Genesis 47:22-24
Holman Christian Standard Bible
22 The only land he didn’t acquire was the priests’ portion, for it was given to them by Pharaoh. They lived off[a] the rations Pharaoh had given them; therefore they did not sell their land.
23 Then Joseph said to the people, “Understand today that I have acquired you and your land for Pharaoh. Here is seed for you. Sow it in the land. 24 At harvest, you are to give a fifth of it to Pharaoh,(A) and four-fifths will be yours as seed for the field and as food for yourselves, your households, and your dependents.”
