9. “Now hurry back to my father and tell him that this is what his son Joseph says: ‘God has made me ruler of all Egypt; come to me without delay.
10. You can live in the region of Goshen, where you can be near me — you, your children, your grandchildren, your sheep, your goats, your cattle, and everything else that you have.
11. If you are in Goshen, I can take care of you. There will still be five years of famine; and I do not want you, your family, and your livestock to starve.’ ”
12. Joseph continued, “Now all of you, and you too, Benjamin, can see that I am really Joseph.
13. Tell my father how powerful I am here in Egypt and tell him about everything that you have seen. Then hurry and bring him here.”
14. He threw his arms round his brother Benjamin and began to cry; Benjamin also cried as he hugged him.
15. Then, still weeping, he embraced each of his brothers and kissed them. After that, his brothers began to talk with him.
