the sons of Jacob, which were born to him in Padanaram. GEN 35: 27 And Jacob came unto Isaac his father unto Mamre, unto the city of Arbah, which [is] Hebron, where Abraham and Isaac sojourned. GEN 35: 28 And the days of Isaac were an hundred and fourscore years. GEN 35: 29 And Isaac gave up the ghost, and died, and was gathered unto his people, [ being] old and full of days: and his sons Esau and Jacob buried him. GEN 36: 1 Now these [are] the generations of Esau, who [is] Edom. GEN 36: 2 Esau took his wives of the daughters of Canaan; Adah the daughter of Elon the Hittite, and Aholibamah the daughter of Anah the daughter of Zibeon the Hivite; GEN 36: 3 And Bashemath Ishmael's daughter, sister of Nebajoth. GEN 36: 4 And Adah bare to Esau Eliphaz; and Bashemath bare Reuel; GEN 36: 5 And Aholibamah bare Jeush, and Jaalam, and Korah: these [are] the sons of Esau, which were born unto him in the land of Canaan. GEN 36: 6 And Esau took his wives, and his sons, and his daughters, and all the persons of his house, and his cattle, and all his beasts, and all his substance, which he had got in the land of Canaan; and went into the country from the face of his brother Jacob. GEN 36: 7 For their riches were more than that they might dwell together; and the land wherein they were strangers could not bear them because of their cattle. GEN 36: 8 Thus dwelt Esau in mount Seir: Esau [is] Edom. GEN 36: 9 And these [are] the generations of Esau the father of the Edomites in mount Seir: GEN 36: 10 These [are] the names of Esau's sons; Eliphaz the son of Adah the wife of Esau, Reuel the son of Bashemath the wife of Esau. GEN 36: 11 And the sons of Eliphaz were Teman, Omar, Zepho, and Gatam, and Kenaz. GEN 36: 12 And Timna was concubine to Eliphaz Esau's son; and she bare to Eliphaz Amalek: these [were] the sons of Adah Esau's wife. GEN 36: 13 And these [are] the sons of Reuel; Nahath, and Zerah, Shammah, and Mizzah: these were the sons of Bashemath Esau's wife. GEN 36: 14 And these were the sons of Aholibamah, the daughter of Anah the daughter of Zibeon, Esau's wife: and she bare to Esau Jeush, and Jaalam, and Korah. GEN 36: 15 These [were] dukes of the sons of Esau: the sons of Eliphaz the firstborn [son] of Esau; duke Teman, duke Omar, duke Zepho, duke Kenaz, GEN 36: 16 Duke Korah, duke Gatam, [and] duke Amalek: these [are] the dukes [ that came] of Eliphaz in the land of Edom; these [were] the sons of Adah. GEN 36: 17 And these [are] the sons of Reuel Esau's son; duke Nahath, duke Zerah, duke Shammah, duke Mizzah: these [are] the dukes [that came] of Reuel in the land of Edom; these [are] the sons of Bashemath Esau's wife. GEN 36: 18 And these [are] the sons of Aholibamah Esau's wife; duke Jeush, duke Jaalam, duke Korah: these [were] the dukes [that came] of Aholibamah the daughter of Anah, Esau's wife. GEN 36: 19 These [are] the sons of Esau, who [is] Edom, and these [are] their dukes. GEN 36: 20 These [are] the sons of Seir the Horite, who inhabited the land; Lotan, and Shobal, and Zibeon, and Anah, GEN 36: 21 And Dishon, and Ezer, and Dishan: these [are] the dukes of the Horites, the children of Seir in the land of Edom. GEN 36: 22 And the children of Lotan were Hori and Hemam; and Lotan's sister [was] Timna. GEN 36: 23 And the children of Shobal [were] these; Alvan, and Manahath, and Ebal, Shepho, and Onam. GEN 36: 24 And these [are] the children of Zibeon; both Ajah, and Anah: this [ was that] Anah that found the mules in the wilderness, as he fed the asses of Zibeon his father. GEN 36: 25 And the children of Anah [were] these; Dishon, and Aholibamah the daughter of Anah. GEN 36: 26 And these [are] the children of Dishon; Hemdan, and Eshban, and Ithran, and Cheran. GEN 36: 27 The children of Ezer [are] these; Bilhan, and Zaavan, and Akan. GEN 36: 28 The children of Dishan [are] these; Uz, and Aran. GEN 36: 29 These [are] the dukes [that came] of the Horites; duke Lotan, duke Shobal, duke Zibeon, duke Anah, GEN 36: 30 Duke Dishon, duke Ezer, duke Dishan: these [are] the dukes [that came] of Hori, among their dukes in the land of Seir. GEN 36: 31 And these [are] the kings that reigned in the land of Edom, before there reigned any king over the children of Israel. GEN 36: 32 And Bela the son of Beor reigned in Edom: and the name of his city [ was] Dinhabah. GEN 36: 33 And Bela died, and Jobab the son of Zerah of Bozrah reigned in his stead. GEN 36: 34 And Jobab died, and Husham of the land of Temani reigned in his stead. GEN 36: 35 And Husham died, and Hadad the son of Bedad, who smote Midian in the field of Moab, reigned in his stead: and the name of his city [was] Avith. GEN 36: 36 And Hadad died, and Samlah of Masrekah reigned in his stead. GEN 36: 37 And Samlah died, and Saul of Rehoboth [by] the river reigned in his stead. GEN 36: 38 And Saul died, and Baalhanan the son of Achbor reigned in his stead. GEN 36: 39 And Baalhanan the son of Achbor died, and Hadar reigned in his stead: and the name of his city [was] Pau; and his wife's name [was] Mehetabel, the daughter of Matred, the daughter of Mezahab. GEN 36: 40 And these [are] the names of the dukes [that came] of Esau, according to their families, after their places, by their names; duke Timnah, duke Alvah, duke Jetheth, GEN 36: 41 Duke Aholibamah, duke Elah, duke Pinon, GEN 36: 42 Duke Kenaz, duke Teman, duke Mibzar, GEN 36: 43 Duke Magdiel, duke Iram: these [be] the dukes of Edom, according to their habitations in the land of their possession: he [is] Esau the father of the Edomites. GEN 37: 1 And Jacob dwelt in the land wherein his father was a stranger, in the land of Canaan. GEN 37: 2 These [are] the generations of Jacob. Joseph, [being] seventeen years old, was feeding the flock with his brethren; and the lad [was] with the sons of Bilhah, and with the sons of Zilpah, his father's wives: and Joseph brought unto his father their evil report. GEN 37: 3 Now Israel loved Joseph more than all his children, because he [was] the son of his old age: and he made him a coat of [many] colours. GEN 37: 4 And when his brethren saw that their father loved him more than all his brethren, they hated him, and could not speak peaceably unto him. GEN 37: 5 And Joseph dreamed a dream, and he told [it] his brethren: and they hated him yet the more. GEN 37: 6 And he said unto them, Hear, I pray you, this dream which I have dreamed: GEN 37: 7 For, behold, we [were] binding sheaves in the field, and, lo, my sheaf arose, and also stood upright; and, behold, your sheaves stood round about, and made obeisance to my sheaf. GEN 37: 8 And his brethren said to him, Shalt thou indeed reign over us? or shalt thou indeed have dominion over us? And they hated him yet the more for his dreams, and for his words. GEN 37: 9 And he dreamed yet another dream, and told it his brethren, and said, Behold, I have dreamed a dream more; and, behold, the sun and the moon and the eleven stars made obeisance to me. GEN 37: 10 And he told [it] to his father, and to his brethren: and his father rebuked him, and said unto him, What [is] this dream that thou hast dreamed? Shall I and thy mother and thy brethren indeed come to bow down ourselves to thee to the earth? GEN 37: 11 And his brethren envied him; but his father observed the saying. GEN 37: 12 And his brethren went to feed their father's flock in Shechem. GEN 37: 13 And Israel said unto Joseph, Do not thy brethren feed [the flock] in Shechem? come, and I will send thee unto them. And he said to him, Here [am I] . GEN 37: 14 And he said to him, Go, I pray thee, see whether it be well with thy brethren, and well with the flocks; and bring me word again. So he sent him out of the vale of Hebron, and he came to Shechem. GEN 37: 15 And a certain man found him, and, behold, [he was] wandering in the field: and the man asked him, saying, What seekest thou? GEN 37: 16 And he said, I seek my brethren: tell me, I pray thee, where they feed [ their flocks] . GEN 37: 17 And the man said, They are departed hence; for I heard them say, Let us go to Dothan. And Joseph went after his brethren, and found them in Dothan. GEN 37: 18 And when they saw him afar off, even before he came near unto them, they conspired against him to slay him. GEN 37: 19 And they said one to another, Behold, this dreamer cometh. GEN 37: 20 Come now therefore, and let us slay him, and cast him into some pit, and we will say, Some evil beast hath devoured him: and we shall see what will become of his dreams. GEN 37: 21 And Reuben heard [it] , and he delivered him out of their hands; and said, Let us not kill him. GEN 37: 22 And Reuben said unto them, Shed no blood, [but] cast him into this pit that [is] in the wilderness, and lay no hand upon him; that he might rid him out of their hands, to deliver him to his father again. GEN 37: 23 And it came to pass, when Joseph was come unto his brethren, that they stripped Joseph out of his coat, [his] coat of [many] colours that [was] on him; GEN 37: 24 And they took him, and cast him into a pit: and the pit [was] empty, [ there was] no water in it. GEN 37: 25 And they sat down to eat bread: and they lifted up their eyes and looked, and, behold, a company of Ishmeelites came from Gilead with their camels bearing spicery and balm and myrrh, going to carry [it] down to Egypt. GEN 37: 26 And Judah said unto his brethren, What profit [is it] if we slay our brother, and conceal his blood? GEN 37: 27 Come, and let us sell him to the Ishmeelites, and let not our hand be upon him; for he [is] our brother [and] our flesh. And his brethren were content. GEN 37: 28 Then there passed by Midianites merchantmen; and they drew and lifted up Joseph out of the pit, and sold Joseph to the Ishmeelites for twenty [pieces] of silver: and they brought Joseph into Egypt. GEN 37: 29 And Reuben returned unto the pit; and, behold, Joseph [was] not in the pit; and he rent his clothes. GEN 37: 30 And he returned unto his brethren, and said, The child [is] not; and I, whither shall I go? GEN 37: 31 And they took Joseph's coat, and killed a kid of the goats, and dipped the coat in the blood; GEN 37: 32 And they sent the coat of [many] colours, and they brought [it] to their father; and said, This have we found: know now whether it [be] thy son's coat or no. GEN 37: 33 And he knew it, and said, [It is] my son's coat; an evil beast hath devoured him; Joseph is without doubt rent in pieces. GEN 37: 34 And Jacob rent his clothes, and put sackcloth upon his loins, and mourned for his son many days. GEN 37: 35 And all his sons and all his daughters rose up to comfort him; but he refused to be comforted; and he said, For I will go down into the grave unto my son mourning. Thus his father wept for him. GEN 37: 36 And the Midianites sold him into Egypt unto Potiphar, an officer of Pharaoh's, [and] captain of the guard. GEN 38: 1 And it came to pass at that time, that Judah went down from his brethren, and turned in to a certain Adullamite, whose name [was] Hirah. GEN 38: 2 And Judah saw there a daughter of a certain Canaanite, whose name [was] Shuah; and he took her, and went in unto her. GEN 38: 3 And she conceived, and bare a son; and he called his name Er. GEN 38: 4 And she conceived again, and bare a son; and she called his name Onan. GEN 38: 5 And she yet again conceived, and bare a son; and called his name Shelah: and he was at Chezib, when she bare him. GEN 38: 6 And Judah took a wife for Er his firstborn, whose name [was] Tamar. GEN 38: 7 And Er, Judah's firstborn, was wicked in the sight of the LORD; and the LORD slew him. GEN 38: 8 And Judah said unto Onan, Go in unto thy brother's wife, and marry her, and raise up seed to thy brother. GEN 38: 9 And Onan knew that the seed should not be his; and it came to pass, when he went in unto his brother's wife, that he spilled [it] on the ground, lest that he should give seed to his brother. GEN 38: 10 And the thing which he did displeased the LORD: wherefore he slew him also. GEN 38: 11 Then said Judah to Tamar his daughter in law, Remain a widow at thy father's house, till Shelah my son be grown: for he said, Lest peradventure he die also, as his brethren [did] . And Tamar went and dwelt in her father's house. GEN 38: 12 And in process of time the daughter of Shuah Judah's wife died; and Judah was comforted, and went up unto his sheepshearers to Timnath, he and his friend Hirah the Adullamite. GEN 38: 13 And it was told Tamar, saying, Behold thy father in law goeth up to Timnath to shear his sheep. GEN 38: 14 And she put her widow's garments off from her, and covered her with a veil, and wrapped herself, and sat in an open place, which [is] by the way to Timnath; for she saw that Shelah was grown, and she was not given unto him to wife. GEN 38: 15 When Judah saw her, he thought her [to be] an harlot; because she had covered her face. GEN 38: 16 And he turned unto her by the way, and said, Go to, I pray thee, let me come in unto thee; ( for he knew not that she [was] his daughter in law. ) And she said, What wilt thou give me, that thou mayest come in unto me? GEN 38: 17 And he said, I will send [thee] a kid from the flock. And she said, Wilt thou give [me] a pledge, till thou send [it] ? GEN 38: 18 And he said, What pledge shall I give thee? And she said, Thy signet, and thy bracelets, and thy staff that [is] in thine hand. And he gave [it] her, and came in unto her, and she conceived by him. GEN 38: 19 And she arose, and went away, and laid by her veil from her, and put on the garments of her widowhood. GEN 38: 20 And Judah sent the kid by the hand of his friend the Adullamite, to receive [his] pledge from the woman's hand: but he found her not. GEN 38: 21 Then he asked the men of that place, saying, Where [is] the harlot, that [was] openly by the way side? And they said, There was no harlot in this [ place] . GEN 38: 22 And he returned to Judah, and said, I cannot find her; and also the men of the place said, [that] there was no harlot in this [place] . GEN 38: 23 And Judah said, Let her take [it] to her, lest we be shamed: behold, I sent this kid, and thou hast not found her. GEN 38: 24 And it came to pass about three months after, that it was told Judah, saying, Tamar thy daughter in law hath played the harlot; and also, behold, she [ is] with child by whoredom. And Judah said, Bring her forth, and let her be burnt. GEN 38: 25 When she [was] brought forth, she sent to her father in law, saying, By the man, whose these [are, am] I with child: and she said, Discern, I pray thee, whose [are] these, the signet, and bracelets, and staff. GEN 38: 26 And Judah acknowledged [them] , and said, She hath been more righteous than I; because that I gave her not to Shelah my son. And he knew her again no more. GEN 38: 27 And it came to pass in the time of her travail, that, behold, twins [ were] in her womb. GEN 38: 28 And it came to pass, when she travailed, that [the one] put out [his] hand: and the midwife took and bound upon his hand a scarlet thread, saying, This came out first. GEN 38: 29 And it came to pass, as he drew back his hand, that, behold, his brother came out: and she said, How hast thou broken forth? [this] breach [be] upon thee: therefore his name was called Pharez. GEN 38: 30 And afterward came out his brother, that had the scarlet thread upon his hand: and his name was called Zarah. GEN 39: 1 And Joseph was brought down to Egypt; and Potiphar, an officer of Pharaoh, captain of the guard, an Egyptian, bought him of the hands of the Ishmeelites, which had brought him down thither. GEN 39: 2 And the LORD was with Joseph, and he was a prosperous man; and he was in the house of his master the Egyptian. GEN 39: 3 And his master saw that the LORD [was] with him, and that the LORD made all that he did to prosper in his hand. GEN 39: 4 And Joseph found grace in his sight, and he served him: and he made him overseer over his house, and all [that] he had he put into his hand. GEN 39: 5 And it came to pass from the time [that] he had made him overseer in his house, and over all that he had, that the LORD blessed the Egyptian's house for Joseph's sake; and the blessing of the LORD was upon all that he had in the house, and in the field. GEN 39: 6 And he left all that he had in Joseph's hand; and he knew not ought he had, save the bread which he did eat. And Joseph was [a] goodly [person] , and well favoured. GEN 39: 7 And it came to pass after these things, that his master's wife cast her eyes upon Joseph; and she said, Lie with me. GEN 39: 8 But he refused, and said unto his master's wife, Behold, my master wotteth not what [is] with me in the house, and he hath committed all that he hath to my hand; GEN 39: 9 [There is] none greater in this house than I; neither hath he kept back any thing from me but thee, because thou [art] his wife: how then can I do this great wickedness, and sin against God? GEN 39: 10 And it came to pass, as she spake to Joseph day by day, that he hearkened not unto her, to lie by her, [or] to be with her. GEN 39: 11 And it came to pass about this time, that [Joseph] went into the house to do his business; and [there was] none of the men of the house there within. GEN 39: 12 And she caught him by his garment, saying, Lie with me: and he left his garment in her hand, and fled, and got him out. GEN 39: 13 And it came to pass, when she saw that he had left his garment in her hand, and was fled forth, GEN 39: 14 That she called unto the men of her house, and spake unto them, saying, See, he hath brought in an Hebrew unto us to mock us; he came in unto me to lie with me, and I cried with a loud voice: GEN 39: 15 And it came to pass, when he heard that I lifted up my voice and cried, that he left his garment with me, and fled, and got him out. GEN 39: 16 And she laid up his garment by her, until his lord came home. GEN 39: 17 And she spake unto him according to these words, saying, The Hebrew servant, which thou hast brought unto us, came in unto me to mock me: GEN 39: 18 And it came to pass, as I lifted up my voice and cried, that he left his garment with me, and fled out. GEN 39: 19 And it came to pass, when his master heard the words of his wife, which she spake unto him, saying, After this manner did thy servant to me; that his wrath was kindled. GEN 39: 20 And Joseph's master took him, and put him into the prison, a place where the king's prisoners [were] bound: and he was there in the prison. GEN 39: 21 But the LORD was with Joseph, and showed him mercy, and gave him favour in the sight of the keeper of the prison. GEN 39: 22 And the keeper of the prison committed to Joseph's hand all the prisoners that [were] in the prison; and whatsoever they did there, he was the doer [of it] . GEN 39: 23 The keeper of the prison looked not to any thing [that was] under his hand; because the LORD was with him, and [that] which he did, the LORD made [ it] to prosper. GEN 40: 1 And it came to pass after these things, [that] the butler of the king of Egypt and [his] baker had offended their lord the king of Egypt. GEN 40: 2 And Pharaoh was wroth against two [of] his officers, against the chief of the butlers, and against the chief of the bakers. GEN 40: 3 And he put them in ward in the house of the captain of the guard, into the prison, the place where Joseph [was] bound. GEN 40: 4 And the captain of the guard charged Joseph with them, and he served them: and they continued a season in ward. GEN 40: 5 And they dreamed a dream both of them, each man his dream in one night, each man according to the interpretation of his dream, the butler and the baker of the king of Egypt, which [were] bound in the prison. GEN 40: 6 And Joseph came in unto them in the morning, and looked upon them, and, behold, they [were] sad. GEN 40: 7 And he asked Pharaoh's officers that [were] with him in the ward of his lord's house, saying, Wherefore look ye [so] sadly to day? GEN 40: 8 And they said unto him, We have dreamed a dream, and [there is] no interpreter of it. And Joseph said unto them, [Do] not interpretations [belong] to God? tell me [them] , I pray you. GEN 40: 9 And the chief butler told his dream to Joseph, and said to him, In my dream, behold, a vine [was] before me; GEN 40: 10 And in the vine [were] three branches: and it [was] as though it budded, [and] her blossoms shot forth; and the clusters thereof brought forth ripe grapes: GEN 40: 11 And Pharaoh's cup [was] in my hand: and I took the grapes, and pressed them into Pharaoh's cup, and I gave the cup into Pharaoh's hand. GEN 40: 12 And Joseph said unto him, This [is] the interpretation of it: The three branches [are] three days: GEN 40: 13 Yet within three days shall Pharaoh lift up thine head, and restore thee unto thy place: and thou shalt deliver Pharaoh's cup into his hand, after the former manner when thou wast his butler. GEN 40: 14 But think on me when it shall be well with thee, and show kindness, I pray thee, unto me, and make mention of me unto Pharaoh, and bring me out of this house: GEN 40: 15 For indeed I was stolen away out of the land of the Hebrews: and here also have I done nothing that they should put me into the dungeon. GEN 40: 16 When the chief baker saw that the interpretation was good, he said unto Joseph, I also [was] in my dream, and, behold, [I had] three white baskets on my head: GEN 40: 17 And in the uppermost basket [there was] of all manner of bakemeats for Pharaoh; and the birds did eat them out of the basket upon my head. GEN 40: 18 And Joseph answered and said, This [is] the interpretation thereof: The three baskets [are] three days: GEN 40: 19 Yet within three days shall Pharaoh lift up thy head from off thee, and shall hang thee on a tree; and the birds shall eat thy flesh from off thee. GEN 40: 20 And it came to pass the third day, [which was] Pharaoh's birthday, that he made a feast unto all his servants: and he lifted up the head of the chief butler and of the chief baker among his servants. GEN 40: 21 And he restored the chief butler unto his butlership again; and he gave the cup into Pharaoh's hand: GEN 40: 22 But he hanged the chief baker: as Joseph had interpreted to them. GEN 40: 23 Yet did not the chief butler remember Joseph, but forgat him. GEN 41: 1 And it came to pass at the end of two full years, that Pharaoh dreamed: and, behold, he stood by the river. GEN 41: 2 And, behold, there came up out of the river seven well favoured kine and fatfleshed; and they fed in a meadow. GEN 41: 3 And, behold, seven other kine came up after them out of the river, ill favoured and leanfleshed; and stood by the [other] kine upon the brink of the river. GEN 41: 4 And the ill favoured and leanfleshed kine did eat up the seven well favoured and fat kine. So Pharaoh awoke. GEN 41: 5 And he slept and dreamed the second time: and, behold, seven ears of corn came up upon one stalk, rank and good. GEN 41: 6 And, behold, seven thin ears and blasted with the east wind sprung up after them. GEN 41: 7 And the seven thin ears devoured the seven rank and full ears. And Pharaoh awoke, and, behold, [it was] a dream. GEN 41: 8 And it came to pass in the morning that his spirit was troubled; and he sent and called for all the magicians of Egypt, and all the wise men thereof: and Pharaoh told them his dream; but [there was] none that could interpret them unto Pharaoh. GEN 41: 9 Then spake the chief butler unto Pharaoh, saying, I do remember my faults this day: GEN 41: 10 Pharaoh was wroth with his servants, and put me in ward in the captain of the guard's house, [both] me and the chief baker: GEN 41: 11 And we dreamed a dream in one night, I and he; we dreamed each man according to the interpretation of his dream. GEN 41: 12 And [there was] there with us a young man, an Hebrew, servant to the captain of the guard; and we told him, and he interpreted to us our dreams; to each man according to his dream he did interpret. GEN 41: 13 And it came to pass, as he interpreted to us, so it was; me he restored unto mine office, and him he hanged. GEN 41: 14 Then Pharaoh sent and called Joseph, and they brought him hastily out of the dungeon: and he shaved [himself] , and changed his raiment, and came in unto Pharaoh. GEN 41: 15 And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, I have dreamed a dream, and [there is] none that can interpret it: and I have heard say of thee, [that] thou canst understand a dream to interpret it. GEN 41: 16 And Joseph answered Pharaoh, saying, [It is] not in me: God shall give Pharaoh an answer of peace. GEN 41: 17 And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, In my dream, behold, I stood upon the bank of the river: GEN 41: 18 And, behold, there came up out of the river seven kine, fatfleshed and well favoured; and they fed in a meadow: GEN 41: 19 And, behold, seven other kine came up after them, poor and very ill favoured and leanfleshed, such as I never saw in all the land of Egypt for badness: GEN 41: 20 And the lean and the ill favoured kine did eat up the first seven fat kine: GEN 41: 21 And when they had eaten them up, it could not be known that they had eaten them; but they [were] still ill favoured, as at the beginning. So I awoke. GEN 41: 22 And I saw in my dream, and, behold, seven ears came up in one stalk, full and good: GEN 41: 23 And, behold, seven ears, withered, thin, [and] blasted with the east wind, sprung up after them: GEN 41: 24 And the thin ears devoured the seven good ears: and I told [this] unto the magicians; but [there was] none that could declare [it] to me. GEN 41: 25 And Joseph said unto Pharaoh, The dream of Pharaoh [is] one: God hath showed Pharaoh what he [is] about to do. GEN 41: 26 The seven good kine [are] seven years; and the seven good ears [are] seven years: the dream [is] one. GEN 41: 27 And the seven thin and ill favoured kine that came up after them [are] seven years; and the seven empty ears blasted with the east wind shall be seven years of famine. GEN 41: 28 This [is] the thing which I have spoken unto Pharaoh: What God [is] about to do he showeth unto Pharaoh. GEN 41: 29 Behold, there come seven years of great plenty throughout all the land of Egypt: GEN 41: 30 And there shall arise after them seven years of famine; and all the plenty shall be forgotten in the land of Egypt; and the famine shall consume the land; GEN 41: 31 And the plenty shall not be known in the land by reason of that famine following; for it [shall be] very grievous. GEN 41: 32 And for that the dream was doubled unto Pharaoh twice; [it is] because the thing [is] established by God, and God will shortly bring it to pass. GEN 41: 33 Now therefore let Pharaoh look out a man discreet and wise, and set him over the land of Egypt. GEN 41: 34 Let Pharaoh do [this] , and let him appoint officers over the land, and take up the fifth part of the land of Egypt in the seven plenteous years. GEN 41: 35 And let them gather all the food of those good years that come, and lay up corn under the hand of Pharaoh, and let them keep food in the cities. GEN 41: 36 And that food shall be for store to the land against the seven years of famine, which shall be in the land of Egypt; that the land perish not through the famine. GEN 41: 37 And the thing was good in the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of all his servants. GEN 41: 38 And Pharaoh said unto his servants, Can we find [such a one] as this [ is] , a man in whom the Spirit of God [is] ? GEN 41: 39 And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, Forasmuch as God hath showed thee all this, [there is] none so discreet and wise as thou [art] : GEN 41: 40 Thou shalt be over my house, and according unto thy word shall all my people be ruled: only in the throne will I be greater than thou. GEN 41: 41 And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, See, I have set thee over all the land of Egypt. GEN 41: 42 And Pharaoh took off his ring from his hand, and put it upon Joseph's hand, and arrayed him in vestures of fine linen, and put a gold chain about his neck; GEN 41: 43 And he made him to ride in the second chariot which he had; and they cried before him, Bow the knee: and he made him [ruler] over all the land of Egypt. GEN 41: 44 And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, I [am] Pharaoh, and without thee shall no man lift up his hand or foot in all the land of Egypt. GEN 41: 45 And Pharaoh called Joseph's name Zaphnathpaaneah; and he gave him to wife Asenath the daughter of Potipherah priest of On. And Joseph went out over [ all] the land of Egypt. GEN 41: 46 And Joseph [was] thirty years old when he stood before Pharaoh king of Egypt. And Joseph went out from the presence of Pharaoh, and went throughout all the land of Egypt. GEN 41: 47 And in the seven plenteous years the earth brought forth by handfuls. GEN 41: 48 And he gathered up all the food of the seven years, which were in the land of Egypt, and laid up the food in the cities: the food of the field, which [ was] round about every city, laid he up in the same. GEN 41: 49 And Joseph gathered corn as the sand of the sea, very much, until he left numbering; for [it was] without number. GEN 41: 50 And unto Joseph were born two sons before the years of famine came, which Asenath the daughter of Potipherah priest of On bare unto him. GEN 41: 51 And Joseph called the name of the firstborn Manasseh: For God, [said he] , hath made me forget all my toil, and all my father's house. GEN 41: 52 And the name of the second called he Ephraim: For God hath caused me to be fruitful in the land of my affliction. GEN 41: 53 And the seven years of plenteousness, that was in the land of Egypt, were ended. GEN 41: 54 And the seven years of dearth began to come, according as Joseph had said: and the dearth was in all lands; but in all the land of Egypt there was bread. GEN 41: 55 And when all the land of Egypt was famished, the people cried to Pharaoh for bread: and Pharaoh said unto all the Egyptians, Go unto Joseph; what he saith to you, do. GEN 41: 56 And the famine was over all the face of the earth: And Joseph opened all the storehouses, and sold unto the Egyptians; and the famine waxed sore in the land of Egypt. GEN 41: 57 And all countries came into Egypt to Joseph for to buy [corn] ; because that the famine was [so] sore in all lands. GEN 42: 1 Now when Jacob saw that there was corn in Egypt, Jacob said unto his sons, Why do ye look one upon another? GEN 42: 2 And he said, Behold, I have heard that there is corn in Egypt: get you down thither, and buy for us from thence; that we may live, and not die. GEN 42: 3 And Joseph's ten brethren went down to buy corn in Egypt. GEN 42: 4 But Benjamin, Joseph's brother, Jacob sent not with his brethren; for he said, Lest peradventure mischief befall him. GEN 42: 5 And the sons of Israel came to buy [corn] among those that came: for the famine was in the land of Canaan. GEN 42: 6 And Joseph [was] the governor over the land, [and] he [it was] that sold to all the people of the land: and Joseph's brethren came, and bowed down themselves before him [with] their faces to the earth. GEN 42: 7 And Joseph saw his brethren, and he knew them, but made himself strange unto them, and spake roughly unto them; and he said unto them, Whence come ye? And they said, From the land of Canaan to buy food. GEN 42: 8 And Joseph knew his brethren, but they knew not him. GEN 42: 9 And Joseph remembered the dreams which he dreamed of them, and said unto them, Ye [are] spies; to see the nakedness of the land ye are come. GEN 42: 10 And they said unto him, Nay, my lord, but to buy food are thy servants come. GEN 42: 11 We [are] all one man's sons; we [are] true [men] , thy servants are no spies. GEN 42: 12 And he said unto them, Nay, but to see the nakedness of the land ye are come. GEN 42: 13 And they said, Thy servants [are] twelve brethren, the sons of one man in the land of Canaan; and, behold, the youngest [is] this day with our father, and one [is] not. GEN 42: 14 And Joseph said unto them, That [is it] that I spake unto you, saying, Ye [are] spies: GEN 42: 15 Hereby ye shall be proved: By the life of Pharaoh ye shall not go forth hence, except your youngest brother come hither. GEN 42: 16 Send one of you, and let him fetch your brother, and ye shall be kept in prison, that your words may be proved, whether [there be any] truth in you: or else by the life of Pharaoh surely ye [are] spies. GEN 42: 17 And he put them all together into ward three days. GEN 42: 18 And Joseph said unto them the third day, This do, and live; [for] I fear God: GEN 42: 19 If ye [be] true [men] , let one of your brethren be bound in the house of your prison: go ye, carry corn for the famine of your houses: GEN 42: 20 But bring your youngest brother unto me; so shall your words be verified, and ye shall not die. And they did so. GEN 42: 21 And they said one to another, We [are] verily guilty concerning our brother, in that we saw the anguish of his soul, when he besought us, and we would not hear; therefore is this distress come upon us. GEN 42: 22 And Reuben answered them, saying, Spake I not unto you, saying, Do not sin against the child; and ye would not hear? therefore, behold, also his blood is required. GEN 42: 23 And they knew not that Joseph understood [them] ; for he spake unto them by an interpreter. GEN 42: 24 And he turned himself about from them, and wept; and returned to them again, and communed with them, and took from them Simeon, and bound him before their eyes. GEN 42: 25 Then Joseph commanded to fill their sacks with corn, and to restore every man's money into his sack, and to give them provision for the way: and thus did he unto them. GEN 42: 26 And they laded their asses with the corn, and departed thence. GEN 42: 27 And as one of them opened his sack to give his ass provender in the inn, he espied his money; for, behold, it [was] in his sack's mouth. GEN 42: 28 And he said unto his brethren, My money is restored; and, lo, [it is] even in my sack: and their heart failed [them] , and they were afraid, saying one to another, What [is] this [that] God hath done unto us? GEN 42: 29 And they came unto Jacob their father unto the land of Canaan, and told him all that befell unto them; saying, GEN 42: 30 The man, [who is] the lord of the land, spake roughly to us, and took us for spies of the country. GEN 42: 31 And we said unto him, We [are] true [men] ; we are no spies: GEN 42: 32 We [be] twelve brethren, sons of our father; one [is] not, and the youngest [is] this day with our father in the land of Canaan. GEN 42: 33 And the man, the lord of the country, said unto us, Hereby shall I know that ye [are] true [men] ; leave one of your brethren [here] with me, and take [ food for] the famine of your households, and be gone: GEN 42: 34 And bring your youngest brother unto me: then shall I know that ye [ are] no spies, but [that] ye [are] true [men: so] will I deliver you your brother, and ye shall traffic in the land. GEN 42: 35 And it came to pass as they emptied their sacks, that, behold, every man's bundle of money [was] in his sack: and when [both] they and their father saw the bundles of money, they were afraid. GEN 42: 36 And Jacob their father said unto them, Me have ye bereaved [of my children] : Joseph [is] not, and Simeon [is] not, and ye will take Benjamin [ away] : all these things are against me. GEN 42: 37 And Reuben spake unto his father, saying, Slay my two sons, if I bring him not to thee: deliver him into my hand, and I will bring him to thee again. GEN 42: 38 And he said, My son shall not go down with you; for his brother is dead, and he is left alone: if mischief befall him by the way in the which ye go, then shall ye bring down my gray hairs with sorrow to the grave. GEN 43: 1 And the famine [was] sore in the land. GEN 43: 2 And it came to pass, when they had eaten up the corn which they had brought out of Egypt, their father said unto them, Go again, buy us a little food. GEN 43: 3 And Judah spake unto him, saying, The man did solemnly protest unto us, saying, Ye shall not see my face, except your brother [be] with you. GEN 43: 4 If thou wilt send our brother with us, we will go down and buy thee food: GEN 43: 5 But if thou wilt not send [him] , we will not go down: for the man said unto us, Ye shall not see my face, except your brother [be] with you. GEN 43: 6 And Israel said, Wherefore dealt ye [so] ill with me, [as] to tell the man whether ye had yet a brother? GEN 43: 7 And they said, The man asked us straitly of our state, and of our kindred, saying, [Is] your father yet alive? have ye [another] brother? and we told him according to the tenor of these words: could we certainly know that he would say, Bring your brother down? GEN 43: 8 And Judah said unto Israel his father, Send the lad with me, and we will arise and go; that we may live, and not die, both we, and thou, [and] also our little ones. GEN 43: 9 I will be surety for him; of my hand shalt thou require him: if I bring him not unto thee, and set him before thee, then let me bear the blame for ever: GEN 43: 10 For except we had lingered, surely now we had returned this second time. GEN 43: 11 And their father Israel said unto them, If [it must be] so now, do this; take of the best fruits in the land in your vessels, and carry down the man a present, a little balm, and a little honey, spices, and myrrh, nuts, and almonds: GEN 43: 12 And take double money in your hand; and the money that was brought again in the mouth of your sacks, carry [it] again in your hand; peradventure it [was] an oversight: GEN 43: 13 Take also your brother, and arise, go again unto the man: GEN 43: 14 And God Almighty give you mercy before the man, that he may send away your other brother, and Benjamin. If I be bereaved [of my children] , I am bereaved. GEN 43: 15 And the men took that present, and they took double money in their hand, and Benjamin; and rose up, and went down to Egypt, and stood before Joseph. GEN 43: 16 And when Joseph saw Benjamin with them, he said to the ruler of his house, Bring [these] men home, and slay, and make ready; for [these] men shall dine with me at noon. GEN 43: 17 And the man did as Joseph bade; and the man brought the men into Joseph's house. GEN 43: 18 And the men were afraid, because they were brought into Joseph's house; and they said, Because of the money that was returned in our sacks at the first time are we brought in; that he may seek occasion against us, and fall upon us, and take us for bondmen, and our asses. GEN 43: 19 And they came near to the steward of Joseph's house, and they communed with him at the door of the house, GEN 43: 20 And said, O sir, we came indeed down at the first time to buy food: GEN 43: 21 And it came to pass, when we came to the inn, that we opened our sacks, and, behold, [every] man's money [was] in the mouth of his sack, our money in full weight: and we have brought it again in our hand. GEN 43: 22 And other money have we brought down in our hands to buy food: we cannot tell who put our money in our sacks. GEN 43: 23 And he said, Peace [be] to you, fear not: your God, and the God of your father, hath given you treasure in your sacks: I had your money. And he brought Simeon out unto them. GEN 43: 24 And the man brought the men into Joseph's house, and gave [them] water, and they washed their feet; and he gave their asses provender. GEN 43: 25 And they made ready the present against Joseph came at noon: for they heard that they should eat bread there. GEN 43: 26 And when Joseph came home, they brought him the present which [was] in their hand into the house, and bowed themselves to him to the earth. GEN 43: 27 And he asked them of [their] welfare, and said, [Is] your father well, the old man of whom ye spake? [Is] he yet alive? GEN 43: 28 And they answered, Thy servant our father [is] in good health, he [ is] yet alive. And they bowed down their heads, and made obeisance. GEN 43: 29 And he lifted up his eyes, and saw his brother Benjamin, his mother's son, and said, [Is] this your younger brother, of whom ye spake unto me? And he said, God be gracious unto thee, my son. GEN 43: 30 And Joseph made haste; for his bowels did yearn upon his brother: and he sought [where] to weep; and he entered into [his] chamber, and wept there. GEN 43: 31 And he washed his face, and went out, and refrained himself, and said, Set on bread. GEN 43: 32 And they set on for him by himself, and for them by themselves, and for the Egyptians, which did eat with him, by themselves: because the Egyptians might not eat bread with the Hebrews; for that [is] an abomination unto the Egyptians. GEN 43: 33 And they sat before him, the firstborn according to his birthright, and the youngest according to his youth: and the men marvelled one at another. GEN 43: 34 And he took [and sent] messes unto them from before him: but Benjamin's mess was five times so much as any of theirs. And they drank, and were merry with him. GEN 44: 1 And he commanded the steward of his house, saying, Fill the men's sacks [ with] food, as much as they can carry, and put every man's money in his sack's mouth. GEN 44: 2 And put my cup, the silver cup, in the sack's mouth of the youngest, and his corn money. And he did according to the word that Joseph had spoken. GEN 44: 3 As soon as the morning was light, the men were sent away, they and their asses. GEN 44: 4 [And] when they were gone out of the city, [and] not [yet] far off, Joseph said unto his steward, Up, follow after the men; and when thou dost overtake them, say unto them, Wherefore have ye rewarded evil for good? GEN 44: 5 [Is] not this [it] in which my lord drinketh, and whereby indeed he divineth? ye have done evil in so doing. GEN 44: 6 And he overtook them, and he spake unto them these same words. GEN 44: 7 And they said unto him, Wherefore saith my lord these words? God forbid that thy servants should do according to this thing: GEN 44: 8 Behold, the money, which we found in our sacks' mouths, we brought again unto thee out of the land of Canaan: how then should we steal out of thy lord's house silver or gold? GEN 44: 9 With whomsoever of thy servants it be found, both let him die, and we also will be my lord's bondmen. GEN 44: 10 And he said, Now also [let] it [be] according unto your words: he with whom it is found shall be my servant; and ye shall be blameless. GEN 44: 11 Then they speedily took down every man his sack to the ground, and opened every man his sack. GEN 44: 12 And he searched, [and] began at the eldest, and left at the youngest: and the cup was found in Benjamin's sack. GEN 44: 13 Then they rent their clothes, and laded every man his ass, and returned to the city. GEN 44: 14 And Judah and his brethren came to Joseph's house; for he [was] yet there: and they fell before him on the ground. GEN 44: 15 And Joseph said unto them, What deed [is] this that ye have done? wot ye not that such a man as I can certainly divine? GEN 44: 16 And Judah said, What shall we say unto my lord? what shall we speak? or how shall we clear ourselves? God hath found out the iniquity of thy servants: behold, we [are] my lord's servants, both we, and [he] also with whom the cup is found. GEN 44: 17 And he said, God forbid that I should do so: [but] the man in whose hand the cup is found, he shall be my servant; and as for you, get you up in peace unto your father. GEN 44: 18 Then Judah came near unto him, and said, Oh my lord, let thy servant, I pray thee, speak a word in my lord's ears, and let not thine anger burn against thy servant: for thou [art] even as Pharaoh. GEN 44: 19 My lord asked his servants, saying, Have ye a father, or a brother? GEN 44: 20 And we said unto my lord, We have a father, an old man, and a child of his old age, a little one; and his brother is dead, and he alone is left of his mother, and his father loveth him. GEN 44: 21 And thou saidst unto thy servants, Bring him down unto me, that I may set mine eyes upon him. GEN 44: 22 And we said unto my lord, The lad cannot leave his father: for [if] he should leave his father, [his father] would die. GEN 44: 23 And thou saidst unto thy servants, Except your youngest brother come down with you, ye shall see my face no more. GEN 44: 24 And it came to pass when we came up unto thy servant my father, we told him the words of my lord. GEN 44: 25 And our father said, Go again, [and] buy us a little food. GEN 44: 26 And we said, We cannot go down: if our youngest brother be with us, then will we go down: for we may not see the man's face, except our youngest brother [ be] with us. GEN 44: 27 And thy servant my father said unto us, Ye know that my wife bare me two [sons] : GEN 44: 28 And the one went out from me, and I said, Surely he is torn in pieces; and I saw him not since: GEN 44: 29 And if ye take this also from me, and mischief befall him, ye shall bring down my gray hairs with sorrow to the grave. GEN 44: 30 Now therefore when I come to thy servant my father, and the lad [be] not with us; seeing that his life is bound up in the lad's life; GEN 44: 31 It shall come to pass, when he seeth that the lad [is] not [with us] , that he will die: and thy servants shall bring down the gray hairs of thy servant our father with sorrow to the grave. GEN 44: 32 For thy servant became surety for the lad unto my father, saying, If I bring him not unto thee, then I shall bear the blame to my father for ever. GEN 44: 33 Now therefore, I pray thee, let thy servant abide instead of the lad a bondman to my lord; and let the lad go up with his brethren. GEN 44: 34 For how shall I go up to my father, and the lad [be] not with me? lest peradventure I see the evil that shall come on my father. GEN 45: 1 Then Joseph could not refrain himself before all them that stood by him; and he cried, Cause every man to go out from me. And there stood no man with him, while Joseph made himself known unto his brethren. GEN 45: 2 And he wept aloud: and the Egyptians and the house of Pharaoh heard. GEN 45: 3 And Joseph said unto his brethren, I [am] Joseph; doth my father yet live? And his brethren could not answer him; for they were troubled at his presence. GEN 45: 4 And Joseph said unto his brethren, Come near to me, I pray you. And they came near. And he said, I [am] Joseph your brother, whom ye sold into Egypt. GEN 45: 5 Now therefore be not grieved, nor angry with yourselves, that ye sold me hither: for God did send me before you to preserve life. GEN 45: 6 For these two years [hath] the famine [been] in the land: and yet [ there are] five years, in the which [there shall] neither [be] earing nor harvest. GEN 45: 7 And God sent me before you to preserve you a posterity in the earth, and to save your lives by a great deliverance. GEN 45: 8 So now [it was] not you [that] sent me hither, but God: and he hath made me a father to Pharaoh, and lord of all his house, and a ruler throughout all the land of Egypt. GEN 45: 9 Haste ye, and go up to my father, and say unto him, Thus saith thy son Joseph, God hath made me lord of all Egypt: come down unto me, tarry not: GEN 45: 10 And thou shalt dwell in the land of Goshen, and thou shalt be near unto me, thou, and thy children, and thy children's children, and thy flocks, and thy herds, and all that thou hast: GEN 45: 11 And there will I nourish thee; for yet [there are] five years of famine; lest thou, and thy household, and all that thou hast, come to poverty. GEN 45: 12 And, behold, your eyes see, and the eyes of my brother Benjamin, that [ it is] my mouth that speaketh unto you. GEN 45: 13 And ye shall tell my father of all my glory in Egypt, and of all that ye have seen; and ye shall haste and bring down my father hither. GEN 45: 14 And he fell upon his brother Benjamin's neck, and wept; and Benjamin wept upon his neck. GEN 45: 15 Moreover he kissed all his brethren, and wept upon them: and after that his brethren talked with him. GEN 45: 16 And the fame thereof was heard in Pharaoh's house, saying, Joseph's brethren are come: and it pleased Pharaoh well, and his servants. GEN 45: 17 And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, Say unto thy brethren, This do ye; lade your beasts, and go, get you unto the land of Canaan; GEN 45: 18 And take your father and your households, and come unto me: and I will give you the good of the land of Egypt, and ye shall eat the fat of the land. GEN 45: 19 Now thou art commanded, this do ye; take you wagons out of the land of Egypt for your little ones, and for your wives, and bring your father, and come. GEN 45: 20 Also regard not your stuff; for the good of all the land of Egypt [is] yours. GEN 45: 21 And the children of Israel did so: and Joseph gave them wagons, according to the commandment of Pharaoh, and gave them provision for the way. GEN 45: 22 To all of them he gave each man changes of raiment; but to Benjamin he gave three hundred [pieces] of silver, and five changes of raiment. GEN 45: 23 And to his father he sent after this [manner] ; ten asses laden with the good things of Egypt, and ten she asses laden with corn and bread and meat for his father by the way. GEN 45: 24 So he sent his brethren away, and they departed: and he said unto them, See that ye fall not out by the way. GEN 45: 25 And they went up out of Egypt, and came into the land of Canaan unto Jacob their father, GEN 45: 26 And told him, saying, Joseph [is] yet alive, and he [is] governor over all the land of Egypt. And Jacob's heart fainted, for he believed them not. GEN 45: 27 And they told him all the words of Joseph, which he had said unto them: and when he saw the wagons which Joseph had sent to carry him, the spirit of Jacob their father revived: GEN 45: 28 And Israel said, [It is] enough; Joseph my son [is] yet alive: I will go and see him before I die. GEN 46: 1 And Israel took his journey with all that he had, and came to Beersheba, and offered sacrifices unto the God of his father Isaac. GEN 46: 2 And God spake unto Israel in the visions of the night, and said, Jacob, Jacob. And he said, Here [am] I. GEN 46: 3 And he said, I [am] God, the God of thy father: fear not to go down into Egypt; for I will there make of thee a great nation: GEN 46: 4 I will go down with thee into Egypt; and I will also surely bring thee up [again] : and Joseph shall put his hand upon thine eyes. GEN 46: 5 And Jacob rose up from Beersheba: and the sons of Israel carried Jacob their father, and their little ones, and their wives, in the wagons which Pharaoh had sent to carry him. GEN 46: 6 And they took their cattle, and their goods, which they had gotten in the land of Canaan, and came into Egypt, Jacob, and all his seed with him: GEN 46: 7 His sons, and his sons' sons with him, his daughters, and his sons' daughters, and all his seed brought he with him into Egypt. GEN 46: 8 And these [are] the names of the children of Israel, which came into Egypt, Jacob and his sons: Reuben, Jacob's firstborn. GEN 46: 9 And the sons of Reuben; Hanoch, and Phallu, and Hezron, and Carmi. GEN 46: 10 And the sons of Simeon; Jemuel, and Jamin, and Ohad, and Jachin, and Zohar, and Shaul the son of a Canaanitish woman. GEN 46: 11 And the sons of Levi; Gershon, Kohath, and Merari. GEN 46: 12 And the sons of Judah; Er, and Onan, and Shelah, and Pharez, and Zarah: but Er and Onan died in the land of Canaan. And the sons of Pharez were Hezron and Hamul. GEN 46: 13 And the sons of Issachar; Tola, and Phuvah, and Job, and Shimron. GEN 46: 14 And the sons of Zebulun; Sered, and Elon, and Jahleel. GEN 46: 15 These [be] the sons of Leah, which she bare unto Jacob in Padanaram, with his daughter Dinah: all the souls of his sons and his daughters [were] thirty and three. GEN 46: 16 And the sons of Gad; Ziphion, and Haggi, Shuni, and Ezbon, Eri, and Arodi, and Areli. GEN 46: 17 And the sons of Asher; Jimnah, and Ishuah, and Isui, and Beriah, and Serah their sister: and the sons of Beriah; Heber, and Malchiel. GEN 46: 18 These [are] the sons of Zilpah, whom Laban gave to Leah his daughter, and these she bare unto Jacob, [even] sixteen souls. GEN 46: 19 The sons of Rachel Jacob's wife; Joseph, and Benjamin. GEN 46: 20 And unto Joseph in the land of Egypt were born Manasseh and Ephraim, which Asenath the daughter of Potipherah priest of On bare unto him. GEN 46: 21 And the sons of Benjamin [were] Belah, and Becher, and Ashbel, Gera, and Naaman, Ehi, and Rosh, Muppim, and Huppim, and Ard. GEN 46: 22 These [are] the sons of Rachel, which were born to Jacob: all the souls [ were] fourteen. GEN 46: 23 And the sons of Dan; Hushim. GEN 46: 24 And the sons of Naphtali; Jahzeel, and Guni, and Jezer, and Shillem. GEN 46: 25 These [are] the sons of Bilhah, which Laban gave unto Rachel his daughter, and she bare these unto Jacob: all the souls [were] seven. GEN 46: 26 All the souls that came with Jacob into Egypt, which came out of his loins, besides Jacob's sons' wives, all the souls [were] threescore and six; GEN 46: 27 And the sons of Joseph, which were born him in Egypt, [were] two souls: all the souls of the house of Jacob, which came into Egypt, [were] threescore and ten. GEN 46: 28 And he sent Judah before him unto Joseph, to direct his face unto Goshen; and they came into the land of Goshen. GEN 46: 29 And Joseph made ready his chariot, and went up to meet Israel his father, to Goshen, and presented himself unto him; and he fell on his neck, and wept on his neck a good while. GEN 46: 30 And Israel said unto Joseph, Now let me die, since I have seen thy face, because thou [art] yet alive. GEN 46: 31 And Joseph said unto his brethren, and unto his father's house, I will go up, and show Pharaoh, and say unto him, My brethren, and my father's house, which [were] in the land of Canaan, are come unto me; GEN 46: 32 And the men [are] shepherds, for their trade hath been to feed cattle; and they have brought their flocks, and their herds, and all that they have. GEN 46: 33 And it shall come to pass, when Pharaoh shall call you, and shall say, What [is] your occupation? GEN 46: 34 That ye shall say, Thy servants' trade hath been about cattle from our youth even until now, both we, [and] also our fathers: that ye may dwell in the land of Goshen; for every shepherd [is] an abomination unto the Egyptians. GEN 47: 1 Then Joseph came and told Pharaoh, and said, My father and my brethren, and their flocks, and their herds, and all that they have, are come out of the land of Canaan; and, behold, they [are] in the land of Goshen. GEN 47: 2 And he took some of his brethren, [even] five men, and presented them unto Pharaoh. GEN 47: 3 And Pharaoh said unto his brethren, What [is] your occupation? And they said unto Pharaoh, Thy servants [are] shepherds, both we, [and] also our fathers. GEN 47: 4 They said moreover unto Pharaoh, For to sojourn in the land are we come; for thy servants have no pasture for their flocks; for the famine [is] sore in the land of Canaan: now therefore, we pray thee, let thy servants dwell in the land of Goshen. GEN 47: 5 And Pharaoh spake unto Joseph, saying, Thy father and thy brethren are come unto thee: GEN 47: 6 The land of Egypt [is] before thee; in the best of the land make thy father and brethren to dwell; in the land of Goshen let them dwell: and if thou knowest [any] men of activity among them, then make them rulers over my cattle. GEN 47: 7 And Joseph brought in Jacob his father, and set him before Pharaoh: and Jacob blessed Pharaoh. GEN 47: 8 And Pharaoh said unto Jacob, How old [art] thou? GEN 47: 9 And Jacob said unto Pharaoh, The days of the years of my pilgrimage [ are] an hundred and thirty years: few and evil have the days of the years of my life been, and have not attained unto the days of the years of the life of my fathers in the days of their pilgrimage. GEN 47: 10 And Jacob blessed Pharaoh, and went out from before Pharaoh. GEN 47: 11 And Joseph placed his father and his brethren, and gave them a possession in the land of Egypt, in the best of the land, in the land of Rameses, as Pharaoh had commanded. GEN 47: 12 And Joseph nourished his father, and his brethren, and all his father's household, with bread, according to [their] families. GEN 47: 13 And [there was] no bread in all the land; for the famine [was] very sore, so that the land of Egypt and [all] the land of Canaan fainted by reason of the famine. GEN 47: 14 And Joseph gathered up all the money that was found in the land of Egypt, and in the land of Canaan, for the corn which they bought: and Joseph brought the money into Pharaoh's house. GEN 47: 15 And when money failed in the land of Egypt, and in the land of Canaan, all the Egyptians came unto Joseph, and said, Give us bread: for why should we die in thy presence? for the money faileth. GEN 47: 16 And Joseph said, Give your cattle; and I will give you for your cattle, if money fail. GEN 47: 17 And they brought their cattle unto Joseph: and Joseph gave them bread [ in exchange] for horses, and for the flocks, and for the cattle of the herds, and for the asses: and he fed them with bread for all their cattle for that year. GEN 47: 18 When that year was ended, they came unto him the second year, and said unto him, We will not hide [it] from my lord, how that our money is spent; my lord also hath our herds of cattle; there is not ought left in the sight of my lord, but our bodies, and our lands: GEN 47: 19 Wherefore shall we die before thine eyes, both we and our land? buy us and our land for bread, and we and our land will be servants unto Pharaoh: and give [us] seed, that we may live, and not die, that the land be not desolate. GEN 47: 20 And Joseph bought all the land of Egypt for Pharaoh; for the Egyptians sold every man his field, because the famine prevailed over them: so the land became Pharaoh's. GEN 47: 21 And as for the people, he removed them to cities from [one] end of the borders of Egypt even to the [other] end thereof. GEN 47: 22 Only the land of the priests bought he not; for the priests had a portion [assigned them] of Pharaoh, and did eat their portion which Pharaoh gave them: wherefore they sold not their lands. GEN 47: 23 Then Joseph said unto the people, Behold, I have bought you this day and your land for Pharaoh: lo, [here is] seed for you, and ye shall sow the land. GEN 47: 24 And it shall come to pass in the increase, that ye shall give the fifth [ part] unto Pharaoh, and four parts shall be your own, for seed of the field, and for your food, and for them of your households, and for food for your little ones. GEN 47: 25 And they said, Thou hast saved our lives: let us find grace in the sight of my lord, and we will be Pharaoh's servants. GEN 47: 26 And Joseph made it a law over the land of Egypt unto this day, [that] Pharaoh should have the fifth [part] ; except the land of the priests only, [ which] became not Pharaoh's. GEN 47: 27 And Israel dwelt in the land of Egypt, in the country of Goshen; and they had possessions therein, and grew, and multiplied exceedingly. GEN 47: 28 And Jacob lived in the land of Egypt seventeen years: so the whole age of Jacob was an hundred forty and seven years. GEN 47: 29 And the time drew nigh that Israel must die: and he called his son Joseph, and said unto him, If now I have found grace in thy sight, put, I pray thee, thy hand under my thigh, and deal kindly and truly with me; bury me not, I pray thee, in Egypt: GEN 47: 30 But I will lie with my fathers, and thou shalt carry me out of Egypt, and bury me in their buryingplace. And he said, I will do as thou hast said. GEN 47: 31 And he said, Swear unto me. And he sware unto him. And Israel bowed himself upon the bed's head. GEN 48: 1 And it came to pass after these things, that [one] told Joseph, Behold, thy father [is] sick: and he took with him his two sons, Manasseh and Ephraim. GEN 48: 2 And [one] told Jacob, and said, Behold, thy son Joseph cometh unto thee: and Israel strengthened himself, and sat upon the bed. GEN 48: 3 And Jacob said unto Joseph, God Almighty appeared unto me at Luz in the land of Canaan, and blessed me, GEN 48: 4 And said unto me, Behold, I will make thee fruitful, and multiply thee, and I will make of thee a multitude of people; and will give this land to thy seed after thee [for] an everlasting possession. GEN 48: 5 And now thy two sons, Ephraim and Manasseh, which were born unto thee in the land of Egypt before I came unto thee into Egypt, [are] mine; as Reuben and Simeon, they shall be mine. GEN 48: 6 And thy issue, which thou begettest after them, shall be thine, [and] shall be called after the name of their brethren in their inheritance. GEN 48: 7 And as for me, when I came from Padan, Rachel died by me in the land of Canaan in the way, when yet [there was] but a little way to come unto Ephrath: and I buried her there in the way of Ephrath; the same [is] Bethlehem. GEN 48: 8 And Israel beheld Joseph's sons, and said, Who [are] these? GEN 48: 9 And Joseph said unto his father, They [are] my sons, whom God hath given me in this [place] . And he said, Bring them, I pray thee, unto me, and I will bless them. GEN 48: 10 Now the eyes of Israel were dim for age, [so that] he could not see. And he brought them near unto him; and he kissed them, and embraced them. GEN 48: 11 And Israel said unto Joseph, I had not thought to see thy face: and, lo, God hath showed me also thy seed. GEN 48: 12 And Joseph brought them out from between his knees, and he bowed himself with his face to the earth. GEN 48: 13 And Joseph took them both, Ephraim in his right hand toward Israel's left hand, and Manasseh in his left hand toward Israel's right hand, and brought [ them] near unto him. GEN 48: 14 And Israel stretched out his right hand, and laid [it] upon Ephraim's head, who [was] the younger, and his left hand upon Manasseh's head, guiding his hands wittingly; for Manasseh [was] the firstborn. GEN 48: 15 And he blessed Joseph, and said, God, before whom my fathers Abraham and Isaac did walk, the God which fed me all my life long unto this day, GEN 48: 16 The Angel which redeemed me from all evil, bless the lads; and let my name be named on them, and the name of my fathers Abraham and Isaac; and let them grow into a multitude in the midst of the earth. GEN 48: 17 And when Joseph saw that his father laid his right hand upon the head of Ephraim, it displeased him: and he held up his father's hand, to remove it from Ephraim's head unto Manasseh's head. GEN 48: 18 And Joseph said unto his father, Not so, my father: for this [is] the firstborn; put thy right hand upon his head. GEN 48: 19 And his father refused, and said, I know [it] , my son, I know [it] : he also shall become a people, and he also shall be great: but truly his younger brother shall be greater than he, and his seed shall become a multitude of nations. GEN 48: 20 And he blessed them that day, saying, In thee shall Israel bless, saying, God make thee as Ephraim and as Manasseh: and he set Ephraim before Manasseh. GEN 48: 21 And Israel said unto Joseph, Behold, I die: but God shall be with you, and bring you again unto the land of your fathers. GEN 48: 22 Moreover I have given to thee one portion above thy brethren, which I took out of the hand of the Amorite with my sword and with my bow. GEN 49: 1 And Jacob called unto his sons, and said, Gather yourselves together, that I may tell you [that] which shall befall you in the last days. GEN 49: 2 Gather yourselves together, and hear, ye sons of Jacob; and hearken unto Israel your father. GEN 49: 3 Reuben, thou [art] my firstborn, my might, and the beginning of my strength, the excellency of dignity, and the excellency of power: GEN 49: 4 Unstable as water, thou shalt not excel; because thou wentest up to thy father's bed; then defiledst thou [it] : he went up to my couch. GEN 49: 5 Simeon and Levi [are] brethren; instruments of cruelty [are in] their habitations. GEN 49: 6 O my soul, come not thou into their secret; unto their assembly, mine honour, be not thou united: for in their anger they slew a man, and in their selfwill they digged down a wall. GEN 49: 7 Cursed [be] their anger, for [it was] fierce; and their wrath, for it was cruel: I will divide them in Jacob, and scatter them in Israel. GEN 49: 8 Judah, thou [art he] whom thy brethren shall praise: thy hand [shall be] in the neck of thine enemies; thy father's children shall bow down before thee. GEN 49: 9 Judah [is] a lion's whelp: from the prey, my son, thou art gone up: he stooped down, he couched as a lion, and as an old lion; who shall rouse him up? GEN 49: 10 The sceptre shall not depart from Judah, nor a lawgiver from between his feet, until Shiloh come; and unto him [shall] the gathering of the people [ be] . GEN 49: 11 Binding his foal unto the vine, and his ass's colt unto the choice vine; he washed his garments in wine, and his clothes in the blood of grapes: GEN 49: 12 His eyes [shall be] red with wine, and his teeth white with milk. GEN 49: 13 Zebulun shall dwell at the haven of the sea; and he [shall be] for an haven of ships; and his border [shall be] unto Zidon. GEN 49: 14 Issachar [is] a strong ass couching down between two burdens: GEN 49: 15 And he saw that rest [was] good, and the land that [it was] pleasant; and bowed his shoulder to bear, and became a servant unto tribute. GEN 49: 16 Dan shall judge his people, as one of the tribes of Israel. GEN 49: 17 Dan shall be a serpent by the way, an adder in the path, that biteth the horse heels, so that his rider shall fall backward. GEN 49: 18 I have waited for thy salvation, O LORD. GEN 49: 19 Gad, a troop shall overcome him: but he shall overcome at the last. GEN 49: 20 Out of Asher his bread [shall be] fat, and he shall yield royal dainties. GEN 49: 21 Naphtali [is] a hind let loose: he giveth goodly words. GEN 49: 22 Joseph [is] a fruitful bough, [even] a fruitful bough by a well; [ whose] branches run over the wall: GEN 49: 23 The archers have sorely grieved him, and shot [at him] , and hated him: GEN 49: 24 But his bow abode in strength, and the arms of his hands were made strong by the hands of the mighty [God] of Jacob; ( from thence [is] the shepherd, the stone of Israel: ) GEN 49: 25 [Even] by the God of thy father, who shall help thee; and by the Almighty, who shall bless thee with blessings of heaven above, blessings of the deep that lieth under, blessings of the breasts, and of the womb: GEN 49: 26 The blessings of thy father have prevailed above the blessings of my progenitors unto the utmost bound of the everlasting hills: they shall be on the head of Joseph, and on the crown of the head of him that was separate from his brethren. GEN 49: 27 Benjamin shall ravin [as] a wolf: in the morning he shall devour the prey, and at night he shall divide the spoil. GEN 49: 28 All these [are] the twelve tribes of Israel: and this [is it] that their father spake unto them, and blessed them; every one according to his blessing he blessed them. GEN 49: 29 And he charged them, and said unto them, I am to be gathered unto my people: bury me with my fathers in the cave that [is] in the field of Ephron the Hittite, GEN 49: 30 In the cave that [is] in the field of Machpelah, which [is] before Mamre, in the land of Canaan, which Abraham bought with the field of Ephron the Hittite for a possession of a buryingplace. GEN 49: 31 There they buried Abraham and Sarah his wife; there they buried Isaac and Rebekah his wife; and there I buried Leah. GEN 49: 32 The purchase of the field and of the cave that [is] therein [was] from the children of Heth. GEN 49: 33 And when Jacob had made an end of commanding his sons, he gathered up his feet into the bed, and yielded up the ghost, and was gathered unto his people. GEN 50: 1 And Joseph fell upon his father's face, and wept upon him, and kissed him. GEN 50: 2 And Joseph commanded his servants the physicians to embalm his father: and the physicians embalmed Israel. GEN 50: 3 And forty days were fulfilled for him; for so are fulfilled the days of those which are embalmed: and the Egyptians mourned for him threescore and ten days. GEN 50: 4 And when the days of his mourning were past, Joseph spake unto the house of Pharaoh, saying, If now I have found grace in your eyes, speak, I pray you, in the ears of Pharaoh, saying, GEN 50: 5 My father made me swear, saying, Lo, I die: in my grave which I have digged for me in the land of Canaan, there shalt thou bury me. Now therefore let me go up, I pray thee, and bury my father, and I will come again. GEN 50: 6 And Pharaoh said, Go up, and bury thy father, according as he made thee swear. GEN 50: 7 And Joseph went up to bury his father: and with him went up all the servants of Pharaoh, the elders of his house, and all the elders of the land of Egypt, GEN 50: 8 And all the house of Joseph, and his brethren, and his father's house: only their little ones, and their flocks, and their herds, they left in the land of Goshen. GEN 50: 9 And there went up with him both chariots and horsemen: and it was a very great company. GEN 50: 10 And they came to the threshingfloor of Atad, which [is] beyond Jordan, and there they mourned with a great and very sore lamentation: and he made a mourning for his father seven days. GEN 50: 11 And when the inhabitants of the land, the Canaanites, saw the mourning in the floor of Atad, they said, This [is] a grievous mourning to the Egyptians: wherefore the name of it was called Abelmizraim, which [is] beyond Jordan. GEN 50: 12 And his sons did unto him according as he commanded them: GEN 50: 13 For his sons carried him into the land of Canaan, and buried him in the cave of the field of Machpelah, which Abraham bought with the field for a possession of a buryingplace of Ephron the Hittite, before Mamre. GEN 50: 14 And Joseph returned into Egypt, he, and his brethren, and all that went up with him to bury his father, after he had buried his father. GEN 50: 15 And when Joseph's brethren saw that their father was dead, they said, Joseph will peradventure hate us, and will certainly requite us all the evil which we did unto him. GEN 50: 16 And they sent a messenger unto Joseph, saying, Thy father did command before he died, saying, GEN 50: 17 So shall ye say unto Joseph, Forgive, I pray thee now, the trespass of thy brethren, and their sin; for they did unto thee evil: and now, we pray thee, forgive the trespass of the servants of the God of thy father. And Joseph wept when they spake unto him. GEN 50: 18 And his brethren also went and fell down before his face; and they said, Behold, we [be] thy servants. GEN 50: 19 And Joseph said unto them, Fear not: for [am] I in the place of God? GEN 50: 20 But as for you, ye thought evil against me; [but] God meant it unto good, to bring to pass, as [it is] this day, to save much people alive. GEN 50: 21 Now therefore fear ye not: I will nourish you, and your little ones. And he comforted them, and spake kindly unto them. GEN 50: 22 And Joseph dwelt in Egypt, he, and his father's house: and Joseph lived an hundred and ten years. GEN 50: 23 And Joseph saw Ephraim's children of the third [generation] : the children also of Machir the son of Manasseh were brought up upon Joseph's knees. GEN 50: 24 And Joseph said unto his brethren, I die: and God will surely visit you, and bring you out of this land unto the land which he sware to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob. GEN 50: 25 And Joseph took an oath of the children of Israel, saying, God will surely visit you, and ye shall carry up my bones from hence. GEN 50: 26 So Joseph died, [being] an hundred and ten years old: and they embalmed him, and he was put in a coffin in Egypt.
