Then JosephH3130 cameH935 and toldH5046 Pharaoh,H6547 and said,H559 My fatherH1 and my brothers,H251 and their flocks,H6629 and their herds,H1241 and allH3605 that they have, are comeH935 out of the landH776 of Canaan;H3667 and, behold,H2009 they are in the landH776 of Goshen.H1657
2
And he tookH3947 someH7097 of his brothers,H251 even fiveH2568 men,H582 and presentedH3322 them to Pharaoh.H6547
3
And PharaohH6547 saidH559 to his brothers,H251 WhatH4100 is your occupation?H4639 And they saidH559 to Pharaoh,H6547 Your servantsH5650 are shepherds,H7462 H6629 bothH1571 we, and alsoH1571 our fathers.H1
4
They saidH559 morever to Pharaoh,H6547 For to sojournH1481 in the landH776 are we come;H935 for your servantsH5650 have noH369 pastureH4829 for their flocks;H6629 for the famineH7458 is soreH3515 in the landH776 of Canaan:H3667 nowH6258 therefore, we prayH4994 you, let your servantsH5650 dwellH3427 in the landH776 of Goshen.H1657
5
And PharaohH6547 spokeH559 to Joseph,H3130 saying,H559 Your fatherH1 and your brothersH251 are comeH935 to you:
6
The landH776 of EgyptH4714 is beforeH6440 you; in the bestH4315 of the landH776 make your fatherH1 and brothersH251 to dwell;H3427 in the landH776 of GoshenH1657 let them dwell:H3427 and ifH518 you knowH3045 any menH582 of activityH2428 among them, then makeH7760 them rulersH8269 overH5921 my cattle.H4735
7
And JosephH3130 broughtH935 in JacobH3290 his father,H1 and setH5975 him beforeH6440 Pharaoh:H6547 and JacobH3290 blessedH1288 Pharaoh.H6547
8
And PharaohH6547 saidH559 to Jacob,H3290 HowH4100 oldH3113 are you?
9
And JacobH3290 saidH559 to Pharaoh,H6547 The daysH3117 of the yearsH8141 of my pilgrimageH4033 are an hundredH3967 and thirtyH7970 years:H8141 fewH4592 and evilH7451 have the daysH3117 of the yearsH8141 of my lifeH2416 been,H1961 and have not attainedH5381 to the daysH3117 of the yearsH8141 of the lifeH2416 of my fathersH1 in the daysH3117 of their pilgrimage.H4033
10
And JacobH3290 blessedH1288 Pharaoh,H6547 and wentH3318 out from beforeH6440 Pharaoh.H6547
11
And JosephH3130 placedH3427 his fatherH1 and his brothers,H251 and gaveH5414 them a possessionH272 in the landH776 of Egypt,H4714 in the bestH4315 of the land,H776 in the landH776 of Rameses,H7486 as PharaohH6547 had commanded.H6680
12
And JosephH3130 nourishedH3557 his father,H1 and his brothers,H251 and allH3605 his father'sH1 household,H1004 with bread,H3899 accordingH6310 to their families.H2945
13
And there was noH369 breadH3899 in allH3605 the land;H776 for the famineH7458 was veryH3966 sore,H3515 so that the landH776 of EgyptH4714 and all the landH776 of CanaanH3667 faintedH3856 by reasonH6440 of the famine.H7458
14
And JosephH3130 gatheredH3950 up allH3605 the moneyH3701 that was foundH4672 in the landH776 of Egypt,H4714 and in the landH776 of Canaan,H3667 for the cornH7668 whichH834 they bought:H7666 and JosephH3130 broughtH935 the moneyH3701 into Pharaoh'sH6547 house.H1004
15
And when moneyH3701 failedH8552 in the landH776 of Egypt,H4714 and in the landH776 of Canaan,H3667 allH3605 the EgyptiansH4714 cameH935 to Joseph,H3130 and said,H559 GiveH3051 us bread:H3899 for whyH4100 should we dieH4191 in your presence?H5048 for the moneyH3701 fails.H656
16
And JosephH3130 said,H559 GiveH3051 your cattle;H4735 and I will giveH5414 you for your cattle,H4735 ifH518 moneyH3701 fail.H656
17
And they broughtH935 their cattleH4735 to Joseph:H3130 and JosephH3130 gaveH5414 them breadH3899 in exchange for horses,H5483 and for the flocks,H6629 and for the cattleH4735 of the herds,H1241 and for the asses:H2543 and he fedH5095 them with breadH3899 for allH3605 their cattleH4735 for that year.H8141
18
When that yearH8141 was ended,H8552 they cameH935 to him the secondH8145 year,H8141 and saidH559 to him, We will not hideH3582 it from my lord,H113 how that our moneyH3701 is spent;H8552 my lordH113 also hasH413 our herdsH4735 of cattle;H929 there is not ought leftH7604 in the sightH6440 of my lord,H113 but our bodies,H1472 and our lands:H127
19
WhyH4100 shall we dieH4191 before your eyes,H5869 bothH1571 we and our land?H127 buyH7069 us and our landH127 for bread,H3899 and we and our landH127 will be servantsH5650 to Pharaoh:H6547 and giveH5414 us seed,H2233 that we may live,H2421 and not die,H4191 that the landH127 be not desolate.H3456
20
And JosephH3130 boughtH7069 allH3605 the landH127 of EgyptH4714 for Pharaoh;H6547 for the EgyptiansH4714 soldH4376 every manH376 his field,H7704 becauseH3588 the famineH7458 prevailedH2388 overH5921 them: so the landH776 becameH1961 Pharaoh's.H6547
21
And as for the people,H5971 he removedH5674 them to citiesH5892 from one endH7097 of the bordersH1366 of EgyptH4714 even to the other endH7097 thereof.
22
OnlyH7535 the landH127 of the priestsH3548 boughtH7069 he not; for the priestsH3548 had a portionH2706 assigned them of Pharaoh,H6547 and did eatH398 their portionH2706 whichH834 PharaohH6547 gaveH5414 them: whyH5921 H3651 they soldH4376 not their lands.H127
23
Then JosephH3130 saidH559 to the people,H5971 Behold,H2009 I have boughtH7069 you this dayH3117 and your landH127 for Pharaoh:H6547 see,H1887 here is seedH2233 for you, and you shall sowH2232 the land.H127
24
And it shall comeH1961 to pass in the increase,H8393 that you shall giveH5414 the fifthH2549 part to Pharaoh,H6547 and fourH702 partsH3027 shall be your own, for seedH2233 of the field,H7704 and for your food,H400 and for them of your households,H1004 and for foodH398 for your littleH2945 ones.
25
And they said,H559 You have saved our lives:H2421 let us findH4672 graceH2580 in the sightH5869 of my lord,H113 and we will be Pharaoh'sH6547 servants.H5650
26
And JosephH3130 madeH7760 it a lawH2706 overH5921 the landH127 of EgyptH4714 to thisH2088 day,H3117 that PharaohH6547 should have the fifthH2569 part, exceptH7535 the landH127 of the priestsH3548 only,H905 which becameH1961 not Pharaoh's.H6547
27
And IsraelH3478 dwelledH3427 in the landH776 of Egypt,H4714 in the countryH776 of Goshen;H1657 and they had possessionsH270 therein, and grew,H6509 and multipliedH7235 exceedingly.H3966
28
And JacobH3290 livedH2421 in the landH776 of EgyptH4714 seventeenH7651 H6240 years:H8141 so the whole ageH3117 of JacobH3290 was an hundredH3967 fortyH705 and sevenH7651 years.H8141
29
And the timeH3117 drew nearH7126 that IsraelH3478 must die:H4191 and he calledH7121 his sonH1121 Joseph,H3130 and saidH559 to him, IfH518 nowH4994 I have foundH4672 graceH2580 in your sight,H5869 put,H7760 I prayH4994 you, your handH3027 underH8478 my thigh,H3409 and dealH6213 kindlyH2617 and trulyH571 with me; buryH6912 me not, I prayH4994 you, in Egypt:H4714
30
But I will lieH7901 with my fathers,H1 and you shall carryH5375 me out of Egypt,H4714 and buryH6912 me in their burial plot.H6913 And he said,H559 I will doH6213 as you have said.H1697
31
And he said,H559 SwearH7650 to me. And he sworeH7650 to him. And IsraelH3478 bowedH7812 himself on the bed'sH4296 head.H7218
