Genesis 45:16-20
1599 Geneva Bible
16 ¶ And the [a]tidings came to Pharaoh’s house, so that they said, Joseph’s brethren are come: and it pleased Pharaoh well, and his servants.
17 Then Pharaoh said to Joseph, Say to thy brethren, This do ye, laid your beasts and depart, go to the land of Canaan,
18 And take your father, and your household, and come to me, and I will give you the [b]best of the land of Egypt, and ye shall eat of the [c]fat of the land.
19 And I command thee, Thus do ye, take you chariots out of the land of Egypt for your children, and for your wives, and bring your father and come.
20 Also [d]regard not your stuff: for the best of all the land of Egypt is yours.
