1	Joseph Interprets the King's Dreams Two years later the king of Egypt dreamed he was standing beside the Nile River.	And it came to pass at the end of two full years, that Pharaoh dreamed: and, behold, he stood by the river.
2	Suddenly, seven fat, healthy cows came up from the river and started eating grass along the bank.	And, behold, there came up out of the river seven well favoured kine and fatfleshed; and they fed in a meadow.
3	Then seven ugly, skinny cows came up out of the river and	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.
4	ate the fat, healthy cows. When this happened, the king woke up.	And the ill favoured and leanfleshed kine did eat up the seven well favoured and fat kine. So Pharaoh awoke.
5	The king went back to sleep and had another dream. This time seven full heads of grain were growing on a single stalk.	And he slept and dreamed the second time: and, behold, seven ears of corn came up upon one stalk, rank and good.
6	Later, seven other heads of grain appeared, but they were thin and scorched by a wind from the desert.	And, behold, seven thin ears and blasted with the east wind sprung up after them.
7	The thin heads of grain swallowed the seven full heads. Again the king woke up, and it had only been a dream.	And the seven thin ears devoured the seven rank and full ears. And Pharaoh awoke, and, behold, it was a dream.
8	The next morning the king was upset. So he called in his magicians and wise men and told them what he had dreamed. None of them could tell him what the dreams meant.	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.
9	The king's personal servant said: Now I remember what I was supposed to do.	Then spake the chief butler unto Pharaoh, saying, I do remember my faults this day:
10	When you were angry with me and your chief cook, you threw us both in jail in the house of the captain of the guard.	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:
11	One night we both had dreams, and each dream had a different meaning.	And we dreamed a dream in one night, I and he; we dreamed each man according to the interpretation of his dream.
12	A young Hebrew, who was a servant of the captain of the guard, was there with us at the time. When we told him our dreams, he explained what each of them meant,	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.
13	and everything happened just as he said it would. I got my job back, and the cook was put to death.	And it came to pass, as he interpreted to us, so it was; me he restored unto mine office, and him he hanged.
14	The king sent for Joseph, who was quickly brought out of jail. He shaved, changed his clothes, and went to the king.	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.
15	The king said to him, “I had a dream, yet no one can explain what it means. I am told that you can interpret dreams.”	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.
16	“Your Majesty,” Joseph answered, “I can't do it myself, but God can give a good meaning to your dreams.”	And Joseph answered Pharaoh, saying, It is not in me: God shall give Pharaoh an answer of peace.
17	The king told Joseph: I dreamed I was standing on the bank of the Nile River.	And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, In my dream, behold, I stood upon the bank of the river:
18	I saw seven fat, healthy cows come up out of the river, and they began feeding on the grass.	And, behold, there came up out of the river seven kine, fatfleshed and well favoured; and they fed in a meadow:
19	Next, seven skinny, bony cows came up out of the river. I have never seen such terrible looking cows anywhere in Egypt.	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:
20	The skinny cows ate the fat ones.	And the lean and the ill favoured kine did eat up the first seven fat kine:
21	But you couldn't tell it, because these skinny cows were just as skinny as they were before. At once, I woke up.	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.
22	I also dreamed that I saw seven heads of grain growing on one stalk. The heads were full and ripe.	And I saw in my dream, and, behold, seven ears came up in one stalk, full and good:
23	Then seven other heads of grain came up. They were thin and scorched by a wind from the desert.	And, behold, seven ears, withered, thin, and blasted with the east wind, sprung up after them:
24	These heads of grain swallowed the full ones. I told my dreams to the magicians, but none of them could tell me the meaning of the dreams.	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.
25	Joseph replied: Your Majesty, both of your dreams mean the same thing, and in them God has shown what he is going to do.	And Joseph said unto Pharaoh, The dream of Pharaoh is one: God hath shewed Pharaoh what he is about to do.
26	The seven good cows stand for seven years, and so do the seven good heads of grain.	The seven good kine are seven years; and the seven good ears are seven years: the dream is one.
27	The seven skinny, ugly cows that came up later also stand for seven years, as do the seven bad heads of grain that were scorched by the desert wind. The dreams mean there will be seven years when there won't be enough grain.	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.
28	It is just as I said—God has shown what he intends to do.	This is the thing which I have spoken unto Pharaoh: What God is about to do he sheweth unto Pharaoh.
29	For seven years Egypt will have more than enough grain,	Behold, there come seven years of great plenty throughout all the land of Egypt:
30	but that will be followed by seven years when there won't be enough. The good years of plenty will be forgotten, and everywhere in Egypt people will be starving.	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;
31	The famine will be so bad that no one will remember that once there had been plenty.	And the plenty shall not be known in the land by reason of that famine following; for it shall be very grievous.
32	God has given you two dreams to let you know that he has definitely decided to do this and that he will do it soon.	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.
33	Your Majesty, you should find someone who is wise and will know what to do, so that you can put him in charge of all Egypt.	Now therefore let Pharaoh look out a man discreet and wise, and set him over the land of Egypt.
34	Then appoint some other officials to collect one fifth of every crop harvested in Egypt during the seven years when there is plenty.	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.
35	Give them the power to collect the grain during those good years and to store it in your cities.	And 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.
36	It can be stored until it is needed during the seven years when there won't be enough grain in Egypt. This will keep the country from being destroyed because of the lack of food.	And 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.
37	Joseph Is Made Governor over Egypt The king and his officials liked this plan.	And the thing was good in the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of all his servants.
38	So the king said to them, “Who could possibly handle this better than Joseph? After all, the Spirit of God is with him.”	And Pharaoh said unto his servants, Can we find such a one as this is, a man in whom the Spirit of God is?
39	The king told Joseph, “God is the one who has shown you these things. No one else is as wise as you are or knows as much as you do.	And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, Forasmuch as God hath shewed thee all this, there is none so discreet and wise as thou art:
40	I'm putting you in charge of my palace, and everybody will have to obey you. No one will be over you except me.	Thou 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.
41	You are now governor of all Egypt!”	And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, See, I have set thee over all the land of Egypt.
42	Then the king took off his royal ring and put it on Joseph's finger. He gave him fine clothes to wear and placed a gold chain around his neck.	And 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;
43	He also let him ride in the chariot next to his own, and people shouted, “Make way for Joseph!” So Joseph was governor of Egypt.	And 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.
44	The king told Joseph, “Although I'm king, no one in Egypt is to do anything without your permission.”	And 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.
45	He gave Joseph the Egyptian name Zaphenath Paneah. And he let him marry Asenath, the daughter of Potiphera, a priest in the city of Heliopolis. Joseph traveled all over Egypt.	And 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.
46	Joseph was 30 when the king made him governor, and he went everywhere for the king.	And 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.
47	For seven years there were big harvests of grain.	And in the seven plenteous years the earth brought forth by handfuls.
48	Joseph collected and stored up the extra grain in the cities of Egypt near the fields where it was harvested.	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.
49	In fact, there was so much grain that they stopped keeping record, because it was like counting the grains of sand along the beach.	And Joseph gathered corn as the sand of the sea, very much, until he left numbering; for it was without number.
50	Joseph and his wife had two sons before the famine began.	And unto Joseph were born two sons before the years of famine came, which Asenath the daughter of Poti–pherah priest of On bare unto him.
51	Their first son was named Manasseh, which means, “God has let me forget all my troubles and my family back home.”	And 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.
52	His second son was named Ephraim, which means “God has made me a success in the land where I suffered.”	And the name of the second called he Ephraim: For God hath caused me to be fruitful in the land of my affliction.
53	Egypt's seven years of plenty came to an end,	And the seven years of plenteousness, that was in the land of Egypt, were ended.
54	and the seven years of famine began, just as Joseph had said. There was not enough food in other countries, but all over Egypt there was plenty.	And 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.
55	When the famine finally struck Egypt, the people asked the king for food, but he said, “Go to Joseph and do what he tells you to do.”	And 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.
56	The famine became bad everywhere in Egypt, so Joseph opened the storehouses and sold the grain to the Egyptians.	And 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.
57	People from all over the world came to Egypt to buy grain, because the famine was so severe in their countries.	And all countries came into Egypt to Joseph for to buy corn; because that the famine was so sore in all lands.
