17. Then Pharaoh said to Joseph, “Say to your brothers: ‘Do this—load your donkeys and go back to the land of Canaan,

18. and take your father and your households and come to me, and I will give you the best of the land of Egypt, and you shall eat the fat of the land.’

19. And you Joseph, are commanded to say this: ‘Do this! Take wagons from the land of Egypt for your little ones and your wives, and bring your father and come!

20. Do not worry about your possessions, for the best of all the land of Egypt is yours.’ ”
