Genesis 47:17 in Context — Genesis 47
15 Quand l’argent du pays d’Égypte et du pays de Canaan fut épuisé, tous les Égyptiens vinrent à Joseph, en disant: Donne-nous du pain! Pourquoi mourrions-nous en ta présence? Car l’argent manque.
16 Joseph dit: Donnez vos troupeaux, et je vous donnerai du pain contre vos troupeaux, si l’argent manque.
17 Ils amenèrent leurs troupeaux à Joseph, et Joseph leur donna du pain contre les chevaux, contre les troupeaux de brebis et de bœufs, et contre les ânes. Il leur fournit ainsi du pain cette année-là contre tous leurs troupeaux.
18 Lorsque cette année fut écoulée, ils vinrent à Joseph l’année suivante, et lui dirent: Nous ne cacherons point à mon seigneur que l’argent est épuisé, et que les troupeaux de bétail ont été amenés à mon seigneur; il ne reste devant mon seigneur que nos corps et nos terres.
19 Pourquoi mourrions-nous sous tes yeux, nous et nos terres? Achète-nous avec nos terres contre du pain, et nous appartiendrons à mon seigneur, nous et nos terres. Donne-nous de quoi semer, afin que nous vivions et que nous ne mourions pas, et que nos terres ne soient pas désolées.
