53When the sevenH7651 yearsH8141 of abundanceH7647 in the landH776 of EgyptH4714 came to an endH3615, 54the sevenH7651 yearsH8141 of famineH7458H935 beganH2490, just asH834 JosephH3130 had saidH559. And although there wasH1961 famineH7458 in everyH3605 countryH776, there wasH1961 foodH3899 throughoutH3605 the landH776 of EgyptH4714. 55When extreme hungerH7456 came to allH3605 the landH776 of EgyptH4714 and the peopleH5971 cried outH6817 toH413 PharaohH6547 for foodH3899, he toldH559 allH3605 the EgyptiansH4713, “GoH1980 toH413 JosephH3130 and doH6213 whateverH834 he tellsH559 you.”
