7 God sent me ahead of you to establish you as a remnant within the land and to keep you alive by a great deliverance.
8 Therefore it was not you who sent me here, but God. He has made me a father to Pharaoh, lord of his entire household, and ruler over all the land of Egypt.
9 “Return quickly to my father and say to him, ‘This is what your son Joseph says: “God has made me lord of all Egypt. Come down to me without delay.
10 You can settle in the land of Goshen and be near me — you, your children, and grandchildren, your sheep, cattle, and all you have.
11 There I will sustain you, for there will be five more years of famine. Otherwise, you, your household, and everything you have will become destitute.” ’
12 Look! Your eyes and my brother Benjamin’s eyes can see that it is I , Joseph, who am speaking to you.
13 Tell my father about all my glory in Egypt and about all you have seen. And bring my father here quickly.”
