Genesis 45:5-8
New King James Version
5 But now, do not therefore be grieved or angry with yourselves because you sold me here; (A)for God sent me before you to preserve life. 6 For these two years the (B)famine has been in the land, and there are still five years in which there will be neither plowing nor harvesting. 7 And God (C)sent me before you to preserve a [a]posterity for you in the earth, and to save your lives by a great deliverance. 8 So now it was not you who sent me here, but (D)God; and He has made me (E)a father to Pharaoh, and lord of all his house, and a (F)ruler throughout all the land of Egypt.
