“ The patriarchs became jealous of Joseph and sold him into Egypt. Yet God was with him,

Meanwhile, the Midianites sold him in Egypt to Potiphar, Pharaoh’s officer, the captain of the bodyguard.

As for you, you meant evil against me, but God meant it for good in order to bring about this present result, to keep many people alive.

Come, and let’s sell him to the Ishmaelites and not lay our hands on him, for he is our brother, our own flesh.” And his brothers listened to him.Then some Midianite traders passed by, so they pulled him out and lifted Joseph out of the pit, and sold him to the Ishmaelites for twenty shekels of silver. So they brought Joseph into Egypt.

Now Joseph had been taken down to Egypt; and Potiphar, an Egyptian officer of Pharaoh, the captain of the bodyguard, bought him from the Ishmaelites, who had taken him down there.

Then Joseph said to his brothers,“ Please come closer to me.” And they came closer. And he said,“ I am your brother Joseph, whom you sold to Egypt.Now do not be grieved or angry with yourselves because you sold me here, for God sent me ahead of you to save lives.

So God sent me ahead of you to ensure for you a remnant on the earth, and to keep you alive by a great deliverance.Now, therefore, it was not you who sent me here, but God; and He has made me a father to Pharaoh and lord of all his household, and ruler over all the land of Egypt.
