Genesis 45:5-8 So now, do not be distressed and do not be angry with yourselves that you sold me here, for God sent me as deliverance before you.

VIN⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁵ So now, do not be distressed and do not be angry with yourselves that you sold me here, for God sent me as deliverance before you. ⁶ For these two years the famine has been in the land, and there are yet five years, in which there will be no plowing and no harvest. ⁷ And God sent me before you to preserve for you a remnant in the earth, and to save your lives by a great deliverance. ⁸ »It was not you who sent me here, but God. He has made me like a father to Pharaoh. He made me lord over his entire household, and ruler of Egypt.
