Genesis 47:12 in Context — Genesis 47
10 Jacob bénit encore Pharaon, et se retira de devant Pharaon.
11 Joseph établit son père et ses frères, et leur donna une propriété dans le pays d’Égypte, dans la meilleure partie du pays, dans la contrée de Ramsès, comme Pharaon l’avait ordonné.
12 Joseph fournit du pain à son père et à ses frères, et à toute la famille de son père, selon le nombre des enfants.
13 Il n’y avait plus de pain dans tout le pays, car la famine était très grande; le pays d’Égypte et le pays de Canaan languissaient, à cause de la famine.
14 Joseph recueillit tout l’argent qui se trouvait dans le pays d’Égypte et dans le pays de Canaan, contre le blé qu’on achetait; et il fit entrer cet argent dans la maison de Pharaon.
