Acts 7:12 in Context — Acts 7
10 Mais Dieu fut avec lui, et le délivra de toutes ses tribulations; il lui donna de la sagesse et lui fit trouver grâce devant Pharaon, roi d’Égypte, qui l’établit gouverneur d’Égypte et de toute sa maison.
11 Il survint une famine dans tout le pays d’Égypte, et dans celui de Canaan. La détresse était grande, et nos pères ne trouvaient pas de quoi se nourrir.
12 Jacob apprit qu’il y avait du blé en Égypte, et il y envoya nos pères une première fois.
13 Et la seconde fois, Joseph fut reconnu par ses frères, et Pharaon sut de quelle famille il était.
14 Puis Joseph envoya chercher son père Jacob, et toute sa famille, composée de soixante-quinze personnes.
