4 And Joseph said to his brethren, Come near to me, I pray you: and they came near. And he said, I am Joseph your brother, whom ye sold into Egypt. 5 Now therefore be not grieved, nor angry with yourselves, that ye sold me hither; for God sent me before you to preserve life. 6 For these two years hath the famine been in the land: and yet there are five years, in which there shall neither be tillage nor harvest. 7 And God sent me before you, to preserve for you a posterity in the earth, and to save your lives by a great deliverance.
