Genesis 47:19-21

Young's Literal Translation

¹⁹ why do we die before thine eyes, both we and our ground? buy us and our ground for bread, and we and our ground are servants to Pharaoh; and give seed, and we live, and die not, and the ground is not desolate.'

²⁰ And Joseph buyeth all the ground of Egypt for Pharaoh, for the Egyptians have sold each his field, for the famine hath been severe upon them, and the land becometh Pharaoh's;

²¹ as to the people he hath removed them to cities from the [one] end of the border of Egypt even unto its [other] end.
