So Joseph settled his father and his brothers in
Egypt
and gave them property in the best part of the land,
the district of Rameses, as Pharaoh directed.
Joseph also provided his father and his brothers
and all his father's household with food,
according to the number of their children.
Then Israel said to Joseph,
"I am about to die,
but God will be with you
and take you back to the land of your fathers.
And to you, as one who is over your brothers,
I give the ridge of land I took from the Amorites
with my sword and my bow."
(Genesis 47:11-12; 48:21-22)
