1. And it happened at the end of two years of days, Pharaoh was dreaming. And, lo, he was standing by the River.
|
1. And it came to pass H1961 at the end H4480 H7093 of two full years H8141 H3117 , that Pharaoh H6547 dreamed H2492 : and, behold H2009 , he stood H5975 by H5921 the river H2975 .
|
|
2. And, behold! Seven cows were going up from the River, beautiful of appearance and fat of flesh; and they were feeding in the reeds.
|
2. And, behold H2009 , there came up H5927 out of H4480 the river H2975 seven H7651 well H3303 favored H4758 kine H6510 and fatfleshed H1277 H1320 ; and they fed H7462 in a meadow H260 .
|
|
3. And, behold, seven other cows were going up after them from the River, evil of appearance and lean of flesh. And they were standing beside the cows on the lip of the River.
|
3. And, behold H2009 , seven H7651 other H312 kine H6510 came up H5927 after H310 them out of H4480 the river H2975 , ill H7451 favored H4758 and leanfleshed H1851 H1320 ; and stood H5975 by H681 the other kine H6510 upon H5921 the brink H8193 of the river H2975 .
|
|
4. And the evil-appearing and lean-fleshed cows were eating the seven cows of beautiful and fat appearance. And Pharaoh awoke.
|
4. And the ill H7451 favored H4758 and leanfleshed H1851 H1320 kine H6510 did eat up H398 H853 the seven H7651 well H3303 favored H4758 and fat H1277 kine H6510 . So Pharaoh H6547 awoke H3364 .
|
|
5. And he slept and dreamed a second time. And, behold, seven ears of grain were coming up on one stalk, fat and good.
|
5. And he slept H3462 and dreamed H2492 the second time H8145 : and, behold H2009 , seven H7651 ears of corn H7641 came up H5927 upon one H259 stalk H7070 , rank H1277 and good H2896 .
|
|
6. And, behold, seven ears of grain, being lean and blasted by the east wind, sprouting forth after them.
|
6. And, behold H2009 , seven H7651 thin H1851 ears H7641 and blasted H7710 with the east wind H6921 sprung up H6779 after H310 them.
|
|
7. And the seven lean ears were swallowing the seven fat and full ears. And Pharaoh awakened; and, lo, it was a dream.
|
7. And the seven thin H1851 ears H7641 devoured H1104 H853 the seven H7651 rank H1277 and full H4392 ears H7641 . And Pharaoh H6547 awoke H3364 , and, behold H2009 , it was a dream H2472 .
|
|
8. And it happened in the morning, his spirit was troubled. And he sent and called for all the magicians of Egypt, and all its wise men. And Pharaoh told them his dream, and there was no interpreter of them to Pharaoh.
|
8. And it came to pass H1961 in the morning H1242 that his spirit H7307 was troubled H6470 ; and he sent H7971 and called for H7121 H853 all H3605 the magicians H2748 of Egypt H4714 , and all H3605 the wise men H2450 thereof : and Pharaoh H6547 told H5608 them H853 his dream H2472 ; but there was none H369 that could interpret H6622 them unto Pharaoh H6547 .
|
|
9. And the chief of the cupbearers spoke with Pharaoh, saying, I mention my sin today.
|
9. Then spoke H1696 the chief H8269 butler H4945 H853 unto Pharaoh H6547 , saying H559 , I H589 do remember H2142 H853 my faults H2399 this day H3117 :
|
|
10. Pharaoh was angry against his servants, and gave me into custody in the house of the chief of the executioners, me and the chief of the bakers.
|
10. Pharaoh H6547 was wroth H7107 with H5921 his servants H5650 , and put H5414 me in ward H4929 in the captain H8269 of the guard H2876 's house H1004 , both me and the chief H8269 baker H644 :
|
|
11. And we dreamed a dream in one night, he and I; we each dreamed according to the interpretation of his dream.
|
11. And we dreamed H2492 a dream H2472 in one H259 night H3915 , I H589 and he H1931 ; we dreamed H2492 each man H376 according to the interpretation H6623 of his dream H2472 .
|
|
12. And a Hebrew youth was with us, a slave to the chief of the executioners. And we told him, and he interpreted our dreams to us; he interpreted to each according to his dream.
|
12. And there was there H8033 with H854 us a young man H5288 , a Hebrew H5680 , servant H5650 to the captain H8269 of the guard H2876 ; and we told H5608 him , and he interpreted H6622 to us H853 our dreams H2472 ; to each man H376 according to his dream H2472 he did interpret H6622 .
|
|
13. And it happened, as he had interpreted to us, so it was; he returned me to my position, and he hanged him.
|
13. And it came to pass H1961 , as H834 he interpreted H6622 to us, so H3651 it was H1961 ; me he restored H7725 unto H5921 mine office H3653 , and him he hanged H8518 .
|
|
14. And Pharaoh sent and called Joseph; and they rushed him from the dungeon. And he shaved and changed his clothing and came in to Pharaoh.
|
14. Then Pharaoh H6547 sent H7971 and called H7121 H853 Joseph H3130 , and they brought him hastily H7323 out of H4480 the dungeon H953 : and he shaved H1548 himself , and changed H2498 his raiment H8071 , and came in H935 unto H413 Pharaoh H6547 .
|
|
15. And Pharaoh said to Joseph, I have dreamed a dream, and there is no one to interpret it; and I have heard about you, saying, you hear a dream to interpret it.
|
15. And Pharaoh H6547 said H559 unto H413 Joseph H3130 , I have dreamed H2492 a dream H2472 , and there is none H369 that can interpret H6622 it : and I H589 have heard H8085 say H559 of H5921 thee, that thou canst understand H8085 a dream H2472 to interpret H6622 it.
|
|
16. And Joseph replied to Pharaoh, saying, Not I! God will answer the well-being of Pharaoh.
|
16. And Joseph H3130 answered H6030 H853 Pharaoh H6547 , saying H559 , It is not in H1107 me: God H430 shall give Pharaoh an answer H6030 H6547 of H853 peace H7965 .
|
|
17. And Pharaoh said to Joseph, In my dream, lo, I was standing on the lip of the River.
|
17. And Pharaoh H6547 said H1696 unto H413 Joseph H3130 , In my dream H2472 , behold H2009 , I stood H5975 upon H5921 the bank H8193 of the river H2975 :
|
|
18. And, behold, seven cows were going up from the River, fat of flesh and beautiful of form, and were feeding in the reeds.
|
18. And, behold H2009 , there came up H5927 out of H4480 the river H2975 seven H7651 kine H6510 , fatfleshed H1277 H1320 and well H3303 favored H8389 ; and they fed H7462 in a meadow H260 :
|
|
19. And, behold, seven other cows were going up after them, poor and very evil of form, and lean of flesh; I have not seen any like them in all the land of Egypt for badness.
|
19. And, behold H2009 , seven H7651 other H312 kine H6510 came up H5927 after H310 them, poor H1800 and very H3966 ill H7451 favored H8389 and leanfleshed H7534 H1320 , such H2007 as I never H3808 saw H7200 in all H3605 the land H776 of Egypt H4714 for badness H7455 :
|
|
20. And the cows, the lean and the evil, ate the first seven fat cows.
|
20. And the lean H7534 and the ill favored H7451 kine H6510 did eat up H398 H853 the first H7223 seven H7651 fat H1277 kine H6510 :
|
|
21. And they went into their stomachs, and it could not be seen that they had gone into their stomachs; and their appearance was as evil as at the beginning. And I awakened.
|
21. And when they had eaten them up H935 H413 H7130 , it could not H3808 be known H3045 that H3588 they had eaten H935 H413 H7130 them ; but they were still ill favored H4758 H7451 , as H834 at the beginning H8462 . So I awoke H3364 .
|
|
22. And I looked in my dream. And, behold, seven ears of grain were coming up on one stalk, full and good.
|
22. And I saw H7200 in my dream H2472 , and, behold H2009 , seven H7651 ears H7641 came up H5927 in one H259 stalk H7070 , full H4392 and good H2896 :
|
|
23. And, behold, seven ears, withered, lean, blasted by the east wind, sprouting forth after them.
|
23. And, behold H2009 , seven H7651 ears H7641 , withered H6798 , thin H1851 , and blasted H7710 with the east wind H6921 , sprung up H6779 after H310 them:
|
|
24. And the lean ears were swallowing the seven good ears. And I spoke to the magicians, but not one is making known the meaning to me.
|
24. And the thin H1851 ears H7641 devoured H1104 H853 the seven H7651 good H2896 ears H7641 : and I told H559 this unto H413 the magicians H2748 ; but there was none H369 that could declare H5046 it to me.
|
|
25. And Joseph said to Pharaoh, The dream of Pharaoh is one. God has shown Pharaoh what He is about to do.
|
25. And Joseph H3130 said H559 unto H413 Pharaoh H6547 , The dream H2472 of Pharaoh H6547 is one H259 : God H430 hath showed H5046 Pharaoh H6547 H853 what H834 he is about to do H6213 .
|
|
26. The seven good cows, they are seven years and the seven good ears, they are seven years; it is one dream.
|
26. The seven H7651 good H2896 kine H6510 are seven H7651 years H8141 ; and the seven H7651 good H2896 ears H7641 are seven H7651 years H8141 : the dream H2472 is one H259 .
|
|
27. And the seven thin and evil-appearing cows going up after them, they are seven years; and the seven empty ears blasted by the east wind will be seven years of famine.
|
27. And the seven H7651 thin H7534 and ill favored H7451 kine H6510 that came up H5927 after H310 them are seven H7651 years H8141 ; and the seven H7651 empty H7386 ears H7641 blasted H7710 with the east wind H6921 shall be H1961 seven H7651 years H8141 of famine H7458 .
|
|
28. This is the word that I spoke to Pharaoh: what God is about to do, He has made Pharaoh see.
|
28. This H1931 is the thing H1697 which H834 I have spoken H1696 unto H413 Pharaoh H6547 : What H834 God H430 is about to do H6213 he showeth H7200 H853 unto Pharaoh H6547 .
|
|
29. Behold! Seven years of great plenty are coming in all the land of Egypt.
|
29. Behold H2009 , there come H935 seven H7651 years H8141 of great H1419 plenty H7647 throughout all H3605 the land H776 of Egypt H4714 :
|
|
30. And seven years of famine will arise after them and all the plenty of the land of Egypt will be forgotten; and the famine will consume the land.
|
30. And there shall arise H6965 after H310 them seven H7651 years H8141 of famine H7458 ; and all H3605 the plenty H7647 shall be forgotten H7911 in the land H776 of Egypt H4714 ; and the famine H7458 shall consume H3615 H853 the land H776 ;
|
|
31. And the plenty in the land will not be remembered because of that famine afterwards; for it will be very severe.
|
31. And the plenty H7647 shall not H3808 be known H3045 in the land H776 by reason of H4480 H6440 that H1931 famine H7458 following H310 H3651 ; for H3588 it H1931 shall be very H3966 grievous H3515 .
|
|
32. And as to the dream being repeated to Pharaoh twice, the thing is settled because it is from God, and God is hastening to do it.
|
32. And for H5921 that the dream H2472 was doubled H8138 unto H413 Pharaoh H6547 twice H6471 ; it is because H3588 the thing H1697 is established H3559 by H4480 H5973 God H430 , and God H430 will shortly H4116 bring it to pass H6213 .
|
|
33. And now let Pharaoh look for a man who is intelligent and wise, and set him over the land of Egypt.
|
33. Now H6258 therefore let Pharaoh H6547 look out H7200 a man H376 discreet H995 and wise H2450 , and set H7896 him over H5921 the land H776 of Egypt H4714 .
|
|
34. Let Pharaoh act and let him appoint rulers over the land and take a fifth of the land of Egypt in the seven years of plenty.
|
34. Let Pharaoh H6547 do H6213 this , and let him appoint H6485 officers H6496 over H5921 the land H776 , and take up the fifth part H2567 of H853 the land H776 of Egypt H4714 in the seven H7651 plenteous H7647 years H8141 .
|
|
35. And let them gather all the food of these coming good years. And let them heap up grain under Pharaoh's hand as food in the cities, and let them keep it.
|
35. And let them gather H6908 H853 all H3605 the food H400 of those H428 good H2896 years H8141 that come H935 , and lay up H6651 corn H1250 under H8478 the hand H3027 of Pharaoh H6547 , and let them keep H8104 food H400 in the cities H5892 .
|
|
36. And let the food be for a store for the land, for the seven years of famine which will be in the land of Egypt and let not the land be cut off by famine.
|
36. And that food H400 shall be H1961 for store H6487 to the land H776 against the seven H7651 years H8141 of famine H7458 , which H834 shall be H1961 in the land H776 of Egypt H4714 ; that the land H776 perish H3772 not H3808 through the famine H7458 .
|
|
37. And the word was good in Pharaoh's eyes, and in the eyes of all his servants.
|
37. And the thing H1697 was good H3190 in the eyes H5869 of Pharaoh H6547 , and in the eyes H5869 of all H3605 his servants H5650 .
|
|
38. And Pharaoh said to his servants, Can we find any man like this, in whom is the Spirit of God?
|
38. And Pharaoh H6547 said H559 unto H413 his servants H5650 , Can we find H4672 such a one as this H2088 is , a man H376 in whom H834 the Spirit H7307 of God H430 is ?
|
|
39. And Pharaoh said to Joseph, Since God has taught you all this, there is no one wise and intelligent like you.
|
39. And Pharaoh H6547 said H559 unto H413 Joseph H3130 , Forasmuch H310 as God H430 hath showed H3045 thee H853 all H3605 this H2063 , there is none H369 so discreet H995 and wise H2450 as thou H3644 art :
|
|
40. You shall be over my house, and at your mouth all my people shall kiss the hand. Only in respect to the throne will I be greater than you.
|
40. Thou H859 shalt be H1961 over H5921 my house H1004 , and according unto H5921 thy word H6310 shall all H3605 my people H5971 be ruled H5401 : only H7535 in the throne H3678 will I be greater H1431 than H4480 thou.
|
|
41. And Pharaoh said to Joseph, Behold, I have put you over all the land of Egypt.
|
41. And Pharaoh H6547 said H559 unto H413 Joseph H3130 , See H7200 , I have set H5414 thee over H5921 all H3605 the land H776 of Egypt H4714 .
|
|
42. And Pharaoh took off his ring from his hand and put it on the hand of Joseph; and he clothed him with fine linen robes, and put a golden chain on his neck.
|
42. And Pharaoh H6547 took off H5493 H853 his ring H2885 from H4480 H5921 his hand H3027 , and put H5414 it upon H5921 Joseph H3130 's hand H3027 , and arrayed H3847 him in vestures H899 of fine linen H8336 , and put H7760 a gold H2091 chain H7242 about H5921 his neck H6677 ;
|
|
43. And he caused him to ride in a chariot which was the second to him. And they cried before him, Bow the knee! And he put him over all the land of Egypt.
|
43. And he made him to ride H7392 in the second H4932 chariot H4818 which H834 he had ; and they cried H7121 before H6440 him , Bow the knee H86 : and he made H5414 him ruler over H5921 all H3605 the land H776 of Egypt H4714 .
|
|
44. And Pharaoh said to Joseph, I am Pharaoh, and without a word from you not a man shall lift his hand or his foot in all the land of Egypt.
|
44. And Pharaoh H6547 said H559 unto H413 Joseph H3130 , I H589 am Pharaoh H6547 , and without H1107 thee shall no H3808 man H376 lift up H7311 H853 his hand H3027 or foot H7272 in all H3605 the land H776 of Egypt H4714 .
|
|
45. And Pharaoh called Joseph by the name of Zaphnath-paaneah. And He gave him Asenath the daughter of Potipherah, priest of On, for a wife. And Joseph went out over the land of Egypt.
|
45. And Pharaoh H6547 called H7121 Joseph H3130 's name H8034 Zaphnath H6847 -paaneah ; and he gave H5414 him to wife H802 H853 Asenath H621 the daughter H1323 of Poti H6319 -pherah priest H3548 of On H204 . And Joseph H3130 went out H3318 over H5921 all the land H776 of Egypt H4714 .
|
|
46. And Joseph was a son of thirty years as he stood before Pharaoh king of Egypt. And Joseph went out from the face of Pharaoh and passed over in all the land of Egypt.
|
46. And Joseph H3130 was thirty H7970 years H8141 old H1121 when he stood H5975 before H6440 Pharaoh H6547 king H4428 of Egypt H4714 . And Joseph H3130 went out H3318 from the presence H4480 H6440 of Pharaoh H6547 , and went H5674 throughout all H3605 the land H776 of Egypt H4714 .
|
|
47. And the land produced by handfuls in the seven years of plenty.
|
47. And in the seven H7651 plenteous H7647 years H8141 the earth H776 brought forth H6213 by handfuls H7062 .
|
|
48. And he gathered all the food of the seven years which were in the land of Egypt, and he put food in the cities, the food of the field which is around each city he put into the middle of it.
|
48. And he gathered up H6908 H853 all H3605 the food H400 of the seven H7651 years H8141 , which H834 were H1961 in the land H776 of Egypt H4714 , and laid up H5414 the food H400 in the cities H5892 : the food H400 of the field H7704 , which H834 was round about H5439 every city H5892 , laid he up H5414 in the same H8432 .
|
|
49. And Joseph heaped up grain like the sand of the sea, exceedingly much, until he ceased to count it, because it was without number.
|
49. And Joseph H3130 gathered H6651 corn H1250 as the sand H2344 of the sea H3220 , very H3966 much H7235 , until H5704 he left H2308 numbering H5608 ; for H3588 it was without H369 number H4557 .
|
|
50. And two sons were born to Joseph before the year of the famine came in, whom Asenath the daughter of Potipherah, priest of On, bore to him.
|
50. And unto Joseph H3130 were born H3205 two H8147 sons H1121 before H2962 the years H8141 of famine H7458 came H935 , which H834 Asenath H621 the daughter H1323 of Poti H6319 -pherah priest H3548 of On H204 bore H3205 unto him.
|
|
51. And Joseph called the name of the first-born Manasseh; for he said, God has made me forget all my toil, and all the house of my father.
|
51. And Joseph H3130 called H7121 H853 the name H8034 of the firstborn H1060 Manasseh H4519 : For H3588 God H430 , said he , hath made me forget H5382 H853 all H3605 my toil H5999 , and all H3605 my father H1 's house H1004 .
|
|
52. And the name of the second he called Ephraim; for he said, God has made me fruitful in the land of my affliction.
|
52. And the name H8034 of the second H8145 called H7121 he Ephraim H669 : For H3588 God H430 hath caused me to be fruitful H6509 in the land H776 of my affliction H6040 .
|
|
53. And the seven years of plenty which were in the land of Egypt were ended.
|
53. And the seven H7651 years H8141 of plenteousness H7647 , that H834 was H1961 in the land H776 of Egypt H4714 , were ended H3615 .
|
|
54. And the seven years of famine began to come, according as Joseph had said. And the famine was in all lands, but in all the land of Egypt there was bread.
|
54. And the seven H7651 years H8141 of dearth H7458 began H2490 to come H935 , according as H834 Joseph H3130 had said H559 : and the dearth H7458 was H1961 in all H3605 lands H776 ; but in all H3605 the land H776 of Egypt H4714 there was H1961 bread H3899 .
|
|
55. And all the land of Egypt hungered and the people cried to Pharaoh for bread. And Pharaoh said to all Egypt, Go to Joseph; what he says to you, do.
|
55. And when all H3605 the land H776 of Egypt H4714 was famished H7456 , the people H5971 cried H6817 to H413 Pharaoh H6547 for bread H3899 : and Pharaoh H6547 said H559 unto all H3605 the Egyptians H4714 , Go H1980 unto H413 Joseph H3130 ; what H834 he saith H559 to you, do H6213 .
|
|
56. And the famine was on the face of all the land. And Joseph opened all which was in them, and sold to the Egyptians. And the famine was strong in the land of Egypt.
|
56. And the famine H7458 was H1961 over H5921 all H3605 the face H6440 of the earth H776 : And Joseph H3130 opened H6605 H853 all H3605 the storehouses H834 , and sold H7666 unto the Egyptians H4714 ; and the famine H7458 waxed sore H2388 in the land H776 of Egypt H4714 .
|
|
57. And all the earth came to Egypt to buy, to Joseph. For the famine was strong in all the earth.
|
57. And all H3605 countries H776 came H935 into Egypt H4714 to H413 Joseph H3130 for to buy H7666 corn ; because H3588 that the famine H7458 was so sore H2388 in all H3605 lands H776 .
