Genesis 47:11-13

EasyEnglish Bible

¹¹ So Joseph helped his father and his brothers to make their home in Egypt. He gave them a good place to live in the best region of Egypt. This was in the region that is now called Rameses. Joseph did for his family what Pharaoh had told him to do.^[a]

¹² Joseph also sent food to his father, his brothers and all his father's people. He gave them enough food for themselves and all their children.

¹³ But because the famine was bad, no food grew in all of Egypt. As a result, the people of Egypt and Canaan became hungry and weak.
