Genesis 47:13-17

There was no food anywhere, for the famine was very severe, so that both Egypt and Kena'an grew weak from hunger.

Yosef collected all the money there was in Egypt and Kena'an in exchange for the grain they bought, and put the money in Pharaoh's treasury.

When all the money in Egypt had been spent, and likewise in Kena'an, all the Egyptians approached Yosef and said, "Give us something to eat, even though we have no money; why should we die before your eyes?"

Yosef replied, "Give me your livestock. If you don't have money, I will give you food in exchange for your livestock."

So they brought Yosef their livestock; and Yosef gave them food in exchange for the horses, flocks, cattle and donkeys -all that year he provided them with food in exchange for all their livestock.
