9 Hâtez-vous de remonter auprès de mon père, et vous lui direz: Ainsi a parlé ton fils Joseph: Dieu m’a établi seigneur de toute l’Égypte; descends vers moi, ne tarde pas!
10 Tu habiteras dans le pays de Gosen, et tu seras près de moi, toi, tes fils, et les fils de tes fils, tes brebis et tes bœufs, et tout ce qui est à toi.
11 Là, je te nourrirai, car il y aura encore cinq années de famine; et ainsi tu ne périras point, toi, ta maison, et tout ce qui est à toi.
12 Vous voyez de vos yeux, et mon frère Benjamin voit de ses yeux que c’est moi-même qui vous parle.
13 Racontez à mon père toute ma gloire en Égypte, et tout ce que vous avez vu; et vous ferez descendre ici mon père au plus tôt.
