NASB
""Let the food become as a reserve for the land for the seven years of famine which will occur in the land of Egypt, so that the land will not perish during the famine.""
— Genesis 41:36, NASB
“And that food shall be for store to the land against the seven years of famine, which shall be in the land of Egypt; that the land perish not through the famine.”
“And the food shall be for a store to the land against the seven years of famine, which shall be in the land of Egypt; that the land perish not through the famine. ”
“The food will be for a store to the land against the seven years of famine, which will be in the land of Egypt; that the land not perish through the famine."”
“This food should be held in storage for the land in preparation for the seven years of famine that will occur throughout the land of Egypt. In this way the land will survive the famine.””
“And let it be in readiness, against the famine of seven years to come, which shall oppress Egypt, and the land shall not be consumed with scarcity.”
“And let that food be kept in store for the land till the seven bad years which are to come in Egypt; so that the land may not come to destruction through need of food.”
“And that food shall be for store to the land against the seven years of famine, which shall be in the land of Egypt; that the land perish not through the famine.”
"Now let Pharaoh look for a man discerning and wise, and set him over the land of Egypt.
"Let Pharaoh take action to appoint overseers in charge of the land, and let him exact a fifth of the produce of the land of Egypt in the seven years of abundance.
"Then let them gather all the food of these good years that are coming, and store up the grain for food in the cities under Pharaoh's authority, and let them guard it.
"Let the food become as a reserve for the land for the seven years of famine which will occur in the land of Egypt, so that the land will not perish during the famine."
Now the proposal seemed good to Pharaoh and to all his servants.
Then Pharaoh said to his servants, "Can we find a man like this, in whom is a divine spirit?"
So Pharaoh said to Joseph, "Since God has informed you of all this, there is no one so discerning and wise as you are.
