LXX
ΕΓΕΝΕΤΟ δὲ μετὰ δύο ἔτη ἡμερῶν, Φαραὼ εἶδεν ἐνύπνιον· ᾤετο ἑστάναι ἐπὶ τοῦ ποταμοῦ,
BSB
BSB:
After two full years had passed, Pharaoh had a dream: He was standing beside the Nile,
2
LXX
καὶ ἰδοὺ ὥσπερ ἐκ τοῦ ποταμοῦ ἀνέβαινον ἑπτὰ βόες καλαὶ τῷ εἴδει καὶ ἐκλεκταὶ ταῖς σαρξὶ καὶ ἐβόσκοντο ἐν τῷ Ἄχει.
BSB
BSB:
when seven cows, sleek and well-fed, came up from the river and began to graze among the reeds.
3
LXX
ἄλλαι δὲ ἑπτὰ βόες ἀνέβαινον μετὰ ταύτας ἐκ τοῦ ποταμοῦ αἰσχραὶ τῷ εἴδει καὶ λεπταὶ ταῖς σαρξὶ καὶ ἐνέμοντο παρὰ τὰς βόας ἐπὶ τὸ χεῖλος τοῦ ποταμοῦ·
BSB
BSB:
After them, seven other cows, sickly and thin, came up from the Nile and stood beside the well-fed cows on the bank of the river.
4
LXX
καὶ κατέφαγον αἱ ἑπτὰ βόες αἱ αἰσχραὶ καὶ λεπταὶ ταῖς σαρξὶ τὰς ἑπτὰ βόας τὰς καλὰς τῷ εἴδει καὶ τὰς ἐκλεκτὰς ταῖς σαρξί. ἠγέρθη δὲ Φαραώ.
BSB
BSB:
And the cows that were sickly and thin devoured the seven sleek, well-fed cows. Then Pharaoh woke up,
5
LXX
καὶ ἐνυπνιάσθη τὸ δεύτερον, καὶ ἰδοὺ ἑπτὰ στάχυες ἀνέβαινον ἐν τῷ πυθμένι ἑνὶ ἐκλεκτοὶ καὶ καλοί·
BSB
BSB:
but he fell back asleep and dreamed a second time: Seven heads of grain, plump and ripe, came up on one stalk.
6
LXX
καὶ ἰδοὺ ἑπτὰ στάχυες λεπτοὶ καὶ ἀνεμόφθοροι ἀνεφύοντο μετ᾿ αὐτούς·
BSB
BSB:
After them, seven other heads of grain sprouted, thin and scorched by the east wind.
7
LXX
καὶ κατέπιον οἱ ἑπτὰ στάχυες οἱ λεπτοὶ καὶ ἀνεμόφθοροι τοὺς ἑπτὰ στάχυας τοὺς ἐκλεκτοὺς καὶ τοὺς πλήρεις. ἠγέρθη δὲ Φαραώ, καὶ ἦν ἐνύπνιον.
BSB
BSB:
And the thin heads of grain swallowed up the seven plump, ripe ones. Then Pharaoh awoke and realized it was a dream.
8
LXX
Ἐγένετο δὲ πρωΐ καὶ ἐταράχθη ἡ ψυχὴ αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἀποστείλας ἐκάλεσε πάντας τοὺς ἐξηγητὰς Αἰγύπτου καὶ πάντας τοὺς σοφοὺς αὐτῆς, καὶ διηγήσατο αὐτοῖς Φαραὼ τὸ ἐνύπνιον αὐτοῦ, καὶ οὐκ ἦν ὁ ἀπαγγέλλων αὐτὸ τῷ Φαραώ.
BSB
BSB:
In the morning his spirit was troubled, so he summoned all the magicians and wise men of Egypt. Pharaoh told them his dreams, but no one could interpret them for him.
9
LXX
καὶ ἐλάλησεν ὁ ἀρχιοινοχόος πρὸς Φαραὼ λέγων· τὴν ἁμαρτίαν μου ἀναμιμνήσκω σήμερον.
BSB
BSB:
Then the chief cupbearer said to Pharaoh, “Today I recall my failures.
10
LXX
Φαραὼ ὠργίσθη τοῖς παισὶν αὐτοῦ καὶ ἔθετο ἡμᾶς ἐν φυλακῇ ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ τοῦ ἀρχιμαγείρου, ἐμέ τε καὶ τὸν ἀρχισιτοποιόν.
BSB
BSB:
Pharaoh was once angry with his servants, and he put me and the chief baker in the custody of the captain of the guard.
11
LXX
καὶ εἴδομεν ἐνύπνιον ἀμφότεροι ἐν νυκτὶ μιᾷ ἐγὼ καὶ αὐτός, ἕκαστος κατὰ τὸ αὐτοῦ ἐνύπνιον εἴδομεν.
BSB
BSB:
One night both the chief baker and I had dreams, and each dream had its own meaning.
12
LXX
ἦν δὲ ἐκεῖ μεθ᾿ ἡμῶν νεανίσκος παῖς Ἑβραῖος τοῦ ἀρχιμαγείρου, καὶ διηγησάμεθα αὐτῷ, καὶ συνέκρινεν ἡμῖν.
BSB
BSB:
Now a young Hebrew was there with us, a servant of the captain of the guard. We told him our dreams and he interpreted them for us individually.
13
LXX
ἐγενήθη δέ, καθὼς συνέκρινεν ἡμῖν, οὕτω καὶ συνέβη, ἐμέ τε ἀποκατασταθῆναι ἐπὶ τὴν ἀρχήν μου, ἐκεῖνον δὲ κρεμασθῆναι.
BSB
BSB:
And it happened to us just as he had interpreted: I was restored to my position, and the other man was hanged.”
14
LXX
Ἀποστείλας δὲ Φαραὼ ἐκάλεσε τὸν Ἰωσήφ, καὶ ἐξήγαγον αὐτὸν ἀπὸ τοῦ ὀχυρώματος καὶ ἐξύρησαν αὐτὸν καὶ ἤλλαξαν τὴν στολὴν αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἦλθε πρὸς Φαραώ.
BSB
BSB:
So Pharaoh sent for Joseph, who was quickly brought out of the dungeon. After he had shaved and changed his clothes, he went in before Pharaoh.
15
LXX
εἶπε δὲ Φαραὼ πρὸς Ἰωσήφ· ἐνύπνιον ἑώρακα, καὶ ὁ συγκρίνων οὐκ ἔστιν αὐτό· ἐγὼ δὲ ἀκήκοα περὶ σοῦ λεγόντων, ἀκούσαντά σε ἐνύπνια συγκρῖναι αὐτά.
BSB
BSB:
Pharaoh said to Joseph, “I had a dream, and no one can interpret it. But I have heard it said of you that when you hear a dream you can interpret it.”
16
LXX
ἀποκριθεὶς δὲ Ἰωσὴφ τῷ Φαραὼ εἶπεν· ἄνευ τοῦ Θεοῦ οὐκ ἀποκριθήσεται τὸ σωτήριον Φαραώ.
BSB
BSB:
“I myself cannot do it,” Joseph replied, “but God will give Pharaoh a sound answer.”
17
LXX
ἐλάλησε δὲ Φαραὼ τῷ Ἰωσὴφ λέγων· ἐν τῷ ὕπνῳ μου ᾤμην ἑστάναι παρὰ τὸ χεῖλος τοῦ ποταμοῦ,
BSB
BSB:
Then Pharaoh said to Joseph: “In my dream I was standing on the bank of the Nile,
18
LXX
καὶ ὥσπερ ἐκ τοῦ ποταμοῦ ἀνέβαινον ἑπτὰ βόες καλαὶ τῷ εἴδει καὶ ἐκλεκταὶ ταῖς σαρξί, καὶ ἐνέμοντο ἐν τῷ Ἄχει.
BSB
BSB:
when seven cows, well-fed and sleek, came up from the river and began to graze among the reeds.
19
LXX
καὶ ἰδοὺ ἑπτὰ βόες ἕτεραι ἀνέβαινον ὀπίσω αὐτῶν ἐκ τοῦ ποταμοῦ πονηραὶ καὶ αἰσχραὶ τῷ εἴδει καὶ λεπταὶ ταῖς σαρξίν, οἵας οὐκ εἶδον τοιαύτας ἐν ὅλῃ γῇ Αἰγύπτου αἰσχροτέρας·
BSB
BSB:
After them, seven other cows—sickly, ugly, and thin—came up. I have never seen such ugly cows in all the land of Egypt!
20
LXX
καὶ κατέφαγον αἱ ἑπτὰ βόες αἱ αἰσχραὶ καὶ λεπταὶ τὰς ἑπτὰ βόας τὰς πρώτας τὰς καλὰς καὶ τὰς ἐκλεκτάς,
BSB
BSB:
Then the thin, ugly cows devoured the seven well-fed cows that were there first.
21
LXX
καὶ εἰσῆλθον εἰς τὰς κοιλίας αὐτῶν καὶ οὐ διάδηλοι ἐγένοντο, ὅτι εἰσῆλθον εἰς τὰς κοιλίας αὐτῶν, καὶ αἱ ὄψεις αὐτῶν αἰσχραί, καθὰ καὶ τὴν ἀρχήν· ἐξεγερθεὶς δὲ ἐκοιμήθην
BSB
BSB:
When they had devoured them, however, no one could tell that they had done so; their appearance was as ugly as it had been before. Then I awoke.
22
LXX
καὶ εἶδον πάλιν ἐν τῷ ὕπνῳ μου, καὶ ὥσπερ ἑπτὰ στάχυες ἀνέβαινον ἐν πυθμένι ἑνὶ πλήρεις καὶ καλοί·
BSB
BSB:
In my dream I also saw seven heads of grain, plump and ripe, growing on a single stalk.
23
LXX
ἄλλοι δὲ ἑπτὰ στάχυες λεπτοὶ καὶ ἀνεμόφθοροι ἀνεφύοντο ἐχόμενοι αὐτῶν.
BSB
BSB:
After them, seven other heads of grain sprouted—withered, thin, and scorched by the east wind.
24
LXX
καὶ κατέπιον οἱ ἑπτὰ στάχυες οἱ λεπτοὶ καὶ ἀνεμόφθοροι τοὺς ἑπτὰ στάχυας τοὺς καλοὺς καὶ τοὺς πλήρεις. εἶπα οὖν τοῖς ἐξηγηταῖς, καὶ οὐκ ἦν ὁ ἀπαγγέλλων μοι αὐτό.
BSB
BSB:
And the thin heads of grain swallowed the seven plump ones. I told this dream to the magicians, but no one could explain it to me.”
25
LXX
Καὶ εἶπεν Ἰωσὴφ τῷ Φαραώ· τὸ ἐνύπνιον Φαραὼ ἕν ἐστιν· ὅσα ὁ Θεὸς ποιεῖ, ἔδειξε τῷ Φαραώ.
BSB
BSB:
At this, Joseph said to Pharaoh, “The dreams of Pharaoh are one and the same. God has revealed to Pharaoh what He is about to do.
26
LXX
αἱ ἑπτὰ βόες αἱ καλαὶ ἑπτὰ ἔτη ἐστί, καὶ οἱ ἑπτὰ στάχυες οἱ καλοὶ ἑπτὰ ἔτη ἐστί· τὸ ἐνύπνιον Φαραὼ ἕν ἐστι,
BSB
BSB:
The seven good cows are seven years, and the seven ripe heads of grain are seven years. The dreams have the same meaning.
27
LXX
καὶ αἱ ἑπτὰ βόες αἱ λεπταὶ αἱ ἀναβαίνουσαι ὀπίσω αὐτῶν ἑπτὰ ἔτη ἐστί, καὶ οἱ ἑπτὰ στάχυες οἱ λεπτοὶ καὶ ἀνεμόφθοροι ἔσονται ἑπτὰ ἔτη λιμοῦ.
BSB
BSB:
Moreover, the seven thin, ugly cows that came up after them are seven years, and so are the seven worthless heads of grain scorched by the east wind—they are seven years of famine.
28
LXX
τὸ δὲ ρῆμα, ὃ εἴρηκα Φαραώ, ὅσα ὁ Θεὸς ποιεῖ, ἔδειξε τῷ Φαραώ,
BSB
BSB:
It is just as I said to Pharaoh: God has shown Pharaoh what He is about to do.
29
LXX
ἰδοὺ ἑπτὰ ἔτη ἔρχεται εὐθηνία πολλὴ ἐν πάσῃ γῇ Αἰγύπτου·
BSB
BSB:
Behold, seven years of great abundance are coming throughout the land of Egypt,
30
LXX
ἥξει δὲ ἑπτὰ ἔτη λιμοῦ μετὰ ταῦτα, καὶ ἐπιλήσονται τῆς πλησμονῆς τῆς ἐσομένης ἐν ὅλῃ Αἰγύπτῳ, καὶ ἀναλώσει ὁ λιμὸς τὴν γῆν,
BSB
BSB:
but seven years of famine will follow them. Then all the abundance in the land of Egypt will be forgotten, and the famine will devastate the land.
31
LXX
καὶ οὐκ ἐπιγνωσθήσεται ἡ εὐθηνία ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς ἀπὸ τοῦ λιμοῦ τοῦ ἐσομένου μετὰ ταῦτα· ἰσχυρὸς γὰρ ἔσται σφόδρα.
BSB
BSB:
The abundance in the land will not be remembered, since the famine that follows it will be so severe.
32
LXX
περὶ δὲ τοῦ δευτερῶσαι τὸ ἐνύπνιον Φαραὼ δίς, ὅτι ἀληθὲς ἔσται τὸ ρῆμα τὸ παρὰ τοῦ Θεοῦ, καὶ ταχυνεῖ ὁ Θεὸς τοῦ ποιῆσαι αὐτό.
BSB
BSB:
Moreover, because the dream was given to Pharaoh in two versions, the matter has been decreed by God, and He will carry it out shortly.
33
LXX
νῦν οὖν σκέψαι ἄνθρωπον φρόνιμον καὶ συνετὸν καὶ κατάστησον αὐτὸν ἐπὶ γῆς Αἰγύπτου·
BSB
BSB:
Now, therefore, Pharaoh should look for a discerning and wise man and set him over the land of Egypt.
34
LXX
καὶ ποιησάτω Φαραὼ καὶ καταστησάτω τοπάρχας ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς, καὶ ἀποπεμπτωσάτωσαν πάντα τὰ γεννήματα τῆς γῆς Αἰγύπτου τῶν ἑπτὰ ἐτῶν τῆς εὐθηνίας
BSB
BSB:
Let Pharaoh take action and appoint commissioners over the land to take a fifth of the harvest of Egypt during the seven years of abundance.
35
LXX
καὶ συναγαγέτωσαν πάντα τὰ βρώματα τῶν ἑπτὰ ἐτῶν τῶν ἐρχομένων τῶν καλῶν τούτων, καὶ συναχθήτω ὁ σῖτος ὑπὸ χεῖρα Φαραώ, βρώματα ἐν ταῖς πόλεσι φυλαχθήτω·
BSB
BSB:
Under the authority of Pharaoh, let them collect all the excess food from these good years, that they may come and lay up the grain to be preserved as food in the cities.
36
LXX
καὶ ἔσται τὰ βρώματα τὰ πεφυλαγμένα τῇ γῇ εἰς τὰ ἑπτὰ ἔτη τοῦ λιμοῦ, ἃ ἔσονται ἐν γῇ Αἰγύπτου, καὶ οὐκ ἐκτριβήσεται ἡ γῇ ἐν τῷ λιμῷ.
BSB
BSB:
This food will be a reserve for the land during the seven years of famine to come upon the land of Egypt. Then the country will not perish in the famine.”
37
LXX
Ἤρεσε δὲ τὸ ρῆμα ἐναντίον Φαραὼ καὶ ἐναντίον πάντων τῶν παίδων αὐτοῦ,
BSB
BSB:
This proposal pleased Pharaoh and all his officials.
38
LXX
καὶ εἶπε Φαραὼ πᾶσι τοῖς παισὶν αὐτοῦ· μὴ εὑρήσομεν ἄνθρωπον τοιοῦτον, ὃς ἔχει πνεῦμα Θεοῦ ἐν αὐτῷ;
BSB
BSB:
So Pharaoh asked them, “Can we find anyone like this man, in whom the Spirit of God abides?”
39
LXX
εἶπε δὲ Φαραὼ τῷ Ἰωσήφ· ἐπειδὴ ἔδειξεν ὁ Θεός σοι πάντα ταῦτα, οὐκ ἔστιν ἄνθρωπος φρονιμώτερος καὶ συνετώτερός σου·
BSB
BSB:
Then Pharaoh said to Joseph, “Since God has made all this known to you, there is no one as discerning and wise as you.
40
LXX
σὺ ἔσῃ ἐπὶ τῷ οἴκῳ μου, καὶ ἐπὶ τῷ στόματί σου ὑπακούσεται πᾶς ὁ λαός μου· πλὴν τὸν θρόνον ὑπερέξω σου ἐγώ.
BSB
BSB:
You shall be in charge of my house, and all my people are to obey your commands. Only with regard to the throne will I be greater than you.”
41
LXX
εἶπε δὲ Φαραὼ τῷ Ἰωσήφ· ἰδοὺ καθίστημί σε σήμερον ἐπὶ πάσης γῆς Αἰγύπτου.
BSB
BSB:
Pharaoh also told Joseph, “I hereby place you over all the land of Egypt.”
42
LXX
καὶ περιελόμενος Φαραὼ τὸν δακτύλιον ἀπὸ τῆς χειρὸς αὐτοῦ, περιέθηκεν αὐτὸν ἐπί τὴν χεῖρα Ἰωσὴφ καὶ ἐνέδυσεν αὐτὸν στολὴν βυσσίνην καὶ περιέθηκε κλοιὸν χρυσοῦν περὶ τὸν τράχηλον αὐτοῦ·
BSB
BSB:
Then Pharaoh removed the signet ring from his finger, put it on Joseph’s finger, clothed him in garments of fine linen, and placed a gold chain around his neck.
43
LXX
καὶ ἀνεβίβασεν αὐτὸν ἐπὶ τὸ ἅρμα τὸ δεύτερον τῶν αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐκήρυξεν ἔμπροσθεν αὐτοῦ κήρυξ· καὶ κατέστησεν αὐτὸν ἐφ᾿ ὅλης γῆς Αἰγύπτου.
BSB
BSB:
He had Joseph ride in his second chariot, with men calling out before him, “Bow the knee!” So he placed him over all the land of Egypt.
44
LXX
εἶπε δὲ Φαραὼ τῷ Ἰωσήφ· ἐγὼ Φαραώ, ἄνευ σοῦ οὐκ ἐξαρεῖ οὐδεὶς τὴν χεῖρα αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ πάσης γῆς Αἰγύπτου.
BSB
BSB:
And Pharaoh declared to Joseph, “I am Pharaoh, but without your permission, no one in all the land of Egypt shall lift his hand or foot.”
45
LXX
καὶ ἐκάλεσε Φαραὼ τὸ ὄνομα Ἰωσήφ, Ψονθομφανήχ· καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτῷ τὴν Ἀσεννὲθ θυγατέρα Πετεφρῆ ἱερέως Ἡλιουπόλεως αὐτῷ εἰς γυναῖκα.
BSB
BSB:
Pharaoh gave Joseph the name Zaphenath-paneah, and he gave him Asenath daughter of Potiphera, priest of On, to be his wife. And Joseph took charge of all the land of Egypt.
46
LXX
Ἰωσὴφ δὲ ἦν ἐτῶν τριάκοντα, ὅτε ἔστη ἐναντίον Φαραὼ βασιλέως Αἰγύπτου. Ἐξῆλθε δὲ Ἰωσὴφ ἀπὸ προσώπου Φαραώ, καὶ διῆλθε πᾶσαν γῆν Αἰγύπτου.
BSB
BSB:
Now Joseph was thirty years old when he entered the service of Pharaoh king of Egypt. And Joseph left Pharaoh’s presence and traveled throughout the land of Egypt.
47
LXX
καὶ ἐποίησεν ἡ γῆ ἐν τοῖς ἑπτὰ ἔτεσι τῆς εὐθηνίας δράγματα·
BSB
BSB:
During the seven years of abundance, the land brought forth bountifully.
48
LXX
καὶ συνήγαγε πάντα τὰ βρώματα τῶν ἑπτὰ ἐτῶν, ἐν οἷς ἦν ἡ εὐθυνία ἐν τῇ γῇ Αἰγύπτου, καὶ ἔθηκε τὰ βρώματα ἐν ταῖς πόλεσι, βρώματα τῶν πεδίων τῆς πόλεως τῶν κύκλῳ αὐτῆς ἔθηκεν ἐν αὐτῇ.
BSB
BSB:
During those seven years, Joseph collected all the excess food in the land of Egypt and stored it in the cities. In every city he laid up the food from the fields around it.
49
LXX
καὶ συνήγαγεν Ἰωσὴφ σῖτον ὡσεὶ τὴν ἄμμον τῆς θαλάσσης πολὺν σφόδρα, ἕως οὐκ ἠδύνατο ἀριθμηθῆναι, οὐ γὰρ ἦν ἀριθμός.
BSB
BSB:
So Joseph stored up grain in such abundance, like the sand of the sea, that he stopped keeping track of it; for it was beyond measure.
50
LXX
Τῷ δὲ Ἰωσὴφ ἐγένοντο υἱοὶ δύο πρὸ τοῦ ἐλθεῖν τὰ ἑπτὰ ἔτη τοῦ λιμοῦ, οὓς ἔτεκεν αὐτῷ Ἀσεννὲθ ἡ θυγάτηρ Πετεφρῆ ἱερέως Ἡλιουπόλεως.
BSB
BSB:
Before the years of famine arrived, two sons were born to Joseph by Asenath daughter of Potiphera, priest of On.
51
LXX
ἐκάλεσε δὲ Ἰωσὴφ τὸ ὄνομα τοῦ πρωτοτόκου Μανασσῆ, ὅτι ἐπιλαθέσθαι με ἐποίησεν ὁ Θεὸς πάντων τῶν πόνων μου καὶ πάντων τῶν τοῦ πατρός μου.
BSB
BSB:
Joseph named the firstborn Manasseh, saying, “God has made me forget all my hardship and all my father’s household.”
52
LXX
τὸ δὲ ὄνομα τοῦ δευτέρου ἐκάλεσεν Ἐφραΐμ, ὅτι ηὔξησέ με ὁ Θεὸς ἐν γῇ ταπεινώσεώς μου.
BSB
BSB:
And the second son he named Ephraim, saying, “God has made me fruitful in the land of my affliction.”
53
LXX
Παρῆλθε δὲ τὰ ἑπτὰ ἔτη τῆς εὐθηνίας, ἃ ἐγένοντο ἐν τῇ γῇ Αἰγύπτου,
BSB
BSB:
When the seven years of abundance in the land of Egypt came to an end,
54
LXX
καὶ ἤρξατο τὰ ἑπτὰ ἔτη τοῦ λιμοῦ ἔρχεσθαι, καθὰ εἶπεν Ἰωσήφ. καὶ ἐγένετο λιμὸς ἐν πάσῃ τῇ γῇ, ἐν δὲ πάσῃ τῇ γῇ Αἰγύπτου ἦσαν ἄρτοι.
BSB
BSB:
the seven years of famine began, just as Joseph had said. And although there was famine in every country, there was food throughout the land of Egypt.
55
LXX
καὶ ἐπείνασε πᾶσα ἡ γῆ Αἰγύπτου, ἔκραξε δὲ ὁ λαὸς πρὸς Φαραὼ περὶ ἄρτων· εἶπε δὲ Φαραὼ πᾶσι τοῖς Αἰγυπτίοις· πορεύεσθε πρὸς Ἰωσήφ, καὶ ὃ ἐὰν εἴπῃ ὑμῖν, ποιήσατε.
BSB
BSB:
When extreme hunger came to all the land of Egypt and the people cried out to Pharaoh for food, he told all the Egyptians, “Go to Joseph and do whatever he tells you.”
56
LXX
καὶ ὁ λιμὸς ἦν ἐπὶ προσώπου πάσης τῆς γῆς· ἀνέῳξε δὲ Ἰωσὴφ πάντας τοὺς σιτοβολῶνας καὶ ἐπώλει πᾶσι τοῖς Αἰγυπτίοις.
BSB
BSB:
When the famine had spread over all the land, Joseph opened up all the storehouses and sold grain to the Egyptians; for the famine was severe in the land of Egypt.
57
LXX
καὶ πᾶσαι αἱ χῶραι ἦλθον εἰς Αἴγυπτον ἀγοράζειν πρὸς Ἰωσήφ· ἐπεκράτησε γὰρ ὁ λιμὸς ἐν πάσῃ τῇ γῇ.
BSB
BSB:
And every nation came to Joseph in Egypt to buy grain, because the famine was severe over all the earth.
