Genesis 47:4-6 ▼

4 And they said to Pharaoh, “We have come to sojourn in the land because there is no pasture for the sheep that your servants have, for the famine is severe in the land of Canaan. And now, please, let your servants dwell in the land of Goshen.”

5 And Pharaoh spoke to Joseph, saying, “Your father and your brothers have come to you.

6 The land of Egypt, it is before you. In the best of the land cause your father and your brothers to dwell; let them dwell in the land of Goshen. And if you know that there are among them men of valor, then you shall appoint them captains of livestock over what is mine.”
