Vinsæl biblíuvers úr Genesis 50

Deildu

You planned evil against me; God planned it for good to bring about the present result — the survival of many people.

But Joseph said to them, “Don’t be afraid. Am I in the place of God?

Therefore don’t be afraid. I will take care of you and your children.”  And he comforted them and spoke kindly to them.

‘Say this to Joseph: Please forgive your brothers’ transgression and their sin — the suffering they caused you.’ Therefore, please forgive the transgression of the servants of the God of your father.” Joseph wept  when their message came to him.

Joseph said to his brothers, “I am about to die,  but God will certainly come to your aid and bring you up from this land to the land he swore to give to Abraham,  Isaac,  and Jacob.”

So Joseph made the sons of Israel take an oath: “When God comes to your aid, you are to carry my bones up from here.”

Joseph died at the age of 110. They embalmed him and placed him in a coffin in Egypt.
