"Now you are ordered, 'Do this: ^(F1)take ^(C1)wagons from the land of Egypt for your little ones and for your wives, and bring your father and come.

'And do not ^(F1)concern yourselves with your property, for the ^(F2)best of all the land of Egypt is yours.'"

Then the sons of Israel did so; and Joseph gave them ^(C1)wagons according to the ^(F1)command of Pharaoh, and gave them provisions for the journey.

To ^(F1)each of them he gave ^(C1)changes of garments, but to Benjamin he gave three hundred pieces of silver and ^(C2)five changes of garments.

And to his father he sent ^(F1)the following: ten male donkeys loaded with the ^(F2)best things of Egypt, ten female donkeys loaded with grain, bread, and sustenance for his father ^(F3)on the journey.

So he sent his brothers away, and ^(F1)as they departed, he said to them, "Do not ^(F2)quarrel on the journey."

Then they went up from Egypt, and came to the land of Canaan, to their father Jacob.

And they told him, saying, "Joseph is still alive, and indeed he is ruler over all the land of Egypt." But ^(F1)he was stunned, for ^(C1)he did not believe them.

When they told him all the words of Joseph that he had spoken to them, and when he saw the ^(C1)wagons that Joseph had sent to carry him, then the spirit of their father Jacob revived.
