01:050:014 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.
01:050:015 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.
01:050:016 And they sent a messenger unto Joseph, saying, Thy father did
command before he died, saying,
01:050:017 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.
01:050:018 And his brethren also went and fell down before his face; and
they said, Behold, we be thy servants.
01:050:019 And Joseph said unto them, Fear not: for am I in the place of
God?
01:050:020 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.
01:050:021 Now therefore fear ye not: I will nourish you, and your
little ones. And he comforted them, and spake kindly unto them.
01:050:022 And Joseph dwelt in Egypt, he, and his father's house: and
Joseph lived an hundred and ten years.
01:050:023 And Joseph saw Ephraim's children of the third generation:
the children also of Machir the son of Manasseh were brought up upon
Joseph's knees.
01:050:024 And Joseph said unto his brethren, I die: and God will surely
visit you, and bring you out of this land unto the land which he sware
to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.
01:050:025 And Joseph took an oath of the children of Israel, saying,
God will surely visit you, and ye shall carry up my bones from hence.
01:050:026 So Joseph died, being an hundred and ten years old: and they
embalmed him, and he was put in a coffin in Egypt.
BOOK 02 Exodus
0$:001:001 Now these are the names of the children of
Israel, which came into Egypt; every man and his household came with
Jacob.
02:001:002 Reuben, Simeon, Levi, and Judah,
02:001:003 Issachar, Zebulun, and Benjamin,
02:001:004 Dan, and Naphtali, Gad, and Asher.
02:001:005 And all the souls that came out of the loins of Jacob were
seventy souls: for Joseph was in Egypt already.
02:001:006 And Joseph died, and all his brethren, and all that
generation.
02:001:007 And the children of Israel were fruitful, and increased
abundantly, and multiplied, and waxed exceeding mighty; and the land was
filled with them.
02:001:008 Now there arose up a new king over Egypt, which knew not
Joseph.
02:001:009 And he said unto his people, Behold, the people of the
children of Israel are more and mightier than we:
02:001:010 Come on, let us deal wisely with them; lest they multiply,
and it come to pass, that, when there falleth out any war, they join
also unto our enemies, and fight against us, and so get them up out of
the land.
