KJV - Genesis 47:19

Wherefore shall we die before thine eyes, both we and our land? buy us and our land for bread, and we and our land will be servants unto Pharaoh: and give us seed, that we may live, and not die, that the land be not desolate.

Why must we die in front of you, along with our land? Buy our land and us so we become servants to Pharaoh, and provide us with seed to grow food, so we can live and not die, and keep the land from being empty.
