Genesis 47:17 WEB

¹⁵  When the money was all spent in the land of Egypt, and in the land of Canaan, all the Egyptians came to Joseph, and said, 'Give us bread, for why should we die in your presence? For our money fails.'

¹⁶  Joseph said, 'Give your cattle; and I will give you food for your cattle, if money fails.'

¹⁷  They brought their cattle to Joseph, and Joseph gave them bread in exchange for the horses, and for the flocks, and for the herds, and for the donkeys: and he fed them with bread in exchange for all their cattle for that year.

¹⁸  When that year was ended, they came to him the second year, and said to him, 'We will not hide from my lord how our money is all spent, and the herds of cattle are my lord's. There is nothing left in the sight of my lord, but our bodies, and our lands.

¹⁹  Why should we die before your eyes, both we and our land? Buy us and our land for bread, and we and our land will be servants to Pharaoh. Give us seed, that we may live, and not die, and that the land won't be desolate.'
