Matthew⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ And Ioseph coulde no longer refraine before al them that stode about hym, but commaunded that they shuld go all out from hym, & that there should be no man with him, whyle he vttred him selfe vnto his brethren. ² And he wepte alowde, so that the Egypcians & the house of Pharao herd it. ³ And he said vnto his brethren: I am Ioseph, doth my father yet lyue? But his brethren coulde not answere him, for they were abasshed at hys presence. ⁴ And Ioseph sayd vnto his brethren: come nere to me, and they came nere. And he sayd: I am Ioseph youre brother whom ye solde in to Egypte. ⁵ And nowe be not greued therwyth, nether let it seme a cruel thynge in your eyes, that ye sold me hyther. For god dyd send me before you to saue lyfe. ⁶ For thys is the seconde yere of derth in the lande, and fyue mo are behynd in which there shall nether be earyng nor heruest. ⁷ Wherfore god sent me before you to make prouisyon, that ye myghte continue in the erthe and to saue youre lyues by a greate delyuerance. ⁸ So nowe it was not ye that sent me hyther, but god: and he hath made me father vnto Pharao and Lorde ouer al his house, & rueler in all the lande of Egypte. ⁹ Hast you & goo to my father & tell hym, thys sayeth thy sonne Ioseph: God hath made me Lord ouer all Egypte. Come doune vnto me, and tarye not. ¹⁰ And thou shalt dwell in the lande of Gosan and be by me: both thou and thy children, and thy chyldrens chylderen: and thy shepe, and beastes & all that thou hast. ¹¹ There wyll I make prouisyon for the: for there remayne yet .v. yeres of derth, lest thou and thy housholde and all that thou hast perysh. ¹² Beholde, youre eyes do se, and the eyes also of my brother Beniamyn, that I speake to you by mouth. ¹³ Therfore tell my father of all my honoure wych I haue in Egypt and of all that ye haue sene, and make hast and brynge my father hyther. ¹⁴ And he fell on his brother Beniamynes necke & wepte, and Beniamyn wepte on his necke. ¹⁵ Moerouer he kissed all his brethren & wepte vpon them. And after that, his brethren talked with him ¹⁶ And when the tydinges was come vnto Pharaos house that Iosephs bretheren were come it pleased Pharao wel & all his seruauntes. ¹⁷ And Pharao spake vnto Ioseph: saye vnto thy brethren, this do ye: lade youre beastes & get you hence, And when ye be come vnto the lande of Canaan, ¹⁸ take youre father and your housholdes & come vnto me, & I wyll geue you the best of the land of Egypte, and ye shall eate the fatt of the lande.
