1 And it came to pass at the end * h7093 of two full * h3117 years * h8141, that Pharaoh * h6547 dreamed * h2492 h8802: and, behold, he stood * h5975 h8802 by the river * h2975.
2 And, behold, there came up * h5927 h8802 out of the river * h2975 seven * h7651 well * h3303 favoured * h4758 kine * h6510 and fatfleshed * h1277 * h1320; and they fed * h7462 h8799 in a meadow * h260.
3 And, behold, seven * h7651 other * h312 kine * h6510 came up * h5927 h8802 after them * h310 out of the river * h2975, ill * h7451 favoured * h4758 and leanfleshed * h1851 * h1320; and stood * h5975 h8799 by * h681 the other kine * h6510 upon the brink * h8193 of the river * h2975.
4 And the ill * h7451 favoured * h4758 and leanfleshed * h1851 * h1320 kine * h6510 did eat up * h398 h8799 the seven * h7651 well * h3303 favoured * h4758 and fat * h1277 kine * h6510. So Pharaoh * h6547 awoke * h3364 h8799.
5 And he slept * h3462 h8799 and dreamed * h2492 h8799 the second time * h8145: and, behold, seven * h7651 ears of corn * h7641 came up * h5927 h8802 upon one * h259 stalk * h7070, rank * h1277 and good * h2896. rank: Heb. fat
6 And, behold, seven * h7651 thin * h1851 ears * h7641 and blasted * h7710 h8803 with the east wind * h6921 sprung up * h6779 h8802 after them * h310.
7 And the seven thin * h1851 ears * h7641 devoured * h1104 h8799 the seven * h7651 rank * h1277 and full * h4392 ears * h7641. And Pharaoh * h6547 awoke * h3364 h8799, and, behold, it was a dream * h2472.
8 And it came to pass in the morning * h1242 that his spirit * h7307 was troubled * h6470 h8735; and he sent * h7971 h8799 and called * h7121 h8799 for all the magicians * h2748 of Egypt * h4714, and all the wise men * h2450 thereof: and Pharaoh * h6547 told * h5608 h8762 them his dream * h2472; but there was none that could interpret * h6622 h8802 them unto Pharaoh * h6547.
9 Then spake * h1696 h8762 the chief * h8269 butler * h8248 h8688 unto Pharaoh * h6547, saying * h559 h8800, I do remember * h2142 h8688 my faults * h2399 this day * h3117:
10 Pharaoh * h6547 was wroth * h7107 h8804 with his servants * h5650, and put * h5414 h8799 me in ward * h4929 in the captain * h8269 of the guard's * h2876 house * h1004, both me and the chief * h8269 baker * h644 h8802:
11 And we dreamed * h2492 h8799 a dream * h2472 in one * h259 night * h3915, I and he; we dreamed * h2492 h8804 each man * h376 according to the interpretation * h6623 of his dream * h2472.
12 And there was there with us a young man * h5288, an Hebrew * h5680, servant * h5650 to the captain * h8269 of the guard * h2876; and we told * h5608 h8762 him, and he interpreted * h6622 h8799 to us our dreams * h2472; to each man * h376 according to his dream * h2472 he did interpret * h6622 h8804.
13 And it came to pass, as he interpreted * h6622 h8804 to us, so it was; me he restored * h7725 h8689 unto mine office * h3653, and him he hanged * h8518 h8804.
14 Then Pharaoh * h6547 sent * h7971 h8799 and called * h7121 h8799 Joseph * h3130, and they brought him hastily * h7323 h8686 out of the dungeon * h953: and he shaved * h1548 h8762 himself , and changed * h2498 h8762 his raiment * h8071, and came in * h935 h8804 unto Pharaoh * h6547. brought...: Heb. made him run
15 And Pharaoh * h6547 said * h559 h8799 unto Joseph * h3130, I have dreamed * h2492 h8804 a dream * h2472, and there is none that can interpret * h6622 h8802 it: and I have heard * h8085 h8804 say * h559 h8800 of thee, that thou canst understand * h8085 h8799 a dream * h2472 to interpret * h6622 h8800 it. thou...: or, when thou hearest a dream thou canst interpret it
16 And Joseph * h3130 answered * h6030 h8799 Pharaoh * h6547, saying * h559 h8800, It is not in me * h1107: God * h430 shall give * h6030 Pharaoh * h6547 an answer * h6030 h8799 of peace * h7965.
17 And Pharaoh * h6547 said * h1696 h8762 unto Joseph * h3130, In my dream * h2472, behold, I stood * h5975 h8802 upon the bank * h8193 of the river * h2975:
18 And, behold, there came up * h5927 h8802 out of the river * h2975 seven * h7651 kine * h6510, fatfleshed * h1277 * h1320 and well * h3303 favoured * h8389; and they fed * h7462 h8799 in a meadow * h260:
19 And, behold, seven * h7651 other * h312 kine * h6510 came up * h5927 h8802 after them * h310, poor * h1803 and very * h3966 ill * h7451 favoured * h8389 and leanfleshed * h7534 * h1320, such * h2007 as I never * h3808 saw * h7200 h8804 in all the land * h776 of Egypt * h4714 for badness * h7455:
20 And the lean * h7534 and the ill favoured * h7451 kine * h6510 did eat up * h398 h8799 the first * h7223 seven * h7651 fat * h1277 kine * h6510:
21 And when they had eaten them up * h935 h8799 * h7130, it could not be known * h3045 h8738 that they had eaten them * h935 h8804 * h7130; but they were still * h4758 ill favoured * h7451, as at the beginning * h8462. So I awoke * h3364 h8799. eaten...: Heb. come to the inward parts of them
22 And I saw * h7200 h8799 in my dream * h2472, and, behold, seven * h7651 ears * h7641 came up * h5927 h8802 in one * h259 stalk * h7070, full * h4392 and good * h2896:
23 And, behold, seven * h7651 ears * h7641, withered * h6798 h8803, thin * h1851, and blasted * h7710 h8803 with the east wind * h6921, sprung up * h6779 h8802 after them * h310: withered: or, small
24 And the thin * h1851 ears * h7641 devoured * h1104 h8799 the seven * h7651 good * h2896 ears * h7641: and I told * h559 h8799 this unto the magicians * h2748; but there was none that could declare * h5046 h8688 it to me.
25 And Joseph * h3130 said * h559 h8799 unto Pharaoh * h6547, The dream * h2472 of Pharaoh * h6547 is one * h259: God * h430 hath shewed * h5046 h8689 Pharaoh * h6547 what he is about to do * h6213 h8802.
26 The seven * h7651 good * h2896 kine * h6510 are seven * h7651 years * h8141; and the seven * h7651 good * h2896 ears * h7641 are seven * h7651 years * h8141: the dream * h2472 is one * h259.
27 And the seven * h7651 thin * h7534 and ill favoured * h7451 kine * h6510 that came up * h5927 h8802 after them * h310 are seven * h7651 years * h8141; and the seven * h7651 empty * h7386 ears * h7641 blasted * h7710 h8803 with the east wind * h6921 shall be seven * h7651 years * h8141 of famine * h7458.
28 This is the thing * h1697 which I have spoken * h1696 h8765 unto Pharaoh * h6547: What God * h430 is about to do * h6213 h8802 he sheweth * h7200 h8689 unto Pharaoh * h6547.
29 Behold, there come * h935 h8802 seven * h7651 years * h8141 of great * h1419 plenty * h7647 throughout all the land * h776 of Egypt * h4714:
30 And there shall arise * h6965 h8804 after them * h310 seven * h7651 years * h8141 of famine * h7458; and all the plenty * h7647 shall be forgotten * h7911 h8738 in the land * h776 of Egypt * h4714; and the famine * h7458 shall consume * h3615 h8765 the land * h776;
31 And the plenty * h7647 shall not be known * h3045 h8735 in the land * h776 by reason * h6440 of that famine * h7458 following * h310 * h3651; for it shall be very * h3966 grievous * h3515. grievous: Heb. heavy
32 And for that the dream * h2472 was doubled * h8138 h8736 unto Pharaoh * h6547 twice * h6471; it is because the thing * h1697 is established * h3559 h8737 by * h5973 God * h430, and God * h430 will shortly * h4116 h8764 bring it to pass * h6213 h8800. established...: or, prepared of God
33 Now therefore let Pharaoh * h6547 look out * h7200 h8799 a man * h376 discreet * h995 h8737 and wise * h2450, and set * h7896 h8799 him over the land * h776 of Egypt * h4714.
34 Let Pharaoh * h6547 do * h6213 h8799 this , and let him appoint * h6485 h8686 officers * h6496 over the land * h776, and take up the fifth part * h2567 h8765 of the land * h776 of Egypt * h4714 in the seven * h7651 plenteous * h7647 years * h8141. officers: or, overseers
35 And let them gather * h6908 h8799 all the food * h400 of those good * h2896 years * h8141 that come * h935 h8802, and lay up * h6651 h8799 corn * h1250 under the hand * h3027 of Pharaoh * h6547, and let them keep * h8104 h8804 food * h400 in the cities * h5892.
36 And that food * h400 shall be for store * h6487 to the land * h776 against the seven * h7651 years * h8141 of famine * h7458, which shall be in the land * h776 of Egypt * h4714; that the land * h776 perish * h3772 h8735 not through the famine * h7458. perish...: Heb. be not cut off
37 And the thing * h1697 was good * h3190 h8799 in the eyes * h5869 of Pharaoh * h6547, and in the eyes * h5869 of all his servants * h5650.
38 And Pharaoh * h6547 said * h559 h8799 unto his servants * h5650, Can we find * h4672 h8799 such a one as this * h2088 is , a man * h376 in whom * h834 the Spirit * h7307 of God * h430 is ?
39 And Pharaoh * h6547 said * h559 h8799 unto Joseph * h3130, Forasmuch * h310 as God * h430 hath shewed * h3045 h8687 thee all this, there is none so discreet * h995 h8737 and wise * h2450 as thou art :
40 Thou shalt be * h1961 h8799 over my house * h1004, and according unto thy word * h6310 shall all my people * h5971 be ruled * h5401 h8799: only in the throne * h3678 will I be greater * h1431 h8799 than thou. be ruled: Heb. be armed, or, kiss
41 And Pharaoh * h6547 said * h559 h8799 unto Joseph * h3130, See * h7200 h8798, I have set * h5414 h8804 thee over all the land * h776 of Egypt * h4714.
42 And Pharaoh * h6547 took off * h5493 h8686 his ring * h2885 from his hand * h3027, and put * h5414 h8799 it upon Joseph's * h3130 hand * h3027, and arrayed * h3847 h8686 him in vestures * h899 of fine linen * h8336, and put * h7760 h8799 a gold * h2091 chain * h7242 about his neck * h6677; fine...: or, silk
43 And he made him to ride * h7392 h8686 in the second * h4932 chariot * h4818 which he had; and they cried * h7121 h8799 before him * h6440, Bow the knee * h86: and he made * h5414 h8800 him ruler over all the land * h776 of Egypt * h4714. Bow...: or, Tender father: Heb. Abrech
44 And Pharaoh * h6547 said * h559 h8799 unto Joseph * h3130, I am Pharaoh * h6547, and without * h1107 thee shall no man * h376 lift up * h7311 h8686 his hand * h3027 or foot * h7272 in all the land * h776 of Egypt * h4714.
45 And Pharaoh * h6547 called * h7121 h8799 Joseph's * h3130 name * h8034 Zaphnathpaaneah * h6847; and he gave * h5414 h8799 him to wife * h802 Asenath * h621 the daughter * h1323 of Potipherah * h6319 priest * h3548 of On * h204. And Joseph * h3130 went out * h3318 h8799 over all the land * h776 of Egypt * h4714. Zaphnathpaaneah: which in the Coptic signifies, A revealer of secrets, or, The man to whom secrets are revealed priest: or, prince
46 And Joseph * h3130 was thirty * h7970 years * h8141 old * h1121 when he stood * h5975 h8800 before * h6440 Pharaoh * h6547 king * h4428 of Egypt * h4714. And Joseph * h3130 went out * h3318 h8799 from the presence * h6440 of Pharaoh * h6547, and went throughout * h5674 h8799 all the land * h776 of Egypt * h4714.
47 And in the seven * h7651 plenteous * h7647 years * h8141 the earth * h776 brought forth * h6213 h8799 by handfuls * h7062.
48 And he gathered up * h6908 h8799 all the food * h400 of the seven * h7651 years * h8141, which were in the land * h776 of Egypt * h4714, and laid up * h5414 h8799 the food * h400 in the cities * h5892: the food * h400 of the field * h7704, which was round about * h5439 every city * h5892, laid he up * h5414 h8804 in the same * h8432.
49 And Joseph * h3130 gathered * h6651 h8799 corn * h1250 as the sand * h2344 of the sea * h3220, very * h3966 much * h7235 h8687, until he left * h2308 h8804 numbering * h5608 h8800; for it was without * h369 number * h4557.
50 And unto Joseph * h3130 were born * h3205 h8795 two * h8147 sons * h1121 before the years * h8141 of famine * h7458 came * h935 h8799, which Asenath * h621 the daughter * h1323 of Potipherah * h6319 priest * h3548 of On * h204 bare * h3205 h8804 unto him. priest: or, prince

53 And the seven * h7651 years * h8141 of plenteousness * h7647, that was in the land * h776 of Egypt * h4714, were ended *
