Genesis 45:6-8

Expanded Bible

⁶ ·No food has grown on the land [^LThe famine has been in the land] for two years now, and there will be five more years without ·planting [^Lplowing] or harvest. ⁷ So God sent me here ahead of you to ·make sure you have some descendants left [^Lpreserve a remnant for you] on earth and to keep you alive in ·an amazing way [^La great deliverance]. ⁸ So it was not you who sent me here, but God [50:19–20]. God has made me ·the highest officer of the king of Egypt [^Lfather to Pharaoh]. I am ·in charge [master; lord] of his palace, and I am the ·master [ruler] of all the land of Egypt.
