SCRIPTURE

"And Pharaoh spake unto Joseph, saying, Thy father and thy brethren are come unto thee:" — Genesis 47:5 (ASV)

And Pharaoh spoke to Joseph
Who was present at the conversation that passed between him and his brethren:

saying, your father and your brethren are come to you ;
which is observed, not for Joseph's information, but to lead on to what he had to say further.
