1 Then Joseph went and told Pharaoh, “My father and my brothers and their flocks and their herds and all that they possess have come from the land of Canaan and are now in the land of Goshen.”
2 He took five men from among his brothers and presented them before Pharaoh.
3 Pharaoh asked his brothers, “What is your occupation?”And they said to Pharaoh, “Your servants are shepherds, both we and also our fathers.”
4 They said to Pharaoh, “We have come to sojourn in the land, for your servants have no pasture for their flocks, because the famine is severe in the land of Canaan. Now therefore, please allow your servants to dwell in the land of Goshen.”
