Genesis 45:4-6
International Standard Version
4 Joseph implored his brothers, “Please come close to me.” So they did.
“I’m your brother Joseph, whom you sold into slavery in[a] Egypt!” he told them. 5 “But[b] don’t be distressed or angry at yourselves because you sold me here, because God sent me ahead of you all in order to deliver us.[c] 6 That’s because this famine has been going on for two years now in this region, and there are still five years left, during which there won’t be any plowing or harvesting.
