Genesis 45:5-8 and now, be not grieved, nor let it be displeasing in your eyes that ye sold me hither, for to preserve life hath God sent me before you.

YLT⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁵ and now, be not grieved, nor let it be displeasing in your eyes that ye sold me hither, for to preserve life hath God sent me before you. ⁶ `Because these two years the famine is in the heart of the land, and yet are five years, in which there is neither ploughing nor harvest; ⁷ and God sendeth me before you, to place of you a remnant in the land, and to give life to you by a great escape; ⁸ and now, ye—ye have not sent me hither, but God, and He doth set me for a father to Pharaoh, and for lord to all his house, and ruler over all the land of Egypt.
