New Living Translation

Genesis 45:22-28 New Living Translation (NLT)

22. And he gave each of them new clothes—but to Benjamin he gave five changes of clothes and 300 pieces of silver.

23. He also sent his father ten male donkeys loaded with the finest products of Egypt, and ten female donkeys loaded with grain and bread and other supplies he would need on his journey.

24. So Joseph sent his brothers off, and as they left, he called after them, “Don’t quarrel about all this along the way!”

25. And they left Egypt and returned to their father, Jacob, in the land of Canaan.

26. “Joseph is still alive!” they told him. “And he is governor of all the land of Egypt!” Jacob was stunned at the news—he couldn’t believe it.

27. But when they repeated to Jacob everything Joseph had told them, and when he saw the wagons Joseph had sent to carry him, their father’s spirits revived.

28. Then Jacob exclaimed, “It must be true! My son Joseph is alive! I must go and see him before I die.”
