Genesis 45:4-6

New American Standard Bible 1995

⁴ Then Joseph said to his brothers, “Please come ^[a]closer to me.” And they came ^[b]closer. And he said, “I am your brother Joseph, whom you ^(A)sold into Egypt. ⁵ Now do not be grieved or angry ^[c]with yourselves, because ^(B)you sold me here, for ^(C)God sent me before you to preserve life. ⁶ For the famine has been in the land ^(D)these two years, and there are still five years in which there will be neither plowing nor harvesting.
