Genesis 47:19

Why should we mawath (death) before your iyan (eye), both we and our adamah (land)? Qanah (buy) us and our adamah (land) for lacham (bread), and we and our adamah (land) will be ibadayam (servants) to Paraih (Pharaoh). Nathan (give) us zarai (seed), that we may chayah (live), and not mawath (death), and that the adamah (land) won't be yasham (desolate).”
