1. Mosebok 45,16

JosephPharaoh

14 Så omfavnet han sin bror Benjamin og gråt, og Benjamin gråt på hans skulder.

15 Han kysset alle brødrene sine og gråt over dem. Etterpå snakket brødrene hans med ham.

Da nyheten nådde faraos hus om at Josefs brødre var kommet, gledet det farao og hans tjenere.

17 Farao instruerte Josef: «Si til brødrene dine: ‘Dette skal dere gjøre: Last dyrene deres og dra tilbake til Kanaans land,

18 og bring deres far og deres husstander tilbake til meg. Jeg vil gi dere det beste av landet Egypt, og dere skal nyte landets fedme.’
