1 Joseph couldn’t control his emotions any longer while all his attendants were there, so he shouted out, "Everybody leave me!" So there was nobody else there when Joseph revealed who he was to his brothers. 2 But he cried so loudly that the Egyptians could hear him, and they told Pharaoh’s household about it.
3 "I’m Joseph!" he announced to his brothers. "Is my father still alive?" They couldn’t answer him as they were so surprised to see him face to face.
