Genesis 47:14-16

Easy-to-Read Version

¹⁴ People in the land bought more and more grain. Joseph saved the money and brought it to Pharaoh’s house. ¹⁵ After some time, the people in Egypt and Canaan had no money left. They had spent all their money to buy grain. So the people of Egypt went to Joseph and said, “Please give us food. Our money is gone. If we don’t eat, we will die while you are watching.”

¹⁶ But Joseph answered, “Give me your cattle, and I will give you food.”
