Genesis 47:15-17

15When the money was all spent in the land of Egypt and in the land of Canaan, all the Egyptians came to Joseph saying, “Give us 1food, for 2why should we die in your presence? For our money is 3gone.”

16Then Joseph said, “Give up your livestock, and I will give you food for your livestock, since your money is 4gone.”

17So they brought their livestock to Joseph, and Joseph gave them 5food in exchange for the horses and the 6flocks and the herds and the donkeys; and he 7fed them with 8food in exchange for all their livestock 9that year.
