19And Joseph said, Have no fear: am I in the place of God?
20As for you, it was in your mind to do me evil, but God has given a happy outcome, the salvation of numbers of people, as you see today.
21So now, have no fear: for I will take care of you and your little ones. So he gave them comfort with kind words.
22Now Joseph and all his father's family went on living in Egypt: and the years of Joseph's life were a hundred and ten.
23And Joseph saw Ephraim's children of the third generation: and the children of Machir, the son of Manasseh, came to birth on Joseph's knees.
24Then Joseph said to his brothers, The time of my death has come; but God will keep you in mind and take you out of this land into the land which he gave by his oath to Abraham and Isaac and Jacob.
25Then Joseph made the children of Israel take an oath, saying, God will certainly give effect to his word, and you are to take my bones away from here.
