Chapter 47
Then
Joseph
came
and
told
Pharaoh,
and
said,
My
father
and
my
brethren,
and
their
flocks,
and
their
herds,
and
all
that
they
have,
are
come
out
of
the
land
of
Canaan;
and,
behold,
they
are
in
the
land
of
Goshen.
2
And
he
took
some
of
his
brethren,
even
five
men,
and
presented
them
unto
Pharaoh.
3
And
Pharaoh
said
unto
his
brethren,
What
is
your
occupation?
And
they
said
unto
Pharaoh,
Thy
servants
are
shepherds,
both
we,
and
also
our
fathers.
4
They
said
moreover
unto
Pharaoh,
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.
5
And
Pharaoh
spake
unto
Joseph,
saying,
Thy
father
and
thy
brethren
are
come
unto
thee:
6
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
if
thou
knowest
any
men
of
activity
among
them,
then
make
them
rulers
over
my
cattle.
7
And
Joseph
brought
in
Jacob
his
father,
and
set
him
before
Pharaoh:
and
Jacob
blessed
Pharaoh.
8
And
Pharaoh
said
unto
Jacob,
How
old
art
thou?
9
And
Jacob
said
unto
Pharaoh,
The
days
of
the
years
of
my
pilgrimage
are
an
hundred
and
thirty
years:
few
and
evil
have
the
days
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.
11
And
Joseph
placed
his
father
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.
12
And
Joseph
nourished
his
father,
and
his
brethren,
and
all
his
father’s
household,
with
bread,
according
to
their
families.
13
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
fainted
by
reason
of
the
famine.
14
And
Joseph
gathered
up
all
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.
15
And
when
money
failed
in
the
land
of
Egypt,
and
in
the
land
of
Canaan,
all
the
Egyptians
came
unto
Joseph,
and
said,
Give
us
bread:
for
why
should
we
die
in
thy
presence?
for
the
money
faileth.
16
And
Joseph
said,
Give
your
cattle;
and
I
will
give
you
for
your
cattle,
if
money
fail.
17
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.
18
When
that
year
was
ended,
they
came
unto
him
the
second
year,
and
said
unto
him,
We
will
not
hide
it
from
my
lord,
how
that
our
money
is
spent;
my
lord
also
hath
our
herds
of
cattle;
there
is
not
ought
left
in
the
sight
of
my
lord,
but
our
bodies,
and
our
lands:
19
Wherefore
shall
we
die
before
thine
eyes,
both
we
and
our
land?
buy
us
and
our
land
for
bread,
and
we
and
our
land
will
be
servants
unto
Pharaoh:
and
give
us
seed,
that
we
may
live,
and
not
die,
that
the
land
be
not
desolate.
20
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.
21
And
as
for
the
people,
he
removed
them
to
cities
from
one
end
of
the
borders
of
Egypt
even
to
the
other
end
thereof.
22
Only
the
land
of
the
priests
bought
he
not;
for
the
priests
had
a
portion
assigned
them
of
Pharaoh,
and
did
eat
their
portion
which
Pharaoh
gave
them:
wherefore
they
sold
not
their
lands.
23
Then
Joseph
said
unto
the
people,
Behold,
I
have
bought
you
this
day
and
your
land
for
Pharaoh:
lo,
here
is
seed
for
you,
and
ye
shall
sow
the
land.
24
And
it
shall
come
to
pass
in
the
increase,
that
ye
shall
give
the
fifth
part
unto
Pharaoh,
and
four
parts
shall
be
your
own,
for
seed
of
the
field,
and
for
your
food,
and
for
them
of
your
households,
and
for
food
for
your
little
ones.
25
And
they
said,
Thou
hast
saved
our
lives:
let
us
find
grace
in
the
sight
of
my
lord,
and
we
will
be
Pharaoh’s
servants.
26
And
Joseph
made
it
a
law
over
the
land
of
Egypt
unto
this
day,
that
Pharaoh
should
have
the
fifth
part;
except
the
land
of
the
priests
only,
which
became
not
Pharaoh’s.
27
And
Israel
dwelt
in
the
land
of
Egypt,
in
the
country
of
Goshen;
and
they
had
possessions
therein,
and
grew,
and
multiplied
exceedingly.
28
And
Jacob
lived
in
the
land
of
Egypt
seventeen
years:
so
the
whole
age
of
Jacob
was
an
hundred
forty
and
seven
years.
29
And
the
time
drew
nigh
that
Israel
must
die:
and
he
called
his
son
Joseph,
and
said
unto
him,
If
now
I
have
found
grace
in
thy
sight,
put,
I
pray
thee,
thy
hand
under
my
thigh,
and
deal
kindly
and
truly
with
me;
bury
me
not,
I
pray
thee,
in
Egypt:
30
But
I
will
lie
with
my
fathers,
and
thou
shalt
carry
me
out
of
Egypt,
and
bury
me
in
their
buryingplace.
And
he
said,
I
will
do
as
thou
hast
said.
31
And
he
said,
Swear
unto
me.
And
he
sware
unto
him.
And
Israel
bowed
himself
upon
the
bed’s
head.
