He gifted them forgiveness


He had the power to hurt them
to bring about their death
these brothers who hurt him
who sold their own flesh
He gifted them forgiveness
mercy they did not deserve
he used his power, his position,
to give them life and healing
he gave them what they needed
in that foreign land
