The Acts 7:11-19 Darby Translation 1890 (DARBY)

11. But a famine came upon all the land of Egypt and Canaan, and great distress, and our fathers found no food.

12. But Jacob, having heard of there being corn in Egypt, sent out our fathers first;

13. and the second time Joseph was made known to his brethren, and the family of Joseph became known to Pharaoh.

14. And Joseph sent and called down to him his father Jacob and all his kindred, seventy-five souls.

15. And Jacob went down into Egypt and died, he and our fathers,

16. and were carried over to Sychem and placed in the sepulchre which Abraham bought for a sum of money of the sons of Emmor the father of Sychem.

17. But as the time of promise drew near which God had promised to Abraham, the people increased and multiplied in Egypt,

18. until another king over Egypt arose who did not know Joseph.

19. He dealt subtilly with our race, and evil entreated the fathers, casting out their infants that they might not live.
