9 “Because the patriarchs were jealous of Joseph, they sold him into slavery in Egypt. God was with him, however,
10 and rescued him from all his troubles. The grace and wisdom he gave Joseph were recognized by Pharaoh, king of Egypt, who appointed him ruler over Egypt and over his whole palace.
11 A famine came upon all Egypt and Canaan, and great hardship came with it. Our ancestors had nothing to eat.
12 When Jacob heard there was grain in Egypt, he sent our ancestors there for the first time.
13 During their second visit, Joseph told his brothers who he was, and Pharaoh learned about Joseph’s family.
14 Joseph sent for his father Jacob and all his relatives—seventy-five in all—and invited them to live with him.
15 So Jacob went down to Egypt, where he and our ancestors died.
