01_GEN_41_01 And it came to pass at the end of two full years , that Pharaoh dreamed : And , behold , he stood by the river .
01_GEN_41_02 And , behold , there came up out of the river seven Well favoured kine And fatfleshed ; And they fed in A meadow .
01_GEN_41_03 And , behold , seven other kine came up after them out of the river , ill favoured And leanfleshed ; And stood by the [ other ] kine upon the brink of the river .
01_GEN_41_04 And the ill favoured And leanfleshed kine did eat up the seven Well favoured And fat kine . So Pharaoh awoke .
01_GEN_41_05 And he slept And dreamed the second time : And , behold , seven ears of corn came up upon one stalk , rank And good .
01_GEN_41_06 And , behold , seven thin ears And blasted with the east wind sprung up after them .
01_GEN_41_07 And the seven thin ears devoured the seven rank And full ears . And Pharaoh awoke , And , behold , [ it was ] A dream .
01_GEN_41_08 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 .
01_GEN_41_09 Then spake the chief butler unto Pharaoh , saying , I do Remember my faults this day :
01_GEN_41_10 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 :
01_GEN_41_11 And we dreamed A dream in one night , I And he ; we dreamed each man according to the interpretation of his dream .
01_GEN_41_12 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 .
01_GEN_41_13 And it came to pass , as he interpreted to us , So it was ; me he restored unto mine office , And him he hanged .
01_GEN_41_14 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 .
01_GEN_41_15 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 .
01_GEN_41_16 And Joseph answered Pharaoh , saying , [ it Is ] not in me : God shall give Pharaoh an answer of peace .
01_GEN_41_17 And Pharaoh said unto Joseph , in my dream , behold , I stood upon the bank of the river :
01_GEN_41_18 And , behold , there came up out of the river seven kine , fatfleshed And Well favoured ; And they fed in A meadow :
01_GEN_41_19 And , behold , seven other kine came up after them , poor And very ill favoured And leanfleshed , such as I never saw in all the land of Egypt for badness :
01_GEN_41_20 And the lean And the ill favoured kine did eat up the first seven fat kine :
01_GEN_41_21 And when they had eaten them up , it could not be known that they had eaten them ; but they [ were ] still ill favoured , as at the beginning . So I awoke .
01_GEN_41_22 And I saw in my dream , And , behold , seven ears came up in one stalk , full And good :
01_GEN_41_23 And , behold , seven ears , withered , thin , [ And ] blasted with the east wind , sprung up after them :
01_GEN_41_24 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 .
01_GEN_41_25 And Joseph said unto Pharaoh , the dream of Pharaoh [ Is ] one : God hath showed Pharaoh what he [ Is ] about to do .
01_GEN_41_26 the seven good kine [ are ] seven years ; And the seven good ears [ are ] seven years : the dream [ Is ] one .
01_GEN_41_27 And the seven thin And ill favoured 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 .
01_GEN_41_28 this [ Is ] the thing which I have spoken unto Pharaoh : what God [ Is ] about to do he showeth unto Pharaoh .
01_GEN_41_29 behold , there come seven years of great plenty throughout all the land of Egypt :
01_GEN_41_30 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 ;
01_GEN_41_31 And the plenty shall not be known in the land by reason of that famine following ; for it [ shall be ] very grievous .
01_GEN_41_32 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 .
01_GEN_41_33 now therefore let Pharaoh Look out A man discreet And wise , And set him over the land of Egypt .
01_GEN_41_34 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 .
01_GEN_41_35 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 .
01_GEN_41_36 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 .
01_GEN_41_37 And the thing was good in the eyes of Pharaoh , And in the eyes of all his servants .
01_GEN_41_38 And Pharaoh said unto his servants , can we find [ such A one ] as this [ Is ] , A man in whom the spirit of God [ Is ] ?
01_GEN_41_39 And Pharaoh said unto Joseph , Forasmuch as God hath showed thee all this , [ there Is ] none So discreet And wise as thou [ art ] :
01_GEN_41_40 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 .
01_GEN_41_41 And Pharaoh said unto Joseph , see , I have set thee over all the land of Egypt .
01_GEN_41_42 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 ;
01_GEN_41_43 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 .
01_GEN_41_44 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 .
01_GEN_41_45 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 .
01_GEN_41_46 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 .
01_GEN_41_47 And in the seven plenteous years the earth brought forth by handfuls .
01_GEN_41_48 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 .
01_GEN_41_49 And Joseph gathered corn as the sand of the sea , very much , until he left numbering ; for [ it was ] without number .
01_GEN_41_50 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 .
01_GEN_41_51 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 .
01_GEN_41_52 And the name of the second called he Ephraim : for God hath caused me to be fruitful in the land of my affliction .
01_GEN_41_53 And the seven years of plenteousness , that was in the land of Egypt , were ended .
01_GEN_41_54 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 .
01_GEN_41_55 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 .
01_GEN_41_56 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 .
01_GEN_41_57 And all countries came into Egypt to Joseph for to buy [ corn ] ; because that the famine was [ So ] sore in all lands .
