New King James Version
6 For these two years the (A)famine has been in the land, and there are still five years in which there will be neither plowing nor harvesting. 7 And God (B)sent me before you to preserve a [a]posterity for you in the earth, and to save your lives by a great deliverance. 8 So now it was not you who sent me here, but (C)God; and He has made me (D)a father to Pharaoh, and lord of all his house, and a (E)ruler throughout all the land of Egypt.
