Be angry but do not sin; do not let the sun go down on your anger,
Put on then, as God's chosen ones, holy and beloved, compassion, kindness, lowliness, meekness, and patience,
And he lifted up his eyes, and saw his brother Benjamin, his mother's son, and said, "Is this your youngest brother, of whom you spoke to me? God be gracious to you, my son!" Then Joseph made haste, for his heart yearned for his brother, and he sought a place to weep. And he entered his chamber and wept there.
