Genesis 41:17-57

41:17

And Pharaoh
<06547>

said
<01696> (8762)

unto Joseph
<03130>_,

In my dream
<02472>_,

behold, I stood
<05975> (8802)

upon the bank
<08193>

of the river
<02975>_:

41:18

And, behold, there came up
<05927> (8802)

out of the river
<02975>

seven
<07651>

kine
<06510>_,

fatfleshed
<01277> <01320>

and well
<03303>

favoured
<08389>_;

and they fed
<07462> (8799)

in a meadow
<0260>_:

41:19

And, behold, seven
<07651>

other
<0312>

kine
<06510>

came up
<05927> (8802)

after them
<0310>_,

poor
<01803>

and very
<03966>

ill
<07451>

favoured
<08389>

and leanfleshed
<07534> <01320>_,

such
<02007>

as I never
<03808>

saw
<07200> (8804)

in all the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>

for badness
<07455>_:

41:20

And the lean
<07534>

and the ill favoured
<07451>

kine
<06510>

did eat up
<0398> (8799)

the first
<07223>

seven
<07651>

fat
<01277>

kine
<06510>_:

41:21

And when they had eaten them up
<0935> (8799) <07130>_,

it could not be known
<03045> (8738)

that they had eaten them
<0935> (8804) <07130>_;

but they [were] still
<04758>

ill favoured
<07451>_,

as at the beginning
<08462>_.

So I awoke
<03364> (8799)_.

{eaten...: Heb. come to the inward parts of them}

41:22

And I saw
<07200> (8799)

in my dream
<02472>_,

and, behold, seven
<07651>

ears
<07641>

came up
<05927> (8802)

in one
<0259>

stalk
<07070>_,

full
<04392>

and good
<02896>_:

41:23

And, behold, seven
<07651>

ears
<07641>_,

withered
<06798> (8803)_,

thin
<01851>_,

[and] blasted
<07710> (8803)

with the east wind
<06921>_,

sprung up
<06779> (8802)

after them
<0310>_:

{withered: or, small}

41:24

And the thin
<01851>

ears
<07641>

devoured
<01104> (8799)

the seven
<07651>

good
<02896>

ears
<07641>_:

and I told
<0559> (8799)

[this] unto the magicians
<02748>_;

but [there was] none that could declare
<05046> (8688)

[it] to me.

41:25

And Joseph
<03130>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Pharaoh
<06547>_,

The dream
<02472>

of Pharaoh
<06547>

[is] one
<0259>_:

God
<0430>

hath shewed
<05046> (8689)

Pharaoh
<06547>

what he [is] about to do
<06213> (8802)_.

41:26

The seven
<07651>

good
<02896>

kine
<06510>

[are] seven
<07651>

years
<08141>_;

and the seven
<07651>

good
<02896>

ears
<07641>

[are] seven
<07651>

years
<08141>_:

the dream
<02472>

[is] one
<0259>_.

41:27

And the seven
<07651>

thin
<07534>

and ill favoured
<07451>

kine
<06510>

that came up
<05927> (8802)

after them
<0310>

[are] seven
<07651>

years
<08141>_;

and the seven
<07651>

empty
<07386>

ears
<07641>

blasted
<07710> (8803)

with the east wind
<06921>

shall be seven
<07651>

years
<08141>

of famine
<07458>_.

41:28

This [is] the thing
<01697>

which I have spoken
<01696> (8765)

unto Pharaoh
<06547>_:

What God
<0430>

[is] about to do
<06213> (8802)

he sheweth
<07200> (8689)

unto Pharaoh
<06547>_.

41:29

Behold, there come
<0935> (8802)

seven
<07651>

years
<08141>

of great
<01419>

plenty
<07647>

throughout all the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>_:

41:30

And there shall arise
<06965> (8804)

after them
<0310>

seven
<07651>

years
<08141>

of famine
<07458>_;

and all the plenty
<07647>

shall be forgotten
<07911> (8738)

in the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>_;

and the famine
<07458>

shall consume
<03615> (8765)

the land
<0776>_;

41:31

And the plenty
<07647>

shall not be known
<03045> (8735)

in the land
<0776>

by reason
<06440>

of that famine
<07458>

following
<0310> <03651>_;

for it [shall be] very
<03966>

grievous
<03515>_.

{grievous: Heb. heavy}

41:32

And for that the dream
<02472>

was doubled
<08138> (8736)

unto Pharaoh
<06547>

twice
<06471>_;

[it is] because the thing
<01697>

[is] established
<03559> (8737)

by
<05973>

God
<0430>_,

and God
<0430>

will shortly
<04116> (8764)

bring it to pass
<06213> (8800)_.

{established...: or, prepared of God}

41:33

Now therefore let Pharaoh
<06547>

look out
<07200> (8799)

a man
<0376>

discreet
<0995> (8737)

and wise
<02450>_,

and set
<07896> (8799)

him over the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>_.

41:34

Let Pharaoh
<06547>

do
<06213> (8799)

[this], and let him appoint
<06485> (8686)

officers
<06496>

over the land
<0776>_,

and take up the fifth part
<02567> (8765)

of the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>

in the seven
<07651>

plenteous
<07647>

years
<08141>_.

{officers: or, overseers}

41:35

And let them gather
<06908> (8799)

all the food
<0400>

of those good
<02896>

years
<08141>

that come
<0935> (8802)_,

and lay up
<06651> (8799)

corn
<01250>

under the hand
<03027>

of Pharaoh
<06547>_,

and let them keep
<08104> (8804)

food
<0400>

in the cities
<05892>_.

41:36

And that food
<0400>

shall be for store
<06487>

to the land
<0776>

against the seven
<07651>

years
<08141>

of famine
<07458>_,

which shall be in the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>_;

that the land
<0776>

perish
<03772> (8735)

not through the famine
<07458>_.

{perish...: Heb. be not cut off}

41:37

And the thing
<01697>

was good
<03190> (8799)

in the eyes
<05869>

of Pharaoh
<06547>_,

and in the eyes
<05869>

of all his servants
<05650>_.

41:38

And Pharaoh
<06547>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto his servants
<05650>_,

Can we find
<04672> (8799)

[such a one] as this
<02088>

[is], a man
<0376>

in whom
<0834>

the Spirit
<07307>

of God
<0430>

[is]?

41:39

And Pharaoh
<06547>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Joseph
<03130>_,

Forasmuch
<0310>

as God
<0430>

hath shewed
<03045> (8687)

thee all this, [there is] none so discreet
<0995> (8737)

and wise
<02450>

as thou [art]:

41:40

Thou shalt be
<01961> (8799)

over my house
<01004>_,

and according unto thy word
<06310>

shall all my people
<05971>

be ruled
<05401> (8799)_:

only in the throne
<03678>

will I be greater
<01431> (8799)

than thou. {be ruled: Heb. be armed, or, kiss}

41:41

And Pharaoh
<06547>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Joseph
<03130>_,

See
<07200> (8798)_,

I have set
<05414> (8804)

thee over all the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>_.

41:42

And Pharaoh
<06547>

took off
<05493> (8686)

his ring
<02885>

from his hand
<03027>_,

and put
<05414> (8799)

it upon Joseph's
<03130>

hand
<03027>_,

and arrayed
<03847> (8686)

him in vestures
<0899>

of fine linen
<08336>_,

and put
<07760> (8799)

a gold
<02091>

chain
<07242>

about his neck
<06677>_;

{fine...: or, silk}

41:43

And he made him to ride
<07392> (8686)

in the second
<04932>

chariot
<04818>

which he had; and they cried
<07121> (8799)

before him
<06440>_,

Bow the knee
<086>_:

and he made
<05414> (8800)

him [ruler] over all the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>_.

{Bow...: or, Tender father: Heb. Abrech}

41:44

And Pharaoh
<06547>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Joseph
<03130>_,

I [am] Pharaoh
<06547>_,

and without
<01107>

thee shall no man
<0376>

lift up
<07311> (8686)

his hand
<03027>

or foot
<07272>

in all the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>_.

41:45

And Pharaoh
<06547>

called
<07121> (8799)

Joseph's
<03130>

name
<08034>

Zaphnathpaaneah
<06847>_;

and he gave
<05414> (8799)

him to wife
<0802>

Asenath
<0621>

the daughter
<01323>

of Potipherah
<06319>

priest
<03548>

of On
<0204>_.

And Joseph
<03130>

went out
<03318> (8799)

over [all] the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>_.

{Zaphnathpaaneah: which in the Coptic signifies, A revealer of secrets, or, The man to whom secrets are revealed} {priest: or, prince}

41:46

And Joseph
<03130>

[was] thirty
<07970>

years
<08141>

old
<01121>

when he stood
<05975> (8800)

before
<06440>

Pharaoh
<06547>

king
<04428>

of Egypt
<04714>_.

And Joseph
<03130>

went out
<03318> (8799)

from the presence
<06440>

of Pharaoh
<06547>_,

and went throughout
<05674> (8799)

all the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>_.

41:47

And in the seven
<07651>

plenteous
<07647>

years
<08141>

the earth
<0776>

brought forth
<06213> (8799)

by handfuls
<07062>_.

41:48

And he gathered up
<06908> (8799)

all the food
<0400>

of the seven
<07651>

years
<08141>_,

which were in the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>_,

and laid up
<05414> (8799)

the food
<0400>

in the cities
<05892>_:

the food
<0400>

of the field
<07704>_,

which [was] round about
<05439>

every city
<05892>_,

laid he up
<05414> (8804)

in the same
<08432>_.

41:49

And Joseph
<03130>

gathered
<06651> (8799)

corn
<01250>

as the sand
<02344>

of the sea
<03220>_,

very
<03966>

much
<07235> (8687)_,

until he left
<02308> (8804)

numbering
<05608> (8800)_;

for [it was] without
<0369>

number
<04557>_.

41:50

And unto Joseph
<03130>

were born
<03205> (8795)

two
<08147>

sons
<01121>

before the years
<08141>

of famine
<07458>

came
<0935> (8799)_,

which Asenath
<0621>

the daughter
<01323>

of Potipherah
<06319>

priest
<03548>

of On
<0204>

bare
<03205> (8804)

unto him. {priest: or, prince}

41:51

And Joseph
<03130>

called
<07121> (8799)

the name
<08034>

of the firstborn
<01060>

Manasseh
<04519>_:

For God
<0430>_,

[said he], hath made me forget
<05382> (8765)

all my toil
<05999>_,

and all my father's
<01>

house
<01004>_.

{Manasseh: that is, Forgetting}

41:52

And the name
<08034>

of the second
<08145>

called
<07121> (8804)

he Ephraim
<0669>_:

For God
<0430>

hath caused me to be fruitful
<06509> (8689)

in the land
<0776>

of my affliction
<06040>_.

{Ephraim: that is, Fruitful}

41:53

And the seven
<07651>

years
<08141>

of plenteousness
<07647>_,

that was in the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>_,

were ended
<03615> (8799)_.

41:54

And the seven
<07651>

years
<08141>

of dearth
<07458>

began
<02490> (8686)

to come
<0935> (8800)_,

according as Joseph
<03130>

had said
<0559> (8804)_:

and the dearth
<07458>

was in all lands
<0776>_;

but in all the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>

there was bread
<03899>_.

41:55

And when all the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>

was famished
<07456> (8799)_,

the people
<05971>

cried
<06817> (8799)

to Pharaoh
<06547>

for bread
<03899>_:

and Pharaoh
<06547>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto all the Egyptians
<04714>_,

Go
<03212> (8798)

unto Joseph
<03130>_;

what he saith
<0559> (8799)

to you, do
<06213> (8799)_.

41:56

And the famine
<07458>

was over all the face
<06440>

of the earth
<0776>_:

And Joseph
<03130>

opened
<06605> (8799)

all the storehouses, and sold
<07666> (8799)

unto the Egyptians
<04714>_;

and the famine
<07458>

waxed sore
<02388> (8799)

in the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>_.

{all the storehouses: Heb. all wherein was}

41:57

And all countries
<0776>

came
<0935> (8804)

into Egypt
<04714>

to Joseph
<03130>

for to buy
<07666> (8800)

[corn]; because that the famine
<07458>

was [so] sore
<02388> (8804)

in all lands
<0776>_.
