And they said to Pharaoh{gr.Pharao}, We are come to sojourn in the land, for there is no pasture for the flocks of thy servants, for the famine has prevailed in the land of Canaan{gr.Chanaan}; now then, we will dwell in the land of Goshen{gr.Gesem}. And Pharaoh{gr.Pharao} said to Joseph, Let them dwell in the land of Goshen{gr.Gesem}; and if thou knowest that there are among them able men, make them overseers of my cattle. So Jacob and his sons came into Mizraim{gr.Egypt}, to Joseph; and Pharaoh{gr.Pharao}, king of Mizraim{gr.Egypt}, heard [of it]. |
