² And he took five men from among his brothers and ^(A)set them before Pharaoh. ³ Then Pharaoh said to his brothers, “^(B)What is your occupation?” So they said to Pharaoh, “Your servants are ^(C)shepherds, both we and our fathers.” ⁴ And they said to Pharaoh, “^(D)We have come to sojourn in the land, for there is no pasture for your servants’ flocks, for ^(E)the famine is heavy in the land of Canaan. So now, please let your servants ^[a](F)live in the land of Goshen.”
