Genesis 47:15

Back to Verses

And when money failed in the land of Egypt, and in the land of Canaan, all the Egyptians came unto Joseph, and said, Give us bread: for why should we die in thy presence? for the money faileth.

When there was no money left in Egypt and Canaan, all the Egyptians went to Joseph and asked for bread, saying, "Give it to us so we don't die while you are still alive, since money is no good now."
