45:1 Then Joseph 3130 could 3201 8804 not refrain 662 8692 himself before all them that stood 5324 8737 by him; and he cried 7121 8799, Cause 3318 0 every man 376 to go out 3318 8685 from me. And there stood 5975 8804 no man 376 with him, while Joseph 3130 made himself known 3045 8692 unto his brethren 251.

45:2 And he wept 6963 1065 aloud 5414 8799: and the Egyptians 4714 and the house 1004 of Pharaoh 6547 heard 8085 8799 8085 8799.(wept…: Heb. gave forth his voice in weeping)

45:3 And Joseph 3130 said 559 8799 unto his brethren 251, I [am] Joseph 3130; doth my father 1 yet live 2416? And his brethren 251 could 3201 8804 not answer 6030 8800 him; for they were troubled 926 8738 at his presence 6440.(troubled: or, terrified)

45:4 And Joseph 3130 said 559 8799 unto his brethren 251, Come near 5066 8798 to me, I pray you. And they came near 5066 8799. And he said 559 8799, I [am] Joseph 3130 your brother 251, whom ye sold 4376 8804 into Egypt 4714.

45:5 Now therefore be not grieved 6087 8735, nor angry 2734 8799 with yourselves 5869, that ye sold 4376 8804 me hither: for God 430 did send 7971 8804 me before you 6440 to preserve life 4241.(nor…: Heb. neither let there be anger in your eyes)

45:6 For these two years 8141 [hath] the famine 7458 [been] in 7130 the land 776: and yet [there are] five 2568 years 8141, in the which [there shall] neither 369 [be] earing 2758 nor harvest 7105.

45:7 And God 430 sent 7971 8799 me before you 6440 to preserve 7760 8800 you a posterity 7611 in the earth 776, and to save your lives 2421 8687 by a great 1419 deliverance 6413.(to preserve…: Heb. to put for you a remnant)

45:8 So now [it was] not you [that] sent 7971 8804 me hither, but God 430: and he hath made 7760 8799 me a father 1 to Pharaoh 6547, and lord 113 of all his house 1004, and a ruler 4910 8802 throughout all the land 776 of Egypt 4714.

45:9 Haste 4116 8761 ye, and go up 5927 8798 to my father 1, and say 559 8804 unto him, Thus saith 559 8804 thy son 1121 Joseph 3130, God 430 hath made 7760 8804 me lord 113 of all Egypt 4714: come down 3381 8798 unto me, tarry 5975 8799 not:

45:10 And thou shalt dwell 3427 8804 in the land 776 of Goshen 1657, and thou shalt be near 7138 unto me, thou, and thy children 1121, and thy children's 1121 children 1121, and thy flocks 6629, and thy herds 1241, and all that thou hast:

45:11 And there will I nourish 3557 8773 thee; for yet [there are] five 2568 years 8141 of famine 7458; lest thou, and thy household 1004, and all that thou hast, come to poverty 3423 8735.

45:12 And, behold, your eyes 5869 see 7200 8802, and the eyes 5869 of my brother 251 Benjamin 1144, that [it is] my mouth 6310 that speaketh 1696 8764 unto you.

45:13 And ye shall tell 5046 8689 my father 1 of all my glory 3519 in Egypt 4714, and of all that ye have seen 7200 8804; and ye shall haste 4116 8765 and bring down 3381 8689 my father 1 hither.

45:14 And he fell 5307 8799 upon his brother 251 Benjamin's 1144 neck 6677, and wept 1058 8799; and Benjamin 1144 wept 1058 8804 upon his neck 6677.

45:15 Moreover he kissed 5401 8762 all his brethren 251, and wept 1058 8799 upon them: and after 310 that his brethren 251 talked 1696 8765 with him.

45:16 And the fame 6963 thereof was heard 8085 8738 in Pharaoh's 6547 house 1004, saying 559 8800, Joseph's 3130 brethren 251 are come 935 8804: and it pleased 3190 0 5869 0 Pharaoh 6547 well 3190 8799 5869, and 5869 his servants 5650.(pleased…: Heb. was good in the eyes of Pharaoh)

45:17 And Pharaoh 6547 said 559 8799 unto Joseph 3130, Say 559 8798 unto thy brethren 251, This do 6213 8798 ye; lade 2943 8798 your beasts 1165, and go 3212 8798, get 935 8798 you unto the land 776 of Canaan 3667;

45:18 And take 3947 8798 your father 1 and your households 1004, and come 935 8798 unto me: and I will give 5414 8799 you the good 2898 of the land 776 of Egypt 4714, and ye shall eat 398 8798 the fat 2459 of the land 776.

45:19 Now thou art commanded 6680 8795, this do 6213 8798 ye; take 3947 8798 you wagons 5699 out of the land 776 of Egypt 4714 for your little ones 2945, and for your wives 802, and bring 5375 8804 your father 1, and come 935 8804.

45:20 Also 5869 regard 2347 8799 not your stuff 3627; for the good 2898 of all the land 776 of Egypt 4714 [is] yours.(regard…: Heb. let not your eye spare, etc.)

45:21 And the children 1121 of Israel 3478 did 6213 8799 so: and Joseph 3130 gave 5414 8799 them wagons 5699, according to the commandment 6310 of Pharaoh 6547, and gave 5414 8799 them provision 6720 for the way 1870.(commandment: Heb. mouth)

45:22 To all of them he gave 5414 8804 each man 376 changes 2487 of raiment 8071; but to Benjamin 1144 he gave 5414 8804 three 7969 hundred 3967 [pieces] of silver 3701, and five 2568 changes 2487 of raiment 8071.

45:23 And to his father 1 he sent 7971 8804 after this 2063 [manner]; ten 6235 asses 860 laden 5375 8802 with the good things 2898 of Egypt 4714, and ten 6235 she asses 2543 laden 5375 8802 with corn 1250 and bread 3899 and meat 4202 for his father 1 by the way 1870.(laden…: Heb. carrying)

45:24 So he sent 7971 0 his brethren 251 away 7971 8762, and they departed 3212 8799: and he said 559 8799 unto them, See that ye fall not out 7264 8799 by the way 1870.

45:25 And they went up 5927 8799 out of Egypt 4714, and came 935 8799 into the land 776 of Canaan 3667 unto Jacob 3290 their father 1,

45:26 And told 5046 8686 him, saying 559 8800, Joseph 3130 [is] yet alive 2416, and he [is] governor 4910 8802 over all the land 776 of Egypt 4714. And Jacob's heart 3820 fainted 6313 8799, for he believed 539 8689 them not.(Jacob's: Heb. his)

45:27 And they told 1696 8762 him all the words 1697 of Joseph 3130, which he had said 1696 8765 unto them: and when he saw 7200 8799 the wagons 5699 which Joseph 3130 had sent 7971 8804 to carry 5375 8800 him, the spirit 7307 of Jacob 3290 their father 1 revived 2421 8799:

45:28 And Israel 3478 said 559 8799, [It is] enough 7227; Joseph 3130 my son 1121 [is] yet alive 2416: I will go 3212 8799 and see him 7200 8799 before I die 4191 8799.
