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.”

The food will be to supply the land against the seven years of famine, which will be in the land of Egypt; so that the land will not perish through the famine.”

当时全地都没有粮食，因为饥荒极其严重；埃及地和迦南地都因饥荒的缘故而衰竭。约瑟收聚了埃及地和迦南地能找到的所有银子，就是众人用来买粮的银子；约瑟把那些银子都交到法老家。当埃及地和迦南地的银子用尽之后，所有的埃及人都来到约瑟那里，说：“求你给我们粮食吧！难道银子用完了，我们就要死在你面前吗？”约瑟说：“如果银子用完了，可以把你们的牲畜带来。我就给你们粮食，来换你们的牲畜。”于是，他们把牲畜带到约瑟那里，约瑟就给他们粮食，来换他们的马匹、羊群、牛群和驴。那一年，约瑟就给他们提供粮食，换了他们所有的牲畜。那一年过后，次年他们又来到约瑟那里，对他说：“不瞒我主，我们的银子用尽了，牲畜也归了我主；除了我们的身体和土地以外，我们在我主面前一无所剩。难道我们和我们的地要在你眼前消亡吗？求你用粮食买我们和我们的地，我们连人带地都必成为法老的奴仆；又求你给我们种子，使我们得以存活，不至于死，地也不至于荒芜。”于是，约瑟为法老买了埃及所有的地，因为饥荒重压埃及人，他们各人都卖了自己的地。这样，埃及所有的地就都成为法老的了；至于埃及边界一端到另一端的所有百姓，约瑟都使他们成了奴隶。只有祭司的地，约瑟不买，因为祭司有来自法老的定额粮；他们可以吃法老所给的定额粮，所以不用卖自己的地。约瑟对百姓说：“看哪，我今日为法老买了你们和你们的地。看，这些是给你们的种子，你们可以种地了。到了收获的时候，你们要把收成的五分之一交给法老，五分之四归你们自己，作为田里的种子以及你们、你们家人和孩子的食物。”他们说：“你使我们存活了；愿我们在我主眼前蒙恩，我们必作法老的奴仆。”
