10. You can live in the region of Goshen, where you can be near me with all your children and grandchildren, your flocks and herds, and everything you own.
11. I will take care of you there, for there are still five years of famine ahead of us. Otherwise you, your household, and all your animals will starve.’”
12. Then Joseph added, “Look! You can see for yourselves, and so can my brother Benjamin, that I really am Joseph!
13. Go tell my father of my honored position here in Egypt. Describe for him everything you have seen, and then bring my father here quickly.”
14. Weeping with joy, he embraced Benjamin, and Benjamin did the same.
15. Then Joseph kissed each of his brothers and wept over them, and after that they began talking freely with him.
16. The news soon reached Pharaoh’s palace: “Joseph’s brothers have arrived!” Pharaoh and his officials were all delighted to hear this.
17. Pharaoh said to Joseph, “Tell your brothers, ‘This is what you must do: Load your pack animals, and hurry back to the land of Canaan.
18. Then get your father and all of your families, and return here to me. I will give you the very best land in Egypt, and you will eat from the best that the land produces.’”
19. Then Pharaoh said to Joseph, “Tell your brothers, ‘Take wagons from the land of Egypt to carry your little children and your wives, and bring your father here.
20. Don’t worry about your personal belongings, for the best of all the land of Egypt is yours.’”
