Genesis 45:5-8

New International Version

⁵ And now, do not be distressed^(A) and do not be angry with yourselves for selling me here,^(B) because it was to save lives that God sent me ahead of you.^{(C) 6} For two years now there has been famine^(D) in the land, and for the next five years there will be no plowing and reaping. ⁷ But God sent me ahead of you to preserve for you a remnant^(E) on earth and to save your lives by a great deliverance.^[a](F)

⁸ “So then, it was not you who sent me here, but God.^(G) He made me father^(H) to Pharaoh, lord of his entire household and ruler of all Egypt.^(I)
