3And PharaohH6547 saidH559 unto his brethrenH251, What is your occupationH4639? And they saidH559 unto PharaohH6547, Thy servantsH5650 are shepherdsH6629H7462, both we, and also our fathersH1.
4They saidH559 moreover unto PharaohH6547, For to sojournH1481 in the landH776 are we comeH935; for thy servantsH5650 have no pastureH4829 for their flocksH6629; for the famineH7458 is soreH3515 in the landH776 of CanaanH3667: now therefore, we pray thee, let thy servantsH5650 dwellH3427 in the landH776 of GoshenH1657.

6The landH776 of EgyptH4714 is before theeH6440; in the bestH4315 of the landH776 makeH3427 thy fatherH1 and brethrenH251 to dwellH3427; in the landH776 of GoshenH1657 let them dwellH3427: and if thou knowestH3426H3045 any menH582 of activityH2428 among them, then make themH7760 rulersH8269 over my cattleH4735.
