The Scriptures 1998

Genesis 45:23-28 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

23. And he sent to his father this: ten donkeys loaded with the best of Mitsrayim, and ten female donkeys loaded with grain, and bread, and food for his father for the journey.

24. So he sent his brothers away, and they left. And he said to them, “Do not quarrel along the way.”

25. And they went up out of Mitsrayim, and came to the land of Kena‛an to Ya‛aqoḇ their father.

26. And they told him, saying, “Yosĕph is still alive, and he is governor over all the land of Mitsrayim.” And Ya‛aqoḇ’s heart ceased, for he did not believe them.

27. But when they spoke to him all the words which Yosĕph had spoken to them, and when he saw the wagons which Yosĕph had sent to transport him, the spirit of Ya‛aqoḇ their father revived.

28. And Yisra’ĕl said, “Enough! My son Yosĕph is still alive. Let me go and see him before I die.”
