Acts 7:9-16

9AndG2532 the patriarchsG3588G3966, moved with envyG2206, soldG591 JosephG2501 intoG1519 EgyptG125: butG2532 GodG3588G2316 wasG1510 withG3326 himG846,

10AndG2532 deliveredG1807 himG846 out ofG1537 allG3956 hisG846 afflictionsG3588G2347, andG2532 gaveG1325 himG846 favourG5485 andG2532 wisdomG4678 in the sight ofG1726 PharaohG5328 kingG935 of EgyptG125; andG2532 he madeG2525 himG846 governorG2233 overG1909 EgyptG125 andG2532 allG3650 hisG846 houseG3588G3624.

11NowG1161 there cameG2064 a dearthG3042 overG1909 allG3650 the landG3588G1093 of EgyptG125 andG2532 CanaanG5477, andG2532 greatG3173 afflictionG2347: andG2532 ourG1473 fathersG3588G3962 foundG2147 noG3756 sustenanceG5527.

12ButG1161 whenG191 JacobG2384 heardG191 that there wasG1510 grainG4621 inG1722 EgyptG125, he sent outG1821 ourG1473 fathersG3588G3962 firstG4412.

13AndG2532 atG1722 the secondG1208 time JosephG2501 was made knownG319 toG3588G80 hisG846 brethrenG3588G80; andG2532 Joseph’sG2501 kindredG3588G1085 was madeG1096 knownG5318 unto PharaohG5328.

14ThenG1161 sentG649 JosephG2501, andG1161 calledG3333 hisG846 fatherG3588G3962 JacobG2384 toG1722 him, andG2532 allG3956 hisG846 kindredG3588G4772, threescoreG1440 and fifteenG4002 soulsG5590.

15SoG1161 JacobG2384 went downG2597 intoG1519 EgyptG125, andG2532 diedG5053, heG846, andG2532 ourG1473 fathersG3588G3962,

16AndG2532 were carried overG3346 intoG1519 ShechemG4966, andG2532 laidG5087 inG1722 the sepulchreG3588G3418 thatG3739 AbrahamG11 boughtG5608 for a sumG5092 of moneyG694 of the sonsG3588G5207 ofG3844 HamorG1697 the father ofG3844 ShechemG3588G4966.
