Buy vs and eke our Land also and giue vs Bread therefore So will we binde our selues and Lande to Pharo euermor● 29. And therefore giue vs Seede to sowe that we ma● liue not dye And that the Land for want of Tilth should not in wast thus lye 30. So Ioseph now bought all the Land of Egipt for the Kinge ▪ And euery Man his Ground had sould and euery other thinge Because the Force of Famins powre them greeuous●y did wrynge 31.

Then Ioseph made it for a Lawe remayninge to this Day That they the fifte parte of encrease should vnto Pharo pay 41. And Israell in Egipt dwelt as you tofore hero tell And in the Countrey of Goshen did Multiply right well 42. For they therein Possessions had and Grew exceedingly And Iacob there liu'de Seuentene Yeres and then dyd after dye 43 An hundreth Forty and Seuen Yeares did Iacob liue in al And so when as the time drew neere that he from Lyfe must fall 44. He called Ioseph vnto him and sayd as doth appeare Thy Hand now put vnder my Thyghe and truly to me sweare 45. If I haue G●ace found in thy sight Deale truly now with mee In Egipt do not Burye mee but where my Fathers ●ee 46. When I shall sl●epe wyth Fathers myne lette me not heere be staid ▪ But carry me and burye me where Fathers myne are layd I wil sayd Ioseph do in al as thou to me hast sayde 47. Sayd Israel then Sweare to me and Ioseph so did Sweare Towards his Beddes head Iacob then both blest and prays'd God there The Contentes of the XLVIII Chapter Here Ioseph now with his two Sonnes doth to his Father goe Iacob Gods promis doth Rehearse and doth Receiue also The sonnes of Ioseph as his owne and doth the yonger blisse Before the elder Sonne whereat theyr Father moued is AGayne it hapned after this that one to Ioseph sayd Thy Father Iacob now is sicke and very ill apayde 2. Then Ioseph did hymselfe prepare his Father for to see And both his Sonnes toke he wyth hym each one in his degree 3 And one to Iacob sayd behold thy sonne is come to thee Then Iacob tooke his strength to him and on his Bedde satte he 4. And Iacob vnto Ioseph said at Luz did God appeere To mee in Land of Canaan and gaue me blessing there 5. And Sayd ●ehold I will thee make so Fru●●tfull in the Land And wil thy Seede so Multiply in Number as the Sand 6. And Likewise will I gyue to thee and to thy Seede also This Land for a Possession to thine for aye to know 7 And as concerning thy two Sonnes which borne are vnto thee In Egipt Land before I came to Egipt thee to see 8 They shal be myne as Ruben is and Simeon are myne But Linage thyne whych thou bee got them after shal be thyne 9. And they after theyr Brethrens names shal called be also As they in theyr Inheritaunce are named where they go 10 Now when that I from Padam came Rahell my wyfe did die Upon my hand in Canan Land as I the way past by 11 One half● Dayes Iourney were not we to come Ephrath vnto But in the Waye I Buried her as best was so to doe 12 Then Israel beheld the Sonnes that Ioseph to hym brought And sayd to hym whose Sonnes are these which after me haue sought 13 Sayd Ioseph then they are my Sonnes whom God gaue here to mee Bryng them to mee I may them blesse for scarsly can I see 14 For why the Eyes of Israel were Dymme and Duske of sight So that he could not wel beholde nor wel discerne the Lighte 15 Then Ioseph caus'd his Sonnes to come Iacob did them imbrace And holding them vpon his knees did Kisse them on the Face 16 To Ioseph then sayd Israel my Sonne I had not thought Thy face for to haue sene and yet God hath me hyther brought 17 And I haue sene thy Seede also vnto my great reioyce Then Ioseph tooke them from his knees and so wyth humble voyce 18 Fel flat on ground and worshipt him and then with his right Hand Toke Ephraim his yonger Sonne and caus'd hym for to stand 19 The left Hand of his Graundsire by Manasseh so brought he With Left hand his gaynst Iacobs right by Byrth in his degree 20 Then Israel his right hand stretcht vpon the yongers head And his left hand acrosse his Right ful wysely forth he led 21 And on Manassehs Head it layed the Elder of the twain● His Handes thus placed on theyr Heads did so acrosse remayne 22 Also he Ioseph blest and sayd the God of fathers myne Beefore whose sight in Reuerent feare they walkte from tyme to tyme 23 I say the God which hath me fed the Dayes of al my life The Angel eke that me pres●●n'de from ill debate and strife 24 The Children blesse and let my name be named on them still Likewise the Name of Fathers mine that they may grow and fill 25 As Fyshe into a multitude amyd the Earth to bee When Ioseph Iacobs right Hand now on Ephraim dyd see It him dysp eased very much and therefore thus dyd hee 26.
