(Crickets chirping)

(Squawks)

It's taking so long.

(Chuckles) Look at yourself, Father.

You'd think this was your first child.

Tell me, were you this nervous when I was born?

Well, yes and no. It was different with your mother.

But with Rachel, we gave up hope.

We were told she could never have children.

- Father! It's a boy! - Father.

- Father, it's a boy! - It's a boy.

(Baby crying)

MY boy!

(Crying continues)

(Ian you believe it? Rachel had a baby.

I guess it is a miracle.

(Baby coos)

O God, who is the father of us all,

you have blessed me with a gift beyond all measure.

Within a barren wife,

amid the twilight skies of my life,

you've placed a treasure.

# A brightly shining star where there was none

# You have granted us a son

(Rachel) # Dreams do come true.

- # Look at you - (Father) #Joseph

(All) # Our baby brother (Father) # He is special

# He is one of us, we'll keep him from harm

# And we will teach him

# I will teach him all he needs to know

# He'll stand apart from other men

# We'll stand beside him and together

# We will show him what it means to be a family... #

Ah. Ooh.

# You are a miracle child

# You are the best

# You shine the brightest... #

_ (Laughs) “ Joseph_

Come on. Come to Papa.

# Your trails be blessed

# Your trials the lightest

# You were made for better things

# You will share the air of kings

# You were bom and fortune smüed

# For you are a miracle child

(Rachel) # The sun will rise

# Within your eyes

# The moon will light your smile

# And Heaven grace your gentle face

- # With power to beguile... # - Good night, Joseph.

# You will wade through the river of sorrows

# Warm and dry

(Father) # And angels will guide your tomorrows

# This I prophesy

(Both) # For you are a miracle child

# You are the best

# You shine the brightest

# Your days will be cloudless and mild

# Your trails be blessed

# Your trials the lightest

# You were made for better things

# You will share the air of kings

# You were bom and fortune smüed

# For you are a miracle child

# Dearest Mother

# Beloved Father

# A coat of colours bright as butterfly wings

# To remind me

# Things you've told me all my life

# I am special, I am smart

# I am somehow set apart

# Petty rules and limitations don't apply

#Forl

# Am a miracle child

# I can't be harmed

# I'm wrapped in rainbows

# Though fate can be heartless and vile

# My Life's been charmed

# And shall remain so

# I was made for something more

# Not to struggle but to soar

# To my fortuna reconcüed

# For I am a miracle child

# You won't see me bent over double

# ln darkness and rubble

# Where mountains of trouble are piled

# I was destined to fly

# Watch me light up the sky

# For I am a miracle child #

“ (Nngles) " (Sheep bleating)

e (whiSpers) Hey “ (GrowLs) '-

- No! Stop! - What's wrong?

- What's going on? - What did he say?

- Oh, it's Joseph. - It was wolves!

Coming out of the shadows. I was surrounded.

- They were all around... - That's it?

- You woke us...for a dream? - Ooh!

Quiet! You want to scare the sheep?

- The sheep. The ram. - (Brothers murmuring)

- The Wolves killed the ram. - (Bleats)

It was dead. I...I don't understand. It all seemed so real.

- Everything is fine, Joseph. - It's over. Don't worry.

Boys, since you're up, make yourselves useful.

Get to work before sunup.

(Brothers groan)

ThanKSU)

(Grumbling)

- Joseph, where are you going? - Um, I...

You have studies.

But, I wanna go with them.

- They have their work and you yours. - But why?

Because you do. Because you're a miracle child.

For you things are different.

I don't want to be different. I want to be like them.

Joseph, God has a plan and a purpose for you.

- You're not like the rest of us. - (Sighs)

I've worked this earth all my life, just as my father and grandfather did

and your brothers will after me.

That won't be your future.

Jacob, even God rested on the seventh day.

He'll find his future soon enough.

- Let him be with his brothers. - Please?

(SÍQhS) Go on.

Thanks.

Be safe!

(Sheep bleating)

(Joseph) Judah! Simeon!

- Hmph! Look who's here. - The miracle child.

What are you doing? Don't you have some Scrolls to read?

Here, let me do that.

Wait, wait! You have to be very carefuL

- You'll cut your hands on the fur(!) - Get away!

- (All laughing) - I...I just want to help.

Thanks to you, we'll have to work an extra hour today.

You're tired because you were out all night.

Why, you little sneak... What do you know?

Everything. The women and the drinking...

- There's a lot Father doesn't know. - You wouldn't?

He would, the brat.

- One word and I'll wring your neck. - Stop it!

We should be happy for his help.

Maybe he can do your work, Simeon. Somebody should.

(Laughter)

And there is something Joseph can do.

- What's he doing? - Shh!

While we round up the strays, can you watch the herd?

- O( course. - Good.

We'll be back soon. Let's go.

Maybe we should split up. You go over there.

- I'll go this way. - (Chuckles) Hey! What are you doing?

(Laugh5)

" (Bleats) “ (Laughs)

(Brothers laughing and chattering)

- Whoo-hoo! - (Shouting)

- Get him. - You're too heavy.

* (Lôughing) " (Sighs)

(Groans)

- (Bleats) - What?

Are you making fun of me too?

- (Bleating) _ (Laughs)

- (Bleats) - Hey! Hey, come back!

\ (Growun \ Huh? 9)

- (Growling) - (Gasps)

Get away! Get away!

(Bleating)

(Wolves barking)

- Gotcha! - (Wolves snarling)

(whimpers)

Back! Back!

- Get away! - (Growling)

(Sighs)

Joseph, are you hurt?

Father! (Panting)

Your brothers, where are they?

I asked you a question!

They're...they're, uh...

They...they went swimming.

- Swimming? - (Panting)

- What happened? - This is how you take charge?

I expect you to watch out for Joseph, but you abandoned my son!

- My son! - Aren't we your sons too?

- The ram! - (Bleats)

- (Jingles) - (Brother) It's Joseph's dream!

Wolves kill sheep. It happens all the time.

No! I understand.

God sent you a vision of the future.

Joseph didn't really see the future, did he?

Let's get back to work.

(Insects chirping)

(Grunts)

(Squawking)

Why do we wash before work?

We don't want the sheep smelling you!

(Laughing) Look who finally woke up.

- Look what the sun brought up. - Nice of you to join us.

Good morning, Joseph.

Mom, last night I had another dream.

- Oh, another dream! - Ooh!

- I wasn't talking to you. - Please, why don't you share it?

Who'd the wolf get this time?

You can laugh, but it was about you.

Oh, please, you must tell us our future, great Joseph!

- Leave me alone! - Come on, tell us.

We're dying to hear about it.

We were carrying sheaves of wheat.

I was among you,

but then all of a sudden I was above you and your wheat bowed to me...

- I wonder what that means. - Nothing, that's what.

Hey, you asked to hear the dream.

What happened next?

The sky was dark and all around me were stars

- They were bowing to me too. - Ooh! Let's all bow down to Joseph!

We can't ignore these dreams. After all, his last one came true.

Are you saying that Joseph belongs above all of us, even Judah?

I'm not saying that, but there could be a message here.

Judah's led the herd for years, brought in the wheat...

He comes first before any of us - especially Joseph.

Judah, it's not up to me.

God may be telling us something of our future.

- Then my work doesn't matter. - Watch your tongue.

Jacob, Judah, please!

- I've had enough of this. - Let's go.

(Sighs) Look at what your dreams have done.

Don't get mad at me. I didn't ask for them.

- Or this either, brother! - Half-brother!

Joseph! Boys! Apologise to each other!

Let me talk to Joseph.

(Jacob) He's just a boy. You're too harsh on him.

You're always defending him!

(Jacob) His dreams come from God.

Joseph, you need to be more understanding of your brothers.

Life is harder for them than it will be for you.

Why do you defend them? They're not even your sons.

They're no less my sons than you are.

We're family, all of us.

If we break apart, we have nothing left.

# You've seen the damage words can do

# When full of thoughtless pride

# Now heed the wiser voice in you

# That calls to be your guide

# The flowers reaching for the sun

# Are all uniquely blessed

# But though each is special

# Not a one is better

# Than the rest

# Bloom, bloom, may you know

# The wisdom only time breeds

# There's room, bloom and you'll grow

# To follow where your heart leads

# Bloom and may you bring

# Your colours to the vast bouquet

# There's room, bloom, learn one thing

# Your gifts are meant to give away #

Thanks, Mom.

Judah! Simeon!

Levi! Reuben!

Where are you?

- (Judah) Joseph couldn't lead sheep. - (Reuben) But he's our brother.

(Simeon) Half brother. Judah should take over.

- But... - Do you want Joseph in charge?

We agree that something has to be clone about Joseph?

- Absolutely. - Yes.

- Hey! The spy is back! - I wasn't spying!

- Did Father teu you to check on us? - No!

- I want to... - Report on us to Father?

- You're his favourite. - N-no.

You look at Scrolls all day while we sweat.

Why is that? Is it because we don't have pretty coats?

- I have mine. - (Grunts) That's my coat!

Step aside. I'm the new head of the family.

Bow before me, you sheaves of wheat!

Oh, yes, Master Joseph, ruler of the world.

Give it back, now!

If you want your coat, why don't you go get it?

- Levi's got it. - No, I don't. Judah does.

- Come on! - I've got it!

(Screams)

(Laughing)

- I've had enough of this game! - Joseph!

Who says this is a game?

What are you doing? Leave me alone! No! Stop it!

(Gasp5)

Oh! Ohh!

(Coughing)

What do we do now?

Are we just going to leave him there?

- We'll think of something. - Somebody!

- Just get out of here. - Maybe he can dream his way out.

Don't leave me here alone!

(Sighs)

(Wolf howling)

(Shivering)

Aah! Aah!

(Whoosh)

I knew you'd come back.

(Grunts)

You think this is funny? Father won't be laughing when...

- Who are you? - Get him.

Hey! Hey! What are you doing? Ow!

Let me go! You don't understand. I'm from the house of Jacob!

- Scrawny, isn't he? - It's hard to tell.

(Groans)

- Hmm. - No, no, no, don't take my...

“ (Groans)

- (Grunts) - Looks like he's never worked a day.

- That'll change. - (Laughing)

My brothers will come for me. Judah!

- Simeon! Levi! Please help me! - Joseph!

We're right here.

(SÍQhS) Judah.

I told you they'd come for me.

As agreed, 20 pieces of silver.

J-Judah... Why...?

No! Help me!

Levi, please. Issachar.

Simeon. Stop them.

Judah. Judah, help me, please.

Please!

Judah, please!

Judah, we can't turn back now. We've gone too far.

- Aah! - Hut, hut!

- (Brays) - (Chuckles)

I'm your brother!

I'm your brother!

Half-brother.

- (Slaver) Yah! - (Saddle jingling)

(Wind whistling)

(Wolf howling)

(Slavers talking)

(Shivers)

(Gasp5)

- Where could he have gone? - Don't worry.

I'm sure he's all right.

The boys will find him.

(Judah) Father.

This is all we found.

(GÕSPS) Joseph!

- No! Joseph! * Joseph!

(Gasping)

- Oh, Rachel. - (Sobbing)

- (Grunts) - Hey, wake up.

(Laughter)

Get in line.

(Trader) Slaves for sale! Buy this one!

(Buyer) Let's have a look. Let me see his teeth.

Hmm. Mm-hmm.

He's too skinny.

This is more like it.

The Captain of the guard needs a ;Lave for his househom.

I have one he might like.

Thirty pieces? Hmm.

He looks healthy enough. Lord Potiphar!

- He'll do. - Looks like we have some work to do.

# Look and be humbled learn what your place is

You're done. He's ready for work.

It's not for your face. It's for the floor.

(Grunting)

Ow!

(Laughter)

- 'Hey, Joseph, you missed a spot' - (Laughing)

(Levi) 'Real work's different'

- 'No more baby soft hands.' - 'Who bows now, little brother?'

(Brothers laughing)

(Grunting)

- You there. - (Laughter stops)

Have you cleaned this entire courtyard yourself?

- Yes. - (Woman) He's a hard worker.

Hmm.

We could put him to better use inside?

My wife thinks you should work for her. What do you say?

I cannot say.

A slave is not his own master.

Well said.

Find him some new clothes. Then get someone else to finish.

- (Yowling) - Here, kitty, kitty, kitty! Come on.

- (Yowling) - Who brought the cat?

- Here, kitty, kitty, kitty. - Stop!

- (Chuckles) - Come down!

Aunt Zuleika, I'm sorry. I'll get it down.

- (Miaows) - Please come down.

Come here. Look at this.

- Oh. - (Women chuckling)

- Hmm. She seems to like you. - (Miaows)

- (Chuckles) - Thank you.

I haven't seen you here before.

- Oh, I'm new. - Asenath.

Coming, Aunt Zuleika. Goodbye.

(Sighs)

(Horse whinnying)

(Woman) Joseph, come here.

I'm waiting.

I'm coming!

0h! Sorry, Asenath.

- Oh! (Giggles) - What?

You don't want my aunt seeing you like this.

Â.

- (Horse whinnies) - Slave.

- (Flies buzzing) - Oh, yes, of course.

- (Galloping hooves) - Hyah! Hyah!

(Zuleika) What a magnificent animal.

- (Potiphar laughing) - Slave, I'm in the sun.

(Laughing) whoa!

- Well? - You were right.

He's all that you promised.

I haven't seen a finer horse in all of Egypt.

I'm glad Your Excellency is pleased.

- There is still one small matter. - Oh, yes. As we agreed.

(Coins jingling)

Forgive me, but something is not quite right.

Hmm. I thought I brought the right amount.

You're a busy man. Anyone can make a mistake.

He's yours. Pharaoh himself would be jealous.

(Potiphar) Yes, he's a fine horse.

Hmm.

Master, I think you should see this.

Uh... Get away from that. Don't touch it!

Well, look at that.

Well, i-it's broken.

- Your Excellency, I had no idea. - Of course not.

You're a busy man. Anyone can make a mistake.

Yours will cost you your freedom.

Please, keep the stallion as a gift.

No. Take him away.

I have a dozen more horses! Take them all! Please, anything!

Potiphar, you should keep it.

You said it was the finest in all Egypt.

Own a horse taken from a thief? What would that say about me?

You and your honour!

- You've clone well. What's your name? - Joseph.

Joseph. You're an educated slave.

- Where did you learn? - My father taught me.

Ah. He taught you well.

- What else has your father taught? - I can read and write Egyptian.

(Man) # A boy looks up

- # And sees a golden gift of chance - What a mess.

Good luck.

# To prove his worth

# And make the best of what might seem

# A dire circumstance

# Onward and onward the slow and steady climb

- Master. - Let's have a look.

# Task upon task that can lift him

- # To the Summit over time - Well clone, Joseph.

# You've got to take whatever road's at your feet

# You've got to make whatever progress you can

# Although the map you hold is far from complete

# You've got to take whatever road's at your feet

(Laughing)

To a good year, and to your friend.

(Both laughing)

(Crickets chirping)

(Sighs)

(Judah) 'My neck is killing me.

- 'It's too early for this.' - (Brothers grunting and laughing)

(Water sloshing)

- (Jacob) 'Rachel.' - Joseph.

\ “um * Shh!

W-why are you here?

- Is something wrong? - No.

This land...it's not Egypt.

Is this your home?

- Canaan. - Hease, teu me more about Canaan.

(Sighs)

This is the place where I was born.

These are the sunflowers my mother planted.

This is my, uh...

, My.”

You miss them, don't you?

My brothers.

They betrayed me!

- Joseph, we are your family now. - Huh?

We care for you here.

We... I feel you are special.

What? No. W-why have you come here tonight?

- To be with you. - No. This is not right.

- Look at me. - I won't betray my master.

- I'm talking to you. - No!

- Wait! I order you to stay. - No!

Everything you are, you (me to me!

(Panting)

(Zuleika screams)

You stood apart from the other slaves.

I let you work in my home. I kept you from hard labour,

and you did well for me.

- Or so I thought. - Master...

No other slave was ever given this opportunity! I gave you my trust.

- What do you say? - I did nothing wrong.

Still you insult me with your denials!

- What am I to make of this? - (Sobbing)

It's not what it seems. I could never betray you, master.

Such insolence! Am I to believe a slave over my own wife?

I swear. I did nothing to betray you.

Silence! For what you have clone, you must be put to death.

- See to it. - No, Master, I beg you. Tell him!

Help me! Tell him that...(Groaning)

Help me! Please!

- Stop. He doesn't deserve to die. - Why?

I see.

Take him to prison.

Wait, master. No! Please! Believe me! I-I did nothing wrong!

This is a mistake! Uh!

I did nothing wrong.

Yeah, we know you're innocent.

(Squeaking)

I know it sounds crazy, but it was so real.

I was up all night with my own dreams.

Now you wanna take up my day with yours?

No. Just listen. I was back at Pharaoh's palace

'm a garden of grapes that had three em vines.

A tear fell from my eye, and the vines drank it in.

They became so thick with grapes...

that I squeezed them into a cup and served it to Pharaoh.

That is quite a dream.

- I know what your dream means. - You do? H-how could you?

I just do. It's some kind of gift.

The three vines signify three days.

Then Pharaoh will bring you back to the palace a free man.

- (Sighs) If only it were true. - It is true.

And when you're free, tell Pharaoh about my gift. Please.

Some gift. To make up fairy tales and give hope to the foolish.

- Maybe he's not making it up. - All right, then.

Here's one I've had every night for a week.

I'm taking three baskets of bread to Pharaoh when the baskets fall.

I go to pick up the bread,

when Suddenly a swarm of birds attack me.

They keep pecking at me in the face and the eyes.

What does it mean?

- I don't know. - Yes, you do. Tell me.

Teu me!

(Sighs) The three baskets also signify three days.

In three days, Pharaoh will behead you,

and birds will feed on your flesh.

What? You're lying. You're lying!

- Stop ¡t! “ Uhh! No!

Don't pay any attention to him. We're not going anywhere.

(Squeaking)

(Door open5)

Take him.

Get up.

You knew. You knew! That's not a gift!

- That's a curse! - Pharaoh has summoned you.

- Why? What did I do? - Let's go.

It's gonna be all right. You'll see.

- Tell Pharaoh about me. - I will.

Don't forget me!

Don't forget me!

Guard! Tell them I'm still here!

Answer me!

(Sighs)

No one cares.

(Rain falling)

Asenath!

(Guard) Halt! Who's there?

No!

- (Thunder) - (Squeaking)

(Roar5)

(Spitting and panting)

God, why are you doing this to me?

Do you hear me?

Any kindness, you take away.

You gave me the dreams. You brought me the gift!

Some gift! My dreams are lies. What have l clone to deserve this?

(Thunder)

# I thought I did what's right

# I thought I had the answers

(Sighs)

Potiphar?

Pharaoh's butler said you interpret dreams.

That is true. And?

Pharaoh is tortured by a dream. None of his wise men can explain it.

I'm to bring you to the palace.

Potiphar?

It's good to see you again.

How could I have allowed this to happen?

- My wife... - I understand.

Let's go.

For the sake of Egypt, relieve my suffering.

(Groans)

- Is this the one you spoke of? - Yes, Excellency.

I'm told you merely need to hear a dream and you can explain it.

Not me, Your Excellency. The explanation comes from God.

None of my wise men or magicians, none of my gods could help me.

What makes you think your god is any different?

Teu me your dream, Pharach.

Every night it's the same.

I am standing by the Nile.

Seven healthy cows graze peacefully on the banks.

(Thunderclap)

But then seven horrible, sickly cows come from the same river,

the most wretched I have ever seen in Egypt.

Suddenly they begin to devour the healthy cattle,

and yet the cows remain as sickly as before.

And then I wake up.

- Is there more? - Yes. Another dream always follows.

Seven ears of grain, full and golden, grow from a single stalk.

(Rumbling)

Suddenly, seven ears, hardened and scorched,

spring up on the same stalk...

and swallow the seven good ears.

All that remains are shrivelled grains unfit to eat...

and nothing else.

We LI.?

Pharaoh's dreams are one.

The healthy cows and ears of grain are seven years of abundance.

The sickly cows and the withered grain...

mean seven years of famine vim fouow...

and destroy the land.

Egypt may not survive.

(Ian this be stopped? What can be done?

You must find a man you can trust.

During the years of plenty,

have him couect one-üíth of the grain from every “em

and store it under guard.

Then, during the famine, give it back to the people.

Potiphar, you trust this man?

With my life, Excellency.

(Crowd cheering)

(Crowd silences)

Through this man, I have seen the future of Egypt.

And through his deeds, we shall prosper.

(Crowd cheers)

I am giving him power over all Egypt.

Only Pharaoh will be greater.

You shall call him Tzafenat Paneah.

The God speaks and He lives.

(Crowd cheering) Tzafenat Paneah! Tzafenat Paneah!

" (Miaows) * Hey.

Kia, come back here. Hmm.

(Joseph clears throat)

(Gasp5)

Tzafenat Paneah.

Next. How many in your family?

- Five. - Five.

Thank you, my lord.

(Potiphar) Next, please.

- A long life for you, Excellency. - And for you.

Ah, here's a responsible young man.

- How many 'm your famüy? - Four, my ma.

Very good.

- Hi there. What's your name? - Menna.

And this is my sister Nyla. I'm looking after her.

- Are you here for some grain too? - (Gasps)

(Laugh5)

- Thank you! - Bye!

(Cries out)

- Here you go. - (Potiphar) Who's next?

We are, my lord.

- You are not Egyptian. - No, sir.

My brothers and I have travelled far, from Canaan.

- Joseph, what's wrong? - Nothing.

Look at you. You're shaking.

I-it must be the sun. I'll be fine.

(Judah) Our families are hungry.

You haven't contributed to our supply.

We don't ask for charity. We'll pay you with silver.

(Potiphar) How many are there?

12. 10 here and at home we have our father and youngest brother.

- (Gasps) - (Potiphar) Give them...

(Joseph) Nothing!

10 foreigners asking for grain, no ties to Egypt.

Are you thieves, hoping to see where we store our grain?

I don't know what you are, but I don't believe your story.

Your Excellency, everything we say is true.

Prove it! Produce this youngest brother.

- But what would that prove? - That you're not lying.

If it's the truth, I'll let you buy grain.

Till then, arrest this one!

- (Gasps) - Until you produce this brother.

- Take him. - (Grunting)

- (All shouting) - Stop!

' Judah. help me! - (Guard) No!

- (Simeon) No! No! No! - (Guard) Let's go.

(Door slams)

Joseph, what are you doing?

They're only feeding their families.

They're thieves, here to steal our grain.

They needed food and they would pay.

How can you say they're thieves? They've clone nothing to you.

(Scoffs)

Nothing?

(Sighs)

- They're my brothers. - What?

They sold me. They sold me into slavery.

They took me away from my home.

I never got to say goodbye to my mother.

I never got to see my father grow old.

Joseph, I...I didn't know.

You're here now. You have a home, a wife who loves you,

everything you could want.

No. Not everything.

I thought you learned something in that cell.

Remember when I would bring food to you?

Yes. It kept me going.

(Simeon) Hey! You won't keep me here.

My brothers will come for me.

(Echoing) My brothers will come...

J°Seph.

# How long must there be anger here

# Before we can rejoice

# Embracing love instead of fear

# Is but a simple choice

# It's hard for me to see you fall

# So bitter and so blind

# When the truest nature of us all

# Invites us to be kind

# Bloom, bloom, may you know

# The wisdom only time breeds

# There's room, bloom and you'll grow

# To follow where your heart leads

# Bloom and may you live

# The way your life was meant to be

# There's room, bloom and forgive... #

Tzafenat Paneah...

The family of Canaanites... They've returned.

Thank you.

Maybe they've suffered these last 20 years as well.

- Maybe they've changed. - No.

I don't think so.

(Door doses)

(Murmuring)

Don't speak unless you're spoken to.

Don't worry. It'll be all right.

Welcome.

- You've clone what I've asked? - Our brother, Benjamin.

You kept your word. Bring out the other brother.

So, Benjamin, tell me of your mother and father.

My mother is no longer alive.

0h. I-I'm sorry.

And your father?

- He's worried I'm here. - Why is that?

- I'm a long way from home. - Oh? Doesn't he trust your brothers?

He likes me to stay close by.

Really? Why is that?

A long time ago, h-he lost his youngest son.

Well, I'm sorry to hear that. How did that happen?

- He was killed. - Killed? How?

By wolves.

- Wolves? - Yes.

It broke my father's heart.

Well, it must have been very hard on your brothers too.

- They never speak of it. - Don't they?

- Benjamin! - (Brothers) Simeon!

- I was beginning to worry. - (All murmuring)

You must be hungry after your journey. Come.

You'll be my guests.

(Traditional music)

- A toast... - (Music stops)

to brothers.

(All) To brothers!

(Music resumes)

(Brothers arguing and protesting)

Stop this. You have no right. We've clone nothing wrong.

What's going on? Why have they been arrested?

- Joseph, what are you doing? - You'll see.

Get back in place. Get back in...

I give you food. I take you into my home.

And this is how you repay me, by Stealing?

We wouldn't steal from you!

- And now you insult me by lying. - What?

One of you has stolen from me.

Benjamin.

- (Murmuring) No... - The favoured one.

- I didn't! - Arrest him.

For this you will be punished.

- Someone put it there! - Stop! Take me instead.

- No, take me. - Take me!

- (All) Take me! - Take any of us, your grace,

but, please, let the boy go.

You would sacrifice yourselves for a spoiled half-brother?

Yes.

Why should you care if I take him, beat him, make him a slave?

Because I will not make my father suffer...again.

Again? What do you mean, "again"?

Our brother was not killed by wolves.

We were bünded by jeabusy and som him 'mto sbwery.

For 20 years we have lived with that guilt.

We can't go back without the boy.

My father could not bear it a second time.

And neither could we.

If anyone is to be punished, it should be us.

(Sighs)

I will not harm any of you or our father.

I am your brother, Joseph.

- Joseph? - I can't believe you're here.

How can it be?

Joseph?

I have so much to tell you, so many questions to ask.

Oh, Joseph, can you ever forgive us?

I already have.

(Ian you forgive me for thinking I was some miracle from God?

But you are a miracle.

God sent you to save our family and all of Egypt.

- And you did. - Asenath?

Please. I'd like you to meet my brothers.

(All) Welcome. Pleasure to meet you.

You will join me here,

all of you, with your families.

Look!

- I see him! There he is! - It's him! There he is!

- Joseph! - Father.

Father! Father!

- Father! - Joseph.

MY bOY. My boy.

Your mother prayed this day would come,

that we'd all be together again as a family.

- It's a miracle. - Yes, Father. It is a miracle.
