1 And it comes to pass, at the end of two years of days that Pharaoh is dreaming, and behold, he is standing by 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, from the River coming up are seven cows, of beautiful appearance, and fat [in] flesh, and they feed among the reeds;
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 behold, seven other cows are coming up after them out of the River, of bad appearance, and lean [in] flesh, and they stand near the cows on the edge 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 cows of bad appearance and lean [in] flesh eat up the seven cows of beautiful appearance, and fat—and Pharaoh awakens.
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 sleeps, and dreams a second time, and behold, seven ears are coming up on one stalk, fat 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 an east wind, are springing up after them;
And there! seven ears of grain thin and scorched of an east wind [were] springing up after them.
7 and the thin ears swallow the seven fat and full ears—and Pharaoh awakens, and behold, 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 comes to pass in the morning, that his spirit is moved, and he sends and calls all the enchanters of Egypt, and all its wise men, and Pharaoh recounts to them his dream, and there is no interpreter of them to Pharaoh.
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 of the butlers speaks with Pharaoh, saying, “I mention my sin this day:
And he spoke [the] chief of the cup bearers with Pharaoh saying sins my I [am] bringing to remembrance this day.
10 Pharaoh has been angry against his servants, and puts me in confinement in the house of the chief of the executioners, me and the chief of the bakers;
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 dream a dream in one night, I and he, each according to the interpretation of his dream we have dreamed.
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 [is] with us a youth, a Hebrew, servant to the chief of the executioners, and we recount to him, and he interprets to us our dreams, [to] each according to his dream has he interpreted,
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 comes to pass, as he has interpreted to us so it has been, me he put back on my station, and him he 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 Pharaoh sends and calls Joseph, and they cause him to run out of the pit, and he shaves, and changes his garments, and comes to Pharaoh.
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 Pharaoh says to Joseph, “I have dreamed a dream, and there is no interpreter of it, and I have heard concerning you, saying, You understand a dream to interpret it,”
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 answers Pharaoh, saying, “Without me—God answers Pharaoh with peace.”
And he answered Joseph Pharaoh saying apart from me God he will answer [the] welfare of Pharaoh.
17 And Pharaoh speaks to Joseph: “In my dream, behold, I am standing by the edge of the River,
And he spoke Pharaoh to Joseph in dream my if [was] I standing on [the] bank of the River.
18 and behold, out of the River coming up are seven cows, fat [in] flesh, and of beautiful form, and they feed among the reeds;
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 are coming up after them, thin, and of very bad form, and lean [in] flesh; I have not seen like these in all the land of Egypt for badness.
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 lean and the bad cows eat up the first seven fat cows,
And they ate the cows thin and displeasing seven the cows former fat.
21 and they come in to their midst, and it has not been known that they have come in to their midst, and their appearance [is] bad as at the commencement; and I awake.
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 I see in my dream, and behold, seven ears are coming up on one stalk, 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 behold, seven ears, withered, thin, blasted with an east wind, are springing up after them;
And there! seven ears of grain withered thin scorched of an east wind [were] springing up after them.
24 and the thin ears swallow the seven good ears; and I tell [it] to the enchanters, and there is none declaring [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 says to Pharaoh, “The dream of Pharaoh is one: that which God is doing he has declared to Pharaoh;
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 is one;

28 this [is] the thing which I have spoken to Pharaoh: God has shown Pharaoh what He is doing.
That [is] the word which I spoke to Pharaoh [that] which God [is] about to do he has shown Pharaoh.
29 Behold, seven years are coming of great abundance in all the land of Egypt,
There! seven years [are] about to come plenty great [will be] in all [the] land of Egypt.
30 and seven years of famine have arisen after them, and all the plenty is forgotten in the land of Egypt, and the famine has finished 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 is not known in the land because of that famine afterward, for it [is] 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 because of the repeating of the dream to Pharaoh twice, surely the thing is established by God, and God is hurrying to do 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 And now, let Pharaoh provide a man, intelligent and wise, and set him over the land of Egypt;

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 thing is good in the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes 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 Pharaoh says to his servants, “Do we find like this, a man in whom the Spirit of God [is]?”
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 Pharaoh says to Joseph, “After God’s causing you to know all this, there is none intelligent and wise as you;
