And they said to 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 Chanaan; now then, we will dwell in the land of Gesem. And Pharao said to Joseph, Let them dwell in the land of 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 Egypt, to Joseph; and Pharao, king of Egypt, heard [of it].
Greek · SeptuagintΕἶπαν δὲ τῷ Φαραῷ, παροικεῖν ἐν τῇ γῇ ἥκαμεν, οὐ γάρ ἐστι νομὴ τοῖς κτήνεσι τῶν παιδων σου, ἐνίσχυσε γὰρ ὁ λιμὸς ἐν γῇ Χανάαν· νῦν οὖν κατοικήσομεν ἐν γῇ Γεσέμ. Εἶπε δὲ Φαραὼ τῷ Ἰωσὴφ, Κατοικείτωσαν ἐν γῇ Γεσέμ· εἰ δὲ ἐπίστῃ, ὅτι εἰσὶν ἐν αὐτοῖς ἄνδρες δυνατοὶ, κατάστησον αὐτοὺς ἄρχοντας τῶν ἐμῶν κτηνῶν. Ἦλθον δὲ εἰς Αἴγυπτον πρὸς Ἰωσὴφ Ἰακὼβ, καὶ οἱ υἱοὶ αὐτοῦ· καὶ ἤκουσε Φαραὼ βασιλεὺς Αἰγύπτου.
And Pharao spoke to Joseph, saying, Thy father, and thy brethren, are come to thee.

Behold, the land of Egypt is before thee; settle thy father and thy brethren in the best land.

And Pharao said to Jacob, How many are the years of the days of thy life?
Greek · SeptuagintΕἶπε δὲ Φαραὼ τῷ Ἰακὼβ, πόσα ἔτη ἡμερῶν τῆς ζωῆς σου;
And Jacob said to Pharao, The days of the years of my life, wherein I sojourn, are a hundred and thirty years; few and evil have been the days of the years of my life, they have not attained to the days of the life of my fathers, in which days they sojourned.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ εἶπεν Ἰακὼβ τῷ Φαραῷ, αἱ ἡμέραι τῶν ἐτῶν τῆς ζωῆς μου, ἃς παροικῶ, ἑκατὸν τριάκοντα ἔτη· μικραὶ καὶ πονηραὶ γεγόνασιν αἱ ἡμέραι τῶν ἐτῶν τῆς ζωῆς μου· οὐκ ἀφίκοντο εἰς τὰς ἡμέρας τῶν ἐτῶν τῆς ζῶης τῶν πατέρων μου, ἃς ἡμέρας παρῴκησαν.
And Jacob blessed Pharao, and departed from him.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ εὐλογήσας Ἰακὼβ τὸν Φαραὼ, ἐξῆλθεν ἀπʼ αὐτοῦ.
And Joseph settled his father and his brethren, and gave them a possession in the land of Egypt, in the best land, in the land of Ramesses, as Pharao commanded.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ κατῴκισεν Ἰωσὴφ τὸν πατέρα αὐτοῦ, καὶ τοὺς ἀδελφοὺς αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτοῖς κατάσχεσιν ἐν γῇ Αἰγύπτῳ, ἐν τῇ βελτίστῃ γῇ, ἐν γῇ Ῥαμεσσῆ, καθὰ προσέταξε Φαραώ.
And Joseph gave provision to his father, and his brethren, and to all the house of his father, corn for each person.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ ἐσιτομέτρει Ἰωσὴφ τῷ πατρὶ αὐτοῦ, καὶ τοῖς ἀδελφοῖς, καὶ παντὶ τῷ οἴκῳ τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ, σῖτον κατὰ σῶμα.
And there was no corn in all the land, for the famine prevailed greatly; and the land of Egypt, and the land of Chanaan, fainted for the famine.
Greek · SeptuagintΣῖτος δὲ οὐκ ἦν ἐν πάσῃ τῇ γῇ, ἐνίσχυσε γὰρ ὁ λιμὸς σφόδρα· ἐξέλιπε δὲ ἡ γῆ Αἰγύπτου καὶ ἡ γῆ Χαναὰν ἀπὸ τοῦ λιμοῦ.
And Joseph gathered all the money that was found in the land of Egypt, and the land of Chanaan, [in return for] the corn which they bought, and he distributed corn to them; and Joseph brought all the money into the house of Pharao.
Greek · SeptuagintΣυνήγαγε δὲ Ἰωσὴφ πᾶν τὸ ἀργύριον τὸ εὑρεθὲν ἐν γῇ Αἰγύπτου καὶ ἐν γῇ Χαναὰν, τοῦ σίτου, οὗ ἠγόραζον, καὶ ἐσιτομέτρει αὐτοῖς, καὶ εἰσήνεγκεν Ἰωσὴφ πᾶν τὸ ἀργύριον εἰς τὸν οἶκον Φαραώ.
And all the money failed out of the land of Egypt, and out of the land of Chanaan; and all the Egyptians came to Joseph, saying, Give us bread, and why do we die in thy presence? for our money is spent.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ ἐξέλιπε πᾶν τὸ ἀργύριον ἐκ γῆς Αἰγύπτου καὶ ἐκ γῆς Χαναάν· ἦλθον δὲ πάντες οἱ Αἰγύπτιοι πρὸς Ἰωσὴφ, λέγοντες, δὸς ἡμῖν ἄρτους, καὶ ἱνατί ἀποθνήσκομεν ἐναντίον σου; ἐκλέλοιπε γὰρ τὸ ἀργύριον ἡμῶν.
And Joseph said to them, Bring your cattle, and I will give you bread for your cattle, if your money is spent.
Greek · SeptuagintΕἶπε δὲ αὐτοῖς Ἰωσὴφ, φέρετε τὰ κτήνη ὑμῶν, καὶ δώσω ὑμῖν ἄρτους, ἀντὶ τῶν κτηνῶν ὑμῶν, εἰ ἐκλέλοιπε τὸ ἀργύριον ὑμῶν.
And they brought their cattle to Joseph; and Joseph gave them bread in return for their horses, and for their sheep, and for their oxen, and for their asses; and Joseph maintained them with bread for all their cattle in that year.
Greek · SeptuagintἬγαγον δὲ τὰ κτήνη αὐτῶν πρὸς Ἰωσήφ· καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτοῖς Ἰωσὴφ ἄρτους ἀντὶ τῶν ἵππων, καὶ ἀντὶ τῶν προβάτων, καὶ ἀντὶ τῶν βοῶν, καὶ ἀντὶ τῶν ὄνων· καὶ ἐξέθρεψεν αὐτοὺς ἐν ἄρτοις ἀντὶ πάντων τῶν κτηνῶν αὐτῶν ἐν τῷ ἐνιαυτῷ ἐκείνῳ.
And that year passed, and they came to him in the second year, and said to him, Must we then be consumed from before our lord? for if our money has failed, and our possessions, and our cattle, [brought] to thee our lord, and there has not been left to us before our lord more than our own bodies and our land, [we are indeed destitute].
Greek · SeptuagintἘξῆλθε δὲ τὸ ἔτος ἐκεῖνο, καὶ ἦλθον πρὸς αὐτὸν ἐν τῷ ἔτει τῷ δευτέρῳ, καὶ εἶπαν αὐτῷ, μή ποτε ἐκτριβῶμεν ἀπὸ τοῦ κυρίου ἡμῶν; εἰ γὰρ ἐκλέλοιπε τὸ ἀργύριον ἡμῶν, καὶ τὰ ὑπάρχοντα καὶ τὰ κτήνη πρός σε τὸν κύριον, καὶ οὐχ ὑπολέλειπται ἡμῖν ἐναντίον τοῦ κυρίου ἡμῶν, ἀλλʼ ἢ τὸ ἴδιον σῶμα καὶ ἡ γῆ ἡμῶν,
In order, then, that we die not before thee, and the land be made desolate, buy us and our land for bread, and we and our land will be servants to Pharao: give seed that we may sow, and live and not die, so our land shall not be made desolate.
Greek · Septuagintἵνα οὖν μὴ ἀποθάνωμεν ἐναντίον σου, καὶ ἡ γῆ ἐρημωθῇ, κτῆσαι ἡμᾶς καὶ τὴν γῆν ἡμῶν ἀντὶ ἄρτων, καὶ ἐσόμεθα ἡμεῖς καὶ ἡ γῆ ἡμῶν παῖδες τῷ Φαραώ· δὸς σπέρμα, ἵνα σπείρωμεν, καὶ ζῶμεν καὶ μὴ ἀποθάνωμεν, καὶ ἡ γῆ οὐκ ἐρημωθήσεται.
And Joseph bought all the land of the Egyptians, for Pharao; for the Egyptians sold their land to Pharao; for the famine prevailed against them, and the land became Pharao's.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ ἐκτήσατο Ἰωσὴφ πᾶσαν τὴν γῆν τῶν Αἰγυπτίων τῷ Φαραώ· ἀπέδοντο γὰρ οἱ Αἰγύπτιοι τὴν γῆν αὐτῶν τῷ Φαραώ· ἐπεκράτησε γὰρ αὐτῶν ὁ λιμός· καὶ ἐγένετο ἡ γῆ τῷ Φαραώ.
And he brought the people into bondage to him, for servants, from one extremity of Egypt to the other,
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ τὸν λαὸν κατεδουλώσατο αὐτῷ εἰς παῖδας, ἀπʼ ἄκρων ὁρίων Αἰγύπτου ἕως τῶν ἄκρων,
except only the land of the priests; Joseph bought not this, for Pharao gave a portion in the way of gift to the priests; and they ate their portion which Pharao gave them; therefore they sold not their land.
Greek · Septuagintχωρὶς τῆς γῆς τῶν ἱερέων μόνον· οὐκ ἐκτήσατο ταύτην Ἰωσήφ· ἐν δόσει γὰρ ἔδωκε δόμα τοῖς ἱερεῦσι Φαραὼ, καὶ ἤσθιον τὴν δόσιν, ἣν ἔδωκεν αὐτοῖς Φαραώ· διὰ τοῦτο οὐκ ἀπέδοντο τὴν γῆν αὐτῶν.
And Joseph said to all the Egyptians, Behold, I have bought you and your land this day for Pharao; take seed for you, and sow the land.
Greek · SeptuagintΕἶπε δὲ Ἰωσὴφ πᾶσι τοῖς Αἰγυπτίοις, ἰδοὺ κέκτημαι ὑμᾶς καὶ τὴν γῆν ὑμῶν σήμερον τῷ Φαραῷ· λάβετε ἑαυτοῖς σπέρμα, καὶ σπείρατε τὴν γῆν.
And there shall be the fruits of it; and ye shall give the fifth part to Pharao, and the four [remaining] parts shall be for yourselves, for seed for the earth, and for food for you, and all that are in your houses.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ ἔσται τὰ γεννήματα αὐτῆς· καὶ δώσετε τὸ πεμπτὸν μέρος τῷ Φαραώ· τὰ δὲ τέσσαρα μέρη ἔσται ὑμῖν αὐτοῖς εἰς σπέρμα τῇ γῇ, καὶ εἰς βρῶσιν ὑμῖν, καὶ πᾶσι τοῖς ἐν τοῖς οἴκοις ὑμῶν.
And they said, Thou hast saved us; we have found favour before our lord, and we will be servants to Pharao.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ εἶπαν, σέσωκας ἡμᾶς· εὕρομεν χάριν ἐναντίον τοῦ κυρίου ἡμῶν, καὶ ἐσόμεθα παῖδες τῷ Φαραώ.
And Joseph appointed it to them for an ordinance until this day; to reserve a fifth part for Pharao, on the land of Egypt, except only the land of the priests, that was not Pharao's.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ ἔθετο αὐτοῖς Ἰωσὴφ εἰς πρόσταγμα ἕως τῆς ἡμέρας ταύτης, ἐπὶ γῆς Αἰγύπτου τῷ Φαραὼ ἀποπεμπτοῦν, χωρὶς τῆς γῆς τῶν ἱερέων μόνον· οὐκ ἧν τῷ Φαραώ.
And Israel dwelt in Egypt, in the land of Gesem, and they gained an inheritance upon it; and they increased and multiplied very greatly.
Greek · SeptuagintΚατῶκησε δὲ Ἰσραὴλ ἐν γῇ Αἰγύπτῳ ἐπὶ γῆς Γεσὲμ, καὶ ἐκληρονόμησαν ἐπʼ αὐτῆς· καὶ ηὐξήθησαν καὶ ἐπληθύνθησαν σφόδρα.
And Jacob survived seventeen years in the land of Egypt; and Jacob's days of the years of his life were a hundred and forty-seven years.
Greek · SeptuagintἘπέζησε δὲ Ἰακὼβ ἐν γῇ Αἰγύπτῳ δεκαεπτὰ ἔτη· καὶ ἐγένοντο αἱ ἡμέραι Ἰακὼβ ἐνιαυτῶν τῆς ζωῆς αὐτοῦ ἑκατὸν τεσσαρακονταεπτὰ ἔτη.
And the days of Israel drew nigh for him to die: and he called his son Joseph, and said to him, If I have found favour before thee, put thy hand under my thigh, and thou shalt execute mercy and truth toward me, so as not to bury me in Egypt.
Greek · SeptuagintἬγγισαν δὲ αἱ ἡμέραι Ἰσραὴλ τοῦ ἀποθανεῖν· καὶ ἐκάλεσε τὸν υἱὸν αὐτοῦ Ἰωσὴφ, καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ, εἰ εὕρηκα χάριν ἐναντίον σου, ὑπόθες τὴν χεῖρά σου ὑπὸ τὸν μηρόν μου, καὶ ποιήσεις ἐπʼ ἐμὲ ἐλεημοσύνην, καὶ ἀλήθειαν, τοῦ μή με θάψαι ἐν Αἰγύπτῳ·
But I will sleep with my fathers, and thou shalt carry me up out of Egypt, and bury me in their sepulchre. And he said, I will do according to thy word.
Greek · SeptuagintἈλλὰ κοιμηθήσομαι μετὰ τῶν πατέρων μου· καὶ ἀρεῖς με ἐξ Αἰγύπτου, καὶ θάψεις με ἐν τῷ τάφῳ αὐτῶν· ὁ δὲ εἶπεν, ἐγὼ ποιήσω κατὰ τὸ ῥῆμά σου.
And he said, Swear to me; and he swore to him. And Israel did reverence, leaning on the top of his staff.
Greek · SeptuagintΕἶπε δὲ, ὄμοσόν μοι· καὶ ὤμοσεν αὐτῷ· καὶ προσεκύνησεν Ἰσραὴλ ἐπὶ τὸ ἄκρον τῆς ῥάβδου αὐτοῦ.
And it came to pass after these things, that it was reported to Joseph, Behold, thy father is ill; and, having taken his two sons, Manasse and Ephraim, he came to Jacob.
Greek · SeptuagintἘγένετο δὲ μετὰ τὰ ῥήματα ταῦτα, καὶ ἀπηγγέλη τῷ Ἰωσὴφ, ὅτι ὁ πατήρ σου ἐνοχλεῖται· καὶ ἀναλαβὼν τοὺς δύο υἱοὺς αὐτοῦ τὸν Μανασσῆ καὶ τὸν Ἐφραὶμ, ἦλθε πρὸς Ἰακώβ.
And it was reported to Jacob, saying, Behold, thy son Joseph cometh to thee; and Israel having strengthened himself, sat upon the bed.
Greek · SeptuagintἈπηγγέλη δὲ τῷ Ἰακὼβ, λέγοντες, ἰδοὺ ὁ υἱός σου Ἰωσὴφ ἔρχεται πρὸς σέ· καὶ ἐνισχύσας Ἰσραὴλ ἐκάθισεν ἐπὶ τὴν κλίνην.
And Jacob said to Joseph, My God appeared to me in Luza, in the land of Chanaan, and blessed me,
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ εἶπεν Ἰακὼβ τῷ Ἰωσὴφ, ὁ Θεός μου ὤφθη μοι ἐν Λουζᾷ ἐν γῇ Χαναὰν, καὶ εὐλόγησέ με,
and said to me, Behold, I will increase thee, and multiply thee, and will make of thee multitudes of nations; and I will give this land to thee, and to thy seed after thee, for an everlasting possession.
Greek · Septuagintκαὶ εἶπέ μοι, ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ αὐξανῶ σε, καὶ πληθυνῶ σε, καὶ ποιήσω σε εἰς συναγωγὰς ἐθνῶν· καὶ δώσω σοι τὴν γῆν ταύτην, καὶ τῷ σπέρματί σου μετὰ σὲ, εἰς κατάσχεσιν αἰώνιον.
Now then thy two sons, who were born to thee in the land of Egypt, before I came to thee into Egypt, are mine; Ephraim and Manasse, as Ruben and Symeon they shall be mine.
Greek · SeptuagintΝῦν οὖν οἱ δύο υἱοί σου, οἱ γενόμενοί σοι ἐν γῇ Αἰγύπτῳ πρὸ τοῦ με ἐλθεῖν πρός σε εἰς Αἴγυπτον, ἐμοί εἰσιν, Ἐφραὶμ καὶ Μανασσῆ· ὡς Ῥουβὴν καὶ Συμεὼν ἔσονταί μοι.
And the children which thou shalt beget hereafter, shall be in the name of their brethren; they shall be named after their inheritances.
Greek · SeptuagintΤὰ δὲ ἔκγονα, ἃ ἐὰν γεννήσῃς μετὰ ταῦτα, ἔσονται ἐπὶ τῷ ὀνόματι τῶν ἀδελφῶν αὐτῶν· κληθήσονται ἐπὶ τοῖς ἐκείνων κλήροις.
And as for me, when I came out of Mesopotamia of Syria, Rachel, thy mother, died in the land of Chanaan, as I drew nigh to the horse-course of Chabratha of the land [of Chanaan], so as to come to Ephratha; and I buried her in the road of the course; this is Bethlehem.
Greek · SeptuagintἘγὼ δὲ ἡνίκα ἠρχόμην ἐκ Μεσοποταμίας τῆς Συρίας, ἀπέθανε Ῥαχὴλ ἡ μήτηρ σου ἐν γῇ Χαναὰν, ἐγγίζοντός μου κατὰ τὸν ἱππόδρομον Χαβραθὰ τῆς γῆς, τοῦ ἐλθεῖν Ἐφραθά· καὶ κατώρυξα αὐτὴν ἐν τῇ ὁδῷ τοῦ ἱπποδρόμου· αὕτη ἐστὶ Βηθλεέμ.
And when Israel saw the sons of Joseph, he said, Who are these to thee?
Greek · SeptuagintἸδὼν δὲ Ἰσραὴλ τοὺς υἱοὺς Ἰωσὴφ, εἶπε, τίνες σοι οὗτοι;
And Joseph said to his father, They are my sons, whom God gave me here; and Jacob said, Bring me them, that I may bless them.
Greek · SeptuagintΕἶπε δὲ Ἰωσὴφ τῷ πατρὶ αὐτοῦ, υἱοί μου εἰσὶν, οὓς ἔδωκε μοι ὁ Θεὸς ἐνταῦθα. Καὶ εἶπεν Ἰακὼβ, προσάγαγέ μοι αὐτοὺς, ἵνα εὐλογήσω αὐτούς.
Now the eyes of Israel were dim through age, and he could not see; and he brought them near to him, and he kissed them, and embraced them.
Greek · SeptuagintΟἱ ὀφθαλμοὶ δὲ Ἰσραὴλ ἐβαρυώπησαν ἀπὸ τοῦ γήρως, καὶ οὐκ ἠδύνατο βλέπειν· καὶ ἤγγισεν αὐτοὺς πρὸς αὐτὸν, καὶ ἐφίλησεν αὐτοὺς, καὶ περιέλαβεν αὐτους.
And Israel said to Joseph, Behold, I have not been deprived of [seeing] thy face, and lo! God has showed me thy seed also.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ εἶπεν Ἰσραὴλ πρὸς Ἰωσὴφ, ἰδοὺ τοῦ προσώπου σου οὐκ ἐστερήθην, καὶ ἰδοὺ ἔδειξέ μοι ὁ Θεὸς καὶ τὸ σπέρμα σου.
And Joseph brought them out from [between] his knees, and they did reverence to him, with their face to the ground.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ ἐξήγαγεν αὐτοὺς Ἰωσὴφ ἀπὸ τῶν γονάτων αὐτοῦ· καὶ προσεκύνησαν αὐτῷ ἐπὶ πρόσωπον ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς.
And Joseph took his two sons, both Ephraim in his right hand, but on the left of Israel, and Manasse on his left hand, but on the right of Israel, and brought them near to him.
Greek · SeptuagintΛαβὼν δὲ Ἰωσὴφ τοὺς δύο υἱοὺς αὐτοῦ, τόν τε Ἐφραὶμ ἐν τῇ δεξιᾷ, ἐξ ἀριστερῶν δὲ Ἰσραὴλ, τὸν δὲ Μανασσῆ ἐξ ἀριστερῶν, ἐκ δεξιῶν δὲ Ἰσραὴλ, ἤγγισεν αὐτοὺς αὐτῷ.
But Israel having stretched out his right hand, laid it on the head of Ephraim, and he was the younger; and his left hand on the head of Manasse, [guiding] his hands crosswise.
Greek · SeptuagintἘκτείνας δὲ Ἰσραὴλ τὴν χεῖρα τὴν δεξιὰν, ἐπέβαλεν ἐπὶ τὴν κεφαλὴν Ἐφραὶμ, οὗτος δὲ ἦν ὁ νεώτερος, καὶ τὴν ἀριστερὰν ἐπὶ τὴν κεφαλὴν Μανασσῆ, ἐναλλὰξ τὰς χεῖρας.
