Genesis 47:8-13 World Messianic Bible British Edition (WMBBE)

8. Pharaoh said to Jacob, “How old are you?”

9. Jacob said to Pharaoh, “The years of my pilgrimage are one hundred and thirty years. Few and evil have been the days of the years of my life, and they have not attained to the days of the years of the life of my fathers in the days of their pilgrimage.”

10. Jacob blessed Pharaoh, and went out from the presence of Pharaoh.

11. Joseph placed his father and his brothers, and gave them a possession in the land of Egypt, in the best of the land, in the land of Rameses, as Pharaoh had commanded.

12. Joseph provided his father, his brothers, and all of his father’s household with bread, according to the sizes of their families.

13. There was no bread in all the land; for the famine was very severe, so that the land of Egypt and the land of Canaan fainted by reason of the famine.
