Genesis 45:1-5
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 45
1
Then Joseph could not control himself in front of everyone standing before him, and he shouted, 'Have everyone leave me!' So there was no one with him when Joseph made himself known to his brothers.
2
Then he wept so loudly that the Egyptians heard
it,
and the household of Pharaoh heard
about it.
3
And Joseph said to his brothers, 'I am Joseph! Is my father still alive?' But his brothers could not answer him, for they were terrified in his presence.
4
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.
5
Now do not be grieved or angry with yourselves because you sold me here, for God sent me ahead of you to save lives.
King James Version
Chapter 45
1
Then Joseph could not refrain himself before all them that stood by him; and he cried, Cause every man to go out from me. And there stood no man with him, while Joseph made himself known unto his brethren.
2
And he wept aloud: and the Egyptians and the house of Pharaoh heard.
3
And Joseph said unto his brethren, I am Joseph; doth my father yet live? And his brethren could not answer him; for they were troubled at his presence.
4
And Joseph said unto his brethren, Come near to me, I pray you. And they came near. And he said, I am Joseph your brother, whom ye sold into Egypt.
5
Now therefore be not grieved, nor angry with yourselves, that ye sold me hither: for God did send me before you to preserve life.

3
Joseph said to his brothers, "I am Joseph! Is my father still living?" But they could not answer him because they were terrified in his presence.

New Living Translation
Chapter 45
1
Joseph could stand it no longer. There were many people in the room, and he said to his attendants, 'Out, all of you!' So he was alone with his brothers when he told them who he was.
2
Then he broke down and wept. He wept so loudly the Egyptians could hear him, and word of it quickly carried to Pharaoh’s palace.
3
I am Joseph!' he said to his brothers. 'Is my father still alive?' But his brothers were speechless! They were stunned to realize that Joseph was standing there in front of them.
4
Please, come closer,' he said to them. So they came closer. And he said again, 'I am Joseph, your brother, whom you sold into slavery in Egypt.
5
But don’t be upset, and don’t be angry with yourselves for selling me to this place. It was God who sent me here ahead of you to preserve your lives.
