15 And when the brethren of Joseph saw that their father was dead, they said, Let us take heed, lest at any time Joseph remember evil against us, and recompense to us all the evils which we have done against him.
16 And they came to Joseph, and said, Thy father adjured us before his death, saying,
17 Thus say ye to Joseph, Forgive them their injustice and their sin, forasmuch as they have done thee evil; and now pardon the injustice of the servants of the God of thy father. And Joseph wept while they spoke to him.
18 And they came to him and said, We, these persons, are thy servants.
19 And Joseph said to them, Fear not, for I am God's.
20 Ye took counsel against me for evil, but God took counsel for me for good, that the matter might be as it is to-day, and much people might be fed.
21 And he said to them, Fear not, I will maintain you, and your families: and he comforted them, and spoke kindly to them.
