GE-41:1 And it came to pass at the end of two full years, that
Pharaoh dreamed: and, behold, he stood by the river.
GE-41:2 And, behold, there came up out of the river seven well
favoured kine and fatfleshed; and they fed in a meadow.
GE-41:3 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.
GE-41:4 And the ill favoured and leanfleshed kine did eat up the
seven well favoured and fat kine. So Pharaoh awoke.
GE-41:5 And he slept and dreamed the second time: and, behold,
seven
ears of corn came up upon one stalk, rank and good.
GE-41:6 And, behold, seven thin ears and blasted with the east
wind
sprung up after them.
GE-41:7 And the seven thin ears devoured the seven rank and full
ears. And Pharaoh awoke, and, behold, [it was] a dream.
GE-41:8 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.
GE-41:9 Then spake the chief butler unto Pharaoh, saying, I do
remember my faults this day:
GE-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:
GE-41:11 And we dreamed a dream in one night, I and he; we
dreamed
each man according to the interpretation of his dream.
GE-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.
GE-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.
GE-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.
GE-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.
GE-41:16 And Joseph answered Pharaoh, saying, [It is] not in me:
God
shall give Pharaoh an answer of peace.
GE-41:17 And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, In my dream, behold, I
stood
upon the bank of the river:
GE-41:18 And, behold, there came up out of the river seven kine,
fatfleshed and well favoured; and they fed in a meadow:
GE-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:
GE-41:20 And the lean and the ill favoured kine did eat up the
first
seven fat kine:
GE-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.
GE-41:22 And I saw in my dream, and, behold, seven ears came up
in
one stalk, full and good:
GE-41:23 And, behold, seven ears, withered, thin, [and] blasted
with
the east wind, sprung up after them:
GE-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.
GE-41:25 And Joseph said unto Pharaoh, The dream of Pharaoh
[is] one:
God hath showed Pharaoh what he [is] about to do.
GE-41:26 The seven good kine [are] seven years; and the seven
good
ears [are] seven years: the dream [is] one.
GE-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.
GE-41:28 This [is] the thing which I have spoken unto Pharaoh:
What
God [is] about to do he showeth unto Pharaoh.
GE-41:29 Behold, there come seven years of great plenty
throughout
all the land of Egypt:
GE-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;
GE-41:31 And the plenty shall not be known in the land by
reason of
that famine following; for it [shall be] very grievous.
GE-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.
GE-41:33 Now therefore let Pharaoh look out a man discreet and
wise,
and set him over the land of Egypt.
GE-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.
GE-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.
