Genesis 47:1-6

Then Joseph
<03130>
came
<0935> (8799)
and told
<05046> (8686)
Pharaoh
<06547>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)_,
My father
<01>
and my brethren
<0251>_,
and their flocks
<06629>_,
and their herds
<01241>_,
and all that they have, are come out
<0935> (8804)
of the land
<0776>
of Canaan
<03667>_;
and, behold, they [are] in the land
<0776>
of Goshen
<01657>_.
And he took
<03947> (8804)
some
<07097>
of his brethren
<0251>_,
[even] five
<02568>
men
<0582>_,
and presented
<03322> (8686)
them unto
<06440>
Pharaoh
<06547>_.
And Pharaoh
<06547>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto his brethren
<0251>_,
What [is] your occupation
<04639>_?
And they said
<0559> (8799)
unto Pharaoh
<06547>_,
Thy servants
<05650>
[are] shepherds
<07462> (8802) <06629>_,
both we, [and] also our fathers
<01>_.
They said
<0559> (8799)
moreover unto Pharaoh
<06547>_,
For to sojourn
<01481> (8800)
in the land
<0776>
are we come
<0935> (8804)_;
for thy servants
<05650>
have no pasture
<04829>
for their flocks
<06629>_;
for the famine
<07458>
[is] sore
<03515>
in the land
<0776>
of Canaan
<03667>_:
now therefore, we pray thee, let thy servants
<05650>
dwell
<03427> (8799)
in the land
<0776>
of Goshen
<01657>_.
And Pharaoh
<06547>
spake
<0559> (8799)
unto Joseph
<03130>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Thy father
<01>
and thy brethren
<0251>
are come
<0935> (8804)
unto thee:
The land
<0776>
of Egypt
<04714>
[is] before thee
<06440>_;
in the best
<04315>
of the land
<0776>
make
<03427> (0)
thy father
<01>
and brethren
<0251>
to dwell
<03427> (8685)_;
in the land
<0776>
of Goshen
<01657>
let them dwell
<03427> (8799)_:
and if thou knowest
<03045> (8804) <03426>
[any] men
<0582>
of activity
<02428>
among them, then make them
<07760> (8804)
rulers
<08269>
over my cattle
<04735>_.
