• Genesis 41:5

    And he slept and dreamed the second time: and, behold, seven ears of corn came up upon one stalk, ranka and good.

  • Genesis 41:6

    And, behold, seven thin ears and blasted with the east wind sprung up after them.

  • Genesis 41:7

    And the seven thin ears devoured the seven rank and full ears. And Pharaoh awoke, and, behold, it was a dream.

  • 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.

  • Genesis 41:9

    Then spake the chief butler unto Pharaoh, saying, I do remember my faults this day:

  • 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:

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Genesis 41:16

    And Joseph answered Pharaoh, saying, It is not in me: God shall give Pharaoh an answer of peace.

  • Genesis 41:17

    And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, In my dream, behold, I stood upon the bank of the river:

  • Genesis 41:18

    And, behold, there came up out of the river seven kine, fatfleshed and well favoured; and they fed in a meadow:

  • 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:

  • Genesis 41:20

    And the lean and the ill favoured kine did eat up the first seven fat kine:

  • 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.

  • Genesis 41:22

    And I saw in my dream, and, behold, seven ears came up in one stalk, full and good:

  • Genesis 41:23

    And, behold, seven ears, withered,b thin, and blasted with the east wind, sprung up after them:

  • 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.

  • Genesis 41:25

    And Joseph said unto Pharaoh, The dream of Pharaoh is one: God hath shewed Pharaoh what he is about to do.

  • Genesis 41:26

    The seven good kine are seven years; and the seven good ears are seven years: the dream is one.

  • 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.

  • Genesis 41:28

    This is the thing which I have spoken unto Pharaoh: What God is about to do he sheweth unto Pharaoh.

  • Genesis 41:29

    Behold, there come seven years of great plenty throughout all the land of Egypt:

  • 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;

  • 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.c

  • Genesis 41:32

    And for that the dream was doubled unto Pharaoh twice; it is because the thing is establishedd by God, and God will shortly bring it to pass.
