And Joseph went and told Pharaoh and said: my father and my brethren their sheep and their beasts and all that they have / are come out of the land of Canaan and are in the land of Gosan. And Joseph toke a part of his brethren: even five of them / and presented them unto Pharaoh. And Pharaoh said unto his brethren: what is your occupation? And they said unto Pharaoh: seaders of sheep are thy servants / both we and also our fathers. They said moreover unto Pharaoh: ⟨image 80⟩for to sojourn in the land are we come / for thy servants have no pasture for their sheep so sore is the famishment in the land of Canaan. Now therefore let thy servants dwell in the land of Gosan.

They sayde moreouer vnto Pharao: ⟨image 80⟩for to sogeorne in the lande are we come / for thy seruauntes haue no pasture for their shepe so sore is the fameshment in the lande of Canaan. Now therfore let thy seruauntes dwell in the lande of Gosan.
