Genesis 41:8-24
8And it came to pass in the morningH1242 that his spiritH7307 was troubledH6470; and he sentH7971 and calledH7121 for all the magiciansH2748 of EgyptH4714, and all the wiseH2450 men thereof: and PharaohH6547 told them his dreamH2472; but there was none that could interpretH6622 them unto PharaohH6547.
9Then spake the chiefH8269 butler unto PharaohH6547, sayingH559, I do rememberH2142 my faults this dayH3117: 10PharaohH6547 was wroth with his servantsH5650, and putH5414 me in ward in the houseH1004 of the captain of the guard, me and the chiefH8269 bakerH644: 11and we dreamedH2492 a dreamH2472 in oneH259 nightH3915, I and he; we dreamedH2492 each manH376 according to the interpretationH6623 of his dreamH2472. 12And there was with us there a youngH5288 manH376, a HebrewH5680, servantH5650 to the captain of the guard; and we told him, and he interpretedH6622 to us our dreamsH2472; to each manH376 according to his dreamH2472 he did interpretH6622. 13And it came to pass, as he interpretedH6622 to us, so it wasH1961; me he restoredH7725 unto mine office, and him he hangedH8518.
14Then PharaohH6547 sentH7971 and calledH7121 JosephH3130, and they broughtH935 him hastily out of the dungeon: and he shavedH1548 himself, and changedH2498 his raiment, and cameH935 in unto PharaohH6547. 15And PharaohH6547 saidH559 unto JosephH3130, I have dreamedH2492 a dreamH2472, and there is none that can interpretH6622 it: and I have heardH8085 sayH559 of thee, that when thou hearest a dreamH2472 thou canst interpretH6622 it. 16And JosephH3130 answered PharaohH6547, sayingH559, It is not in me: GodH430 will give PharaohH6547 an answerH6030 of peaceH7965. 17And PharaohH6547 spake unto JosephH3130, In my dreamH2472, behold, I stoodH5975 upon the brink of the riverH2975: 18and, behold, there cameH5927 up out of the riverH2975 sevenH7651 kine, fat-fleshed and well-favored: and they fed in the reed-grass: 19and, behold, sevenH7651 otherH312 kine cameH5927 up after them, poor and veryH3966 ill-favored and lean-fleshed, such as I never sawH7200 in all the landH776 of EgyptH4714 for badness: 20and the lean and ill-favored kine did eatH398 up the firstH7223 sevenH7651 fatH1277 kine: 21and when they had eaten them up, it could not be knownH3045 that they had eaten them; but they were still ill-favored, as at the beginning. So I awokeH3364. 22And I sawH7200 in my dreamH2472, and, behold, sevenH7651 earsH7641 cameH5927 up upon oneH259 stalkH7070, fullH4392 and goodH2896: 23and, behold, sevenH7651 earsH7641, withered, thinH1851, and blasted with the eastH6921 windH6921, sprung up after them: 24and the thinH1851 earsH7641 swallowedH1104 up the sevenH7651 goodH2896 earsH7641: and I toldH5046 it unto the magiciansH2748; but there was none that could declareH5046 it to me.
