³⁵ So my heavenly Father will also do to you, if you do not each forgive your brother his trespasses from your heart."

⁸ Therefore, though I have all boldness in Christ to command you that which is appropriate, ⁹ yet on the basis of love I rather appeal, being such a one as Paul, the aged, but also a prisoner of Christ Jesus. ¹⁰ I appeal to you for my child, whom I have become the father of in my chains, Onesimus, ¹¹ who once was useless to you, but now is useful to you and to me. ¹² I am sending back to you, him who is my very heart, ¹³ whom I desired to keep with me, that on your behalf he might serve me in my chains for the Good News. ¹⁴ But I was willing to do nothing without your consent, that your goodness would not be as of necessity, but of free will. ¹⁵ For perhaps he was therefore separated from you for a while, that you would have him forever, ¹⁶ no longer as a slave, but more than a slave, a beloved brother, especially to me, but how much rather to you, both in the flesh and in the Lord. ¹⁷ If then you count me a partner, receive him as you would receive me. ¹⁸ But if he has wronged you at all, or owes you anything, put that to my account. ¹⁹ I, Paul, write this with my own hand: I will repay it (not to mention to you that you owe to me even your own self besides). ²⁰ Yes, brother, let me have joy from you in the Lord. Refresh my heart in Christ.

¹⁶ Therefore confess your sins to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person is powerfully effective.

²⁹ Let peoples serve you, and nations bow down to you. Be lord over your brothers. Let your mother's sons bow down to you. Cursed be everyone who curses you. Blessed be everyone who blesses you."

⁷ And look, we were binding sheaves in the field, and look, my sheaf arose and also stood upright.

So they hated him all the more for his dreams and for what he said. ⁹ And he had another dream, and told it to his father and to his brothers, and said, "Look, I had yet another dream, and look, the sun and the moon and eleven stars bowed down to me." ¹⁰ When he told it to his father and to his brothers, his father rebuked him, and said to him, "What is this dream that you had? Will I and your mother and your brothers indeed come and bow down to the ground in front of you?" ¹¹ His brothers were jealous of him, but his father kept thinking about the matter.

⁶ Now Joseph was the ruler over the country, and it was he who sold to all the people of the land. Josephʼs brothers came and bowed themselves down to him with their faces to the ground.

¹⁹ Who doesn't respect the persons of princes, nor regards the rich more than the poor; for they all are the work of his hands. ²⁰ In a moment they die, even at midnight. The people are shaken and pass away. The mighty are taken away without a hand. ²¹ "For his eyes are on the ways of a man. He sees all his goings. ²² There is no darkness, nor thick gloom, where evildoers may hide themselves. ²³ For he doesn't need to consider a man further, that he should go before God in judgment. ²⁴ He breaks in pieces mighty men in ways past finding out, and sets others in their place. ²⁵ Therefore he takes knowledge of their works. He overturns them in the night, so that they are destroyed. ²⁶ He strikes them as wicked men in the open sight of others; ²⁷ because they turned aside from following him, and wouldn't pay attention to any of his ways, ²⁸ so that they caused the cry of the poor to come to him. He heard the cry of the afflicted. ²⁹ When he gives quietness, who then can condemn? When he hides his face, who then can see him? Alike whether to a nation, or to a man,

²⁷ But immediately Jesus spoke to them, saying "Cheer up. It is I. Do not be afraid."

³⁷ But they were terrified and filled with fear, and supposed that they had seen a spirit. ³⁸ He said to them, "Why are you troubled? Why do doubts arise in your hearts?

¹⁹ Do not seek revenge yourselves, beloved, but leave room for the wrath. For it is written, "Vengeance belongs to me; I will repay, says the Lord."

³⁰ For we know him who said, "Vengeance belongs to me; I will repay." Again, "The Lord will judge his people."

⁴ His brothers saw that their father loved him more than all his brothers, and they hated him, and couldnʼt speak a kind word to him.

¹⁸ Now they saw him in the distance, and before he reached them they plotted against him to kill him. ¹⁹ And they said to one another, "Look, this dreamer is coming. ²⁰ Come now, and letʼs kill him and throw him into one of the cisterns, and we will say that a vicious animal has devoured him. Then we will see what will become of his dreams."

⁵ Now do not be upset or angry with yourselves that you sold me here, for God sent me before you to preserve life. ⁶ For the famine has been in the land these two years, and there will be five more years in which there will be neither plowing nor harvest. ⁷ God sent me ahead of you to preserve for you a remnant on the earth, and to save your lives by a great deliverance. ⁸ So now, it wasnʼt you who sent me here, but God, and he has made me a father to Pharaoh, lord of all his house, and ruler over all the land of Egypt.

¹³ The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, the God of our fathers, has glorified his Servant Jesus, whom you delivered up, and denied in the presence of Pilate, when he had determined to release him. ¹⁴ But you denied the Holy and Righteous One, and asked for a man who was a murderer to be granted to you, ¹⁵ and killed the Originator of life, whom God raised from the dead, to which we are witnesses.

³⁹ The descendants of Makir the son of Manasseh went to Gilead, and took it, and dispossessed the Amorites who were in it.

⁷ Then God appeared to Abram and said to him, "I will give this land to your offspring." He built an altar there to God, who appeared to him.

¹⁵ for all the land which you see I will give to you and to your offspring forever.

¹⁸ On that day God made a covenant with Abram, saying, "To your descendants I have given this land, from the river of Egypt to the great river, the river Perath:

⁸ I will give to you, and to your descendants after you, the land of your sojournings, all the land of Canaan, for an everlasting possession, and I will be their God."

¹ Now God visited Sarah as he had said, and did to Sarah as he had spoken.

³ Sojourn in this land, and I will be with you, and will bless you. For to you, and to your descendants, I will give all these lands, and I will establish the oath which I swore to Abraham your father.

¹² The land which I gave to Abraham and Isaac, I will give to you, and I will give the land to your descendants after you."

¹ The LORD spoke to Moses, "Depart, go up from here, you and the people that you have brought up out of the land of Egypt, to the land of which I swore to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, saying, 'I will give it to your descendants.'

¹¹ 'Surely none of the men who came up out of Egypt, from twenty years old and upward, shall see the land which I swore to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob; because they have not wholly followed me:

⁸ Look, I have set the land before you: go in and possess the land which I swore to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give to them and to their descendants after them."

¹⁰ It shall be, when the LORD your God shall bring you into the land which he swore to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give you, great and goodly cities, which you did not build,

²⁸ And Jacob lived in the land of Egypt seventeen years. So the days of Jacob, the years of his life, were one hundred forty-seven years.

² Joseph commanded his servants the physicians to embalm his father. So the physicians embalmed Israel. ³ Forty days were required for it, for that is how many the days it takes for embalming. The Egyptians mourned for him for seventy days.

²² So Joseph lived in Egypt, he, and his fatherʼs household. And Joseph lived one hundred ten years.
