Genesis 45:1-3 ▼

1 Then Joseph could not restrain himself before all those who stood by him, and he called out, “Have everyone go out from me.” So there was no man with him when Joseph made himself known to his brothers.

2 Then he wept loudly. And the Egyptians heard it, and the household of Pharaoh heard it.

3 Then Joseph said to his brothers, “I am Joseph! Is my father still alive?” But his brothers could not answer him, for they were terrified at his presence.
