Genesis 41
1 And it came to pass after two full years that Pharao had a dream. He thought he stood upon [the bank of] the river.
And it was from [the] end of two years days and Pharaoh [was] dreaming and there! [he was] standing at the River.
2 And behold, there came up as it were out of the river seven cows, fair in appearance, and choice of flesh, and they fed on the sedge.
And there! from the River [were] coming up seven cows good looking of appearance and fat of flesh and they grazed among the reed[s].
3 And other seven cows came up after these out of the river, ill-favoured and lean-fleshed, and fed by the [other] cows on the bank of the river.
And there! seven cows another [were] coming up after them from the River displeasing of appearance and thin of flesh and they stood beside the cows on [the] bank of the River.
4 And the seven ill-favoured and lean cows devoured the seven well-favoured and choice-fleshed cows; and Pharao awoke.
And they ate the cows displeasing of appearance and [the] thin of flesh seven the cows good looking of appearance and fat and he awoke Pharaoh.
5 And he dreamed again. And, behold, seven ears came up on one stalk, choice and good.
And he slept and he dreamed a second [time] and there! - seven ears of grain [were] coming up on a stalk one fat and good.
6 And, behold, seven ears thin and blasted with the wind, grew up after them.
And there! seven ears of grain thin and scorched of an east wind [were] springing up after them.
7 And the seven thin ears and blasted with the wind devoured the seven choice and full ears; and Pharao awoke, and it was a dream.
And they swallowed the ears of grain thin seven the ears of grain fat and full and he awoke Pharaoh and there! a dream.
8 And it was morning, and his soul was troubled; and he sent and called all the interpreters of Egypt, and all her wise men; and Pharao related to them his dream, and there was no one to interpret it to Pharao.
And it was in the morning and it was troubled spirit his and he sent and he summoned all [the] diviner priests of Egypt and all wise [men] its and he recounted Pharaoh to them dream his and there not [was one who] interpreted them for Pharaoh.
9 And the chief cupbearer spoke to Pharao, saying, I this day remember my fault:
And he spoke [the] chief of the cup bearers with Pharaoh saying sins my I [am] bringing to remembrance this day.
10 Pharao was angry with his servants, and put us in prison in the house of the captain of the guard, both me and the chief baker.
Pharaoh he was angry towards servants his and he put me in [the] custody of [the] house of [the] commander of the bodyguards me and [the] chief of the bakers.
11 And we had a dream both in one night, I and he; we saw, each according to his dream.
And we dreamed! a dream in a night one I and he each according to [the] interpretation of dream his we dreamed.
12 And there was there with us a young man, a Hebrew servant of the captain of the guard; and we related to him [our dreams], and he interpreted [them] to us.
And [was] there with us a young man a Hebrew a slave of [the] commander of the bodyguards and we recounted to him and he interpreted for us dreams our each according to dream his he interpreted.
13 And it came to pass, as he interpreted them to us, so also it happened, both that I was restored to my office, and that he was hanged.
And it was just as he interpreted for us so it was me he restored to office my and him he hanged.
14 And Pharao having sent, called Joseph; and they brought him out from the prison, and shaved him, and changed his dress, and he came to Pharao.
And he sent Pharaoh and he summoned Joseph and people brought quickly him from the pit and he shaved and he changed clothes his and he came to Pharaoh.
15 And Pharao said to Joseph, I have seen a vision, and there is no one to interpret it; but I have heard say concerning you that you did hear dreams and interpret them.
And he said Pharaoh to Joseph a dream I have dreamed and [is one who] interprets there not it and I I have heard on you saying you hear a dream to interpret it.
16 And Joseph answered Pharao and said, Without God an answer of safety shall not be given to Pharao.
And he answered Joseph Pharaoh saying apart from me God he will answer [the] welfare of Pharaoh.
17 And Pharao spoke to Joseph, saying, In my dream I thought I stood by the bank of the river;
And he spoke Pharaoh to Joseph in dream my if [was] I standing on [the] bank of the River.
18 and there came up as it were out of the river, seven cows well-favoured and choice-fleshed, and they fed on the sedge.
And there! from the River [were] coming up seven cows fat of flesh and good looking of form and they grazed among the reed[s].
19 And behold seven other cows came up after them out of the river, evil and ill-favoured and lean-fleshed, such that I never saw worse in all the land of Egypt.
And there! seven cows another [were] coming up after them weak and displeasing of form very and thin of flesh not I have seen like them in all [the] land of Egypt to badness.
20 And the seven ill-favoured and thin cows ate up the seven first good and choice cows.
And they ate the cows thin and displeasing seven the cows former fat.
21 And they went into their bellies; and it was not perceptible that they had gone into their bellies, and their appearance was ill-favoured, as also at the beginning; and after I awoke I slept,
And they went into inward part[s] their and not it was known that they had gone into inward part[s] their and appearance their [was] displeasing just as at the beginning and I awoke.
22 and saw again in my sleep, and as it were seven ears came up on one stem, full and good.
And I saw in dream my and there! - seven ears of grain [were] coming up on a stalk one full and good.
23 And other seven ears, thin and blasted with the wind, sprang up close to them.
And there! seven ears of grain withered thin scorched of an east wind [were] springing up after them.
24 And the seven thin and blasted ears devoured the seven fine and full ears: so I spoke to the interpreters, and there was no one to explain it to me.
And they swallowed the ears of grain thin seven the ears of grain good and I said to the diviner priests and there not [was one who] told to me.
25 And Joseph said to Pharao, The dream of Pharao is one; whatever God does, he has shown to Pharao.
And he said Joseph to Pharaoh [the] dream of Pharaoh [is] one it [that] which God [is] about to do he has told to Pharaoh.
26 The seven good cows are seven years, and the seven good ears are seven years; the dream of Pharao is one.
Seven cows good [are] seven years they and seven the ears of grain good [are] seven years they [is] dream one it.
27 And the seven thin kine that came up after them are seven years; and the seven thin and blasted ears are seven years; there shall be seven years of famine.
And seven the cows thin and displeasing that were coming up after them [are] seven years they and seven the ears of grain empty scorched of the east wind they will be seven years of famine.
28 And as for the word which I have told Pharao, whatever God intends to do, he has shown to Pharao:
That [is] the word which I spoke to Pharaoh [that] which God [is] about to do he has shown Pharaoh.
29 behold, for seven years there is coming great plenty in all the land of Egypt.
There! seven years [are] about to come plenty great [will be] in all [the] land of Egypt.
30 But there shall come seven years of famine after these, and they shall forget the plenty that shall be in all Egypt, and the famine shall consume the land.
And they will arise seven years of famine after them and it will be forgotten all the plenty in [the] land of Egypt and it will destroy the famine the land.
31 And the plenty shall not be known in the land by reason of the famine that shall be after this, for it shall be very grievous.
And not it will be known the plenty in the land because of the famine that after thus for [will be] heavy it very.
32 And concerning the repetition of the dream to Pharao twice, [it is] because the saying which is from God shall be true, and God will hasten to accomplish it.
And on [the] being repeated of the dream to Pharaoh two times for [is] certain the matter from with God and [is] hurrying God to do it.
33 Now then, look out a wise and prudent man, and set him over the land of Egypt.
And therefore let him see Pharaoh a man discerning and wise and let him set him over [the] land of Egypt.
34 And let Pharao make and appoint local governors over the land; and let them take up a fifth part of all the produce of the land of Egypt for the seven years of the plenty.
Let him act Pharaoh and let him appoint overseers over the land and he will take a fifth of [the] land of Egypt in seven [the] years of plenty.
35 And let them gather all the food of these seven good years that are coming, and let the corn be gathered under the hand of Pharao; let food be kept in the cities.
And let them gather all [the] food of the years good that are coming these and let them store up grain under [the] hand of Pharaoh food in the cities and they will keep [it].
36 And the stored food shall be for the land against the seven years of famine, which shall be in the land of Egypt; and the land shall not be utterly destroyed by the famine.
And it will become the food a store for the land for seven [the] years of famine which they will be in [the] land of Egypt and not it will be cut off the land by the famine.
37 And the word was pleasing in the sight of Pharao, and in the sight of all his servants.
And it was good the word in [the] eyes of Pharaoh and in [the] eyes of all servants his.
38 And Pharao said to all his servants, Shall we find such a man as this, who has the Spirit of God in him?
And he said Pharaoh to servants his ¿ has he been found like this one a man whom [the] spirit of God [is] in him.
39 And Pharao said to Joseph, Since God has showed you all these things, there is not a wiser or more prudent man than you.
And he said Pharaoh to Joseph after has made know God you all this there not [is] a discerning [person] and a wise [person] like you.
40 You shall be over my house, and all my people shall be obedient to your word; only in the throne will I excel you.
You you will be over house my and on mouth your it will kiss all people my only the throne I will be great more than you.
41 And Pharao said to Joseph, Behold, I set you this day over all the land of Egypt.
And he said Pharaoh to Joseph see I set you over all [the] land of Egypt.
42 And Pharao took his ring off his hand, and put it on the hand of Joseph, and put on him a robe of fine linen, and put a necklace of gold about his neck.
And he removed Pharaoh signet-ring his from on hand his and he set it on [the] hand of Joseph and he clothed him clothes of fine linen and he put [the] chain of gold on neck his.
43 And he mounted him on the second of his chariots, and a herald made proclamation before him; and he set him over all the land of Egypt.
And he made ride him in [the] chariot of the second which [belonged] to him and they called out before him bend [the] knee and he put him over all [the] land of Egypt.
44 And Pharao said to Joseph, I am Pharao; without you no one shall lift up his hand on all the land of Egypt.
And he said Pharaoh to Joseph I [am] Pharaoh and apart from you not he will lift up anyone hand his and foot his in all [the] land of Egypt.
45 And Pharao called the name of Joseph, Psonthomphanech; and he gave him Aseneth, the daughter of Petephres, priest of Heliopolis, to wife.
And he called Pharaoh [the] name of Joseph Zaphenath-Paneah and he gave to him Asenath [the] daughter of Poti-phera [the] priest of On to a wife and he went out Joseph over [the] land of Egypt.
46 And Joseph was thirty years old when he stood before Pharao, king of Egypt. And Joseph went out from the presence of Pharao, and went through all the land of Egypt.
And Joseph [was] a son of thirty year[s] when stood he before Pharaoh [the] king of Egypt and he went out Joseph from to before Pharaoh and he passed in all [the] land of Egypt.
47 And the land produced, in the seven years of plenty, [whole] handfuls [of corn].
And it produced the land in seven [the] years of plenty to handfuls.
48 And he gathered all the food of the seven years, in which was the plenty in the land of Egypt; and he laid up the food in the cities; the food of the fields of a city round about it he laid up in it.
And he gathered all [the] food of - seven [the] years which they were in [the] land of Egypt and he put food in the cities [the] food of [the] field[s] of the city which [was] around it he put in [the] midst of it.
49 And Joseph gathered very much corn as the sand of the sea, until it could not be numbered, for there was no number [of it].
And he stored up Joseph grain like [the] sand of the sea much very until that he ceased to measure [it] for there not [was] a measure.
50 And to Joseph were born two sons, before the seven years of famine came, which Aseneth, the daughter of Petephres, priest of Heliopolis, bore to him.
And to Joseph it was born two sons before it came [the] year of famine whom she bore to him Asenath [the] daughter of Poti-phera [the] priest of On.
51 And Joseph called the name of the firstborn, Manasse; for God, [said he], has made me forget all my toils, and all my father's house.
And he called Joseph [the] name of the firstborn Manasseh for he has made forget me God all trouble my and all [the] household of father my.
52 And he called the name of the second, Ephraim; for God, [said he], has increased me in the land of my humiliation.
And [the] name of the second he called Ephraim for he has made fruitful me God in [the] land of affliction my.
53 And the seven years of plenty passed away, which were in the land of Egypt.
And they came to an end seven [the] years of plenty which it was in [the] land of Egypt.
54 And the seven years of famine began to come, as Joseph said; and there was a famine in all the land; but in all the land of Egypt there was bread.
And they began seven [the] years of famine to come just as he had said Joseph and it was a famine in all the lands and in all [the] land of Egypt it was food.
55 And all the land of Egypt was hungry; and the people cried to Pharao for bread. And Pharao said to all the Egyptians, Go to Joseph, and do whatever he shall tell you.
And it was hungry all [the] land of Egypt and it cried out the people to Pharaoh for food and he said Pharaoh to all Egypt go to Joseph [that] which he will say to you you will do.
56 And the famine was on the face of all the earth; and Joseph opened all the granaries, and sold to all the Egyptians.
And the famine it was over all [the] face of the land and he opened Joseph all that [was] in them and he bought grain to Egypt and it was severe the famine in [the] land of Egypt.
57 And all countries came to Egypt to buy of Joseph, for the famine prevailed in all the earth.
And all the earth they came Egypt towards to buy grain to Joseph for it was severe the famine in all the earth.
