4 Then Joseph said to his brothers, |Come near to me, please. |So they moved closer. And he said, |I am Joseph, your brother, whom you sold into Egypt. 5 Now do not be upset or angry with yourselves that you sold me here, for God sent me before you to preserve life. 6 For the famine has been in the land these two years, and there will be five more years in which there will be neither plowing nor harvest. 7 God sent me ahead of you to preserve for you a remnant on the earth, and to save your lives by a great deliverance.
