This food should be held in reserve for the country, to be used during the seven years of famine that will come upon Egypt, so that the country may not be ruined by the famine.”

The grain should be stored up for the country to use later. It will be needed during the seven years when there isn’t enough food in Egypt. Then the country won’t be destroyed just because it doesn’t have enough food.”

That food shall be a reserve for the land against the seven years of famine that are to occur in the land of Egypt, so that the land may not perish through the famine.”

That way there will be enough to eat when the seven years of famine come to the land of Egypt. Otherwise this famine will destroy the land.”

饥荒很严重，到处都缺粮，埃及和迦南都饱受饥荒之苦。约瑟把埃及人和迦南人向他买粮的银子收集起来，存放在法老的库房里。埃及人和迦南人的银子都用光了，埃及人就来见约瑟，对他说：“我们的钱财都用光了，求你给我们粮食，免得我们饿死在你面前。”约瑟说：“你们的钱财如果用尽了，可以用你们的牲畜来交换粮食。”于是，他们把牲畜赶到约瑟那里，用他们的牛、羊、驴和马跟约瑟换粮食。那一年，他们就依靠换来的粮食生活。到了第二年，他们又来见约瑟，对他说：“不瞒我主，我们的钱都用光了，牲畜也给你了，除了我们自己和田地以外，我们一无所有。求你不要让我们人死地荒。我们愿意用自己和我们的田地来换粮食，我们和我们的田地都归法老。求你给我们种子，我们好活下去，不致饿死，土地也不致荒废。”埃及人为饥荒所迫，纷纷卖掉自己的田地。约瑟替法老收购了埃及全国的田地，最后，所有的田地都归法老了。约瑟使埃及全境的人都成为法老的奴仆。约瑟唯独没有买祭司的田地，因为祭司吃法老的俸禄，有足够的供给，不用卖地。约瑟对百姓说：“我为法老买了你们和你们的土地，这里有种子，你们可以拿去耕种。但是你们要把收成的五分之一给法老，其余的，你们可以留下来作种子和全家人的口粮。”他们说：“你救了我们的命，求你恩待我们，让我们做法老的奴仆吧。”
