1 Then Joseph <03130> could <03201> (8804) not refrain <0662> (8692) himself before all them that stood <05324> (8737) by him; and he cried <07121> (8799), Cause <03318> <00> every man <0376> to go out <03318> (8685) from me. And there stood <05975> (8804) no man <0376> with him, while Joseph <03130> made himself known <03045> (8692) unto his brethren <0251>.
2 And he wept <06963> <01065> aloud <05414> (8799): and the Egyptians <04714> and the house <01004> of Pharaoh <06547> heard <08085> (8799) <08085> (8799).
3 And Joseph <03130> said <0559> (8799) unto his brethren <0251>, I am Joseph <03130>; doth my father <01> yet live <02416>? And his brethren <0251> could <03201> (8804) not answer <06030> (8800) him; for they were troubled <0926> (8738) at his presence <06440>.
4 And Joseph <03130> said <0559> (8799) unto his brethren <0251>, Come near <05066> (8798) to me, I pray you. And they came near <05066> (8799). And he said <0559> (8799), I am Joseph <03130> your brother <0251>, whom ye sold <04376> (8804) into Egypt <04714>.
5 Now therefore be not grieved <06087> (8735), nor angry <02734> (8799) with yourselves <05869>, that ye sold <04376> (8804) me hither: for God <0430> did send <07971> (8804) me before you <06440> to preserve life <04241>.
6 For these two years <08141> hath the famine <07458> been in <07130> the land <0776>: and yet there are five <02568> years <08141>, in the which there shall neither <0369> be earing <02758> nor harvest <07105>.
7 And God <0430> sent <07971> (8799) me before you <06440> to preserve <07760> (8800) you a posterity <07611> in the earth <0776>, and to save your lives <02421> (8687) by a great <01419> deliverance <06413>.
8 So now it was not you that sent <07971> (8804) me hither, but God <0430>: and he hath made <07760> (8799) me a father <01> to Pharaoh <06547>, and lord <0113> of all his house <01004>, and a ruler <04910> (8802) throughout all the land <0776> of Egypt <04714>.
9 Haste <04116> (8761) ye, and go up <05927> (8798) to my father <01>, and say <0559> (8804) unto him, Thus saith <0559> (8804) thy son <01121> Joseph <03130>, God <0430> hath made <07760> (8804) me lord <0113> of all Egypt <04714>: come down <03381> (8798) unto me, tarry <05975> (8799) not:
10 And thou shalt dwell <03427> (8804) in the land <0776> of Goshen <01657>, and thou shalt be near <07138> unto me, thou, and thy children <01121>, and thy children#s <01121> children <01121>, and thy flocks <06629>, and thy herds <01241>, and all that thou hast:
11 And there will I nourish <03557> (8773) thee; for yet there are five <02568> years <08141> of famine <07458> ; lest thou, and thy household <01004>, and all that thou hast, come to poverty <03423> (8735).
12 And, behold, your eyes <05869> see <07200> (8802), and the eyes <05869> of my brother <0251> Benjamin <01144>, that it is my mouth <06310> that speaketh <01696> (8764) unto you.
13 And ye shall tell <05046> (8689) my father <01> of all my glory <03519> in Egypt <04714>, and of all that ye have seen <07200> (8804); and ye shall haste <04116> (8765) and bring down <03381> (8689) my father <01> hither.
14 And he fell <05307> (8799) upon his brother <0251> Benjamin#s <01144> neck <06677>, and wept <01058> (8799); and Benjamin <01144> wept <01058> (8804) upon his neck <06677>.
15 Moreover he kissed <05401> (8762) all his brethren <0251>, and wept <01058> (8799) upon them: and after <0310> that his brethren <0251> talked <01696> (8765) with him.
16 And the fame <06963> thereof was heard <08085> (8738) in Pharaoh#s <06547> house <01004>, saying <0559> (8800), Joseph#s <03130> brethren <0251> are come <0935> (8804): and it pleased <03190> <00> <05869> <00> Pharaoh <06547> well <03190> (8799) <05869>, and <05869> his servants <05650>.
17 And Pharaoh <06547> said <0559> (8799) unto Joseph <03130>, Say <0559> (8798) unto thy brethren <0251>, This do <06213> (8798) ye; lade <02943> (8798) your beasts <01165>, and go <03212> (8798), get <0935> (8798) you unto the land <0776> of Canaan <03667>;
18 And take <03947> (8798) your father <01> and your households <01004>, and come <0935> (8798) unto me: and I will give <05414> (8799) you the good <02898> of the land <0776> of Egypt <04714>, and ye shall eat <0398> (8798) the fat <02459> of the land <0776>.
19 Now thou art commanded <06680> (8795), this do <06213> (8798) ye; take <03947> (8798) you wagons <05699> out of the land <0776> of Egypt <04714> for your little ones <02945>, and for your wives <0802>, and bring <05375> (8804) your father <01>, and come <0935> (8804).
20 Also <05869> regard <02347> (8799) not your stuff <03627>; for the good <02898> of all the land <0776> of Egypt <04714> is yours.
21 And the children <01121> of Israel <03478> did <06213> (8799) so: and Joseph <03130> gave <05414> (8799) them wagons <05699>, according to the commandment <06310> of Pharaoh <06547>, and gave <05414> (8799) them provision <06720> for the way <01870>.
22 To all of them he gave <05414> (8804) each man <0376> changes <02487> of raiment <08071>; but to Benjamin <01144> he gave <05414> (8804) three <07969> hundred <03967> pieces of silver <03701>, and five <02568> changes <02487> of raiment <08071>.
23 And to his father <01> he sent <07971> (8804) after this <02063> manner; ten <06235> asses <0860> laden <05375> (8802) with the good things <02898> of Egypt <04714>, and ten <06235> she asses <02543> laden <05375> (8802) with corn <01250> and bread <03899> and meat <04202> for his father <01> by the way <01870>.
24 So he sent <07971> <00> his brethren <0251> away <07971> (8762), and they departed <03212> (8799): and he said <0559> (8799) unto them, See that ye fall not out <07264> (8799) by the way <01870>.
25 And they went up <05927> (8799) out of Egypt <04714>, and came <0935> (8799) into the land <0776> of Canaan <03667> unto Jacob <03290> their father <01>,
26 And told <05046> (8686) him, saying <0559> (8800), Joseph <03130> is yet alive <02416>, and he is governor <04910> (8802) over all the land <0776> of Egypt <04714>. And Jacob#s heart <03820> fainted <06313> (8799), for he believed <0539> (8689) them not.
27 And they told <01696> (8762) him all the words <01697> of Joseph <03130>, which he had said <01696> (8765) unto them: and when he saw <07200> (8799) the wagons <05699> which Joseph <03130> had sent <07971> (8804) to carry <05375> (8800) him, the spirit <07307> of Jacob <03290> their father <01> revived <02421> (8799):
28 And Israel <03478> said <0559> (8799), It is enough <07227>; Joseph <03130> my son <01121> is yet alive <02416>: I will go <03212> (8799) and see him <07200> (8799) before I die <04191> (8799).
