King James Version
And it cometh
to pass ,
at the end of two years of
days
that Pharaoh is
dreaming,
and lo
, he is
standing
by the River ,
And it came
to pass at the end of two full
years ,
that Pharaoh dreamed:
and, behold,
he stood
by the river .
and lo
, from
the River coming
up
are
seven kine ,
of
fair
appearance,
and fat
`in'
flesh,
and they feed
among
the
reeds;
And, behold,
there
came
up
out
of
the river seven well
favored
kine and fatfleshed;
and they fed
in
a
meadow.
and lo
, seven other kine are
coming
up after them out of the River, of
bad
appearance,
and lean
`in'
flesh,
and they
stand
near
the kine on
the edge
of the River ,
And, behold,
seven other kine came
up after them out of the river, ill
favored
and leanfleshed;
and stood
by
the other
kine upon
the brink
of the river .
and the kine
of
bad
appearance
and lean
`in'
flesh
eat up the seven kine
of
fair
appearance,
and fat --
and
Pharaoh awaketh
.
And the ill
favored
and leanfleshed
kine
did
eat up the seven well
favored
and fat kine.
So
Pharaoh awoke
.
And he sleepeth,
and dreameth
a
second time ,
and lo
, seven ears are
coming
up on
one stalk, fat
and good ,
And he slept
and dreamed
the
second time :
and, behold,
seven ears of
corn
came
up upon
one stalk, rank
and good .
and lo
, seven
ears
, thin ,
and blasted with an
east wind ,
are
springing
up after them ;
And, behold
, seven
thin ears
and blasted with the
east wind sprung
up after them .
and the thin ears swallow
the seven fat
and full ears --
and Pharaoh awaketh
, and lo
, a dream.
And the seven
thin ears devoured
the seven rank
and full ears .
And Pharaoh awoke
, and, behold,
it
was
a dream.
And it cometh
to pass in the morning ,
that his spirit is
moved,
and he sendeth
and calleth
all the scribes
of Egypt, and all its
wise men ,
and Pharaoh recounteth
to
them his dream ,
and
there is
no
interpreter
of
them to
Pharaoh.
And it came
to pass in the morning that his spirit was
troubled;
and he sent
and called
for
all the magicians
of Egypt, and all the
wise men thereof:
and Pharaoh told
them his dream ;
but
there was
none
that
could
interpret
them unto
Pharaoh.
And
the chief of
the
butlers
speaketh
with
Pharaoh, saying, `My
sin
I mention
this day:
Then
spake
the chief butler
unto
Pharaoh, saying, I do
remember
my
faults
this day:
Pharaoh hath
been
wroth against
his servants, and giveth
me into
charge
in the
house
of
the chief
of the executioners
, me and the chief of
the
bakers;
Pharaoh was
wroth with
his servants, and put
me in ward
in
the captain
of the guard's
house
, both
me and the chief baker:
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 one night, I and he ;
we
dreamed
each man
according to the interpretation of his dream.
And there `is'
with us a youth
, a
Hebrew, servant to the chief
of the executioners,
and we recount
to
him, and he interpreteth
to us our dreams ,
`
to '
each according to his dream hath
he interpreted,
And there was
there
with us a young
man
, an
Hebrew, servant to the captain
of the guard;
and we told
him, and he interpreted
to us our dreams ;
to each man
according to his dream he did
interpret.
and it cometh
to pass, as he hath
interpreted to us so it hath
been,
me he put
back
on
my
station
, and him he hanged. '
And it came
to pass, as he interpreted to us ,
so it was;
me he restored
unto
mine
office
, and him he hanged.
And
Pharaoh sendeth
and calleth
Joseph, and they cause
him to
run
out of the pit,
and he shaveth
, and changeth
his garments
, and cometh
in unto Pharaoh.
Then
Pharaoh sent
and called
Joseph, and they brought
him hastily
out of the dungeon:
and he shaved
himself
, and changed
his raiment
, and came
in unto Pharaoh.
And Pharaoh saith
unto Joseph, `A
dream
I have dreamed, and there is no
interpreter
of
it ,
and I --
I
have heard concerning
thee, saying,
Thou understandest
a dream to interpret it ,'
And Pharaoh said
unto Joseph, I have dreamed a
dream
, and there is none
that
can
interpret
it :
and I have heard say
of
thee, that
thou canst
understand
a dream to interpret it .
and Joseph answereth
Pharaoh, saying, `Without
me --
God doth
answer
Pharaoh with
peace. '
And Joseph answered
Pharaoh, saying, It
is
not
in
me :
God shall
give
Pharaoh an
answer
of
peace.
And Pharaoh speaketh
unto Joseph :
`
In my dream, lo
, I am
standing
by
the edge
of the River ,
And Pharaoh said
unto Joseph ,
In my dream, behold
, I stood
upon
the bank
of the river :
and lo
, out of the River coming
up
are
seven kine, fat
`in'
flesh,
and of
fair
form,
and they feed
among
the
reeds;
And, behold,
there
came
up
out of the river seven kine, fatfleshed
and well
favored;
and they fed
in
a
meadow:
and lo
, seven other kine 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, behold,
seven other kine came
up after them, poor
and very ill
favored
and leanfleshed,
such
as
I never
saw
in all the land of Egypt for badness :
`
And the lean and the bad
kine eat up the first seven fat kine ,
And the lean and the ill
favored
kine did
eat up the first seven fat kine :
and they come
in
unto
their
midst
, and
it hath
not been
known that they have
come
in
unto
their
midst
, and
their
appearance
`is'
bad
as at the commencement;
and
I awake
.
And when
they had
eaten
them
up
, it could
not be
known that they had
eaten
them;
but
they
were
still
ill
favored
, as at the beginning.
So
I awoke
.
`
And I see
in my dream, and lo
, seven ears are
coming
up on
one stalk, full and good ;
And I saw
in my dream, and, behold,
seven ears came
up in
one stalk, full and good :
and lo
, seven ears, withered, thin, blasted with an
east wind, are
springing
up after them ;
And, behold,
seven ears, withered, thin, and
blasted with the
east wind, sprung
up after them :
and the thin ears swallow
the seven good ears ;
and I tell
unto the scribes,
and
there is
none declaring
to me. '
And the thin ears devoured
the seven good ears :
and I told
this
unto the magicians;
but
there was
none that
could
declare
it
to me.
And Joseph saith
unto Pharaoh, `
The dream of Pharaoh is one: that
which
God is
doing
he
hath declared
to
Pharaoh ;
And Joseph said
unto Pharaoh, The dream of Pharaoh is one: God hath showed
Pharaoh what
he
is
about
to
do.
the seven good kine are seven years ,
and the seven good ears are seven years ,
the dream is one ;
The seven good kine are seven years ;
and the seven good ears are seven years :
the dream is one .
and the seven thin and bad
kine which
are
coming
up after them are seven years ,
and the seven empty ears ,
blasted with an
east wind ,
are
seven years of famine ;
And the seven thin and ill
favored
kine that
came
up after them are seven years ;
and the seven empty ears blasted with the
east wind shall
be
seven years of famine .
this `
is '
the thing which I have spoken unto Pharaoh: That
which
God is doing,
he hath
shewn
Pharaoh.
This is the thing which I have spoken unto Pharaoh: What
God is about
to
do
he showeth
unto
Pharaoh.
`Lo
, seven years are
coming
of great abundance
in
all the land of Egypt ,
Behold
, there
come
seven years of great plenty
throughout
all the land of Egypt :
and seven years of famine have
arisen
after
them,
and all the plenty is
forgotten in the land of Egypt ,
and the famine hath
finished
the land ,
And there
shall
arise
after
them
seven years of famine ;
and all the plenty shall
be
forgotten in the land of Egypt ;
and the famine shall
consume
the land ;
and the plenty is
not known in the land because
of that famine afterwards,
for it `is'
very grievous.
And the plenty shall
not be
known in the land by
reason
of that famine following;
for it shall
be
very grievous.
`
And because
of
the
repeating
of
the dream unto Pharaoh twice ,
surely
the thing is established by God, and God is
hastening
to
do
it.
And for
that
the dream was
doubled
unto Pharaoh twice ;
it
is
because
the thing is established by God, and God will
shortly
bring
it to
pass
.
`And
now ,
let Pharaoh provide
a man ,
intelligent
and wise, and set him over the land of Egypt ;
Now therefore
let Pharaoh look
out
a man discreet
and wise, and set him over the land of Egypt .
let Pharaoh make
and appoint overseers
over the land, and receive
a
fifth of the land of Egypt in the seven years of
plenty,
Let Pharaoh do
this,
and let
him
appoint officers
over the land, and take
up
the
fifth part
of the land of Egypt in the seven plenteous
years .
and they
gather all the food of these
good years that are
coming
, and heap
up corn under the hand of Pharaoh --
food in the cities ;
and
they
have
kept
`it',
And let
them
gather all the food of those
good years that come
, and lay
up corn under the hand of Pharaoh ,
and
let
them
keep
food in the cities .
and the
food hath
been
for a
store for
the land ,
for
the seven years of famine which are
in the land of Egypt; and
the land is
cut
off
by
the famine. '
And that
food shall
be
for store to
the land against
the seven years of famine ,
which shall
be
in the land of Egypt; that
the land perish
not
through
the famine.
And the thing is
good in the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of all his servants ,
And the thing was
good in the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of all his servants .
and Pharaoh saith
unto his servants, `Do
we find like
this, a man in whom the spirit of God `
is '
? '
And Pharaoh said
unto his servants, Can
we find such
a
one
as
this is
, a man in whom the Spirit of God is?
and Pharaoh saith
unto Joseph, `After
God's
causing
thee to
know
all this, there is none intelligent
and wise as thou ;
And Pharaoh said
unto Joseph, Forasmuch
as
God
hath
showed
thee all this, there is none so
discreet
and wise as thou art:
thou --
thou
art
over my house, and at
thy mouth
do
all my people kiss;
only in the throne I am
greater than thou. '
Thou shalt
be
over my house, and according
unto
thy word
shall
all my people be
ruled:
only in the throne will
I be
greater than thou.
And Pharaoh saith
unto Joseph, `
See, I have put
thee over all the land of Egypt. '
And Pharaoh said
unto Joseph, See, I have set
thee over all the land of Egypt.
And Pharaoh turneth
aside
his seal-
ring from off
his hand, and putteth
it on
the
hand of
Joseph
, and clotheth
him `with'
garments
of fine linen, and placeth
a chain
of
gold on
his neck ,
And Pharaoh took
off
his ring from his hand, and put
it upon
Joseph's
hand, and arrayed
him in
vestures
of fine linen, and put
a gold chain
about
his neck ;
and causeth
him to ride in the second chariot which he hath,
and they proclaim
before him, `
Bow the knee !'
and --
to
put
him over all the land of Egypt.
And he
made
him to ride in the second chariot which he had;
and they cried
before him, Bow the knee :
and he
made
him ruler
over all the land of Egypt.
And Pharaoh saith
unto Joseph, `
I `
am '
Pharaoh, and without thee a
man doth
not
lift up his hand and
his
foot in all the land of Egypt ;'
And Pharaoh said
unto Joseph, I am Pharaoh, and without thee shall
no
man lift up his hand or
foot in all the land of Egypt .
and Pharaoh calleth
Joseph's name Zaphnath-Paaneah,
and he giveth
to
him Asenath daughter of Poti-Pherah,
priest of On ,
for
a
wife,
and Joseph goeth
out over the land of Egypt.
And Pharaoh called
Joseph's name Zaphnathpaaneah;
and he gave
him to
wife
Asenath the
daughter of Potipherah
priest of On .
And Joseph went
out over all
the land of Egypt.
And Joseph `is'
a
son
of
thirty years in
his
standing
before Pharaoh king of Egypt ,
and Joseph goeth
out from the presence of Pharaoh, and passeth
over
through
all the land of Egypt ;
And Joseph was
thirty years old
when
he
stood
before Pharaoh king of Egypt .
And Joseph went
out from the presence of Pharaoh, and went
throughout
all the land of Egypt .
and the
land
maketh
in the seven years of
plenty
by handfuls.
And in the seven plenteous
years the
earth
brought
forth
by handfuls.
And he gathereth
all the food of the seven years which have
been
in the land of Egypt, and putteth
food in the cities ;
the food of the field which `is'
round about `each'
city hath
he put
in its
midst;
And he gathered
up
all the food of the seven years ,
which were
in the land of Egypt, and laid
up
the
food in the cities :
the food of the field ,
which was
round about every
city ,
laid
he up
in the
same.
and Joseph gathereth
corn as sand of the sea, multiplying
exceedingly
, until that
he hath
ceased
to
number,
for there
is
no
number.
And Joseph gathered
corn as the
sand of the sea, very
much
, until he left
numbering;
for it
was
without
number.
And to
Joseph were born two sons before the year
of famine cometh
, whom
Asenath daughter of Poti-Pherah,
priest of On ,
hath
borne
to
him ,
And unto
Joseph were born two sons before the years
of famine came
, which
Asenath the
daughter of Potipherah
priest of On bare
unto
him .
and Joseph calleth
the name of the first-born
Manasseh: `
for ,
God hath made me to
forget all my labour
, and all the
house
of
my father;'
And Joseph called
the name of the firstborn
Manasseh: For God ,
said
he,
hath made me forget all my toil
, and all my father's
house.
and the name of the second he
hath
called Ephraim: `
for ,
God hath caused me to be fruitful in the land of mine
affliction. '
And the name of the second called he
Ephraim: For God hath caused me to be fruitful in the land of my
affliction.
And the seven years of plenty
are
completed
which
have
been
in the land of Egypt,
And the seven years of plenteousness,
that
was
in the land of Egypt, were
ended.
and the seven years of famine
begin
to come, as Joseph said ,
and famine
is
in all the
lands ,
but in all the land of Egypt hath
been
bread ;
And the seven years of dearth
began
to come, according
as Joseph had
said :
and the
dearth
was
in all lands ;
but in all the land of Egypt there
was
bread .
and all the land of Egypt is
famished, and
the people crieth
unto
Pharaoh for bread ,
and Pharaoh saith
to
all the Egyptians, `
Go unto Joseph; that
which
he saith to you --
do. '
And when
all the land of Egypt was
famished, the people cried
to
Pharaoh for bread :
and Pharaoh said
unto
all the Egyptians, Go unto Joseph; what
he saith to you ,
do.
And the famine has
been
over all the face of the land,
and Joseph openeth
all `places'
which
have
`corn'
in
them
, and selleth
to
the Egyptians; and the famine is
severe
in the land of Egypt ,
And the famine was
over all the face of the earth:
and Joseph opened
all the
storehouses
, and sold
unto
the Egyptians; and the famine waxed
sore
in the land of Egypt .
and all the
earth
hath
come
to
Egypt ,
to buy,
unto
Joseph ,
for the famine was severe
in all the
earth
.
And all countries
came
into
Egypt to Joseph for to
buy
corn;
because
that
the famine was so
sore
in all lands
.
