GOD’S WORD Translation

¹¹ As Pharaoh had ordered, Joseph had his father and his brothers live in the best part of Egypt, the region of Rameses. He gave them property there. ¹² Joseph also provided his father, his brothers, and all his father’s family with food based on the number of children they had.
