Genesis 47:10-16 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

10. And Jacob blessed Pharaoh, and he went out from the presence of Pharaoh.

11. And Joseph settled his father and his brothers, and he gave them property in the land of Egypt in the best part of the land, in the land of Rameses, as Pharaoh had instructed.

12. And Joseph provided his father and his brothers and all the household of his father with food, according to the number of their children.

13. Now there was no food in all the land, for the famine was very severe. And the land of Egypt languished, with the land of Canaan, on account of the famine.

14. And Joseph collected all the money found in the land of Egypt and in the land of Canaan in exchange for the grain that they were buying. And Joseph brought the money into the house of Pharaoh.

15. And when the money was spent in the land of Egypt and from the land of Canaan, all of Egypt came to Joseph, saying, “Give us food! Why should we die before you? For the money is used up.”

16. And Joseph said, “Give your livestock and I will give you food in exchange for your livestock if your money is used up.”
