Genesis 50:17 DBY

¹⁵  And when Joseph's brethren saw that their father was dead, they said, If now Joseph should be hostile to us, and should indeed requite us all the evil that we did to him!

¹⁶  And they sent a messenger to Joseph, saying, Thy father commanded before he died, saying,

¹⁷  Thus shall ye speak to Joseph: Oh forgive, I pray thee, the transgression of thy brethren, and their sin! for they did evil to thee. And now, we pray thee, forgive the transgression of the servants of the God of thy father. And Joseph wept when they spoke to him.

¹⁸  And his brethren also went and fell down before his face, and said, Behold, we are thy bondmen.

¹⁹  And Joseph said to them, Fear not: am I then in the place of God?
