Genesis 47:26-28

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

²⁶ From that time unto this day, in the whole land of Egypt, the fifth part is paid to the king, and it is become as a law, except the land of the priests, which was free from this covenant.

²⁷ So Israel dwelt in Egypt, that is, in the land of Gessen, and possessed it: and grew, and was multiplied exceedingly.

²⁸ And he lived in it seventeen years: and all the days of his life came to a hundred and forty-seven years.
