Génesis 47

1Then Joseph^H3130 went^H935 in and told^H5046 Pharaoh^H6547, and said^H559, My father^H1 and my brethren^H251, and their flocks^H6629, and their herds^H1241, and all that they have, are come out^H935 of the land^H776 of Canaan^H3667; and, behold, they are in the land^H776 of Goshen^H1657. 2And from^H7097 among his brethren^H251 he took^H3947 five^H2568 men^H582, and presented^H3322 them unto^H6440 Pharaoh^H6547. 3And Pharaoh^H6547 said^H559 unto his brethren^H251, What is your occupation^H4639? And they said^H559 unto Pharaoh^H6547, Thy servants^H5650 are shepherds^H7462, both we, and our fathers^H1. 4And they said^H559 unto Pharaoh^H6547, To sojourn^H1481 in the land^H776 are we come^H935; for there is no pasture^H4829 for thy servants^H5650' flocks^H6629; for the famine^H7458 is sore^H3515 in the land^H776 of Canaan^H3667: now therefore, we pray thee, let thy servants^H5650 dwell^H3427 in the land^H776 of Goshen^H1657. 5And Pharaoh^H6547 spake^H559 unto Joseph^H3130, saying^H559, Thy father^H1 and thy brethren^H251 are come^H935 unto thee: 6the land^H776 of Egypt^H4714 is before thee^H6440; in the best^H4315 of the land^H776 make^H3427 thy father^H1 and thy brethren^H251 to dwell^H3427; in the land^H776 of Goshen^H1657 let them dwell^H3427: and if thou knowest^H3045 any able^H2428 men^H582 among them, then make them^H7760 rulers^H8269 over my cattle^H4735. 7And Joseph^H3130 brought in^H935 Jacob^H3290 his father^H1, and set him^H5975 before^H6440 Pharaoh^H6547: and Jacob^H3290 blessed^H1288 Pharaoh^H6547. 8And Pharaoh^H6547 said^H559 unto Jacob^H3290, How^H4100 many are the days^H3117 of the years of thy life? 9And Jacob^H3290 said^H559 unto Pharaoh^H6547, The days^H3117 of the years^H8141 of my pilgrimage^H4033 are a hundred^H3967 and thirty^H7970 years^H8141: few^H4592 and evil^H7451 have been the days^H3117 of the years^H8141 of my life^H2416, and they have not attained^H5381 unto the days^H3117 of the years^H8141 of the life^H2416 of my fathers^H1 in the days^H3117 of their pilgrimage^H4033. 10And Jacob^H3290 blessed^H1288 Pharaoh^H6547, and went out^H3318 from the presence^H6440 of Pharaoh^H6547. 11And Joseph^H3130 placed^H3427 his father^H1 and his brethren^H251, and gave^H5414 them a possession^H272 in the land^H776 of Egypt^H4714, in the best^H4315 of the land^H776, in the land^H776 of Rameses^H7486, as Pharaoh^H6547 had commanded^H6680. 12And Joseph^H3130 nourished^H3557 his father^H1, and his brethren^H251, and all his father's^H1 household^H1004, with bread^H3899, according^H6310 to their families^H2945. 13And there was no bread^H3899 in all the land^H776; for the famine^H7458 was very^H3966 sore^H3515, so that the land^H776 of Egypt^H4714 and the land^H776 of Canaan^H3667 fainted^H3856 by reason^H6440 of the famine^H7458. 14And Joseph^H3130 gathered up^H3950 all the money^H3701 that was found^H4672 in the land^H776 of Egypt^H4714, and in the land^H776 of Canaan^H3667, for the grain^H7668 which they bought^H7666: and Joseph^H3130 brought^H935 the money^H3701 into Pharaoh's^H6547 house^H1004. 15And when the money^H3701 was all spent^H8552 in the land^H776 of Egypt^H4714, and in the land^H776 of Canaan^H3667, all the Egyptians^H4714 came^H935 unto Joseph^H3130, and said^H559, Give^H3051 us bread^H3899: for why should we die^H4191 in thy presence? for our money^H3701 faileth^H656. 16And Joseph^H3130 said^H559, Give^H3051 your cattle^H4735; and I will give^H5414 you for your cattle^H4735, if money^H3701 fail^H656. 17And they brought^H935 their cattle^H4735 unto Joseph^H3130; and Joseph^H3130 gave^H5414 them bread^H3899 in exchange for the horses^H5483, and for the flocks^H6629, and for the^H4735 herds^H1241, and for the asses^H2543: and he fed^H5095 them with bread^H3899 in exchange for all their cattle^H4735 for that year^H8141. 18And when that year^H8141 was ended^H8552, they came^H935 unto him the second^H8145 year^H8141, and said^H559 unto him, We will not hide^H3582 from my lord^H113, how that our money^H3701 is all spent^H8552; and the herds^H4735 of cattle^H929 are my^H413 lord's^H113; there is nought left^H7604 in the sight^H6440 of my lord^H113, but our bodies^H1472, and our lands^H127: 19wherefore should we die^H4191 before thine eyes^H5869, both we and our land^H127? buy^H7069 us and our land^H127 for bread^H3899, and we and our land^H127 will be servants^H5650 unto Pharaoh^H6547: and give^H5414 us seed^H2233, that we may live^H2421, and not die^H4191, and that the land^H127 be not desolate^H3456. 20So Joseph^H3130 bought^H7069 all the land^H127 of Egypt^H4714 for Pharaoh^H6547; for the Egyptians^H4714 sold^H4376 every man^H376 his field^H7704, because the famine^H7458 was sore^H2388 upon them: and the land^H776 became Pharaoh's^H6547. 21And as for the people^H5971, he removed^H5674 them to the cities^H5892 from one end^H7097 of the border^H1366 of Egypt^H4714 even to the other end^H7097 thereof. 22Only the land^H127 of the priests^H3548 bought he^H7069 not: for the priests^H3548 had a portion^H2706 from Pharaoh^H6547, and did eat^H398 their portion^H2706 which Pharaoh^H6547 gave^H5414 them; wherefore they sold^H4376 not their land^H127. 23Then Joseph^H3130 said^H559 unto the people^H5971, Behold, I have bought^H7069 you this day^H3117 and your land^H127 for Pharaoh^H6547: lo^H1887, here is seed^H2233 for you, and ye shall sow^H2232 the land^H127. 24And it shall come to pass at the ingatherings^H8393, that ye shall give^H5414 a fifth^H2549 unto Pharaoh^H6547, and four^H702 parts^H3027 shall be your own, for seed^H2233 of the field^H7704, and for your food^H400, and for them of your households^H1004, and for food^H398 for your little ones^H2945. 25And they said^H559, Thou hast saved our lives^H2421: let us find^H4672 favor^H2580 in the sight^H5869 of my lord^H113, and we will be Pharaoh's^H6547 servants^H5650. 26And Joseph^H3130 made^H7760 it a statute^H2706 concerning the land^H127 of Egypt^H4714 unto this day^H3117, that Pharaoh^H6547 should have the fifth^H2569; only the land^H127 of the priests^H3548 alone became not^H7535 Pharaoh's^H6547. 27And Israel^H3478 dwelt^H3427 in the land^H776 of Egypt^H4714, in the land^H776 of Goshen^H1657; and they gat them possessions^H270 therein, and were fruitful^H6509, and multiplied^H7235 exceedingly^H3966. 28And Jacob^H3290 lived^H2421 in the land^H776 of Egypt^H4714 seventeen^H6240 years^H8141: so the days of Jacob^H3290, the years^H8141 of his life, were a hundred^H3967 forty^H705 and seven^H7651 years^H8141. 29And the time^H3117 drew near^H7126 that Israel^H3478 must die^H4191: and he called^H7121 his son^H1121 Joseph^H3130, and said^H559 unto him, If now I have found^H4672 favor^H2580 in thy sight^H5869, put^H7760, I pray thee, thy hand^H3027 under my thigh^H3409, and deal^H6213 kindly^H2617 and truly^H571 with me: bury^H6912 me not, I pray thee, in Egypt^H4714; 30but when I sleep^H7901 with my fathers^H1, thou shalt carry^H5375 me out of Egypt^H4714, and bury^H6912 me in their burying-place^H6900. And he said^H559, I will do^H6213 as thou hast said^H1697. 31And he said^H559, Swear^H7650 unto me: and he sware^H7650 unto him. And Israel^H3478 bowed^H7812 himself upon the bed's^H4296 head^H7218.
