9
"The patriarchs, moved with jealousy against Yosef, sold him into Mitzrayim. God was with him,
10
and delivered him out of all his afflictions, and gave him favor and wisdom before Par`oh, king of Mitzrayim. He made him governor over Mitzrayim and all his house.
11
Now a famine came over all the land of Mitzrayim and Kana`an, and great affliction. Our fathers found no food.
12
But when Ya`akov heard that there was grain in Mitzrayim, he sent forth our fathers the first time.
13
On the second time Yosef was made known to his brothers, and Yosef's race was revealed to Par`oh.
14
Yosef sent, and summoned Ya`akov, his father, and all his relatives, seventy-five souls.
15
Ya`akov went down into Mitzrayim, and he died, himself and our fathers,
16
and they were brought back to Shekhem, and laid in the tomb that Avraham bought for a price in silver from the sons of Hamor of Shekhem.
