Genesis 41:53-57

53When the seven years of plenty which had taken place in the land of Egypt came to an end,

54and 1the seven years of famine began to come, just as Joseph had said, then there was famine in all the lands; but in all the land of Egypt there was bread.

55So when all the land of Egypt suffered famine, the people cried out to Pharaoh for bread; and Pharaoh said to all the Egyptians, “Go to Joseph; 2whatever he says to you, you shall do.”

56When the famine was spread over the entire face of the earth, then Joseph opened all 3the storehouses and sold grain to the Egyptians; and the famine was severe in the land of Egypt.

57Then the people of all the earth came to Egypt to buy grain from Joseph, because 4the famine was severe in all the earth.
