Genesis 45:2 (ERVEN) Easy to Read - English

1 Joseph could not control himself any longer. He cried in front of all the people who were there. Joseph said, "Tell everyone to leave here." So all the people left. Only the brothers were left with Joseph. Then he told them who he was.
2 Joseph continued to cry, and all the Egyptian people in Pharaoh's house heard it.
3 He said to his brothers, "I am your brother Joseph. Is my father doing well?" But the brothers did not answer him because they were confused and scared.
4 So Joseph said to his brothers again, "Come here to me. I beg you, come here." When the brothers went to him, he said to them, "I am your brother Joseph. I am the one you sold as a slave to Egypt.
5 Now don't be worried. Don't be angry with yourselves for what you did. It was God's plan for me to come here. I am here to save people's lives.
6 This terrible famine has continued for two years now, and there will be five more years without planting or harvest.
7 So God sent me here ahead of you so that I can save your people in this country.
8 It wasn't your fault that I was sent here. It was God's plan. God made me like a father to Pharaoh. I am the governor over all his house and over all of Egypt."
9 Joseph said, "Hurry up and go to my father. Tell him his son Joseph sent this message: 'God made me the governor of Egypt. So come here to me quickly. Don't wait.
10 You can live near me in the land of Goshen. You, your children, your grandchildren, and all of your animals are welcome here.
11 I will take care of you during the next five years of hunger. So you and your family will not lose everything you own.'
12 "Surely you can see that I really am Joseph. Even my brother Benjamin knows it is me, your brother, talking to you.
13 So tell my father about the honor I have received here in Egypt. Tell him about everything you have seen here. Now hurry, go bring my father back to me."
14 Then Joseph hugged his brother Benjamin, and they both began crying.
15 Then Joseph cried as he kissed all his brothers. After this, the brothers began talking with him.
16 Pharaoh learned that Joseph's brothers had come to him. This news spread throughout Pharaoh's house. Pharaoh and his servants were very excited!
17 So Pharaoh told Joseph, "Tell your brothers to take all the food they need and go back to the land of Canaan.
18 Tell them to bring your father and their families back here to me. I will give you the best land in Egypt to live on. And your family can eat the best food we have here.
19 Also give your brothers some of our best wagons. Tell them to go to Canaan and bring your father and all the women and children back in the wagons.
20 Don't worry about bringing all of their belongings. We can give them the best of Egypt."
21 So the sons of Israel did this. Joseph gave them good wagons just as Pharaoh had promised. And Joseph gave them enough food for their trip.
22 He gave each brother a suit of beautiful clothes. But to Benjamin he gave five suits of beautiful clothes and 300 pieces of silver.
23 Joseph also sent gifts to his father. He sent ten donkeys with bags full of many good things from Egypt. And he sent ten female donkeys loaded with grain, bread, and other food for his father on his trip back.
24 Then Joseph told his brothers to go. While they were leaving, he said to them, "Go straight home, and don't fight on the way."
25 So the brothers left Egypt and went to their father in the land of Canaan.
26 They told him, "Father, Joseph is still alive! And he is the governor over the whole country of Egypt." Their father did not know what to think. At first he didn't believe them.
27 But then they told him everything Joseph had said. Then their father saw the wagons that Joseph had sent to bring him back to Egypt, and he became excited and very happy.
28 Israel said, "Now I believe you. My son Joseph is still alive! I am going to see him before I die!"
1 Then Joseph H3130 could H3201 not H3808 W-NPAR refrain himself H662 before all H3605 them that stood H5324 by H5921 PREP-3MS him ; and he cried H7121 W-VQY3MS , Cause every H3605 CMS man H376 NMS to go out H3318 from PREP-3MS me . And there stood H5975 no H3808 W-NPAR man H376 NMS with H854 PREP-3MS him , while Joseph H3130 made himself known H3045 unto H413 PREP his brethren H251 .
2 And he wept aloud H5414 W-VQQ3MS : and the Egyptians H4714 and the house H1004 CMS of Pharaoh H6547 EMS heard H8085 .
3 And Joseph H3130 said H559 W-VQY3MS unto H413 PREP his brethren H251 NMP-3MS , I H589 PPRO-1MS am Joseph H3130 ; doth my father H1 CMS-1MS yet H5750 live H2416 AMS ? And his brethren H251 NMP-3MS could H3201 not H3808 W-NPAR answer H6030 him ; for H3588 CONJ they were troubled H926 at his presence H6440 .
4 And Joseph H3130 said H559 W-VQY3MS unto H413 PREP his brethren H251 NMP-3MS , Come near H5066 to H413 PREP me , I pray you H4994 IJEC . And they came near H5066 . And he said H559 W-VQY3MS , I H589 PPRO-1MS am Joseph H3130 your brother H251 , whom H834 RPRO ye sold H4376 into Egypt H4714 .
5 Now H6258 W-ADV therefore be not H408 NPAR grieved H6087 , nor H408 ADV angry H2734 with yourselves H5869 , that H3588 CONJ ye sold H4376 me hither H2008 ADV : for H3588 CONJ God H430 EDP did send H7971 me before H6440 you to preserve life H4241 .
6 For H3588 CONJ these H2088 DPRO two years H8141 NFD hath the famine H7458 D-NMS been in H7130 the land H776 D-GFS : and yet H5750 W-ADV there are five H2568 MFS years H8141 NFP , in the which H834 RPRO there shall neither H369 NPAR be earing H2758 nor harvest H7105 .
7 And God H430 EDP sent H7971 me before H6440 you to preserve H7760 L-VQFC you a posterity H7611 in the earth H776 B-NFS , and to save your lives H2421 by a great H1419 deliverance H6413 .
8 So now H6258 W-ADV it was not H3808 ADV you H859 PPRO-2MS that sent H7971 me hither H2008 ADV , but H3588 CONJ God H430 D-EDP : and he hath made H7760 me a father H1 to Pharaoh H6547 , and lord H113 of all H3605 L-CMS his house H1004 NMS-3MS , and a ruler H4910 throughout all H3605 B-CMS the land H776 GFS of Egypt H4714 .
9 Haste H4116 ye , and go up H5927 to H413 PREP my father H1 CMS-1MS , and say H559 unto H413 PREP-3MS him , Thus H3541 saith H559 VQQ3MS thy son H1121 Joseph H3130 , God H430 EDP hath made H7760 me lord H113 of all H3605 L-CMS Egypt H4714 : come down H3381 unto H413 PREP me , tarry H5975 not H408 ADV :
10 And thou shalt dwell H3427 in the land H776 B-GFS of Goshen H1657 , and thou shalt be H1961 W-VQQ2MS near H7138 AMS unto H413 PREP-1MS me , thou H859 PPRO-2MS , and thy children H1121 W-CMP-2MS , and thy children H1121 W-CMP \'s children H1121 CMP-2MS , and thy flocks H6629 , and thy herds H1241 , and all H3605 W-CMS that H834 RPRO thou hast :
11 And there H8033 ADV will I nourish H3557 thee ; for H3588 CONJ yet H5750 ADV there are five H2568 MFS years H8141 NFP of famine H7458 NMS ; lest H6435 CONJ thou H859 PPRO-2MS , and thy household H1004 , and all H3605 W-CMS that H834 RPRO thou hast , come to poverty H3423 .
12 And , behold H2009 IJEC , your eyes H5869 CMP-2MP see H7200 , and the eyes H5869 W-CMD of my brother H251 Benjamin H1144 , that H3588 CONJ it is my mouth H6310 CMS-1MS that speaketh H1696 unto H413 you .
13 And ye shall tell H5046 my father H1 of all H3605 NMS my glory H3519 CMS-1MS in Egypt H4714 , and of all H3605 NMS that H834 RPRO ye have seen H7200 ; and ye shall haste H4116 and bring down H3381 my father H1 CMS-1MS hither H2008 .
14 And he fell H5307 W-VQY3MS upon H5921 PREP his brother H251 CMS-3MS Benjamin H1144 \'s neck H6677 , and wept H1058 ; and Benjamin H1144 wept H1058 upon H5921 PREP his neck H6677 .
15 Moreover he kissed H5401 all H3605 L-CMS his brethren H251 NMP-3MS , and wept H1058 upon H5921 PREP-3MP them : and after H310 that H3651 ADV his brethren H251 NMP-3MS talked H1696 with H854 PREP-3MS him .
16 And the fame H6963 thereof was heard H8085 VQY1MP in Pharaoh H6547 EMS \'s house H1004 CMS , saying H559 L-VQFC , Joseph H3130 \'s brethren H251 are come H935 VQQ3MP : and it pleased Pharaoh well H3190 , and his servants H5650 .
17 And Pharaoh H6547 EMS said H559 W-VQY3MS unto H413 PREP Joseph H3130 , Say H559 W-VQY3MS unto H413 PREP thy brethren H251 CMP-2MS , This H2063 DPRO do H6213 ye ; lade H2943 your beasts H1165 , and go H1980 W-VQI2MP , get H935 you unto the land H776 NFS-3FS of Canaan H3667 LMS ;
18 And take H3947 your father H1 and your households H1004 , and come H935 W-VQI2MP unto H413 me : and I will give H5414 you the good H2898 of the land H776 GFS of Egypt H4714 EFS , and ye shall eat H398 the fat H2459 of the land H776 D-GFS .
19 Now thou H859 W-PPRO-2MS art commanded H6680 , this H2063 DPRO do H6213 ye ; take H3947 you wagons H5699 out of the land H776 M-NFS of Egypt H4714 EFS for your little ones H2945 , and for your wives H802 , and bring H5375 your father H1 , and come H935 .
20 Also regard H5869 not H408 NPAR your stuff H3627 ; for H3588 CONJ the good H2898 of all H3605 NMS the land H776 GFS of Egypt H4714 EFS is yours .
21 And the children H1121 of Israel H3478 did H6213 so H3651 ADV : and Joseph H3130 gave H5414 W-VQQ3MS them wagons H5699 , according to H5921 PREP the commandment H6310 of Pharaoh H6547 EMS , and gave H5414 W-VQQ3MS them provision H6720 for the way H1870 .
22 To all H3605 of them he gave H5414 VQQ3MS each man H376 changes H2487 of raiment H8071 ; but to Benjamin H1144 he gave H5414 VQQ3MS three H7969 BFS hundred H3967 BFP pieces of silver H3701 NMS , and five H2568 changes H2487 of raiment H8071 .
23 And to his father H1 he sent H7971 VQQ3MS after this H2063 manner ; ten H6235 asses H2543 laden H5375 with the good things H2898 of Egypt H4714 , and ten H6235 she asses H860 laden H5375 with corn H1250 and bread H3899 and meat H4202 for his father H1 by the way H1870 .
24 So he sent H7971 W-VPY3MS his brethren H251 NMP-3MS away , and they departed H1980 W-VQY3MP : and he said H559 W-VQY3MS unto H413 PREP-3MS them , See that ye fall not out H7264 by the way H1870 .
25 And they went up H5927 out of Egypt H4714 , and came H935 W-VQY3MP into the land H776 GFS of Canaan H3667 LMS unto H413 PREP Jacob H3290 their father H1 ,
26 And told H5046 him , saying H559 L-VQFC , Joseph H3130 is yet H5750 ADV alive H2416 AMS , and he H1931 PPRO-3MS is governor H4910 over all H3605 B-CMS the land H776 GFS of Egypt H4714 . And Jacob\'s heart H3820 CMS-3MS fainted H6313 , for H3588 CONJ he believed H539 them not H3808 NADV .
27 And they told H1696 W-VPY3MP him all H3605 NMS the words H1697 CMP of Joseph H3130 , which H834 RPRO he had said H1696 VPQ3MS unto H413 PREP-3MS them : and when he saw H7200 W-VIY3MS the wagons H5699 which H834 RPRO Joseph H3130 had sent H7971 VQQ3MS to carry H5375 him , the spirit H7307 NFS of Jacob H3290 their father H1 revived H2421 :
28 And Israel H3478 said H559 W-VQY3MS , It is enough H7227 AMS ; Joseph H3130 my son H1121 NMS-1MS is yet H5750 ADV alive H2416 AMS : I will go H1980 and see H7200 him before H2962 B-ADV I die H4191 .
