Löydetty 797 Tulokset: Joseph In Egypt
When all the money in Egypt and Canaan was exhausted, all the Egyptians came to Joseph, pleading, 'Give us food, unless you want us to die before your eyes! For our money has come to an end.' (Genesis 47, 15)
Joseph replied, 'Hand over your livestock and I shall issue you food in exchange for your livestock, if your money has come to an end.' (Genesis 47, 16)
So they brought their livestock to Joseph, and Joseph gave them food in exchange for horses and livestock, whether sheep or cattle, and for donkeys. Thus he saw them through that year with food in exchange for all their livestock. (Genesis 47, 17)
Thus Joseph acquired all the land in Egypt for Pharaoh, since one by one the Egyptians sold their fields, so hard pressed were they by the famine; and the whole country passed into Pharaoh's possession, (Genesis 47, 20)
while the people he reduced to serfdom from one end of Egypt to the other. (Genesis 47, 21)
Then Joseph said to the people, 'This is how we stand: I have bought you out, with your land, on Pharaoh's behalf. Here is seed for you to sow the land. (Genesis 47, 23)
So Joseph made a law, still in force today, as regards the soil of Egypt, that one-fifth should go to Pharaoh. Only the land of the priests did not go to Pharaoh. (Genesis 47, 26)
Thus Israel settled in Egypt, in the region of Goshen. They acquired property there; they were fruitful and grew very numerous. (Genesis 47, 27)
Jacob lived seventeen years in Egypt; thus Jacob's total age came to a hundred and forty-seven years. (Genesis 47, 28)
When Israel's time to die drew near he sent for his son Joseph and said to him, 'If you really love me, place your hand under my thigh as pledge that you will act with faithful love towards me: do not bury me in Egypt! (Genesis 47, 29)
When I lie down with my ancestors, carry me out of Egypt and bury me in their tomb.' 'I shall do as you say,' he replied. (Genesis 47, 30)
Some time later, Joseph was informed, 'Your father has been taken ill.' So he took with him his two sons Manasseh and Ephraim. (Genesis 48, 1)
