The following comes from The Pseudepigrapha, translated by Craig Evans (2008):
I was alone, and God comforted me. I was sick, and the Lord visit me. I was in prison , and my God showed favor (εχαριτωσε 3rd-person singular indicative active aorist) to me, in bonds, and he released me. (Testament of Joseph 1:6)
(The king) praised
the man in a long speech and then asked another how he could despise his
enemies? And he said: "If you show kindness (κεχαριτωσθαι infinitive
perfect middle) to all men and win their friendship, you need not fear no one.
To be popular with all people is the best of good gifts to receive from
God." (Letter of Aristeas 225)
