4 |Please come closer to me,| Joseph said to his brothers. When they did so, he said, |I am Joseph, the brother you sold into slavery in Egypt! 5 Now, don't be sad or angry with yourselves that you sold me. God sent me ahead of you to save lives. 6 The famine has been in the land for two years. There will be five more years without plowing or harvesting. 7 God sent me ahead of you to make sure that you would have descendants on the earth and to save your lives in an amazing way.
