Genesis 47:14-16

Expanded Bible

¹⁴ Joseph ·collected [gathered] all the ·money [silver] that was to be found in Egypt and Canaan. People paid for the grain they were buying, and Joseph brought that ·money [silver] to ·the king’s [^LPharaoh’s] palace. ¹⁵ After some time, when the people in Egypt and Canaan had no ·money [silver] left, ·they [^Lall Egypt] went to Joseph and said, “Please give us food. Our money is gone, ·and if we don’t eat, we will [^Lwhy should we…?] die here in front of you.”

¹⁶ Joseph answered, “Since you have no ·money [silver], give me your ·farm animals [livestock], and I will give you food in return [^Lfor your livestock].”
