Psalm 105:16-22
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
16 When he summoned famine against the land
and cut off every supply of bread,[a](A)
17 he had sent a man ahead of them,
Joseph, who had been sold as a slave.(B)
18 His feet were hurt with fetters;
his neck was put in a collar of iron;(C)
19 until what he had said came to pass,
the word of the Lord kept testing him.(D)
20 The king sent and released him;
the ruler of the peoples set him free.(E)
21 He made him lord of his house
and ruler of all his possessions,(F)
22 to instruct[b] his officials at his pleasure
and to teach his elders wisdom.
