Genesis 45:5-8 Now therefore be not grieved, nor let it afflict you that you sold me hither; for God sent me before you for life.

Thomson⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁵ Now therefore be not grieved, nor let it afflict you that you sold me hither; for God sent me before you for life. ⁶ For this is but the second year of famine on the earth and there will be yet five years, in which there will be neither tillage nor harvest, ⁷ so that God hath sent me before you to preserve for you a remnant on the earth and to nourish your great remnant. ⁸ Now therefore it was not you who sent me hither, but it was God. And he hath made me like a father to Pharao, and lord of all his house and governor of all the land of Egypt.
