Genesis 47:6-10
New American Standard Bible
6 The land of Egypt is [a]at your disposal; settle your father and your brothers in (A)the best of the land, let them live in the land of Goshen; and if you know any (B)capable men among them, then [b]put them in charge of my livestock.”
7 Then Joseph brought his father Jacob and [c]presented him to Pharaoh; and Jacob (C)blessed Pharaoh. 8 And Pharaoh said to Jacob, “How many [d]years have you lived?” 9 So Jacob said to Pharaoh, “The [e](D)years of my living abroad are [f]130; few and [g]unpleasant have been the [h]years of my life, nor have they [i]attained (E)the [j]years [k]that my fathers lived during the days of their living abroad.” 10 So Jacob (F)blessed Pharaoh, and went out from [l]his presence.
