*
And Joseph returned into Egypt ,
he ,
and his brethren ,
and all that went up with him to bury his father ,
after he had buried his father .
*
And when Joseph '
s brethren saw that their father was dead ,
they said ,
Joseph will peradventure hate us ,
and will certainly requite us all the evil which we did unto him .
*
And they sent a messenger unto Joseph ,
saying ,
Thy father did command before he died ,
saying ,
*
So shall ye say unto Joseph ,
Forgive ,
I pray thee now ,
the trespass of thy brethren ,
and their sin ;
for they did unto thee evil :
and now ,
we pray thee ,
forgive the trespass of the servants of the God of thy father .
And Joseph wept when they spake unto him .
*
And his brethren also went and fell down before his face ;
and they said ,
Behold ,
we be thy servants .
*
And Joseph said unto them ,
Fear not :
for am I in the place of God ?
*
But as for you ,
ye thought evil against me ;
but God meant it unto good ,
to bring to pass ,
as it is this day ,
to save much people alive .
