Genesis 47:2-4
International Standard Version
2 He brought along five of his brothers to present before Pharaoh.
3 Pharaoh asked his brothers, “What are your occupations?”
“Your servants are shepherds,” they replied, “both we and our ancestors. 4 We’ve come to live for a while[a] in this region, since there is no pasture back in Canaan[b] for your servants’ flocks. May your servants please live in the Goshen territory?”
