raoh, For to sojourn in the land are
we come; for thy servants have no
pasture for their flocks; for the
famine is sore in the land Of
Canaan now therefore. We pray
thee. let thy servants dwell in the
land of Goshen.
And Pharaoh spake unto Jo-
seph, saying. Thy father and thy
brethren are come unto thee:
The land of Egypt is before
thee; in the best of the land make
thy father and brethren to dwell;
in the land of Goshen let them
dwell: and il thou knowest any
men OF activity among them. then
make them rulers over my cattle.
And Joseph brought in Jacob
his father. and set him before Pha-
raoh: and Jacob blessed Pharaoh.
And Pharaoh said unto Jacob.
How old art thou?
And Jacob said unto Pharaoh.
The days of the years of my pill
grimage are a hundred and thirty
years: few and evil have the day,
OF the years of my life been, and
have not attained unto the days OF
the years of the life OF my fathers
in the days OF their pilgrimage.
10 And Jacob blessed Pharaoh.
and went out from before Pharaoh.
IL 4 And Joseph placed his
rather and his brethren, and gave
them a possession in the land OF
Egypt. in the best of the land, in
the land of Rameses. as Pharaoh
had commanded.
IL And Joseph nourished his
father. and his brethren. and all his
fathers household. with bread, ac-
cordinG to their families.
10 And there was no bread in
all the land: for the famine was
very sore, so that the land of Egypt
and all the land of Canaan tainted
by reason of the famine.
IA And Joseph gathered I'd al,
the money that was found in the
land of Egypt. and in the land of
Canaan, for the corn which they
bought: and Joseph brought the
money into Pharaoh's house.
Is And when money failed in the
land OF Egypt. and in the land of
Canaan. all the Egyptians came I'M
to Joseph. and said. Give us bread:
for why should we die in thy pres
ence? for the money faileth.
Is And Joseph said, Give your
cattle; and I will give you for your
cattle. II money fail.
II And they brought their cattle
unto Joseph: and Joseph gave them
bread in exchange for horses, and
for the flocks, and for the cattle
of the herds, and for the asses; and
he fed them with bread for all their
cattle for that year.
they came unto him, We will not
hide 1t from my lord, how that our
money is spent: my lord also hath
our herds Of cattle; there Is not
aught left in the sight of my lord,
but our bodies. and our lands:
- Wherefore shall we die be-
fore thine eyes. both we and our
land? buy US and our land for bread.
and we and our land will be serv-
ants unto Pharaoh: and give us
seed, that we may live, and not die,
that the land be not desolate.
90 And Joseph bought all the
land of Egypt for Pharaoh: for the
Egyptians sold every man his field,
because the famine prevailed over
them: so the land became Pharaoh's.
81 And as for the people, he re-
moved them to cities from one of
the borders of Egypt even to the
other end thereof.
% Only the land OF the priests
bought he not: for the priests had
a portion assigned them of Pharao
and did eat their portion which Pha-
raoh gave them: wherefore they
sold not their lands.
% Then Joseph said unto the
people. Behold, l have bought YOU
this day and your land for Pharaoh;
