Jasher 50 — Ephraim and Manasseh, the Famine, and the System to Find the Brothers

Book of Jasher · Restored Names Edition · first paragraph

1At that time the children of Tarshish came against the sons of Ishmael, and made war with them, and the children of Tarshish spoiled the Ishmaelites for a long time.

2And the children of Ishmael were small in number in those days, and they could not prevail over the children of Tarshish, and they were sorely oppressed.

3And the old men of the Ishmaelites sent a record to the king of Egypt, saying, Send I pray you to your servants officers and hosts to help us to fight against the children of Tarshish, for we have been consuming away for a long time.

That is the first paragraph of Jasher 50
