And the silver was spent out of the land of Egypt and out of the land of Canaan, so all the Egyptians came in unto Joseph, sayingDo give us bread, for why should we die before thee, although, silver, hath failed? 
Then said Joseph: Give your cattle, and I will give you for your cattle,if silver hath failed. 
So they brought in their cattle unto Joseph, and Joseph gave them bread in exchange for the horses and for the cattle of the flock and for the cattle of the herd, and for the asses,and he provided them with bread for all their cattle, throughout that year. 
When that year was ended, then came they unto him in the second year and said to himWe will not hide from my lord, how that the silver and the herds of beasts for my lord are come to an end,there is nothing left before my lord, save only our bodies and our ground: 
Wherefore should we die before thine eyes both we, and our ground? Buy thou us and our ground, for bread,and we and our ground will become servants to Pharaoh, and give seed, that we may live, and not die, and the ground, not lie waste. 
So Joseph bought all the ground of the Egyptians for Pharaoh, for the Egyptians sold every man his field, because the famine had laid fast hold upon them,so the land became Pharaohs.

And Joseph said unto the people, Lo! I have bought you this day, and your ground for Pharaoh,see, here is seed for you, so shall ye sow the ground; 
and it shall come to pass that, of the yield, ye shall give a fifth to Pharaoh,but the four parts, shall be your ownfor seed for the field, and for your food and for them who are in your households and for food for your little ones. 
And they saidThou hast saved our lives! let us find favour in the eyes of my lord, so will we become Pharaohs servants. 
And Joseph appointed it for a statuteuntil this day, regarding the ground of Egypt, that Pharaoh, should take a fifth,only, the ground of the priests, was, theirs alone, it had not become Pharaohs.

And the days of Israel drew near that he must die, so he called for his son for Joseph and said to himIf, I pray thee I have found favour in thine eyes, place, I pray thee thy hand under my thigh,so shalt thou deal with me in lovingkindness and faithfulnessDo not I pray thee, bury me in Egypt. 
When I shall lie down with my fathers, then shalt thou carry me out of Egypt, and bury me in their buryingplace. And he said: I, will do according to thy word. 
Then he said: Come, swear to me! And he sware to him. Then did Israel how himself down on the head of the couch.
