16 Moreover, he called for a dearth upon the land: and destroyed
all the provision of bread.
17 But he had sent a man before them: even Joseph, who was sold
to be a bond-servant;
18 Whose feet they hurt in the stocks: the iron entered into his
soul;
19 Until the time came that his cause was known: the word of the
Lord tried him.
20 The king sent, and delivered him: the prince of the people let
him go free.
21 He made him lord also of his house: and ruler of all his
substance;
22 That he might inform his princes after his will: and teach
his senators wisdom.
23 Israel also came into Egypt: and Jacob was a stranger in the
land of Ham.
24 And he increased his people exceedingly: and made them stronger
than their enemies;
25 Whose heart turned, so that they hated his people: and dealt
untruly with his servants.
