1 And Joseph will not be able to restrain himself before all standing by him; and he will cry out, Take out every man from me: and a man stood not with him, in Joseph's making himself known to his brethren. 2 And he will give forth his voice in weeping, and the Egyptians will hear and the house of Pharaoh will hear. 3 And Joseph will say to his brethren, I am Joseph; is my father yet living? and his brethren will not be able to answer him; for they trembled from before him. 4 And Joseph will say to his brethren, Come near now to me: and they will come near, and he will say, I am Joseph, your brother, whom ye sold me into Egypt. 5 And now, ye shall not be grieved, and it shall not burn in your eyes, because ye sold me here: for God sent me before you for the preservation of life. 6 For this the second year of the famine in the midst of the land: and yet five years in which no ploughing and reaping. 7 And God will send me before you to put for you a remnant upon the earth, and to preserve life for you by a great deliverance. 8 And now not you sent me here, but God: and he placed me for a father to Pharaoh, and for lord to all his house, and ruler over all the land of Egypt.
