[5] And Pharaoh  spake  unto Joseph,  saying,  Thy father  and thy brethren  are come  [6] The land  of Egypt  is before thee;  in the best  of the land  thy father  and brethren  to dwell;  in the land  of Goshen  let them dwell:  and if thou knowest  of activity  among them, then make them  rulers  over my cattle.  [7] And Joseph  brought in  Jacob  his father,  and set him  before  Pharaoh:  and Jacob  blessed  Pharaoh.  [8] And Pharaoh  said  unto Jacob,  How  old  [9] And Jacob  said  unto Pharaoh,  The days  of the years  of my pilgrimage  are an hundred  and thirty  years:  few  and evil  have the days  of the years  of my life  been, and have not attained  unto the days  of the years  of the life  of my fathers  in the days  of their pilgrimage.  [10] And Jacob  blessed  Pharaoh,  and went out  from before  Pharaoh.  [11] And Joseph  placed  his father  and his brethren,  them a possession  in the land  of Egypt,  in the best  of the land,  of Rameses,  as Pharaoh  had commanded.
