did send me before you to preserve
           life.

01:045:006 For these two years hath the famine been in the land:  and yet
           there are five years, in the which there shall neither be
           earing nor harvest.

01:045:007 And God sent me before you to preserve you a posterity in the
           earth, and to save your lives by a great deliverance.

01:045:008 So now it was not you that sent me hither, but God:  and he
           hath made me a father to Pharaoh, and lord of all his house,
           and a ruler throughout all the land of Egypt.

01:045:009 Haste ye, and go up to my father, and say unto him, Thus saith
           thy son Joseph, God hath made me lord of all Egypt:  come down
           unto me, tarry not: 

01:045:010 And thou shalt dwell in the land of Goshen, and thou shalt be
           near unto me, thou, and thy children, and thy children’s
           children, and thy flocks, and thy herds, and all that thou
           hast: 

01:045:011 And there will I nourish thee; for yet there are five years of
           famine; lest thou, and thy household, and all that thou hast,
           come to poverty.

01:045:012 And, behold, your eyes see, and the eyes of my brother
           Benjamin, that it is my mouth that speaketh unto you.

01:045:013 And ye shall tell my father of all my glory in Egypt, and of
           all that ye have seen; and ye shall haste and bring down my
           father hither.

01:045:014 And he fell upon his brother Benjamin’s neck, and wept; and
           Benjamin wept upon his neck.

01:045:015 Moreover he kissed all his brethren, and wept upon them:  and
           after that his brethren talked with him.

01:045:016 And the fame thereof was heard in Pharaoh’s house, saying,
           Joseph’s brethren are come:  and it pleased Pharaoh well, and
           his servants.

01:045:017 And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, Say unto thy brethren, This do
           ye; lade your beasts, and go, get you unto the land of Canaan;

01:045:018 And take your father and your households, and come unto me: 
           and I will give you the good of the land of Egypt, and ye
           shall eat the fat of the land.

01:045:019 Now thou art commanded, this do ye; take you wagons out of the
           land of Egypt for your little ones, and for your wives, and
           bring your father, and come.
