and

and

and

that
they
haue,
are
come
out
of
the
land
of

and
behold,

land
of
Goshen.
2
And
hee
tooke
some
of
his
brethren,
euen
fiue
men,
&
presented
them
vnto
Pharaoh.
3
And
Pharaoh
said

What
is
your
occupation?
And
they
said
vnto
Pharaoh,
Thy
seruants
are
shepheards,
both
wee
and
also
our
fathers.
4
They
said
moreouer
vnto
Pharaoh,
For
to
soiourne
in
the
land
are
we
come:
for
thy
seruants
haue
no
pasture
for
their
flockes,
for
the
famine
is
sore
in
the
land
of
Canaan:
now
therefore
we
pray
thee,
let
thy
seruants
dwel
in
the
land
of
Goshen.
5
And
Pharaoh
spake
vnto
Ioseph,
saying,
Thy
father
and
thy
brethren
are
come
vnto
thee.
6
The
land
of
Egypt
is

in
the
best
of
the
land
make
thy
father
and
brethren
to
dwell,
in
the
lande
of
Goshen
let
them
dwell:
and
if
thou
knowest
any
man
of
actiuitie
amongst
them,
then
make
them
rulers
ouer
my
cattell.
7
And
Ioseph
brought
in
Iacob
his
father,
and
set
him
before
Pharaoh:
and
Iacob
blessed
Pharaoh.
8
And
Pharaoh
said
vnto
Iacob,
How
old
art
thou?
9
And
Iacob
said
vnto
Pharaoh,
The
dayes
of
the
yeeres
of
my
pilgrimage
are
an
hundred
&
thirtie
yeres:
few
and
euill
haue
the
dayes
of
the
yeeres
of
my
life
bene,
and
haue
not
attained
vnto
the
dayes
of
the
yeeres
of
the
life
of
my
fathers,
in
the
dayes
of
their
pilgrimage.
10
And
Iacob
blessed
Pharaoh,
and
went
out
from
before
Pharaoh.
11
And
Ioseph
placed
his
father,
and
his
brethren,
and
gaue
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
Ioseph
nourished
his
father
and
his
brethren,
and
all
his
fathers
houshold
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
Ioseph
gathered
vp
all
the
money
that
was
found
in
the
land
of
Egypt,
and
in
the
land
of
Canaan,
for
the
corne
which
they
bought:
and
Ioseph
brought
the
money
into
Pharaohs
house.
15
And
when
money
failed
in
the
land
of
Egypt,
and
in
the
land
of
Canaan,
all
the
Egyptians
came
vnto
Ioseph,
and
said,
Giue
vs
bread:
for
why
should
we
die
in
thy
presence?
for
the
money
faileth.
16
And
Ioseph
said,
Giue
your
cattell:
and
I
will
giue
you
for
your
catell,
if
money
faile.
17
And
they
brought
their
cattel
vnto
Ioseph:
and
Ioseph
gaue
them
bread
in
exchange
for
horses,
and
for
the
flockes,
and
for
the
cattell
of
the
heards,
and
for
the
asses,
and
he
fed
them
with
bread,
for
all
their
cattel,
for
that
yeere.
18
When
that
yeere
was
ended,
they
came
vnto
him
the
second
yeere,
and
said
vnto
him,
We
will
not
hide
it
from
my
lord,
how
that
our
money
is
spent,
my
lord
also
had
our
heards
of
cattell:
there
is
not
ought
left
in
the
sight
of
my
lord,
but
our
bodies,
and
our
lands.
19
Wherfore
shall
we
die
before
thine
eyes,
both
we,
and
our
land?
buy
vs
and
our
land
for
bread,
and
we
and
our
land
will
be
seruants
vnto
Pharaoh:
and
giue
vs
seede
that
we
may
liue
and
not
die,
that
the
land
be
not
desolate.
20
And
Ioseph
bought
all
the
land
of
Egypt
for
Pharaoh:
for
the
Egyptians
sold
euery
man
his
field,
because
the
famine
preuailed
ouer
them:
so
the
land
became
Pharaohs.
21
And
as
for
the
people,
he
remoued
them
to
cities
from
one
end
of
the
borders
of
Egypt,
euen
to
the
other
ende
thereof.
22
Onely
the
land
of
the
Priests
bought
he
not:
for
the
priests
had
a
portion
assigned
them
of
Pharaoh,
and
did
eate
their
portion
which
Pharaoh
gaue
them:
wherefore
they
solde
not
their
lands.
23
Then
Ioseph
said
vnto
the
people,
Behold,
I
haue
bought
you
this
day,
and
your
land
for
Pharaoh:
Loe,
here
is
seed
for
you,
and
ye
shall
sow
the
land.
24
And
it
shall
come
to
passe
in
the
increase,
that
you
shall
giue
the
fift
part
vnto
Pharaoh,
and
foure
parts
shall
be
your
owne,
for
seed
of
the
field,
and
for
your
food,
and
for
them
of
your
households,
and
for
food
for
your
litle
ones.
25
And
they
said,
Thou
hast
saued
our
liues:
let
vs
find
grace
in
the
sight
of
my
lord,
and
we
will
be
Pharaohs
seruants.
26
And
Ioseph
made
it
a
law
ouer
the
land
of
Egypt
vnto
this
day,
that
Pharaoh
should
haue
the
fift
part:
except
the
land
of
the
priests
onely,
which
became
not
Pharaohs.
27
And
Israel
dwelt
in
the
land
of
Egypt
in
the
countrey
of
Goshen,
and
they
had
possessions
therein,
and
grew,
and
multiplied
exceedingly.
28
And
Iacob
liued
in
the
land
of
Egypt
seuenteene
yeres:
so
the
whole
age
of
Iacob
was
an
hundred
fourtie
and
seuen
yeeres.
29
And
the
time
drew
nigh
that
Israel
must
die,
and
he
called
his
sonne
Ioseph,
and
said
vnto
him,
If
now
I
haue
found
grace
in
thy
sight,
put,
I
pray
thee,
thy
hand
vnder
my
thigh,
and
deale
kindly
and
truely
with
mee,
bury
me
not,
I
pray
thee,
in
Egypt.
30
But
I
will
lie
with
my
fathers,
and
thou
shalt
carie
mee
out
of
Egypt,
and
bury
me
in
their
burying
place:
and
he
said,
I
will
doe
as
thou
hast
said.
31
And
he
said,
Sweare
vnto
mee:
and
he
sware
vnto
him.
And
Israel
bowed
himselfe
vpon
the
beds
head.
