Scripture - Psalm 105:6, 16-22, 45b
6 you who are the offspring of Abraham, his servant,
and the children of Jacob, his chosen ones.
16 When God called for a famine in the land,
destroying every source of food,
17 he sent a man ahead of them,
who was sold as a slave: it was Joseph.
18 Joseph’s feet hurt in his shackles;
his neck was in an iron collar,
19 until what he predicted actually happened,
until what the Lord had said proved him true.[a]
20 The king sent for Joseph and set him free;
the ruler of many people released him.
21 The king made Joseph master of his house and ruler over everything he owned,
22 to make sure his princes acted according to his will,
and to teach wisdom to his advisors.
45 all so that they would keep his laws
and observe his instructions.
Praise the Lord!
