So he gathered up all the food of the seven years which was in the land of Egypt and laid up the food in the cities. He put in every city the food of the fields which surrounded the city.
In the seven abundant years the earth brought forth plentifully.
Joseph gathered great quantities of grain as the sand of the sea until he stopped measuring it, for it was beyond measure.
As for the people, he removed them to cities from one end of the borders of Egypt to the other end.
