New Testament

Genesis 45:22-28 Modern English Version (MEV)

22. To each of them he gave a change of clothes, but he gave to Benjamin three hundred shekels of silver and five changes of clothes.

23. To his father he sent the following: ten donkeys loaded with the best things of Egypt and ten female donkeys loaded with grain and bread and provisions for his father on the journey.

24. So he sent his brothers away, and they departed. He said to them, “Do not quarrel on the way.”

25. They went up out of Egypt and came to the land of Canaan to Jacob their father.

26. They told him, “Joseph is still alive, and he is governor over all the land of Egypt.” And Jacob’s heart stood still because he could not believe them.

27. They told him all the words of Joseph, which he had said to them, and when he saw the wagons that Joseph had sent to carry him, the spirit of their father Jacob revived.

28. Then Israel said, “Enough! Joseph my son is still alive. I will go and see him before I die.”
