41After two whole years, Pharaoh dreamed that he was standing by the Nile,H7093H3117H8141H6547H2492H5975H2975 2and behold, there came up out of the Nile seven cows attractive and plump, and they fed in the reed grass.H5927H2975H7651H3303H4758H6510H1277H1320H7462H260 3And behold, seven other cows, ugly and thin, came up out of the Nile after them, and stood by the other cows on the bank of the Nile.H7651H312H6510H5927H310H2975H7451H4758H1851H1320H5975H681H6510H8193H2975 4And the ugly, thin cows ate up the seven attractive, plump cows. And Pharaoh awoke.H7451H4758H1851H1320H6510H398H7651H3303H4758H1277H6510H6547H3364 5And he fell asleep and dreamed a second time. And behold, seven ears of grain, plump and good, were growing on one stalk.H3462H2492H8145H7651H7641H5927H259H7070H1277H2896 6And behold, after them sprouted seven ears, thin and blighted by the east wind.H7651H1851H7641H7710H6921H6779H310 7And the thin ears swallowed up the seven plump, full ears. And Pharaoh awoke, and behold, it was a dream.H1851H7641H1104H7651H1277H4392H7641H6547H3364H2472 8So in the morning his spirit was troubled, and he sent and called for all the magicians of Egypt and all its wise men. Pharaoh told them his dreams, but there was none who could interpret them to Pharaoh.H1242H7307H6470H7971H7121H2748H4714H2450H6547H5608H2472H6622H6547 9Then the chief cupbearer said to Pharaoh, "I remember my offenses today.H1696H8269H8248H6547H559H2142H2399H3117 10When Pharaoh was angry with his servants and put me and the chief baker in custody in the house of the captain of the guard,H6547H7107H5650H5414H4929H8269H2876H1004H8269H644 11we dreamed on the same night, he and I, each having a dream with its own interpretation.H2492H2472H259H3915H2492H376H6623H2472 12A young Hebrew was there with us, a servant of the captain of the guard. When we told him, he interpreted our dreams to us, giving an interpretation to each man according to his dream.H5288H5680H5650H8269H2876H5608H6622H2472H376H2472H6622 13And as he interpreted to us, so it came about. I was restored to my office, and the baker was hanged."H6622H7725H3653H8518 14Then Pharaoh sent and called Joseph, and they quickly brought him out of the pit. And when he had shaved himself and changed his clothes, he came in before Pharaoh.H6547H7971H7121H3130H7323H953H1548H2498H8071H935H6547 15And Pharaoh said to Joseph, "I have had a dream, and there is no one who can interpret it. I have heard it said of you that when you hear a dream you can interpret it."H6547H559H3130H2492H2472H6622H8085H559H8085H2472H6622 16Joseph answered Pharaoh, "It is not in me; God will give Pharaoh a favorable answer."H3130H6030H6547H559H1107H430H6030H6547H6030H7965 17Then Pharaoh said to Joseph, "Behold, in my dream I was standing on the banks of the Nile.H6547H1696H3130H2472H5975H8193H2975 18Seven cows, plump and attractive, came up out of the Nile and fed in the reed grass.H5927H2975H7651H6510H1277H1320H3303H8389H7462H260 19Seven other cows came up after them, poor and very ugly and thin, such as I had never seen in all the land of Egypt.H7651H312H6510H5927H310H1803H3966H7451H8389H7534H1320H2007H3808H7200H776H4714H7455 20And the thin, ugly cows ate up the first seven plump cows,H7534H7451H6510H398H7223H7651H1277H6510 21but when they had eaten them no one would have known that they had eaten them, for they were still as ugly as at the beginning. Then I awoke.H935H7130H3045H935H7130H4758H7451H8462H3364 22I also saw in my dream seven ears growing on one stalk, full and good.H7200H2472H7651H7641H5927H259H7070H4392H2896 23Seven ears, withered, thin, and blighted by the east wind, sprouted after them,H7651H7641H6798H1851H7710H6921H6779H310 24and the thin ears swallowed up the seven good ears. And I told it to the magicians, but there was no one who could explain it to me."H1851H7641H1104H7651H2896H7641H559H2748H5046 25Then Joseph said to Pharaoh, "The dreams of Pharaoh are one; God has revealed to Pharaoh what he is about to do.H3130H559H6547H2472H6547H259H430H5046H6547H6213 26The seven good cows are seven years, and the seven good ears are seven years; the dreams are one.H7651H2896H6510H7651H8141H7651H2896H7641H7651H8141H2472H259 27The seven lean and ugly cows that came up after them are seven years, and the seven empty ears blighted by the east wind are also seven years of famine.H7651H7534H7451H6510H5927H310H7651H8141H7651H7386H7641H7710H6921H7651H8141H7458 28It is as I told Pharaoh; God has shown to Pharaoh what he is about to do.H1697H1696H6547H430H6213H7200H6547 29There will come seven years of great plenty throughout all the land of Egypt,H935H7651H8141H1419H7647H776H4714 30but after them there will arise seven years of famine, and all the plenty will be forgotten in the land of Egypt. The famine will consume the land,H6965H310H7651H8141H7458H7647H7911H776H4714H7458H3615H776 31and the plenty will be unknown in the land by reason of the famine that will follow, for it will be very severe.H7647H3045H776H6440H7458H310H3651H3966H3515 32And the doubling of Pharaoh's dream means that the thing is fixed by God, and God will shortly bring it about.H2472H8138H6547H6471H1697H3559H5973H430H430H4116H6213 33Now therefore let Pharaoh select a discerning and wise man, and set him over the land of Egypt.H6547H7200H376H995H2450H7896H776H4714 34Let Pharaoh proceed to appoint overseers over the land and take one-fifth of the produce of the land of Egypt during the seven plentiful years.H6547H6213H6485H6496H776H2567H776H4714H7651H7647H8141 35And let them gather all the food of these good years that are coming and store up grain under the authority of Pharaoh for food in the cities, and let them keep it.H6908H400H2896H8141H935H6651H1250H3027H6547H8104H400H5892 36That food shall be a reserve for the land against the seven years of famine that are to occur in the land of Egypt, so that the land may not perish through the famine."H400H6487H776H7651H8141H7458H776H4714H776H3772H7458 37This proposal pleased Pharaoh and all his servants.H1697H3190H5869H6547H5869H5650 38And Pharaoh said to his servants, "Can we find a man like this, in whom is the Spirit of God?"H6547H559H5650H4672H2088H376H834H7307H430 39Then Pharaoh said to Joseph, "Since God has shown you all this, there is none so discerning and wise as you are.H6547H559H3130H310H430H3045H995H2450 40You shall be over my house, and all my people shall order themselves as you command. Only as regards the throne will I be greater than you."H1961H1004H6310H5971H5401H3678H1431 41And Pharaoh said to Joseph, "See, I have set you over all the land of Egypt."H6547H559H3130H7200H5414H776H4714 42Then Pharaoh took his signet ring from his hand and put it on Joseph's hand, and clothed him in garments of fine linen and put a gold chain about his neck.H6547H5493H2885H3027H5414H3130H3027H3847H899H8336H7760H2091H7242H6677 43And he made him ride in his second chariot. And they called out before him, "Bow the knee!" Thus he set him over all the land of Egypt.H7392H4932H4818H7121H6440H86H5414H776H4714 44Moreover, Pharaoh said to Joseph, "I am Pharaoh, and without your consent no one shall lift up hand or foot in all the land of Egypt."H6547H559H3130H6547H1107H376H7311H3027H7272H776H4714 45And Pharaoh called Joseph's name Zaphenath-paneah. And he gave him in marriage Asenath, the daughter of Potiphera priest of On. So Joseph went out over the land of Egypt.H6547H7121H3130H8034H6847H5414H802H621H1323H6319H3548H204H3130H3318H776H4714 46Joseph was thirty years old when he entered the service of Pharaoh king of Egypt. And Joseph went out from the presence of Pharaoh and went through all the land of Egypt.H3130H7970H8141H1121H5975H6440H6547H4428H4714H3130H3318H6440H6547H5674H776H4714 47During the seven plentiful years the earth produced abundantly,H7651H7647H8141H776H6213H7062 48and he gathered up all the food of these seven years, which occurred in the land of Egypt, and put the food in the cities. He put in every city the food from the fields around it.H6908H400H7651H8141H776H4714H5414H400H5892H400H7704H5439H5892H5414H8432 49And Joseph stored up grain in great abundance, like the sand of the sea, until he ceased to measure it, for it could not be measured.H3130H6651H1250H2344H3220H3966H7235H2308H5608H369H4557 50Before the year of famine came, two sons were born to Joseph. Asenath, the daughter of Potiphera priest of On, bore them to him.H3130H3205H8147H1121H8141H7458H935H621H1323H6319H3548H204H3205 51Joseph called the name of the firstborn Manasseh. "For," he said, "God has made me forget all my hardship and all my father's house."H3130H7121H8034H1060H4519H430H5382H5999H1H1004 52The name of the second he called Ephraim, "For God has made me fruitful in the land of my affliction."H8034H8145H7121H669H430H6509H776H6040 53The seven years of plenty that occurred in the land of Egypt came to an end,H7651H8141H7647H776H4714H3615 54and the seven years of famine began to come, as Joseph had said. There was famine in all lands, but in all the land of Egypt there was bread.H7651H8141H7458H2490H935H3130H559H7458H776H776H4714H3899 55When all the land of Egypt was famished, the people cried to Pharaoh for bread. Pharaoh said to all the Egyptians, "Go to Joseph. What he says to you, do."H776H4714H7456H5971H6817H6547H3899H6547H559H4714H3212H3130H559H6213 56So when the famine had spread over all the land, Joseph opened all the storehouses and sold to the Egyptians, for the famine was severe in the land of Egypt.H7458H6440H776H3130H6605H7666H4714H7458H2388H776H4714 57Moreover, all the earth came to Egypt to Joseph to buy grain, because the famine was severe over all the earth.H776H935H4714H3130H7666H7458H2388H776
