Genesis 45:9

7 And God ^asent me before you to preserve a¹ posterity for you in the earth, and to save your lives by a great deliverance.

8 So now it was not you who sent me here, but ^aGod; and He has made me ^ba father to Pharaoh, and lord of all his house, and a ^cruler throughout all the land of Egypt.

9 “Hurry and go up to my father, and say to him, ‘Thus says your son Joseph: “God has made me lord of all Egypt; come down to me, do not¹ tarry.

10 ^aYou shall dwell in the land of Goshen, and you shall be near to me, you and your children, your children’s children, your flocks and your herds, and all that you have.

11 There I will ^aprovide for you, lest you and your household, and all that you have, come to poverty; for there are still five years of famine.” ’

12 “And behold, your eyes and the eyes of my brother Benjamin see that it is ^amy mouth that speaks to you.

13 So you shall tell my father of all my glory in Egypt, and of all that you have seen; and you shall hurry and ^abring my father down here.”
