Genesis 47:20-22

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

²⁰ So Joseph bought all the land of Egypt, every man selling his possessions, because of the greatness of the famine. And he brought it into Pharao's hands:

²¹ And all its people from one end of the borders of Egypt, even to the other end thereof,

²² Except the land of the priests, which had been given them by the king: to whom also a certain allowance of food was given out of the public stores, and therefore they were not forced to sell their possessions.
