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.
