And it came to pass at the end of two full years,
that Pharaoh dreamed: and, behold, he stood by the river. |
|
|
|
|
|
GEN 41:2
Genesis 41:2
|
|
And, behold, there came up out of the river
seven well favoured kine and fatfleshed; and they fed in a meadow. |
| |
|
|
|
GEN 41:3
Genesis 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. |
| |
|
|
|
GEN 41:4
Genesis 41:4
|
|
And the ill favoured and leanfleshed kine did
eat up the seven well favoured and fat kine. So Pharaoh awoke. |
| |
|
|
|
GEN 41:5
Genesis 41:5
|
|
And he slept and dreamed the second time: and,
behold, seven ears of corn came up upon one stalk, rank and good. |
| |
|
|
|
GEN 41:6
Genesis 41:6
|
|
And, behold, seven thin ears and blasted with
the east wind sprung up after them. |
| |
|
|
|
GEN 41:7

|
|
And the seven thin ears devoured the seven rank
and full ears. And Pharaoh awoke, and, behold, it was a dream. |
|
|
|
|
GEN 41:8
Genesis 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. |
|
|
|
|
GEN 41:9

|
|
Then spake the chief butler unto Pharaoh, saying,
I do remember my faults this day: |
|
|
|
|
GEN 41:10
Genesis 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: |
|
|
|
|
GEN 41:11
Genesis 41:11
|
|
And we dreamed a dream in one night, I and he;
we dreamed each man according to the interpretation of his dream. |
|
|
|
|
GEN 41:12
Genesis 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. |
|
|
|
|
GEN 41:13
Genesis 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. |
|
|
|
|
GEN 41:14
Genesis 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. |
|
|
|
|
GEN 41:15
Genesis 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. |
|
|
|
|
GEN 41:16
Genesis 41:16
|
|
And Joseph answered Pharaoh, saying, It is not
in me: God shall give Pharaoh an answer of peace. |
|
|
|
|
GEN 41:17
Genesis 41:17
|
|
And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, In my dream, behold,
I stood upon the bank of the river: |
|
|
|
|
GEN 41:18
Genesis 41:18
|
|
And, behold, there came up out of the river
seven kine, fatfleshed and well favoured; and they fed in a meadow: |
|
|
|
|
GEN 41:19
Genesis 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: |
| |
|
|
|
GEN 41:20
Genesis 41:20
|
|
And the lean and the ill favoured kine did eat
up the first seven fat kine: |
| |
|
|
|
GEN 41:21
Genesis 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. |
|
|
|
|
|
GEN 41:22
Genesis 41:22
|
|
And I saw in my dream, and, behold, seven ears
came up in one stalk, full and good: |
|
|
|
|
|
GEN 41:23
Genesis 41:23
|
|
And, behold, seven ears, withered, thin, and
blasted with the east wind, sprung up after them: |
|
|
|
|
|
GEN 41:24
Genesis 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. |
|
|
|
|
|
GEN 41:25
Genesis 41:25
|
|
And Joseph said unto Pharaoh, The dream of Pharaoh
is one: God hath shewed Pharaoh what he is about to do. |
|
|
|
|
|
GEN 41:26
Genesis 41:26
|
|
The seven good kine are seven years; and the
seven good ears are seven years: the dream is one. |
|
|
|
|
|
GEN 41:27
Genesis 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. |
|
|
|
|
|
GEN 41:28
Genesis 41:28
|
|
This is the thing which I have spoken unto Pharaoh:
What God is about to do he sheweth unto Pharaoh. |

|
|
GEN 41:29
Genesis 41:29
|
|
Behold, there come seven years of great plenty
throughout all the land of Egypt: |
|
|
|
|
|
GEN 41:30
Genesis 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; |
|
|
|
|
|
GEN 41:31
Genesis 41:31
|
|
And the plenty shall not be known in the land
by reason of that famine following; for it shall be very grievous. |
|
|
|
|
|
GEN 41:32
Genesis 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. |
|
|
|
|
|
GEN 41:33
Genesis 41:33
|
|
Now therefore let Pharaoh look out a man discreet
and wise, and set him over the land of Egypt. |
|
|
|
|
|
GEN 41:34
Genesis 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. |

GEN 41:35
Genesis 41:35

against the seven years of famine, which shall be in the land of Egypt; that the

|
GEN 41:40
Genesis 41:40
|
|
Thou shalt be over my house, and according unto

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. |
|
|
|
|
|
GEN 41:49
Genesis 41:49
