Genesis 45:24-28
New American Standard Bible
24 So he sent his brothers away, and [a]as they departed, he said to them, “Do not [b]quarrel on the journey.” 25 Then they went up from Egypt, and came to the land of Canaan, to their father Jacob. 26 And they told him, saying, “Joseph is still alive, and indeed he is ruler over all the land of Egypt.” But [c]he was stunned, for (A)he did not believe them. 27 When they told him all the words of Joseph that he had spoken to them, and when he saw the (B)wagons that Joseph had sent to carry him, then the spirit of their father Jacob revived. 28 Then Israel said, “It is enough; my son Joseph is still alive. I will go and see him before I die.”
