Mwanzo 50:17

‘Hili ndilo mtakalomwambia Yosefu: Ninakuomba uwasamehe ndugu zako dhambi na mabaya kwa vile walivyokutenda vibaya.’ Sasa tafadhali samehe dhambi za watumishi wa Mungu wa baba yako.” Ujumbe huu ulipomfikia, Yosefu akalia.

So shall ye say unto Joseph, Forgive, I pray thee now, the trespass of thy brethren, and their sin; for they did unto thee evil: and now, we pray thee, forgive the trespass of the servants of the God of thy father. And Joseph wept when they spake unto him.
