And to the second he gave the name Ephraim, for he said, God has given me fruit in the land of my sorrow.

בְּאֶ֥רֶץ (אֶ֥רֶץ) 'E.retz “[the] land of”

And so the seven good years in Egypt came to an end.

בְּאֶ֥רֶץ (אֶ֥רֶץ) 'E.retz “[the] land of”

Then came the first of the seven years of need as Joseph had said: and in every other land they were short of food; but in the land of Egypt there was bread.

הָ֣אֲרָצ֔וֹת (אֲרָצ֔וֹת) 'a.ra.Tzot “lands”אֶ֥רֶץ 'E.retz “[the] land of”

And when all the land of Egypt was in need of food, the people came crying to Pharaoh for bread; and Pharaoh said to the people, Go to Joseph, and whatever he says to you, do it.

אֶ֣רֶץ 'E.retz “[the] land of”

And everywhere on the earth they were short of food; then Joseph, opening all his store-houses, gave the people of Egypt grain for money; so great was the need of food in the land of Egypt.

הָאָ֑רֶץ (אָ֑רֶץ) 'A.retz “land”בְּאֶ֥רֶץ (אֶ֥רֶץ) 'E.retz “[the] land of”

And all lands sent to Egypt, to Joseph, to get grain, for the need was great over all the earth.

הָאָ֙רֶץ֙ (אָ֙רֶץ֙) 'A.retz “earth”הָאָֽרֶץ׃ (אָֽרֶץ) 'A.retz “earth”

And the sons of Israel came with all the others to get grain: for they were very short of food in the land of Canaan.

בְּאֶ֥רֶץ (אֶ֥רֶץ) 'E.retz “[the] land of”

Now Joseph was ruler over all the land, and it was he who gave out the grain to all the people of the land; and Joseph's brothers came before him and went down on their faces to the earth.

הָאָ֔רֶץ (אָ֔רֶץ) 'A.retz “land”הָאָ֑רֶץ (אָ֑רֶץ) 'A.retz “land”

And when Joseph saw his brothers, it was clear to him who they were, but he made himself strange to them, and talking roughly to them, said, Where do you come from? And they said, From the land of Canaan, to get food.

מֵאֶ֥רֶץ (אֶ֥רֶץ) 'E.retz “[the] land of”

Then the memory of his dreams about them came back to Joseph, and he said to them, You have come secretly to see how poor the land is.

הָאָ֖רֶץ (אָ֖רֶץ) 'A.retz “land”

And he said to them, No, but you have come to see how poor the land is.

הָאָ֖רֶץ (אָ֖רֶץ) 'A.retz “land”

Then they said, We your servants are twelve brothers, sons of one man in the land of Canaan; the youngest of us is now with our father, and one is dead.

בְּאֶ֣רֶץ (אֶ֣רֶץ) 'E.retz “[the] land of”

So when they came to Jacob their father, in the land of Canaan, they gave him an account of all their experiences, saying,

אַ֣רְצָה (אַ֣רְצָ) 'Ar.tza “[the] land of”

The man who is the ruler of the country was rough with us and put us in prison, saying that we had come with a secret evil purpose.

הָאָ֛רֶץ (אָ֛רֶץ) 'A.retz “land”הָאָֽרֶץ׃ (אָֽרֶץ) 'A.retz “land”

We are twelve brothers, sons of our father; one is dead, and the youngest is now with our father in the land of Canaan.

בְּאֶ֥רֶץ (אֶ֥רֶץ) 'E.retz “[the] land of”

And the ruler of the land said, In this way I may be certain that you are true men; let one of you be kept here with me, while you go and take grain for the needs of your families;

הָאָ֔רֶץ (אָ֔רֶץ) 'A.retz “land”

And come back to me with your youngest brother: then I will be certain that you are true men, and I will give your brother back to you and let you do trade in the land.

הָאָ֖רֶץ (אָ֖רֶץ) 'A.retz “land”

And when the grain which they had got in Egypt was all used up, their father said to them, Go again and get us a little food.

בָּאָֽרֶץ׃ (אָֽרֶץ) 'A.retz “land”

And take twice as much money with you; that is to say, take back the money which was put in your bags, for it may have been an error;

הָאָ֙רֶץ֙ (אָ֙רֶץ֙) 'A.retz “land”

See, the money which was in the mouth of our bags we gave back to you when we came again from Canaan: how then might we take silver or gold from your lord's house?

מֵאֶ֣רֶץ (אֶ֣רֶץ) 'E.retz “[the] land of”

For these two years have been years of need, and there are still five more years to come in which there will be no ploughing or cutting of grain.

הָאָ֑רֶץ (אָ֑רֶץ) 'A.retz “land”

God sent me before you to keep you and yours living on earth so that you might become a great nation.

בָּאָ֑רֶץ (אָ֑רֶץ) 'A.retz “earth”

So now it was not you who sent me here, but God: and he has made me as a father to Pharaoh, and lord of all his house, and ruler over all the land of Egypt.

אֶ֥רֶץ 'E.retz “[the] land of”

The land of Goshen will be your living-place, and you will be near me; you and your children and your children's children, and your flocks and herds and all you have:

בְאֶֽרֶץ־ (אֶֽרֶץ) 'e.retz- “[the] land of”

And Pharaoh said to Joseph, Say to your brothers, Put your goods on your beasts and go back to the land of Canaan;
