1: And it came to passH1961 at the endH7093 of twoH8141 full years,H3117 that PharaohH6547 had a dream-H2492 and behold,H2009 he stoodH5975 byH5921 the Nile.H2975

2: And suddenly,H2009 outH4480 of the NileH2975 there came upH5927 sevenH7651 cows H6510 fineH3303 lookingH4758 and fatH1277 of flesh-H1320 and they fedH7462 among the reeds.H0260

3: And behold,H2009 sevenH7651 cows H6510 otherH0312 came upH5927 after themH0310 outH4480 of the Nile,H2975 illH7451 favoredH4758 and thinH1851 of flesh-H1320 and stoodH5975 byH0681 the [other] cows H6510 onH5921 the bankH8193 of the Nile.H2975

4: And ate upH0398 the cows H6510 illH7451 favoredH4758 and thinH1851 of fleshH1320 -,H0853 sevenH7651 the cows H6510 fineH3303 lookingH4758 and fat.H1277 Then awokeH3364 Pharaoh.H6547

5: And He sleptH3462 and dreamedH2492 a second [time]-H8145 and suddenly,H2009 sevenH7651 heads of grainH7641 came upH5927 on stalkH7070 oneH0259 fatH1277 and good.H2896

6: And behold,H2009 sevenH7651 headsH7641 thinH1851 and blighted byH7710 the east windH6921 sprang upH6779 after them.H0310

7: And devouredH1104 headsH7641 the thinH1851 -,H0853 sevenH7651 headsH7641 the fatH1277 and full.H4392 So awokeH3364 Pharaoh,H6547 and indeedH2009 [it was] a dream.H2472

8: And it came to passH1961 in the morningH1242 that was troubledH6470 his spirit-H7307 and he sentH7971 and called forH7121 -H0853 allH3605 the magiciansH2748 of Egypt,H4714 andH0853 allH3605 its wise men,H2450 and toldH5608 PharaohH6547 -H0853 his dreams-H2472 but [there was] no oneH0369 who could interpretH6622 themH0853 for Pharaoh.H6547

9: And spokeH1696 chiefH8269 the cupbearerH4945 toH0854 Pharaoh,H6547 saying,H0559 -H0853 my faultsH2399 IH0589 rememberH2142 this day-H3117

10: PharaohH6547 was angryH7107 withH5921 his servants,H5650 and putH5414 meH0853 in custody inH4929 the houseH1004 of the captainH8269 of the guard,H2876 [both] meH0853 andH0853 chiefH8269 the baker.H0644

11: And we each hadH2492 a dreamH2472 in nightH3915 one,H0259 IH0589 and he-H1931 each of usH0376 according to the interpretationH6623 of his [own] dreamH2472 dreamed.H2492

12: And thereH8033 [there was] with usH0854 a young man,H5288 HebrewH5680 a servantH5650 of the captainH8269 of the guard-H2876 and we toldH5608 and he interpretedH6622 -H0853 our dreams-H2472 to each manH0582 according to his [own] dreamH2472 he interpreted.H6622

13: And it came to pass,H1961 just asH0834 he interpretedH6622 soH3651 it came to pass-H1961 meH0853 He restoredH7725 toH5921 my office,H3653 and himH0853 he hanged.H8518

14: And sentH7971 PharaohH6547 and calledH7121 -H0853 Joseph,H3130 and they brought him quicklyH7323 outH4480 of the dungeon-H0953 and he shavedH1548 and changedH2498 his clothing,H8071 and cameH0935 toH0413 Pharaoh.H6547

15: And saidH0559 PharaohH6547 toH0413 Joseph,H3130 a dreamH2472 I have dreamed,H2492 and to interpretH6622 [there is] no oneH0369 it.H0853 But IH0589 have heardH8085 of youH5921 it saidH0559 [that] you can understandH8085 a dreamH2472 to interpretH6622 it.H0853

16: So answeredH6030 JosephH3130 -H0853 Pharaoh,H6547 saying,H0559 [it is] not in me-H1107 GodH0430 will give an answerH6030 -H0853 of peaceH7965 Pharaoh.H6547

17: And saidH1696 PharaohH6547 toH0413 Joseph,H3130 in my dream,H2472 beholdH2005 I stoodH5975 onH5921 the bankH8193 of the Nile-H2975

18: And suddenly,H2009 outH4480 of the riverH2975 came upH5927 sevenH7651 cows ,H6510 fatH1277 of flesh,H1320 and fineH3303 looking-H8389 and they fedH7462 among the reeds-H0260

19: and behold,H2009 sevenH7651 cows H6510 otherH0312 came upH5927 after them,H0310 poorH1803 and illH7451 favoredH8389 very,H3966 andH7534 gaunt.H1320 NeverH3808 I have seenH7200 such as theseH2007 in allH3605 the landH0776 of EgyptH4714 for ugliness.H7455

20: And ate upH0398 cows H6510 the gauntH7534 uglyH7451 -H0853 sevenH7651 the cows H6510 firstH7223 fat.H1277

21: And they had devouredH0935 -H0413 among them,H7130 and no oneH3808 would have knownH3045 thatH3588 they had devouredH0935 -H0413 among them,H7130 for they [were]H4758 ugly,H7451 just asH0834 as at the beginning.H8462 Then I awoke.H3364

22: And I sawH7200 in my dream,H2472 and suddenly,H2009 sevenH7651 headsH7641 came upH5927 on stalkH7070 one,H0259 fullH4392 and good,H2896

23: and behold,H2009 sevenH7651 heads,H7641 withered,H6798 thin,H1851 [and] blighted byH7710 the east wind,H6921 sprang upH6779 after them.H0310

24: And devouredH1104 headsH7641 the thinH1851 -H0853 sevenH7651 the headsH7641 good.H2896 So I told [this]H0559 to,H0413 the magicians-H2748 but [there was] no oneH0369 who could explain [it]H5046

25: And saidH0559 JosephH3130 toH0413 Pharaoh,H6547 the dreamsH2472 of PharaohH6547 one-H0259 areH1931 -H0853 WhatH0834 God [is]H0430 about to do,H6213 He has shownH5046 Pharaoh.H6547

26: SevenH7651 cows H6510 the goodH2896 sevenH7651 yearsH8141 are-H2007 and sevenH7651 the headsH7641 goodH2896 sevenH7651 yearsH8141 are.H2007 The dreamsH2472 oneH0259 are.H1931

27: And sevenH7651 the cows H6510 thinH7534 and uglyH7451 which came upH5927 after themH0310 sevenH7651 yearsH8141 are-H2007 and sevenH7651 the headsH7641 empty,H7386 blighted byH7710 the east wind,H6921 areH1961 sevenH7651 yearsH8141 of famine.H7458

28: That [is]H1931 the thingH1697 whichH0834 I have spokenH1696 toH0413 Pharaoh-H6547 WhatH0834 God [is]H0430 about to do,H6213 He has shownH7200 -H0853 Pharaoh.H6547

29: Indeed,H2009 sevenH7651 yearsH8141 will comeH0935 plentyH7647 of greatH1419 throughout allH3605 the landH0776 of Egypt-H4714

30: but will ariseH6965 sevenH7651 yearsH8141 of famineH7458 after them,H0310 and will be forgottenH7911 allH3605 the plentyH7647 in the landH0776 of Egypt-H4714 and will depleteH3615 the famineH7458 -H0853 the land.H0776

31: So notH3808 will be knownH3045 the plentyH7647 in the land,H0776 becauseH6440 of famineH7458 thatH1931 followingH0310 thus-H3651 forH3588 severe.H3515 It [will be]H1931 very.H3966

32: AndH5921 was repeatedH8138 the dreamH2472 toH0413 PharaohH6547 twice-H6471 becauseH3588 [is] establishedH3559 the thingH1697 byH5973 God,H0430 and will shortlyH4116 GodH0430 bring it to pass.H6213

33: Now thereforeH6258 let selectH7200 Pharaoh,H6547 a manH0376 discerningH0995 and wise,H2450 and set himH7896 overH5921 the landH0776 of Egypt.H4714

34: Let do [this]H6213 PharaohH6547 and let him appointH6485 officersH6496 overH5921 the land,H0776 to take a fifthH2567 -H0853 from the landH0776 of EgyptH4714 in sevenH7651 yearsH8141 the plentiful.H7647

35: And let them gatherH6908 -H0853 allH3605 the foodH0400 of yearsH8141 goodH2896 that are comingH0935 these,H0428 and store upH6651 grainH1250 underH8478 the authorityH3027 of Pharaoh,H6547 foodH0400 in the citiesH5892 to be preserved.H8104

36: That shall beH1961 foodH0400 as a reserveH6487 for the landH0776 for sevenH7651 yearsH8141 of the famine,H7458 whichH0834 shall beH1961 in the landH0776 of Egypt-H4714 that notH3808 may perishH3772 the landH0776 during the famine.H7458

37: So was goodH3190 the adviceH1697 in the eyesH5869 of Pharaoh,H6547 and in the eyesH5869 of allH3605 his servants.H5650

38: And saidH0559 PharaohH6547 toH0413 his servants,H5650 can we findH4672 [such] as this,H2088 a manH0376 whomH0834 the SpiritH7307 of GodH0430

39: And saidH0559 PharaohH6547 toH0413 Joseph,H3130 SinceH0310 has shownH3045 GodH0430 youH0853 -H0853 allH3605 this,H2063 [there is] no oneH0369 as discerningH0995 and wiseH2450 as you.H3644

40: YouH0859 shall beH1961 overH5921 my house,H1004 and according toH5921 your wordH6310 shall be ruledH5401 allH3605 my people,H5971 only in regard toH7535 the throneH3678 will I be greaterH1431 than you.H4480

41: And saidH0559 PharaohH6547 toH0413 Joseph,H3130 See,H7200 I have setH5414 youH0853 overH5921 allH3605 the landH0776 of Egypt.H4714

42: And tookH5493 PharaohH6547 -H0853 his signet ringH2885 offH5921 his hand,H3027 and putH5414 itH0853 onH5921 handH3027 of Joseph,H3130 and he clothedH3847 himH0853 in garmentsH0899 of fine linen,H8336 and putH7760 a chainH7242 goldH2091 aroundH5921 his neck.H6677

43: And he had rideH7392 himH0853 in chariot,H4818 the secondH4932 whichH0834 And they cried outH7121 before him,H6440 Bow the knee!H0086 so he setH5414 himH0853 overH5921 allH3605 the landH0776 of Egypt.H4714

44: And saidH0559 PharaohH6547 toH0413 Joseph,H3130 I [am]H0589 Pharaoh,H6547 and apart from youH1107 notH3808 may liftH7311 manH0376 -H0853 his handH3027 orH0853 foot,H7272 in allH3605 the landH0776 of Egypt.H4714

45: And calledH7121 PharaohH6547 the nameH8034 of JosephH3130 Zaphnath Paaneah-H6847 and he gaveH5414 -H0853 AsenathH0621 the daughterH1323 Potiphera,H6319 priestH3548 of On,H0204 as a wife.H0802 So went outH3318 JosephH3130 over [all]H5921 the landH0776 of Egypt.H4714

46: And JosephH3130 oldH1121 [was] thirtyH7970 yearsH8141 when he stoodH5975 beforeH6440 PharaohH6547 kingH4428 of Egypt.H4714 And went outH3318 JosephH3130 from the presenceH6440 of Pharaoh,H6547 and wentH5674 through allH3605 the landH0776 of Egypt.H4714

47: And brought forthH6213 the groundH0776 in the sevenH7651 yearsH8141 plentifulH7647 abundantly.H7062

48: So he gathered upH6908 -H0853 allH3605 the foodH0400 of sevenH7651 the years,H8141 whichH0834 wereH1961 in the landH0776 of Egypt,H4714 and laid upH5414 the foodH0400 in the cities.H5892 The foodH0400 of the fieldsH7704 in every city,H5892 whichH0834 surrounded them,H5439 he laid upH5414 in the midst.H8432

49: And gatheredH6651 JosephH3130 grainH1250 like the sandH2344 of the sea-H3220 muchH7235 veryH3966 untilH5704 thatH3588 he stoppedH2308 counting-H5608 forH3588 [it was] notH0369 measurable.H4557

50: And to JosephH3130 were bornH3205 twoH8147 sonsH1121 beforeH2962 cameH0935 the yearsH8141 of famine,H7458 whomH0834 boreH3205 AsenathH0621 the daughterH1323 Potiphera,H6319 priestH3548 of On.H0204

51: And calledH7121 JosephH3130 -H0853 the nameH8034 of the firstbornH1060 Manasseh,H4519 forH3588 has made me forgetH5382 GodH0430 -H0853 allH3605 my toilH5999 andH0853 allH3605 houseH1004 of my father.H0001

52: AndH0853 the nameH8034 of the secondH8145 he calledH7121 Ephraim,H0669 forH3588 has caused me to be fruitfulH6509 GodH0430 in the landH0776 of my affliction.H6040

53: And ended.H3615 sevenH7651 yearsH8141 of the plenty,H7647 whichH0834 wereH1961 in the landH0776 of Egypt,H4714

54: and beganH2490 sevenH7651 yearsH8141 of the famineH7458 to come,H0935 asH0834 had saidH0559 Joseph.H3130 And wasH1961 the famineH7458 in allH3605 lands,H0776 but in allH3605 the landH0776 of EgyptH4714 there wasH1961 bread.H3899

55: So when was famishedH7456 allH3605 the landH0776 of Egypt,H4714 then criedH6817 the peopleH5971 toH0413 PharaohH6547 for bread,H3899 And saidH0559 PharaohH6547 to allH3605 Egypt,H4713 goH1980 toH0413 Joseph-H3130 whateverH0834 he saysH0559 do.H6213

56: And the famineH7458 wasH1961 overH5921 allH3605 the faceH6440 of the earth,H0776 and openedH6605 JosephH3130 -H0853 allH3605 the storehousesH0834 and soldH7666 to the Egyptians-H4713 and became severeH2388 the famineH7458 in the landH0776 of Egypt.H4714

57: So allH3605 countriesH0776 cameH0935 into EgyptH4714 to buy [grain]H7666 untoH0413 Joseph,H3130 becauseH3588 was severeH2388 the famineH7458 in allH3605 lands.H0776
