Genesis 47:19-26

19WhyH4100 should we dieH4191 before your eyesH5869, bothH1571 we and our landH127? BuyH7069 us and our landH127 for 1foodH3899, and we and our landH127 will be slavesH5650 to PharaohH6547. So giveH5414 us seedH2233, so that we may liveH2421 and not dieH4191, and that the landH127 may not be desolateH3456.”

20So JosephH3130 boughtH7069 allH3605 the landH127 of EgyptH4714 for PharaohH6547, for 2everyH376 EgyptianH4714 soldH4376 his fieldH7704, becauseH3588 the famineH7458 was severeH2388 upon them. So the landH776 becameH1961 Pharaoh’sH6547. 21As for the peopleH5971, he relocatedH5674 them to the citiesH5892 from one endH7097 of Egypt’sH4714 borderH1366 to the otherH7097. 22OnlyH7534 the landH127 of the priestsH3548 he did not buyH7069, becauseH3588 the priestsH3548 had an allotmentH2706 from PharaohH6547, and they 3livedH398 offH398 the allotmentH2706 whichH834 PharaohH6547 gaveH5414 them. ThereforeH5921H3651, they did not sellH4376 their landH127. 23Then JosephH3130 saidH559 to the peopleH5971, “BeholdH2005, todayH3117 I have purchasedH7069 you and your landH127 for PharaohH6547; nowH1887, here is seedH2233 for you, and you may sowH2232 the landH127. 244At the harvestH8393 you shall giveH5414 a 5fifthH2549 to PharaohH6547, and 6four-fifthsH702H3027 shall be your own for seedH2233 of the fieldH7704 and for your foodH400, and for those of your householdsH1004 and as foodH398 for your littleH2945 onesH2945.” 25So they saidH559, “You have savedH2421 our livesH2421! Let us findH4672 favorH2580 in the sightH5869 of my lordH113, and we will be Pharaoh’sH6547 slavesH5650.” 26JosephH3130 madeH7760 it a statuteH2706 concerningH5921 the landH127 of EgyptH4714, valid to thisH2088 dayH3117, that PharaohH6547 was to have the fifthH2569; 7onlyH7534 the landH127 of the priestsH3548 8did not becomeH1961 Pharaoh’sH6547.
