1And it came to pass at the end of two full years, that Pharaoh dreamed: and, behold, he stood by the river.⇆ compare2And, behold, there came up out of the river seven well favored kine and fatfleshed; and they fed in a meadow.⇆ compare3And, behold, seven other kine came up after them out of the river, ill favored and leanfleshed; and stood by the other kine upon the brink of the river.⇆ compare4And the ill favored and leanfleshed kine did eat up the seven well favored and fat kine. So Pharaoh awoke.⇆ compare5And he slept and dreamed the second time: and, behold, seven ears of corn came up upon one stalk, rank and good.⇆ compare6And, behold, seven thin ears and blasted with the east wind sprung up after them.⇆ compare7And the seven thin ears devoured the seven rank and full ears. And Pharaoh awoke, and, behold, it was a dream.⇆ compare8And 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.⇆ compare9Then spoke the chief butler unto Pharaoh, saying, I do remember my faults this day:⇆ compare10Pharaoh was wroth with his servants, and put me in ward in the captain of the guard's house, both me and the chief baker:⇆ compare11And we dreamed a dream in one night, I and he; we dreamed each man according to the interpretation of his dream.⇆ compare12And there was there with us a young man, a 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.⇆ compare13And it came to pass, as he interpreted to us, so it was; me he restored unto mine office, and him he hanged.⇆ compare14Then 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.⇆ compare15And 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.⇆ compare16And Joseph answered Pharaoh, saying, It is not in me: God shall give Pharaoh an answer of peace.⇆ compare17And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, In my dream, behold, I stood upon the bank of the river:⇆ compare18And, behold, there came up out of the river seven kine, fatfleshed and well favored; and they fed in a meadow:⇆ compare19And, behold, seven other kine came up after them, poor and very ill favored and leanfleshed, such as I never saw in all the land of Egypt for badness:⇆ compare20And the lean and the ill favored kine did eat up the first seven fat kine:⇆ compare21And when they had eaten them up, it could not be known that they had eaten them; but they were still ill favored, as at the beginning. So I awoke.⇆ compare22And I saw in my dream, and, behold, seven ears came up in one stalk, full and good:⇆ compare23And, behold, seven ears, withered, thin, and blasted with the east wind, sprung up after them:⇆ compare24And 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.⇆ compare25And Joseph said unto Pharaoh, The dream of Pharaoh is one: God hath showed Pharaoh what he is about to do.⇆ compare26The seven good kine are seven years; and the seven good ears are seven years: the dream is one.⇆ compare27And the seven thin and ill favored 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.⇆ compare28This is the thing which I have spoken unto Pharaoh: What God is about to do he showeth unto Pharaoh.⇆ compare29Behold, there come seven years of great plenty throughout all the land of Egypt:⇆ compare30And 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;⇆ compare31And the plenty shall not be known in the land by reason of that famine following; for it shall be very grievous.⇆ compare32And 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.⇆ compare33Now therefore let Pharaoh look out a man discreet and wise, and set him over the land of Egypt.⇆ compare34Let 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.⇆ compare35And 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.⇆ compare36And that food shall be for store to the land against the seven years of famine, which shall be in the land of Egypt; that the land perish not through the famine.⇆ compare37And the thing was good in the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of all his servants.⇆ compare38And Pharaoh said unto his servants, Can we find such a one as this is, a man in whom the Spirit of God is?⇆ compare39And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, Forasmuch as God hath showed thee all this, there is none so discreet and wise as thou art:⇆ compare40Thou shalt be over my house, and according unto thy word shall all my people be ruled: only in the throne will I be greater than thou.⇆ compare41And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, See, I have set thee over all the land of Egypt.⇆ compare42And Pharaoh took off his ring from his hand, and put it upon Joseph's hand, and arrayed him in vestures of fine linen, and put a gold chain about his neck;⇆ compare43And he made him to ride in the second chariot which he had; and they cried before him, Bow the knee: and he made him ruler over all the land of Egypt.⇆ compare44And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, I am Pharaoh, and without thee shall no man lift up his hand or foot in all the land of Egypt.⇆ compare45And Pharaoh called Joseph's name Zaphnath-paaneah; and he gave him to wife Asenath the daughter of Poti-pherah priest of On. And Joseph went out over all the land of Egypt.⇆ compare46And Joseph was thirty years old when he stood before Pharaoh king of Egypt. And Joseph went out from the presence of Pharaoh, and went throughout all the land of Egypt.⇆ compare47And in the seven plenteous years the earth brought forth by handfuls.⇆ compare48And 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.⇆ compare49And Joseph gathered corn as the sand of the sea, very much, until he left numbering; for it was without number.⇆ compare50And unto Joseph were born two sons before the years of famine came, which Asenath the daughter of Poti-pherah priest of On bore unto him.⇆ compare51And Joseph called the name of the firstborn Manasseh: For God, said he, hath made me forget all my toil, and all my father's house.⇆ compare52And the name of the second called he Ephraim: For God hath caused me to be fruitful in the land of my affliction.⇆ compare53And the seven years of plenteousness, that was in the land of Egypt, were ended.⇆ compare54And the seven years of dearth began to come, according as Joseph had said: and the dearth was in all lands; but in all the land of Egypt there was bread.⇆ compare55And when all the land of Egypt was famished, the people cried to Pharaoh for bread: and Pharaoh said unto all the Egyptians, Go unto Joseph; what he saith to you, do.⇆ compare56And the famine was over all the face of the earth: And Joseph opened all the storehouses, and sold unto the Egyptians; and the famine waxed sore in the land of Egypt.⇆ compare57And all countries came into Egypt to Joseph for to buy corn; because that the famine was so sore in all lands.⇆ compare
